Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232

"Yes, yes, yes, being grateful is important. Tang Xin has helped the Su Family so much, the Su Family should indeed do something for him."

Lin Qingfeng nodded repeatedly.

"So, is the Lin Family really not planning to let Lin Xue marry Tang Xin? Let’s discuss this again and make sure there’s no backing out when confronting Tang Xin, otherwise it’ll break his heart."

Su Tianyu confirmed again.

"It’s decided. I am the Family Head of the Lin Family, and what I say is final."

Lin Qingfeng stated his position firmly.

"Okay, then the Su Family will not annul the marriage agreement."

Su Tianyu sighed and got up to leave.

"Heh heh, trying to make the Lin Family take the blame? Not a chance."

After Su Tianyu left, Lin Qingfeng laughed triumphantly.

"Dad, why did you agree to let him annul the marriage agreement?"

Lin Xue ran out of the room, angrily staring at Lin Qingfeng.

"Isn’t this exactly what you wanted?"

Lin Qingfeng looked at Lin Xue with confusion: "My dearest daughter, I have already done something once for the sake of the family’s interests that upset you. This time, I absolutely can’t let you sacrifice yourself to maintain the family’s reputation."

"I said I didn’t want the Lin Family to be dishonest, it was just a reserved remark."

Lin Xue stomped her foot continuously, grit her teeth, and said, "Now that guy has become , I should stay by his side to take care of him, how could you..."

"You really like him, huh?"

Lin Qingfeng looked at Lin Xue dumbfounded, finding women’s thoughts too elusive.

"I’m done talking to you."

Lin Xue was furious, stomped her foot, and stormed into the bedroom, refusing to come out.

"What’s the situation? Did I make the wrong decision?"

Lin Qingfeng scratched his head in confusion, quickly took out his phone, and dialed Grandpa Lin’s number.

"Dad, I need to talk to you about something."

Lin Qingfeng hurriedly recounted what had happened.

"You fool, you’re such an idiot."

After listening, Grandpa Lin cursed angrily.

"Father, did I really make the wrong decision?"

Lin Qingfeng asked with grievance.

"Nonsense! Are you sure Tang Xin’s cultivation is truly ruined? Can you guarantee he won’t recover in the future?"

Grandpa Lin coldly questioned: "And you fell for it, Su Tianyu obviously came to have the Lin Family annul the marriage! Otherwise, why would he personally offer such a good deal to the Lin Family? The Su Family is now the top family, if they truly wanted to break the engagement, who could stop them? Would they need to discuss it with you?"

Lin Qingfeng’s face changed subtly, he hadn’t thought about these issues.

"The most infuriating thing is that you failed to see whether my granddaughter actually likes that guy. Are you stupid?"

Grandpa Lin scolded, gritting his teeth: "They say a father knows his daughter best, but you as a father are truly unfit."

"Then, what should I do now?"

Lin Qingfeng became anxious immediately.

"You are the Family Head of the Lin Family; what’s done is done and can’t be undone. You’ve promised Su Tianyu; what else can you do?"

Grandpa Lin scolded irritably: "Moreover, you’ve already reached an agreement. If you suddenly backtrack when meeting Tang Xin, who knows what kind of mess it will create."

"I just have to leave things as they are?"

Lin Qingfeng also realized he had made a mistake.

"Ugh, Canghai has a close relationship with that guy, you should think about how to explain this to Canghai."

Grandpa Lin sighed helplessly and then hung up the phone.

In the Wu Family’s private room, Wu Dao sat on the sofa leisurely reading the newspaper, keeping up with news from Songlan City, mostly revolving around Tang Ming, Tang Xin, and the Tang Group.

"Dad, are you not worried at all that Tang Xin’s cultivation has been ruined?"

Wu Xiaoyu, dressed in a black casual outfit, looked at Wu Dao with puzzlement.

"Of course I’m worried. Tang Xin is crucial to the Dark Group right now. If he’s truly ruined, the Ming Group’s factions will definitely be restless."

Wu Dao spoke slowly, sighed worriedly.

"This is all you’re worried about?"

Wu Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, "Can’t you be worried about your daughter at all?"

"What is there to worry about?"

Wu Dao looked at Wu Xiaoyu puzzled.

"The Wu Family previously sent me to serve Tang Xin as a maid. Now that Tang Xin is a ruined person, continuing to serve him as a maid would make the family feel shamed, wouldn’t it?"

Wu Xiaoyu frowned at Wu Dao.

"Who said the Wu Family sent you to serve as a maid for Tang Xin? Do you have proof?"

Wu Dao set down the newspaper, smiling at Wu Xiaoyu: "The family’s announcement only stated that you became Tang Xin’s woman, not wife or fiancée. Just the term ’woman’ has many interpretations, such as confidante, close friend, and of course, it could also mean one-night stand or a companion. No matter what, the relationship between you and Tang Xin is undefined, can be annulled at any time, without needing specific explanations."

Wu Xiaoyu looked at Wu Dao incredulously, previously feeling the family’s announcement was too hasty, unexpectedly it held many nuances.

"Silly daughter, your matters with Tang Xin were personally overseen by the old man, he clearly left no loose ends."

Wu Dao chuckled triumphantly: "Now, the ones who should be worried are the Su Family and the Lin Family. Our Wu Family only needs to observe the changes whether Tang Xin’s cultivation is ruined or not—we can easily maneuver."

"Oh, that’s brilliant, really brilliant."

Wu Xiaoyu gave a thumbs-up, having to admire the elder’s wisdom.

"Ugh, I also hope Tang Xin’s cultivation won’t be ruined. After all, he’s a pillar of the Dark Group now. If he’s truly ruined, the Ming Group will definitely seize the chance to retaliate."

Wu Dao sighed, asserting unequivocally: "If possible, go back to his side and observe his situation. I won’t express any opinions this time, understand?"

Wu Xiaoyu nodded without objection.

In the Long Family’s private room, Long Qin held a cup of coffee, sneered: "You wanted to match me with Tang Xin back then; luckily, I didn’t fancy him, otherwise I would have been ruined by you."

"Nobody expected Tang Xin would have his cultivation ruined. If you had really been engaged to him, it would indeed have harmed you."

Long Aiyu nodded, feeling fortunate: "Still, daughter, your insight is far-reaching. Otherwise, the Long Family would be as stuck as the Lin Family and Su Family."

"Naturally. Arrogant and exposing his edge; such a person is unlikely to end well sooner or later."

Long Qin sipped her coffee, mocking scornfully.

"Sister, you’re wrong in saying this. No matter how you look at it, Tang Xin helped us win the showdown, the Long Family benefited greatly. You’re sounding a bit ungrateful now."

Long Ao disapprovingly reprimanded.

"Hmph, I’m just stating facts."

Long Qin snorted, disdainfully said: "You value Tang Xin, that’s your business, don’t drag me into it."
