Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!
Chapter 990 - 419: Is this really my son's house? _2

At this moment, it feels like Zheng Yanyan is still better. At least she doesn't have this pressure, always feeling like she still has a chance.

While Tao Tian and Su Qing remained silent.

From the back seat, Lu Lin told Su Qing not to be too discouraged either.

"Jiang Xinyi might not win in the end."

Su Qing was still a bit bothered by the fact that Lu Lin held her down that day. She glanced at Lu Lin through the rearview mirror and sneered: "What, do you have some insight to offer?"

The tone was clearly off, but Lu Lin didn't mind. She said it's not about having insights.

"But I always feel that she's pushing Zhou Yuwen too hard, and Zhou Yuwen might not like it."

"?" Hearing this, Su Qing and Tao Tian were taken aback, looking at Lu Lin with surprise.

Lu Lin found it odd and said: "Don't you guys follow the news?"

Tao Tian actually noticed Lu Lin since last time, but Lu Lin usually kept a low profile, making it really hard to gauge her depth. Now was a rare chance to chat with Lu Lin.

Tao Tian said: "Aren't the current news reports all saying that Zhou Yuwen and Jiang Xinyi are a perfect match? That Jiang Xinyi is the woman behind Zhou Yuwen."

Before Tao Tian finished speaking, Su Qing couldn't help but interject sourly: "What woman behind him? What help does she offer Zhou Yuwen? It's nothing more than relying on her family's wealth. Whatever Zhou Yuwen has achieved today, he earned it himself. What does it have to do with that woman?"

Lu Lin said that this is exactly the problem.

Zhou Yuwen is not the kind of person to be led around by women, but Jiang Xinyi and her family are in too much of a hurry—not Jiang Xinyi, her mother is too anxious.

You can tell that her mom has a typical rich person's mindset, trying to find a golden son-in-law and then claiming all the credit for their family.

The current media narrative is clearly off.

Whether it was writing novels in the past or earning money later through deliveries,

it was all through his own efforts.

But what's written in the news now makes it seem like all of this was achieved because of Jiang Xinyi's support behind the scenes.

"If someone were to say there's no manipulation behind the scenes, I wouldn't believe it."

"You mean this is Jiang Xinyi's family intentionally doing it?" Tao Tian understood Lu Lin's point.

Lu Lin said: "If I can see through it, there's no way Zhou Yuwen doesn't understand. What he hates most are women who break the rules."

After saying this, the car fell into a long silence. Su Qing was silent because her eyes lit up, feeling like this might really be the case. But precisely because of this, she couldn't help but glance at Lu Lin and ask wistfully: "Why are you telling us all this?"

Lu Lin said: "I'm telling you not to worry, her good family background doesn't mean you don't have a chance."

Su Qing snorted, she said: "Even if you didn't say, I know."

After that, the car was silent again for a long time, with each of the three girls lost in their own thoughts. Tao Tian, who was driving the car, noticed that her chest was still heaving.

She couldn't help looking at Lu Lin more often through the mirror, the more she looked, the more she felt that Lu Lin was not simple.

But this complexity was not because she saw Lu Lin as an enemy.

Instead, she felt a desire to befriend her.

Su Qing, on the other hand, was pondering Lu Lin's words carefully, thinking more and more that she was right, isn't Jiang Xinyi's family just a bit wealthy?

But she was a reincarnated person, how could she feel doomed to fail just over some money?

The reincarnated person is least worried about money.

Trying to control Zhou Yuwen with just this was undoubtedly self-defeating.

Just like that, they unknowingly arrived at Qingli Bay.

The high-end villa had very low building density, surrounded by birds and flowers. Besides the luxurious gate, there were also a few security guards on duty there.

Tao Tian's car, having recorded the license plate, drove straight into the community.

Zhou Guobin's car, however, had to talk to the security before following.

Actually, earlier in the car, Zhou Guobin couldn't help but, in front of Zheng Yanyan, said a few words to educate Yang Lijuan, regarding her earlier comments about saving money by living at their son's house.

If you say it when there aren't people around, fine, but in front of everyone, saying that is a bit unrefined.

At least mind your status, right?

Yang Lijuan snorted after hearing this, saying: "What status do I have then?"

Zhou Guobin was at a loss for words, sighing, he said, you don't even know the size of the house Yuwen bought, we presume to live there just like that.

"Do you think this is respecting Yuwen? He's grown now, doing great business, buying a house and not telling us must have his reasons."

Yang Lijuan felt her husband was being unreasonable, thinking he just wanted to regain face after she embarrassed him.

Zheng Yanyan could make out a bit of the reason from the back, but she found it peculiar: "Uncle and Aunt, didn't Zhou Yuwen tell you about buying a house?"

Speaking of this matter, it was really a bit hard to explain. Yang Lijuan said, he's capable now and has his own ideas.

So, he never mentioned it?

Zheng Yanyan suddenly got excited, her naturally loose lips unable to keep things to herself, hearing that Zhou Guobin was still worried whether the house could accommodate both him and his wife,

Zheng Yanyan found it amusing, and she couldn't help but say: "Uncle and Aunt! Did you not know anything about Zhou Yuwen buying a house?"

Yang Lijuan was still sulking with Zhou Guobin, but seeing Zheng Yanyan's excitement, she asked: "Yanyan, do you know?"

Zheng Yanyan thought to herself, of course I know!

"Zhou Yuwen bought a large flat last semester, 180 square meters, four bedrooms and two living rooms!" Zheng Yanyan said.

This left Yang Lijuan stunned: "That big?"

As they spoke, they had reached the entrance of Qingli Bay. Zheng Yanyan said a word to the security, and the car drove in.

The scene before them enveloped in greenery, as the car drove deeper into the lush woods, everything looked more akin to villas hidden among the trees, rather than flats.

This made Zhou Guobin curious: "Xiao Zheng, you said Yuwen bought a flat, but I don't see any flats here?"

Zheng Yanyan said: "This is what Zhou Yuwen just bought, a big villa! Uncle, let me tell you, at the housewarming party a few days ago, many notable people from Jinling were there!"

"Did Yuwen buy a villa?" Yang Lijuan was still imagining her son buying a flat, and now it had gone up to a villa?

In a few words, the car had reached the front of a villa with four parking spaces in front, quite enough for parking. During a recent party, there was even a ring of roses at the entrance.

The roses are still in full bloom now.

The three-story small villa, from the outside, looks quite beautiful indeed.

Seeing this small villa, Yang Lijuan was indeed quite delighted. She got out of the car and asked the girls Su Qing and Tao Tian in front: "Is this really our Wenwen's house?"

As Zhou Yuwen's former daughter-in-law, Su Qing was quite familiar with this mother-in-law.

With a smile, she nodded: "Auntie, let me show you around."

The yard was meticulously cared for, with a small pond inside. The green grass there had just been trimmed, and the flowers were blooming quite vigorously. The more Yang Lijuan looked, the more she liked it. As she pushed the door into the cross-hall, she found it clean and tidy, with modern-style décor and luxurious marble walls.

Frankly speaking, Yang Lijuan had never seen such a house in real life, though she had seen it on Korean dramas, like the recently popular "My Love from the Star."

At that time, Yang Lijuan thought when her house got demolished, she would have it remodeled like that, it would look beautiful.

Unexpectedly, before the house was demolished.

Her son had already realized her vision.

The more Yang Lijuan looked, the happier she became, muttering: "Is this really my son's house?"
