Chapter 42
Lin still didn’t know what to do to explain, her hands kept twisting together, and she stood there in a bit of a fidgety state.
Huo Jinlin doesn’t want to force her, and he can’t bear to see her being so evasive.
“That’s just it, since you don’t want to say it, forget it.”
As the words fall out of his mouth, he strides up the stairs, leaving Lin still standing in place, looking at his back as he resolutely walks up the stairs, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
Huo Jinlin lies alone on the bed, thinking that the reason Lin still avoids him is because she’s new to the country and isn’t used to it yet.
So he thought, give it some time, let her slowly adapt.
Who would have thought that Song Yu Wan would notice the abnormality and wait for Huo Jin Lin to go to work before she mysteriously comes to ask Lin still.
“Still, did you guys have a fight? This period of time how to feel you and Jinlin strange, is that boy bullied you?”
Originally, Lin still had the intention to make things clear with Huo Jinlin and stop avoiding him, thus she shook her head.
“No, mom, we’ve just been too busy lately and are a bit tired.”
Despite moving to the Huo family, Lin still insists on helping out at the fried chicken restaurant every day, so running back and forth is indeed quite tiring.
Song Yu evening didn’t say much, she only gently patted Lin still’s shoulder and said, “You still need to pay more attention to resting, don’t get too tired, and tell mom if you need anything.”
“Thanks mom, I’m fine, I’ll go see if the two kids are sleeping.”
Lin still feels warm in her heart, after saying that, she turns around and goes upstairs.
Huo Jinlin was planning to get along with Lin still in a different way when the company’s cooperation with a foreign country went wrong, and he had to go personally to deal with it, and would probably be delayed for a while before he could return.
When the old lady heard about this, her face immediately pulled a long face: “You kid, all you know is work all day long, leaving your new daughter-in-law alone at home, is this appropriate?”
Lin still lowers her head in embarrassment and doesn’t say anything, in her heart, she hopes that Huo Jinlin will go, so that the two of them can calm down for a while and get used to each other.
Huo Jinlin is usually formidable in the company, but at this moment, he is scolded but doesn’t say a word, Song Yu Evening comes out in time to rescue him.
“Mom, a little goodbye is better than a new marriage, a man should still focus on his career, how can he indulge in childish love?”
“Hmph,” the old lady gave a cold snort of displeasure, “Let you go, now that you’ve hardened your wings, I can’t control you.”
After the words were said, she knocked her cane heavily on the ground and went upstairs.
No one in the room said anything, Song Yu evening smiled awkwardly, “Don’t be angry, grandma is just old, don’t you guys care.”
She turns her head to look at Huo Jinlin and says, “Alright, do what you need to do, I’m on grandma’s side, don’t worry, work hard.”
The old lady is actually getting old and wants her children and grandchildren to be with her, so money is no longer important to her.
So as soon as she heard that Huo Jinlin was going out, she got upset, and that’s why she made a little fuss and lost her temper here.
Lin still breathes a sigh of relief, her heart is torn, and she eventually says faintly, “Going for a long time? I’ll go pack your bags later.”
Huo Jinlin’s dark, ink-like eyes look at her with ulterior motives, the words come to his lips but he swallows them down, lightly opening his lips and saying, “Take care of yourself.”
“Uh-huh,” Lin still nodded, “You work at ease!”
More words she did not say, also do not know how to say, just this time Lin Yi Yi to find her, Lin still like waiting for help, hurriedly left the scene.
When Song Yu evening saw how well-behaved and understanding Lin still was, she couldn’t help but cast a look of appreciation in her eyes.
“Son, your vision is good, still is indeed a good girl, treat people well.”
Through this period of time, Song Yu Evening had truly taken the Lin Still sisters as her own family, she also knew that the young couple’s recent atmosphere was not right, but she did not say much.
Nowadays, from her perspective, it’s no longer appropriate for her to meddle in the young people’s affairs, just help them deal with it on their own.
Huo Jinlin looked up at the stairway, Lin still’s figure disappeared before he said, “Mom, it’s going to be hard on you for this period of time, still they’ll be in your hands.”
Although they aren’t a large family with many laws, there are many things that Lin still hasn’t come into contact with, especially since she’s just arrived again, Huo Jinlin is afraid that she’ll be unaccustomed to it for a while.
Song Yu evening understands his intentions and nods, “Just rest assured, this matter is wrapped up in me.”
The next morning, Huo Jinlin takes the earliest flight to leave, Lin still has always been a light sleeper, when she hears the door open and close in the next room, she knows it’s Huo Jinlin leaving, but in the end, she still doesn’t get up.
Nowadays, the two are already awkward with each other, if they meet and don’t know what to say, they might as well not see each other.
With these thoughts in her mind, she unknowingly fell asleep again in a daze, and when she woke up again, it was already dawn.
She went downstairs only to find that everyone had already eaten breakfast, Song Yu Wan was accompanying her two children to read in the morning, and the old lady had gone out to exercise.
Song Yu Wan looked up to see her and smiled gently, her eyes curving into small crescent moons.
“Awake? There’s breakfast left on the table for you, come eat.”
Lin still scratched her head awkwardly, on weekdays she paid extra attention, but today she still overslept.
Song Yu Wan seemed to see her embarrassment and comforted her, “It’s fine, young people have a hard time on weekdays, if you’re fine, just sleep a little more, we don’t have so many manners in our house.”
This time Lin still even more embarrassed, blushing like an apple, “Thank you mom.”
In fact, this period of time together, Lin still and the old lady they are very harmonious, Song Yu evening is also almost Lin still as their own daughter to treat, is Lin still can not get over that hurdle, has always felt outside.
“Right, still, tonight the Lin family has a birthday dinner, you accompany me to go together, and meet with them?”
Huo Group’s young granny, one day is going to show her face in front of everyone, Song Yu evening is thinking that she can bring her to get familiar with it.
Lin still did not expect to hear, instantly scalp numb, nervous, “or forget it, mom, I still have something in the store today, later to go over to see, next time there is an opportunity I will go with you.”
Such an opportunity so many people begged for, so Song Yu evening did not think too much about it, just thought she really had something to do, and also felt a little bit sorry for her.
“That’s a bit of a pity, we can only go next time we have the chance.”
“It’s okay, mom, there’s still a chance, it’ll be the same next time.”
“Well,” Song Yu Wan still smiled and didn’t get angry, instead she even cared for her, “Don’t be too tired, let the driver send you there!”
In fact, she also knows that Song Yu Wan is doing this for her own good, it’s just that right now, she still can never fit into Huo Jin Lin’s circle, there are so many things that she’s never seen or heard of, so she doesn’t really want to go and participate in this kind of occasion.
