Chapter 304 - Shuting Lin Zian Up

*********

CHAPTER 304

Li Jing couldn’t describe it, this feeling, it was new and daring and bold and strong and overwhelming. She felt her heart bleed just recalling the picture of the dazzling beauty in the portrait.

It was a case were one would say blood was indeed thicker than water.

"I wish that too. I wish I could have known her."

"My child." Lin Huilang broke and let her heart out. She could not help it and pulled Li Jing into her arms, hugging the young lady like it was the last time they would see.

Yin Lifen who was somewhere else, rushed up to meet the duo and joined in the hug. It was really a touching moment for them.

It started with a call from Tang Zixin and ended in tears because of her mother.

The next day came quickly and at the appointed time, Tang Zixin arrived at the Lin Mansion to pick Li Jing up.

Before they left he met with Yin Lifen and Lin Huilang. Mrs Lin Huilang did not hesitate to tease him a bit as she loved when youngsters became shy in the process of a love talk.

"Tang Zixin, please treat my Li Jing well and make sure she has maximum fun today," Mrs Lin Huilang reminded him.

"Yes, Mrs Lin. I would ensure she enjoys herself today. Thank you for letting me take Li Jing out."

"No worries dear. I am sure she is in safe hands."

"Li Jing," Yinm Lifen called out happily.

"Yes?"

"Enjoy okay. No thinking of work or any other thing alright. This is your time off. This is your break, enjoy it while it last."

"Sure, thanks."

"We would be on our way now, Mrs Lin," Tang Zixin announced.

"Yeah, I am happy you are beginning to take my advice Tang Zixin. Hold unto her close lets those other guys at the park would snatch her away, hehheee..."

"Sure. I would," Tang Zixin replied her with a shy smile. This unfortunately had failed to go unnoticed from Li Jing’s keen eyes and she shook her head at him.

He really was cute when he was shy and she loved the fact that she saw this side of him. In fact she preferred the shy side of him. It made him look carefree and all.

"Li Jing, shall we go?"

"Yes, we can. Bye auntie, bye Fen Fen."

"Bye, nice meeting you again, Tang Zixin."

"Nice meeting you too. Bye."

He moved ahead of Li Jing a bit and went to open the front door for her to enter. As soon as she entered, he shut the door, waved at Yin Lifen and her Lin Huilang before moving into the driver’s seat and entering.

In no time they had already driven off out of the Lin Mansion.

All these while, Mr Lin Zian had been busy arranging some needed things for their upcoming project that he failed to notice that his granddaughter was already busy having fun with someone else and not the Kim Fan he was hoping she would befriend.

By the time he came out of the house due to the noise he was hearing, Li Jing and Tang Zixin was already gone.

"And what is all the commotion all about," he asked from behind them.

Both ladies turned around only to see the confused face of Lin Zian staring brightly at them.

"Hehhee, nothing, gramps. We were just telling jokes and nothing more, Yin Lifen quickly covered up and not let the cat out of the back.

"Is that so?" This time he directed his question particularly to his sister-in-law.

"It is as she said. We were telling jokes," Lin Huilang replied.

’Okay, I thought I heard Li Jing’s voice from inside the house. Now where is my lovely granddaughter?"

"Oh, she went out," Lin Huilang did not hide that part from him because she knew her brother-in-law, he would request that Li Jing come out to meet him if they lied that she was in doors.

"Is that so?"

"Yes."

"But I do see her car in the parking lot. So who took her? All the cars are complete."

historical

"Oh that is because she went out with a colleague from the office. They went shopping for some materials. She asked for Li Jing’s help."

"Okay, which colleague is that?" Lin Zian asked again.

"Enough with the questions, why are you asking to know the unnecessary details like she is a young girl?"

"Of course she is a young girl, Huilang. I need to know who my granddaughter goes out with to prevent anything from happening to her."

"Hear yourself, Zian. She is a grown up lady not a twelve years old."

"So was Qinyang but I lost her. I would not lose another one."

"You won’t if you do not cage her," Lin Huilang challenged him.

"What?"

"Yes. You are beginning to want to make the same mistakes as you did with Qinyang. When would you see it that you are at fault? I warn you, Lin Zian, I would not take it funny if anything were to happen to Li Jing. Let her be free. Come on Lifen, let’s go inside."

Without saying anything else, she walked past her brother-in-law with Yin Lifen and hurried inside the house.

She knew why she had half yelled at him like that/. It was to prevent him from asking further. Her instincts already told her what he was planning on doing and that is why she wanted Li Jing to hook up with Ye Cheng or Tang Zixin quick before her grandfather’s craziness started.

The last thing she wanted was for him to entrap her and the Li Jing she knew was too meek and may want to give in to his demands.

"Sigh, if only Li Jing had her mother’s stubbornness, then I can be rest assured that he cannot do anything. I refuse to let history repeat itself. Not on my watch. Qinyang would be angry if I let it happen wherever she maybe," Lin Huilang muttered under her breath.
