Can't Let Go novel Chapter 74

  Linda Yun looked at the fifty-million-yuan check with the corners of her mouth upward involuntarily, "mom, that’s generous of you. Fifty million, I haven’t seen so much money for my whole life!"

  "Hah, with Mary’s beautiful look, how long do you think you can be close to him? With bad temperament and frumpy appearance, you are just a shame to stay with him. Of course, I know my son is very charming. Many women want to stay with him without money, but Linda Yun..."

  She was ironic on smiling, "you are different from those debutantes. You are a woman good at capturing his heart. Don’t you like money?"

  Linda Yun smiled and reached for the check, "mother, only you know what I want! The money is a great temptation to me!"

  At the sight of this, the smile of Qu Zhirong looked even more scornful.

  "These fifty million yuan is enough for you to have a carefree life. Take the money and get out of here away. Don’t let me see you again!"

  Linda Yun stared at the check and smiled more brightly, "fifty million...fifty million... ordinary people can’t make so much money for two lifetimes."

  Qu Zhirong sneered and her eyes were full of disdain.

  Disdainful to her provincial and poor look.

  But she stared at the check and smiled, "I don’t want to divorce now, so..."

  She bent down and pushed the check back.

  "What?"

  "I say, I don’t want to divorce yet." She stared at the check and knitted her brows to reveal her painful facial expression, "but if mother is willing to give five hundred million, then I can consider divorce!"

  Five hundred million?

  Qu Zhirong was mad.

  "Just you, fifty thousand is over-paid, how dare you ask for five hundred million?"

  "It seems mother doesn’t really like Mary Yun, either. Otherwise, how can she be unwilling to spend the money? Moreover, if the title of Mrs. Huo is worth too little, my husband’s face will be lost, right?" She smiled with a harmless look.

  Qu Zhirong was so angry and banged the table. She stood up, "what do you think you are? On your knees!"

  Linda Yun’s perfunctory smile gradually disappeared but she didn’t move.

  "Mrs. Zhang, take the feather duster!"

  She wanted to be her daughter-in-law, didn’t she?

  Well, she would give a good lesson about what daughter-in-law was and what mother-in-law was!

  Mrs. Zhang took the feather duster hesitantly, "madame, the lady has just recovered, maybe..."

  Qu Zhirong didn’t let her finish. She took the feather duster with cool eyes staring at her, "do you want to be my daughter-in-law? Well, very well. Now I will teach you what our family’s rules are!"

  The words fell and she took the feather duster and was about to hit her.

  "Mother!" A shout stopped Qu Zhirong’s hand which was close to Linda Yun.

  The man strode over and at the next second held Qu Zhirong, while saying with a smile, "why do you take Mrs. Zhang’s prop? Are you going to clean the room?"

  Qu Zhirong was unhappy and moved her body to get rid of her son.

  "You can’t even do this kind of job well and just let Mrs. Zhang do it." Michael Huo said and took the prop to Mrs. Zhang, "put it away, how could a lady do cleaning?"

  Mrs. Zhang nodded hastily, "OK, Master."

  "Alas, alas!" Qu Zhirong was unpleasant.

  "Fine, let’s have breakfast." The man smiled and pressed Qu Zhirong down. He signaled to kitchen to serve breakfast.

  The next second, he came up to Linda Yun, held her hands and took her beside him, "why do you get up so early?"

  "It’s time for school." Her answer was dull.

  "Well, I’ll drive you there in a while." He smiled and didn’t mind her indifference.

  Such a smile made Qu Zhirong unpleasant, "Mary has gone home!"

  Michael Huo answered, "it’s high time that she went home."

  "What do you mean it’s time for her to go home? Someone should go home. The person who shouldn’t have gone has gone and the person that shouldn’t stay has stayed." Qu Zhirong stabbed the food with knife and folk, making unpleasant sound.

  "Well, it’s time for us to go home. After school, I’ll pick you up and visit your home tonight." He picked a poached egg up and put it in her bowl.

  Linda Yun just dodged with lips upturned, "fine!"

  However, it was time for her to go back and have a look.

  "Fei," suddenly, Qu Zhirong saw Jennifer Huo who carried a bag on her back, and said, "come and have your breakfast."

  Jennifer Huo was vexed and hummed, "I won’t eat any. I’ll go to school."

  She said and went to the doorway, but happened to meet David Huo who was doing morning exercise, "dad."

  "You are going to school so early?" David Huo looked at his daughter and felt she was abnormal these two days.

  Linda Yun immediately put down her knife and fork, "you guys take your time eating and I’ll go to school."

  She said, and immediately took the schoolbag up and wanted to leave.

  Michael Huo pressed her schoolbag, "leave after eating and I’ll take you to school."

  Linda Yun broke away from his hand harder with knitted brows, "no, I’ll go with Fei.

  The words fell, and she left quickly without any reluctance.

  As soon as Jennifer Huo got in the car and was ready to close the car door, Linda Yun flashed in.

  "Hey, what are you doing?"

  "I want to go together with you."

  Jennifer Huo was unpleasant, "nobody wants to go with you. Get off!"

  "Driver, let’s go!"

  The driver heard the words and said, "OK, your ladyship."

  "Hey, stop calling me like that. Hey, do I permit you to drive? Stop!" Jennifer Huo yelled.

  However, the driver still drove the car no matter how loudly she yelled.

  -

  As soon as Jennifer Huo got off, she fled quickly as if Linda Yun was a malignant tumor.

  Linda Yun didn’t care. She simply had a few words with the driver and then carried the schoolbag while going to the classroom.

  "See, that’s the another misses of Yun’s family."

  "What’s miss of the Yun’s. She is Mrs. Huo now."

  "Sh, how can a bitch like her be called Mrs. Huo. Who knows how she gets the title."

  "Hush, keep it down, don’t let her hear..."

  There came more and more opinions from around with her appearance.

  As soon as the girls in three and fours saw her, they went far away at once.

  That was more exaggerating than avoiding the bird flu.

  Linda Yun pretended she hadn’t seen and walked directly to her own classroom.

  The most important thing for her now was to improve grades. The graduation was coming and there were a lot of things that she needed to do.

  However, as soon as she stepped into the classroom, the laughing classmates immediately became silent.

  Linda Yun was still calm and just sat down at her desk. She took the book up and read.

  "Hey, how shameless you are to have stolen your sister’s husband. How dare you come to have classes?" One curly-haired girl came over and suddenly banged on her desk, making the sound of Bang!

  Linda Yun looked up at her.

  "If I had such a sister like you, I would have choked you." The curly-haired girl extended her middle figure with scornful expression.

  "Right, how dare you come to have classes? What have you done to Mary?" Another girl with short hair also came.

  These two girls had been followers of Mary Yun normally and neither of them liked her.

  "We are asking you. Are you dumb? Where is Mary?" Mu Xiaoxiao hastened to ask angrily.

  Linda Yun just smiled faintly and said nothing.

  "What are you laughing at?" This laughter was too ironic and made her feel unpleasant.

  Other classmates looked over here as if there were an interesting show.

  "You are the followers of her. You must know it if she is not having classes here."

  "What?" The curly-haired girl was very angry, "who are the flunkies you refer to. You’re nobody. If it were not for Mary, how could you stay in Austral City? I think you are the bitch that made your mother die from anger."

  "Right!" The girl with short hair echoed immediately.

  Other classmates all sat in their own seats and didn’t say a word.

  All of them were powerful. Most people chose to shut up even though they weren’t unhappy about her.

  But these two ladies were different. On the one hand, both of them had a wealthy family.

  On the other hand, they had been getting on well with Mary Yun.

  Nowadays, they saw she had turned over the table. How could they tolerate it!

  Linda Yun said nothing, stood up, and said with a smile, "what were you saying just now. I didn’t hear it clearly since you were too far."

  The curly-haired girl immediately held the desk with hands and approached her. She scoffed, "I say your mother is dead..."

  Bang, a big slap fell on her face.

  "Ouch, it hurts..." Looking at her palm, Linda Yun’s brows were knitted. She griped, "your skin is really thick. It has hurt my hand!"

  "How could you!"

  "Hush!" Linda Yun put her figures on her lips and sneered, "be quiet. If your words have been heard by my husband, I’m afraid he will be unhappy!"

  The curly-haired girl was suddenly stunned.

  At this time, Linda Yun looked at all classmates, and said with a light smile, "I know none of you like me. But it doesn’t matter. I’m not money. There is no need for me to get everyone’s love. But I have to remind you that now I’m the wife of Michael Huo. I think everyone here has heard about my husband’s temper. It doesn’t matter what you talk about me. I’m just afraid if the words concerned with you are heard by him, that’s not good, right?"

  Everyone looked at each other with brows knitted.

  What an insinuating remark that was!

  "You..."

  "Don’t say!" The moment the curly-haired girl was about to say something, the girl with short hair immediately stopped her and shook her head.

  "I’ll see how long you can be proud." The curly-haired girl left one sentence with hateful tone and went back to seat.

  Other classmates’ eyes were complex and weird.

  It was the same face. Why was Mary Yun so gentle?

  But this woman was so cruel and arrogant?

  Although everyone was unhappy.

  After this, there was no one who dared to say anything bad in her face.

  After school, the classmates were gone quickly like birds released from the cage.

  Linda Yun crammed the study content she had missed recently and got some missed examination papers from the teachers. After she finished, there was no one in the class.

  Just at this moment, her phone rang.

  "I’ll come soon and wait for me at the school gate!"

  The sender was Michael Huo.

  Linda Yun packed up, took her bag and left.

  After she was at the gateway, there was a black Lincoln.

  "Tik tik..."

  There came a horn honking with her appearance.

  Linda Yun looked at a glance and walked towards the car without thinking too much.

  She wasn’t used to staying with him and took the initiative to sit at the copilot’s seat.

  "We can go!" She said calmly and put the bag on her thigh without turning back and casting a glance at him.

  "Nian..."

  There suddenly came a familiar and strange call behind her...
