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.
“Your dad and I are not what you think we are. We are just friends. We’re only friends. Are you angry?”
What was this black-hearted person pretending to be? Lin Gantang was disgusted. “I heard you say this before my mum’s hospital bed. I don’t need to trouble you to repeat it. It makes people gag.”
“Looks like we won’t have a chance to talk calmly in the future?” Fu Qin’s expression changed again.
“Of course we do. I’m not like you. I’m more magnanimous. When you’re a hundred years old, I’ll calmly come to your grave to burn some joss paper. It won’t be a problem for me to say a few words.”
Fu Qin’s face changed colors; it was stunning.
“Lin Mingzhuo! Listen to what your daughter said!” Fu Qin shouted furiously upstairs.
“My dad isn’t deaf. Can’t 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 didn’t personally chase you out. Yet, you think he’s indulging you?” Lin Gantang mocked.
“Don’t I know more about your dad and me than you do?” Fu Qin was very confident. “I said that I like The Book of Songs. Your dad said that he wanted to give it to me. He’s probably looking for it in the study now.”
“Is that so?” Lin Gantang also shouted. “Dad! Your daughter is being bullied!”
Fu Qin’s expression instantly turned constipated. She was bullying her? How could she have the nerve to say that!
Lin Mingzhuo, who hadn’t made any movements, heard the shout and ran out anxiously. “What’s going on? What’s going on? Who’s bullying my daughter?”
Lin Mingzhuo walked over in a pair of casual home shoes. He didn’t even have time to put it on properly.
Fu Qin took a look and saw that Lin Mingzhuo was empty-handed. He didn’t have any book with him.
“Why are you still here?” Mr. Lin was puzzled when he saw Fu Qin. “So it was you who was making a ruckus just now?”
“Didn’t you go up to get the book for me?” Fu Qin gasped.
“Oh, right. The Book of Songs, right?” Mr. Lin remembered. “I was so busy that I forgot. Isn’t 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. It’s not convenient for you to have it.”
Lin Gantang chuckled at Fu Qin.
Fu Qin felt embarrassed. She did not forget to take the opportunity to turn on the waterworks. “The book is a small matter. I waited for you for such a long time for nothing just now and you didn’t even let me know. Because of that, I made Gantang angry and disturbed you.”
“Why did you make her angry?” Mr. Lin was puzzled. “She’s just a child. Why are you angering her at your age?”
Fu Qin was so irate that she was almost out of breath. Child? She’s already so old, yet she’s still called a child!
“Dad, I don’t like her.” The ‘child’, Lin Gantang, said in a child’s language according to her identity. “The 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?”
Mr. Lin frowned and looked at Fu Qin.
“I didn’t. I just wanted to pick it up and take a look!” Fu Qin hurriedly defended herself.
Lin Gantang said, aggrieved, “Why would I lie? For what purpose would I wrongly accuse you? I didn’t even tell my dad that you’ve taken a fancy to my brother. Why are you so fierce?”
Mr. Lin’s expression changed immediately.
“You’re talking nonsense!” Fu Qin was outraged, her eyes glaring. “Lin Mingzhuo! Are you going to just let her slander my reputation?”
“Dad, she’s so fierce…” Lin Gantang hid behind Mr. Lin and tugged at the corner of her father’s clothes weakly..
