Bai Rui looked at Shirō Makino with an ashen face, his voice trembling with anger. "Shirō Makino, do you know who you're talking to?"
Shirō Makino's eyes were especially bright as he looked at Bai Rui quietly. "I'll just ask you one thing. Tell me the truth. When have you ever treated me as your family?"
"I …"
"Think carefully before you speak." Shirō Makino reminded him calmly.
Bai Rui didn't continue to be angry at being interrupted this time. Instead, he looked at Shirō Makino with a somewhat speechless expression.
"At least you still have some conscience in your bones." Bai Muye chuckled softly. There was a tinge of bitterness, bitterness, and self-mockery in his smile.
Lin Zijin, who was beside him, looked at Shirō Makino with great heartache. The two of them had been together for so long, but she had never seen such a complicated smile on her brother's face.
Because she empathized with Shirō Makino, she almost couldn't hold back her tears when she saw Shirō Makino's smile.
She couldn't help but gently hold Shirō Makino's hand.
"Actually, deep down in your heart, you've never treated me as your family, right? If it wasn't for my great empress's sudden return to the family and publicly supporting me, I'm afraid that there would still be a large portion of you who never had a family member in your hearts. There are even some who are constantly thinking of ways to kill me … "
Bai Rui said with some difficulty, "The family indeed doesn't care enough about you. But if you say that someone wants to kill you, this … this is too much."
"Mr. Bai, is there really no such thing? Do you need me to tell you how many open and covert attacks my old man Bai Sheng has blocked for me all these years? You, as the family head, are still not thick-skinned enough! " Shirō Makino looked at Bai Rui and chuckled. "Forget it. Since we walk different paths, we can't make plans together. Since you don't treat me as family, don't make such pointless attempts. Mr. Bai, thank you for your call today, but I refuse. "
With that, Shirō Makino hung up without giving Bai Rui, the current head of the Bai family, a chance to speak.
Lin Zijin leaned lightly on Shirō Makino's shoulder and said, "Brother, if we make our relationship so stiff, won't Ancestor Chu Yue … have any thoughts?"
"Her? Do you think she would care about something like that? "Shirō Makino retorted.
Lin Zijin thought about it and couldn't help but laugh. "Probably not."
"No." Shirō Makino shook his head. "She definitely wouldn't!"
Bai Rui, whose communicator had been disconnected, was still sitting in that luxurious wooden chair, unable to speak for a long time.
After a long time, he slowly took a cigar from the side, picked up the cigar cutter, and carefully cut off the end of the cigar. Then, he lit the cigar bit by bit and took a puff.
Amidst the lingering smoke, his pair of eyes, through the faint smoke, seemed to reveal a bit of regret.
After a while, he pressed a button on the communicator and said, "Shirō Makino won't be attending today's family gathering. He still has a deep grudge against the family. For the time being, ask everyone to restrain their children. If I hear that anyone is gossiping about him in public, I won't let them off. "
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the communicator. Then, someone said faintly, "Are you so sure that he can grow up?"
"The empress's judgment can't be wrong," Bai Rui said.
There was silence on the other end. After a while, someone said, "Alright, I will ask someone to restrain him. But Lord Family Head, I'm not optimistic about what we've done all these years. "
"After all, his surname is Bai, and the blood of the Bai family flows in his veins!" Bai Rui said in a low voice and hung up.
Lin Zijin and Shirō Makino walked around the manor hand in hand.
Although she had scolded the Bai family head and rejected the invitation, Lin Zijin knew that her brother didn't feel good about it.
Her brother was not a heartless person.
She could only say that the Bai family behind her brother had hurt her brother deeply.
To be precise, some of the people in power in the Bai family … No, most of them had been too heartless to her brother's family.
She could empathize with them.
Because her story was similar to her brother's.
In some aspects, she was not as good as her brother.
At least her brother had the protection of an ancestor, but she … didn't.
Neither of them spoke, because there was no need to continue thinking about it. If what happened just now had happened to her, she would have made the same choice.
Suddenly, Lin Zijin's communicator rang.
Lin Zijin glanced at Shirō Makino and couldn't help but laugh.
"Brother, it seems like we're really famous now!"
Yes, they were really famous now!
Regardless of whether it was the Bai Family or the Lin Family, these two lofty behemoths, they finally saw their young but upright figures.
Lin Zijin accepted the call, and a projection of a woman appeared in front of her. She looked like Lin Caiwei.
Although it was the first time they met and she didn't know who this woman was, Lin Zijin instinctively felt close to her.
"Hi, little Jin, how are you!"
The woman in the projection smiled and waved at Lin Zijin, then saw Shirō Makino holding Lin Zijin's hand, and her eyes lit up.
"Wow, you're Xiao Bai, right? Can I call you that? "
The woman's voice was very pleasant, and her attitude was very good. Even if people wanted to get angry, it was difficult to do so. After all, no one would hit a smiling face.
People like Bai Rui, who put on airs the moment they met, were infuriating.
Lin Zijin looked at the woman and asked, "You are?"
"Looking at my face, you should be able to guess it, right? I'm Lin Caixia, Lin Caiwei's older sister. " The woman was still smiling, and looked at Lin Zijin, "If you don't mind me, you can call me Sister Xia!"
Sister … Xia?
Are all of you so amusing?
According to seniority, you're my grandaunt, okay?
You're already so old, you just look a little younger, can you stop fooling around?
Lin Zijin looked at the projection speechlessly, and suddenly asked with a serious face, "You contacted me because you want me to attend that family banquet?"
"Aiya, little Jin is so smart! It's such a pity that I couldn't watch you grow up all these years, "Lin Caixia said with a smile, looking at Lin Zijin," Then, our little princess, do you have time? "
Lin Zijin smiled, and declined, "Thank you for your kindness, but I think, I'd better not attend."
Lin Caixia seemed to have expected this, and said, "Actually, it's nothing, because those people that you hate basically won't appear."
Lin Zijin thought for a moment, "Really? Like Lin Qi and Lin Yue? "
"Eh? You've seen them before? "Lin Caixia was a little surprised, and looked at Lin Zijin with a little surprise.
"They all want to kill my brother, and they even want to sell me," Lin Zijin smiled, "They're bad."
"They deserve to die! Don't worry, little girl, these kinds of people will definitely not appear at the family banquet today! " Lin Caixia promised Lin Zijin with a serious face, "If anyone bullies you, Sister Xia will beat them up for you!"
Lin Zijin smiled. "Is that so? Then all these years, where has Sister Xia been all these years? "
Shirō Makino, who was holding Lin Zijin's hand, could feel the uneasiness in her heart. This woman called Lin Caixia really had her ways, and her words and actions were very amiable, making it hard for people to dislike her.
But this did not mean that she could change Lin Zijin's opinion of the Lin family.
Nor could she erase the Lin family's coldness towards Lin Zijin all these years because of her amiability.
The problem still existed there, it could only be covered up, but it would never disappear.
In the video, Lin Caixia smiled bitterly and said, "That's a good question. Yes, where was I when you suffered all those years? Where was I when Caiwei was bullied all those years? "
Lin Zijin looked at Lin Caixia quietly with a pair of pure eyes.
Lin Caixia sighed softly, "At that time, I was in the Milky Way."
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Lin Zijin looked at Lin Caixia in surprise, and Shirō Makino also looked up in shock.
This woman … this woman who claimed to be Lin Caiwei's sister, had actually returned from the Milky Way?
"So, if you want to know more about the situation in the Milky Way, if you want to know more about your parents, then … come over." Lin Caixia sighed, "Little girl, and Xiao Bai, listen to Sister Xia, when the family is big, there will inevitably be scum. Sometimes, even if there are different opinions, there is no need to really make the relationship so stiff. There are some things that I only heard after I came back. People like Lin Qi and Lin Yue deserve to die. It's fine if they die, but if they don't die, I will completely cripple them when I see them, and let them live the rest of their lives in despair and regret. "
Lin Zijin glanced at Shirō Makino, and the look in her eyes was very easy to understand.
Shirō Makino understood at a glance.
Lin Qi and Lin Yue, in fact, in their hearts, they did not take them seriously.
What really moved them was the Milky Way!
Lin Zijin saw the answer in Shirō Makino's eyes, and then looked at Lin Caixia in the video, "Sister Xia, are you sure that at today's Lin family gathering, there will not be people or things that I dislike?"
"Absolutely not! Your Sister Xia guarantees you with my face! If there really is, you don't need to do anything, I will kill them with one slap! "Lin Caixia said.
"Do you also want me to return to the family?" Lin Zijin asked again.
"When have you ever separated from the family?" Lin Caixia smiled and asked in return, "We are all of the Lin family's blood, and we are all children of the Lin family. How can we talk about separating from the family? Be it you or your parents, any child of the Lin family is the same. As long as they do not commit heinous crimes and are expelled from the family, they are all children of the family!"
After a pause, Lin Caixia continued, "As for who is in power in this family, and whether some people will do something irrational, this kind of problem is inevitable when the family is big. So, I hope that you will not be troubled by these unhappy things. Also … come back, some of the people who bullied Caiwei and you in the past, I may not be able to defeat them alone, but with you and Xiao Bai helping me, I think it will be enough! "
Looking at Lin Caixia's serious face, Lin Zijin burst into laughter.
"Okay, then I will go with you tonight!"
"That's right, bring the new son-in-law of the Lin family, and let them see what it means to be the most handsome man in the world!" Lin Caixia said as she winked at Shirō Makino, then waved her hand and hung up.
Shirō Makino was a little emotional. Look at the standard of her words, and then think about the Bai family head Bai Rui …
If you want to express goodwill, don't put on airs!
Who are you trying to show off by putting on airs?
"Come, brother, let's go shopping. I want to dress you up properly! I want to blind their eyes! "Lin Zijin also seemed to be in a good mood.
This did not mean that she had forgiven the family, but that she had accepted Sister Xia, who looked very much like Lin Caiwei.
One had to admit that this woman's EQ was really high.
In just a few words, he had made everything clear.
Furthermore, she did not force them to do anything because they were children of the Lin family.
After that, the two of them left, wearing hats and masks, and entered the largest shopping mall in the Imperial City.
Using the fastest speed, they chose suitable clothes for both of them, and ran out of there as if they were escaping.
It was not that the two of them were very recognizable, but that this kind of top-notch Golden Boy and Jade Girl CP, even if they wore hats, masks, and sunglasses, and dressed themselves to the teeth, they still attracted so much attention.
In just a short period of time, the two of them had been hit on dozens of times.
If they took off their glasses, masks, and hats, there would only be more.
"Brother is too handsome, it's really a trouble!"
"This girl is too beautiful, it's also a burden!"
The two of them sitting in the car, flattered each other without restraint, and then burst into laughter.
In the evening, the place where the Lin and Bai families held their family gathering was bustling with noise and excitement.
This area was considered the most top-notch and private place in the Imperial City, and ordinary people could not easily enter this place.
Even in the sky above this area, there was an identification zone that prohibited flying. If one accidentally trespassed, they would immediately receive a warning and then be expelled.
If one dared to forcefully trespass, then all kinds of anti-aircraft cannons were no joke. They could shoot you down in minutes, and you wouldn't even have a place to cry out for your grievances.
Because this was the Imperial City, many people who did not know the truth thought that this was a restricted area of the Imperial family.
Only a few people knew that this area actually belonged to the Lin and Bai families.
Since it was a family gathering, everyone was the core disciples of the two families, and there would be no outsiders.
But because the two families had been on good terms for generations, when the disciples of the two families met, they would stop and smile, greet each other, and then go to their respective places where the dinner was held.
So when Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin sat in a taxi and appeared in this area, it was especially eye-catching.
This was because the others were either in top-notch limited edition luxury sports cars, dignified and grand executive edition flying cars, or top-notch small aircraft that cost a lot.
In any case, no matter what they were, there was no such strange thing as a taxi.
It was like a big rooster suddenly sneaking into a flock of peacocks, and the kind that walked in with its head held high.
As soon as the taxi appeared, the people who were chatting amiably revealed strange expressions.
"How did this taxi get in?"
"Aren't taxis prohibited from entering?"
"Anyone with an identification code can come in, but I'm curious, who is so casual about it?"
"Yeah, yeah, isn't this a little too casual?"
Some of the young people, in particular, looked at the taxi curiously as it flew over the Bai family's banquet venue and slowly landed at the Lin family's side.
On the other side, the Bai family's head, Bai Rui, was getting out of a luxurious executive limousine, accompanied by a group of Bai family elders.
Facing the group of people who greeted him, they all wore cordial and hypocritical smiles on their faces.
On the Lin family's side, a group of young people had also gathered together, including some young disciples of the Bai family. Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the taxi.
Then, the taxi door opened, and the first person to get out was a handsome young man who couldn't help but take a second look, a third look, a fourth look … Then, there was only one thought left in their minds: How could this person be so handsome?
Gasp!
On the Lin family's side, a group of young men and women couldn't help but sigh softly.
It was a meaningless sigh due to shock.
Many people also recognized the young man's identity at a glance — Shirō Makino!
The Bai family next door!
But why did this guy come to the Lin family's side?
Many of the young disciples of the Bai family in the crowd looked a little awkward the moment they saw Shirō Makino.
What was he doing here?
Then, Shirō Makino went to the other side and bent down to open the car door.
If it wasn't a taxi, but an executive limousine limousine, no one could find any fault with it.
What a gentlemanly young man.
But a taxi …
Some of the young people couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This handsome guy was really fun!
From the car door, a leg wearing wide trousers extended out. Even though the trousers were very wide, one could still see that the leg was especially straight and round, especially slender. Then, a hand rested on Shirō Makino's hand.
Then, a human fairy stepped out of the taxi.
So beautiful!
This was the common thought of everyone present at this moment.
Usually, Lin Zijin was already a peerless beauty.
Today, Lin Zijin, who had specially dressed up, really looked like a fairy who had walked out of the Nine Heavens.
Standing next to Shirō Makino, the two of them reflected each other's beauty. At this moment, the taxi … could no longer be seen.
Because in the world, there was only this pair of lovers.
On the other side, Bai Rui and the others couldn't help but cast their gazes over.
Bai Rui, the head of the Bai family, had a complicated look in his eyes. Looking at Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin, he couldn't help but sigh softly.
Who would have thought that he would become such a stunning beauty when he grew up?
If he had known that the child was so talented back then, he wouldn't have …
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now.
On the other hand, the few people around Bai Rui had ugly expressions on their faces.
Someone snorted coldly. "Not attending his own family's gathering, but acting like a son-in-law, coming to someone else's territory. Isn't he ashamed?"
Someone else chimed in. "He's lost all face!"
Bai Rui thought for a moment. "Let's go."
He didn't look over there again. Instead, he took big strides and walked inside.
At this time, on the Bai family's side, a young man who had overheard the words of the people around Bai Rui couldn't help but shout at Shirō Makino. "Today is the Bai family's gathering. Even if you want to be a son-in-law, you should consider your family's reputation, right? Don't tell me there's no food here at the Bai family? "
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the person who had spoken.
