Chapter 213: Face, Taking the initiative to enter the door
When Lin Xiang heard Housekeeper Caoâs words, his face become green and he got angry: âThat evil girl!â
Lin Xiang shouted, but who knows who was the person he referred to as the evil girl.
However, Housekeeper Cao thinks that he was more likely referring to their w.a.n.gfei. Although Lin Wantingâs action was wrong, their w.a.n.gfeiâs words were very harsh.
In anger, Lin Xiang couldnât sit still and hurriedly go to the Xiao w.a.n.gfu with Housekeeper Cao. If Xiao w.a.n.gfu dared to humiliate their family, he will never let them go!

Lin Wanting didnât know that Lin Chujiu invited Lin Xiang. She just kept yelling and yelling to the maidservant next to her. The reason was: Lin Chujiu refused to see her, and she was not allowed to meet Xiao Tianyao.
Lin Wantingâs anger quickly explode. She wanted to use this opportunity to push Lin Chujiu to her death, not to stay in this room like a prisoner. She wanted to replace Lin Chujiu and become Xiao w.a.n.gfei. Just like how her mother replace her aunt, and become Lin Furen.
But, she didnât get this opportunity. When she entered Xiao w.a.n.gfu, she was taken immediately to this small courtyard. There were four guardsmen outside the door. She had an absolute freedom inside the room, but she couldnât get out.
âI want to see your w.a.n.gfei, didnât you hear me? I am your w.a.n.gfeiâs sister. She wonât stop me!â Lin Wanting disregard her image and just shouted.
These sentences were repeated by her for more than ten times. But, the maidservants inside simply ignored her.
âIf your w.a.n.gfei doesnât want to see me, then Iâll go and see Xiao w.a.n.gye, okay? Xiao w.a.n.gye is my brother-in-law. Thereâs nothing wrong in seeing him.â
Lin Wanting glared at the maidservant in front of her and raised her hand to throw a slap over her face. But, when her palm was about to get close, the maidservant ducked. Lin Wanting took this opportunity to rushed outside, but the maidservant stopped her once again and stand in front of her.
âMiss Lin, please show a little respect. Our w.a.n.gye and w.a.n.gfei said that they canât see you right now.â The maidservant stopped Lin Wanting and repeated the words, she had said countless times.
After being stopped here and there for several times, Lin Wanting felt tired: âYou ⦠⦠Donât you know the meaning of hospitality? I come as a guest. I am a guest! But, your w.a.n.gfei only sent a few maidservants to see me?â
The maidservant stayed motionless and firmly stand in front of her. Lin Wanting was so angry to the point she burst into tears. She cried and cried, but still, no one came to see her. She felt wronged and sad, so she turned and cried in the bed instead.
When Lin Xiang came in with Housekeeper Cao. He saw his daughter crying out with almost no breath. Seeing this, his eyes flashed with thoughts: The truth is not important. The current situation is in his favor.
In just one glance, it can be seen that Xiao w.a.n.gfu bullied his daughter.
âWhat is this all about?â Lin Xiang immediately asked Housekeeper Cao.
When Lin Wanting heard Lin Xiangâs voice, she trembled and struggled to climb up in the bed. She looked at Lin Xiang with teary eyes and said: âFather⦠⦠you finally came.â
The brokenhearted Lin Wanting then flew to Lin Xiangâs arms: âFather, Iâm so scared. Take me home please, they, they⦠â¦â
Lin Wanting pointed her finger to the maidservant, whoâs standing like a wood in the corner. Her face looks terrible as if she was tortured by her and she was frightened.
Lin Xiang patted Lin Wantingâs back and comforted her: âWanting, donât be scared. Father is here for you.â
âFather, Wanting is so scared.â Lin Wanting stopped crying, but she still accused the people around her. Housekeeper Caoâs lips twitched in seeing this.
He finally understood why their w.a.n.gfei was not an opponent of this young lady. Their w.a.n.gfei has a biased father, plus she has a sister who was accustomed to acting weak. So, how will their w.a.n.gfei win?
Lin Xiang didnât ask immediately what happened to her and the maidservant. He only asked after she had calmed down: âWanting, tell father, what happened?â
âFather, I⦠I⦠I listened to motherâs words and came to see sister. But, but.. ⦠Father, Iâm okay, letâs just go back. This is Xiao w.a.n.gfu. We, we⦠⦠sister only lives here.â Lin Wantingâs words were not clear, it can easily misunderstand.
This method was really powerful. It can help Lin Xiang to fight back. Housekeeper Caoâs eyes flashed with worry. He knows he had to hurry to explain, but he didnât get a chance.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Wanting finished, Lin Xiang anxiously shouted in anger: âWhat if it is Xiao w.a.n.gfu? Xiao w.a.n.gfu canât bully my daughter. Wanting, donât be afraid. Father wonât let anyone bully you.â
Lin Xiang asked a few questions. But, Lin Wanting only showed a more pitiful face. She didnât mention even half of her words from earlier. She only said that she came looking for Lin Chujiu because Lin Furen ordered her to do so.
After turning around, Lin Xiang looked at Housekeeper Cao and accused him in anger: âHousekeeper Cao, Xiao w.a.n.gfu must give an explanation for this. I, Prime Minister Lin didnât raise my daughter, just to be bullied.â
Lin Xiang also swept his cold eyes toward a few maidservants in the corner, as if he was ready to eat them alive.
No matter what his daughter actually feels about Xiao w.a.n.gye. Lin Chujiu shouldnât say anything so ugly. This account must be discussed today.
Heâll let them know that itâs not easy to put a dirt on his head.
Housekeeper Cao didnât feel shy, he generously said: âPrime Minister Lin, we donât know what is the truth yet in this matter. We havenât asked the maidservants. Canât you listen to a one or two of their words? I think it is better to also ask a few questions to them to know the truth.â
âDo you think these maidservants will talk about Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs evil doings? How do you expect me to believe their words?â Lin Xiang didnât want to hear the truth. He only wanted to grasp this chance and get some benefits.
Housekeeper Cao learned that Lin Xiang was not a reasonable person. He only came to play. So, Housekeeper Cao couldnât help but sneer: âI donât know what is Prime Minister Lin was talking about. I only hope Prime Minister can take back Miss Lin. As for the other issues, our w.a.n.gfei will talk about it to you later.â He was only a servant, so even if he was angry, he didnât dare to speak ill to Lin Xiang.
âRest a.s.sured, I am, of course, will take back my daughter. Otherwise, she will continue to be bullied by you, Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs people!â Lin Xiang said as if he was standing to the highest peak of morality. He accused Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs people without hesitation.
Housekeeper Cao couldnât help but laughed. He doesnât believe Lin Wantingâs words. He believes Lin Wanting was stopped by the maidservants, so she didnât see their w.a.n.gye and w.a.n.gfei. However, he doesnât have any evidence, so he can only let Lin Xiang put his finger under their nose.
Lin Xiang knew that Lin Wantingâs actions were wrong and unreasonable. But, because of Lin Wantingâs words, he barely makes the upper wind. However, he also no longer wanted to delve into this matter. He swayed his sleeves, after taking Lin Wantingâs arm and ready himself to leave. But the next moment, Lin Chujiuâs maidservant, Qiuxi, came rus.h.i.+ng and stopped at the door.
âThis slave came to see Prime Minister Lin. Itâs good Prime Minister havenât left yet. This slave thought sheâll fail to catch up.â Qiuxi said gracious sounding greetings, then added: âThis slave is a female servant under w.a.n.gfei. This slave came to deliver w.a.n.gfeiâs message to Prime Minister Lin.â
Lin Xiang didnât need to think much about it. Lin Chujiuâs message was definitely not a good thing. From what he heard to Housekeeper Cao earlier, he no longer has any interest to hear this one. However, Quixi was not asking for permission, she directly said: âw.a.n.gfei told this slave to tell Prime Minister: Taking the initiative to enter someone else door is a big disgrace, donât blame Xiao w.a.n.gfu for being a bully.â
âXiao w.a.n.gfuâs people are big bullies!â Lin Xiangâs face bloated with the same color of a pigâs liver. On the other hand, Housekeeper Cao was very calm and stayed silent. But, in his mind, he thought: Our w.a.n.gfei is really fierce!
