Chapter 183 Is There Still Trust in the World (2)_1
Shangguan You was not only the princess of the Shangguan Family but also of the Lin Family. This was because, for three generations, the Lin Family had only produced one daughter, Lin Mengjie. Lin Mengjie, in turn, had given birth to Shangguan You—another precious daughter. All other descendants were male. Consequently, daughters and granddaughters held a position of great importance in the Lin Family. Nowadays, even Lin Qingyu and Lin Wenhao, men who commanded respect and instilled fear within the mafia circles, would find themselves being thoroughly berated by the Lin family patriarch, often with a finger pointed right at their noses.
The men of the Lin family were known for doting on their female relatives; Lin Mengjie’s brothers, for example, had adored their sister to the point of obsession. If it weren’t for the events of sixteen years ago, Shangguan You wouldn’t bear the Shangguan surname but would be called Lin Wenyu instead.
Every time he thought about the events from sixteen years ago, the old patriarch of the Lin Family was so angry his eyes bulged. Sooner or later, he would get even and make Shangguan Zhi, that old tortoise, regret it.
"Dad, I’ll safely rescue Little You. Afterwards, she’ll formally change her name to Lin Wenyu and be directly registered under my name. I’d like to see who would dare bully her then," Lin Qingyu promised.
"Dad, what should we do about Ouyang Xuan?" Lin Wenjie’s brows furrowed. Ouyang Xuan was even more troublesome than the Shangguan Family.
"Hmph, it’s just Ouyang Xuan. What’s there to be afraid of? Starting from now, Little You officially has the Lin surname. We shall have no more relations with the Shangguan Family. Shangguan Zhi, that old tortoise, and Shangguan Hao, that brute—they’d better remember this well. If they dare to come to the Lin Family again, I’ll break their legs and feed them to the fishes!" Lin Wenbo roared with anger and then began coughing loudly.
"Grandpa, you’re not well; you shouldn’t get so angry. Our people and Ouyang Xuan’s people are already searching for her. We’ll have news soon," Lin Wenjie gently patted Lin Wenbo’s back, quietly soothing him.
"Grandpa, Little You gave this to me. She said it’s good for the body. Grandpa, you should try it," Lin Wenjie said, remembering the Jade Dew Pill Shangguan You had given him last time. He poured out a pill and fed it into the old patriarch’s mouth. He had taken one before; it was very effective, making his whole body feel warm.
"From Little You?"
"Yes, Little You gave it to me yesterday, saying it’s good for the body. Dad, Big Brother, you should try it too," Lin Wenjie poured out two more pills and handed them to the two men.
