Chapter 108: Will Not Divorce

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Will Not Divorce

Seo Zhenzhen had no time to greet anyone before Lin Yu gave her a direct rebuttal. Biting her lip and with her face turning somewhat pale, she said, "I’m sorry, Auntie, I didn’t want to come here. I just had reasons I couldn’t avoid."

"Seo Zhenzhen, I hear you pulled off quite a trick, enjoying yourself at the He family’s place these days." Lin Yu asked sharply. In this room, her status was the highest; she could say whatever she wanted, and no one could suppress her.

Seo Zhenzhen bowed her head, "I’m sorry."

"Ah Lin is already married—please have some self-respect," Lin Yu said coldly. Her manner, born of a life of privilege and honor, made this short sentence enough to express clearly her dislike for Seo Zhenzhen, even contempt.

Seo Zhenzhen’s lips trembled, and after struggling for a few seconds, she said, "Auntie, I didn’t intentionally come here. I just wanted to beg Zhiwei to let my sister go. She’s willing to take the responsibility for the mistakes she’s made, and I’m willing to bear it on her behalf, I solely ask that Zhiwei could spare her."

"Miss Seo’s words seem to suggest as if it was Zhiwei who’s been bullying your sister."

"I didn’t mean..."

"Also, stop with the talk of serving jail time in place of your sister right from the start. You know full well, no one would let you go to jail for Bai Zhuzhu; the public opinion is something no one can afford to shoulder," Lin Yu laid bare Seo Zhenzhen’s intentions in a torrent of words.

If Seo Zhenzhen really took Bai Zhuzhu’s place in jail, the one to be scolded wouldn’t be Bai Zhuzhu; it would be Cheng Zhiwei and the entire Zhou Family.

"That’s not what Zhenzhen means," Zhou Lin said, defending Seo Zhenzhen in a soft voice under Lin Yu’s displeased gaze.

"Shut up," Lin Yu rebuked sharply.

"Auntie, I really..."

"Miss Seo, by rights, as Bai Zhuzhu’s elder sister, considering the great harm Zhuzhu has inflicted on Zhiwei, it would only be right for us to sue you for compensation; you’d have to accept it. More seriously, you as the elder sister should be kneeling down to apologize," Lin Yu said coldly and bluntly.

"Mom." Zhou Lin tried to speak but was silenced again by a look from Lin Yu.

"I didn’t ask for your money, nor for your apology," Lin Yu continued, "The leniency I’m showing is for that time you couldn’t stand up for Zhou Lin. Miss Seo, don’t be ungrateful."

These words were harsh.

Seo Zhenzhen’s fingers trembled as they clenched the handle of the wheelchair.

All Zhou Lin showed was compassion.

"Zhiwei just came back from the hospital, in a bad state both mentally and physically. Miss Seo, you didn’t let her rest, deliberately waiting here to beg for this and that. Such a selfish act borders on being poorly raised," Lin Yu already had a belly full of grievances against Seo Zhenzhen and now they all came spilling out.

Seo Zhenzhen’s face reddened, and facing Lin Yu, she could only stammer her explanations, lacking any semblance of the aggression she had towards Cheng Zhiwei.

After speaking her piece, Lin Yu had Wang Mei take Cheng Zhiwei to her room to rest.

Only after Cheng Zhiwei had left did Lin Yu walk over to Seo Zhenzhen, looking down at her from on high, "Miss Seo, affection and guilt are consumables. You’d best use them sparingly, Miss Seo. Now, if you’d leave."

With things having reached this point and Cheng Zhiwei already gone, Seo Zhenzhen could no longer stay. She said softly, "Goodbye, Auntie," and began to wheel herself out.

Zhou Lin immediately went to push her.

"Ah Lin, it’s enough to help her to the car," Lin Yu commanded coldly and indifferently, "I need to talk to you."

By the car, Seo Zhenzhen, who had been holding back her tears, finally let them fall, yet still managed to muster a brave smile, "Ah Lin, I’m truly sorry for causing you to be scolded by your mother."

Zhou Lin’s expression was complex, "I told you before, this isn’t the right time to seek out Cheng Zhiwei. You didn’t listen."

With her gaze lowered, Seo Zhenzhen choked up, "I’m just worried about Zhuzhu. I just want her to return safely to my side."

"Zhenzhen, you’ve been good enough to her. It’s not your fault that she hasn’t learned her lesson. You should let her face the consequences; only then will she learn. Moreover, this incident has blown up too big. If she doesn’t pay the price for her actions, my mother won’t spare even you," Zhou Lin had his own considerations.

Bai Zhuzhu learned her lesson, had her temper tempered.

At the same time, Seo Zhenzhen could also gain a certain degree of stability.

Choking back sobs, Seo Zhenzhen sighed softly, "I understand it all."

Zhou Lin hugged her into the car, and also instructed the driver to take good care of her before he whispered to comfort her, "Zhuzhu won’t suffer in there, you can rest assured."

"Okay, thank you, Ah Lin," Seo Zhenzhen said, turning teary laughter into smiles, waving goodbye to Zhou Lin, "You should go back, don’t upset Auntie."

Once the car left, Zhou Lin turned to go inside.

Wang Mei was waiting by the door and spoke softly, "Madam is in the study."

Zhou Lin nodded and went upstairs to the study.

In the study, Lin Yu was casually flipping through files and when Zhou Lin came in, she spoke indifferently, "Zhou Lin, you need to give me an explanation about Seo Zhenzhen’s situation."

After a moment of silence, Zhou Lin said, "I’ve already hired the treatment team for her in the country, she will be receiving treatment here from now on."

Lin Yu laughed coldly, "Zhou Lin, you really do things more and more recklessly."

"Mom, I’m not at ease with Zhenzhen being abroad alone."

"She has been abroad for three years, and you’re just now worried?" Lin Yu stared at him, her gaze sharp, "Have you thought about how unfair this is to Zhiwei?"

Zhou Lin fell silent again.

"Three years ago, when you and Zhiwei got into bed and the news broke, your father pressured you to marry Zhiwei, and I did ask you privately. If you were unwilling, I would have talked to your father, but back then you said you agreed."

Lin Yu knew such marriages were mostly unhappy, so she had asked Zhou Lin, if he was unwilling, she would respect his opinion and would also provide Cheng Zhiwei with enough compensation.

But to her surprise, Zhou Lin agreed.

It was for this reason that she thought Zhou Lin had feelings for Cheng Zhiwei.

Honestly, not only Lin Yu, but Cheng Zhiwei herself thought so at the time.

Zhou Lin gave everyone the wrong impression.

Lin Yu’s fingers tapped the table, "I’ve told you before, if you don’t like Zhiwei or can’t treat her like a wife, then get a divorce."

Even she felt that this marriage really didn’t need to continue.

Cheng Zhiwei was someone she had watched grow up and was also dear to her.

Zhou Lin was silent for a long time before he suddenly said, "I will not divorce."

He still refused to give in to the idea of divorce.

Lin Yu was taken aback, then frowned, unable to understand Zhou Lin’s intentions, "Give me a reason. I don’t think you’ll treat her as a wife, you can’t even be a normal, ordinary person."

He would only hate her.

In that case, it would be better to get a divorce.

Zhou Lin didn’t know what he was thinking, his deep eyes held a trace of inscrutability, providing no reason, just massaging his temples, "I’ll talk to Cheng Zhiwei about this."

Lin Yu found herself at a loss for words. After several minutes, her tone softened at last, "Ah Lin, a divorce would be the best for both you and Zhiwei."
