CHAPTER 235: CHAPTER 232: WHAT MAKES YOU WORTHY OF MY SON?

Lin Yixun reached out her hand, her fingers touching the check. At that moment, Mrs. Ou’s eyes flashed with a hint of disdain—a woman who could be dismissed with money was hardly worthy of her son.

However, she underestimated Lin Yixun. Lin Yixun pushed the check on the table back towards her, speaking slowly and deliberately, "I’m sorry, Auntie, I can’t accept this check. I’m with Ouyang Hao not because of money, but because I like him."

"Young lady, when you reach my age, you’ll realize just how insignificant your feelings really are."

"Yes, maybe over time, many years from now, I’ll regret today’s decision. But if I accept the check you gave me, I’ll regret it the moment I step out of this café."

"Is it that the money isn’t enough? If it’s not enough, we can discuss further."

"Auntie, no matter how much money it is, I won’t accept it." She didn’t want her love to be bought with money; that way, she would despise herself.

Mrs. Ou suddenly stood up from her seat, her face turning ugly. But her usual poise kept her from openly losing her temper. She took a deep breath, seemingly to suppress her anger, and looked down at Lin Yixun, saying, "Miss Lin, the next time we meet, it won’t be as calm and peaceful as today. Then, you’ll have to leave Xiao Hao, and you won’t get a single penny."

"I’m not with Ouyang Hao for money." Lin Yixun slowly took a sip of coffee, then stood up, trying to keep her voice polite, "Auntie, let me see you out."

"No, there’s no need!" Mrs. Ou interrupted her coldly, turning and quickly walking towards the door.

Her steps were quick, she almost twisted her ankle in her hurry, obviously very angry. Lin Yixun collapsed weakly onto the sofa chair, taking a big gulp of coffee.

Mrs. Ou’s words just now had all hit her sore spots, each one cruelly striking at her heart. In fact, she understood Ouyang Hao’s mother’s position very well. It was just that she had finally resolved to be with Ouyang Hao, how could she agree to give up now?

Just as Ouyang Hao had said, it’s not easy to find someone you love who also loves you. She didn’t want to lose this rare opportunity, nor did she want to lose Ouyang Hao.

When she returned to the hospital, Lin Yixun was full of thoughts.

Lin’s mother naturally noticed, "Xiao Xun, what’s the matter? Your face doesn’t look very good."

"Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep well last night. I’ll be fine after some rest."

"Really?" Lin’s mother looked at her suspiciously, then asked, "Why didn’t Xiao Ou come today? Did you have a fight with Xiao Ou?"

"No, mom. Don’t overthink it. Ouyang Hao has been busy with work these days and can’t get away. He’ll come to see you in a few days."

Lin’s mother was still skeptical and worried, "If you did have a fight with Xiao Ou, don’t bottle up your feelings. It’s normal for couples to have disagreements, effective communication is very important."

"Got it, got it! Mom, why are you getting more and more naggy."

"Now you think I’m naggy? You’ve got a boyfriend, and you’re getting impatient with your old mother?"

"Mom, look at what you’re saying. That’s not true at all." Lin Yixun stepped forward and hugged her mother, acting spoiled, "I hope you keep nagging me like this forever, nagging me for a lifetime."

"Nagging you for a lifetime? Then I’d have to become an old monster?" Lin’s mother laughed.

"How could you be an old monster? Mom will always be young and beautiful!"
