Bai Yueguang returns to China, don't be a spare tire, divorce Lin

Mrs. Lin's anger burned in her chest, and the marks of time on her face seemed to be even deeper because of her anger.

She was already middle-aged and thought she had nothing to ask for in life, but she never expected that her own son would resort to fake marriage with someone else to fool her.

When Lin Xuan stepped into the threshold of the Lin family's old house, Mrs. Lin was sitting in the middle of the living room, holding a cup of warm wolfberry and red date tea in her hand, her eyes as cold as ice.

"Kneel down!" Mrs. Lin's voice was as biting as the cold wind, without a trace of warmth.

Lin Xuan had just stepped over the threshold and hadn't yet stood firm when he heard the old lady's unquestionable order.

"Madam, please calm down. Your health is more important." The housekeeper persuaded her anxiously, fearing that the madam would get sick from anger.

Lin Xuan didn't say a word, but knelt silently in front of Mrs. Lin with his head lowered.

Behind Mrs. Lin were the tablets of the Lin family's ancestors. The whole room was filled with a solemn and depressing atmosphere.

"Are the things circulating online about you and Ye Wanqing true?"

Mrs. Lin questioned, her tone full of unquestionable majesty, not giving Lin Xuan a chance to answer, and then she spoke sternly.

"How dare you say anything untrue in front of the spirit tablets of your grandfather and your father?!"

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and decided to confess, "It's true, mother."

He slowly raised his head and looked at Mrs. Lin with a firm gaze, without any dodging.

With a loud "bang", the wolfberry and red date tea in Mrs. Lin's hand was thrown violently to the ground next to Lin Xuan, splashing tea and scattering fragments.

The scalding tea even splashed onto Lin Xuan's arm, but he seemed unaware and just whispered:

"I was wrong, Mother."

"You were wrong? You lied to me for six whole years, and now you want to let it go just because you said you were wrong? Lin Xuan, do you still have me as your mother in your eyes?!"

Mrs. Lin's voice trembled with anger and she almost cried out.

"I'm sorry, mother, I'm really sorry." Lin Xuan lowered his head even lower. Apart from apologizing, he had nothing else to say at this moment.

Mrs. Lin woke up after a brief faint. Although her anger had subsided, the resentment in her heart still lingered. Even if Lin Xuan admitted his mistake sincerely, it would not be able to immediately heal the scars in her heart.

Looking at the old lady's increasingly rapid breathing, Lin Xuan frowned: "Mother, I will bear it if you want to hit me or scold me. I just ask you not to hurt yourself."

Mrs. Lin heard this and a cold smile appeared on her lips. "Now you know I'll be angry? When you did that, did you ever think about today?"

Lin Xuan pursed his lips and was speechless for a moment.

He had no intention of getting married, but with Mrs. Lin urging him to get married day after day, Ye Wanqing's proposal seemed to be his only safe haven.

At first, he thought the proposal was absurd, but when he saw Ye Wanqing's confident look, he felt an urge to make her taste the regret.

However, he never expected that this nominal Mrs. Lin could play the role so perfectly.

Mrs. Lin had a deep understanding of her son, which made her feel a little relieved.

In fact, the housekeeper had privately reminded her earlier that perhaps she had been too harsh in pressuring Lin Xuan six years ago.

This realization was like a breeze blowing across the lake of her heart, stirring up ripples and subtly changing her state of mind.

Although Mrs. Lin's anger towards Lin Xuan had subsided, it was not completely gone. Instead, her anger quietly turned to Ye Wanqing.

"What benefits did she get?" Mrs. Lin knew very well that Ye Wanqing did not squeeze too much from Lin Xuan during the divorce. She only asked for a villa and an apartment.

"A villa in Xinghui City, an apartment in Yueyingju, and five million in cash." Lin Xuan answered truthfully, then explained, "I gave her the five million back then."

Mrs. Lin snorted coldly: "She really knows how to be content."

For the Lin family, such real estate is just a drop in the ocean of wealth. If Ye Wanqing truly marries Lin Xuan, the property she can get when they divorce will be far more than what she asked for.

"Did Xu Xinyi reveal this?" asked Mrs. Lin.

"That's right." Lin Xuan replied.

Mrs. Lin slammed the table. "What a jerk Xu Xinyi! She thought that by exposing this, I would let her enter the Lin family? This is how the Xu family trains their daughter, time and again, to discredit the Lin family! From now on, the Lin and Xu families will have nothing to do with each other!"

After saying this, Mrs. Lin slowly stood up with the help of the housekeeper: "According to family rules, you will reflect on your mistakes in front of the ancestral tablets for one night."

"I am willing to be punished, mother." Lin Xuan did not protest or appeal, but just accepted the punishment silently.

Mrs. Lin ignored him and walked out of the ancestral hall with the housekeeper.

At the same time, in another corner of the Xu family.

"Pa!" Father Xu's palm landed heavily on Xu Xinyi's cheek, leaving a distinct red mark.

Xu's mother screamed in fear and hurried forward to stop him: "What are you doing? Why are you hitting Xinyi?"

Father Xu roared in rage, "Look at what she's done! She's going to push the relationship between the Lin and Xu families into an abyss of no return!"

Xu's mother naturally also knew about the turmoil on the Internet. She originally thought that this was just retribution for Ye Wanqing and did not think about her daughter at all.

Hearing Father Xu's accusation, she frowned and asked doubtfully, "Xinyi, was it really you who leaked the agreement between Lin Xuan and Ye Wanqing?"

Xu Xinyi was originally immersed in pride, but seeing her parents' strong reaction, she began to feel uneasy: "I, I just want everyone to see Ye Wanqing's true face!"

Father Xu was so angry that his face turned ashen, as if water could drip out of it: "You are forcing the Lin family and the Xu family to become sworn enemies!"

"How could that be? If Mrs. Lin knew about this, she would definitely not let Ye Wanqing go easily. As for Ye Wanqing..." There was a hint of uncertainty in Xu Xinyi's words.

"Do you think Mrs. Lin is as short-sighted as you? If this matter had been handled privately, Mrs. Lin would have naturally made trouble for Ye Wanqing. But you made it public. You are severely slapping the Lin family in the face.

Mrs. Lin won't bother Ye Wanqing now, she will settle the score with you, the one who embarrassed her! "Father Xu's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Xu Xinyi's heart hard.

Xu Xinyi finally woke up from her dream, her face turning pale as paper. "Then, what should I do now?"

She originally just wanted to threaten Ye Wanqing privately, but Ye Wanqing was not moved at all. In desperation, she chose to make this secret public.

"What else can we do? Tomorrow morning, you go to the Lin family and apologize!" After saying this, Xu's father turned around and went upstairs angrily.

Lin Xuan knelt in the ancestral hall all night. By the next morning, Mrs. Lin's anger had mostly subsided. She ordered the housekeeper to go to the ancestral hall to check on Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan knelt all night, his face pale. The housekeeper supported him with a distressed look: "Young Master, why are you doing this? The old lady may be harsh with words, but she still loves you in her heart. Why would you kneel for so long if you said a few more soft words?"

Lin Xuan straightened his body, his eyes firm: "Thank you, butler, this is the punishment I deserve."

Although he admitted his mistake, the stubbornness in his heart did not disappear.

The butler shook his head helplessly.

The night had not yet completely faded, and Lin Xuan had been kneeling here since eight o'clock last night, without a drop of water, until after five in the morning. Even a body of steel could not bear it.

After taking a shower, Lin Xuan began to sneeze and have a runny nose.

He called Zhao Yu, gave him a few brief instructions, had breakfast and went back to rest.

After Mrs. Lin woke up, she couldn't help but worry about Lin Xuan's health and asked the housekeeper, "Is he okay?"

The housekeeper had been with Mrs. Lin for many years and was well aware of her feelings. "When I went over, the young master's face was indeed not very good, and he looked a little weak. Madam, please don't take it too seriously. Although you are angry, making the young master kneel all night is indeed a bit harsh."

Although Mrs. Lin felt sorry for it, she still spoke in a reproachful tone: "He could even use an agreement to deceive me about something as important as marriage. I asked him to kneel all night, and he really didn't get up all night!"

"The young master is also worried that you might get sick from being angry." The housekeeper continued to comfort him.

"Are you afraid that I'll be angry, yet you still use this method to deceive me?" Mrs. Lin's tone was full of dissatisfaction.

The housekeeper put a scarf on her and said, "It's very windy outside today, madam, please keep warm."

Mrs. Lin did not refuse this concern: "Do you know where Ye Wanqing lives now?"

"Madam, are you planning to go look for Miss Ye?" asked the housekeeper.

"She cheated me for six whole years. Shouldn't I go to her and ask for an explanation?" Mrs. Lin said in a firm tone.

The housekeeper smiled and replied, "That's true. But then again, Miss Ye can't be blamed entirely on this matter. During those six years, Miss Ye was also sincere to the young master. She had feelings for the young master, but the young master himself didn't like her."

Mrs. Lin couldn't help but sigh after hearing what the housekeeper said: "Tell Lao Li to prepare the car. I want to go see Ye Wanqing."

There were some things that she really wanted to hear Ye Wanqing say in person.

"Okay, ma'am, I'll arrange it right away." The housekeeper responded and went to prepare the vehicle and driver.
