1732 Do You Really Think That I’m Blind And Brainless?
“I’ll talk about it when Lu Heting comes over.” Old Master He nodded.
If He Shihui was only disappointed for a short while just now, she was now in great despair!
Su Bei?
How many days had Su Bei been back in the He family?
She had been wandering outside before, so she didn’t know anything about the He family. She had never been filial to the two elders and didn’t know anything about the entire family. Why would Grandpa give the family business to Su Bei?
Was it because she married Lu Heting?
Why?
Then what about all her hard work over the years?
After a while, He Shihui composed herself and knocked on the door.
“Grandpa, Zhiqin, you’ve been looking at paintings for so long. Are you thirsty? Have a rest and drink some tea.” The capable and calm smile on He Shihui’s face erased all traces of her previous despair.
“Alright, thank you.” Old Master He smiled. “Let’s sit down and admire the paintings.”
…
That night, Xu Zhiqin stayed in the He family’s mansion.
Wei Yuxin came over early in the morning with a container of food.
“Yuxin, why are you here so early?” Lin Xiruo asked calmly.
“Aunt, I went to Shande Hall and bought some of Grandma He’s favorite pastries. They’re soft, so they’re very suitable for her. I also bought some other pastries for everyone to try,” Wei Yuxin said with a smile.
“You’ve gone through so much trouble. What do you want to eat? I’ll get the kitchen to cook it. It’s rare for you to come all the way here,” Lin Xiruo said with a smile.
“It’s no trouble at all. It’s rare for Grandma He to like an establishment. I just happened to pass by. I had nothing to do, so I bought the pastries.” Wei Yuxin was also very polite.
Old Madam He walked downstairs and said with a smile, “It’s really rare that there’s a place like Shande Hall in the United States. They’re able to make such authentic S Country pastries. Usually, there’s a limited supply every day. You might not be able to eat them even if you want to. Yuxin, you’re really considerate. Why don’t you stay for breakfast?”
“Okay, thank you,” Wei Yuxin replied with a smile.
Lin Xiruo did not say anything and narrowed her eyes.
In the past, when her health was not too good and she was not in good spirits, Old Madam He had some intentions of letting He Jiang marry another woman.
The Wei family had also tried to get the daughter of a relative of the Wei family to take on this role.
Now, the Wei family thought that Lin Xiruo had forgotten about those things back then. How could Lin Xiruo not remember?
In the early years, Wei Yuxin was not this obedient in front of her. As she was sick, her mind was not too clear. Even so, she had seen Wei Yuxin’s true colors a few times.
Now, she wanted to marry her son?
Lin Xiruo felt that the Wei family was too simple-minded. Did they really think that she was blind and brainless?
Her daughter-in-law had to be someone with a good character and a kind heart. She had to have a good relationship with her son. She did not want a daughter-in-law who would keep her son on a tight leash.
Seeing Lin Xiruo’s indifferent expression, Wei Yuxin smiled and said, “Aunt, you don’t mind, do you?”
“Of course not. What are you talking about? It’s not the first day you’re here to play.” Lin Xiruo smiled. After all, the Wei family’s business was a consortium comparable to He Consortium. The relationship between the two families could not collapse just like that. Otherwise, He Jiang would be the one in trouble.
How could Lin Xiruo cause trouble for her husband?
Her words were half-truths, so Wei Yuxin stayed.
A moment later, Old Master He, He Jiang, and Su Bei came downstairs.
Wei Yuxin felt a little uneasy when she did not see He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin.
If it weren’t for the fact that she wanted to see He Xuyan, why would she come here so early in the morning? Why did she have to wait in line for so long at Shande Hall?
Although it was her driver who lined up, she had still spent a lot of her energy.
She felt a little regretful. The last time she went to S Country, the method she used on He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin was a little too extreme. If she had been calmer and gotten along with He Xuyan bit by bit, she wouldn’t have needed to use that method to suppress Xu Zhiqin. Perhaps everything would be much better now.
However, the mistake had been made. It was useless to regret it.
Wei Yuxin could only think of ways to remedy the situation.
“Grandma He, where’s Xuyan?” she asked.
“That’s right. Where’s Xuyan?” Old Madam He also found it a little strange.
Lin Xiruo smiled and said, “Mom, are you asking about Xuyan? He woke up early in the morning and said that he would take Zhiqin to a famous breakfast shop nearby. At the same time, he and Zhiqin also got someone to pack some breakfast for all of us.”
Old Madam He nodded. He Xuyan’s temperament was not as cold as before.
Previously, he was indifferent to everything. It was worrying.
It was good for him to go out more in the morning.
Wei Yuxin was not in a good mood. She bit her lip slightly. She had spent so much effort, but she would not let He Xuyan see it. What was the meaning of all of this, then?
“Sit down and have breakfast,” Lin Xiruo said. “Su Bei, your brother said that he’s bringing Zhiqin to meet a few friends tonight. You should go with him. You can familiarize yourself with the situation here.”
“Okay,” Su Bei replied.
Wei Yuxin took the initiative to say, “I see. Then I’ll go too. Many of Xuyan’s friends are also my friends. I haven’t seen them in a long time. By the way, Su Bei, I caused you some trouble in the mall that day. I’ll accompany you to buy some things today. Just treat it as me compensating you.”
“Sure.” Since Su Bei had nothing to do at the He family’s house, she was happy to help her brother and sister-in-law solve some problems.
Besides, she could ask Wei Yuxin about the disputes between the various families here. It would be more convenient.
When Lin Xiruo saw her daughter’s expression, she knew what she was thinking. Knowing that Su Bei was capable, she was not too worried. She only smiled and reminded Su Bei, “If anything happens, call me.”
“I know, Mom.”
“In that case, let’s call Zhiqin too,” Wei Yuxin said. “I feel quite bad after what happened in the mall that day.”
“Zhiqin is naturally with her fiancé. Of course, it’s good if she has time to go. If she doesn’t, it’s understandable as her fiancé is more important,” Lin Xiruo said lightly.
Wei Yuxin blushed and clenched her fists tightly. In the past, Lin Xiruo was always sick and didn’t like to care about these things.
Everyone said that she would be fine once Su Bei was found. Now, it seemed that it was true.
Not only had she recovered, but her attitude and words were also sharp.
She was indeed annoying.
However, Wei Yuxin did not dare to hate her. All those years, Lin Xiruo was sick and crazy but He Jiang had never left her. There were countless women who wanted to take the opportunity to climb up the social ladder, but they were all rejected by He Jiang.
Now that Lin Xiruo had regained her senses, she was probably even more difficult to deal with.
