Over indulge

The words that burst into the eardrum were like a bomb, and Lin Baiyi, who was sitting there, was at a loss and his mind was confused.

After a long while, he said with an awkward yet polite smile, "You must be joking."

For the time being, regardless of the age difference between the other party and Jiayue, they are both the same gender, which already makes Lin Baiyi unbelievable, and what is even more unbelievable is that these two people who have never met before will inevitably lead Lin Baiyi to conclude that the other party is Just kidding at the conclusion.

"You think I'm joking?" Xu Ruining immediately asked him a rhetorical question.

Lin Baiyi had a heart attack, and became more and more puzzled by the smile in the other party's eyes. She took a long breath, and then looked to the stage ahead and said, "Miss Xu seems to have underestimated me, Lin, daughter... yes Untouchable bottom line."

"Oh?" Xu Ruining echoed the particle.

Lin Baiyi puffed up her chest, straightened her suit, smoothed out the wrinkles, and said imposingly, "I won't do anything like sell my daughter for a business. Please go back." After speaking, she got up and wanted to leave.

Xu Ruining, who was sitting on the chair, was still indifferent, without changing his face, but Youyou refuted his words: "Do you think I can't bring her happiness?"

Lin Baiyi stopped and smiled inconceivably. When he turned around, he happened to meet the other person's eyes. They were a pair of confident eyes, and it was written in them that he must win, which made him a little uneasy.

"Although I am the father of the little girl, I also respect her own wishes and will not do anything to force her."

"Well, I have plenty of time, please go back and let me know, and give me an answer anytime within seven days." After Xu Ruining finished speaking, he added: "By the way, the Lin family enterprise can last for seven days at most, right?"

The light tone of the woman made Lin Baiyi shudder. She actually investigated it so clearly. Indeed, she can last up to seven days. This is the time Lin Baiyi set for herself.

The moment he came out of the auditorium, Lin Baiyi couldn't help clenching his fists, and exchanged his daughter's life's happiness, how could he allow such a thing.

It has been six days since that day, and tomorrow is the deadline. In the past few days, Lin Baiyi has never stopped running around, and has been begging his grandpa to sue his grandma, but no one is willing to help him. It seems that they have negotiated. Waiting to see the collapse of the Lin family, waiting to see the jokes of the Lin family.

There is nothing he can do.

Deciding to tell his daughter about that matter today, Lin Baiyi also fought countless times, because he knew that with someone as capable as Xu Ruining, she would not let go of what she wanted easily, even if he didn't tell his daughter The truth, what should come, still can't escape.

"Master, here we are."

In a daze, the car had already parked in the yard of his villa, and Lao Yang's voice brought Lin Baiyi back from his thoughts.

Taking a deep breath and opening the car door, there is a sense of nothingness and unreality when stepping on the ground with both feet. Now every step I start to walk into the house, every step is so heavy.

Hearing the sound of cars outside, Lin Jiayue raised her head, "It seems that Dad is back."

"Then let's go out." Zhou Hong said to her, and before leaving, she checked the little girl sleeping soundly in the crib again.

The mother and daughter came out of the living room. At this moment, Lin Baiyi had just entered the room. Lin Jiayue immediately called her father, and she was stunned for a second. Dad... seemed to be more vicissitudes and older than the last time I saw it. Little, white hair can be seen faintly in the hair, and the fatigue visible to the naked eye makes Lin Jiayue feel very uncomfortable. Obviously, before, more than a month ago, her father was not like this.

Lin Baiyi stepped forward and said something to Zhou Hong, and Zhou Hong went back to the room alone. Now only Lin Jiayue and her father were left in the living room.

Being led to sit on the sofa by her father, Lin Jiayue was both curious and uneasy. She didn't know what her father would say to her, but she didn't want her mother to hear it.

Looking at her daughter, Lin Baiyi's eyes were full of love, she changed her usual strictness, and said kindly, "How is your study at school recently?"

Eh…

Lin Jiayue didn't expect the first sentence to be this, she was already mentally prepared.

"It's good. I can keep up with the teacher's progress, and I also practice piano every day."

Lin Baiyi nodded reassuringly, a little relieved, and then asked again: "Is there any strange person visiting your school?"

Lin Jiayue was stunned for a moment, then laughed in disbelief: "Strange person, what kind of strange person does dad mean?"

Lin Baiyi shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, just nothing."

silence.

fell into silence.

Lin Jiayue didn't understand, and was also a little uneasy. It seemed that her father wanted to say something, but couldn't speak.

What should I do, should I take the initiative to ask?

"Dad." In the end, she took the initiative to break the silence in the air.

Lin Baiyi raised his head and looked at her.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't care. I can accept any result. If... if there is something I can do for this family, it would be great." Lin Jiayue said at the end Winking and laughing, she didn't want her father to carry everything alone. Home is a harbor, a place to unload the burden, and family members also rely on it.

"Jiayue..." After hearing Lin Jiayue's words, Lin Baiyi just opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Lin Jiayue looked into her father's eyes seriously, waiting for what he would say next, Lin Baiyi had no choice but to grit her teeth.

"There is indeed something about you."

Seeing how her father finally breathed a sigh of relief after saying this, Lin Jiayue's pupils widened, as expected.

"What's the matter?" She asked softly, and the uneasiness covered her heart again.

"There is a woman who is willing to help our family solve the crisis and pay off the debt..."

Before her father finished speaking, Lin Jiayue interrupted excitedly: "That's great, this is good news!"

But the expression on Dad's face was not happy, could it be her illusion?

Lin Baiyi looked at her daughter with extremely complicated eyes, and said with difficulty: "The other party's condition...is you."

"Me?" Lin Jiayue was a little shocked, she didn't quite understand the meaning of her father's words, what did she want her to do?

"Dad, what the hell does this mean, on condition that I am?"

Lin Baiyi sighed, and then said: "She wants... wants you... wants you to be her person."

Lin Jiayue no longer cared about how hard it was for her father to say these words, but felt that her brain was buzzing, as if there was a short circuit.

what's going on.

Dad seemed to say that it was a woman.

Women and women... Confusion and complexity appeared between Lin Jiayue's brows.

Soon, Lin Baiyi hurriedly said: "But you don't have to take it to heart. Dad won't sell his daughter. You can't force anyone if you don't want to. I will think about the company's affairs."

But she couldn't think of a way, Lin Jiayue said in her heart.

After thinking about it, Lin Jiayue took the initiative to ask: "Who is that person, who is the person who made the condition with Dad?"

Lin Baiyi was shocked and unbelievable. His daughter's reaction was not the rejection as imagined, but calm. She even took the initiative to inquire.

"Xu Ruining."

Lin Jiayue seemed to have heard of this name somewhere, but Lin Jiayue was not so impressed.

The words fell, and at this moment, Zhou Hong, who had been eavesdropping behind the door, couldn't help but rushed out to interrupt their conversation.

"I disagree!"

Lin Jiayue and Lin Baiyi both turned their heads, and Zhou Hong strode towards them, looking unhappy.

"Lin Baiyi, how could you give your daughter to that kind of person." Zhou Hong came up and scolded the man in front of her.

Lin Jiayue on the side was a little at a loss, because in memory, parents rarely quarrel when they love each other.

It's just that the kind of person my mother mentioned just now... is that woman named Xu Ruining?Is she a very bad person?

Lin Baiyi looked aggrieved and said, "I didn't agree, I just came back and told Jiayue that there was such a thing."

"Anyway, I don't agree, unless I die, you know better than me what kind of person Xu Ruining is." Zhou Hong folded his arms, his chest heaving up and down because of emotion.

Lin Baiyi quickly got up and supported her shoulder to comfort her, "You are still in confinement, don't get too excited, I won't, don't worry."

What kind of person is Xu Ruining?

Why did my mother turn pale when she heard her name, and why did such a person offer to help the Lin family solve their difficulties? You must know that the current difficulties of the Lin family cannot be solved with a small amount.

Before I had time to think too much, my thoughts were interrupted by my mother's words.

"I know that the current situation of our family is very bad, but Lao Lin, the trees are moved to death, and people are moved to live. As long as our family works together, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome. At worst, we will file for bankruptcy. We will pay off the debt slowly, etc. After confinement, I will go out to work, earn some money, and even if it doesn't help my mother's family, I will help, huh?" Zhou Hong seemed to be discussing with Lin Baiyi.

"What kind of job do you have? How many years have you not worked? Outsiders will not accept you. Besides, the doctor said that you need to take good care of your body, and Jiaxue also needs your care." Lin Baiyi almost vetoed it without hesitation, " As for your natal family, I don't want to be looked down upon by them, a big man still depends on his mother-in-law's family, what kind of rumor does it sound like?"

Zhou Hong still refused to give up, "I'm also a graduate of a prestigious university, so I won't be able to find a job."

"You are still too naive. The current world is not as good as it used to be. There are so many fresh graduates who can't find a job. Where is your competitiveness?"

I have to say that my father's words were a bit harsh, Zhou Hong looked a little hurt, and Lin Jiayue could actually understand a little bit, after all, my mother fell in love with my father when she was still in college, and my father was already successful in his career when he graduated from college. I almost got married after graduation and became a full-time wife. I haven’t worked for 20 years. How can I compete with fresh graduates?

It's true, and it's cruel.

"Lin Baiyi, you look down on people."

"I don't, wife, wife..."

Because Zhou Hong had just given birth, she couldn't control her emotions well, so she covered her face and ran to the room. Lin Baiyi hurried to catch up, leaving Lin Jiayue alone in the living room, as if she hadn't had a chance to speak just now?

When I came back to my senses, the topic just now seemed to have disappeared, and there was no result from the discussion.

But at least Lin Jiayue knew exactly why she was called home by her father today.

While her father was returning to the room to coax her mother, Lin Jiayue also got up and left the living room and went upstairs to her own room, so let's not disturb their world for now.

Her room is still the same, and there is no change from the last time I came back. When I opened the bag to take out the phone, I accidentally saw the small toy inside. Then I remembered that she bought it when shopping with Robo the night before, because her sister’s name It's Jiaxue, so this snowflake puppet was specially bought for her. I hope she can think of her sister when she sees this, but now she is too young to remember. Lin Jiayue couldn't help but laugh when she thought of it.

Take this down.

Lin Jiayue went downstairs and was about to knock on the door of her parents' room when she overheard the conversation inside.

"What did Xu Ruining tell you?" Zhou Hong asked.

"I didn't say anything, I just said that I would help the Lin family survive the crisis and pay off their debts."

"She would put forward such a condition. How could I give her my precious daughter? Shameless."

"Okay, don't get excited and pay attention to your body." After speaking, Lin Baiyi sighed, "Tomorrow is the last day. I will go out to try again at night. I don't want to give up until the last moment."

……

The last day.

Tomorrow is the last day.

Lin Jiayue covered her mouth in surprise, turned around and fled upstairs, back to her room and closed the door, leaning her back behind the door and gasping for breath.

Regarding the most serious consequences, Lin Jiayue has never thought about it. After declaring bankruptcy, the huge debt owed cannot be repaid, and the court will freeze all assets including the real estate under her name. Now, I can take care of myself, I can move back to school, and I can also work part-time to earn tuition fees, but what about my father? The hard work of half a lifetime is ruined. He is nearly fifty years old, will he collapse overnight? And what about the mother, since she was pregnant with the second child at an advanced age, her body has not been as good as before. What about the little sister? Is she going to be homeless at such a young age? Compared with Lin Jiayue in the past 20 years It's too unfair to live a good life.

My heart hurts so badly.

I can hardly breathe.

Clutching her chest, Lin Jiayue staggered to the desk and sat down, resting her arms on it with her chin folded. There was really only one way right now.

It's just that she racked her brains and couldn't figure it out, why did that woman, whom her parents said was bad, suddenly want to lend a helping hand to save the Lin family from suffering?

No matter what, this deal would be a loss for her, right? Lin Jiayue is the only condition, is she really worth that much money?

why me.

I don't understand.

This answer is probably only a woman named Xu Ruining, so I know it myself.
