Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 311 - 312: Give Money or Relinquish the Pear Garden
Lin Banxia felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen, her head lowered as tears quickly welled up in her eyes.
"Your father said it himself—if you hand over the pear garden, he’ll sever all ties with you as his daughter."
When Lin Banxia heard those words, the tears that had been swirling in her eyes instantly began to fall.
"Of course, if you don’t want to give up the pear garden, there’s another option. Just bring out three hundred million and buy it outright, and we won’t press the issue any further," Cheng Rouyin said, her demands as outrageous as a lion’s roar. Lin Kunhuai had clearly said one hundred million would be enough, but in her hands, the price suddenly became three hundred million.
"Three hundred million?" Lin Banxia’s heart tensed sharply, and she instinctively took two steps back.
"That’s right. This pear garden is worth that much, isn’t it?" Cheng Rouyin cast another greedy look toward the pear garden. In truth, the plot of land wasn’t even in the city’s most central area, and its size wasn’t particularly large. Based on its market valuation, it was only worth a little over one hundred million.
Cheng Rouyin intentionally quoted a higher price to force Lin Banxia into giving up the pear garden.
She was no longer the Huo family’s young mistress; even with her divorce settlement, there was no way she had that kind of money.
Either way, whether it was the land or the money, Lin Banxia had to offer one.
For Cheng Rouyin, neither option would leave her at a disadvantage.
"That’s too much. Can we lower it a bit?" At this moment, Lin Banxia had already accepted the truth that she wasn’t the Lin family’s biological daughter, but she really didn’t want to give up the pear garden. To others, its value lay solely in the land.
To Lin Banxia, however, this place was her home!
It held too many memories and too much emotional meaning.
"Lower it? Lin Banxia, are you joking? This land is absolutely worth this price. If you don’t pay, we’ll take the land and still sell it for a great price," Cheng Rouyin replied with a mocking expression.
"Mom, I don’t think she can afford it. Once we get the pear garden back, let’s sell it directly. This pile of old, broken junk is nauseating just to look at. Why keep it? Might as well shove it all together and burn it down," Lin Shiyi chimed in.
"No!" Lin Banxia stared at Lin Shiyi in horror. "You can’t burn it!"
To be reborn this time was for the sole purpose of protecting the pear garden. Hearing Lin Shiyi suggest setting it ablaze was like her heart being torn apart.
Lin Shiyi curled her lips disdainfully. "Not burn it? Fine, then just give us the money, isn’t that simple? You think anyone really cares about a heap of junk?"
"Fine, I’ll figure out a way to get you the money. Just give me three days!" Lin Banxia had no other options left.
The mother and daughter exchanged a glance, surprised that Lin Banxia was actually planning to raise the exorbitant three hundred million. Could her divorce settlement have been as massive as the rumors online suggested, perhaps amounting to several hundred million? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"Why wait three days? Can’t you give it to us now?" Cheng Rouyin grew excited, her heart racing at the thought of immediately getting three hundred million.
Lin Banxia’s gaze swept over their faces, which resembled ravenous wolves. "I don’t have money right now. I need to borrow it before I can give it to you."
"You don’t have money? Stop lying. Didn’t you get a huge settlement after divorcing Huo Yanting?" Lin Shiyi sneered instantly.
Lin Banxia closed her eyes tightly, unwilling to engage in a discussion about that topic.
"Anyway, I don’t have the money now. Three days later, I’ll give you an answer." Furious and resentful, Lin Banxia turned and walked toward her car. As she opened the car door, she turned back to glare at them. "Until then, do not damage anything in the pear garden. At the very least, it’s still under my name for now."
