Lin Yun asked her what happened, she hesitated and was vague, then said that she had caught a cold.
After telling her to take the medicine properly, Lin Yun did not have any suspicions.
Lin Xiangling herself still felt a little uncomfortable... Of course, she had checked on the Internet and it was said that some girls were naturally more sensitive, and when they were in the right mood, just stimulating two grapes would... cause that.
So, logically speaking, what happened last night can be explained, proving that she is still a normal person.
But it was still so embarrassing. Her relationship with Lin Yun was far from that point, but she was thinking about him doing that kind of thing. Lin Xiangling felt like she was a bit perverted.
In order to digest this shame, Lin Xiangling didn't dare to talk too much to Lin Yun for several days, and she didn't dare to invite him to play when she was working at the art center on weekends.
Lin Yun just thought that the little pig was obsessed with studying.
As December approaches, the weather turns completely cooler, and the most obvious change is that stockings and thick tights on the legs of the girls have become their main equipment.
The days in winter pass quickly, with short days and long nights. Wearing too many clothes will make you sleepy easily. It just so happens that there are several hot stocks in the US stock market that can make a big profit this month. Lin Yun sleeps in class during the day and stays up late to trade at night. By the time he finishes the work at hand, it is already the middle of the month.
It means Christmas is near.
He didn't forget Jiang Qianxi's "gift"... Lin Yun guessed that there would probably be a normal Christmas gift.
I gathered all my energy into a dance and secretly gave it to him.
Obviously, this gift will make the relationship between the two move in a direction contrary to "pure, harmonious, and innocent", but since he didn't refuse it at that time, he can't say he won't accept it now, right?
Jiang Qianxi has been practicing more recently, going to the dance studio once an extra week, obviously to practice this.
The more Lin Yun thought about it, the more numb he became. However, he was looking forward to the dance itself. Just as he was enveloped by conflicting emotions, his family suddenly informed him that he must return to Yangxin Pavilion this weekend, saying that the old lady had something important to ask him.
This is really strange.
“Important questions” generally have nothing to do with Lin Yun.
The person who called was Lin Huaizhi, the only designated agent of Old Mrs. Lin, and she could fully represent Old Mrs. Lin's attitude.
Lin Yun asked indirectly what the matter was, but Lin Huaizhi only replied coldly:
"No comment. You'll know when you meet the old lady."
"..." What a cold sister! Putting down the phone, Lin Yun couldn't help but twisted the corner of his mouth. Speaking of which, the Lin family is like this. Even within the family, there are clear hierarchies and they like to show off... Rather than saying that Old Lady Lin likes to talk about traditional culture, it is better to say that this old lady simply likes feudal ideas.
Well, since he doesn’t plan to tell her in advance, Lin Yun will just go there with the attitude of opening a blind box. It probably won’t be too serious.
Early Saturday morning, a black luxury car carrying Lin Yun drove to the mountains on the outskirts of the city.
The appearance of the Yangxin Pavilion has remained almost unchanged for many years. It is obvious that this is the intention of Old Lady Lin. As people get older, they tend to be nostalgic, and as a result, the Lin family's management methods have not seen any major innovations for a long time.
The Lin Group's business operations emphasize "human connections". From the literal meaning of these four words, it is not difficult to see that the Lin family indeed attaches great importance to blood ties. After all, blood is the strongest interpersonal bond among human beings since ancient times.
In addition, the Lin family will also sponsor young people they identify with and provide control over them at the same time.
These strategies were set by Mr. Lin back then and continue to this day.
But in fact, although they are all blood relatives, their family status and the competition they face are completely different.
Lin Yun couldn't understand what important things a young master, who was almost like a pet cat, could tell him.
What bad intentions does a cat have?
For a pet cat, the most serious thing is sterilization...Should grandma take him for sterilization?
Thinking of this, Lin Yun couldn't help but laugh out loud.
A few minutes later, Lin Yun walked into the main hall of the Yangxin Pavilion. When he saw the scene inside, he immediately stopped laughing.
Hey, come on, there really is a pet cat being neutered.
The cat lying on the makeshift operating table, already anesthetized and sticking out its tongue, is probably from my uncle's family. A little girl is watching the operation nervously. She is the granddaughter of my uncle Lin Haiqiang and the child of the sister of Lin Yuankai, the eldest grandson of the Lin family... It's a bit confusing to say, but in short, she is a happy girl who is qualified to invite a famous veterinarian to her home and bring a full set of equipment to sterilize her beloved cat.
Her mother was accompanying her, and Lin Yun went up to greet her.
"Good morning, big sister."
"Xiao Yun... I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you suddenly free to go home?"
"Grandma said she missed me, so I have to come back now."
"Oh."
Looking at Lin Yun's innocent appearance, a hint of gloom appeared in the woman's eyes and she shook her head imperceptibly.
Little brother, you are still in the dark when disaster strikes. It's really pitiful.
She is at the advanced age among the third generation of the Lin family, has broad knowledge and many sources of information.
Recently, Old Lady Lin called several boys of marriageable age together and scolded them, accusing them of being useless and not attracting any of the girls from the Xu family.
Of course - Lin Yun is not among these people.
Old Mrs. Lin felt that Lin Yun was not worthy of marrying the only daughter of the Xu family.
The woman thought that this idea was totally crazy. The two of them were in love with each other, so why did you try to break them up?
Anyone who did not conform to Old Lady Lin's plan would be ruthlessly targeted by her. In this case, perhaps it was because she felt that Lin Yun lacked the skills. If she used him for marriage, she was afraid that he would not be able to control Xu Jingyi and could not gain value from the bond of marriage...
Everything is measured by the standard of value. This is the sadness of the Lin family's children. Women in those days were also victims of interests.
For the sake of an "important" project, she was married to the boss of a small energy giant, and not surprisingly, she spent those unhappy years there.
Lin Yun encountered the opposite situation. He heard that Xu Jingyi had feelings for him, but he was facing the situation of being separated.
Grandma didn't show up - until the cat's neutering surgery was completed.
The eldest sister came over and said something to Old Mrs. Lin, with a pleading look on her tired face. The latter just waved her hand impatiently, called a few servants, and sent her away.
Tsk, she is indeed a feudal old woman. After her daughter got married, she became so unfamiliar that she didn't even look like a family member...
"Xiao Yun, what do you think after watching it?" Before Lin Yun even sat down, he was asked a strange question.
"What do you mean?"
"You keep a healthy cat at home and you want to castrate its reproductive organs... Don't you think it's cruel?"
"Well, it's normal to sterilize pets. Many people do it."
Old Mrs. Lin shook her head in an inscrutable manner. "No, this is not so natural. Take cats for example. Most pet cats can live peacefully for ten years unless something unexpected happens. However, the average lifespan of stray cats in the wild is less than two and a half years...Xiao Yun, do you know what this means?"
"I don't understand." Lin Yun stared with innocent big eyes, cursing in his heart, "You old bitch, if you have something to say, just say it, and don't waste your time here."
Old Mrs. Lin drank her tea leisurely, and after keeping everyone in suspense for a long time, she slowly said, "Pet cats lose the freedom to reproduce in exchange for a good life... Everything has a price, Xiaoyun."
Lin Yun: “…”
Good guy!
You specifically asked me to come this morning just to let me watch a cat get its balls cut off to show me your power, right?... Lin Yun thought that grandma was so creative, it would be a waste of her talent if she didn't go into marketing.
"So grandma, what on earth do you want to say?" Lin Yun continued to act stupid and cute.
"The blind date with the little girl from the Xu family... Grandma advises you not to take it seriously. She is not suitable for you."
"Grandma, you are right. I think so too."
"..."
Old Mrs. Lin’s brows were twisted like an old chrysanthemum withered in late autumn.
This kid...
I thought that a loser like Lin Yun should be completely bewildered by Xu Jingyi's pursuit.
As a result, he was convinced before the ideological work was even done.
Hiss...strange.
97. I feel like the world line is broken (4000 words)
For people who are good at calculating, the difference in their ideas when faced with the same thing will not be too big.
Old Mrs. Lin felt that she could understand Xu Jingyi's idea - to seek marriage with Lin Yun would not only leverage the Lin family's resources, but Lin Yun would also be someone who was very easy to control.
The girl had a seductive face, and there were countless young masters coveting her. If she was determined to seduce Lin Yun, it would be very easy for her to do so.
Of course Mrs. Lin couldn't let Xu Jingyi succeed, so she called Lin Yun to come and gave him instructions in person. She also let Lin Yun see the cat that was being neutered.
Such meaningful hints are the old lady's favorite way of showing off. When used on immature young people, it is definitely a heavy blow.
However, this heavy blow hit the cotton.
It seems that Lin Yun doesn't take Xu Jingyi seriously at all... This is so weird, could it be that this guy just doesn't like Xu Jingyi's type?
Men's likes and dislikes are all kinds of strange. Old Mrs. Lin has never understood what kind of girl Lin Yun likes. However, if Lin Yun is not interested in Xu Jingyi, it would be convenient for Old Mrs. Lin to arrange it.
"If you really think so, grandma will be very happy. So... since you think she is not good enough, does Xiaoyun have any other girls he likes?"
"No, I feel like love is something very far away. I'm still young."
"Eighteen is not considered young... In your grandfather's time, a handsome guy like you would have many people knocking on the door to propose marriage at the age of eighteen..."
“Hahaha, is that so?”
Lin Yun dealt with it casually, wondering what on earth this old witch was trying to figure out... Dissing Xu Jingyi was within Lin Yun's expectations, but the confusing words that followed, could it be that she found a new marriage partner for him?
According to Old Lady Lin's logic, the right marriage partner for Lin Yun must be a family that can provide some kind of help to the Lin Group.
Considering Lin Yun's status in the Lin family, this family is definitely not that strong. They may even be an ordinary family, but the woman herself is very useful to the Lin family... The Lin family has always arranged their children's marriages in this way. No matter whether they are favored children or those who grew up under cold eyes, they will go to a certain destination according to the family's "arrangements".
While his grandmother was acting cool by doing three things in a row: "drinking tea, squinting her eyes, and smiling with pursed lips", Lin Yun carefully searched his memory.
In his previous life, until he left the Lin family, his grandmother never considered his marriage issue.
There has never been a situation like this that clearly shows that he is not young anymore and should find a wife.
Of course, after his rebirth, Lin Yun did many things that he had never done in his previous life. According to the butterfly effect, the general trend may not change, and it is not destined by the novel world, such as the pattern of international development, the plot line of the male protagonist, the rise of the two childhood sweethearts...
It is not surprising that the appearance of a suitable candidate made grandma want to arrange a marriage for Lin Yun. After all, in Grandma Lin's opinion, there are quite a lot of girls who are worthy of Lin Yun.
who can that be?
Lin Yun couldn't help but feel curious.
So he put on a silly and expectant look and smiled innocently.
Old Lady Lin was very satisfied with his attitude. After a long pause, she finally asked, "Your childhood sweetheart, Jiang Qianxi, has started to become a singer recently?"
"Ah, that's right." Lin Yun's smile gradually disappeared, "Grandma, why did you suddenly ask her why?"
"You've known her since childhood and have been together for many years. Don't you have any feelings for her?"
"..."
"At the last tea party, Huaizhi helped me observe her and said that the girl has a kind personality and is talented... Such a good girl cannot be buried in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry. Why not just marry her home and let her join our agency and protect her."
Protect?
Look at what he said, very high EQ.
Isn't it just that since Jiang Qianxi has good luck and has been signed by another company, he wants to use his family's influence to poach her?
Moreover, the way to poach her was to let her childhood sweetheart Lin Yun marry her...
After hearing what Old Lady Lin said, Lin Yun suddenly understood and instantly understood his grandmother's plan.
Suddenly I felt a mixture of emotions.
To be honest, when Lin Yun decided to raise a childhood sweetheart, he never thought that Qianxi would be favored by Old Lady Lin and would be arranged to be his wife.
This has to be said to be a boomerang in a sense...
It is absolutely impossible to let Qianxi become the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, because Lin's Entertainment is a very crappy company, famous for exploiting its employees. Letting Jiang Qianxi join Lin's Entertainment would be absolutely disrespectful to the queen.
Even if he wants to marry Jiang Qianxi, he has to leave the Lin family and do it as "orphan Lin Yun"... No, wait, what the hell is going on? What will happen to Yu Sheng if he marries Jiang Qianxi?
Lin Yun quickly stopped his wandering thoughts, adjusted his emotions back to the state of an actor, and shouted loudly: "Grandma, don't slander people's innocence out of thin air! My relationship with those two childhood sweethearts was very pure, how could we become husband and wife? That's too weird!"
"Oh, that's wrong." Old Mrs. Lin waved her hand. "Any relationship can be cultivated. You may feel uncomfortable now, but it won't be strange once you accept it."
"...Grandma, please stop teasing me. I really can't do it."
"How do you know if you don't try? It's decided. From now on, you will try to date Jiang Qianxi and try to make progress within a week."
"..."
A week?
Are you breeding pigs across the river?
Let’s not talk about how Lin Yun feels about Qianxi... Just look at Old Lady Lin’s tough attitude without a trace of emotion, it’s no wonder that the brothers and sisters in the family are generally unhappy in their marriages.
