It was late at night when Lin Manqing returned to the villa, but she didn't expect that everyone at home had not yet slept.
My father sat on the sofa in the living room with a serious expression, and the mother next to him seemed to have a sad look on her face.
My younger brother Lin Yun was playing games with his mobile phone.
Even Butler Luo is here.
Lin Manqing felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong and asked, "My parents, what happened?"
"Manqing?" Yan Huimin was a little surprised, "Why are you back? Didn't you say that there are activities in the school and you won't come back on the weekends?""
"Oh, the event was temporarily cancelled. "Lin Manqing said.
"Then why don't you tell your family and ask the driver to pick you up? "Yan Huimin blamed, "How dangerous are you alone?""
"I am so old, what danger is there? "
Lin Manqing said this, but she couldn't help feeling guilty.
When I remembered my experience on the road, I was a little scared, and then my mind was filled with Li Muchen's appearance and what he said, which could not be removed.
"This is not allowed if there is any danger. "Lin Qiusheng said sternly, "You are the daughter of the Lin family, and the Lin family is the one who goes out. Do you think I am willing to send you a driver and a bodyguard? Outside, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us. Where have you been back so late?"
"Just went out to play with classmates. "
"Which classmate?"
"Zhang Jie, you also know Zhang Yiping. "
"Zhang Yiping? Is it the son of Zhang Genmao, chairman of Yongqing?"
When Yan Huimin heard about being with Zhang Jie, she felt relieved and said, "Okay, okay, my daughter has not interacted with messy people either. Don't ask the truth, give her daughter some freedom. "
Lin Qiusheng snorted coldly: "What does Zhang Genmao's son want to do? I don't know yet? He is not worthy of his Zhang family if he wants to climb up to my daughter's high branches. "
Yan Huimin gave her husband a blank look and said, "No matter how bad the Zhang family is, they are also a wealthy man in Hecheng. Yongqing Group and us also have cooperation. I want me to say that I would rather let Manqing marry Zhang Genmao's son than she would marry that country bumpkin. "
Lin Manqing heard something wrong, "Mom, what are you talking about? What are the country bumpkins? Why not marry?"
Lin Yun, who was playing with his cell phone, said, "Sister, you have a fiancé, you don't know, right?"
"What?" When Lin Manqing heard the word "fiance", for some reason, the first thing that came out of her mind was Li Muchen's name.
Lin Yun said: "You have a fiancé, who was a child marriage that grandpa had made for you. Today, they came to the door with a marriage contract. "
Lin Manqing opened her eyes wide, "Impossible! Lin Yun, what are you talking about?"
"Tell me, if you don't believe me, I will ask my mother. My mother sent me away. Later, my grandfather found out. My grandfather was so unhappy that he summoned everyone in our family, and even my uncle and others came. My grandfather said that if he didn't get the person back, he would drive his mother out of the house and go back to Meicheng. "
"Mom, is this true? What's going on?" Lin Manqing asked loudly.
Yan Huimin glanced at her husband, sighed, and said, "Manqing, mom didn't mean to hide it from you. She originally thought that this was just the engagement she had made with her when your grandfather was drunk for a while back then. So many years have passed and I have never mentioned it again. But who would have thought that the person would come to the door today. "
"Who is it?" Lin Manqing asked.
"I heard it was a Taoist priest. "Lin Yun rushed to say with a bad smile on his face, "Sister, it's good to marry a Taoist priest. I'll help me get a few pills in the future so that I can live forever. "
Lin Manqing glared at him fiercely: "Shut up!"
Lin Yun stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.
Lin Qiusheng asked, "Huimin, have you investigated this person's family background? Our dad will not get engaged to someone for no reason. "
Yan Huimin said: "Can I not investigate? Eighteen years ago, after our father told me about this, I have investigated it. The man had no father or mother, and lived with his grandfather and grandchildren, who lived by picking up trash. Later, the old man passed away and the child disappeared. I thought he was dead, but who would have thought that he would be back after more than ten years. "
"No, Is it just a trash picker?" Lin Yun was very disappointed, "I thought he was the descendant of some secret sect. "
"Then where has he been in the past ten years?" Lin Qiusheng asked.
Yan Huimin shook her head: "I don't know this. But judging from his appearance today, he was wearing a torn dress and tied with a bun, he really looked like a Taoist priest, and he must have been living a good life. He calculated that when we Manqing became an adult, he hoped to be our Lin family's son-in-law to make a comeback. "
"If I don't marry someone, I won't marry no matter what he does. "Lin Manqing shouted loudly, "What era is it, and he is still married, feudal!"
"Sister, go and tell grandpa. "
"OK, I'll go find grandpa. "
Lin Manqing said that he was about to leave.
"Stop!" Lin Qiu shouted sternly, "Your grandfather is over 80 years old and is in poor health recently. You are not allowed to cause trouble for him. There is nothing to say about this matter. If the person is not found, it will be fine. If the person is found,
I'll hold an engagement banquet for you right away. "
"Dad!" Lin Manqing wanted to say something else.
Lin Qiusheng gave an order: "Okay, go back to your room to rest, butler Luo, arrange the young lady. Recently, she will not be allowed to go anywhere except the school. "
Lin Manqing had no choice but to stamp her feet and return to the room angrily.
Back in the room, she lay on the bed, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
She comes from a famous family, is beautiful and a top student. She is the pearl in her hand at home and is surrounded by stars outside. No matter where she goes, she is the center of the world and the object of attention.
However, she can't even be free in love.
A person who had never met before suddenly came to the door with an engagement. He thought about it and knew that this person was not very good.
Grandpa actually wanted her to marry such a person.
The more Lin Manqing thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he wanted to cry.
She took out her cell phone, looked through the address book, and wanted to find someone to talk to.
But she found that there was no real close friend who could let her tell these things.
If she was not the eldest lady of the Lin family, I wonder how many people would treat her as friends in this address book?
Finally, her eyes remained on the name Li Muchen.
She hesitated and sent a message:
'Have you fallen asleep?'
Li Muchen's reply is:
'Got asleep'
Lin Manqing was disappointed and was about to put down her phone, but she received another one:
'Wake up now'
She smiled and replied:
'Sorry, I woke you up'
'fine'
Lin Manqing thought about it for a long time and finally wrote a passage:
'What would you do if someone forced you to marry a man you had never met before?'
It took a long time to receive a reply from Li Muchen:
"I'm a man, no one forces me to marry a man"
Lin Manqing couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of Li Muchen's typing speed, it is rare to reply such a long sentence.
'My family wants me to marry someone I have never met before. What should I do?'
Lin Manqing was just complaining, and she didn't expect Li Muchen to give any useful opinions.
Unexpectedly, Li Muchen will return soon:
'Marry'
Lin Manqing said angrily:
'Why are you like this (angry), I have never seen that person before, what if you are old, ugly and bad'
Li Muchen replied: 'I'll do it for you'
Lin Manqing said curiously: 'You can tell fortunes?'
It was a long wait, and Li Muchen's reply was sent:
'Your fiancé is handsome, elegant, talented, and a god.'
Lin Manqing lay on the bed and finally couldn't help laughing.
The unpleasantness just now was wiped out.
...
In the living room downstairs.
The children were all gone, and Lin Qiusheng pinched his forehead and said, "Huimin, please worry more about this matter and find people as much as possible. Business has been very unsuccessful recently. There is still a meeting tomorrow morning, so I will go and rest first. "
Yan Huimin nodded, only she and the butler Luo Mingsha were left in the living room.
"Is the matter done?"
"All done. "
Butler Luo didn't know that something had happened to the person he sent, and thought they had killed Li Muchen, and left Hecheng as in advance.
The two million naturally fell into his own pocket.
"Are you sure that the kid will not go back to Hecheng after taking the money?" Mrs. Lin was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, he won't show up again. "Butler Luo said confidently.
"Just madam, you..."
"It doesn't matter, the old man can't really drive me back to Meicheng. "Mrs. Lin was also very confident, "Tomorrow, we will send everyone out to find it, and let the old man know that we have done our best. "
