After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 568

"President Lin..."

"elder brother......"

"Brother Lin, I can't take it anymore, I...I love you!"

Xu Miaomiao's mind flashed to Lin Ling's handsome face, and she blurted it out.

Lin Ling frowned slightly, a hint of embarrassment flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

He coughed lightly: "Stop fooling around, I'm at your hometown, visiting your parents on your and your boyfriend's behalf."

"what?"

Xu Miaomiao's voice suddenly rose, as if she had been startled.

Her eyes widened, her fingers unconsciously tightened around her phone, and her mind was a complete mess.

Xu Miaomiao was just fantasizing about being intimate with Lin Ling, but now she learned that he had gone to her hometown. This sudden turn of events caught her off guard.

She swallowed hard, her voice tinged with panic.

"President Lin, what are you doing in my hometown? What are you doing there?"

On the other end of the phone, Mr. and Mrs. Xu stared intently at Lin Ling, their ears perked up, afraid of missing a single word.

Lin Ling's arrival, along with the mountain of gifts, has completely overturned their worldview.

They had lived most of their lives and had never seen anything like it.

Lin Ling turned her head slightly to avoid the probing gazes of Xu's parents.

He smiled and said, "Go see your uncle and aunt, and chat with them about your situation."

Xu Miaomiao's heart started beating even faster.

She knew her parents' character well: greedy and snobbish.

If they find out about my relationship with Lin Ling and Cheng Fa, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Xu Miaomiao suppressed her panic and tried her best to make her voice sound normal.

"I...I'm doing fine at school, you don't need to worry."

"My parents are in good health...you don't need to make a special trip."

"It's so troublesome for you!"

The fawning voice of Xu's mother came through the microphone, and although there was some distance between them, Xu Miaomiao could still hear it clearly.

"Miaomiao, Mr. Lin is so good to you! Why didn't you say so sooner?"

"With friends like this, we old folks can finally rest easy! If your boyfriend is as successful as him, then we'll be living the good life!"

"You'd better behave yourself, be sensible and obedient, and don't cause trouble for others."

Xu Miaomiao's face flushed red and then turned pale, so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into the ground.

Xu's mother's voice was full of pride: "Look at what Mr. Lin gave us! This TV is so big, your father and I have never seen anything like it in our lives!"

"And that four-door refrigerator, only city dwellers can afford it!"

"Miaomiao, you really need to thank Mr. Lin properly. He's been so good to you, you should be sensible!"

Mr. Xu chimed in, "Yes, Miaomiao, you must cherish her!"

"A benefactor like Mr. Lin is someone not everyone can meet! And your boyfriend, he looks like he'll be successful!"

Xu Miaomiao smiled awkwardly, glancing at her phone screen out of the corner of her eye, worried that Lin Ling might react strangely upon hearing these words.

Xu Miaomiao's lips twitched, and she said dryly, "Um... I understand... Thank you, President Lin, and thank you... to my boyfriend..."

When she said the word "boyfriend," Xu Miaomiao's voice was almost inaudible, as if she had choked on something.

Lin Ling saw all of this, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

He didn't expose Xu Miaomiao, but went along with her words and said, "Okay, study hard, and let me know if you need anything. I'll hang up now."

"well......"

Xu Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Miaomiao felt like she had walked around a market naked.

She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, trying to calm her nervousness.

On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Lin Ling's smile gradually faded.

He turned to Xu's parents and said, "Uncle and Aunt, Miaomiao is very well-behaved at school, so you can rest assured."

"With me taking care of her, there won't be any problems."

Xu's mother nodded and bowed hurriedly, "Don't worry, don't worry, our Miaomiao is the most obedient!"

Mr. Xu also pushed his wheelchair over, smiling obsequiously.

"Yes, yes, Miao Miao has been sensible since she was little and has never caused us any worry."

Lin Ling nodded, stood up, straightened his suit, and prepared to leave.

"Uncle and Aunt, it's getting late, I'll head back now."

Lin Ling said, "Take your time using these things. If you need anything installed, someone will come over tomorrow."
