Chapter 179
Lin Banxia sat down on the sofa next to her, her face cold as she said, "My family background isn’t good enough, right? I’m not pretty enough, didn’t catch her fancy, and she can’t stand me. She wants to drive me out of the Huo Family, wishes that I’d break up with Huo Yanting immediately. Are those reasons enough?"
A string of sharp words left Lin Kunhuai speechless.
The words "bad family background" were practically a slap to his face. But this face? He deserved the slap.
If the Lin Family could be as wealthy as the Ji Family, would they still need to sell their daughter for glory?
Lin Kunhuai immediately softened his attitude. His tone became much gentler as he counseled her, "Banxia, who said you’re not pretty? In your dad’s eyes, you’re the most beautiful. You absolutely must keep hold of Mr. Huo’s heart—you can’t break up. If you break up, our Lin Family is finished. Besides, haven’t you always wanted to keep the pear garden? Let me remind you, aside from Mr. Huo, there’s no one else who can help you."
Hearing that Mrs. Huo was so repulsed by his daughter, Lin Kunhuai was deeply annoyed.
Still, he wouldn’t allow his daughter to break up with Huo Yanting. The cost was too high.
"Dad, let’s face it. To you, I’m just your cash cow, aren’t I? Look at the state I’m in now, beaten black and blue, and you’re still telling me this? Honestly, I should just break up with him already—spare myself all the disdain." Lin Banxia said these words just to scare her father, to remind him of her importance.
