"Mom~" Lin Bingbing said with a slightly sullen face, expressing her dissatisfaction.
"It's none of your business. I'm having a chat with Xiao Jiang. You go to the kitchen and bring out the dishes," Mother Lin said, glaring at her daughter with a commanding tone.
"Uh." Lin Bingbing had no choice but to head to the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen smiled and replied, "I don't have any background; my parents have passed away."
To be honest, Jiang Chen didn't really know much about Lin Bingbing's family. If he had known what kind of people her family was, he wouldn't have bothered with them at all. The only reason he could still exchange a few words with Mother Lin was entirely because of Lin Bingbing; otherwise, a meddlesome woman like her had no right to speak to him.
As Jiang Chen finished speaking, he could clearly sense that the atmosphere had shifted.
Lin Bingbing's family suddenly turned their gazes unfriendly.
"How fickle," Jiang Chen thought to himself, amused but not particularly concerned; he was just there for a meal after all.
"Dad, Mom, everyone, it's time to eat!" Lin Bingbing called out after bringing the dishes.
"You come with me," Mother Lin said darkly as she pulled Lin Bingbing into another room, completely ignoring Jiang Chen.
"Bingbing, you brought someone back just to fool me? Do you really think your mom is that easy to deceive? The guy even admitted it himself—he has no background," Mother Lin questioned coldly.
"He really doesn't have a background, but he has strength," Lin Bingbing replied.
"Pfft, what good is strength without a background? He thinks he can aim for something beyond his reach. Hurry up and make him leave; we can't let Shi Family Second Young Master see him. If he finds out about this, that guy won't be able to handle the consequences," Mother Lin scoffed.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Didn't I tell you? Even our province's Underground World leaders would treat Jiang Chen with respect if they saw him. Don't offend him; otherwise, I won't be able to help you," Lin Bingbing frowned, appalled by her mother's snobbishness.
"Still trying to fool me? Bingbing, after dinner, let this kid leave. I'm giving you face; if you insist on keeping him here, I'll throw him out myself," Mother Lin said sternly.
Lin Bingbing was utterly speechless.
"Heh, you don't need to kick him out. Do you really think you have the right to eat with him? Jiang Chen is here because of my invitation; otherwise, he wouldn't even come to our house for dinner. But since you're not welcoming him, that's even better. I'd rather go out to eat with him," Lin Bingbing said before slamming the door and pulling Jiang Chen outside. Jiang Chen said nothing and simply followed her out.
"Bingbing, stop being willful! Come back! Don't forget you have an engagement banquet tonight!" Mother Lin's voice called after them from behind.
Lin Bingbing ignored her and quickly drove away.
"Jiang Chen, I'm so sorry," Lin Bingbing apologized as her eyes turned red and tears threatened to fall.
"Are you getting engaged tonight?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Yeah, my mom arranged it for me, but I won't agree to it," Lin Bingbing said firmly.
"Tell me what happened," Jiang Chen said calmly.
Since the question was asked, Lin Bingbing naturally did not hide anything and shared the situation at home in detail.
After hearing Lin Bingbing's story, Jiang Chen felt a sense of melancholy. The impact of one's family background on a person is immense. Who would have thought that the glamorous and celebrated star, Lin Bingbing, came from such a troubled family?
"Since you are unwilling to settle this marriage, no one can force you," Jiang Chen said after listening, which brought a bright smile to Lin Bingbing's face.
