My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: Mrs. Lin Goes Alone

As the two conversed, Su Xiansui, dressed in a white lotus leaf off-shoulder top and a water-blue openwork mermaid skirt, elegantly approached.

She had been scolded by Lin Zhiya last time and was still somewhat scared upon seeing her, softly calling out, "Mrs. Lin."

Then she raised her head, hesitating to say to Lin Teng, "Aunt, grandma asked me to tell you she’s greeting guests upfront and can’t come to the back. If..."

She quickly glanced over at Lin Zhiya’s direction, bit her lip, gathered courage, and repeated the message from Old Madam Lin, "If Mrs. Lin is waiting outside alone, she can come over; if there are others, then forget it."

She feared Lin Zhiya would be upset, and hastened to wave her hands and explain, "It’s not me, it’s grandma who said this."

Lin Teng didn’t expect Old Madam to have Su Xiansui convey such a message; his mature face showed a hint of embarrassment. He awkwardly touched his nose and stood up, trying to lighten the mood jokingly, "Mom really, Zhiya, wait here for me, I’ll go talk to mom."

After hearing from Su Xiansui the wishes of the old lady, Lin Zhiya’s smile faded. She pursed her lips and stopped Lin Teng, "Brother, no need."

"Since mom is busy, I won’t trouble the family today. I’ve prepared a gift for mom; please pass it to her."

She took out a small velvet box from her handbag and firmly placed it in Lin Teng’s hands, "Inside is a jade Buddha from Ciyuan Hall, it’s been consecrated."

Lin Teng felt uneasy, the small box in his hand felt as heavy as thousands of pounds, weighing heavily on his heart. His throat was dry as he looked at Lin Zhiya, "Zhiya, it’s been a long time since you’ve been home, take this rare chance to have a meal before you go."

Lin Zhiya, holding Rong Yan’s hand, was very firm, "No, Rong Yan and I will go home to eat."

The same ’home’, but the homes of Lin Teng and Lin Zhiya mentioned one after the other were two different places.

Bitterness filled Lin Teng’s mouth, he shifted his hopes to the well-behaved little boy beside him. He bent down, softly coaxing the pretty little baby, "Duidui, are you hungry? How about Uncle takes you to have something delicious?"

Lin Zhiya frowned and angrily called out to him, "Brother!"

She had specifically brought Rong Yan here for the family to acknowledge Rong Yan’s status; otherwise, she would not have come at all. She had already lowered her stance as if begging, and yet they still took a high and mighty attitude, not willing to see Rong Yan. She was not going to stay!

Lin Teng asking Little Baby was clearly being dishonest!

Lin Teng knew his behavior was disgraceful, but he still hoped for a family meal together. He bent down, his mature face showing a kind smile, gently looking at the tender little boy, he reached out, "Duidui, why don’t you come with uncle? Your grandmother is having a birthday and really wants to see you."

Lin Zhiya’s anger was uncontrollable, her face covered with a layer of frost, about to burst out in rage.

Then a childish voice rejected, "No!"

Lin Teng was stunned, "..."

"Why?"

Little Baby naturally said, "Because my mom isn’t going, if mom doesn’t go, I’m not going, I want to stay with mom!"

Rong Yan’s feelings were complex, clutching her hand tightly.

Hearing this, Lin Teng felt playful and whispered, "But uncle’s and grandma’s home have a lot of delicious food and fun things. Duidui, you could play at uncle’s house for a while, and then uncle will take you back home, okay?"

Li Duidui remained unmoved, his snow-white tender little face showing indifference as if he had no interest in what was being said, holding Rong Yan’s hand, "I also have them at my home, and at grandma’s house!"
