LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 7
Chapter 007:
Aunt Chen has a high IQ.
She had left long before Qi Lin commented on how fragrant Qi Xueyao was.
Qi Xueyao sat down to eat, and Qi Lin followed suit, sitting down beside her.
Seeing Qi Lin sit down beside her, Qi Xueyao felt disgusted and immediately turned away.
But a woman’s sixth sense was surprisingly sensitive. Although she couldn’t see Qi Lin, she could feel him staring at her.
“What are you up to, Qi Lin?” Qi Xueyao couldn’t help but ask. She put down her chopsticks and turned around.
“I’m not up to anything. I just think Sister Xueyao looks pretty.”
“Sister Xueyao, why don’t you be my girlfriend?”
Qi Lin still had that playful look on his face, and his words made Qi Xueyao’s chest tighten.
“Qi Lin, do you know what you’re saying? Although we’re from the same village, I’ve always treated you like a younger brother! I could never be your girlfriend in this lifetime.”
Qi Xueyao’s face blushed with anger and embarrassment.
Did Qi Lin really want Qi Xueyao to be his girlfriend?
Certainly not.
He just wanted to see Qi Xueyao frustrated and helpless, unable to do anything about it.
Would Qi Xueyao be willing to be Qi Lin’s girlfriend?
The answer was also no.
Because Qi Lin knew that Qi Xueyao had a college classmate with whom she had a very close relationship.
And they had already agreed that if either of them succeeded in starting a business, Qi Xueyao would agree to be his girlfriend.
“Using moral kidnapping won’t work, Sister Xueyao.”
“We’ve just grown up in the same village, and in my eyes, you’re just a beautiful woman. Why can’t I say these things?”
“And besides, what do you mean by treating me like a younger brother? Are you planning to divide my family’s property or something?”
Qi Lin had become quite bold now.
In the past, he might have been rendered silent and ashamed by Qi Xueyao’s words.
But this time, Qi Lin’s face was thicker than a city wall, something Qi Xueyao couldn’t handle.
Normally, as a villain, it would be inappropriate to immediately conflict with the target from the very beginning.
But remember, Qi Lin was reborn.
Just a few days ago, Qi Xueyao came to his villa to borrow money, hoping to help her old man through a difficult time.
Not to mention the great favor Qi Xueyao’s family owed him.
When Qi Xueyao stayed at his house for three years, the Qi family didn’t charge her a penny.
Qi Lin and his family provided her with everything she needed, from food and drink to snacks and a spacious room.
But, when Qi Lin went to her house, how did Qi Xueyao treat him?
At that time, Qi Xueyao had succeeded in her business and was a well-known billionaire.
She was already married to her college classmate.
When Qi Lin entered, as usual, he called her sister-in-law and brother-in-law.
But Qi Xueyao’s husband glanced at Qi Lin, didn’t even greet him, and went straight upstairs.
Before leaving, he gave Qi Xueyao a look, reminding her not to agree if Qi Lin asked for help.
“Sister Xueyao, remember when you first started working and stayed at my villa for three years? Now my family is in some trouble. Can you…”
Qi Xueyao didn’t even ask Qi Lin to sit down, let alone pour tea or serve fruits. But being in her presence, Qi Lin had to bow his head and could only stand there, desperately begging Qi Xueyao.
“I know everything you said. Let’s do this. I’ll have my staff rent you a 10-square-meter room. I’ll pay rent for three years upfront. If your family has nowhere to stay, you can move in now. Consider it as repaying me for your family’s kindness.”
Qi Xueyao glanced at Qi Lin indifferently and said coldly.
Her words were cold and heartless, and Qi Lin felt cold all over at that time.
What was the difference between squeezing into a 10-square-meter room with a family of three and living in a dog house?
Initially, Qi Xueyao lived in his villa with a 30-square-meter room, no different from a wealthy young lady in terms of living standards.
Was this how she repaid his family’s kindness?
At this moment, Qi Lin finally remembered what his old man had said to him. “Qi Lin, I allowed that girl to move into our villa because of you. Otherwise, with her father’s status, I wouldn’t have agreed. If you really have feelings for that girl, you should make a move on her sooner.” This was the conversation between Qi Lin’s old man and him when Qi Xueyao first moved in.
“Qi Lin, I urgently need some money now. Can you go ask your dad to lend me some?” One day, Qi Xueyao found Qi Lin and asked him to help her ask his old man for some money.
Qi Lin agreed without much thought. He told his old man about it. His old man looked deeply at the foolish son and then said solemnly, “That girl is naturally good at using her connections to get things done. I’ve long seen right through her. The person she likes isn’t you at all. Even if you lend her money, it’s destined to be in vain.”
“When people get something, they’re bound to lose something. You choose to be a comfortable and indulgent rich second-generation, but that girl despises such people the most. Do you understand what I mean?”
Of course, Qi Lin understood. His old man’s words left him disheartened. However, at that time, Qi Lin still had a conscience and didn’t hold any grudges against Qi Xueyao. But because his old man didn’t lend her the money, Qi Xueyao harbored resentment toward Qi Lin’s family. However, she didn’t show it on the surface. That was how it turned out, rewarding kindness with ingratitude, nurturing enmity over trivial matters.
Despite eating and living at Qi Lin’s villa, his old man had also helped Qi Xueyao a lot.
But in the end, because of the money issue, she held a grudge against Qi Lin’s family.
Finally, when Qi Lin’s family went bankrupt, she took the opportunity to humiliate Qi Lin.
Could Qi Lin still talk to her normally after experiencing Qi Xueyao’s humiliation?
His mind is now full of thoughts about destroying Qi Xueyao’s business and happiness.
As for morality, let it go to hell.
