Chapter 12: A Grand Strategy?
Chapter 12 : A Grand Strategy?
After more than ten minutes, Lin Xiaowan finally explained the details of the 200,000 yuan, including the agreement with Su Lin.
Thats the situation, Mom. We agreed not to tell anyone.
After listening, Wang Xiaoqian was somewhat surprised. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy could think so thoroughly. Donating 200,000 doesnt mean much; many big shots in Zhongjiang City donate money every year.
However, donating money without seeking fame and considering the other party completely is either an act of great kindness or great evil.
Xiaowan, is the Su Lin youre talking about Su Zhenguos son?
Lin Xiaowan nodded, Yes, we even had a meal together before. Mom, you havent forgotten right?
How could I forget? I remember that boy staring at you all the time.
Lin Xiaowan blushed instantly, Mom, what are you saying!
Seeing her daughters reaction, Wang Xiaoqian understood. Her daughters heart was beginning to flutter. Xiaowan, whats your opinion of Su Lin?
Lin Xiaowan didnt know that Wang Xiaoqian was now trying to gather more information about Su Lin. After thinking for a while, she frowned, I dont know how to describe Su Lin. He has changed a lot, and I feel my previous impressions of him were completely wrong.
Oh? What did you think of him before?
To sum it up, he treated everyone equally in front but strictly observed class hierarchy behind. He never treated students from families with average conditions politely, never looked at them directly, spoke with an air of superiority, and never paid attention to most classmates. He used to be arrogant and condescending.
And now?
Now I cant say for sure.
Tell me more. Let Mom analyze it for you.
Lin Xiaowan was unguarded and began to talk about what Su Lin had said to her today.
Mom, do you think Su Lin is pitiful? He has contributed so much, but no one recognizes it. Many people laughed at him today, but he remained unaffected. You dont know how nasty those people were talking about him. I dont know how Su Lin has managed to get through these two years.
Wang Xiaoqian glanced at Lin Xiaowan, But now you can come forward to speak up for him.
Its useless if Im the only one speaking up for him.
Just you alone is enough. He doesnt care about others opinions at all; he only cares about yours. Wang Xiaoqian didnt say these words out loud, instead she kept them in her heart.
Suddenly, Wang Xiaoqian felt that she had protected Lin Xiaowan too well over the years. As an experienced person, she could tell that Su Lin was now initiating the pursuit of Lin Xiaowan. First, he changed her daughters impression of him by donating money, then he revealed past events to gain Lin Xiaowans sympathy, plus that agreement binding the two
Sigh, This guy is playing a big game. Looking at her daughters sympathetic expression, Wang Xiaoqian wished she could reveal Su Lins true face to her. But she knew that saying such things would only mess things up.
Although Wang Xiaoqian felt she might be overthinking Su Lin, considering his actions today, this guy couldnt be viewed as an ordinary high school student.
Watching her naive daughter, Wang Xiaoqian sighed inwardly, Fortunately, Su Lins feelings for Xiaowan are genuine. Otherwise, this girl wouldnt even know if shes being taken advantage of.
Another scene flashed in her mind, the dinner she had with Su Lin and Su Zhenguo. She was sure that Su Lins feelings for Lin Xiaowan were sincere.
Mom, do you think theres any way I can help Su Lin?
Wang Xiaoqian touched Lin Xiaowans head and said, Help? How can you help? By telling the truth? Unless you want to make it difficult for Xia Shiyu, otherwise, the rumors will drown the three of you.
Find another way; I dont think Su Lin would necessarily appreciate that.
Ah~!
Xiaowan, dont get involved in this matter. The college entrance exam is approaching, and I believe Su Lin also doesnt want too much attention.
Well alright.
Okay, focus on your homework. Mom wont disturb you anymore.
Okay
Lin Xiaowan quickly got up and closed the door, making sure to lock it. Hearing the locking sound, Wang Xiaoqian was momentarily stunned, then wore a worried expression. Su Lins schemes were too deep; one plot after another. Her daughter was completely outmatched.
She needed to think of a way; otherwise, her daughter might fall into this trap sooner or later.
Su Lin, Im sorry.
Hmm?
What happened, Xiaowan?
Just now, Teacher Wang called home to thank us for donating so much money, and my mom came looking for me. I told her about your donation.
After sending the message, Lin Xiaowan covered her eyes, not daring to look at the screen. After all, she had promised Su Lin not to tell her parents, but as soon as she got home, she spilled the beans.
Hehe, if its said, let it be. Such a big matter, not talking about it with your parents wouldnt be appropriate.
Ah but this way, Teacher Wang might find out too.
Dont worry; even if Teacher Wang knows, he will definitely keep it confidential. But I never thought about keeping Uncle and Aunt in the dark from the beginning. If they dont understand the situation, they wont sleep well at night with such a big thing.
At this moment, in Jiangning Huating Villa District, Su Lins mouth was filled with a smile.
Before letting Lin Xiaowan donate money, he had already considered various situations that might arise. As for Lin Xiaowans parents, he had considered them first and foremost.
To make people respect you, you need to make them acknowledge your abilities.
Although Su Lins family conditions were not bad, compared to Lin Xiaowan, there was still a considerable gap. What he needed to do now was to become familiar with them, showcase his abilities in front of Lin Guoqiang, and let him realize that Su Lin isnt just an ordinary high school student.
Once he demonstrated enough, Lin Guoqiang would find Su Lin quite impressive. Then the resistance to Su Lin being with Lin Xiaowan would be much lighter.
In the original , Su Lin didnt manage to completely win Lin Xiaowan even after more than a thousand chapters. There were various reasons, but a significant one was the resistance from Lins family.
Especially Lin Guoqiang, who was a typical doting father. Gaining his approval was extremely challenging.
Su Lin didnt care about these things; in the original , this guy played it poorly. More than a thousand chapters and was still not able to win over Lin Xiaowan? It was mostly due to the authors problem.
But Su Lin wouldnt make such a mistake. After all, he was a villain, and villains didnt have so many taboos. He acts when it was time to act and wouldnt hesitate when it was time to take action. No dilly-dallying overnight doing nothing; the previous Su Lin wasnt capable of such things.
