Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: Mrs. Lin Goes Alone
As the two conversed, Su Xiansui, dressed in a white lotus leaf off-shoulder top and a water-blue openwork mermaid skirt, elegantly approached.
She had been scolded by Lin Zhiya last time and was still somewhat scared upon seeing her, softly calling out, "Mrs. Lin."
Then she raised her head, hesitating to say to Lin Teng, "Aunt, grandma asked me to tell you sheâs greeting guests upfront and canât come to the back. If..."
She quickly glanced over at Lin Zhiyaâs direction, bit her lip, gathered courage, and repeated the message from Old Madam Lin, "If Mrs. Lin is waiting outside alone, she can come over; if there are others, then forget it."
She feared Lin Zhiya would be upset, and hastened to wave her hands and explain, "Itâs not me, itâs grandma who said this."
Lin Teng didnât expect Old Madam to have Su Xiansui convey such a message; his mature face showed a hint of embarrassment. He awkwardly touched his nose and stood up, trying to lighten the mood jokingly, "Mom really, Zhiya, wait here for me, Iâll go talk to mom."
After hearing from Su Xiansui the wishes of the old lady, Lin Zhiyaâs smile faded. She pursed her lips and stopped Lin Teng, "Brother, no need."
"Since mom is busy, I wonât trouble the family today. Iâve prepared a gift for mom; please pass it to her."
She took out a small velvet box from her handbag and firmly placed it in Lin Tengâs hands, "Inside is a jade Buddha from Ciyuan Hall, itâs been consecrated."
Lin Teng felt uneasy, the small box in his hand felt as heavy as thousands of pounds, weighing heavily on his heart. His throat was dry as he looked at Lin Zhiya, "Zhiya, itâs been a long time since youâve been home, take this rare chance to have a meal before you go."
Lin Zhiya, holding Rong Yanâs hand, was very firm, "No, Rong Yan and I will go home to eat."
The same âhomeâ, but the homes of Lin Teng and Lin Zhiya mentioned one after the other were two different places.
Bitterness filled Lin Tengâs mouth, he shifted his hopes to the well-behaved little boy beside him. He bent down, softly coaxing the pretty little baby, "Duidui, are you hungry? How about Uncle takes you to have something delicious?"
Lin Zhiya frowned and angrily called out to him, "Brother!"
She had specifically brought Rong Yan here for the family to acknowledge Rong Yanâs status; otherwise, she would not have come at all. She had already lowered her stance as if begging, and yet they still took a high and mighty attitude, not willing to see Rong Yan. She was not going to stay!
Lin Teng asking Little Baby was clearly being dishonest!
Lin Teng knew his behavior was disgraceful, but he still hoped for a family meal together. He bent down, his mature face showing a kind smile, gently looking at the tender little boy, he reached out, "Duidui, why donât you come with uncle? Your grandmother is having a birthday and really wants to see you."
Lin Zhiyaâs anger was uncontrollable, her face covered with a layer of frost, about to burst out in rage.
Then a childish voice rejected, "No!"
Lin Teng was stunned, "..."
"Why?"
Little Baby naturally said, "Because my mom isnât going, if mom doesnât go, Iâm not going, I want to stay with mom!"
Rong Yanâs feelings were complex, clutching her hand tightly.
Hearing this, Lin Teng felt playful and whispered, "But uncleâs and grandmaâs home have a lot of delicious food and fun things. Duidui, you could play at uncleâs house for a while, and then uncle will take you back home, okay?"
Li Duidui remained unmoved, his snow-white tender little face showing indifference as if he had no interest in what was being said, holding Rong Yanâs hand, "I also have them at my home, and at grandmaâs house!"
