Chapter 278: 278 Gu Yingzhou: I have never met such a person! (Additional)
Lin Qingmu’s eyes flickered with a hint of grievance as he began to complain.
"You ask him," he said pointing at Gu Yingzhou, vowing to tarnish this man’s image in his sister’s heart.
"What’s wrong with me visiting my own sister? Instead, an outsider dislocates my arm. Is there no justice in this world?"
Gu Yingzhou glanced at Lin Qingmu, his expression a mixture of frustration and helplessness, and explained, "I didn’t mean to..."
"If you didn’t do it on purpose, then you must have done it intentionally," Lin Qingmu didn’t give him a chance to explain.
As he spoke, he looked down at his limp right arm.
Even without words, one could feel his sense of injustice.
Gu Yingzhou had never before encountered a man so unreasonably manipulative and openly scheming, feeling utterly powerless inside.
However, he couldn’t fight or scold this man, and in the future, he would have to treat him with kid gloves.
After a brief silence, Gu Yingzhou quickly approached Lin Qingmu.
Catching him off guard, with a ’click’, he popped the arm back into place.
The swift professionalism of the action left Lin Qingmu without even a chance to cry out.
"I’m sorry about earlier," Gu Yingzhou apologized sincerely.
It was truly a reflex action.
Besides, he had already shown restraint.
Lin Qingmu was dumbfounded, "..."
Caught off guard!!!
The entire scene was witnessed by Xing Zhen.
The man couldn’t help but chuckle.
That laughter instantly shattered his formidable demeanor.
Lin Tang and the other two looked over—
There was Xing Zhen, leaning casually against the door frame, a faint smile on his face that suggested he was enjoying the drama.
Gu Yingzhou frowned.
His gaze toward his senior brother turned distinctly unfriendly.
Enjoying the show, is he?!
"Comrade Xing is here," Gu Yingzhou said, his eyes darkening.
Xing Zhen, realizing his younger junior brother was denying their mentorship and was all about playing ball, immediately composed himself.
Putting on a serious face, he turned to Lin Tang and said, "Sorry for intruding, and thanks for your efforts, Comrade Lin."
Seeing a guest had arrived, Lin Tang put family matters aside for the moment.
She quickly invited, "The dishes are all ready, Comrade Xing, please come in."
As she spoke, she poured water for Xing Zhen to wash his hands.
This scene struck a chord with Gu Yingzhou and Lin Qingmu who were watching.
Their little girl (sister), they couldn’t bear to tire her out.
Why should a stranger?
Both of their gazes toward Xing Zhen carried a disdainful edge.
Lin Qingmu’s eyes swept over the dining table, spotting the array of delicious dishes.
He looked incredulous, "Tangtang, did you make these dishes?"
After asking, he glanced at Gu Yingzhou.
Surely it wasn’t this brute who dislocates people’s arms that made them, right?
Lin Tang nodded.
Worried that her third brother might cause trouble, she didn’t say anything unnecessary.
Still.
Lin Qingmu couldn’t help but feel a tinge of envy, muttering softly, "I and our family haven’t even tasted your cooking, so why should these outsiders?"
Lin Tang remained silent, "..."
She didn’t have the chance at home either.
Could he stop being unreasonable?
Besides, who said she had never cooked for the family...
"Third brother, think of it this way, aren’t you getting to try it today? In our home, you have the unique opportunity. Doesn’t that make you feel much better?" Lin Tang consoled.
One shouldn’t always look at those above them; sometimes, they need to look below.
After all, no one is perfect looking up, but everyone has more than enough looking down.
If you’re unhappy, just lower your gaze, and you’ll feel immediately at ease.
Indeed.
Lin Qingmu cheered up again, "That’s true."
He could at least brag about it to the family when he got back!
After finishing, he poured himself some water for a quick rinse and sat down at the dining table. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
He saw a bottle of liquor on the table.
Thinking that Lin Tang was actually inviting two male comrades to drink alone, Lin Qingmu’s face twisted again.
Was his sister taught to be too naive by them?
Lin Tang could tell her third brother was overthinking things and pinched the bridge of her nose.
"Third Brother, I only brought out the wine after seeing that you had returned," she explained.
"Oh, I see," Lin Qingmu breathed a sigh of relief.
Satisfied that his sister knew her limits, he let his guard down, picked up the liquor bottle, and poured drinks for Gu Yingzhou and Xing Zhen.
Then, he raised his glass.
"I still don’t know what the two comrades have helped my sister with, but since Tangtang mentioned it, that means it wasn’t a simple matter."
"Thank you both, I, Lin Qingmu, toast to you. If there’s anything you need my help with in the future, I guarantee I’ll not hesitate," he said.
He downed the liquor in his bowl in one gulp.
Although he felt that Gu Yingzhou seemed to have ulterior motives, he was still willing to acknowledge this favor since he helped his sister.
Xing Zhen was stern by nature, but he also had a forthright side to him.
He followed suit and downed his drink as well.
"You’re too kind, it was just a small effort, Comrade Lin need not be so formal," he said.
Besides, they were going to be family in the future.
After drinking, Xing Zhen felt his previously injured waist and abdomen warm up a bit.
Thinking it was an illusion, he didn’t pay it much attention.
However, Gu Yingzhou sharply sensed that there was something extraordinary about the liquor.
He looked towards Lin Tang with a puzzled expression.
Lin Tang blinked and smiled warmly.
She poured another glass for him.
"This is Medicinal Wine, it’s good for the body. Comrade Gu, if you like it, I’ll give you a bottle when you leave later," she offered.
Xing Zhen, seeing the sweet interaction between the young couple, couldn’t help the broad smile brimming in his eyes, not feeling ignored at all.
Being able to witness his junior experiencing a romantic relationship, he wished for more such occasions.
Gu Yingzhou accepted the offer graciously, without feeling left out, and nodded, "Okay, thank you for your generosity."
As for how Lin Tang obtained it, he didn’t inquire further.
"It’s no trouble at all, I made it myself," Lin Tang said.
Upon hearing this, Xing Zhen’s eyes shone with even deeper admiration.
She’s capable indeed!
A perfect match for his junior.
Now he had even more to talk about with the other senior brothers.
The liquor handmade by his junior sister was something only he had tasted.
As he was thinking, Lin Tang continued, "Comrade Xing has some too."
Xing Zhen quickly regained his composure, his mouth curving upwards uncontrollably for a moment.
"Then I thank Comrade Lin," he said.
At this moment, he still thought the liquor was just ordinary, not knowing that in the future, he would become a loyal fan of Lin Tang’s Medicinal Wine.
After the meal, Xing Zhen’s impression of Lin Tang improved even more.
Generous and beautiful, with delicious cooking, magnanimous in dealing with affairs, and tactful in conversation — where else could one find such a perfect little wife?
A perfect match for his junior, they were naturally suited, a pair made by heaven and earth.
Savoring the taste of the meat in his mouth, Xing Zhen glanced at Lin Qingmu with a sense of regret.
Alas, it was a pity to have this glutton snatching food; otherwise, he could have eaten even more comfortably.
Little did he know, Lin Qingmu was just as disdainful of him.
After leaving the Lin Family, Xing Zhen walked towards the Post Office with a toothpick in his mouth.
The sky had completely darkened.
When he arrived at the Post Office, there were hardly any people left inside.
After telling the operator to place a call, the man walked over to the phone, expertly dialed the number.
"Hello? Who is this?" A steady male voice came from the other side.
Xing Zhen’s spirits lifted instantly upon hearing the voice.
He deftly spat the toothpick into the trash can.
"It’s me," he responded.
The phone line fell silent for a moment.
Xing Zhen didn’t care in the slightest and continued, "Senior Brother, you definitely don’t know where I am right now, I’m at Junior Brother’s place."
"I helped him out with a small favor, and Yingzhou and his little wife treated me to a meal..."
