Chapter 111 Helping You With All My Might
Lin Aoxue felt like she was suffocating. Madam Wei’s words seemed to be choking her, making it completely impossible to breathe, and her brain was so oxygen-deprived that she didn’t know how to think.
If possible, she really wanted to let out a scream, but that would be too out of character for her.
Lin Fuzhang, sitting nearby, could hardly bear listening anymore. He put down his chopsticks and said to his chattering wife: “Old woman, what’s wrong with you today? Our daughter doesn’t even have a boyfriend yet, and you’re going on about having children or not? That’s something for the distant future. Why are you worrying so much?”
“Look at you, look at you! You don’t know how to care about your daughter, but I do! I’m her mother, and my feelings are different from yours as her father. Let me tell you, having children after your thirties comes with many dangers, and it’s not good for the child either. I’m hoping to hold a grandchild soon. Aoxue, you must fulfill your mother’s wish!”
Lin Aoxue frantically stirred the millet porridge in her bowl, not knowing how to respond. She wanted to turn and leave right now, but for some reason, she couldn’t stand up.
The half bowl of millet porridge had been stirred into a whirlpool by Lin Aoxue.
That damn Su Rui, why did he send her a text message so early in the morning?
Making her mother chatter endlessly until her ears nearly grew calluses. The culprit behind all this was Su Rui’s text message. No, to be precise, the culprit was that jerk Su Rui himself, Lin Aoxue thought angrily.
Besides, if he wanted to send a text, fine, but why with such an arrogant tone? “Coming to pick you up” – who does he think he is? Is he the CEO or am I? Why should I pick him up? On what grounds should I pick him up?
Lin Aoxue really wanted to slap Su Rui’s smug face a few times and then spit a pound of saliva on him.
Wait, what’s happening? Spitting? How did the Lin family’s young lady become so unrefined?
“Look how annoyed you are, look how impatient you’ve become. Don’t blame your mother for saying this, but you need to change your personality. If you’re always this cold with ‘stay away’ written all over your face, how will you ever find a boyfriend?”
Madam Wei was probably cooped up at home for too long with no one to talk to, or perhaps she was just too concerned about her daughter’s lifelong happiness. Her mouth was like a machine gun – once started, it couldn’t be stopped, and she seemed to have brought several boxes of ammunition.
“Tell me quickly, daughter, who sent you that text message?”
“Mom, it was Su Rui.” Lin Aoxue finally surrendered. She was now praying that her mother would shut her mouth soon.
“Can you please stop talking now? I’ve told you it was Su Rui who texted me. Is that enough?”
As soon as Lin Aoxue said this, the old lady’s face lit up with joy: “Oh, it’s Su Rui! I guessed it. My goodness, that boy is so polite, contacting you early in the morning. See? You hold an important place in his heart! Let me tell you, Su Rui is really an excellent young man. That night when he helped us check for bugs in our house, he was sweating profusely and worked diligently for several hours. If he wasn’t interested in our Aoxue, would he be so dedicated? I think there’s potential here. Such an excellent and young man is rare to find. You must seize this opportunity…”
Lin Aoxue rested her elbows on the table, covered her ears, and stared blankly at the millet porridge on the table, truly not knowing what to do. When had her mother become so unbearable? This wasn’t just unbearable – it was unbearable to the extreme!
“Aoxue, honestly, Su Rui is really a fine young man. You’re beautiful and he’s handsome – you’re truly a perfect match. You know, many people have tried to introduce potential matches to you before, but I never approved of any of them. Those sons of officials and businessmen, compared to our Aoxue, were miles apart. But as soon as I met Su Rui, even after just a few interactions, I felt this young man was exceptional. He’s not only kind but also capable. As a potential mother-in-law looking at a son-in-law, the more I see, the more I like him!”
A mother-in-law looking at a son-in-law, liking him more and more!
Hearing this, Lin Aoxue truly wanted to surrender completely! Su Rui hadn’t done anything yet, but her mother had already positioned herself as a mother-in-law! She had completely defected to the enemy camp!
After hearing this, Lin Fuzhang coughed heavily twice. To be honest, although he didn’t know Su Rui’s true identity and background, he knew that Su Rui was definitely not an ordinary person. When even his well-connected old friend dared not mention Su Rui’s true identity, he knew this young man must be extraordinary, perhaps holding a position so high that people dared not mention or touch upon it!
But his wife’s gossipy nature was really giving him a headache. Lin Fuzhang shook his head, at a loss for words. As for how far his daughter would go in the future and what kind of boyfriend she would find, this old man couldn’t control it anymore. Since his daughter had grown up, he should let her fly on her own.
“Mom, please stop talking. This is all impossible.” Lin Aoxue said helplessly. For some reason, her appetite was quite good today, and she wanted to drink more millet porridge, but Wei Shuling’s endless nagging made her lose the desire to even drink the porridge.
“Oh, my daughter, how can you not understand this principle after growing up? Why is it impossible? Don’t you know yet? Just like that advertising slogan, ‘Everything is possible!’ I really approve of this Su Rui. Look, he’s young, handsome, healthy, and capable. Where can you find such a young man nowadays? Most importantly, I feel he’s good to you, you know? As parents, we just want to find someone who cherishes our daughter, loves her, and won’t let her suffer…”
Lin Aoxue really felt like she was going crazy. The feeling right now was that her mother and Su Rui suddenly seemed to be alike. To use an inappropriate description, it was as if Su Rui’s annoying nature had infected her mother.
“Aoxue, don’t be impatient. Really, your mother is doing this for your own good. Otherwise, who would care about your lifelong happiness if they weren’t related to you?”
Lin Fuzhang coughed twice: “Your mother is right, Aoxue. You should listen.”
Lin Aoxue looked up and said coldly: “Can you let me finish this bowl of millet porridge?”
“Yes, yes, yes, drink quickly, or it will get cold.” Wei Shuling hurriedly said.
However, just as Lin Aoxue picked up her bowl, she heard her mother start again: “Oh, I suddenly remembered something. Aoxue, tell me quickly, what did Su Rui say in his text message? Tell your mother. After all, I’ve been through this before and can give you some advice.”
Lin Aoxue’s patience finally broke. She simply stood up, took out a tissue, wiped her mouth, and said: “If you’re so curious, why don’t you go date him yourself?”
With that, Lin Aoxue turned and walked out.
Madam Wei immediately became displeased: “Oh my, look at this girl, she got upset while we were talking. Hehe, I could date him if you want, he’s more handsome than your father and in better shape, but would your father agree? If your father agrees, I’ll go find him right now…”
Before Wei Shuling could finish, there was a dull “thud.” Looking back, she saw that Lin Fuzhang’s forehead had made intimate contact with the table!
Lin Fuzhang was extremely depressed. How had his wife become increasingly outrageous? She wasn’t like this when she was young. Could this be a sign of menopause? This was the only thought in Lin Fuzhang’s mind before he passed out.
Lin Aoxue left without finishing breakfast. Just before getting into the car, she heard her mother’s voice: “Aoxue, tell mom quickly, what exactly did Su Rui text you? If you don’t tell me, I won’t have a good day.”
Lin Aoxue, who was about to step into the car, pulled her foot back, looked at her mother at the door, and said coldly: “If I don’t tell you, will you really not have a good day?”
“Yes, of course!” Wei Shuling looked expectant.
“Then I will never tell you.”
Sitting in the car, the driver Wang Yuan asked: “Young Miss, where are we going? Directly to the company?”
“Yes, directly to the company,” Lin Aoxue said, but after saying it, she hesitated: “First, let’s go to the Oriental Pearl Hotel to pick up Su Rui.”
This annoying guy really doesn’t let her have peace of mind. Thinking of this, Lin Aoxue took out her phone, looked at Su Rui’s arrogant text message, and felt angry all over. This annoying guy had caused her to have no peace early in the morning, which was really unbearable. So Lin Aoxue opened the message and replied to Su Rui: “I haven’t had breakfast yet.”
On the other end of the phone, Su Rui looked at the text message, raised his eyebrows, and said: “Hey, you little girl, picking me up is clearly your duty. What does it matter to me if you haven’t had breakfast? It’s better if you starve and get thinner, flatten those big breasts of yours. Let’s see if you can still walk with that swaying motion.”
If Lin Aoxue heard this sentence, she probably would never have anything to do with Su Rui again in this lifetime. However, Su Rui was also quite mischievous. After complaining, he still went out to buy breakfast for Lin Aoxue.
Who told her to be beautiful while he was just a nobody? Beautiful women always have many privileges, and this is one of them – having men buy them breakfast.
Su Rui went out to a nearby breakfast shop and ordered two fried dough sticks, a cup of savory tofu pudding, two tea eggs, and two meat buns.
Watching the shop owner prepare Su Rui’s breakfast, Su Rui’s lips curled into a slight, obviously perceptible mischievous smile. Yes, this guy was definitely setting a trap for Lin Aoxue.
Hehe, Lin family girl, let’s see if I can’t teach you a lesson this time. I’ll make you down-to-earth. Don’t take my words lightly. Remember, your brother has been tirelessly helping you!
