Chapter 760 - 092 Bestowed Marriage_1
"Haha, Lin Siyu, after all this time, do you still think that I am the same Lin Yuan you used to bully and scold at will?" Lin Yuan pinched her somewhat chubby chin, scoffing inwardly. This girl might look pretty, but she’s nothing special—she even has a double chin now, and she’s caked in so much makeup. Ah, truly getting on in years.
Lin Siyu bit her lip. Only from this close did she clearly see Lin Yuan’s eyes, which held a brightness different from before, filled with wisdom and determination.
"You, let go of me. I, I did indeed want to tarnish the reputation of Fuman Building. But, you guys didn’t suffer any losses, did you? So why are you still bothering me? I, I am the Master Magistrate’s Little Concubine, you can’t hurt me—let go of me at once!"
"Heh!"
With a scoff, Lin Yuan thought, Lin Siyu, oh Lin Siyu, you really do have a pig’s brain. Fuman Building didn’t suffer any losses, not because of Lin Siyu’s magnanimity, but because of their own hard work. Yet this woman unabashedly declares she’s done no wrong—ridiculous!
The grip of Lin Yuan’s hand tightened, causing Lin Siyu’s face to turn pale with pain: "Lin Siyu, you better understand one thing, today’s peace at Fuman Building isn’t a gift from you, but the result of our own striving! And, you have managed to keep your pretty face today, not because of your own efforts, but because I, the lady, have kindly decided to spare you. Hmph!"
With a strong push, Lin Yuan finally let go of her chin, and with a look of distaste, she patted it off and curled her lip, saying, "Did you steal from the Li Mansion kitchens or something? Applying so much white powder to your face—it’s not even pretty, just heavy! Old woman!"
Lin Siyu, now freed, was deeply stung by the words ’old woman,’ standing there dumbfounded, touching her own face. She indeed felt the thick layer of powder, but could she be blamed? These past few days, she had been so troubled over Li Chengzhi’s marriage that her skin had deteriorated; without makeup, her face would look even worse.
Panpan, with her head lowered, forcefully stifled her laughter, her shoulders beginning to tremble. Old woman—that Boss Lin certainly knew how to hit where it hurts. It seems this woman will be so infuriated when she gets back that she won’t be able to get out of bed—great news, giving her a few more days of illness so that Panpan could enjoy a good break.
