Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 152 - 152 152 Finally Seeing Her True Face

Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Finally Seeing Her True Face Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Finally Seeing Her True Face This was of course a lie.

And the people over at Shengfei Bay knew it was false as well.

But she believed that as long as she spoke of it, that man would turn it into truth.

After all, he wouldn’t want to marry her either.

The old master finally sat down in dejection.

“What a pity, I thought that brat was finally blessed this time, having found a wife who would be the wind beneath his wings, too bad.”

He slumped in his chair, his face full of regret and disappointment.

When Yin Hehe saw this, she sipped her tea as she sat back down and also forced a smile.

Then he was mistaken.

To his son, she was not a blessing, but a plague.

The living room fell quiet again.

Outside in the yard, upon learning that Yin Hehe was already married, the old granny who seemed to come alive had gone to the front courtyard to find her precious grandson.

“Old Madam, Miss Lin’s father has come again, and he’s outside requesting to see you.”

No sooner had she reached the front yard than a servant came to report.

People from the Lin Family?

Disgust flared between the matriarch’s brows at the mention of this family, and she was about to have them sent away.

But as she raised her hand, she suddenly remembered the scene that had occurred in the inner courtyard just moments before.

That’s right, the old man liked that nanny so much, who knew what other changes might occur later. If that was the case, between Lin Shuang and that nanny, she would rather choose Miss Lin, who was a known quantity.

“Let him in!”

The matriarch finally relented.

At once, Lin’s father, who had been waiting at the doorway and was overjoyed, hurriedly entered bowing and scraping with the gifts in hand.

“Old Madam, how have you been lately? This is wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain that I asked someone to bring over, for you to replenish your health.”

Upon approaching the old lady, Lin’s father respectfully presented the gifts he brought.

The Old Madam glanced at them.

The items were certainly exquisite.

Throughout the years, in order to cling to the Sheng Family, the Lin Family had never given anything substandard.

The Old Madam had the servants take it away.

“Old Lin, how is Xiaoshuang doing at home lately? Has she reflected on her mistakes?”

“Yes, yes, yes…” Lin’s father immediately nodded.

“She has been locking herself in her room, not going to the hospital for work, nor seeing Xixi. She said that she has made a grave mistake and must reflect properly. Only when she obtains your forgiveness will she dare to come out.”

Lin’s father was cunning, making his domineering act of locking up his daughter seem like it was Lin Shuang’s own self-reflection.

Sure enough, the old lady appeared very satisfied with his words.

“Good, it’s good for a child to know her mistakes and correct them. Find a time to have her come over and give me acupuncture, my bones and muscles have been so sore lately, having not moved for a while.”

“Of course, of course, I’ll tell her right away.”

Lin’s father was so elated he could have jumped for joy.

However, he didn’t leave, but instead scanned the courtyard.

All of a sudden, he asked, “By the way, Old Madam, is the old master at home? I’ve also brought some gifts for him.”

“He’s in the inner courtyard, go find him. But be careful, he’s chatting with that nanny, don’t disturb them.”

The Old Madam’s tone suddenly turned very cold.

Especially when mentioning Yin Hehe, her expression was filled with disgust.

Seeing her react this way, Lin’s father was of course very pleased.

Still, he went to the inner courtyard with the gifts in hand, curious to see what sort of person this nanny really was.

If Sheng Zhong valued this woman so much, then even if the Old Madam loosened her stance and allowed his daughter to come over, there wouldn’t be much hope.

Lin’s father arrived at the back courtyard.

“Old Master, you don’t have to be so disheartened. Since I am a friend of Miss Yin, surely I would help if the Shengshi ever needs it.”

In the warm and cozy tea room of the inner courtyard, sat a delicate and slender young woman in front of the tea table.

Her spine was ramrod straight.

But as she reached out to lift the small, green teacup from the tea tray, she did so with warmth and elegance.

Such posture was certainly beyond the capabilities of Lin Huanqi, his daughter.

“Alright then, I thank you in advance.”

The old gentleman, hearing this, could only give a bitter smile from across the tea tray.

As the two of them were drinking, suddenly, someone came in.

“Excuse me, old gentleman, I am Lin Huanqi. I heard that your back pain has been bothering you again. Xiaoshuang specifically asked me to deliver a box of pills.”

It turned out to be Father Lin at the doorway.

Yin Hehe immediately looked towards the old gentleman in front of her, only to discover that upon hearing this man’s name, his face darkened immediately.

“I don’t need it!”

He refused quite brusquely.

Instantly, Father Lin standing at the door turned the color of a liver.

In the end, it was Yin Hehe who spoke up for him, “Old gentleman, since he’s already brought the medicine, perhaps you should accept it. Your back is important.”

“Fine then, bring it in,” the old gentleman actually heeded her advice and relented at once.

Father Lin stood outside, full of resentment all over again.

After a moment, he walked in with the pills in hand, heading towards the tea tray.

Yin Hehe, sitting there, sensed this, so she shifted to the side to allow the man to pass by.

But then, for some reason, as Lin Father reached behind her, he stumbled as if tripped by something.

“Smack!”

“Ah—”

Yin Hehe, entirely unprepared, was pressed down heavily by this man, her face crashing towards the tea tray in front of her.

“You scoundrel, what do you think you’re doing? Can’t you walk properly?”

The old gentleman, sitting across from her, saw everything and immediately stood up in rage.

But by then it was too late, Yin Hehe’s face had already smashed the teacup she had just used.

She felt stars igniting with fury.

“I’m so sorry, my eyesight is failing, it’s all my fault. Are you alright, miss?”

Father Lin immediately got up, rushing to help Yin Hehe, whom he had accidentally knocked over.

Yin Hehe promptly waved her hand.

“It’s nothing, old gentleman, don’t blame him. It was an accident; I’m not seriously hurt. I will go to the restroom to take care of it.”

Despite the pain in her head, she pulled out a tissue from the box beside her and covered her face with it.

She quickly got up and supported herself on her way out.

Father Lin stared fixedly at her retreating figure.

“Someone, throw him out!” the old gentleman completely lost his temper, bellowing out loud.

Immediately, the servants of the old residence all came over.

Lin Huanqi was eventually thrown out.

However, he had already seen what he wanted. The nanny, even though she moved very quickly to cover up just now.

But he still saw it, from her cheek to the root of her ear there was a clear difference in skin tone, as if something were out of place.

Father Lin went back satisfied.

Meanwhile, inside the old residence, Yin Hehe, who had hurriedly rushed to the restroom, stood inside with the door closed. When she saw that the face in the mirror had been dislodged from the impact, she stared blankly for several minutes.

It could actually come off?

A slow surge of surprise rose from the bottom of her heart, and after a moment, she raised her trembling fingers.

“Hiss—”

She finally tore off the facade.

But to her utter surprise, the reflection that appeared in the mirror was that of a perfectly flawless beauty, as if an eggshell had been peeled off.
