Chapter 206: 078: True Colors!_7

The person who opened the door was Lin Bingqiang.

"Do you need something, Second Sister?" His attitude was a bit poor.

When Lin Guixiang just had her birthday, Lin Guimei didn’t come, so what was the point of coming now?

Lin Bingqiang was truly disappointed in this second sister.

Lin Guimei from childhood surely wasn’t like this.

Lin Guimei seemed not to notice Lin Bingqiang’s upset expression and glanced inside the house, "Where’s Big Sister?"

Lin Bingqiang glanced at her, "She went home."

As he spoke, Lin Bingqiang continued, "I really don’t understand. Is that supermarket of yours so busy? You couldn’t even make it for a meal on Big Sister’s birthday!"

Seeing her brother like this, Lin Guimei was speechless.

They didn’t share a blood relation, so why should her brother be angry with her over someone from outside the family?

"Qiangzi, I already know everything."

"What do you know?" Lin Bingqiang frowned.

"Big Sister was adopted by mom and dad, she’s not our real older sister." Strictly speaking, she had no relationship with Lin Guixiang, so she shouldn’t owe Lin Guixiang any form of contribution.

Hearing these words, Lin Bingqiang turned pale with anger, "Second Sister! Do you realize what you’re saying? If it weren’t for Big Sister, could we have gone to college and have the life we do now?"

Every time Zhao Cuinong mentioned that Lin Guimei didn’t know how to be grateful, Lin Bingqiang always tried to cover up for her a bit.

After all, they were real siblings.

Sometimes he felt that Lin Guimei had a hard time at her in-laws’ place over the years.

But now,

He had actually heard such words from Lin Guimei’s mouth.

What did Lin Guimei mean?

Just because Big Sister wasn’t related by blood, did that erase all her contributions over the years?

This made Lin Bingqiang very angry!

Seeing her brother getting angry, Lin Guimei immediately changed her tone, "Qiangzi, look at you, why are you getting irritated? You know me, I’ve always been blunt and speak my mind, but I never had any bad intentions! If I were really that heartless, would I come here to look for her? Would I bring her a birthday gift?"

Lin Guimei posed two questions in a row, which baffled Lin Bingqiang. After speaking, she simply pushed the gift box she was holding into Lin Bingqiang’s hands, "This is the birthday present I prepared for Big Sister, please pass it on to her."

Her brother really was missing a beat.

He didn’t know what was important.

Lin Guixiang was not even related to them by blood; why would he get angry with her over an outsider?

Has he forgotten that in this world, she is his only true younger sister?

"Why don’t you deliver it yourself?" Lin Bingqiang asked.

It was one thing for Lin Guimei not to show up at Lin Guixiang’s birthday, but now even the birthday gift had to be delivered by someone else.

What did this mean?

Lin Guimei casually came up with an excuse, "Shan Shan has a dance exam early tomorrow morning, I need to get up early to take her to school."

Hearing this, Lin Bingqiang’s expression softened a bit, and he said, "Then you should head back and rest early."

After Lin Guimei left, Lin Bingqiang closed the door, planning to deliver the gift to Lin Guixiang later with his wife.

Just then, Zhao Cuinong came out from the bedroom, "Did someone come by just now?"

Lin Bingqiang nodded, "It was Second Sister."

"What did she want?" Zhao Cuinong’s brow furrowed slightly, "Big Sister already went home. It’s all an act."

Lin Bingqiang subconsciously made excuses for his second sister, "Don’t say that, actually, Second Sister is not bad. She specifically came to give Big Sister a gift. If she didn’t care about Big Sister at all, would she make the trip?"

Hearing this, Zhao Cuinong’s gaze landed on the box in Lin Bingqiang’s hand, "This one?"

"Yes." Lin Bingqiang nodded.

Zhao Cuinong laughed, "I can guarantee there’s nothing valuable in there."

Lin Bingqiang frowned slightly, "You shouldn’t always be hostile towards my elder sister."

"Me, hostile? Lin Bingqiang, if you don’t believe me, you can open it right now and see."

Although it felt somewhat impolite to open someone else’s gift, Zhao Cuinong still wanted to see what Lin Guimei had actually given Lin Guixiang as a perfunctory gift.

As she finished speaking, Zhao Cuinong didn’t wait for Lin Bingqiang to react. She took the bag from his hand and pulled out the contents directly.

Inside was a pair of very ordinary pearl earrings.

Although Lin Bingqiang didn’t understand jewelry, he recognized the logo on the jewelry box, "This is LG jewelry. Last year, I also bought you some. Their products start at a minimum of a thousand."

Being able to gift something worth over a thousand showed that Lin Guimei still had her sister, Lin Guixiang, in her heart.

Zhao Cuinong was taken aback.

She had just thought she was seeing things, but now it appeared the item was indeed branded.

How could Lin Guimei be so generous?

This was very abnormal!

Lin Bingqiang continued, "Cuinong, my elder sister is just a bit blunt. Don’t speak about her like that in the future."

Isn’t it better for the family to live in harmony?

Just then, Zhao Cuinong seemed to remember something. Pointing at the earrings in the box, she said, "I remember now! These earrings are just promotional gifts, no wonder I thought why your elder sister suddenly became so polite!"

With that, Zhao Cuinong went on to say, "Your elder sister really knows how to annoy people. If she didn’t want to give a gift, then she shouldn’t have given one. Who is she trying to insult with this kind of promotional item?"

"Don’t talk nonsense!" Even though Lin Guimei was stingy, Lin Bingqiang believed she absolutely wouldn’t do such a thing.

"You don’t believe it, right? I’ve bought a necklace from this brand before which came with an identical promotional gift. I’ll bring it out now to show you!" As soon as she finished he sentence, Zhao Cuinong headed towards the bedroom.

Soon, she came out holding a pair of earrings that were exactly the same, "See! This is just a plastic promotional item!"

Even the pearls were fake.

"If you don’t believe me, you can take them to an LG store tomorrow and ask!"

Lin Bingqiang frowned slightly.

He didn’t understand why Lin Guimei would do such a thing.

Lin Guimei ran a supermarket, and her brother-in-law, Sun Dingbang, also had a stable job and income. Their daily lives were very prosperous, how could they possibly not afford a decent gift?

Besides.

Lin Guixiang had struggled to bring them both up, so even if there wasn’t the bond of blood, they should at least remember the favor of being raised by her.

This action of hers was truly disheartening.

Thinking thus, Lin Bingqiang sighed lightly.

Zhao Cuinong frowned slightly, raising her head to look at Lin Bingqiang, "You never believed what I said before, now you must know what kind of person your elder sister is, right?"

Lin Bingqiang was silent for a long time.

Zhao Cuinong continued, "Do you know why your elder sister has always been unwilling to invest in elder sister’s Beauty Chant? Because she has never thought highly of elder sister and Xiao Wu, she never believed elder sister could succeed! Just watch, the day she finds out Beauty Chant is making money, she’ll definitely come running!"

——

Capital City.

Fang Youling packed her luggage, ready to set out for East City to collect blood samples.

Fang Hongyu saw her off at the airport.

"Auntie, I wish you a safe journey. After you land, remember to send me a message."

"Okay, Hongyu." Fang Youling nodded and smiled, "Take care of things at home for me, will you?"

"What are you saying, Auntie? It’s what I should do. Hurry to the boarding gate, you’re going to be late if you don’t go now!" Fang Hongyu glanced at her watch and urged.

"Alright." Fang Youling pushed her luggage trolley and walked towards the security checkpoint.

Fang Youling had barely disappeared in the direction of the security checkpoint when Fang Hongyu’s assistant came trotting over and whispered a few words in her ear.

Upon hearing this, Fang Hongyu’s expression changed, "What! Qing City?!"
