Besides Ying An, Fan Qing also knew the password to the Lin Family's gate, and the two slow-witted people suddenly realized.
Ying An the New Year's gifts he had just left behind because he was picking up a card, and said, "I really did come to pay my respects for the New Year."
"He was still in the crew last night, and he came to wish you a Happy New Year this morning," Lin Shengyan, his mouth never holding back. "I think you have ulterior motives."
After Lin Shengyan, he looked at Lin Tingyue.
Lin Tingyue is currently--
[Beep, million card, beep, million card, beep beep beep, all million cards.]
Lin Shengyan: "..."
Ying An: "..."
Lin Tingyue, can't you be a little more ambitious? Lin Shengyan you.
Seeing that Ying An and Lin Shengyan were both looking at her, Lin Tingyue deftly put the card into her pocket and said, " Mr. Ying, let me help you carry it."
"Hey, hey, hey..."
The New Year's goods eventually ended up in Lin Shengyan's hands, and if he didn't make a purchase, he would seem foolish.
Bai Yaxin, Lin Rusong, and Lin Xiawan also came downstairs.
The three were also surprised to see Ying An.
Bai Yaxin asked, " Little Ying, have you had breakfast?"
"Auntie, I've already eaten."
"Why don't you stay for lunch?"
"No need, my assistant is still waiting for me in the car. I'll be leaving in a bit."
Lin Shengyan snorted and whispered, "I knew Ying An was acting strange."
Lin Tingyue said, "Then shall I take you?"
Ying An readily agreed, "Okay."
Lin Shengyan, "Then I'll give it to you too."
Ying An (changing expression): "Okay."
Before leaving, Ying An looked at Bai Yaxin and Lin Rusong, "Uncle and Aunt, Happy New Year."
"Okay, drive carefully, and give our regards to your parents."
"Okay, Auntie."
On the way to the Ying An, Lin Tingyue asked, " Mr. Ying, are you filming the movie that got you recognition?"
"Yes."
"Then I have a favor to ask," Lin Tingyue, looking at Ying An with Xingxing eyes.
Ying An's eyes darted around, his expression revealing unease. He said, "Okay."
He mentally reassured himself that he couldn't refuse any of Lin Tingyue's requests.
Lin Tingyue moved closer to Ying An, "May I bow to him?"
Lin Shengyan: "..."
What is it?
Ying An: "... Okay."
" Mr. Ying, your film is sure to be a huge hit."
Lin Tingyue clasped her hands together, bowed to Ying An, and said very sincerely, "Yes, yes, yes."
The three unsuspecting people by the French windows were so shocked that their pupils dilated in disbelief.
What are they doing?
Even rapid progress isn't this fast, is it?
Lin Shengyan, who watched the whole thing. "."
Ying An laughed and said, "If I had known, I should have worn a theatrical costume."
[My goodness, Mr. Ying is such a kind person.]
Ying An was happy to be friend-zoned.
Ying An opened the car door and said, "Shall I go?"
"Good."
After Ying An got into the car, he saw Lin Tingyue knock on the window again. Ying An rolled down the window and bent down to look at Lin Tingyue, whose eyes were sparkling. Lin Tingyue said, "I forgot to wish you a Happy New Year."
Didn't we talk about that last night?
"It's different face-to-face."
"Okay, Happy New Year."
Lin Tingyue waved, "Goodbye."
After the car drove away, Lin Tingyue turned her head and found that Lin Shengyan was staring at her with a very strange look.
Lin Tingyue nudged his elbow. "Second Brother, what's wrong?"
"Yesterday, and what about yesterday? How come I didn't know?"
No wonder Ying An came over so early in the morning.
"Of course you wouldn't know I made that phone call to him."
"You're quite self-righteous about it?"
"Yes, for example, if you called Cheng Jinshuang last night, I wouldn't have known."
Lin Shengyan: "..."
Damn it, he was instantly killed.
Lin Tingyue had originally Lin Shengyan, but seeing his reaction, she asked suspiciously, "Second Brother, did you really call Cheng Jinshuang last night?"
Lin Shengyan mumbled, "How could that be?"
[Second Brother really hasn't forgotten his original aspirations.]
Lin Shengyan: "..."
He walked back quickly, and as soon as he entered the gate, Bai Yaxin and Lin Rusong pulled him away.
Bai Yaxin mimicked Lin Tingyue's earlier actions and asked, "What happened?"
Three people, three pairs of eyes, all staring at Lin Shengyan.
Lin Shengyan, "Worship the gods."
The three of them. "Huh?"
Lin Tingyue walked in humming a song, her eyes crinkling as she said, "I just prayed to the God of Wealth."
The three people. "..."
After breakfast, the family went to the old house.
Before we even stepped inside, we could hear bursts of laughter and cheerful conversation coming from the old house.
Bai Yaxin to herself, "That's strange, I can hear Liao Hong's voice in there too."
[It's my aunt. My aunt, her husband, and their son came to visit for the New Year.]
Bai Yaxin frowned. Ever since visiting Liao Hong in the hospital, Bai Yaxin hadn't kept up with the situation in Liao Hong's family. Only now did she learn that Liao Hong's husband had returned.
What's wrong with Liao Hong? Has she forgotten that her husband eloped with her daughter-in-law and that her son cheated on her?
[After Tan Xing'an eloped with his daughter-in-law, he discovered she was only after his money. He promptly broke up with her and returned to a warm home with his wife and children... How outrageous! If she wasn't after his money, did she think she was after his good looks?]
What's most infuriating is that Liao Hong actually forgave her, Bai Yaxin couldn't understand.
"See? I told you so, Ru Songya and the others are here."
Seeing white
When Yaxin came in, Liao Hong went up to her and affectionately took her arm.
Bai Yaxin: "?"
She subconsciously looked at Lin Jiaxin, Lin Jiaxin gently shook her head at her.
Liao Hong chatted with Bai Yaxin for a long time, being extremely enthusiastic towards her. It was only with great difficulty that Bai Yaxin managed to sit down with Lin Jiaxin.
As soon as she sat down, she asked, "What's wrong with Liao Hong?"
"I don't know either. When I arrived, she was already like this. She was very friendly to everyone, and she had just had a major hemorrhage, giving out quite a few red envelopes."
As soon as Lin Jiaxin finished speaking, Bai Yaxin saw Liao Hong take out four red envelopes and hand them to her four children with a big smile on her face. It was impossible to tell what she was up to.
Bai Yaxin hesitated and asked, "Changed your personality?"
Lin Jiaxin wasn't quite sure either, "Yes... right?"
"Actually, it's good to live a good life. I don't want to think too badly of people."
"That's right, but..." Lin Jiaxin lowered her voice, "She forgave Tan Xing'an, which really baffles me."
"Me too."
Liao Hong then suggested, "With so many of us, let's play mahjong. We can easily make a few tables."
Lin Tingyue silently raised her hand. "Auntie, I don't know how to play mahjong."
"It's so simple, your aunt will teach you."
Since his divorce from Xu Yinan, Lin Hong has been experiencing a series of misfortunes. In addition, he hasn't played mahjong in a long time. When Liao Hong mentioned it, he felt an itch to play and had already ordered someone to clean up the mahjong parlor.
"Aunt, let me teach my sister." Lin Shengyan forcefully squeezed between Liao Hong and Lin Tingyue.
Liao Hong's dissatisfaction vanished in an instant. "It's fine if you teach me; it'll help you siblings develop a better relationship."
Lin Shengyan a forced smile, "Auntie is right."
After Liao Hong left, Lin Tingyue asked, "Second Brother, are you really going to teach me?"
A smile appeared in Lin Shengyan's eyes. He said, "How could this be fake?"
If you can't teach me, will you call me a pig's head?
Lin Shengyan: "?"
He gritted his teeth and said, " Lin Tingyue, what about trust between people?"
Lin Yuhuan and Lin Xiawan walked over, and Lin Yuhuan said, " Tingyue, if he calls you a pig's head, your older brother will take action."
Lin Xiawan patted Lin Tingyue on the shoulder.
Lin Shengyan: "..."
He really wanted to burst into tears.
Neither Jiang Yin Lin Gaoyi knows how to play mahjong. If we exclude the two of them and Lin Shengyan, there's one more person who needs to be played.
Lin Qiyan offered, "How about I call later? I'll sit with my brother for a while."
Lin Ruqiao said, "So that's how it is..."
His words were interrupted by a servant who had just entered. The servant said to Lin Hong, "Master, we have a visitor."
Lin Hong asked, "Who is it?"
"They said it was one of your old mahjong friends."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruqiao reminded him, "Dad, it seems like all your old mahjong friends..."
Not very good.
He remembered that there were even examples of daughters-in-law and fathers-in-law being together.
It would have been better if Lin Ruqiao hadn't brought this up, because the mere mention of it Lin Hong's stubbornness.
He said sternly, "What's wrong with my mahjong buddies? Compared to them, the students at the senior university are even more infuriating. Let them in."
The old man was determined to do things his own way. Lin Ruqiao's wife, Jiang Yun, tugged at Lin Ruqiao's sleeve. Lin Ruqiao knew what his wife meant, and since there was no point in continuing to persuade him, he stopped talking.
A short while later, the old man's mahjong partner came in.
"Hey Old Lin, Happy New Year! It's so hard to see you these days."
" Old Wei, what are you saying? These are your son and daughter-in-law, aren't they?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Wei Guo introduced, "This is my son Wei Ming, and my daughter-in-law Kang Shi. Are you two getting ready to play mahjong?"
"Yes, we were just short of people, your arrival is perfect."
The mahjong table is finally complete!
Wei Guo, Kang Shi, Lin Ruzhi, and Lin Hong were at one table; Liao Hong, Bai Yaxin, Lin Jiaxin, and Lin Ruzhi's wife Cao Min were at another table; Lin Rusong, Lin Xiawan, Lin Yuhuan, and Lin Tingyue at another table; and Tan Xing'an, Tan Qing, Lin Ruqiao, and Jiang Yun were at yet another table.
