A Beloved Wife in Marriage

Chapter 62 - 62 Lu Dongcheng

62 Lu Dongcheng

When Lin Chaoyan saw her return, she put down her cup and asked, “Is the deed done? Did that Jiang guy make things difficult for you?”

“It’s done,” Lin Qingqian replied. Her gaze landed on the luggage. “Auntie, are you going back to Yushan?”

Lin Chaoyan replied readily, “Yes, since there’s no issues on your side now, I can go back. The little b*stards at home are still waiting for me to feed them.”

“Auntie, can you not go back?” Lin Qingqian held her hand, feeling very reluctant.

“What can I do here if I don’t go back?” Lin Chaoyan glared at her coquettishly. “Alright, you’re already so old, yet you’re still acting like a child! If you really can’t bear to part with Auntie, come and visit me more often.”

Lin Qingqian pursed her lips and nodded without saying anything.

Lin Chaoyan took out a card from the pocket sewn on the inside of her pants and stuffed it into her palm. “I saved 100,000 yuan on the card. I accumulated it from working and raising pigs all these years. I wanted to give you some dowry so that you would have some confidence in the Jiang family. I didn’t expect—”

Thinking of the events of the past few days, she could not help but sigh heavily.

Lin Qingqian’s clear eyes suddenly widened. When she realized what was going on, she immediately shook her head and stuffed the card back. “Auntie, I can’t take your money.”

Before she could finish her sentence, her eyes had already turned red.

“Child, what nonsense are you talking about?” Lin Chaoyan grabbed her hand and stuffed the card into her palm. “I have no children. If I don’t give this money to you, who should I give it to? In the future, Auntie will count on you to take care of me until I die!

Or do you not want to see me off when I’m old?”

Lin Qingqian shook her head with all her might. Her gaze landed on her auntie’s calloused and rough hands, and tears immediately fell.

Ever since she came to Lan City, her Auntie had never sent her money again. Every time she called, she would say that since the Jiang family was so rich, they would not treat her badly. She even told her to live well in the Jiang family and not be polite with them.

She had never liked how her Auntie liked to scrimp and take advantage of others.

Little did she know that the reason why her Auntie could not bear to buy clothes or eat and drink was because her Auntie was saving money to give to her.

At this moment, guilt and self-blame turned into tears that fell like rain.

Lin Chaoyan also became a little sad because of her. Her eyes were red as she wiped the tears off her face with her rough fingers. She suppressed her emotions and pretended to be disdainful. “Why are you crying? Useless!!”

After a pause, she said, “I’m leaving now. Otherwise, I won’t be able to catch the train.”

Lin Qingqian took a deep breath and wiped away the tears on her face. She said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll send you to the train station.”

Lin Chaoyan didn’t refuse.

Lin Qingqian used her phone app to book a car to send Lin Chaoyan to the train station.

She watched as her Auntie passed the security check at the entrance of the train station and disappeared into the crowd. Her eyes turned red again.

She held the card that Lin Chaoyan gave her tightly in her hand and secretly made a decision—

She had to work hard and earn money to buy a house and a car. In the future, she had to bring Auntie over from Yushan and never let her suffer again!

Lin Qingqian composed herself and prepared to go back to look for a job. Just as she reached the roadside, a black car stopped in front of her.

A young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses got out of the front passenger seat and said politely, “Miss Lin, President Lu wants to see you.”

Lin Qingqian took a step back and stared at him warily. “I don’t know any person called President Lu.”

Among those with the surname Lu, she only knew Lu Yuan, Jiang Yanshen’s special assistant, who was far away in England right now.

The man adjusted his glasses and smiled. “Miss Lin, don’t be nervous. I’m not a bad person. Our President’s surname is Lu, and his name is Dongcheng.”

Lin Qingqian was stunned—Lu Dongcheng?
