Chapter 382: Completely Dumbfounded
Chapter 382: Completely Dumbfounded
Zhang Lin followed Fu Yao into the old streets.
This area was considered the old urban area, and the communities surrounding the streets were all relatively old.
After a few turns, he followed the girl into an old community.
As he entered the community, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He had been to this community before.
Back when he was dating Lin Xin secretly, he had secretly brought her here, but only as far as the entrance, as he didn't dare to openly go to her home due to the secrecy of their early romance.
However, he had met Lin Xin at Yipin Community last year, and it was clear that her family had moved there.
This was normal.
Many residents of old communities would sell their old homes and buy new ones in the newly developed communities.
He never expected to have such a connection with this community, and it turned out that Fu Yao was also from this community.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Fu Yao noticed his unusual behavior and asked curiously.
"Nothing!" Zhang Lin smiled and shook his head.
If Lin Xin still lived here, it would have been awkward if they had met.
Thinking of this, he followed Fu Yao into the community and soon entered a building.
Being an old community, there was no elevator, and they had to climb the stairs.
As Fu Yao led him upstairs, she also took the opportunity to introduce him, "Uncle, my dad and mom are both easy to talk to, especially my mom. She has always been very supportive of me and you being together."
"It's just that my sister can be a bit annoying. You can just ignore her when the time comes, and there's no need to give her any special treatment."
"You have a sister?" Zhang Lin was surprised.
Fu Yao nodded, "Yeah, if she says something rude, just ignore her, Uncle."
Zhang Lin smiled and nodded.
Regardless of how her sister might behave, as long as she was a member of Fu Yao's family, he would give them face.
Fu Yao's home was on the seventh floor. After she opened the door, she invited Zhang Lin inside.
Upon entering, he saw a middle-aged man smoking and a middle-aged woman busy in the kitchen.
"Dad, Mom, my uncle is here," Fu Yao greeted the couple inside.
Fu Xingming immediately stood up, and Lin Hua also came out from the kitchen.
The couple was naturally looking forward to meeting their younger daughter's boyfriend, even though he was a bit older than their daughter.
When they saw him in their daughter's social media circle, they knew that a man with such a pretentious appearance, wealth, and a successful career was something others could only dream of.
So, what if he was a bit older?
It wasn't like he was a whole generation older.
At least their younger daughter would be able to live a worry-free life, enjoying a privileged existence.
Zhang Lin stared at the couple, momentarily stunned.
Although they had aged, their appearances were still recognizable, unlike him, who had undergone such a miraculous transformation, becoming pretentious after a simple makeover, looking vastly different from his previous self.
After all, he had never been associated with such pretentiousness before.
So, he recognized the couple.
Weren't they Lin Xin's parents?
What was going on?
Adding to the fact that they were in the same community, he couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.
Did Fu Yao and Lin Xin have a connection?
How was that possible?
The two had different surnames.
Just then, the door to the adjacent room opened, and Lin Xin walked out, "Yao Yao, has your boyfriend arrived?"
Today, she had specially dressed up, making herself look radiant.
She didn't intend to steal her sister's boyfriend, but she wanted to leave a good impression.
Since the other party is a person of status, their social circle must be filled with high-quality men, and who knows, maybe she could get an introduction.
Honestly, none of the boyfriends she had before could hold a candle to this one; they were only slightly better than Zhang Lin.
She had never come across a high-quality man like the owner of Liyuan Farm before.
So how could she possibly let this opportunity slip by?
When Zhang Lin saw Lin Xin appear, he was completely dumbfounded.
Is that really her?
What's going on here?
Lin Xin also froze for a moment when she saw Zhang Lin.
Previously, she had seen her sister's social media posts, but with the beauty filters, she didn't feel anything.
Now that she saw him in person, a strong sense of familiarity washed over her.
At this moment, Fu Yao happily introduced him, "Uncle, Auntie, this is my boyfriend, his name is Zhang Lin."
Zhang Lin's name immediately caught the attention of Fu Xingming and Lin Hua.
After all, both of them were very familiar with this name.
Because, from time to time, they would bring it up to criticize their eldest daughter.
The reason why their eldest daughter had an early romance and fell behind in her studies was all because of that good-for-nothing named Zhang Lin.
That kid clearly had no future, but now their youngest daughter's boyfriend turned out to be the owner of Liyuan Farm.
Who in You City didn't admire him? How many people had benefited from him?
When the two of them returned to You City and visited their friend's shop, they could hear people saying that thanks to Liyuan Farm, business was booming.
But who would have thought that his name would be Zhang Lin?
Lin Xin was completely stunned.
This name, coupled with that familiar feeling.
She couldn't believe it, but there was no other explanation.
At this moment, Zhang Lin probably realized the situation.
It was extremely awkward.
Fu Yao continued with the introductions, "Uncle, these are my parents, and this is my sister."
At this point, Zhang Lin couldn't just stand there, so he hurriedly took out his gifts and presented them to Fu Xingming and Lin Hua, "Uncle, Auntie, these are the gifts I prepared for you."
He had given a gent's watch to Fu Xingming and a pair of jade jewelry to Lin Hua.
Then, he awkwardly took out another pair of jade jewelry and presented it to Lin Xin, saying, "Sister, this is for you."
Since he had bought the gifts, he couldn't hold back from giving them, despite the awkward situation.
Lin Xin subconsciously took the jewelry he handed to her.
She opened her mouth, but for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.
"This watch is too valuable, I can't accept it," Fu Xingming immediately spoke up, and his voice caught the attention of everyone.
He recognized the brand on the watch's box as Rolex.
The key was when he opened the box and saw the certificate inside, which showed that the watch was worth over 500,000 yuan.
When had he ever worn such an expensive watch?
Not to mention buying one.
Now, Zhang Lin was offering it as a gift.
Lin Hua also opened her gift box and saw the certificate for the jade jewelry, which was also worth over 500,000 yuan.
"This jewelry is worth 480,000 yuan, it's too valuable," Lin Hua said, but she held the gift box tightly in her hand.
Had she ever worn such expensive jewelry?
It was a gift, so she couldn't very well refuse it, could she?
Lin Xin also subconsciously looked at the gift box in her hand, identical to her mother's, and she was completely stunned.
