Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!

Chapter 982 - 982 Continued Hinting

982 Continued Hinting

Seeing that Lin Yu was unmoved, Hu Guo was about to use his ultimate move. “Yun Xi has such a good life. There were so many people around her who were helping her. Zhou Lin and Grandpa Zhou were both on her side. I heard that Yun Xi has a lot of other male friends who are all devoted to helping him without asking for anything in return.”

“How can someone be so lucky? Unlike me, I don’t even have a single person around me who can help me,” Hu Guo said pitifully.

In fact, she was talking about how Yun Xi was climbing up the ranks by relying on relationships. Hu Guo’s words were deliberately leading Lin Yu to suspect that Yun Xi and Zhou Mo were in an ambiguous relationship.

Hu Guo wanted to ignite Lin Yu’s anger, so she pretended to be embarrassed and pulled on Lin Yu’s hand guiltily.

“Sister-in-law, I didn’t do it on purpose. Please don’t take it to heart. After all, Yun Xi and Zhou Mo were once engaged. No one will be able to get past this.”

“But I really didn’t mean to bring it up. I just wanted to fight for justice for you.”

Hu Guo’s eyes were fixed on Lin Yu, trying to find some clues from her face.

As expected, Hu Guo noticed that Lin Yu’s eyes had dimmed.

This was a good opportunity. It meant that Lin Yu had taken her words to heart. It also showed that her provocation had worked.

Hu Guo immediately realized that he should press on with her victory. She quickly continued, “But you have to think about what I’m saying. If Yun Xi is with Zhou Lin, her seniority will be much higher than yours. The Zhou family had such a huge business. Wouldn’t Yun Xi have the final say then? You’re also a part of the Zhou family, so you’ll have to listen to Yun Xi when the time comes.”

“If Yun Xi marries into the Zhou family and bullies you, I’m sure you won’t have a good time in the Zhou family. At that time, Yun Xi will be suppressing you in every way. Even Zhou Mo might not be able to speak up for you.” Hu Guo’s plan was well thought out.

She immediately analyzed all the pros and cons of the Zhou family. She even tried to use these to win Lin Yu over.

However, this plan was ultimately wrong. Even though Lin Yu had her head lowered and did not say anything, she understood what was going on.

Hu Guo’s words were just to sow discord. It could not cause any harm to Lin Yu, and she did not care about it at all.

However, Hu Guo thought that she had hit on Lin Yu’s weak spot and continued to try to win her over, “However, I do like you. You have a good personality and you’re pretty. I think we get along well.”

“Maybe we can go out and have fun together in the future. We might even become good friends. Naturally, there won’t be any conflicts.” Before they even entered the Zhou residence, Hu Guo had already started to fantasize. She was trying to move Lin Yu with these words.

However, Lin Yu only smiled. Lin Yu had come into contact with Yun Xi before this and knew what kind of person she was.

Although she had not met Yun Xi many times, she could already understand some things through some simple understanding.

Furthermore, Lin Yu had always been grateful to Yun Xi. She was grateful that Yun Xi had given her a chance to show off her talents.

Other than that, Lin Yu had also seen Yun Xi and Zhou Lin together. She had never seen Yun Xi like that before, and no one could compare to the sweetness.

Therefore, Yun Xi truly loved Zhou Lin, and Zhou Lin also had deep feelings for Yun Xi. Lin Yu was grateful for this.

Lin Yu was neither jealous nor resentful of these. She was only envious.

She envied the two of them for being able to be a couple, for them to hold hands and talk and laugh.

She did not expect someone to badmouth Yun Xi in front of her and even hint that Yun Xi was using tricks to get together with Zhou Lin.
