"Okay, I'll see you off."
Bai Yaxin escorted He Youling and Zhang Liyuan to the outside of the courtyard. As they walked, He Youling called her son, "Where are you? Your brother-in-law is cheating on you. Your dad and I are planning to go to Zhang Yu's house. You should come too, so Zhang Yu doesn't think we have no one from our family."
The son on the other end stammered, and finally said "okay, "He Youling didn't take it to heart.
[Seriously? She's still in her brother-in-law's bed at this hour? I've never seen anyone so bold.]
He Youling stopped in her tracks. What was going on?
Could it really be...?
With trembling hands, she asked Ning Yixiu to send her the photos taken by the private investigator.
Although Ning Yixiu found it strange, her mother needed the photos urgently, so she didn't think much of it and sent all the photos to He Youling.
He Youling flipped through the photos one by one. The person had long hair down to their waist and a curvaceous figure; it was clearly a woman. The more He Youling looked, the angrier she became. A cheating man and a mistress who destroyed a family—a perfect match!
Zhang Liyuan was standing right next to He Youling. She happened to see her and casually asked, "Who is this? Could it be that your husband is also...?"
He Youling said in a bad mood, "He's not my husband, otherwise I would have killed him long ago."
When I was classmates with He Youling, I only thought she was timid and introverted. I never expected her to be such a tough person.
Zhang Liyuan suddenly felt a sense of regret for not having met her sooner.
Those were her daughter, husband, and son.
He Youling was shocked. How could this be? Did she not even recognize her own son?
And even if his son is gay, with so many men on the street, why would he specifically target his brother-in-law?
He wants his sister dead!
The children she raises would never be like that!
Aunt He still doesn't know that her son underwent gender reassignment surgery last year without telling his family. He lied all year, saying he was too busy and didn't even come home for the Chinese New Year, because he was worried his family would notice his current appearance.
Sex reassignment surgery...
He Youling's eyes rolled back and she collapsed.
"Eh eh eh."
Zhang Liyuan, who was closest to her, quickly helped her up. Bai Yaxin called 120, and after the ambulance arrived, Zhang Liyuan accompanied the ambulance, while Bai Yaxin and Lin Tingyue went to the hospital in their family car.
When they arrived, He Youling's family had also arrived.
"The patient was overwhelmed by the shock and couldn't handle it, which caused them to faint. They'll need to be hospitalized for observation for two days. Generally, there shouldn't be any major problems."
He Youling's husband, Ning Xiang, repeatedly said, "Thank you, doctor. Thank you, doctor."
After the doctor left, Ning Xiang turned to look at his two children and asked with a grim face, "What happened?"
Ning Yixiu said with tears in her eyes, "Dad, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have told Mom about Zhang Yu's affair."
Ning Xiang was shocked. " Zhang Yu cheated on me?"
Ning Yixiu choked back tears and said, "Yes."
Ning Xiang was furious. How could Zhang Yu do this to his daughter? As he paced back and forth, he noticed that his son Ning Yiting's reaction was a bit strange.
Didn't you hear me?
Ning Yiting was wearing a mask and hat, obscuring his expression, and even his voice sounded different than before, "Perhaps my sister just mistook it for something else; there's no evidence yet..."
Ning Yixiu shouted, "Brother, I have evidence, photos!"
Ning Yiting looked up at Ning Yixiu in disbelief, "You had someone investigate Zhang Yu?"
"He cheated on me, so I investigated him. Isn't that the right thing to do? Bro, how could you..."
Just then, He Youling came out of the emergency room. Ning Yixiu, forgetting about Ning Yiting, ran to see He Youling. He Youling struggled to get off the bed and slapped Ning Yiting.
Kneel down!
Ning Xiang and Ning Yixiu were both stunned.
Ning Yixiu helped He Youling and asked softly, "Mom, why did you hit my brother?"
Ning Yiting knelt down before He Youling, He Youling eyes were red as she said, "You're not kneeling to me, you're kneeling to your sister!"
"Mom..." Ning Yixiu was confused about the situation, but looking at Ning Yiting Ning Yiting, she instinctively wanted to plead for him.
Ning Yiting said, "Mom, it's all my fault. I didn't mean to be with Zhang Yu."
Together?
With whom?
Zhang Yu?
Isn't that her husband?
Wait a minute, aren't her brother and her husband both men?
Ning Yixiu's mind was almost completely blank.
Ning Yiting continued, " Zhang Yu said he would divorce Xiuxiu, and that he and I are the true love. Since this marriage is a mistake, why can't we end it as soon as possible?"
With a loud slap, He Youling slapped Ning Yiting hard across the face, causing blood to flow from the corner of his Ning Yiting.
"How could I have a son like you? You and Zhang Yu are truly in love, but what about your sister? Have you ever thought about your sister? You are... you're not even human!"
Ning Yiting said in a low voice, "I will make it up to my sister."
[The mistress compensating the wife? This is the first time I've ever heard of such a thing!]
[I have no idea what Ning Yiting was thinking. Zhang Yu said she liked him, and he believed her and even got sex reassignment surgery. In reality, Zhang Yu only liked their money. Once he had emptied their pockets, he would move on to the next target.]
[Sigh, Ning Yiting probably doesn't know this, but Zhang Yu always goes to the bathroom to vomit violently after they've been intimate.]
True love means nothing in the face of money.
"I heard Mom's in the hospital, what happened...?"
Zhang Yu arrived just then.
"Tsk tsk tsk, second brother"
You have no idea how fiercely they fought.
Lin Shengyan peeled an orange and asked nonchalantly, "How fierce could it be? Was there any blood?"
"It's more than just bloodshed... Why would anyone undergo gender reassignment surgery for a man...?"
Lin Shengyan looked at Lin Tingyue with a deep gaze. "Get to the point."
Lin Tingyue shook her head, speaking earnestly, "Being love-struck is not advisable."
Lin Shengyan: "..."
He laughed in exasperation, "You still remember this?"
"Of course."
Lin Shengyan snorted, quite proud of himself.
Lin Tingyue asked cryptically, "Second Brother, have you contacted Cheng Jinshuang recently?"
Lin Shengyan popped a segment of orange into Lin Tingyue's mouth. "Eat it."
"Waaaaah."
Lin Shengyan suddenly raised an eyebrow, as if thinking of something, and said with interest, "Besides, Cheng Jinshuang probably wouldn't want me to undergo gender reassignment surgery, would she?"
Lin Tingyue: "..."
Her gaze gradually softened with pity. [She'll sell you!]
Lin Shengyan: "Even eating can't shut you up!"
[I'm innocent! I didn't say anything.]
Lin Shengyan: "..."
It's so noisy.
Lin Shengyan got up to wash his hands, and when he came back, he was holding a lucky cat figurine. Lin Tingyue's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Is this for me?"
Lin Shengyan one thing but meant another. "Who said it was for you?"
"Fine, don't give it to me then."
Lin Tingyue snorted, and Lin Shengyan had no choice but to quickly stuff the lucky cat into Lin Tingyue's arms, awkwardly saying, "Wishing President Lin a prosperous future."
"It sounds great, I love it!" Lin Tingyue, caught up in the moment, declared ambitiously, "Second Brother, wait until I ride the waves and come back to invest in your TV series."
Lin Shengyan smiled and said, "Alright, I'll be waiting."
Lin Yuhuan and Lin Xiawan entered one after the other, each carrying a gift box.
Lin Tingyue ran over and asked expectantly, "Is this for me?"
"Yes," Lin Yuhuan and Lin Xiawan exchanged a glance, then handed the gift box to Lin Tingyue. "President Lin, may your wealth flow in abundantly."
[Hehehehe.]
Lin Tingyue opened the gift box in front of Lin Xiawan and Lin Yuhuan, and found two lucky cats, one large and one small, inside.
[Um...]
Lin Tingyue hugged the two lucky cats and turned to look at the one Lin Shengyan given her, which was placed on the coffee table.
Lin Tingyue asked, "Did you make an appointment?"
"No, Lin Yuhuan, Lin Xiawan, can't you guys be a little more creative?" Lin Shengyan rushed up to the two of them.
Lin Yuhuan said in a deep voice, "I don't think there's a rule that you can only give one gift, right?"
Lin Shengyan clapped his hands and said, "This is plagiarism, plagiarism, do you understand?"
Lin Xiawan spoke up at the opportune moment, "Second brother, what about the shops outside that sell lucky cat figurines?"
Lin Shengyan: "..."
Even more amazingly, the three lucky cats were arranged from largest to smallest. Lin Tingyue placed all three on the coffee table, looking at them with a smile, "Doesn't this prove that you are siblings?"
[If they weren't related by blood, their thought processes would be completely different.]
Lin Xiawan forward, took Lin Tingyue's hand, and pressed her cheek against Lin Tingyue's, saying, " Tingyue, you're also our little sister."
"I know, I know."
The four people looked at the three lucky cats and laughed in unison.
The next morning, Lin Yuhuan took Lin Tingyue to the company, Lin Shengyan took Lin Xiawan to the airport.
After Lin Tingyue got out of the car, Lin Yuhuan went to pick up the box containing the three lucky cat figurines.
Lin Tingyue extended her hand to Lin Yuhuan, "Big brother, shall I do it?"
"I'll hold you."
"But you're a domineering CEO, big brother..."
[Oops, I accidentally blurted out my true feelings.]
Meeting Lin Yuhuan's gaze, Lin Tingyue obediently stood still. Lin Yuhuan asked, "Can't a domineering CEO carry a cardboard box for his own sister?"
"That's possible, that's possible..."
Why is this so Mary Sue-ish?!
Lin Yuhuan smiled. "Let's go, Mr. Lin. It's my turn to be your assistant today."
"I can't accept that; I can only do it for two hours at most."
"Yes, Mr. Lin."
Lin Tingyue walked in front, while Lin Yuhuan followed behind carrying the box.
