10: Chapter 10: Lin Chuge, the female protagonist of a tragic novel
Soon, Lin Xiao's inner voice rang out.
"The scumbag Young Master Bai Feng only pretended to be with Eldest Sister for the sake of the Lin family's power. Later, not only did he swindle her out of money and take advantage of her, but he also stole company secrets, causing both parents to die tragically and leaving the company facing various crises."
"Eldest Sister also happened to be pregnant, so Young Master Bai Feng took the opportunity to completely hollow out the company and transfer the equity."
"Moreover, Young Master Bai Feng had long been having an affair with Eldest Sister's best friend. The best friend even lied to the scumbag, saying she needed a kidney transplant. Young Master Bai Feng didn't care about the lives of Eldest Sister or the child in her womb, forcibly removing Eldest Sister's kidney and causing her to die of anger on the operating table."
"That best friend was truly ruthless. She didn't even spare Eldest Sister after she died, digging out her heart as well."
"Oh, come to think of it, Lin Yu is even more ruthless. For the sake of some petty gains, he helped Young Master Bai Feng pursue Eldest Sister. Sigh."
...
The expressions of the three members of the Lin family were extremely complex.
Upon hearing about the cruel treatment their daughter would endure, Lin Qingshan and Su Xiumei couldn't help but tremble with rage.
However, they seemed to overlook the news of their own deaths in Lin Xiao's inner voice, thinking only that as long as they were alive, they would never let their daughter be bullied like that!
It was Su Xiumei who calmed down first, gently squeezing Lin Qingshan's hand.
She signaled to him that these were currently just Lin Xiao's inner thoughts and could not be proven true or false.
Lin Qingshan also realized this and silently adjusted his breathing.
Lin Chuge frowned, half-doubting and half-believing it.
She wanted Lin Xiao to elaborate further, but after waiting for a long time, Lin Xiao remained very quiet, seemingly unwilling to continue.
In order to hear more of his inner thoughts, Lin Chuge made a decision.
"By the way, Dad, Mom, if you are free tonight, I'll bring Bai Feng back for dinner. It's been a long time since you've seen him."
"Good, good."
This arrangement hit exactly what The Lin Couple had in mind.
They also wanted to know the truth of the matter.
But just at this moment, Lin Xiao's inner voice rang out again.
"[That scumbag won't be able to come tonight. His hemorrhoids have burst, he's bleeding non-stop, and he's currently lying on his stomach in the anorectal department of the Hospital.]"
"[Hee hee!]"
Hearing the schadenfreude in that final "hee hee," Lin Chuge couldn't help but rub her forehead.
It was precisely because she had just received a call from Young Master Bai Feng, saying he was too busy to get away and hoping she could help deliver a document, that she was in this situation.
Could the reason he couldn't get away really be because of hemorrhoids?
Lin Chuge walked out quickly.
She first went to another company to retrieve the document, as she had previously agreed with Young Master Bai Feng.
When she arrived at Young Master Bai Feng's office to deliver it, she discovered that he was indeed not there.
Only his assistant was there, thanking her nervously, "Miss Lin, thank you so much, otherwise..."
Lin Chuge scanned the office and asked nonchalantly, "Where is your President Bai? Didn't he say he was busy? Why isn't he in the company?"
"Ah, yes, President Bai had to go out for a last-minute business engagement and really couldn't get away."
The assistant wiped the sweat from his forehead, explaining somewhat stiffly.
Lin Chuge nodded lightly and did not press further.
She would soon be able to verify the truth of Lin Xiao's inner voice.
After leaving the Bai Corporation, she headed straight to the Hospital.
Sure enough, in the VIP ward of the anorectal department, she saw that familiar figure.
Young Master Bai Feng was lying on the bed on his stomach, looking extremely disheveled.
It was precisely because he was lying on his stomach that he did not notice her standing at the door.
Lin Chuge's expression had already turned very ugly.
She didn't care about Young Master Bai Feng hiding his hemorrhoids from her; rather, it was that she had confirmed this time that Lin Xiao's inner voice was true.
In other words, she really would be harmed terribly by this scumbag in the future!
Lin Chuge narrowed her eyes.
Her scalp was itchy; her newly sprouted "love brain" had just withered away so abruptly.
...
In the evening, Lin Chuge indeed returned alone.
She did not mention anything about Young Master Bai Feng again.
Others might not have understood, but Lin Qingshan and Su Xiumei understood immediately.
All of this had likely been guessed correctly by Lin Xiao!
In order not to make their daughter feel awkward, they also didn't say a word about Young Master Bai Feng.
Seeing the many bags Lin Chuge was carrying, they asked with a smile, "Chuge, did you go shopping today?"
"Yes, I just went for a stroll since I had nothing to do."
Lin Chuge took an exquisite little box out of a bag and handed it to A-Xiao, who was focused on watching TV, "A-Xiao, I bought you a gift. See if you like it."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.
Had they misheard?
Yesterday, Lin Chuge had berated Lin Xiao for being from the countryside and only having money in his eyes.
How was she giving him a gift today?
Looking at the logo on the box, it was clearly very valuable.
Lin Xiao turned around, looking curious, and pointed at himself, asking, "For me?"
"Yes."
Lin Chuge did not say much more.
Lin Xiao revealed a brilliant smile and happily took the box.
It was a watch.
Looking at the understated yet luxurious watch face, and the inlaid diamonds and sapphires, Lin Xiao was greatly shocked.
Although he didn't know much about watches, it looked like it must cost hundreds of thousands, right?
Thinking about how the Lin family would go bankrupt later, he naturally wanted to save up some private money before that happened.
But when things are abnormal, there must be a demon at play; he still felt uneasy.
"Eldest Sister, this watch is too expensive. I can't accept it!"
After hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head.
"It's only a million; it's nothing. If there is anything else you like in the future, you can tell me, and I'll buy you something even better."
Lin Chuge's tone was still not overly enthusiastic, but it was clear that she had already begun to acknowledge this younger brother from the countryside.
Lin Yu came down from upstairs and saw exactly this scene.
He didn't want to lose his composure in front of his family again, so he suppressed the anger in his heart and asked nonchalantly, "Eldest Sister is really good to Brother Lin Xiao. I've always wanted this watch too."
After speaking, he blinked at Lin Chuge, hoping to use this pitiful appearance to attract more of Eldest Sister's concern.
But unexpectedly, Lin Chuge just glanced at him coldly and said indifferently, "If you want it, buy it yourself."
This was the first time Lin Chuge had been so cold to Lin Yu.
She didn't want to be like this, but thinking about how Lin Yu had introduced Young Master Bai Feng to her for profit, she really didn't want to bother with this former "good younger brother" anymore.
Lin Yu felt a tightness in his chest from the retort, feeling even more stifled.
But in front of so many people, he couldn't lash out.
His eyes darted around, and he suddenly thought of something.
"By the way, today Mom and Dad only bought Brother Lin Xiao a house and land, but they haven't bought him a car yet, right? How about I take him to look at cars tomorrow? I happen to know a bit about that."
