Chapter 383: Breakdown! Blacklisted!
Chapter 383: Breakdown! Blacklisted!
Almost instinctively, Lin Xin opened the gift box and saw the jade jewelry inside, along with a certificate.
Astonishingly, the jade jewelry within was also valued at 480,000 yuan.
Most crucially, she recognized Zhang Lin, and the scar on the back of his hand, which, though now faint, was unmistakable.
This realization struck her like a bolt of lightning, and she couldn't believe it was real.
He had been riding a scooter and was covered in dirt before.
How had he suddenly transformed into a successful individual?
Most importantly, he was her first love, and if they hadn't broken up, she wouldn't be constantly worrying about getting her sister to speak well of her so that her boyfriend would introduce her to quality men.
Because her boyfriend was originally meant for her.
She had dated one man after another, all of them high-quality, right?
Thinking of this, she glared at her parents with hatred, blaming them for the obstacles they had created, which led to their breakup.
She had been just a little girl back then, how could she have understood all that? She was scared when she saw her parents fly into a rage and constantly scold her.
At that moment, she was filled with regret, thinking that if she hadn't broken up with Zhang Lin, she would have been a winner in life without even trying.
Her parents had ruined her happiness.
Yet, her parents had always lectured her about her early romance with Zhang Lin, saying how she had been deceived by him and lacked self-respect.
This filled her with hatred.
But what could she do? Kill her parents? She wasn't that crazy.
Fight her sister for Zhang Lin? She was well aware that Zhang Lin's eyes showed nothing but embarrassment, and he clearly didn't want to see her.
More importantly, she had dated so many men, two of whom were even from You City, so how could Zhang Lin, with his current status, possibly reconcile with her, let alone marry her?
In TV dramas, the kind of story where a woman, whose husband is useless and earns only a few thousand yuan a month, is pursued by artists or protected by handsome celebrities, or where a domineering CEO wants to marry her, is simply impossible in real life.
Even if someone were to take her on, the wealthy wouldn't touch a 'garbage' like her, especially in a small town. If they did, they would be talked about by the lower-class people, saying how amazing that person was, but that the woman had been 'tamed' by him. Who could bear that?
Or, facing Zhang Lin now, she felt extremely inferior.
This made her wordlessly turn and walk outside, holding the gift he had given her.
"Xiao Xin," Lin Hua called out.
She didn't respond.
"Lin Xin!" Fu Xingming also shouted.
She didn't pay attention to him either.
She opened the door and was about to walk out.
But suddenly, she seemed to remember something, turned around, took the Rolex watch from Fu Xingming's hand and the jewelry from Lin Hua's, and left without looking back.
Fu Yao, witnessing this, felt her sister was being impolite and immediately spoke up, "Lin Xin, you..."
Lin Xin, however, glared at her with a murderous look, preventing her from saying another word. She could only watch helplessly as her sister left the room and slammed the door shut.
Fu Yao was left feeling completely bewildered.
What was going on?
The other three, however, knew the reason.
Especially Zhang Lin, who had guessed correctly; Lin Xin had broken through her mental barrier.
However, he didn't feel anything special about it, as they were now complete strangers.
What concerned him now was Fu Yao's feelings.
Lin Hua and Fu Xingming exchanged a glance.
They, too, were filled with regret.
Who would've thought that the scoundrel who deceived his eldest daughter into a relationship would achieve such great success?
If they had known this, who would have stopped the eldest daughter?
Who wouldn't want their daughter to have a good life?
A young man like Zhang Lin, with such accomplishments, is almost unheard of these days. Any family would be overjoyed if their daughter found such a boyfriend.
But it's not just that; even knowing Zhang Lin's current achievements, they couldn't have imagined that he would end up with their younger daughter.
This is the greatest hurt to the eldest daughter.
If the younger daughter marries him in the future, adorning herself with gold and silver, driving luxury cars, living in a manor, and becoming the boss's wife, wouldn't that drive the eldest daughter crazy?
Both of them had this thought in mind.
But now that things have come to this, they couldn't let their younger daughter's relationship fall apart, could they? After all, if they lost a boyfriend like Zhang Lin, they would never find another like him.
Moreover, having such a future son-in-law would also bring them great prestige.
At least their close friends and family know that their younger daughter has an excellent boyfriend, and if they break up, who knows what kind of ridicule and gossip they might face.
Lin Hua immediately said, "Zhang Lin, don't mind Lin Xin. She's had a strange temper since she was young, unlike Yao Yao, who is so well-behaved."
She no longer cared about her eldest daughter.
She just wanted her daughters to find good partners and have good marriages, regardless of whether it was the eldest or the younger daughter.
So, with a smile, she invited Zhang Lin to sit down.
Fu Xingming agreed and went along with it.
Although he felt it was strange that the man had an early romance with his eldest daughter, and now with his younger daughter, it was even more peculiar, and a bit hard to describe.
However, the man's current achievements were enough to make people overlook these issues.
Fu Yao, unaware of the reasons, also pulled Zhang Lin to sit down and said to Lin Hua, "Mom, call Lin Xin back. Why is she suddenly putting on airs? It's Uncle's first time visiting our home."
Lin Hua awkwardly nodded, took out her phone to call her eldest daughter, but found that she couldn't get through.
Later, she sent her a message, only to find that she had been blocked.
"What's Lin Xin doing?" Lin Hua frowned.
Fu Xingming asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Lin Xin has blocked me on WeChat, and her phone is unreachable," Lin Hua said with a frown.
Fu Xingming's expression turned serious as he heard this. "What's she up to?"
He sent a message to Lin Xin on WeChat, only to be surprised that he had been blocked as well.
Furthermore, he tried calling again, but it still didn't go through.
This caused his face to change slightly, and he immediately checked the group chat he had created, intending to mention Lin Xin.
But both of them discovered that the group only had themselves and Fu Yao left; Lin Xin had left the group.
This made them both anxious, not knowing what their eldest daughter was up to.
However, at this moment, they had to entertain Zhang Lin, and this matter was crucial, leaving them no time to deal with their eldest daughter's antics. After all, she would probably calm down after a day or two of her tantrum.
So, they continued to entertain Zhang Lin.
By this time, everyone could sense the awkward atmosphere, and in the end, the gathering was hastily concluded, with Fu Yao seeing Zhang Lin off.
As soon as they left the community, Fu Yao, unaware of the situation, apologized, "Uncle, I'm truly sorry. My sister is like that; she was deceived by a jerk into an early romance, and now she's unhappy with her current boyfriend. That's why she has such a temper."
