After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 569

Chapter 569

Mr. and Mrs. Xu quickly got up to see him off, escorting Lin Ling to the door and reminding him to be careful on the road.

"Take care, Mr. Lin!"

"Mr. Lin, please come again when you have time!"

Lin Ling nodded slightly and got into the black sedan parked outside the yard.

The car slowly started and drove away from the Xu family's courtyard.

Inside the car, Lin Ling leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes to rest.

A slight smirk appeared on his lips.

The car drove smoothly on the country road, but the bumps did not affect his thoughts at all.

Lin Ling took out his phone and dialed Xu Miaomiao's number again.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

Xu Miaomiao's voice trembled slightly with unease: "Hello... President Lin..."

Lin Ling did not respond immediately, but deliberately paused for a few seconds to create a sense of pressure.

The phone call was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard, and this silence made Xu Miaomiao even more nervous.

"Miaomiao, there were some things I didn't say clearly at your house earlier."

Xu Miaomiao's heart skipped a beat, her head buzzed, and her palms began to sweat.

She suppressed her fear and tried her best to sound calm.

"President Lin... what... what are your instructions?"

"Commands are out of the question."

"I just want to remind you that your parents accepted my things, and you took my money. These things weren't taken for nothing."

Lin Ling's words sounded casual and ordinary, but upon closer examination, they carried a kind of restrained yet intimidating power.

Xu Miaomiao's breathing became rapid. She could almost feel Lin Ling's cold gaze fixed on her through the phone screen.

She stammered, "I...I know...I will...I will..."

"What will you do?"

Lin Ling's voice suddenly turned stern.

"You'll be a good boy and listen to me, right?"

"Yes Yes......"

Xu Miaomiao felt as if an invisible hand was choking her, and she was about to suffocate.

Lin Ling chuckled softly, but the sound sent chills down Xu Miaomiao's spine.

"Very good. Remember, be obedient, and you'll naturally reap the rewards. Your parents will also be able to continue living a good life."

He did not specify the consequences of disobedience, but this vague threat was all the more frightening.

Xu Miaomiao could easily imagine what would happen to her if she went against Lin Ling's wishes.

"I've got it..."

Xu Miaomiao's voice trembled even more violently.

Lin Ling was satisfied with Xu Miaomiao's reaction. He said slowly, "That's good. Remember my words, don't disappoint me."

After saying that, Lin Ling hung up the phone.

All that could be heard on the other end of the phone was the busy signal.

Xu Miaomiao stared blankly at her phone, feeling as if all her strength had been drained away, and slumped onto the bed.

She stared at her phone, her eyes filled with fear and confusion.

Lin Ling's words were like a curse, constantly echoing in her mind.

Xu Miaomiao shuddered. Despite the sweltering heat, she felt a chill creep up from her feet, making her shiver involuntarily.

She was completely under Lin Ling's control and could no longer escape.

At this moment, Xu Miaomiao had no room for resistance; the only thing she could do was obey.

Like a puppet on a string, acting according to Lin Ling's wishes.

At least in the short term, Lin Ling has indeed treated her parents well, and they have received unprecedented material satisfaction.

Perhaps being obedient is truly the best option, Xu Miaomiao could only console herself with this thought.

She even began to fantasize that if she completely obeyed Lin Ling, would there really be any different "benefits"?

The moment this thought popped into her head, Xu Miaomiao was startled by herself, but the idea grew wildly in her mind like weeds.

Xu Miaomiao's cheeks actually flushed slightly.

She felt both ashamed and excited.

These complex emotions made her even more irritable and restless.

"No, I can't keep thinking like this!"

Xu Miaomiao suddenly stood up, walked to the window, opened it, and let the cool air blow on her burning cheeks.

She took a deep breath and focused her gaze on her phone screen.

If you can't resist Lin Ling, then you can only go along with his wishes.
