C13 He Threatens Us
Lin Nuanxi ignored him and left. Luckily, she had some money in her bag when she came out, which was enough for her to take a taxi back.
She originally wanted to squeeze on the bus, but there was no bus station here. It was not easy to get a bus back, but it actually cost her more than 30 yuan. She hadn't even gotten home yet. She looked at the money in her bag. She was really afraid that it wouldn't be enough to get home. So she got off the car halfway and decided to walk back.
Fortunately, the journey wasn't particularly far, so it wouldn't be a problem to walk back. It just so happened that she had time to think about everything that had happened in the past few days.
It was just that it took some time, and by the time she leisurely walked back home, it had already been an hour. Exhausted, she took out her key and opened the door. The moment she opened the door, she saw her mother smiling with a cup of tea in her hand.
Lin Nuanxi was stunned. How long had it been since she saw her mother's smile? She was just about to call her mother and ask her what was going on. Suddenly, she was stunned because she saw a person who should not have appeared in the living room.
"Why are you here?" Lin Nuanxi shouted angrily and walked in with big steps. She stared at Ho Wenjun who was sitting in the living room and her face turned pale.
"Nuanxi, why are you talking to a guest?" Lin's mother stared at her unhappily and scolded. She then looked at Ho Wenjun with a smile. She explained, "Wenjun, don't mind her. She was not like this before. It was because too many things have happened recently that her temper was a little bad."
"Auntie, don't worry. I won't mind. I have seen her when she has a bad temper." Ho Wenjun said with a smile, but his eyes were looking at Lin Nuanxi.
"That's good, that's good. I am happy to see the two of you being good. The marriage is decided. You also know the situation in our family recently, so I will have to trouble you with everything." Lin's mother said with a smile.
Lin Nuanxi only felt a loud bang, like a clap of thunder exploding, making her unable to breathe. After being stunned for a long time, she eagerly asked, "Mom, what did you say? What marriage? Who wants to get married!?"
" Of course it's you and Wenjun, "Lin's mother looked at her with a little complaint again, as if blaming her for saying such words.
Lin Nuanxi was stunned again. She looked at her mother in a daze and then looked at Ho Wenjun. She did not know what to say. In this space, Ho Wenjun left. Before he left, he exchanged greetings with Lin's mother again. He even gave Lin Nuanxi a meaningful glance before leaving with a smile.
After he left, Lin Nuanxi finally reacted. She immediately pulled her mother's arm and said, "Mom, I'm not marrying. I don't want to marry him. I don't love him at all. I'm not familiar with him either!"
"Love? What's the use of love?" Lin's mother stared at her coldly and said, "You and Lyi Qingming are very familiar with each other. But... How did he treat you? Your father just died and he abandoned you and married her. Even if he loved you, in the face of benefits, what he did was indisputable. If he marries you, he would be nothing, and he would even have to bear the reputation of a corrupt son-in-law. But if he marries Zhang Zijing, he will be a small bureau chief. He will become the deputy mayor in one go. He was heartless, but what he did was the best choice for him. Since he could do that, why couldn't you? No matter if it was Ho Wenjun's family background or appearance, he was one of a kind. Most importantly, after marrying him, he can help us. He can let your sister complete her studies. Furthermore, he told me everything that happened today. He said that you had a drunk relationship with him, and now you're like this... If you don't marry him, who else can you marry?"
"But he married me not because he likes me, but because..."
"Because of that superstitious legend? It's because of this that he's determined to get you. He also said that if you don't marry him, you can too. In any case, he still has time to find other women who are compatible with him, but we... won't have a good life." Lin's mother closed her eyes and said in despair.
Lin Nuanxi's face turned pale again, and she took a few steps back in panic. Her eyes were staring straight as she muttered, "He threatened us?"
