"Dad, I'm working hard. Give me some more time and I will definitely achieve results." Li Bin smiled helplessly and said compromisingly.
Faced with this powerful father-in-law, Li Bin, who had never made any money, couldn't even raise his head to speak.
"Try harder! I don't see you trying hard at all! You said the same thing the last time I told you, but what happened? How are you now? Look at what you look like now! People are saying that my son-in-law, Wen Xingsheng, is a loser! He only knows how to live off his parents! You said my daughter is so outstanding, why did she choose someone like you~~"
The more Wen Xingsheng looked at Li Bin, the more unhappy he became. Taking advantage of the fact that he had drunk some wine and was getting a little drunk, he started to scold Li Bin in public with a slightly flushed face.
"Dad, stop talking! Li Bin didn't spend your money. Although he doesn't earn much now, he is working hard. What's wrong with giving him some more time?" Wen Wan frowned and spoke for Li Bin angrily.
"He didn't spend my money? Humph! Where does he get all the food he eats and where does he get a place to live? If he eats and lives outside, will his monthly income be enough to cover his expenses? How can you live a good life with her?!"
Wen Xing glared at Wen Wan angrily and said coldly, "I'm saying this about him for your own good. Don't you know what the neighbors, relatives, and friends are saying about him? I couldn't even raise my head when I went to pay New Year's greetings this year! His sons and sons-in-law are all managers and supervisors, each earning tens of thousands of yuan a month. Look at him, how is he worthy of you?"
"Dad! Stop talking~~" Wen Lan looked at Li Bin with sympathy, and spoke out to stop Wen Xingsheng.
"Alright, alright! It's a rare occasion for the family to get together for dinner, so let's not talk about it today!" Shen Han had a much better impression of Li Bin because of what happened just now, and he spoke up for Li Bin, saying, "Our Li Bin isn't bad, at least he's honest and treats us very well."
"Hmph!" Seeing that Li Bin kept his head down and did not respond, Wen Xingsheng lost the interest to continue scolding him. He took a sip of white wine and stopped criticizing Li Bin.
Li Bin said nothing, but under the table, his hands were clenched into fists.
Over the past year or so, Li Bin has become accustomed to the cynicism and harsh scolding that plagues his wife's family. As a son-in-law, he can only endure it, pouring all his hopes into his novel, working like crazy day and night to write in the hope of proving himself.
But what could I do? I encountered a severe crackdown and the book I had finally written that made money was banned. The new book I wrote did not conform to the positive energy theme and was rejected again and again.
This resulted in Li Bin achieving nothing in the past six months, and his last savings were almost gone.
If there were no system, Li Bin might have really agreed to his father-in-law today, given up writing and his own dreams, and returned to work in the factory, living a mediocre life.
But now it's different!
The system gave Li Bin hope!
I saw the hope of redeeming myself and proving myself!
Li Bin swore that he would pay back double the amount of criticism and ridicule he had endured today!
"Dad, I have something to discuss with you and Mom~~" At this time, Landy Wen suddenly spoke.
"I'm about to graduate, and I want to participate in Tianle Media's internal talent show and join a newly formed girl group. However, this audition is internal, so I need a recommendation. My teacher has agreed to recommend me, but she wants a 100,000 yuan recommendation fee."
"What? A hundred thousand yuan recommendation fee? Are you crazy about money, teacher? You haven't even been selected yet, and you're already giving them money?" Shen Han slammed the table in shock and angrily scolded Landy Wen, "No way, Tianle Media, what girl group, they sound unreliable to me! I heard that celebrities nowadays are all kept by others! They're giving money now, but they're going to take advantage of you later! No! I won't agree to this!"
"Mom! You just heard gossip! Not all stars are like this! Dancing and singing is my dream! I must go!" Landy Wen stood up excitedly and argued.
"No! I will never agree to let you join any girl group! It's not that Dad is reluctant to spend the money, but this kind of place is not for a girl from a decent family like you to go! Do you know what people say the actresses in those girl groups are like? They are prostitutes! If you dare to join a girl group! I will sever the father-daughter relationship with you! I, your dad, cannot afford to lose face as such!!" Wen Xingsheng slammed the table in anger and shouted in a firm tone.
"I don't care!! I just want to go!! If you don't help me, I will find a way myself!!" Landy Wen stood up with tears in her eyes, wiped her tears and ran up the stairs.
"It's so rare for me to have a meal, but you guys have to mess it up like this~ I'm going upstairs to review." Wen Ting stood up in annoyance and walked upstairs on her own.
Li Bin had no appetite at this time. He politely picked up his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'm done eating." Then he walked to the kitchen, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and went out.
