Chapter 334: She Was Looking Forward to It
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Miao had never imagined that her adoptive parents would abandon her in this lifetime, and it was all because of Gu Zi!
Once she had secured her position as Mrs. Gong, she would trample Gu Zi underfoot. By then, Gu Zi would never be able to turn things around, and her adoptive parents would surely recognize her again.
Lin Miao could never truly sever ties with her adoptive parents’ family. She knew that her brother, Lin Cheng, would be noticed by the big boss in the future and would help him with his work. The Lin family would become wealthy, and she would never let go of such readily available resources.
Lin Miao found a way to save face and glared at Lin Laoyao and his family, complaining, “It’s all your fault for making me misunderstand my sister. I’m sorry, sister. My parents and I didn’t know about it. I didn’t mean what I said earlier. Mom, dad, let’s go. Don’t we still need to go shopping for clothes?”
Gu Shan and Zhang Mei immediately cooperated. They were at fault first, and the people on the nearby beds were casting strange glances at them. They were embarrassed to stay and wished they could find a crack to crawl into.
Gu Shan and his wife no longer paid attention to Lin Laoyao and his family, and left the ward with Lin Miao.
Only when Lin Laoyao saw that the Gu family was no longer useful did he quickly step forward to apologize to Papa Lin, saying, “Second brother, I only have this one son. He can’t go to jail. Let’s think of another way to solve this problem, I beg you!”
Old Lady Lin also shed tears, but in Gu Zits view, it seemed more like the false tears of an old crocodile when it couldn’t catch its prey, deceiving the prey into taking the bait.
She said to Papa Lin, “Son, I’m sorry. I will definitely correct my ways in the future. Please help us and let Little Jie out quickly.”
Lin Laoyao’s wife also cried and said to Mother Lin, “Second sister-in-law, I know you’ve held a grudge against me all these years. I was wrong, but Little Jie also grew up under your watch. You can’t really bear to see him go to jail, can you?
Gu Zi laughed at the side and said, “Instead of wasting time saying these things, I might as well tell you something serious. The total compensation for my dad’s emergency hospitalization and subsequent related expenses is eight hundred yuan. Remember to bring the money. By the way, I’ve also coordinated with the police station. They will notify you once.”
Upon hearing this, the three of them changed their expressions.
Although Old Lady Lin didn’t dare to scold Gu Zi anymore, her eyes were fierce, as if she wanted to devour Gu Zi.
Lin Laoyao and his wife were also heartbroken. Although their family’s conditions had always been much better than Lin Lao’er’s family, they didn’t save much money throughout the year.
Gu Zi’s demand of eight hundred yuan was like asking for their lives.
But now their son was being held at the police station. If they didn’t pay, their son would definitely go to jail. They were in a real dilemma. In the end, Lin Laoyao’s family left the ward in disgrace.
Mother Lin looked at her daughter with guilt in her eyes, “Little Zi, I’m really sorry for putting you in this position.”
Gu Zi took Su Le from Mother Lin’s arms and said, “It’s okay. Let the nurse take care of dad for a while. We’ll go out and buy some necessities. I asked the doctor earlier, and dad still needs to be hospitalized for observation.”
Mother Lin had to take care of Papa Lin in the hospital for a long time. The things they brought from home were not enough. They needed to buy some daily necessities, as well as some fruits and snacks.
At the department store, Mother Lin said, “Take me to buy some yarn. When
I’m bored in the hospital, I can make a pair of tiger-head shoes for Lele.”
Gu Zi took Mother Lin to buy yarn. As soon as they finished buying the yarn, they ran into some familiar faces. It was the Gu family who had just visited the hospital.
Gu Shan and Zhang Mei were a bit embarrassed to see Gu Zi because of what had happened earlier, but it wouldn’t be appropriate not to greet her since they had run into each other.
They stepped forward and said, “Little Zi, we misunderstood earlier. Don’t take it to heart. Lin Miao, take out the invitation and give one to your sister.”
Lin Miao knew that her parents wanted to invite Gu Zi to her wedding banquet.
If Gu Zi came, Su Shen would also come, and her parents would not give up on such a wealthy son-in-law.
Of course, Lin Miao also hoped that Gu Zi could come because she was looking forward to the scene of Gu Zi witnessing her becoming Gong Zhan’s wife.
Lin Miao took out a red invitation from her bag and handed it to Gu Zi, saying, “Sister, you’ll come to my wedding banquet with Gong Zhan, right? Gong Zhan told me he hopes you can come too..”
