Chapter 662: 141: Owner_5

Mother Zhao, now over eighty years of age, has weathered all kinds of storms.

As she finished speaking, she continued, "Have you seen the recent movies?"

"What movie?" Lin Guixiang was quite puzzled.

She thought to herself, this old lady really keeps up with the times!

She even knows about the latest movies.

Mother Zhao said, "It’s the movie adapted from that case of murdering a wife for insurance money."

What’s the biggest taboo for horror movies?

The biggest taboo is adapting from real events.

Lin Guixiang nodded, "I haven’t seen the movie, but I’ve seen the news about it."

The gist of the news was that a newlywed wife was pushed into the hotel swimming pool by her husband, who wanted the large insurance payout, and drowned her because she couldn’t swim.

Although the case was eventually cracked, a vibrant life had been forever lost to this world.

Mother Zhao looked up at Lin Guixiang and said very seriously, "So, Guixiang, you must choose a partner of equal standing. If you choose someone without money, his whole family might be scheming after your wealth. A girl should never try to lift others out of poverty. Because wealthy people won’t scheme after your money, and your life won’t be threatened because of it."

Heed advice to be well fed.

Lin Guixiang knew that Mother Zhao’s words were for her own good and smiled, nodding, "Okay, Aunt Zhao, I understand. I’ll take your words to heart."

Seeing Lin Guixiang so receptive, Mother Zhao was very pleased.

Dinner was soon served.

Today was the first day of cooking in the new home, and Zhao Cuinong had prepared a large table of dishes.

King crab, abalone, sea cucumber, and other rare seafood were all available.

There was also the sauerkraut fish and spicy lobster that Lin Wu liked, boiled meat, and more...

Zhao Cuinong even made a special bowl of unseasoned cat food for Shaliva.

Shaliva sat gracefully by Lin Guodong, enjoying its cat food.

Halfway through the meal, Lin Bingqiang and Zhao Cuinong stood up to toast Lin Guixiang, "Big sister, we’re not good with words, but our feelings are clear without them. We’ll drink first as a tribute!"

Lin Guixiang nodded and also downed her cup of fruit wine in one gulp.

Then, Zhao Shengli and Zhou Ping, the couple, stood up to toast Lin Guixiang as well.

Meanwhile,

At the Sun Family’s.

Until dinner time, Lin Guimei had not come out to eat.

Sun Shanshan was very puzzled and looked at Mother Sun, "Did something happen to Mom? She has been cooped up in her room all day and hasn’t come out."

Hearing this, Mother Sun snorted coldly, "If I were her, I too would be too embarrassed to come out."

Sun Shanshan frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss, "Grandma, what happened?"

Mother Sun’s face looked troubled.

She even didn’t know how to explain it to her granddaughter.

As Mother Sun was silent for a long while, Sun Shanshan became even more anxious, "Grandma, please talk! What’s wrong with my mom?"

Mother Sun weighed her words in her mind, finally summing it up, "The matter of your mother becoming the manager at Beauty Chant might have fallen through."

What?!

The matter of becoming the manager at Beauty Chant has fallen through?

Sun Shanshan’s eyes widened suddenly in shock.

Wasn’t Lin Guimei’s job at Beauty Chant a done deal?

How could it just fall through all of a sudden?

Sun Shanshan’s face turned pale as she tried to calm herself, "Grandma, you’re joking, right?"

Yes.

Her grandma must be joking.

But this joke was not at all funny.

"I’m not joking," Mother Sun sighed, "Your mother went to Beauty Chant this morning to go through the employment procedures and was kicked out."

Hearing this answer, Sun Shanshan’s blood ran cold, and she almost couldn’t stand upright.

Everyone around Sun Shanshan knew her mother was about to become the manager of Beauty Chant, but now...

Her friends all envied her for having a mother who would manage Beauty Chant.

But now, Mother Sun suddenly told her that Lin Guimei couldn’t be the manager, how could Sun Shanshan accept it?

No!

This can’t be true.

"Grandma, you’re lying to me, right?" At this moment, Sun Shanshan’s voice was trembling.

Mother Sun understood Sun Shanshan’s feelings, as they were in the same plight, both facing the embarrassment that came with Lin Guimei’s situation.

She also wished it weren’t true.

But it was true!

Mother Sun pinched the bridge of her nose, her eyes showing a trace of fatigue, "Go ask your mother yourself."

Upon hearing this, Sun Shanshan immediately headed towards the master bedroom.

The door was closed.

Without bothering to knock, Sun Shanshan turned the doorknob directly and walked in.

The room’s light was off.

Although it was a bit dark, she could vaguely make out Lin Guimei sitting in front of the bed.

"Mom," Sun Shanshan walked straight up to Lin Guimei, "Can’t you really manage Beauty Chant anymore? Grandma must be joking with me, right?"
