Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties
Chapter 201 - 200 Going Crazy

Chapter 201: Chapter 200 Going Crazy

Lin Xia didn’t believe a word Lin Aiguo said; it was just a temporary attempt to soften his stance.

Once he felt he was no longer in danger, he would likely only become more troublesome.

Yet, watching her father being hauled away like capturing a criminal, observing his desperate struggles, the anger on his face mingled with fear,

she admitted that she felt incredibly confused and dully pained at the same time.

She didn’t want this!

In her past life, certain things hadn’t occurred yet, and she didn’t want to delve into revenge with him; she merely hoped to live anew, keeping to their own paths without interfering with each other.

But he had forcefully pushed her to this point. If she let him continue this shameless behavior unchecked, she knew her life would devolve into chaos!

Should they, having finally found some peace and contentment, see it all shattered?

Therefore, she couldn’t afford to be merciful; when it was time to be harsh, she had to be decisive!

She would rather face damnation after death, as long as she didn’t indulge them while she was alive!

Lin Aiguo struggled to turn around and look at the indifferent Lin Xia, realizing that his daughter had resolved to settle accounts with him.

He began loudly pleading with passersby, telling them he was not mentally ill.

"I really don’t have a mental illness! It’s all that kid’s fault! Help me!"

"I’ll give you money! I have money!"

The stall owners nearby knew what was going on.

But no one stepped forward to do or say anything, partly out of fear of Jiang Mingyuan, and also because they had witnessed Lin Aiguo’s unreasonable antics.

Actually, no one expected the usually reserved and smiling Lin Xia to act this way; it was completely unexpected.

Seeing no one stand up for him, Lin Aiguo began to curse Lin Xia wickedly, using the vilest language.

"Lin Xia! You will not die a good death!"

"I should have never let you live, I should have drowned you in a pool of urine!"

"You...."

His objective, aside from showing everyone how ruthless and despicable Lin Xia was,

was also to get Qian Chunli and Lin Yu, who were hiding somewhere outside the greenhouse, to hear him and come out to vouch for him, to prove he was not mentally ill!

Everyone in the greenhouse watched the commotion, observing Lin Aiguo’s screams and struggles, and the silent Lin Xia and Jiang Mingyuan, as if it were a show.

Ignoring the inquiring glances of the crowd, Jiang Mingyuan looked towards the nearby Lin Xia.

He still deferred to her, if she softened at this moment and didn’t want Lin Aiguo to be taken away, then he would support her decision.

After all, everyone knew the hardships one faced once taken to a place like that.

Until Lin Aiguo, who kept shouting, was forcibly taken away by two in white coats, Lin Xia also clenched her lips and remained silent.

But from her reddening eyes, he could see that she was also enduring great torment inside.

He understood her, knowing she wasn’t naturally cruel but was instead generous and righteous.

However, due to her family’s issues and Lin Chun being weak, she had no choice but to harden her heart.

Jiang Mingyuan made a decisive call, "Lin Xia! Let’s close up early today!" Dealing with Lin Aiguo had indeed taken too much of their time.

After all, causing such a scene had caught the attention of nearby stall owners. Even if the usual relationships were okay, everyone would take their own measures into consideration.

He didn’t want to leave Lin Xia exposed to the scrutiny and gossip of others, even if there was gossip, he didn’t want her to see or hear it.

"Okay!" Lin Xia silently gathered her clothes as sweat pooled into her palms. Even though she could only faintly hear Lin Aiguo’s strained curses, her heart was still clenched in a knot.

Lin Aiguo thought that once he got out of the greenhouse, he could see Qian Chunli and Lin Yu, and then he would be rescued!

Once rescued, he wouldn’t care about anything; he wanted to tear Lin Xia apart! He wanted to kill her!

But even when he was pushed onto the vehicle, he still hadn’t seen the two of them.

Where had these two forced him to run off to?

He was furious and anxious, almost going insane!

And his frantic struggles and fits of madness were all taken by the staff at Anding Hospital as signs of psychiatric illness.

They further restrained him forcefully to prevent him from hurting anyone during an episode.

After Qian Chunli and Lin Yu finished their dumplings, they slowly walked back to the greenhouse.

When they returned, it was just as Lin Aiguo was being taken away.

The mother and daughter found a place to sit down and continued to wait, waiting...

Occasionally, they quietly speculated about what exactly Lin Aiguo was up to inside.

But no one had the courage or the boldness to peek inside or inquire.

Lin Xia and Jiang Mingyuan had closed up their stall early and gone home.

Jiang Mingyuan delivered some goods, then went to Lin Xia’s house.

When Lin Xia opened the door for him, he could tell she had just washed her face, her pale face flushed around the nose and eyes.

But he didn’t say anything; instead, he followed her into the living room and sat down.

"Er-ge! Please have a seat," she said.

Lin Xia went to pour him some water, and afterward, they sat on the couch in silence for a while.

Jiang Mingyuan took a sip of water and said, "Lin Xia! Don’t you have anything you want to say? If you have anything, tell Er-ge; don’t keep it bottled up. I’m willing to be a competent listener."

He had come over precisely to give her some guidance.

Anyone would feel confused facing such a situation.

At this moment, Lin Xia indeed hoped for someone to talk to; she needed a listener.

Moreover, since Er-ge had helped her handle the whole thing, she didn’t feel awkward about it.

Lin Xia said softly while holding her forehead, "Er-ge! The truth is, I’m very confused! When I decided to send him there, I really was determined to make him suffer!

But when they came to take him away, I felt terrible. Although he has never been good to any of us and always resorted to hitting and scolding, he is still my biological father...

Am I too harsh? A bit too unrecognizable as his family?" She said, lowering her head and covering her face with both hands, using the opportunity to hide her vulnerability and guilt.

She had seen the way those onlookers looked at her, their expressions, but she deliberately ignored them.

She didn’t care about others’ opinions; she was only troubled by her own actions.

Jiang Mingyuan licked his lips, took a moment to choose his words, and then spoke, "Lin Xia, I can understand your feelings! After all, the blood relationship is there! But you really shouldn’t blame yourself... Think about it, since you moved out, how many times you had to move, hide, and how he treated you all, you wouldn’t think so much...

Actually, when he was making a scene there, I was also thinking about how to deal with him for you, but he didn’t smash the stall or do anything, so it was really not easy to handle...

Also, have you considered what might have happened if you hadn’t acted that way and he continued to cause trouble?

You bought a house so close to the greenhouse. If he found you here, could you and Lin Qiu live peacefully at home..."
