The determination in Lin Jinyan's tone made Hong Jiu look sideways, but Lin Jinyan was practicing calligraphy without any influence, as if a human life was just an ant to her.
Before dinner, Lin Jinan brought Gu Momo to Yan Yuxuan. They were completely relieved when they saw that Lin Jinyan was fine.
After listening to Lin Jinyan talk about today's events, Lin Jinan and Gu Mo Mo had completely lost their good impressions of Zhou Yuexue. Not to mention Mrs. Liu, who had already hated her because of her greed for money and silver.
After eating and seeing Lin Jinan off, Yutong came to report: After the doctor's treatment, Zhou Yuexue was fine, but she still had to stay in bed to rest.
Lin Jinyan was not surprised after hearing this and did not ask any more questions. Hong Jiu was even more certain: Lin Jinyan hated Zhou Yuexue, and even said... she was more than just disgusted.
Before, Hong Jiu thought that Lin Jinyan was cruel and disliked her, but now that she thought about it, it was not the case. Lin Jinyan seemed to be... only cruel to Zhou Yuexue.
"My cousin must be seriously injured. She seems to have injuries on her face as well. Won't you go take a look?"
After listening to Hong Jiu's question, Lin Jinyan took out the IOU she had taken back from An Zhixian and deliberately unfolded it for Hong Jiu to see.
"My cousin is indeed pretty. Among the men I know, only Boss An is worthy of my cousin. It would be a pity if my face is hurt."
Hong Jiu blurted out: "She is not even worthy of carrying shoes."
Although he didn't name him, Lin Jinyan knew that Hong Jiu was talking about Zhou Yuexue being unworthy.
Hong Jiu knew he had made a mistake and moved his head to the side. Lin Jinyan did not ask further questions and asked Hong Jiu to bring a candle.
When Hong Jiu turned around, Lin Jinyan tore off the name written by An Zhixian on the IOU and stuffed it into her sleeve, folded the IOU in front of Hong Jiu, lit it with a candle and threw it into the brazier.
"Hong Jiu, if you follow me for a short period of time, you will part ways with me sooner or later. Just obey my instructions and do things. You don't need to worry about my affairs, let alone test them with words."
Hong Jiu watched the fire burning in the brazier reflected on Lin Jinyan's young face, making it look warm and unpredictable.
Lin Jinyan looked sideways at Hong Jiu and continued with a smile:
"If you follow me for a long time, you must be one of my own. I don't need to hide from my own people, and I will definitely protect you with all my strength."
This was the first time in Hong Jiuchang's life that someone told her to protect her, and she felt warm in her heart for a moment.
When they woke up the next day to freshen up, Yutong and Bai Zhi told Lin Jinyan the news they had learned. The two were very close now. They were young and silly and lovable. They could find out anything in the house.
The old man and the old lady were so angry yesterday that they made Ms. Liu kneel until midnight. She was not allowed to step into the Lin Mansion again in this life, nor could she enter the ancestral hall after her death.
The old lady was afraid that Mrs. Liu would mislead Lin Jinyun, so she asked Lin Jinyun to prepare for the scientific examination in the house for the past two years and visit his parents during the holidays.
The second house didn't move yesterday. This morning, under Lin Song's supervision, they only took away their belongings and not a single piece of belongings.
After Zhou Yuexue woke up, she went on a hunger strike and refused to eat. Dong'er hurriedly went to Songmaotang to beg the old lady. After the old lady got up, she probably went to Tingyuge first.
After hearing this, Lin Jinyan told Yan Yuxuan to prepare the court food later, and went to Tingyu Pavilion to visit with gifts. After saying some extravagant words, Dong'er thanked her repeatedly, but Zhou Yuexue just kept crying after thanking her.
Not long after arriving, the old lady arrived with Lin Wanrong and comforted Zhou Yuexue.
Zhou Yuexue was covered in bruises and she was crying so hard that I felt pity for him. She said that she had no shame in staying in the Lin Mansion and no shame in living.
The old lady assured Zhou Yuexue that no one in the house would say a word until she was born.
