Lin Jingquan and Lin Jinghui, as well as Lin Chen and Lin Nuan, had all bought smartphones for Old Master Lin. Old Master Lin said he wasn't used to it, so he either gave it to the servants or the chauffeur.
She didn't expect Old Master Lin to suddenly want to use a smartphone at his age.
Hearing Lin Nuan say that the brightness of the screen had been adjusted to the lowest, Old Master Lin put on his presbyopic glasses again. The two of them looked at the screen together and heard Old Master Lin ask, "Then how should I operate it?"
Lin Nuan carefully explained to Old Master Lin how to adjust the brightness to the highest …
The screen lit up, and Lin Nuan saw that it was the official promotional photo of "The Exorcist" that Lin Nuan had shot!
Old Master Lin tapped on the photo, and it happened to be Lin Nuan's back view in a black phoenix robe. Director Chen had asked the photographer to take that photo, and there were six words written on it: "You exorcise the demon, I submit."
Lin Nuan's eyes reddened. She recalled Old Master Lin's question about whether it was her in the photo, and her heart felt suffocated.
Taking care of Old Master Lin's old age and poor eyesight, Lin Nuan increased the size of the font on the screen.
The two of them fiddled with it for a long time before Lin Nuan returned the phone to Old Master Lin. "Grandpa, take a look and see if there's anything wrong."
"Where do I usually read the news?"
Lin Nuan downloaded a news app for Old Master Lin and taught him how to read the news on a regular basis.
Old Master Lin looked through it for a long time and asked some questions …
The two of them stayed together for a long time, and even when Assistant Liu came in with chrysanthemum tea, the two of them were still fiddling with their phones.
"Old Master, we should go out when we're done resting! Old Master Fu was asking you just now … "Assistant Liu whispered into Old Master Lin's ear, who was obsessed with his phone.
"Has the engagement ceremony started?" Old Master Lin asked as he held up his presbyopic glasses and narrowed his eyes.
"Not yet!"
"What's the rush? We can go out when it starts. I get angry every time I see Fu Qingquan's mistress! " Old Master Lin frowned. He didn't care that this was the Fu family's territory and acted like he had his own temper.
"Old Master …" Assistant Liu smiled helplessly and looked at Lin Nuan as if asking for help. "The doctor said that your eyes aren't suitable for staring at a phone screen for a long time!"
The old master looked up and glanced at Assistant Liu. "The doctor said that your lungs aren't good and told you to smoke less. Did you listen to him?"
Assistant Liu: "…"
"The pot calling the kettle black!" Old Master Lin put away his phone, removed his presbyopic glasses, and handed them to Assistant Liu. He gazed at Lin Nuan with his deep gaze. "How does Fu Huai 'an treat you?"
Lin Nuan smiled and nodded. "He treats me very well …"
Old Master Lin didn't believe Lin Nuan's words easily. He sized her up and frowned. "Why did you lose weight?"
Old Master Lin knew how many years it had been since he last saw Lin Nuan. That child had always been avoiding him!
He hadn't wanted to come to the Fu Family's manor to attend this illegitimate son's engagement banquet, but after thinking about it …
First of all, Fu Qingquan and Old Master Lin were schoolmates in the past. This time, he was here to show some respect for their business cooperation. Fu Qingquan was such an arrogant person, yet he personally called Old Master Lin. One had to know that the Lins and the Fus were never on the same level!
Secondly, although that child was an illegitimate son, his family background wasn't something he could've chosen himself. He was innocent.
Thirdly, Old Master Fu also wanted to see if he could see Lin Nuan here today.
"Because I want to be on camera. I have to lose some weight to look good on camera." Lin Nuan raised a hand to cover her petite face and smiled at Old Master Fu.
"What's there to look good on camera when you're so skinny?" Old Master Lin frowned. "Find some time to go back and stay for a while. Let Auntie Ma take care of your body. Don't get pregnant before your body recovers. That won't be good for you!"
Old Master Lin's tone was as firm as ever. Lin Nuan clenched her fists by her sides, but she didn't manage to say that she wouldn't go back.
Under the warm lighting, Old Master Lin looked at Lin Nuan's lowered eyelashes. He propped his hands on the sofa's armrests and stood up. He adjusted his suit and said, "Remember to give your grandma a call before you come back. Your grandma will surely be happy!"
Hearing this, Assistant Liu thought that the two of them had come to an end and felt a little happy. He opened the door for Old Master Lin.
After sending Old Master Lin out, Lin Nuan was still standing in the resting room. Assistant Liu thought that Lin Nuan was going to come out too, so he didn't close the door.
Lin Nuan had just walked out when she heard someone scolding Fu Huai 'an …
"No wonder you trembled in fear when you saw that Fu Huai 'an! That Fu Huai 'an is too much of a jerk! I'm going to settle scores with Fu Qingquan! Guang Pu is Mu Mantong's cousin, after all! He, Fu Huai 'an, is a grandson of the Fus. No matter what, he's still a junior! How could he be so heavy-handed on Guang Pu, crippling his manhood! "
Lin Nuan heard the voice coming from the room next door and felt that it was a little familiar.
"Mom!" A gentle and soft female voice rang out, sounding a little anxious. "Stop fooling around! Mu Mantong is getting engaged today. If this matter blows up and Mu Mantong can't get engaged, Guang Pu will have to bear the consequences! All these years, outsiders have seen Guang Pu doing well, but I've seen with my own eyes how much suffering Guang Pu has gone through in order to curry favor with Old Master Mu! What suffering he has gone through! Stop adding to the mess! "
"Are you silly? This is something that will affect you for the rest of your life. Now, Guang Pu can't do it anymore! You have to make Fu Huai 'an take responsibility for the rest of your life! "
Hearing this, Lin Nuan had already moved to the door of the resting room next door. For some reason, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.
Make Fu Huai 'an take responsibility? How was she going to take responsibility?
Peeking through the crack of the door that wasn't tightly shut, she saw a mother and daughter inside. The daughter was clutching her mother's arm with tears streaming down her face.
Lin Nuan saw the slightly plump middle-aged woman clearly. Wasn't she the middle-aged woman who said that their cat had eaten their Showa tricolor?
Lin Nuan's eyes narrowed slightly. She whipped out her phone from her handbag and turned on the camera.
Lin Nuan had tried this method every time!
It was simple and crude, but very effective …
"Moreover!" The middle-aged woman lowered her voice. "It's better if this matter blows up! Look … previously, there were rumors that Old Master Mu made Guang Pu change his surname to Mu because he wanted to groom Guang Pu to be the successor of the Mu family! This Mu Mantong is handicapped and can't walk. If the husband she finds isn't able to support her, Guang Pu will have a way out in the future! Even if you don't have any hope in your married life in the future, you can still count on money! "
The young woman looked at her mother, stunned …
