Chapter 135: Chapter 135: She Had Long Been Coveted

So, on the surface, he appeared calm and composed, but behind the scenes, chaos was brewing endlessly. He continuously handpicked all sorts of beauties for Huo Qinglin and created opportunities for them to meet.

Huo Qinglin truly lived up to expectations—almost every woman Yan Ting pushed towards him, he indulged in and sampled her charms.

As a result, Yan Ting currently held in his hands more than twenty records of hotel rendezvous involving Huo Qinglin, along with photographic evidence of him embracing more than twenty women of varying styles and allure.

Of course, all of this was intended for one purpose: finding the perfect moment to throw them in Lin Banxia’s face, making sure she opened her eyes wide to see the truth.

But then, the opportunity suddenly presented itself—in the mess caused by her outburst at her grandmother’s birthday banquet, Yan Ting saw another way to approach her.

There was no longer a need to lurk in the darkness, shoving those pictures in her face to make her reflect. This woman might seem foolish on the surface, but her mind was likely as clear as a mirror.

In truth, seeing how devoted she was to protecting the pear garden for the two elderly family members made Yan Ting feel a pang of heartache for her.

Lin Banxia finally landed her very first job. To her surprise, it turned out to be a project related to design.

However, the job wasn’t directly tied to sophisticated elements of the project, nor did it require her specialized skills. She was merely a position tracking assistant for project progress.

Still, for someone like Lin Banxia, who had never worked before, she was already quite satisfied.

Earlier in the breakroom, Yan Ting had saved her, and now, he’d given her a job. Thinking about it, this cold ice block didn’t seem as heartless and unfeeling as he looked.

No, no, no—what was she thinking?

Lin Banxia immediately shook her little head vigorously. She needed to stay clear-headed and remember: Yan Ting did not truly love her. Between her and the marriage certificate lay a stark agreement.

Thinking about the contents of that agreement filled Lin Banxia with bitterness she couldn’t express.

Fine, marriage is marriage—but why did she have to give him a child?

If she gave birth to a son, maybe heaven would show her mercy, but if she had a daughter... wouldn’t she be scorned and rejected by the Huo Family?

No, she must find an opportunity to discuss this matter with Yan Ting seriously. She’d agree to bear a child, but whether it’s a boy or girl, she’d only give birth to one. If he doesn’t want a daughter, then she won’t have another.

...

Hospital. In the quiet hospital room, the sound of a woman’s aggrieved sobbing echoed intermittently.

Luo Mei, along with several sisters from her maternal family, had gathered together. Even Huo Anya had been specially summoned to attend this "meeting."

Huo Anya glanced at her second aunt, Luo Qin, whose sadness had tipped into despair. The scandalous photos circulating online had gone viral, her son studying abroad had called to say he wanted to sever all ties with her, and her husband had already filed for divorce. Her life had plummeted from heaven to hell in an instant, as if overnight.

Her eldest sister, Luo Qian, who lay paralyzed on the bed, wore a face so dark and grim it seemed frozen in rage—but she dared not express her anger outwardly.

Luo Mei looked at her sisters—broken, ruined—and her once-charming face carried nothing but a bitter storm of resentment.

Yan Ting was a force they definitely couldn’t challenge, but Lin Banxia? That woman, she wouldn’t let her off so easily.

"Mom, look at how badly Aunt and Second Aunt have suffered from Lin Banxia’s schemes. Seeing them like this hurts. We can’t let that woman have her way—no matter what, we must find a way to take revenge!" Huo Anya, too, harbored grudges against Lin Banxia, yet she was helpless as Lin Banxia held incriminating evidence against her, forcing her to tread carefully.

Luo Qin suddenly jumped up from the sofa, ready to storm outside: "I’ll buy a knife! I’ll make sure I take Lin Banxia down with me and avenge all of us!"
