Fu Qin could not believe it. Even if she had the intention, she would not be so desperate as to seduce Lin Zhaonan, who could be her son.
âYour dad and I are not what you think we are. We are just friends. Weâre only friends. Are you angry?â
What was this black-hearted person pretending to be? Lin Gantang was disgusted. âI heard you say this before my mumâs hospital bed. I donât need to trouble you to repeat it. It makes people gag.â
âLooks like we wonât have a chance to talk calmly in the future?â Fu Qinâs expression changed again.
âOf course we do. Iâm not like you. Iâm more magnanimous. When youâre a hundred years old, Iâll calmly come to your grave to burn some joss paper. It wonât be a problem for me to say a few words.â
Fu Qinâs face changed colors; it was stunning.
âLin Mingzhuo! Listen to what your daughter said!â Fu Qin shouted furiously upstairs.
âMy dad isnât deaf. Canât he hear the commotion in the living room? If he wanted to help you, he would have come down earlier, okay? My dad wanted to preserve your dignity. He avoided you and didnât personally chase you out. Yet, you think heâs indulging you?â Lin Gantang mocked.
âDonât I know more about your dad and me than you do?â Fu Qin was very confident. âI said that I like The Book of Songs. Your dad said that he wanted to give it to me. Heâs probably looking for it in the study now.â
âIs that so?â Lin Gantang also shouted. âDad! Your daughter is being bullied!â
Fu Qinâs expression instantly turned constipated. She was bullying her? How could she have the nerve to say that!
Lin Mingzhuo, who hadnât made any movements, heard the shout and ran out anxiously. âWhatâs going on? Whatâs going on? Whoâs bullying my daughter?â
Lin Mingzhuo walked over in a pair of casual home shoes. He didnât even have time to put it on properly.
Fu Qin took a look and saw that Lin Mingzhuo was empty-handed. He didnât have any book with him.
âWhy are you still here?â Mr. Lin was puzzled when he saw Fu Qin. âSo it was you who was making a ruckus just now?â
âDidnât you go up to get the book for me?â Fu Qin gasped.
âOh, right. The Book of Songs, right?â Mr. Lin remembered. âI was so busy that I forgot. Isnât Gantang here? Ask her to get a new book from the bookstore and give it to you. The one in the study is left behind by my wife. Itâs not convenient for you to have it.â
Lin Gantang chuckled at Fu Qin.
Fu Qin felt embarrassed. She did not forget to take the opportunity to turn on the waterworks. âThe book is a small matter. I waited for you for such a long time for nothing just now and you didnât even let me know. Because of that, I made Gantang angry and disturbed you.â
âWhy did you make her angry?â Mr. Lin was puzzled. âSheâs just a child. Why are you angering her at your age?â
Fu Qin was so irate that she was almost out of breath. Child? Sheâs already so old, yet sheâs still called a child!
âDad, I donât like her.â The âchildâ, Lin Gantang, said in a childâs language according to her identity. âThe moment I entered the house, I saw that she wanted to smash the family photo. My mother and I only took one family photo. How can I not be angry?â
Mr. Lin frowned and looked at Fu Qin.
âI didnât. I just wanted to pick it up and take a look!â Fu Qin hurriedly defended herself.
Lin Gantang said, aggrieved, âWhy would I lie? For what purpose would I wrongly accuse you? I didnât even tell my dad that youâve taken a fancy to my brother. Why are you so fierce?â
Mr. Linâs expression changed immediately.
âYouâre talking nonsense!â Fu Qin was outraged, her eyes glaring. âLin Mingzhuo! Are you going to just let her slander my reputation?â
âDad, sheâs so fierceâ¦â Lin Gantang hid behind Mr. Lin and tugged at the corner of her fatherâs clothes weakly..
