The scene of Sheng Yuan and Lin Mingmo confronting each other in the parking lot was seen by Sheng Zhenzhen and Lu Cheng who came rushing over.

Although the two were far away and their conversation could not be heard, judging from their pulling and tugging movements and Sheng Yuan's angry departure, there must be some connection between the two.

Sheng Zhenzhen had an expression as if she was enjoying herself.

"I think this woman is not simple." Sheng Zhenzhen said teasingly with a wink, "The Sheng family will probably be bustling from now on."

She was so engrossed in watching that she didn't notice that Lu Cheng beside her had a glaring look and a gloomy expression.

"Lin Mingmo, I haven't seen you for three years. You finally got what you wanted and climbed up the ladder of the Sheng family." Lu Cheng muttered to himself.

Lu Cheng lowered his head slightly, looking at the braided bracelet on his wrist that had faded after six years of wearing it, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Let's meet at the Sheng family from now on."

"Lu Cheng, what are you mumbling about?" Sheng Zhenzhen turned around and asked.

Lu Cheng smiled gently and held Sheng Zhenzhen in his arms, "Zhenzhen, keep this child and let's get married."

Lin Mingmo went back home.

When Yao Yuhui saw her, she was surprised and asked, "Why are you back? Isn't it time to go back to your parents' home yet?"

Lin Mingmo's eyes turned red, and she threw herself into Yao Yuhui's arms, calling out softly and aggrievedly, "Mom..."

Yao Yuhui felt a little sorry for her daughter's situation, but when she thought of the 400 million yuan investment, she comforted her daughter, saying, "The Sheng family has a lot of rules, just follow them. Isn't this how all these women got through it?"

Tears welled up in Lin Mingmo's eyes and her lips moved, but she was ultimately unable to tell the truth.

She looked around and realized that the place where she grew up was no longer her home.

Lin Mingmo let go of Yao Yuhui and was about to go upstairs when her cell phone suddenly rang.

It’s the Sheng family calling.

Before Lin Mingmo could answer, Yao Yuhui impatiently urged, "Go back quickly and don't upset them."

She just wanted Lin Mingmo to stay in the Sheng family peacefully and not get into any trouble.

"Okay." Lin Mingmo took a deep breath and smiled calmly.

She turned and walked out of the room and left.

Looking up at the blue sky, Lin Mingmo's mood became much more open.

She told herself that she was just playing a giant game of pretending to be a house, and the rewards were generous, so it didn't matter if she made some sacrifices.

The old lady of the Sheng family was discharged from the hospital.

After staying in the hospital for three months, she suddenly recovered and was able to be discharged. She thought it was due to a lucky charm, so she was eager to meet her granddaughter-in-law, Lin Mingmo.

When Lin Mingmo returned to the Sheng family, she found that it was much more lively here than the quietness of the previous two days.

It seemed that everyone in the Sheng family had returned. They gathered around the old lady with a rosy face and spoke kindly to her.

Everyone was sincerely happy for the old lady.

The atmosphere in this family does not seem to be as tense and full of intrigue as the outside world says.

"Mingmo, come here." Du Ling called to Lin Mingmo.

In an instant, everyone turned to look at Lin Mingmo.

Lin Mingmo walked forward with a smile on her face. After greeting everyone, she half-knelt down and called out sweetly to the old lady in the wheelchair, "Grandma, I'm Mingmo."

When Mrs. Sheng saw how well-behaved and pretty Lin Mingmo was, she smiled happily and held Lin Mingmo's hand tightly, liking her very much.

"Mingmo, you are grandma's lucky star!" said the old lady. "Grandma's health has improved since you came!"

Lin Mingmo's eyes curved, "Grandma, it's my blessing to marry into the Sheng family! I will take good care of you in the future. You will definitely be healthy and live as long as the Southern Mountains!"

"What a sweet little mouth!" The old lady smiled even more happily, "As long as you and Sheng Yang are well and give me a big fat great-grandson, I will be satisfied!"

"Of course, Sheng Yang and I will try our best." Lin Mingmo continued to speak calmly according to the old lady's words.

Although Lin Mingmo's words seemed a bit flattering to others, they made the old lady happy and there was nothing wrong with them.

Almost everyone looked at this woman, who was basically a stranger, with either curiosity or caution.

She's quite pretty, and to be chosen, she must have a clean family background, and she's also very good at pleasing the elderly...

Sheng Yuan stood on the outskirts of the crowd, tall and straight, like a green pine.

In family activities like this, Sheng Yuan is always the inconspicuous one.

He originally didn't want to come back.

But he still appeared here inexplicably.

His gaze fell on Lin Mingmo, his eyes clear and with a hint of disdain.

He even sympathized with Lin Mingmo's helplessness, but he didn't expect that she enjoyed it so much, and was so good at handling things.

She doesn't care who the man is who she marries, she only cares whether that man is the heir to Shengshi Group.

Lin Mingmo naturally also felt that sharp gaze, which seemed to see through her.

She had a smile on her face, but her teeth were almost broken.

Although it was unlikely, Lin Mingmo was still afraid that Sheng Yuan would suddenly go crazy and say something he shouldn't.

"By the way, where is Ayang?" Old Mrs. Sheng looked around but couldn't find Sheng Yang.

Du Ling immediately laughed and said, "Ayang has work to do and hasn't come back yet. He must be very happy to know that you've been discharged from the hospital."

Everyone kept it a secret and concealed the fact that Sheng Yang had run away from home from the old lady.

The old lady asked again, "Zhenzhen is not here either?"

The older generation likes to have the whole family get together.

Everyone just made up an excuse and got away with it.

Sheng Yang and Sheng Zhenzhen, the two cousins, and Sheng Yuan, are the most troublesome people in the Sheng family.

Fortunately, the old lady did not pursue the matter further and quickly changed the subject.

Lin Mingmo lowered her eyebrows and didn't say much.

The old lady didn't stay outside for long before the nurse pushed her back to her room to rest. Lin Mingmo's tense nerves relaxed instantly.

She thought that she had passed this test of the old lady.

"Good performance." The familiar lazy voice suddenly sounded behind her. Lin Mingmo was startled and goose bumps quickly appeared on her skin.

Sheng Yuan looked at Lin Mingmo steadily, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

With so many people present, Lin Mingmo couldn't get angry.

She turned around and said to Sheng Yuan with a forced smile, "This is my basic courtesy as a junior. How can you call it acting?"

Sheng Yuan took a step closer and said in a voice that only Lin Mingmo could hear, "Your little tricks may deceive people for a while, but the Sheng family are not fools. Do you think you can keep acting like this?"

Lin Mingmo's smile gradually faded, and a chill slowly invaded her.

"Don't worry about it!" Lin Mingmo gritted her teeth and retorted.

Sheng Yuan raised his eyebrows, said nothing more, and strode away.

Before Lin Mingmo could breathe a sigh of relief, her shoulder was patted again.

She turned around in surprise and saw a sweet-looking girl looking at her with a smile.

"Sorry..." Lin Mingmo felt that the girl looked familiar and searched her mind for memories.

"I'm Du Yuruo. My parents are managers at Shengshi Group, and our two families have a good relationship."

Lin Mingmo remembered that she was the new sweet actress who had attracted a lot of attention in the entertainment industry recently.

Unexpectedly, it is related to the Sheng family.

"Are you the new daughter-in-law of the Sheng family? You are so beautiful." Du Yuruo looked at Lin Mingmo with starry eyes for a long time, and then hugged Lin Mingmo's arm affectionately, as if they were old friends.

Lin Mingmo is cold and aloof, and has few close friends. Over the years, the only person who can hug her arms is her younger sister Lin Xingxi.

At the moment, she felt a little uncomfortable, but was too embarrassed to push Du Yuruo away.

"Thank you...thank you..." Lin Mingmo replied awkwardly.

"Cousin, I want to tell you something in private." Du Yuruo suddenly leaned close to Lin Mingmo's ear and whispered.

Lin Mingmo was confused and before she could react, Du Yuruo pulled her into an empty room.

Without the chatter of the Sheng family, the place suddenly became much quieter.

"Yuzhen, what's wrong?" Lin Mingmo asked with a smile, "Why are you being so mysterious?"

At this time, Lin Mingmo still maintained a friendly attitude towards Du Yuruo.

Du Yuruo let go of Lin Mingmo, and her smiling face turned gloomy.

Lin Mingmo felt inexplicably panicked.

"Lin Mingmo, right?" Du Yuruo said in a bad tone.

She has big eyes, and when she doesn't smile, she looks a little sinister.

Lin Mingmo suddenly laughed.

She stared at the sweet and lovely yet fierce face, very calmly.

"I thought I had introduced myself."

"I don't care who you are! I'm telling you, Ayang won't be with you!"

"Then what?" Lin Mingmo said lightly.

Du Yuruo was stunned for a moment, staring at Lin Mingmo and asking, "How can you be so shameless! You don't love A Yang at all, why are you taking up this position?"

Lin Mingmo finally understood. She hadn't even met Sheng Yang, but had met her love rival first.

"Do you like Sheng Yang?" Lin Mingmo asked directly.

Du Yuruo's face turned red and white, and she clenched her hands awkwardly, "I... I... we can be together."

Lin Mingmo nodded thoughtfully and remained silent for a long time.

Du Yuruo was also somewhat confused by Lin Mingmo's reaction, but she still warned him seriously: "Lin Mingmo, give up, you will never win A Yang's heart!"

Lin Mingmo crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking extremely relaxed.

She tilted her head, and her long hair fell naturally, which made her red lips and fair skin look very charming.

"Du Yuruo, even though you and Sheng Yang have been childhood sweethearts, you still can't get him to marry you. That means he doesn't like you either." Lin Mingmo pointed out the key point directly.

Du Yuruo's defenses were broken in an instant, and tears burst out.

"You...you are talking nonsense!" Du Yuruo was so angry that she waved her hand towards Lin Mingmo's delicate face.

Ah Yang can only be hers! No one else can take him away!

Lin Mingmo grabbed Du Yuruo's wrist, and there was a hint of cruelty in her cold eyes.

She is not a pushover!

"Du Yuruo, even if you're unwilling, I'm already Sheng Yang's wife, recognized by the Sheng family." Her cold words rang out, like ice. "Are you telling me these things to make me give up?"

"I'm telling you, it's impossible."

Du Yuruo didn't expect that the gentle and cold beauty could be so tough. She was not mentally prepared and was shocked.

"But...but you don't love him...you won't be happy!" Du Yuruo said tremblingly.

Lin Mingmo laughed contemptuously.

"What are you laughing at?" Du Yuruo asked angrily.

Lin Mingmo stared at Du Yuruo's dark, watery pupils, her tone indifferent, "I laugh at your naiveté and your stupidity. Instead of talking to me about these nonsense, why not think more about how to gain Sheng Yang's favor!"
