Xiaofeng listened to Luo Yuzhu’s words, her lips curving into a faint smile, "After all this time, we’re finally getting to the point."
She gently took a sip of water, moistening her throat, "The Lin Family doesn’t like me, and I don’t have a say in front of Grandma Lin. Even if I wanted to support you, I couldn’t."
"Of course, you can," Luo Yuzhu saw that Xiaofeng’s attitude was quite good and no longer rebellious, thinking to herself that motherhood really changes a person, her temper had improved a lot since she became pregnant.
In the early stages of pregnancy, it was understandable to be temperamental, but now that the pregnancy was stable, her improved temper was also true, "Right now, mother has something she needs help with, and you can definitely help. If this works out, not only will Jianguo definitely not divorce me, but my status in the Lin Family will surely not be what it is now."
After Luo Yuzhu finished speaking, she gazed intently at Xiaofeng, as if trying to see something in Xiaofeng’s eyes.
Xiaofeng’s lips twitched slightly, her smile elusive, "What kind of help could I possibly give to the Lin Family? Mr. Lin is an office worker, and I’m just a businessman, what could I possibly help him with?"
Luo Yuzhu glanced at Mei Sanying, seeing that she had no intention of leaving, she smilingly said, "Auntie, why don’t you go to sleep first? I need to talk to my daughter for a while."
Mei Sanying chuckled, "Xiaofeng calls me auntie, and you’re her elder, shouldn’t you call me sister-in-law?"
If it weren’t for Xianghe’s sake, it would have been possible for Xiaofeng to even call her grandma.
Of course, Luo Yuzhu wouldn’t argue with Mei Sanying over a title, "Sister-in-law, you should go to bed first. Xiaofeng and I might talk for quite a while, it’s not good for you to sleep late at your age."
Mei Sanying knew that Luo Yuzhu was trying to get rid of her, and standing up, she said to Xiaofeng, "Girl, I’m going to sleep now. The heart is separated by the belly, you just listen to some things."
No matter how nice Luo Yuzhu’s words seemed, Mei Sanying did feel there was an off taste to them.
"Auntie, go to sleep," Xiaofeng smiled, even the auntie noticed that Luo Yuzhu’s words were not heartfelt towards her; her words this evening seemed to have moved only herself.
Once Mei Sanying returned to her room, Luo Yuzhu sat closer to Xiaofeng, her voice much lower than before, "Xiaofeng, I know that Ye Cheng saved Wu Yifan’s life. I’ve heard that the Wu Family gave Ye Cheng a lot of money and a shopping mall to express their gratitude. Is that true?"
Xiaofeng blinked, "Did Lin Jing tell you that?"
"It’s not a secret anyway. Just think about who that shopping mall belongs to, to Director Dong. There’s nothing strange about me knowing."
"Oh, that," Xiaofeng’s voice drew out, "didn’t you know that mall is now mine?"
"I know," Luo Yuzhu certainly knew, as Lin Jing had told her right after she got back, "Mom just wants to ask if the mall was a gift from the Wu Family to Ye Cheng and then Ye Cheng gave it to you."
That question was easy to answer. She just had to say yes or no.
"But I promised Ye Cheng I wouldn’t tell anyone," Xiaofeng said with a look of difficulty, "If this were to get out, it could cause some unnecessary trouble for Ye Cheng."
Upon hearing this, Luo Yuzhu thought for sure it was the Wu Family behind it, "Just tell mom and keep it to yourself, don’t tell others. Tell me secretly, is that shopping mall a gift from the Wu Family to you?"
"What are you inquiring about this for? Unless you think that this information could help Mr. Lin get promoted?" Xiaofeng gasped suddenly, covering her mouth in surprise, "I saw Wu Yifan today; he said Mr. Wu had an issue. I heard he was reported. The reporter... it wasn’t Mr. Lin, was it?"
Luo Yuzhu’s face became uncomfortable upon hearing this, "Don’t you make wild guesses. Your Uncle Lin is fair and just, incorruptible. How could he do such underhanded things?"
"If it wasn’t him, why are you asking about who gave the shopping mall?"
"You’re just a girl, you’ve never worked, you don’t understand the twists and turns of a bureaucratic career," Luo Yuzhu didn’t want to explain further to Xiaofeng, "Just tell mom directly about the mall. Don’t worry, if you help mom this time, she will remember your kindness for a lifetime. If mom secures her position in the Lin Family, she will surely have your Uncle Lin take good care of you."
"Oh, I see. So long as I admit that the mall was a gift from the Wu Family, then you can make a contribution in the Lin Family, and from that point on, both Grandma Lin and Mr. Lin will look at you in a new light, right?"
