Chapter 142: Depreciation
depreciate
Lin Muyan stroked Xia Yiyi's beaten cheek, gently dropped a kiss, and said pityingly: "Is this why you refuse to have lunch with me?" You're being bullied again, aren't you? ”
In response to Lin Muyan, Xia Yiyi's shallow breathing sound, Lin Muyan kissed Xia Yiyi's cheek again, helped her cover the quilt, and then turned around and left the room.
Lin Muyan returned to the study again, just made a phone call, knowing that Xia Yiyi was called to the mansion again this morning, and he didn't have to think much to know whose masterpiece that slap was. Lin Muyan wondered if he was too indulgent to those people, so he let them hurt Xia Yiyi again and again.
Yu Xia sat at home, her heart suddenly panicked, and she felt that something was going to happen, so she got up and walked around the living room.
Lin Jiansheng came out of the study and saw Yu Xia walking around with an uneasy face, his expression was slightly solemn, "Why did you call Xia Yiyi over today?" ”
"Of course it's for Xiaoyu, now Xiaoyu's whereabouts are unknown, aren't you worried?" Yu Xia asked Lin Jiansheng angrily, "Now that Xia Yiyi's wings are hard, I really regret raising a snake by my side." ”
Xia Yiyi was right, if Xiao Yu hadn't blindly done something wrong, Mu Yan wouldn't have treated her like that. Don't think I don't know what happened on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, you say, did you arrange it? Lin Jiansheng asked Yu Xia angrily.
Yu Xia was shocked, but tried to calm down and said, "Are you doubting me? ”
"Even if you are not the mastermind, you are an accomplice, and you know what you have done." Lin Jiansheng's words were sharp, which made Yu Xia open her eyes with a weak heart, "You think that you can help Xiaoyu by looking for Xia Yiyi, you are harming Xiaoyu and yourself." ”
"What do you mean?" Yu Xia was shocked, and when she saw Lin Jiansheng's solemn expression, she rushed over and grabbed him excitedly and asked, "Did Lin Muyan do something again?" Is he trying to drive us to death? ”
"He didn't do anything." Lin Jiansheng didn't know if he was feeling unwell or uncomfortable, his face looked bad, and the words he said were less full of energy than before.
Yu Xia looked at Lin Jiansheng suspiciously, "Impossible, your son is a flawed person who will be repaid, it is impossible not to make any moves." ”
Thinking of slapping Xia Yiyi in anger today, Yu Xia was a little afraid, her strength was very strong at that time, and the palm prints on Xia Yiyi's cheeks were clearly visible, and it was impossible for Lin Muyan not to see it.
"Now that you know his character, you and Xiaoyu are still touching his bottom line?" Lin Jiansheng questioned sternly, Yu Xia moved her lips, and did not refute.
After a long while, Yu Xia lowered her posture and asked, "Husband, can you go and talk to Mu Yan and let him let go of Xiaoyu?" If he lets Xiaoyu go, we will take Xiaoyu to live abroad and won't bother him anymore. ”
The family banquet on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, because of Mrs. Yu's trouble, she also slapped Xia Yiyi, although Lin Muyan did not get angry on the spot, but on the next day Mrs. Yu received a video of Yu Chao becoming a vegetative person, Mrs. Yu was broken, emotional movement caused a cerebral hemorrhage, and now half of her body can't move and lies on the bed.
And Lin Muyu mysteriously disappeared that afternoon, Yu Xia knew that she was arrested by Lin Muyan, she sent someone to look for her, but found nothing, in desperation, she waited until Lin Muyan and Xia Yiyi returned to China, planning to let Xia Yiyi come forward, but she didn't expect Xia Yiyi to refuse her, all things were beyond her control.
"Do you think he'll listen to me, my father?" Lin Jiansheng smiled self-deprecatingly, and his expression suddenly became fierce, "You still stay at home honestly for me, don't trouble Xia Yiyi again, don't make any more moths, if you still want to live in Xiaoyu." ”
Yu Xia was shocked in her heart, and a fear spontaneously arose in her heart, "Husband, do you know anything?" Was Xiaoyu really arrested by Lin Muyan? ”
"I don't know." Lin Jiansheng avoided his gaze, not to mention that he really didn't know, even if he knew something, he couldn't say anything.
After many years of husband and wife, Yu Xia knew that Lin Jiansheng must have something to hide from her, but if Lin Jiansheng didn't say it, she couldn't say anything. Just a person sitting there worried.
"Don't!" Xia Yiyi was startled, shouted, and opened her eyes, the whole person had not recovered from the dream just now, and her big eyes looked at the ceiling a little distractedly.
"Yiyi." Lin Muyan heard the voice, walked out of the bathroom, and looked at Xia Yiyi worriedly.
"Mu Yan." Xia Yiyi looked at Lin Muyan, and the person slowly woke up, she sat up and saw that there were only a few wall lamps in the room, and outside the window, it was already dark, she slowly sat up from the bed, covered her face with her hands and seemed to ease her emotions, and after a while, she put down her hand and asked, "I've been sleeping for a long time?" ”
"I slept for more than four hours." Lin Muyan sat down on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand and stroked Xia Yiyi's cheek, "You fell asleep in the bathtub, wait."
will ask Aunt Ping to make some ginger tea and drink it, don't get sick. ”
Xia Yiyi nodded gently, feeling Lin Muyan's fingertips caressing her cheeks as if they were nothing, I don't know if she was too careful, Lin Muyan's fingertips kept touching the place where she was beaten.
"Mu Yan." Xia Yiyi grabbed Lin Muyan's hand and pulled it down and put it on her lap, "I had a nightmare just now." ”
"Can you tell me what nightmares I had?" Lin Muyan asked softly.
"I forgot." Xia Yiyi stretched out her hand to hug Lin Muyan, she put her head on Lin Muyan's shoulder and asked softly, "Muyan, why have you been looking for your mother, have you ever thought about giving up?" ”
"Nope." Lin Muyan was silent for two seconds before answering, and his calm tone made it impossible to hear the emotions in his heart. "Why did you suddenly ask about my mother?"
"Just asking." Xia Yiyi raised her head and looked at Lin Muyan, under her calm expression, there was a trace of sadness hidden in her eyes, "Have you ever hated your mother?" She left you when you were very young. ”
"Nope. Although I have a vague impression of her, I vaguely remember that she was a very gentle woman. And later in my grandfather's letter to me, I was even more sure that my mother was a gentle and good woman, and that her departure may have been forced to go. Lin Muyan gently stroked Xia Yiyi's long hair, "Why did you suddenly talk about this topic?" Do you want to find your parents? I can help you. ”
"No, I don't want to look for them." Xia Yiyi's reaction was a little intense, which made Lin Muyan a little surprised, Xia Yiyi also found that she was too excited, she took a deep breath and explained a little far-fetched: "I'm doing well now, I don't want to go to them, maybe they don't want to be bothered by me." ”
Lin Muyan didn't speak, just looked at Xia Yiyi silently, although he said that he didn't want to go to his parents, but the expression on his face was obvious
was so sad, Lin Muyan hugged Xia Yiyi into her arms in distress.
"I'm hungry." Xia Yiyi pushed Lin Muyan away with a smile, and suddenly showed a bright smile, "What delicious did Aunt Ping cook tonight?" I wanted to cook for you myself, but I fell asleep. ”
Xia Yiyi lifted the quilt as she spoke, only to find that she was wearing a bathrobe, and because of sleeping just now, the neckline of the bathrobe was wide open, and she quickly pressed the neckline shyly.
"Yes, the clothes that Aunt Ping helped me wear?" Xia Yiyi bit her lip and looked at Lin Muyan.
"It's the clothes I helped you wear." Lin Muyan looked at Xia Yiyi calmly with a smile on her face.
A little hope in her heart was dashed, Xia Yiyi blushed and didn't know how to face Lin Muyan, she pointed to the cloakroom shyly, and then hurriedly ran into the cloakroom.
Lin Muyan smiled, but the smile quickly faded, Xia Yiyi's abnormality must be related to returning to the mansion today, and she must have said a lot of ugly words, Lin Muyan could even imagine what kind of harsh words Yu Xia would say.
"Mu Yan, I'm fine." Xia Yiyi changed her clothes and ran out, seeing the ruthlessness in Lin Muyan's eyes, although it was only for a second, it still surprised Xia Yiyi, and even wondered if she was wrong.
Lin Muyan didn't miss the surprise in Xia Yiyi's eyes, but he didn't explain, but as if this thing didn't exist, he took Xia Yiyi's hand and left the room casually.
The next morning, Lin Jiansheng and Yu Xia were eating breakfast, and suddenly a news caught Lin Jiansheng's attention, and he even put down his chopsticks and picked up the newspaper and looked at it seriously.
"What's wrong?" After a nightmare, Yu Xia's spirit was a little weak, and seeing that Lin Jiansheng's expression was wrong, she asked.
"The land we invested in last year has depreciated." Lin Jiansheng's expression made it impossible to see what he was thinking.
"Depreciation?" Yu Xia's face changed drastically, "How can it be devalued?" Now the real estate is on fire, the land is tight, and we invested 1.5 billion yuan in that piece of land, how can it depreciate now? ”
Lin Jiansheng glanced at her meaningfully, but did not speak. Even a woman like Yu Xia knew that the land would not depreciate, how could he not know? It's just that now that something like this is happening, you can know what is going on if you think about it.
"Lin Muyan, it's Lin Muyan, right?" Yu Xia quickly figured out the reason, their land had been sitting there waiting for appreciation, and now it suddenly depreciated, someone must have done something from it, and this person couldn't think of anyone else except Lin Muyan.
"I'll look into this." Lin Jiansheng said with a solemn expression.
At the beginning, he invested in that piece of land because he saw the prospect of appreciation, and that money was not a small amount, especially when Lin Muyan acquired a large number of Lin shares in his hands before, and now although he is not short of food and clothing, his income has shrunk seriously, plus the expenses in recent years, he does not have a lot of funds in his hands, so the depreciation of this land is a heavy loss for him.
"What else is there to investigate, isn't it obvious now?" Yu Xia laughed angrily and mocked, "No one treats you as a father, and you still treat him as a son, it's ridiculous." ”
Lin Jiansheng's face became even more ugly because of Yu Xia's words, he threw the newspaper on the table hard, and then got up to leave.
Yu Xia didn't care if he was angry or not, what he wanted to do now was to keep the land, her maiden family had been bankrupted by Lin Muyan, and her daughter's whereabouts were unknown, if she didn't get some money in her hands, wouldn't it be a bamboo basket to swallow her anger after so many years in the Lin family?
