Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon

Chapter 442 - 423: Not Accepting This Reality

Chu Tingting’s hand holding the phone suddenly trembled, and the phone slipped from her fingertips. Her legs gave out, and she slid weakly onto the floor.If this IP address is truly correct, then...

Could Lin Banxia really be the eldest daughter that her aunt lost?

This was too absurd. The Lin Banxia she hated so much she wished she’d die had somehow, bafflingly, turned out to be her cousin.

"No... I still don’t believe it. I absolutely refuse to believe it!" Chu Tingting stood back up, unwilling to accept this.

Something must have gone wrong somewhere. Lin Banxia has parents. She had to investigate this matter herself.

Chu Tingting couldn’t wait another second; she immediately found someone to get her Lin Banxia’s full home address.

She decided that early the next morning, she would follow the address and get to the bottom of Lin Banxia’s identity.

As long as she could prove Lin Banxia had biological parents, then there was no way she was her cousin.

Early the next morning, Chu Tingting drove out!

She went directly to the Lin Family!

Sitting in the car, she looked up at the private villa in front of her.

Suddenly, she saw someone walking out of the main gate—it was Lin Shiyi.

Chu Tingting immediately opened the car door and got out, blocking Lin Shiyi’s path.

Lin Shiyi looked up and saw Chu Tingting. For a moment, she was stunned: "You’re... Chu Tingting?"

Recently, Chu Tingting’s media exposure had significantly increased, so Lin Shiyi wasn’t unfamiliar with her.

However, seeing her standing in front of her so early in the morning was both unexpected and a little surreal.

Chu Tingting smiled slightly. "That’s right, it’s me. I’m here today to see Lin Banxia. Is she home?"

"What do you want with her?" Lin Shiyi frowned, her tone barely concealing her disgust.

Chu Tingting had already investigated the connection between Lin Banxia and the Lin Family and knew that Lin Shiyi and her mother had strong opinions about her.

"She’s been clinging to my boyfriend recently, refusing to let go. I want to have a chat with her! Could you please call her out for me?" Chu Tingting sneered.

Only then did Lin Shiyi remember that Chu Tingting was now Huo Yanting’s official girlfriend. A surge of jealousy instantly flared in her eyes.

However, Lin Shiyi was self-aware enough to know the difference between her and Chu Tingting. Compared to her, Lin Shiyi had no advantage whatsoever.

"She doesn’t live here anymore. You’ve come to the wrong place," Lin Shiyi said, her tone unfriendly.

"This is her home. If she doesn’t live here, where else could she be?" Chu Tingting feigned ignorance.

Lin Shiyi let out a cold snort, her voice laced with disdain. "You’ve really got it wrong. She’s not part of the Lin Family anymore. My dad kicked her out a long time ago."

Chu Tingting’s heart raced wildly, and she couldn’t help but lower her guard, asking curiously, "Why did your dad kick her out?"

Lin Shiyi immediately became wary and looked at her defensively, "Why are you asking that?"

"Miss Lin, I mean no harm. I just want to clear something up. If you could help me, I’d like to invite you to my birthday party the day after tomorrow." As Chu Tingting spoke, she pulled an invitation card out of her bag.

Lin Shiyi looked at the card she extended, visibly surprised. "You want to invite me? Why?"

"Because I’d like to make friends with you." Chu Tingting smiled sincerely, her tone full of goodwill.

Lin Shiyi’s mind raced. Truthfully, she had no desire to be friends with Chu Tingting—in fact, she resented her for taking Huo Yanting away.

But she was also acutely aware that resenting Chu Tingting was pointless. Chu Tingting was still the elegant daughter of the Vice President and Huo Yanting’s fiancée.

On top of that, her upcoming birthday party would undoubtedly be a grand occasion, with distinguished guests aplenty. If she had the chance to attend, it would be a good way to broaden her horizons. Besides, she’d get to see Huo Yanting there as well.

"What do you need my help with?" Lin Shiyi still asked cautiously, keeping her gaze fixed on her.
