Looking at Lin Xinyu's departing figure, Lin Xin thought, 'Lin Shuhao must have fought with him. Next time he wants to start with my brother, it'll be harder to get close to me.'
She had always been well aware of Lin Xinyu's purpose. Seeing that she ignored him, he approached her relatives. Cutting him off at once, there was nothing he could do. If he really thought of her as a stand-in, she hoped he wouldn't bother her after this.
Lin Shuhao didn't want to frighten Lin Xin, so he did not tell her the details of what happened in the study. He let her and Wang Changding go out to have fun, telling them to come back early.
After his short stint at the hospital, Wang Changding was also looking for Lin Xin to spend some time. He visited her this early in the morning, on a spur of the moment with no activities planned. When he got out of the door, he saw Lin Xin's long hair and asked casually, "Do you want to do your hair?"
Lin Xin was satisfied with her shiny black hair. "No, why don't we go and see the wedding dress?" she said. "In two days, our parents will meet and set the official date for our wedding."
Wang Changding did not expect her to be so straightforward. He also wanted to marry her as soon as possible. He drove her to the Bridalwear shop to look for a wedding dress. Lin Xin wasn't picky about such things at all. She asked for Wang Changding's opinion and chose three sets of wedding dresses to try on.
A princess dress - short in the front and long in the back, a floor-length dress with handsewn jewels, and a fishtail cheongsam (a close-fitting dress with a high neck and slit skirt).
Putting on the first wedding dress, she came out to let Wang Changding see how it looked, but there was no sign of him. What was even weirder was that the staff was not around either. She called out twice but no one answered her. Just as she was trying to look around for someone, a woman walked inside.
The woman looked about 30 years old. She had fair skin, a thin figure, and a pretty face. With a graceful smile she said, "Hello, my name is Ning Xinyue. I'm Wang Changding's ex-girlfriend."
Lin Xin had a bad feeling about this. She asked, "Ex-girlfriend? Then, shouldn't you be looking for Wang Changding? Why come here?"
Ning Xinyue said, "He and I were classmates in college and, because his family opposed, we broke up. We met some time ago, and we're still in love with each other." She opened her cell phone and held it for Lin Xin to see.
Half-naked bed photos, intimate selfies, and some short videos. Looking at the time they were taken, that is, during the period when Wang Changding was very busy. To people, Wang Changding was a modest and dignified person. In those videos, he looked like a big boy. Thinking about how they'd only held hands, Lin Xin's heart was dealt a blow.
Lin Xin quietly looked at Ning Xinyue for a while and asked, "Then you should still look for him. What did you want me for?"
Ning Xinyue withdrew her cell phone and said, "We had a fight. His parents forced him to marry you."
Lin Xin said, "You should have still looked for him."
Ning Xinyue shook her head. "The day before yesterday, he wanted to break up with me. We had a fight, and then I heard he asked you to marry him. Miss Lin, we are in love with each other. Please let him go."
When Lin Xin heard the phrase 'We are in love', she felt like eating a fly. It was more disgusting than seeing an intimate picture of Wang Changding and her.
Lin Xin suppressed her anger and calmly said, "You are in love with him. Shouldn't you go after him? What do you want from me? I don't know about you. I'm a victim, too. You should call him, not me, about whether he and I will marry or not. You said you and he were in true love, please show me 'true love' first. Don't let him mess with me." Having said all that in a single breath, Lin Xin's blood soared to her head. Sitting in a chair, she gasped for air.
Ning Xinyue wanted to say something else but Lin Xin said, "The door is over there. Goodbye, I won't be seeing you out."
Seeing her pale face, she decided it's better, to some extent, since she's in poor health. It was inconvenient to say more and she was ready to leave. But when she came to the door, she turned back and said, "Changding doesn't know I came to you, please do not tell him."
Lin Xin wanted to hit her with something, who are these people!
As soon as Ning Xinyue left, Wang Changding came back. Seeing that Lin Xin looked pale, he approached and asked with concern, "Where is it uncomfortable?" His hand rested on Lin Xin's shoulder.
The wedding dress was sleeveless, and his hand slipped gently on her shoulder.
Lin Xin coldly said, "Don't touch me."
