Chapter 166 The Lin Family Leaves the Imperial Star
I woke up to find the weather had changed!
This is how Lin Zihao and Lin Keke truly feel at this moment.
After the two woke up, the family of four hugged each other and cried, venting their frustrations of the past few days. Of course, this mainly referred to Lin Chenghui and his wife.
Lin Zihao was overcome with grief because of his paralysis, and he did not hide his vulnerability from his parents at this moment.
"Where is Grandmother? And the others?" After crying, Lin Keke asked the question that had been bothering her. In the past, if they had a headache or fever, the Lin family would fill their house, but now, only her parents were by her side.
The room fell silent immediately after he said that.
Lin Zihao also had the same question, but his sister asked it first.
The brother and sister both looked at their parents, who hadn't yet wiped away their tears, their eyes filled with incomprehension.
Lin Chenghui and Deng Yunfang were stunned and froze on the spot. They hesitated whether to tell their children the truth, after all, given Zihao and Keke's current condition, they were afraid that knowing the truth would be even more unbearable.
The siblings noticed something was wrong with their parents and began to have bad feelings about it.
"Mom, what happened? Why isn't Grandma here?" Lin Zihao asked.
Deng Yunfang looked at her husband, seeking his opinion.
Lin Chenghui closed his eyes briefly to stop the tears from falling, and nodded. Things had come to this point; what was there left to hide? Besides, their mother's mourning hall was still there, and the two children could just make it to pay their respects to their grandmother.
With her husband's permission, Deng Yunfang told her children everything that had happened in the past few days. She even stopped talking because her children couldn't believe her.
After she finished telling the story in fits and starts, the brother and sister both looked completely lost, which made her heart sink to the bottom again.
"Zihao, Keke, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Mommy, Mommy can't bear it if something happens to you!" Deng Yunfang hugged one of them with heartache.
After a long silence, Lin Zihao's hoarse voice finally rang out, "So, we really did suffer because of revenge, and that enemy is actually a member of the Lin family?"
He had already believed his mother's words, and the only reason he was still asking was because he was unwilling to accept it.
Who could he blame? His grandmother? She had already paid the price. Besides, without her initial planning, they, the younger generation, wouldn't have had the chance to come into this world.
Should we blame that girl who should be called our cousin? It seems we have no right to do so. Putting ourselves in her shoes, if it were him, he would also seek revenge.
Compared to his relatively calm demeanor, Lin Keke was completely unable to accept this fact.
Why? If it were anyone else, she might not have reacted so strongly. Why her of all people? That wretched girl who was even worse than a servant in her household, left to fend for herself in a corner.
If there was anyone in the Lin family who was relatively familiar with the original owner, it would undoubtedly be Lin Keke. After all, the original owner had been her punching bag and the object of her teasing and pranks since childhood.
Now, that girl who wasn't even worthy to carry her shoes has turned the tables, not only bringing the Lin family down from their high position but also causing her and her siblings to suffer in vain and even killing their grandmother. How can she accept this?
And another thing, she is actually Mo Ze's fiancée! She has always strived to marry into the Mo family, and even asked her father to test the Mo family, but they were not satisfied with her. Instead, they favored that brat. Why her of all people?
"Mom, it can't be hers, right? That brat, what right does she have?" Lin Keke couldn't suppress the hatred in her eyes. She broke free from Deng Yunfang's hand and wanted to get out of bed to settle accounts with Lin Shushu.
"Coco, accept your fate, we can't beat her." Deng Yunfang held her down tightly and earnestly advised her.
Seeing his daughter crying and making a fuss, Lin Chenghui hardened his heart and said, "Alright, stop making a fuss. Now that you're awake, go and see your grandmother off. It won't be in vain that she loved you so much."
After saying that, he walked out first.
Unable to move, Lin Zihao looked at Deng Yunfang and asked, "Mom, do you have a wheelchair?"
"Oh, wait here, I'll go find it for you." Deng Yunfang then woke up with a start. Although her son was awake, his leg was still not healed.
After the couple left, Lin Zihao looked dejected. He looked at his sister, who still had a resentful expression, and said, "Coco, things have changed at home. You need to change your temper."
In the past, his father was the heir of the Lin family, and his family was high and mighty. No matter how arrogant his sister was, there were always people who tolerated her. But now, everything has changed.
Lin Zihao projected his personal computer screen into the air, displaying various news items about Lin Shushu's deeds. He had just taken a look at it in a spare moment, and after seeing it, he completely abandoned any inappropriate thoughts he might have had.
Lin Keke's mouth dropped open; the shock she felt today was far beyond her comprehension. How could someone so unknown suddenly become so powerful, so unattainable to them?
Until Deng Yunfang somehow managed to get a wheelchair, the three of them silently headed towards the mourning hall.
Upon seeing the brother and sister regain consciousness, some people were happy for them, while others curled their lip in disdain.
Ning Ya's children and grandchildren were naturally delighted, while the other branches of the Lin family were disdainful.
The Lin family's current downfall is entirely due to Ning Ya. Their presence here now is merely to watch the spectacle. They are not so magnanimous as to smile at Ning Ya's descendants.
After Ning Ya's funeral arrangements are completed, it's time for the Lin family members of Lin Yu's lineage to leave their ancestral home.
The door that slammed shut behind them seemed to push them completely into an unknown future.
Lin Keke never expected that when she left the Imperial Star in disgrace, the only person who came to see her off was her long-time nemesis, Xiao Qin.
The two had been rivals for years, but they only maintained a facade of friendship; their relationship was far from good.
"Are you here to laugh at me? Well, that's right, the two beauties of the Imperial Star will only have you from now on, which is indeed worth celebrating." Lin Keke said to Xiao Qin in a sarcastic tone.
Xiao Qin wasn't annoyed by her unfriendly tone. Perhaps because they had both been defeated by the same person, Xiao Qin couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow.
"Think what you will. We've been secretly competing for so many years. Even if we're not friends, we're still formidable rivals. My presence here to see you off is a way of fulfilling our friendship."
Xiao Qin's words were so sincere that Lin Keke was incredulous. She opened her mouth and uttered a few words, "Thank you so much for your kindness!"
With this, Lin Yu's lineage completely left the power center of the Imperial Star, and no one cared what their future held.
Xiao Qin watched Lin Keke walk away, but her heart was not as calm as it appeared. She didn't attend the banquet that day because she didn't want to see Lin Shushu in such a glamorous state.
The news that followed made her lose even the slightest desire to compare herself to Lin Shushu. She thought she had already placed Lin Shushu in a very high position, but little did she know that it wasn't even the peak.
Lin Shushu paid no attention to what happened to the Lin family; she had already returned to Star M19. Jin Siyue and her husband, along with their daughter Mo Lin, also returned with her.
