129: Chapter 129 is indeed melodramatic.

[ Hey, they really are bullying an honest person! ]

[ However, she should regret it very soon. After all, the person she is bullying is... ]

After all what? What on earth is it "after all"?

Lin Xiao's inner voice stopped at such a critical point, which simply made Lin Ran so anxious she felt like clawing at her heart and liver!

Especially seeing Lin Xiao's gloating expression, it made her even more anxious.

In the room, the man raised his head and suddenly smiled, "Xiaoxin, I haven't said whose brother had an accident yet."

The actress remained indifferent. While taking the bag handed over by her assistant, she said disdainfully, "Whose brother could it be? It must be that idiot brother of yours! My brother is so well-behaved at school, he wouldn't..."

But before she could finish her sentence, her pupils constricted instantly.

Because she saw over a dozen missed calls displayed on the phone in her bag.

Only three or four of them were from the man, while the rest were all from her brother.

Could it be that her brother really had an accident?

"What happened to my brother?" the actress asked angrily.

The man just sighed lightly and still said nothing.

The actress suppressed her anger and called her brother's phone, but no one answered on the other end.

She finally couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the man by the collar, and roared, "Tell me quickly, what happened to my brother!"

The man calmly pushed the actress's hand away and said indifferently, "School bullying. He beat a classmate and injured them, sending them to the Hospital for emergency treatment."

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" The actress was both angry and anxious, continuing to call her brother incessantly.

"Didn't I?" The man chuckled, sounding like a question, but even more like self-derision.

The actress seemed to recall her own words just now. Although she was in the wrong, her attitude did not soften, and she continued to curse.

She didn't notice at all that the man's attitude towards her had already changed.

Unable to get through on the phone, the actress took her anger out on the man, "My brother used to be so well-behaved. It only became like this after you entered our family. Did you, this good-for-nothing, do this on purpose?"

The man seemed to think of something and gave a mocking smile, "Then why do you think I would do this on purpose?"

"Well, of course it's because..." The actress stopped here, clearly losing her confidence, and immediately changed the subject, "In any case, you must rush to the Hospital now and kneel to apologize to that student's family. As long as they don't forgive you, you are not allowed to get up!"

The man took a deep breath and quietly looked at the actress.

"What are you looking at me for? Do you want to ruin my career? Do you want the whole family to starve? If you weren't such a good-for-nothing, would I have to work so hard every day?" The actress roared.

The man said indifferently, "The Hospital said that the student's injuries are very serious, and I'm afraid it won't be that easy to get forgiveness."

The actress frowned, "Not forgive? Then go to jail for my brother, or pay with your life for him!"

After a few sentences, the man's expression grew worse and worse.

He took a deep breath and asked indifferently, "Xiaoxin, have you never loved me?"

"What do you think?" The actress gave a cold snort, her meaning already very clear.

At this time, the actor on the side suddenly spoke up, "Axin, I have some connections at your brother's school, I should be able to help you resolve this."

"Really?" Hearing this, the actress's eyes lit up instantly.

Gone was her previous irritability, and her attitude took a 180-degree turn, "Brother Zhao, can you really help me?"

"Small matter, but..." The actor glanced at the man with disdain.

"Ah, don't worry, Brother Zhao. As long as you can help me, I will divorce him immediately and follow you from now on!" The actress's face beamed with joy.

"I didn't say I wanted to marry you." The actor chuckled.

"It doesn't matter. As long as I can be with you, Brother Zhao, I don't need a title!" The actress looked flattered.

She didn't care about marriage at all; she always only looked at immediate benefits.

Back then, she had coveted the man's good looks and chose to marry him, but now she was long since bored of him.

And the actor's status in the industry was much higher than hers. As long as she followed him, she would definitely have plenty of resources in the future.

Compared to that ridiculous relationship, she would of course choose money!

As if afraid that the actor might go back on his word, she immediately had her assistant bring over the divorce agreement that had already been prepared and threw it in front of the man.

"Sign it. You leave with nothing, after all, the money in the house was all earned by me."

"..." The man seemed to be completely heartbroken, without the slightest hesitation, he picked up the pen and signed his name directly.

Outside the room. "This... is just too stifling, right?" Lin Ran couldn't bear to watch anymore.

But after all, this was someone else's family business, and as an outsider, it wasn't appropriate for her to say much, so she could only silently complain.

[ It really is stifling... To be able to endure for so long, tsk tsk tsk, he can even be called a Ninja Turtle! ]

[ For the sake of so-called love, he has suffered quite a lot over these years. ]

[ Since "marrying" into the woman's family, he has been humiliated by the actress's entire family, especially that mother-in-law and brother-in-law, who have never looked at him straight. Various humiliations have been endless; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they treated him like a dog! ]

Hearing Lin Xiao's inner voice, a thought suddenly popped into Lin Ran's mind.

Combined with Lin Xiao's inner voice just now, this man's identity might not be ordinary.

And then going to be a live-in son-in-law, being humiliated by the woman's family.

How does this plot feel a bit familiar? Could the next step be...

"Look over there quickly, so many cars!" "Wow, are they all Maybachs?" "Which big shot has arrived?"

Listening to the discussions coming from outside the Film Crew, Lin Ran turned to look.

She saw ten black Maybachs driving in a line, with a Cullinan interspersed in the middle.

Before long, more than a dozen men in black suits got out, lining up neatly in a long row.

The lead man in a suit strode to the outside of the filming location and shouted powerfully, "Young Master! The Master has sent us to take you home!"

In an instant, the surrounding area exploded into chaos.

"Wow, wow, wow, who are they here to pick up? Such a big spectacle!"

"I haven't heard of any wealthy young masters in this Film Crew either."

"That's right, I remember these stars' families are all quite average, they all climbed to their current positions through their own efforts."

Just under the gaze of everyone, the man who had just signed the divorce agreement walked out slowly.

In an instant, the discussions all stopped. The entire Film Crew was so quiet that a needle drop could be heard.

Only Lin Ran silently covered her face, countless complaints surging wildly in her brain.

It really is such a cliché plot... But why would there be such a plot intrusion?

Does this world really have such a stifled live-in son-in-law? Are they going to shout "Respectfully welcome the Dragon King's return" in a moment?

A perfectly good wealthy young master, is it necessary to use such brain-dead methods to slap faces? Is it necessary to drink the mother-in-law's foot-washing water and live in a dog kennel?

Wait, it seems there isn't that part of the plot... But it's about the same! In short, it's just infuriating!
