Chapter 612: Chapter 611: Calm Down First

Jiang Mingyuan drove Lin Xia back to the cosmetics store.

On the way, Jiang Mingyuan earnestly said, "Lin Xia, think it over carefully, don’t have too many concerns.

I know you probably don’t want to transfer the store to me because of your cousin."

That day, when Lin Chun was hospitalized, he had brought Song Zhiya to visit her.

Song Zhiya’s deliberate move to go back to find Lin Xia had confirmed some things for him from another angle.

Lately, he had also had an upfront and honest talk with Song Zhiya about his past feelings for Lin Xia, as well as his thoughts on their future together.

Song Yinran, Song Zhiya’s father, neither supported nor opposed their relationship, and he had noticed that.

Jiang Mingyuan, coming from an ordinary background with no wealthy family, had earned his money through business solely on his own efforts. Perhaps he could never reach the level of Song Zhiya’s family, even if it took him a lifetime.

But he had a heart full of passion and strived to work hard; he believed that one day he would succeed!

Nevertheless, he was not sure whether Song Zhiya and her family could wait that long.

Lin Xia chuckled dryly, "Big Brother! Indeed, I do have such concerns!

But rest assured, I will think it over carefully.

Anyway, my brother’s results have not come out yet, and we’re not in a hurry to leave.

So for the store, it doesn’t matter whether it’s cashed out sooner or later.

By the way, has my cousin said when she might return?"

In truth, her hesitation indeed involved Song Zhiya.

If it were before, she would have happily handed over the store the moment Big Brother expressed his wish to have it;

but now, with Song Zhiya in the picture, she was forced to consider multiple aspects.

After all, it wasn’t just about her but also related to Big Brother and Song Zhiya’s relationship.

"She’s attending a classmate’s wedding and plans to visit her brother’s girlfriend afterward, so it will be a long while!"

Lin Xia nodded to show she understood.

She had heard about Song Zhiyi’s girlfriend but had yet to meet her.

Jiang Mingyuan drove steadily, turning to glance at Lin Xia with a light smile, "Lin Xia! I always feel that our relationship has become distant since you got married!"

"Well... Big Brother! It’s not that we’ve grown apart, but I have to grow up and stand on my own two feet, right? I can’t always come to you for everything, can I?"

Jiang Mingyuan smirked self-deprecatingly, "True!" He was about to say something else but changed his mind, "By the way, let’s pick a day to bring your godmother to the city, so we can all have a meal together!

Once you finish up these matters and head over to Lu Zheng, we won’t have many chances like this!"

Lin Xia appreciated his not probing further and quickly agreed, "Sure, you guys pick a time, I’m always free! We’ll see when my godmother is available."

Lin Xia had always been infinitely grateful to Auntie Zhao and had really regarded her as her own kin, so she felt somewhat reluctant to leave this time.

Meeting again in the future might not be as convenient as it is now.

When Lin Xia learned that Lin Aiguo had visited their home and had strong objections to them selling the house, she felt particularly ironic.

"What right does he have to object? Does he have any right to interfere at all?"

This house was something they had worked hard to buy with their earnings; they could sell it if they wanted to, without needing Lin Aiguo’s input.

Lin Dong echoed, "Exactly! Big Sister! Brother and I didn’t pay him any attention! He left angry, and we didn’t even see him out!"

Lin Chun’s attitude was very resolute, "Xiaoxia! We don’t need to worry about what he thinks, the house is definitely getting sold!

I haven’t told Dongzi about going to Grandpa’s place and I think we should keep it a secret for now and only tell them when we’re about to leave!"

"Fine! We’ll talk about it when the time comes!" Lin Xia was not afraid of Lin Aiguo and their antics, no matter how many came, she would not indulge them, but she really didn’t want to see their fussing faces and get annoyed.

However, the day was bound to come sooner or later.

On the other hand, Lin Aiguo, with a belly full of fire, returned home gasping for breath.

Liu Shuqin, seeing his iron-gray, gloomy face, asked carefully, "Boss! Why are you back so soon? Are Lin Xia and the others busy?"

It was just past lunchtime, and Lin Aiguo had already returned, with such a bad complexion, it was obvious without guessing that he definitely hadn’t eaten there!

She felt a nagging concern in her heart, wondering what could have happened!

Lin Aiguo erupted in curse, "Busy with what! Each one as stubborn as an old pig’s back! If I hadn’t gone there this time, I still wouldn’t know what they’re sneakily up to!"

Having finished speaking, Lin Aiguo took a fierce drag on his cigarette, feeling as if his heart, liver, spleen, and lungs were all hurting from anger.

As a father, couldn’t he have a say in the major issue of selling the house?

He felt that no matter whom he talked to about it, everyone should agree with him.

He had always thought that the relationship between them had eased, and it was no longer as intense and hostile as it used to be.

But it wasn’t until today that he realized it was all wishful thinking on his part.

In their eyes, he wasn’t anything important as a father, at most just an ornament!

And Lin Chun, after this incident, also seemed somewhat off; he always felt that he no longer had the same respect and filial piety towards him.

"Boss! You’re so angry! Anger hurts the body; calm down first!" After advising him for a bit, Liu Shuqin became even more curious, "What happened actually? Lin Dong’s results haven’t come out yet, have they?"

"They haven’t! I heard they’ll be out at the end of the month!" Lin Aiguo angrily told his mother, "They want to sell the bungalow and move to live on the third floor of Lin Xia’s place!

How could they sell such a good house, even with the extended clay and brick business shops in front? What a waste to sell it, right?"

Liu Shuqin screamed, "What? They want to sell that house? What are they thinking? How can they come up with such an idea each time?"

Liu Shuqin had only been to that place once when Lin Xia got married and she took a liking to it at first glance; hearing that it was to be sold, her shock was no less than Lin Aiguo’s.

"Who knows what they’re thinking! I even advised Lin Chun, it’s better not to sell it!

What about in the future, when it’s time for marriage and finding a wife, where will they get a house? Lin Xia is married and has her in-laws; could they buy another house for them? What kind of situation would that be?

But those two just stick together, defiantly confronting me, not listening to a word I say!"

Lin Aiguo felt angry when he thought about how neither of the young men followed him, each acting like wild tigers.

Liu Shuqin’s eyes darted around, and she recovered from the initial shock, "Boss! You can’t think like that, you’re well-intentioned, wanting them to think more about the future.

But maybe Lin Chun and Lin Dong think you’re trying to drive a wedge between them!

Besides, Lin Xia’s maternal grandfather is very wealthy and influential. When their wedding day comes, could he possibly let his two grandsons suffer?"

Liu Shuqin would get depressed every time she thought about how they couldn’t rely on Yu Wanhua’s connection anymore since he had passed away.

Therefore, as soon as Lin Aiguo spoke, she immediately thought of Lin Xia’s maternal grandfather’s family.

Lin Aiguo scratched his thinning, gray hair restlessly, "Maybe that’s what they’re thinking too! I was so angry earlier that I really forgot about their grandfather!"

Liu Shuqin fell silent for a while, "Boss! I just have this nagging feeling, why suddenly sell a perfectly good house? Could something be going on?

When we went to visit Lin Chun in the hospital, no one mentioned this..."

Lin Aiguo also frowned in thought, "Yeah! I also find it strange! If that house is sold, Lin Qiu can’t run his shop! What are they trying to do?"
