Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 432: Chapter 432 Annoyed into Rage_1

”Ah?” Lin Weiwei looked astonished at her own aunt, who wore a face of loving kindness.

She had never imagined that her aunt had invited her over just to tell her these things—that her boyfriend was unsuitable and that she should be introduced to a new man!

This was not just absurd; it was preposterous!

Not to mention that Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t her boyfriend, but even if he were, did they really intend to break them up?

”What are you talking about?!” Lin Weiwei furrowed her brows and stared at Lin Lu, asking.

Lin Lu spoke very clearly, and Lin Weiwei heard her clearly as well, but she still couldn’t believe that her aunt, the epitome of kindness and grace, whom she had always looked up to as a role model, would ever say such things.

”Child, child! Don’t get so agitated!” Lin Lu hurriedly said, ”I know that you might not be able to accept this at once! But your aunt is absolutely doing this for your own good!”

”Yes, you with a poor boy, the rest of your life is going to be fraught with hardships! We can’t just watch you jump into a pit of fire,” Meng Haishan chimed in urgently, ”You young people always talk about love, but can love be eaten as food! If you marry a poor skin, it’s not just you who will suffer; what about your parents? They’re getting older, having raised you through hardship—shouldn’t they be enjoying their later years now? And what about your children? Do you also want them to live a life of poverty? Weiwei, you have to see the reality clearly. The Yin family, that’s a rich and powerful family! Marrying into it would be the fortune of several lifetimes; you need to seize this opportunity!”

Meng Haishan had his speech ready and launched it all at once, not believing that it wouldn’t shake Lin Weiwei.

Lin Weiwei might hold on to her love, but when it came to her parents, her children, Meng Haishan refused to believe that she would remain steadfast.

And indeed, Lin Weiwei fell silent.

Meng Haishan felt a burst of joy and gave Lin Lu a look, signaling her to turn up the heat.

Lin Lu nodded and said to Lin Weiwei, ”Your uncle is crude in speech, but not in reasoning. Child! If you and that Bai Xiaosheng had years of relationship between you, your aunt would have no place to interfere. But you two have only been together for a few days, and what you’ve felt for each other may just be a momentary flutter of the heart. Once the passion fades, you’ll likely find yourselves quarreling over trivial matters everyday—that’s not worth it! Your aunt has been through this; I won’t deceive you!”

Lin Weiwei looked down, the hanging hair hiding her face and keeping her expression unseen. However, since she hadn’t fervently objected, that proved she was taking it in.

Lin Lu felt reassured; her niece had always listened to her since she was a child.

She believed that this time would be no exception.

”Aunt, how did you come up with the idea of introducing me to Yin Donglei?” Lin Weiwei suddenly asked. Her voice was soft, unruffled, yet for some reason, Lin Lu felt there was a chill to it.

”If I’m not mistaken, it was Yin Donglei who asked you to talk to me about this, right? Yin Donglei would not have said this to you directly... He must have first talked to my cousin. My cousin dislikes me so much; how could she ever introduce her boyfriend’s younger brother to me! I think there must be a reason she couldn’t refuse, something that could threaten her despite viewing him as a future brother-in-law, convincing her to talk to you.”

Lin Weiwei lifted her head and looked at Lin Lu calmly, ”Am I right?”

Lin Weiwei’s voice was cool and clear, disentangling the truth through deduction.

Her gaze grew colder, and there was a distance in her aloofness that suddenly made Lin Lu shiver.

Meng Haishan looked at Lin Weiwei in disbelief. When had the country girl he always looked down upon become so sharp, so frightening—in her quiet tranquility, analyzing it all?

”Weiwei, listen to me...” Lin Lu felt her mouth go dry, sensing the soft, warm small hand in her palm now seeming cold as ice.

”There’s no need.” Lin Weiwei withdrew her hand.

Lin Lu tried to hold on to the small hand, but it was determinedly pulled away.

Lin Weiwei stood up.

”My parents often admonish me, saying that you, my aunt, are a benefactor to our family, and that I should always treat you with respect and affection.”

”They also said that you, Aunt, are an educated person, a person of integrity, and told me to learn from you,”

”They said that even if one is to be a servant all their life, endure hardships and toil away, when working it’s okay to bend the back, but while walking, one must always puff up their chest. Being poor is not scary; what is scary is losing one’s integrity out of fear of poverty!”

”Aunt, do you think what they said is right?”

Lin Weiwei threw these questions out.

Lin Lu was left speechless, at a loss for how to answer.

”Today is my uncle’s birthday. I came, to see you all. I bought a piece of clothing for five thousand yuan. My parents have never worn clothes as expensive as this. Someone said it was fake, and my uncle believed it. I’m not articulate, and I can’t defend myself. However, if I brought a fake item to pass off as real, it would prove that I, Lin Weiwei, am a woman who covets vanity. So, I’d like you to see that I, a woman who covets vanity, also have integrity.” Lin Weiwei stood up straight and walked out.

Lin Lu’s face turned an ugly shade, tinged with shame.

Meng Haishan panicked, ”Stop, Lin Weiwei!”

Lin Weiwei paused in her steps.

”Lin Weiwei, didn’t your parents teach you to be grateful, to remember our kindness! Well, now your chance to show gratitude has arrived!” Meng Haishan said urgently. ”You’re right! Whether Meng Bing can marry into the Yin Family depends on you. Can you bear to see your cousin’s happiness destroyed because of you? I’m begging you, just... pretend to date Yin Donglei. We can cover it up with the Bai family, and if you agree, we can find him a good job...”

”Uncle!” Lin Weiwei shouted sternly.

Meng Haishan was interrupted.

”I’ve always wanted to say something to you,” Lin Weiwei said, staring at him earnestly.

”What?” Meng Haishan was startled.

”I look down on you!” After saying that, Lin Weiwei turned without looking back and walked away.

Meng Haishan shook with rage, and Lin Lu’s face alternated between pale and flushed. The couple remained silent, watching Lin Weiwei stride away proudly.

The door to the guest bathroom was suddenly kicked open.

Meng Bing, with a face full of anger, stormed out, chest heaving with fury, teeth clenched, but she only had one sentence for Lin Weiwei, ”That bitch!”

Lin Weiwei left the guest room, her face expressionless as she walked.

But tears streamed down uncontrollably. She turned into the bathroom, locked the door behind her, covered her face, and began crying silently.

She felt deeply wronged.

It was unclear how much time had passed before Lin Weiwei managed to compose herself. Wiping away her tears, she quietly touched up her makeup in front of the mirror.

After redoing her makeup, Lin Weiwei looked at her reflection and felt an overwhelming sense of fatigue.

”Aunt, I really couldn’t imagine you would treat me this way!”

”From now on, I, Lin Weiwei, will not step half a foot into your home!”

Lin Weiwei turned around, opened the door, and looked for Bai Xiaosheng to leave with her.

What she didn’t know was that in the living room, Bai Xiaosheng was experiencing something far more extraordinary than she had!
