Chapter 162: Chapter 162 Surprise

The Lin Family sent the elderly Mrs. Lin to the hospital. After quite some commotion, they found out she had only fainted from a surge of anger and that it was nothing serious. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the company was in such a crisis; Mrs. Lin must not have any mishaps, or it would bring an even greater blow to the Lin Group.

Due to the turmoil caused by the Lin Family, the renovations of Lin Mengyao’s company came to a complete halt. Lin Mengyao was forced to stay at home for a few days, living an idle life under Xu Ke’s supervision.

"Xu Ke, what on earth are you up to lately? I don’t want to stay at home anymore. I want to have something of my own to do." In the study, Lin Mengyao slammed her hand onto the magazine Xu Ke was reading, with a look of frustration on her face.

"I’ve prepared a surprise for you. It’s just finished today. Come with me to see it." Xu Ke looked at Lin Mengyao’s soft white fingers pressing down on the magazine, not angry at all.

"I don’t want any surprises. I want to have my own things to do. You’ve been keeping me at home all the time recently; I feel like I’m your caged bird. I’m losing my bones and want to go out to work and have my own career." Lin Mengyao looked at Xu Ke’s smiling face with a somewhat serious expression.

"I’m not keeping you at home to cage you; I’m just worried. Let’s go see the surprise I’ve prepared for you first. I’ve been planning it for a long time, and I think you’ll definitely like it. After you receive this gift, you can do whatever you want." Xu Ke looked into Lin Mengyao’s eyes, his tone indulgent and doting, extinguishing the small flame of anger just lit within Lin Mengyao.

"Are you serious? You’re not just joking with me, are you?" Lin Mengyao hesitated and withdrew her hand, her tone a bit uncertain.
