Fang Qing slept for a while and was wakened up when the drip she was on finish. The nurse came in to remove the drip needle from her hand.

She rubbed her eyes groggily and acknowledged the nurse leaving the room. Unknowing to her, there was another person in the room.

She appeared demure and elegant in the traditional cheongsam and seemed gentle from the charming smile on her face. She had kept her appearance well, as Fang Qing couldn’t tell of her age judging from her look.

“Hi, you must be Fang Qing. I’m Lin Xiang, Yi’s mother, the daughter of the Ling family. We owned the Ling Group. You were the eldest daughter of the Fang. I’m sure you’ve heard of me.”

Fang Qing smiled shyly and nodded, appearing a little awkward.

This seemed to be a weird occasion to meet his parents.

Fang Qing knew her. She ran the corporation like a raging fire and had eminent authority in the Lin Group. The Lin Group was on equal footing with the Xu Group on their influence in the commerce world.

“Hello, I’m Fang Qing.”

Lin Xiang shot her a deep glance before she gave her a wry smile. “Yi was never in a relationship before this. I agree that you’re beautiful and elegant. But you’re no longer the daughter of the Fang family. So, your identity was rather awkward at this moment. And to be honest, the Fang was not exactly a prominent family.”

Fang Qing smiled sheepishly, feeling embarrassed hearing the insults coming from Xu Yi’s mother.

Lin Xiang had no care of embarrassing others as she took out a blank cheque from her handbag. She handed the piece of a blank cheque to Fang Qing and said, “You may fill up an amount. If I accept the proposed amount, it’s a deal.”

Fang Qing did not take the blank cheque from Mrs. Xu. She politely replied instead, “I cannot accept your money. You’re putting me in a difficult position. You can ask Xu Yi to discuss this with me. I’ll accept anything he proposed.”

Lin Xiang raised her eyebrows and smiled. Was she playing hard to get?

Very well. She met many women who thought too highly of themselves.

She thought she would get more from Yi. She had obviously overestimated herself.

“I know my son. None of the women he dated last more than a week. He dated most of them to entertain his grandfather. When he got bored with them, he would pay them off. I can tell you that he won’t be paying you as much as I do. You won’t be able to see much of him, either. He’s a busy man.”

Lin Xiang was familiar with dealing with such situations. In fact, it was rare for her to be dealing with such a situation. But a stupid woman like Fang Qing was an effortless task.

Fang Qing was a little lost.

“Then why don’t you save yourself some money? There’s no need for you to go through these troubles as well.”

Fang Qing felt her face hardened from the smile she had been putting on since she noticed Lin Xiang in the room. This atmosphere was making her very uncomfortable.

Lin Xiang’s expression turned glacial.

“Because you are illegitimate. You almost got married. Then, your family disowned you. Your reputation will drag Yi through the mud. Else, what makes you think that I’m willing to meddle in these trivial matters?”

Fang Qing bit her lips and looked away. She whispered, “I’m not married. The marriage certificate is fake.”

“I know. But this is not acceptable for the Xu.”

Lin Xiang shoved the cheque into Fang Qing’s hand, but Fang Qing pulled back her hand in protest. Lin Xiang increased her force and tried to slip the cheque into Fang Qing’s hand insistently.

“Take it, be sensible, and leave him. I can also solve your brother’s problem for you. You have nothing to lose.”

“I…”

Fang Qing’s eyes twitched. She was hesitant to accept the blank cheque from Lin Xiang.

She was indeed afraid that there would be no turning back once she made the wrong decision.

Lin Xiang noticed the change in Fang Qing’s expression and immediately stopped. She gently patted her hand and gave her a warm smile. “My words might have made you uncomfortable. But I don’t mean any harm.”

A clanging sound suddenly came from the door.

Startled, Lin Xiang turned around to see his son standing at the door.

She quickly got up and pretended to be calm. “Why are you here? Aren’t you visiting your grandpa?”

“What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to see Miss Fang. There’s…”

“Mom, you need to give up on your plans for my marriage. I’m going to marry Fang Qing. That’s for sure. Stay out of this matter, or things are going to turn ugly.”

Xu Yi’s decisive words hurt Lin Xiang.

She looked at her son in disbelief and tried to coax him. “What has the basta*d done to you? Don’t you know her current status? How could you marry her with no serious thought? Do you think marriage is a child’s play?”

“Dad was a nobody when you married him. If I remember correctly, not only was he a nobody, but he was also buried in debts that he was almost locked up for it.”

“Xu Yi!”

Lin Xiang never thought that he would talk back to her with this matter to support his action.

“I did this for your own good. He’s your father. How can you say things like that about him?”

Lin Xiang was so furious that her entire body was trembling. All her efforts were in vain.

Why did she have to go through this?
