Wei Jin wanted to laugh when she heard this. She glanced at Ding Hui.

She was really too naive in the past. She had always thought that Ding Hui had been beaten up by Wei Zhong because Wei Zhong was crazy. Now, she felt that Ding Hui was also crazy.

Neither of them could do without the other.

One was tyrannical, and the other was willing to find excuses for the abuse.

“So? Do you think I should be like you and live a life of being beaten, scolded, tortured, and humiliated every day? Do I have to be grateful and thank him for making me the noble Mrs. Lin?”

Ding Hui looked away. “Anyway, Young Master Lin treats you quite well. You have to cherish him.”

Wei Jin had completely lost her patience with Ding Hui. Even that trace of mother-daughter love had completely evaporated.

In the past, she had fantasies about Ding Hui because they did not live together. She naturally thought that Ding Hui hated Wei Zhong and her life in the Wei family.

Until she was kidnapped back to the Wei family, Wei Jin saw how Ding Hui hated Wei Zhong every day but had no choice but to rely on him.

Only then did she understand that she had been too naive in the past.

“Cherish?” Wei Jin smiled mockingly. “That’s good? Then do you know how well Mu Feng treats me? He can wait for me downstairs for two hours without being impatient. Instead, he’ll worry if I’m tired from class. He’ll make food for me and won’t even let me touch the bowl because his heart aches for my hand. He will…”

“Enough!!” Ding Hui suddenly roared at Wei Jin hysterically, her eyes filled with unconcealable jealousy.

Yes, jealousy.

At this moment, Ding Hui was extremely jealous of her daughter.

Before she arrived in Beijing, she did not really want to help Wei Zhong. At that time, she still had fantasies that she could get rid of everything in the Wei family.

However, while taking care of Wei Jin,

She had seen with her own eyes how Mu Feng doted on Wei Jin.

It was a complete adoration, not like Wei Zhong, who always ordered and scolded her.

Seeing the light in Mu Feng’s eyes and the smile on Wei Jin’s face,

Ding Hui’s heart was completely twisted.

She was unconvinced.

She did not want Wei Jin to be happy. If she could not get it, why could her daughter get it?

Hence, Ding Hui took the initiative to look for Wei Zhong and designed everything with him.

Looking at Ding Hui’s furious expression, Wei Jin smiled mockingly. “I was too naive in the past. I even treated you as a mother.”

Now that she thought about it, Ding Hui had only given birth to her and had never raised her. There was no mother-daughter relationship between the two of them.

It was all her wishful thinking.

“No matter what you say, you have to marry into the Lin family today. Don’t even think about getting what I can’t get in my life.” Ding Hui looked at Wei Jin fiercely, as if Wei Jin was the person she hated the most.

Wei Jin turned her head away and ignored Ding Hui. The room fell into a deadlock.

At this moment, Wei Zhong suddenly walked in from the door and scolded Ding Hui, “It’s a joyous day. What are you doing? You scared our precious daughter. Be careful or I’ll beat you up.”

Only then did Ding Hui retreat to the side.

Wei Zhong walked forward. “Alright, my good daughter, don’t blame your mother. What does a woman like her know? Pack up and prepare to go out.”

With that, Wei Zhong waved his hand and two teams walked in.

“Help Miss dress up.”

“Yes.”

Guests had already arrived at the Lin family’s door one after another.

The Lin family did not invite many people this time. Only the backbone of the top families and higher-ups were qualified to receive the invitation sent by the Lin family.

However, although there were not many people, the number of people who came was sufficient.

Characters that could only be seen on television were now everywhere in the Lin family’s mansion.

Xia Wanyuan held Jun Shiling’s arm and entered. Their outstanding looks immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

“CEO Jun, long time no see. This is Madam Jun, right? This is the first time I’ve seen her. She lives up to her reputation.”

“You’re too kind, Minister Liu.” Jun Shiling nodded slightly, then introduced him to Xia Wanyuan. “This is Minister Liu.”

Jun Shiling brought Xia Wanyuan to get to know these people in the hall one by one and patiently introduced everyone’s identity and family status to her.

When the other noble ladies saw Xia Wanyuan’s treatment, their hearts were filled with envy.

“Sigh, her life is so good. Can’t she go and greet herself? CEO Jun even brought her around personally. If it were our family, I really don’t dare to think about it.”

“How did she take care of her face? She’s so beautiful.” A noblewoman looked at Xia Wanyuan’s face, her eyes filled with envy. “Let alone Jun Shiling, I like that face too.”

Seeing Xia Wanyuan sitting not far away to rest, some noble ladies were eager to try and get close to her. They wanted to see how Xia Wanyuan maintained her face and where she did her beauty treatment. Perhaps she could even introduce one of them to them.

However, looking at Xia Wanyuan’s cold side profile, everyone felt a little timid.

After all, Xia Wanyuan was famous for being cold. If she went and was embarrassed, how embarrassing would it be?

Just as everyone was hesitating, Xia Wanyuan suddenly glanced over with a smile in her eyes. It instantly made one feel that Xia Wanyuan was very easy to get along with and looked very kind to them!

A bold lady tried to walk to Xia Wanyuan’s side. “Mrs. Jun, where did you buy this necklace? It’s so beautiful.”

“It’s at Su Fu Auction House. It should be in the same batch as the bracelet on your hand.”

This time, the conversation began. The noblewomen squeezed to Xia Wanyuan’s side and began to chat with her.

Xia Wanyuan was usually quiet and cold to people she was not familiar with.

However, for the people she wanted to get close to, Xia Wanyuan’s social skills could be considered full marks.

After all, everyone in politics was good at winning people over.

And Xia Wanyuan had done it to the extreme.

Xia Wanyuan knew everything. Her words made one feel comfortable. In addition, she spoke skillfully, making one feel that she had been praised but not that Xia Wanyuan had done it on purpose.

Not long after, the people surrounding Xia Wanyuan had heartfelt smiles on their faces.

Not far away, Jiang Kui felt a toothache as he watched Xia Wanyuan laugh and glory. He could not help but compare Zou Man to Xia Wanyuan. He immediately felt a toothache. He glanced at Zou Man. “What are you doing here? There are so many nobles here. Can’t you help me expand my connections?”

Although the women here did not have any real power outside, pillow wind had always been easy to blow.

If she could build a good relationship with these noble ladies, it would save him a lot of trouble.

Zou Man sat still. She rolled her eyes in her heart, but she had a gentle smile on her face. “I’ll go in a while. I just drank a mouthful of cold water. My stomach hurts a little now.”

“Alright.” Jiang Kui put down his cup. “Then sit here for a while. I’ll talk to someone.”

“Okay.” Zou Man nodded obediently.

After Jiang Kui left, Zou Man glanced at Xia Wanyuan with disdain.

In the past, she might have tried to get close to the noble ladies for Jiang Kui’s career.

Now? She could not wait to see the Jiang family go bankrupt.?Expand his connections? Dream on!?

In less than half an hour, most of the noblewomen present had already treated Xia Wanyuan as an especially good friend.

Seeing Jun Shiling come to look for Xia Wanyuan, the madams looked at her teasingly.

“Wanyuan, when we return to Beijing, I’ll treat you to our chef’s special dishes.”

“Wanyuan, when you have the chance, let me see you draw. I’m curious how much our old master likes your painting and calligraphy.”

“Wanyuan, we agreed to eat with me when we get back. My son likes you very much and treats you like a goddess. As a mother, he won’t listen to anything I say, but if you say anything, in my son’s eyes, it’s a golden rule.”

Xia Wanyuan smiled and greeted everyone. “Okay.”

Everyone left reluctantly and gave their seats to Jun Shiling.

Jun Shiling smiled and sat beside Xia Wanyuan. “Tsk.”

Xia Wanyuan glanced at him. “What are you trying to say again?”

Jun Shiling poured a cup of tea for Xia Wanyuan. “Why is my wife so beautiful?”

Jun Shiling could imagine Xia Wanyuan’s domineering appearance in her previous life.

There was nothing she could not win over. It was only if she wanted to.

Xia Wanyuan pinched Jun Shiling. “We’re outside. Can you be more serious?”

Jun Shiling held her hand. “Thank you.”

He knew that Xia Wanyuan was not a social person.

She was willing to talk to these noble ladies and get close to them because she wanted to help him.

Although the Jun family was very powerful, no matter how powerful a family was, it was impossible for them to advance alone.

“I don’t especially dislike socializing.” Xia Wanyuan leaned on Jun Shiling’s shoulder. “Actually, those madams are quite interesting.”

In fact, the noble ladies who could stand in this hall were mostly people from noble families. She did not feel very bored chatting with them.

“Do you want a cupcake?” Jun Shiling took out a palm-sized box from his pocket.

Xia Wanyuan’s eyes widened slightly. “Where did you get it?”

Jun Shiling smiled and opened the box. Inside was a very small piece of mousse cake. “I went out to get it just now. I’ve tried the cake here. It’s a little too sweet. I don’t think you like it. I got someone to make a new one and sent it over.”

Xia Wanyuan looked around. Many people’s gazes were already on them.

Xia Wanyuan blushed. “If you do this, people will laugh at us.”

Jun Shiling said righteously, “What are they laughing at? I dote on my wife. Who has any objections?”

With that, Jun Shiling took a spoon and scooped a spoonful of cake for Xia Wanyuan. She could only eat it.

Jun Shiling was right. Not only did the others have no objections, but they were also extremely envious.

Many noble ladies were thinking that they still had to ask Xia Wanyuan for guidance later. How could they make their husbands dote on them so much?

Usually, such large family activities were held on time.

Especially an old family like the Wei and Lin families that valued traditional etiquette.

Every minute and second was almost calculated according to the time because they were particular about an auspicious day, a bright and beautiful time.

However, something was wrong today.

Everyone had been waiting in the hall for a long time. Seeing that they were about to miss the best time, Lin Qingyuan still did not come out, and no one from the Lin family appeared.

At that moment, in the Lin family’s backyard, Su Yueran was wearing an exquisite gown, her face filled with surprise. “Brother, what’s wrong?”

Just now, she had prepared everything, but she suddenly received a message from Lin Qingyuan asking her to rush to the backyard.

When she rushed to Lin Qingyuan, she happened to see him slap Lin Wei.

“You’re really good.” The veins on Lin Qingyuan’s forehead twitched. He had used all his strength to hit Lin Wei.

Lin Wei’s face quickly swelled up. She tilted her head. “Brother, why must you do this? You clearly know that Wei Jin is from the Mu family.”

“Shut up!” Lin Qingyuan slapped Lin Wei again. This time, it was even more ruthless. Blood seeped out of the corners of Lin Wei’s lips.

Lin Wei gritted her teeth and did not speak. A look of satisfaction flashed across Su Yueran’s eyes.

Good slap!

However, on the surface, Su Yueran was still comforting Lin Qingyuan. “Brother, what did Sister do wrong? Why are you hitting her like this?”

“What mistake did she make?” Lin Qingyuan was so angry that his hands were trembling. “She cooperated with outsiders and let Wei Jin go!”

When she said this, Su Yueran was shocked. “How is that possible? Isn’t the defense strict?”

Lin Qingyuan had long expected that something might happen today, so he set up countless checkpoints and security guards with the Wei family.

How could a person escape under such circumstances? How was that possible?

Lin Qingyuan’s eyes were gloomy.

He had indeed done all the security work, but he had ignored one thing.

On the way from the Wei family to the Lin family, the security was so tight that not even a mosquito could fly out. However, he ignored someone in the Lin family.

That was Lin Wei.

Lin Wei had been in the military camp for so long and knew all sorts of cracking techniques. She also knew how to avoid the surveillance cameras and go where she wanted.

However, Lin Qingyuan still could not figure out why Lin Wei would help Wei Jin.

Do they know each other??

“When did you know Wei Jin?” Lin Qingyuan glared at Lin Wei.

Lin Wei shook her head. “I don’t know her.”

“Impossible. If I don’t know you, why would I help her?” Lin Qingyuan thought for a while and suddenly had an unlikely guess. “Could it be that you know Xia Wanyuan?”

Lin Wei shook her head. “How is that possible? I’ve always been in the southwest.”

Lin Qingyuan also felt that it was impossible. “Then why did you help her?”

“I just can’t stand it anymore.” Lin Wei did not want to explain further. “That’s all. You can do whatever you want to me.”

Looking at Lin Wei’s sorry state, a gloating glint flashed across Su Yueran’s eyes.

Serves you right.

She was so smug that she forgot that Lin Qingyuan was the most observant. With a casual glance, Lin Qingyuan understood Su Yueran’s thoughts.

However, at this moment, Lin Qingyuan did not have the mood to pursue Su Yueran.

The inauguration ceremony was imminent. After the inauguration ceremony was the wedding. The wedding invitation had been sent out.

The most important thing now was that he needed a bride, a woman who could stop the crowd.

Who should I choose??

Lin Qingyuan’s gaze shifted and suddenly landed on Su Yueran.

Su Yueran was originally secretly laughing at Lin Wei’s sorry state in her heart when she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She looked up and saw Lin Qingyuan’s meaningful gaze.

Su Yueran had a bad feeling. Her eyes widened. “Brother, I’m from the Lin family!”

“You’re not biological.” Lin Qingyuan glanced at her with disdain in his eyes.
