Chapter 12: Is It Fate?

  Lin Yue's stiff mouth twitched, and she withdrew her hand without a trace.

  She still wasn't quite used to being so close to people.

  After work, I parted ways with Yang Liu and others, and walked alone to the nearby bus station. Actually, they all lived in roughly the same direction, so they shared a ride together, picking each other up and dropping each other off. Lin Yueer said she lived far away and wasn't on the same route.

  While waiting for the bus, she received a phone call.

  "Lin Yue'er! Now that you've married into a wealthy family, have your wings grown harder?! Have you forgotten who raised you?! Your cousin is just a little busy and you can't even help him out, are you still human?! If I had known it would be like this, when your mother abandoned you back then, I should have sent you straight to the orphanage!!"

  She frowned, "Uncle, I didn't say I wouldn't help Lin Sen..." She paused, "It's just that I couldn't come up with so much money all at once."

  To buy a suite of commodity housing in the best location in e-city, it would cost nearly two million. She had just worked for one year and didn't have much savings! Even when she got married, the dowry money given by her husband's family was only a small amount, not a lot.

  "Can't take it out? You think I'll believe you! You're now the young mistress of the Gu family, and Gu Wangchuan is the number one GL. Saying there's no money, cheating a fool like me! Is it that you just don't want to take it out?"

  Lin Yue'er sighed and explained with a hint of helplessness, "Uncle, taking care of the family is one thing, but I am me..."

  "Stop talking nonsense with me! Today you have to give a definite answer. About your younger male cousin buying a house, are you going to help or not?!"

  "Uncle, I have a bit of money that can be used as a down payment. If he takes out a loan, I can help him..."

  "So you're saying you won't help?! Fine, Lin Yue'er, I blame myself for being blind and bringing you home in the first place!" The phone was hung up abruptly after the outburst.

  Staring at her phone, Lin Yue'er leaned back in her chair, her lips pursed tightly, and didn't even notice when the bus arrived. She just sat there like that as bus after bus passed by...

  Gu Wangchuan drove out of the company and stopped at a red light. He casually turned his head, and his line of sight happened to lock onto the frail figure sitting at the bus stop. His eyebrows involuntarily furrowed.

  What is she doing sitting there? Waiting for someone?

  At this moment, a black sedan stopped, and when he saw the person who came out of it, Gu Wangchuan raised an eyebrow, with a hint of sarcasm.

  It turns out I was waiting for my beloved.

  Has it just started and you're already in such a hurry for a secret meeting?

  The red light turned green and he floored it, the high-performance sports car emitting a low rumble as it shot out with an arrogant yet somewhat angry attitude.

  Zheng Yuhao walked quickly to the bus stop, "Lin Yueer? Why are you still here?"

  He was called away by Huo Qiang at noon to accompany those European inspection teams, who knew that in the afternoon he was assigned a lot of work, some of which were not even within his scope of responsibility. But it is said that the general manager personally appointed him, and he had no choice but to take it on with a hard head, busy until now. Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the company, he saw Lin Yueer, was this fate?

  Lin Yue's expression was dazed for a moment, and when he saw clearly that it was him, he asked hastily, "What time is it now?"

  "It's already past nine."

  Lin Yue'er stroked her brow, "It's already so late."

  The last bus she took has already gone, well, it seems like I can only take a taxi back.

  "Where do you live? I'll send you back!" said Zheng Yuhao hastily.
