Chapter 68: The Truth??Illusion???
At the beginning of November 2016, when Lin Ting and Lin Jun had set a wedding date, Lin Xi immediately bought an apartment in Beijing with his own money. No why, just so that my sister can have a home to go out.
After all, Lin Xi's hometown is too far away from Beijing, so they can't let Lin Jun fly to his hometown to pick up the bride. So the only way to do that is to go out from Beijing. And if you want to go out of Beijing, in addition to the house, there is only a hotel.
The latter Lin Xi and Lin Jun were unwilling, and Lin Xi was now worth a lot of money, so he simply finalized an existing house in Beijing. And until now, it's finally been decorated.
followed, Lin Hui and Pang Yan also brought some relatives from their hometown to Beijing. Because at this time, it was only about a week before Lin Ting's wedding.
After taking people from the airport to the hotel and arranging, Lin Xi took his parents back to the new house. Looking at this house, Lin Hui couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "A few years ago, our family didn't want to buy a house in the capital, even if it was to buy a house in full in the county seat of our family, it was very difficult." Looking back now, you two siblings have grown up. ”
"Yes, in the blink of an eye, Xiaoting is about to get married. Pang Yan was also very moved to look at Lin Ting and smiled very gently.
"Alright, Dad, don't sigh. Just got off the plane, so let's take a break. I remember telling you before, tonight, Brother Shangjun and the old man went out to dinner together, and by the way, the bride price matter was also dealt with. When the time comes, you will see who is present in your hometown, and tell me quickly, so that I can arrange a place for tonight. Looking at Lin Hui's smile, Lin Xi also chuckled very contentedly, and then told the matter.
After speaking, Lin Xi muttered a little depressedly, "I'm curious, when Brother Jun went back with us last time, why didn't he just settle the bride price." ”
Lin Hui nodded, "It seems to be your old man Lin's decision." ”
"Ah, then I don't have anything to say. When Lin Xi heard this, he didn't dare to speak.
But it's okay, the bride price, some people will give it half a year in advance, and some people will give it shortly before the wedding, which all depends on the customs, and it is beyond reproach.
Soon, the time came for night. After sending Lin Hui and the others to the hotel box for dinner tonight, Lin Xi returned to the hotel arranged before and picked up two respected old people from their hometown. In fact, judging from the way of the wedding in the city, there should be no need for this step, because it is a matter between two families. But if you look at the wedding customs in the countryside, you can't get rid of these troublesome situations.
In addition, Lin Tianyou is also an old man who misses the old days, but he also respects the customs of Lin Xi's hometown very much. Agree with such a strange and vulgar way of witnessing.
Then at tonight's dinner, Lin Xi finally saw Lin Jun's big deal. Because his future brother-in-law's move is really not ungenerous, first the apartment in Manhattan, New York was directly assigned to his name, even including the two million-dollar supercars, and then he booked a villa for Lin Xi in Shanghai. In addition, Lin Tianyou also gave Lin Hui and Pang Yan a suite from his side, plus a good luck bride price of 888,888 yuan.
Only later did I know that this Qian Linjun was originally going to come out by himself, but he was knocked by Lin Tianyou with a stick. Say what your son is married, when does Lao Tzu have money, when do you need to come forward. So it became the current situation, Lin Jun gave his future brother-in-law a big gift, and then Lin Tianyou gave Lin Hui, the future in-law, another real bride price.
Just this bride price, Lin Xi said at the time that he could be a gentleman, no need to work, sit and wait for death.
And this bride price also frightened the two old men in the Linxi clan. The highest bride price they have ever seen is nothing more than hundreds of thousands, and they have only heard of it. Now look at the situation this time, if you really calculate all the assets of this bride price, the bride price unit given by Lin Jun and them this time is calculated in tens of millions.
That night, Lin Xi and his family were also a little distressed after returning to the new house.
Lin Xi and Lin Ting were okay, they didn't feel anything. But Lin Hui and Pang Yan couldn't sleep well, and they felt that the bride price they received this time felt as if they were climbing each other. In fact, during dinner tonight, Lin Hui mentioned many times that there was no need to give so many dowries, but it was just that Mr. Lin was not the old man.
So now I'm distressed, people have given so much bride price, how much does it take for my daughter's dowry to not be looked down upon by outsiders. Although Lin Xi and Lin Ting have been telling them on the side that Lin Jun's side will not care about this aspect, and they also need to care about this idea.
But Lin Hui stuffed the two of them with one sentence, "Our two families know each other, so there's no problem." But even if you're afraid of outsiders gossiping, it's not that you don't know what those people's mouths are. ”
At this time, the time also came to more than two o'clock in the morning. After seeing that his father was so distressed that he smoked most of the pack of cigarettes, Lin Xi simply didn't think much about it, and said directly, "Then I'll directly give more than half of the shares of my studio to my sister as a dowry, it's the same anyway." ”
"No, that's your studio, how can this be. When Lin Ting heard this, she was anxious. And she knew that Lin Jun would definitely not like to marry like this, after all, he had never thought about getting anything from Lin Xi's family. What you give out is like and respect, and what you want is just to get your lover and affection.
Lin Hui and Pang Yan didn't know much about Lin Xi's work, so they didn't know what to say at this time.
In the end, Lin Xi didn't say anything more to Lin Ting, and directly finalized the decision. And Lin Hui, as the head of the family, also agreed with his son's decision after thinking about it. After these two men made a decision, Lin Ting and Pang Yan glanced at each other and didn't speak again.
Even if Lin Jun ran over early in the morning to explain to Lin Hui for most of the day after learning about this incident the next day, he still did not save the situation. In the end, I can only accept it, who calls someone else his father-in-law, is it possible that he plans to do it against his father-in-law before he gets married?
However, after experiencing this incident, Lin Jun also gave Lin Xi a compensation from the other side, and even said that he gave Lin Xi a piece of cake that was bigger than the one he took out himself. That is, he exchanged a small part of the shares of his studio for the part of the shares that Lin Xi gave to Lin Ting.
This exchange, Li Ran's first reaction after knowing about it was to look at Lin Xi, the face of the perennial cold cover, and couldn't help but show a trace of shock and surprise, and then complained, "You have made a lot of money." ”
But of course, this thing was done without Lin Hui, although Lin Xi also refused very strongly. But in the end, he was still under the oppression of his elder sister and Lin Jun, and he was defeated.
After solving the biggest thing before this wedding, everyone's thoughts were finally put on the next official wedding. Some costumes and flowers, hotel reservations and banquets were confirmed again under Lin Jun's explanation.
And some of his friends who have a good relationship with him have also rushed over from other countries. Lin Ting and Lin Jun were also too busy to stop during the period before the wedding.
As for Lin Xi, it was a little unusual to leave Beijing and return to Shanghai during such an important period of time.
On the night of November 4, Lin Xi looked at the figure sitting in front of him and had a headache.
"Jessica, tomorrow is your fan meeting, why are you so free to ask me out to meet. Don't you have to rehearse? Or are you already very confident? ”
That's right, it was none other than a phone call from Jessica that pulled Lin Xi out of Beijing. The content of the phone call at that time also made Lin Xi still vivid at this time. One of the most important sentences is this: 'Lin Xi, I seem to have heard about something. On the night of Yuna's fan meeting, did the two of you live in the same room anymore? ’
Just this sentence made Lin Xi scratch his head wildly, and then flew back to Shanghai from Beijing and came to Jessica.
Looking at Lin Xi's somewhat serious expression, Jessica also smiled, "It seems that you still care about the situation that night." ”
"What are you going to do, I haven't figured out anything about this matter, where did you find out? He pursed his lips slightly, and the somewhat dry and cracked skin of his mouth rubbed against Lin Xi's tongue, so that his spirit could be very focused on the problem at this time.
It's just that even if he concentrates his spirit very carefully, he is still distracted in the end. The meeting with Lin Yun'er in London not long ago suddenly came to mind, and the answer she had to herself at that time. As soon as he thought of this, Lin Xi's eyebrows couldn't help frowning.
"Then do you want something to happen? Or didn't something happen?" Yes, Jessica didn't seem to see Lin Xi's abnormality at this time, her slender little hand slowly stirred the cup of coffee in front of her, and then smiled slightly, looked at Lin Xi and asked rhetorically.
The way this question was asked, which made Lin Xi also feel shocked, "What, you mean you know better than me what happened that night?"
"No, I mean. Doesn't it all depend on what you think?If you think something happened, what are you going to do?Do you feel sorry for Taeyeon and break up with Taeyeon again?Or do you choose to be sorry for Yuna?" At this time, Jessica seemed to be incarnated into a charming snake girl, luring Lin Xi into the trap she had already laid step by step.
This passage also evokes a conversation in Lin Xi's memory. At that time, it seemed that it was the time when his relationship with Kim Taeyeon was completely exposed.
……
……
"White shirt, I really didn't expect you to really get together with Taeyeon. ”
In front of the computer, Qiqi looked at the news on the screen with some surprise, and then said with emotion.
On the other side of the phone, after listening to his words, Lin Xi also smiled a little embarrassedly, "Hehe, I'm lucky." I guess I saved the earth in my last life, and I've used all my luck in this life. ”
"Awesome. Qiqi also chuckled. Then, after hesitating for a moment, he said, "By the way, Yun'er suddenly found me just now and said something." Originally, she asked me to keep it a secret, but after thinking about it, I should tell you about it. Then how you choose is up to you. ”
"Yun'er?" Lin Xi was stunned, why did this little deer Bambi jump out again.
"Hmm. Qiqi nodded, and then said, "Do you remember the night the meeting ended?"
At the beginning of this sentence, Lin Xi felt a not very friendly atmosphere on the day of the call, but he still responded, "Well, remember." I drank the slices, and the next day it was inexplicably like that. ”
"Actually, that night, it was Yuna who asked me to get drunk on you. Qiqi thought of the picture when Lin Yun'er talked to him just now, gritted his teeth, and finally gave this hint. If it goes a little deeper, it can't be talked about anymore. Because in the meeting just now, he promised Lin Yun'er to keep it a secret.
But just this sentence was enough to make the smart Lin Xi think of a lot of surprised possibilities. After the whole person was flustered for a long time, he asked back a little incredulously, "Qiqi, don't tease me." Is this true? Or are you kidding me?"
"Although after learning about your relationship with Taeyeon, I do envy you and want to blackmail or trick you. But this one thing is not fake. If you don't believe me, you can call Situ and Saolong. After sighing lightly, Qiqi also made his own answer very seriously.
"Damn. ”
After hearing Qiqi's serious answer, Lin Xi immediately spit out a national scolding, "Peat, your pit is worse than the current pit." I said why did you pour me wine like crazy at the time, I thought I was just envious of me knowing Yun'a and them, but I didn't expect it......"
"Come on, we didn't know about your relationship with Taeyeon at the time? Besides, to change your position, Yuna appeared in front of you at that time, and you just got drunk with your friends, and there was nothing to lose, and people still had the illusion of throwing themselves into their arms. As friends, shouldn't we assist in a wave?"
As a result, a series of situations happened later, when Lin Xi faced Lin Yun'er, he became a little flustered.
……
……
The picture turned back to reality, Lin Xi was still in a daze, and Jessica also looked like she was winning. But at this time, Lin Yuna, who was in Seoul, South Korea, was lying on her sofa with a smile on her face, as if she had got the result she wanted.
Because she had just gotten the news, that is, Jessica suddenly asked a few people in her team for some news. And the ontology of the news is exactly what happened on the night of my meeting in Shanghai.
Thinking of this, Lin Yun'er's smile became even brighter.
