Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 46: Cunning Tricks at the Cruise Banquet

"Darling, you truly are your mother's good daughter. It was worth all the suffering to give birth to you. Your filial piety really touches me. You must work hard, you must marry the eldest son of the Huo Family, or else, we might end up being trampled by that little harlot to the point where we can't even lift our heads anymore." Cheng Rouyin praised her daughter with utmost satisfaction.

Lin Shiyi elegantly ran her fingers through her long hair. "Mom, just wait for my good news. I heard there's going to be a party on the Huo Family's yacht the day after tomorrow. With Dad's reputation, he'll definitely be able to get an invitation. When the time comes, I'll dress myself up properly—I'm sure I'll catch the attention of Huo Family's eldest son."

"This is truly a great opportunity. My daughter, come on, let me accompany you to buy a dress right now. We'll dress you up as a dignified and elegant little princess. You're the most beautiful." Cheng Rouyin, upon hearing of such an opportunity, immediately became thrilled.

"Mm, let's go!" Lin Shiyin was beyond delighted, as if she were already standing at the party on the yacht, dancing gracefully with the eldest son of the Huo Family.

Lin Banxia lay on the bed, her mind in chaos.

She hadn't expected that her purity would be lost just like that!

In her past life, Huo Yanting schemed to make her catch someone cheating, yet he mercilessly took her chastity as well.

So, does this mean that no matter how many lives she's reborn into, she can never escape the grasp of that man?

Her heart felt so weary!

Still, there was a small gain today—she had obtained a recording of Huo Anya's crimes. From now on, she wouldn't have to fear her anymore.

No, I need to make several backup copies of the recording for safety.

Huo Qinglin had heard from his sister about how Lin Banxia had gone to their grandmother to lodge a complaint today, and his face darkened with rage.

He gritted his teeth in hatred. "Lin Banxia, you didn't leave me any face at all. Very well. Sooner or later, I'll destroy you."

"Brother, haven't you always wanted to create evidence that Lin Banxia slept with Huo Yanting? The yacht party the day after tomorrow could be a great opportunity, right? As long as you lure Lin Banxia over and then make your move... Hmph, if the two of them could be caught red-handed in bed, Grandpa would definitely be deeply disappointed in Huo Yanting. By then, even if you don't secure the deed to the pear garden, Grandpa will undoubtedly favor you more heavily." Huo Anya, having hit a dead end in front of Lin Banxia before, didn't become more subdued—she was instead more eager to harm Lin Banxia.

Huo Qinglin sneered coldly. "Sister, you're absolutely right. This really is an excellent opportunity."

The night was as dark as ink; it was already deep into the night.

Lin Banxia slept until nine and didn't get out of bed until then. After eating dinner, she found herself unable to sleep.

Her father, Lin Kunhuai, came to talk to her, and his motivation was none other than asking her to absolutely avoid falling out with Huo Qinglin. He urged her to cling tightly to that "big tree"—not only would it benefit her, but it would be advantageous to the Lin Family as well.

Lin Banxia couldn't be bothered to argue with her father, so she just passively listened to whatever he said—but it was only listening, nothing more.

At midnight, Lin Banxia lowered her head and focused on studying a design draft in her hands. Because she had followed her grandparents around, she had developed a strong interest in interior design. Thus, it had become her major in university.

She had graduated from university less than half a year ago. In her past life, her entire heart had been fixated on love—wanting to marry Huo Qinglin and live a life without worry. As a result, she had abandoned her major and neglected her studies.

Now, she understood that no matter a woman's identity, she must maintain a career of her own. That was a bargaining chip to ensure that men wouldn't dare look down on her.

This life, she was determined to develop her career well because she had the advantage of experience from her previous lifetime.

The phone lying on the table suddenly vibrated.

Lin Banxia glanced over sideways. It was an unfamiliar number.

Curious, she picked up the call. "Hello, who's this?"

"Come down, I have something to say to you." A deep, magnetic voice came through.
