Um!I'm the stepfather

Chapter 1 Wedges

Autumn afternoon.

The cool wind blows over the water pavilion, bringing out circles of ripples on the lake, and the air is filled with the aroma of refreshments.

The low-pitched conversation is like whispers in autumn, looming in the melodious sound of the piano.

"Mrs. Ling, I took the liberty to invite you here today because I have something to trouble you." The person who spoke was an elegant woman who was well-maintained and could not tell her real age. beautiful face.

"Sister Yuqin, you're welcome, just call me by my name. My husband and Lin have been friends for many years, and we have always talked about everything, so we don't have to worry about it. If you have anything to say, please feel free to say it." Ling's current head wife Her name is Zhang Xueqing. When she was young, she was a well-known Huadan in the show business circle. When she was popular, she chose Xiying to marry into the rich family, the Ling family, and became the successor of Ling Yicheng, the leader of the Ling family.

Marrying into a wealthy family is something everyone envies, but in fact Zhang Xueqing's situation was very embarrassing a few years ago.Because of the many years of marriage, Zhang Xueqing's stomach has never moved, and when she married into the Ling family, the Ling family already had a 15-year-old young master.Many people are not optimistic about this disparate marriage, waiting to see the joke about Zhang Xueqing's dream of a wealthy family.But after Zhang Xueqing married into a wealthy family, she has always been low-key and cautious, and she is also thoughtful and decent in doing things, but she has gradually gained a firm foothold in the Ling family.Two years ago, she got her wish and gave birth to the second young master of the Ling family. Ling Yi was naturally overjoyed at the birth of his son. Since then, Zhang Xueqing's position as the mistress of the family has become more stable.

"What Xueqing said is true. Since that's the case, I'll just say it straight." Accompanied by soothing music and sweet tea, Zhuang Yuqin explained the purpose of this afternoon tea.

To put it simply, this is a story about an old mother who is worried that her leftover son will not find a partner, so she finds someone to lead the red line.Of course, Zhuang Yuqin will not admit that she is an "old mother". She defines herself as a hot mom with a 30-year-old leftover son who is still stylish and elegant.

As for the one who was positioned as the son of the leftover man by Hot Mom, it was Lin Xiedong, the president and CEO of the business giant Far East Group.

Lin Xiedong, the eldest son of Lin Zhishen, the founder and chairman of Far East Group, was appointed by his father as the CEO of Far East at the age of 25. In just [-] years, the already powerful Far East Group has been promoted to a higher level, and it has truly developed into a huge and unshakable business empire.Lin Xiedong himself is hailed as the youngest business godfather by industry insiders.

It stands to reason that such a young and overbearing boss has nothing to do with the leftover man, not to mention that Lin Xiedong also inherited his mother's unique good looks.Broad and full forehead, thick and domineering sword eyebrows, sharp and restrained eyes... the expressionless aggressiveness coupled with Fengshen's handsome and aggressive face almost makes every opposite sex who faces him feel turbulent.

However, such a five-star tall, handsome and rich man broke the heart of the fashionable and elegant old mother.Zhuang Yuqin claims to be an open-minded mother. Since Lin Xiedong's adolescence, she has always paid attention to her son's emotional life-in fact, the young girl's mother Lin secretly hopes that her handsome son will soon abduct a sweet little daughter-in-law to act as a youth campus idol drama.

To her great disappointment, her son has been an insulator of the opposite sex since he was a child, and he never made friends with little girls. Even when a female classmate took the initiative to call home, he would coldly end the call with "Is there something wrong? I'm fine." .

And this is not the first time that Zhuang Yuqin has a teenage heart attack. As early as when Lin Xiaodong stepped into the small class of the kindergarten, Zhuang Yuqin fantasized that her cute and handsome son could lead an equally cute girl doll to play house together—playing the game of childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts.Imagine two Yuxue's cute three-headed little dolls, hugging a blonde Barbie princess, the little loli said "Papa, the baby is crying, go make milk powder~", and the little Zhengtai said "Wait a minute , the water is still burning~"...Oh, just thinking about it makes my heart tremble.

It's a pity that my son has a cold face all day long at a young age. He basically doesn't talk in the kindergarten, doesn't participate in activities, let alone play house with little girls.The only good friend is the neighbor's little boy Pipi.Zhuang Yuqin was disillusioned, so she could only comfort herself that the child was still young, and that when she was older, she would like to play with girls.

However, until Lin Xiedong finished his studies and took over the Far East, he never had a girlfriend, let alone a girlfriend, and he didn't even have any close friends of the opposite sex.Zhuang Yuqin panicked. Isn't there something wrong with her son? ——Don't get it wrong, Mother Lin is worried about psychological obstacles, not that.

Zhuang Yuqin, who was eager to miss her daughter-in-law, hurriedly arranged a blind date for Lin Xiedong. Fortunately, Lin Xiedong had no objection to his mother's arrangement, so he chose a quiet and delicate girl to get married.Zhuang Yuqin breathed a sigh of relief. His son might just be a little socially handicapped and not used to taking the initiative.

But Zhuang Yuqin didn't expect that it was too early to let go. The good daughter-in-law died within three years after marrying, leaving behind her tall, handsome and rich husband and an unweaned baby without any regrets.To be honest, Zhuang Yuqin has always felt guilty about this daughter-in-law, always feeling that if she cared more, her daughter-in-law might not be dead...

That's right, her son is not only a leftover man with a slight social barrier, but now he is also a leftover man with a small oil bottle.Zhuang Yuqin is in a hurry, not because he is worried about his son's poor conditions--the conditions of the Lin family, let alone one oil bottle, even if there is another box of oil bottles, there will still be a lot of girls lining up to squeeze in to be young mistresses, okay?

What made Zhuang Yuqin anxious was that since the former daughter-in-law left, his son had become more serious with women.I once revealed that I wanted to find a stepmother for my grandson for two years, but my son flatly rejected him, saying that he was afraid that the stepmother would not be able to devote himself to the child and would not consider remarriage.

Now Zhuang Yuqin became anxious. Originally, she wouldn't have planned to marry her son as a successor just two years after her daughter-in-law passed away. It was because of her son's attitude that she had no room for it that she seemed to see the miserable situation of his son dying alone, gray-haired, old and homeless.With such a state of mind, Zhuang Yuqin is living like a year, wishing to see her son remarry immediately.

But my son is very determined, what should I do?The turning point comes from the new marriage law that was just promulgated by the country last year. This time the marriage law passed a proposal that can be regarded as an earth-shattering change for Chinese people: same-sex marriage will be legalized from January 2070, 1.All of a sudden, the new marriage law became popular, and people all over the country, including Zhuang Yuqin, who spend their days at spas and buy things, are talking about the new law.Zhuang Yuqin also opened the door to a new world because of this. One day when she was having a spa with her best friend, she was suddenly blessed: Dongdong doesn't like men more than women, right?That's okay, no matter whether you're a man or a woman, it's better to have someone to accompany you than to live alone for the rest of your life, isn't it?

Because of this sudden whimsy, there is the above scene of Mrs. Yueling Zhang Xueqing drinking afternoon tea.

As for why the date was Mrs. Ling's?This is about Zhuang Yuqin's girlish heart when she was young.As I said earlier, Zhuang Yuqin fantasized about his son bringing his daughter-in-law in as early as when his precious son was in kindergarten, but his son couldn't get it right.To be honest, at that time, I was a little inexplicably worried about not being able to find a daughter-in-law in the future. Just at that time, her best friend Zhuang Yaying was about to give birth. Zhuang Yuqin joked that if she was a girl, she would marry Dongdong as a wife. Zhuang Ya Sakura also giggled and agreed.However, the later child was born as a male doll with a handle, so this joke-like "marriage with fingertips" naturally came to nothing.

Zhuang Yaying is Ling Yicheng's first wife. She is gentle and considerate. Although she and Ling Yicheng are in a political marriage, they have always treated each other with respect.The reason why Ling's and Far East have maintained a cooperative relationship for many years is not because of the good relationship between the two chairmen, as Zhang Xueqing said, but because of the deep friendship between the chairmen's wives.Since Zhuang Yaying passed away due to illness ten years ago, although the two families have been cooperating closely in business, they rarely move around in private.After Zhang Xueqing started, she had no more private contacts.

Until Ling Yicheng's 20th birthday a month ago, Zhuang Yuqin saw the son of Zhuang Yaying who had lived abroad for a long time at the banquet, and saw the gentle and kind young man who was as gentle and kind as an old friend. The former "finger pulp is marriage".
