“Oh, is it because I blacklisted you?”
Lin Yin kept saying things like Mo Shenbai was a gigolo, and Xu Youyou was so angry that she ended up blacklisting him. As the saying went, ‘Out of sight, out of mind’.
“You’re aware of how much my grandmother dotes on you, right?” Lin Yin asked as he narrowed his eyes slightly. He paused briefly before he continued to say, “Recently, due to our matters and my parents, she’s not in a good mood, and her health is also affected. She’s always talking about you.”
Xu Youyou pursed her lips and remained silent. It was rather strange. Everyone in the Lin family, except for Old Madam Lin, disliked her. Old Madam Lin treated her like a granddaughter. Hence, it was not surprising to hear that Old Madam Lin was unhappy with what had happened. It was indeed time for her to visit Old Madam Lin, but…
Finally, she sniffled again and said in a muffled voice, “I’ve caught a cold. It’s not suitable for me to visit her. I’ll visit her once I recover.”
An expression of concern appeared on Lin Yin’s face when he heard that she had caught a cold. He asked, “Do you want me to send you to the hospital?”
Xu Youyou shook her head immediately. “No need. I can go on my own.”
Lin Yin frowned. “What about him? Does he not care about you after you’re married?”
Xu Youyou really wanted to say it was none of his business. However, before she could do so, she sneezed again. She raised her hand to rub her nose.
It was at this time that Lin Yin caught the ring on her finger. His expression darkened as he said mockingly, “Although you’re only acting, you even bought a ring. How very professional.”
Xu Youyou frowned slightly. She could not help but scold, “You’re batshit crazy! Why would I deliberately buy a ring and fake a marriage because of you? You really think too highly of yourself!”
Lin Yin was stunned. “What?”
‘Batshit crazy?’
Xu Youyou’s voice was soft but fierce as she said, “Who do you think you are?”
In short, Xu Youyou meant that Lin Yin was not that important for her to expend so much effort.
Lin Yin: “…”
Lin Yin was still in a daze when Xu Youyou saw Cang Ming driving over. Without looking back, she hurried to get into the car. Then, she urged him to drive faster.
When Lin Yin regained his senses, the car had already pulled away. He was angry and annoyed, and there was also a sense of loss. Ever since the wedding was called off, they would quarrel every time they met. She was no longer gentle and obedient like before.
…
As Cang Ming drove, he looked at Xu Youyou through the rearview mirror.
Xu Youyou’s head was lowered, and she looked like a wilted flower. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, “Madam, is he pestering you again? Do you need me to deal with him?”
Xu Youyou looked at the side of Cang Ming’s face and asked, shocked, “You… How are you planning to deal with him? The society is governed by laws. Don’t do anything rash!”
She did not want Mo Shenbai to be implicated.
“…”
Cang Ming’s eyebrows twitched as he explained, “What I mean is to speak to him and warn him.”
“Oh.” Xu Youyou sighed in relief upon hearing this. Then, she said, “Forget it. There’s no use in warning him.”
Xu Youyou was very familiar with Lin Yin’s character. He had been pampered since he was young and was very self-centered. He would not listen to another person at all. It would only backfire if Cang Ming tried to warn him.
When the car pulled to a stop at the entrance of Moon Pavilion, Xu Youyou ran into Mo Shenbai as soon as she got out of the car.
The duo looked at each other silently.
The autumn wind blew, stirring up the yellow leaves beneath the parasol tree at the side of the road.
Xu Youyou’s hair fluttered in the wind when she suddenly sneezed.
Achoo!
