Chapter 2238 - 720: Going All In on Showing Off_4

A single sentence brought Wang Suxia’s sobbing to an abrupt halt.

She took the tissue, bowing her head in shame, as large tears dripped onto the brand-new tablecloth.

Beside her, Lin Baoshan and Lin Muchuan also silently lowered their eyes, while Peng Xiaomeng barely dared to breathe.

Lin Muxue picked up the wine glass in front of her.

Calmly, she glanced around at the complex expressions on the faces of her relatives.

An intense thrill, like a tidal wave, surged through her body.

Just out of the restroom, Emperor Muxue savored the fruits of her victory without restraint.

Finally, the urgency to urinate was gone.

"Xue!"

"Cousin!"

"Oh, Xue, long time no see!"

The relatives eagerly came up to greet her, each vying to toast her.

Lin Muxue responded gracefully, her smile gentle.

Then, her gaze fell on her cousin Wang Chaohui: "Cousin, I remember you work in renovations, right?"

Wang Chaohui, surprised to be addressed, quickly nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes! I take some renovation work in the city, both small projects and home renovations."

Lin Muxue gently swirled her wine glass and casually said, "That’s great. I just bought a house in Chang’an, a second-hand one, and I want to renovate it. Why don’t I give you the job?"

"Wow! Sure thing! No problem! I guarantee you’ll be satisfied! We’re family after all!" Wang Chaohui said, his face flushed with excitement.

The surrounding relatives instantly perked up, their eyes on Lin Muxue.

Meanwhile, Wang Suxia and Lin Baoshan’s expressions suddenly froze.

She bought a house? Xue bought a house herself?

Back then, they quarreled with their daughter to buy a house for their son.

They exhausted everything, even sacrificing their daughter’s interests, just to barely get a small home for their son in the city.

Now, their daughter went and bought a house in Chang’an without a word.

Lin Muchuan and Peng Xiaomeng’s faces also turned awkward instantly.

Aunt Wang Suyun boomed, "Oh! Xue, when did you buy a house in Chang’an? Such a big thing and you didn’t say a word to the family!"

"Hehe, it’s not that big of a deal. I just signed the contract last month. This time coming back is mainly for the title transfer."

"Oh! That’s truly a great event!"

Cousin Xiang Tong couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked, "Xue, which neighborhood did you buy?"

Lin Muxue smiled, her beautiful eyes sparkling with light, her long legs gently rubbing under the table.

This was the moment she had been waiting for.

Whenever Xue showed off, it always came as a full package, and she wouldn’t wait a day longer.

"Just nearby, at Swan Bay."

As soon as she mentioned those three words, Wang Chaohui exclaimed, "So it’s Swan Bay! That neighborhood is quite good. I’ve done some work there before."

Immediately, several people lowered their heads to check their phones.

Soon, information poured in.

An authentic luxury residential area in Chang’an City, adjacent to subways, commercial districts, surrounded by parks and school districts...

It was enough to make everyone a bit envious.

Aunt Wang Sumei clapped her hands with excitement: "Oh, this is a double celebration! Jiajia’s engagement, and Xue buying a home, our family is truly blessed! After dinner, let’s go over to Xue’s house and have a look, just to know our way around!"

"Yes, yes! Let’s go to see it!" the surrounding relatives immediately agreed.

Lin Muxue looked at the cautiously hopeful eyes of her parents.

Her lips slowly curled up as she nodded.

Wasn’t this why she came back?

Returning with glory, dressing in splendor, and making sure everyone knew that Xue was no longer the same.

After chatting for a while, and dealing with some folks from the Zhao family who came over for pleasantries.

Lin Muxue stood up and said, "The leaders over there are still waiting to discuss work with me. I need to go over for a bit. Once it’s over, I’ll come back to chat with everyone properly."

"Sure, work is important!"

"Go, go, don’t delay the major affairs!"

Wang Suxia opened her mouth, wanting to say something to her daughter, but ultimately, she didn’t speak.

She could only watch her daughter, amidst a sea of farewells, head to the next room, "Chang’an Hall."

...

It was close to two in the afternoon.

The engagement banquet was winding down, and the welcome luncheon in the adjacent hall was also just ending.

Lin Muxue, slightly tipsy, returned to the Peony Hall.

The relatives immediately gathered around, exchanging warm pleasantries.

They were preparing to head to "Swan Bay" for a tour.

Lin Muchuan looked a bit restless, stepping forward and asking, "Xue, how... how are you getting there? Or..."

"Xue, how about taking my car over?" Cousin Xiang Tong enthusiastically offered, car keys in hand.

Jiajia chimed in, "I have space in my car too."

Lin Muxue calmly shook her head: "No need, I’ve already arranged for a vehicle. Everyone just drive over; we’ll meet at the west gate of the neighborhood."

Jiajia quickly said, "Alright. I’ve sent the location of Swan Bay in the group chat, so everyone can just use navigation."

"Got it!"

"Received."

Seeing her parents standing there awkwardly, at a loss for what to do.

Lin Muxue felt her heart soften and finally said, "Brother, you drive and take your wife and Dudu. I’ll take our parents over."

"Alright, alright." Lin Muchuan immediately nodded.

And upon hearing Lin Muxue finally utter the words "Mom and Dad," Wang Suxia’s eyes instantly turned red, and she excitedly grasped her husband’s hand.

A group of more than ten people grandly made their way to the hotel lobby on the first floor.

Just as they stepped out of the revolving door, a middle-aged woman in black uniform, exuding a capable aura, approached.

"Ms. Lin, hello, I am An Ya."

"Hello, An Ya." Lin Muxue nodded.

"Your car is ready, please this way."
