Chapter 940: Chapter 940: Come, let’s get the paperwork clear first


    Fu Qin saw that her feigned vulnerability had no effect on him, and she cursed internally, how could he not have a shred ofpassion.


    But she could not voice her curses, feeling a stifling sensation in her chest. After taking a few breaths to calm herself, she managed to stabilize herposure and said, “This is the situation, as you know, I had a failed marriage, because my ex-husband waszy, indulged in idleness and cheated, I couldn’t bear it and chose to divorce and live alone.”


    Mr. Lin had heard her mention this before and continued to listen.


    Fu Qin was adept at twisting the truth as soon as she spoke: “I hadpletely severed ties with him, but recently, when he couldn’t make money, he set his sights on me, iming that the division of marital properties back then was unfair, and started hounding me for money. Out of consideration for the past, I gave him some, but I never expected that he would be insatiable and kepting back for more.”


    “No matter where I tried to hide, I couldn’t escape him. Now he is coveting the old house I own, forcefully showing up at my doorstep like a bandit,” Fu Qin said with tears glossing her eyes, “Mingzhuo, I can’t handle such a hooligan by myself. I know he’s afraid of strong opposition, as long as you’re willing to stand up for me, he will surely be afraid and leave.”


    So that’s what this was all about? Mr. Lin asked, “Then what do you want me to do to stand up for you?”


    Upon hearing this, Fu Qin felt hopeful and carefully considered her words before responding, “He’s just bullying me because I’m alone, thinking I have no support and a woman can’t defeat him. I think, if you just warn him that I am your… wife, or girlfriend, with your family’s current financial status and position, he definitely wouldn’t dare to cause any more trouble.”


    Mr. Lin started to ponder.


    The longer he pondered, the more anxious Fu Qin became.


    Her original intention was to have Lin Mingzhuo acknowledge her identity in front of others first, then with a little maniption on her part, spread the news. It didn’t matter if it was fake; as long as he dered it himself, who cares what reasons lie behind it? With fake turned to real, she would have ample opportunity to make her moveter.


    iming her identity, she would step by step enter the Lin family.


    “This might be something Tangtang disagrees with,” Mr. Lin knew his daughter didn’t like the woman before him and helping her might infuriate Tangtang.


    “It’s just acting, I can exin it to Tangtang,” Fu Qin wiped away her tears, but in her heart, she nned, how she exined it, and what Lin Gantang interpreted, was up to her to decide.


    Mr. Lin adjusted his reading sses, “About the old house you mentioned…”


    Fu Qin knew he was interested and put on a sincere face, “I am true to my word. Anyway, without resolving this issue, the old house will most likely be taken over by my ex-husband. It’s better to give it to you than him, at least I won’t feel so ufortable about it.”


    “The old house is quite valuable, and I’m not looking to take advantage of you. Name your price,” to avoid future entanglements, Mr. Lin said, “and then I’ll deduct a reasonable amount from the total as my fee for helping you.”


    “Ah, this…” Fu Qin didn’t expect him to make such a proposition.


    If this turned into a transaction, it would be more difficult for her to manipte future events. She hastily said, “Mingzhuo, I trust your character, considering our old ssmates’ friendship…”

    Mr. Lin waved his hand to interrupt her, “What about the deed? Or other proof of ownership, bring them here. Let’s get the paperwork sorted out first, then your ex-husband’s issue will be easy to handle.”


    Seeing her hesitance, Mr. Lin frowned, “Really? After all this talk, you’re not willing to give up the house?”


    Fu Qin’s expression stiffened; she hadn’t expected Mr. Lin to directly ask for her old house.


    Once the property was transferred, it would be hard to get it back. Her mind raced, weighing if the risk was worth it.


    However, Mr. Lin didn’t give her much time to think. Seeing her like this, he guessed she didn’t want to give it up.
