Seeing her mysterious appearance, Zheng Shaoqiu couldn't help but increase his curiosity.

It seems that this contract is far more important than he imagined.

An hour later......

Lin Xiaoyue parked the car in a remote alley.

After Zheng Shaoqiu got out of the car, he looked around and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect that there was such a poor place in Pingjing......

The surroundings are full of old buildings, low houses, which look dilapidated, and the small rooms are crowded with people, all looking out with numb expressions.

The so-called main road is just a winding dirt road, and there are many small traders and vendors, and the space seems to be a little narrow.

As if seeing the puzzlement in his heart, Lin Cengyue explained: "This is a shantytown, the development is very bad, and they are generally outsiders, greedy for cheap housing prices, so they choose to settle here." ”

"Isn't it hard for you to imagine?"

"In this bustling city center, there is such a slum. ”

Zheng Shaoqiu hesitated for a moment when he heard this, but still nodded.

"Follow me. ”

Lin Cen Yue glanced at him deeply, and then squeezed directly into the crowd.

The two walked along the old alley for about fifteen minutes and came to a dilapidated tiled house.

In front of the house is a small yard, meticulously maintained, planted with many green plants.

In the center of the courtyard, there are a lot of messy and trivial things, such as broken copper and iron, broken fans, and broken refrigerators.

Lin Xiaoyue stopped suddenly, turned around, and looked at Zheng Shaoqiu with a serious face: "This is my home." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Shaoqiu's face was as calm as ever, nodded, and didn't say anything.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at his face for a while, but still didn't notice anything unusual, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In fact, she was right, this can also be considered her home......

"Come in with me. ”

She walked into the campus and into the low tiled house.

A square table, two rattan chairs, and a few yellow snakeskin pockets are scattered in the corner, and a few murals are pasted on the wall, all in a rustic style.

There is a room on the east and west sides, which is small in size and very simple in furnishings.

Lin Xiaoyue first poured a glass of water, handed it to Zheng Shaoqiu, and then motioned for him to sit down.

She took a deep breath.

She didn't want to reveal these things to Zheng Shaoqiu, and she had always done so.

Every time she came back here before, she came back alone.

But now after all, the contract is involved, and she vaguely feels that she shouldn't hide it anymore, otherwise, she will feel very awkward in her heart, as if there is a big mountain pressing on her chest.

After a while, she sorted out her thoughts and said, "The reason why I value this contract so much is because it is a test. ”

"The test I finally begged for. ”

This contract can bring considerable profits to the Lin family, so the old lady also attaches great importance to it.

At that time, there were many people staring at it, and Lin Cen Yue was the most inconspicuous one.

You must know that her temperament has always been indisputable, but this time it is very different from before.

That's because it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The reason why she is not favored in the Lin family is because of the deceased parents.

But beyond that, there's another layer of relationship.

Her mother is not a native of Pingjing, she is considered an outsider, and she is an ordinary woman who can no longer be ordinary.

A high-ranking family like the Lin family pays the most attention to the right family, so when his father proposed this marriage, he was strongly opposed by Mrs. Lin, and even threatened to let him choose only one between the Lin family and this woman.

For many people, this choice was not difficult, because the Lin family was already a towering giant tree at that time, and its status was prominent.

And that woman is really ordinary, she can't be more ordinary.

But......

What shocked everyone was that her father actually abandoned his identity as the Lin family and would rather break with the old lady than choose that woman.

Afterward......

There is Lin Cen Yue.

With the passage of time, perhaps the old lady has softened her heart and her attitude is not as resolute as before.

Later, the whole family was able to move into the Lin family's courtyard, and since then they have lived a completely different life from before.

A whole new world!

"At that time, I was young, and my eyes were full of curiosity, thinking that this yard was so big, and there were many people my age. Lin Cen Yue's eyes were a little dazed, and she murmured softly: "So I like it very much." ”

After a few seconds of silence, she continued: "But later, I understood, this place just looks a little bigger, eats better, and is really not as happy and fulfilling as the life of our family of three crammed into a small room before." ”

Zheng Shaoqiu listened quietly and never said anything to disturb.

At this moment, Lin Cen Yue suddenly sighed: "Until later, my parents had an accident......

Although, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

However, the rights and wrongs of the Gaomen Courtyard are far more intriguing and cruel than ordinary families, and if you are not careful, you may be imprisoned.

And Lin Cen Yue, who lost the protection of her parents, was already isolated by everyone, and because of her mother's identity, she was even more despised.

On weekdays, the old lady turns a blind eye to these things, and only takes care of them when she can't bear them, and this is still the eldest son who is afraid of death.

So, Lin Cen month all these years.

It's bitter.

"Because of my mother's low status, my grandmother has always refused to let her enter the ancestral hall as the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, let alone let her be buried with my father. ”

Lin Cenyue's expression was a little depressed, and her eyes were slightly red.

Zheng Shaoqiu took over the conversation and continued: "So you took this opportunity to put forward a condition with the old lady, and at the same time put yourself in a desperate situation?"

"Not bad. ”

Lin Cen Yue raised her head and looked at him calmly: "I grinded for half a month before my grandmother promised me that as long as I signed this contract, I would make my mother right." ”

After a pause, the corners of her mouth curled into a look of self-deprecation: "I think the reason why she agreed so happily may be because she thought that I couldn't finish it at all...... After all, I and those people are not at the same level at all......"

Zheng Shaoqiu pursed his lips, and a different color flashed in his eyes: "Aren't you afraid of death?"

He believed that Lin Xiaoyue must have known the danger before making this decision.

But even so, she did not hesitate, like a moth to a fire.

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid of death. Lin Cenyue's eyes were a little distracted, and she said in a trembling voice: "But I'm more afraid of living alone." ”

After a pause, an inexplicable smile appeared on her face, and her expression was soft: "My mother is a very good person, in my heart, she has always been Bai Yueguang." ”

"When I was ignorant, she taught me many, many ......"

"Before she died, in my vague impression, she had always been very wronged, because those people always troubled her. ”

"I was young, and I could only watch. ”

"Now...... I've grown up ......."

"I felt like I was going to do something for her. ”

"I think at least give her a place to go, she shouldn't be treated like that. ”

"It's not her fault. ”

"Actually, I was a little scared at first, but when I think about it, I'm not afraid. ”
