Chapter 139: Can't Help It, Qin Huairu Is Too Forward

~7 min read 1,310 words

Lou Xiao'e's words made Xu Damao feel very depressed.

But.

He didn't dare to say anything else.

Who made him unable to have children?

As long as Lou Xiao'e doesn't divorce him, he can do whatever she asks.

After thinking for a moment, he asked:

"Have you and Shengli been together?"

Lou Xiao'e snorted and said:

"Don't say so much."

"Knowing too much isn't good for you either."

"In short, remember, from now on we only have the name of husband and wife, not the actual marriage."

Xu Damao: "Alright, I'll follow your lead."

"Then give those two bags of local specialties to Shengli and First Elder."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, picked up the two bags of local specialties, and walked out of the house.

She was worried, unable to find a reason to go see Lin Shengli.

If she could, she still wanted to... Lin Shengli......

Recalling the madness of that night with Lin Shengli, she couldn't help but shiver all over.

Third Ya gang chang back kitchen.

Shazhu, while stir-frying, said:

"Liu Lan, if you have something to do, you can leave first."

Hearing this, Liu Lan replied happily:

"Shazhu, you're so great, how did you know I have something to do?"

"I was just about to ask you, can you go back first?"

"Today is New Year's Eve, I need to go back to take care of hygiene."

"There are still many chores at home left undone."

Shazhu, looking weighed down with worries, said:

"It's written all over your face; I couldn't not see it."

Shazhu, of course, had no mood to observe those.

However, Liu Lan has always shown everything on her face, so she said it so offhand.

And besides, he couldn't let anyone know that he deliberately sent Liu Lan away.

Exactly.

He had already decided to put a laxative into the soup.

As for whether the foreign friend will be the target, that's beyond his control.

Anyway, he just wanted Lin Shengli to have a miserable New Year.

Liu Lan: "How many dishes are left?"

Shazhu, while plating the dishes, said:

"This is the last dish, and there's still a soup."

Liu Lan: "Can Ma Hua manage alone?"

Ma Hua: "Sister Liu, if you have something, go back first; if not, I'm fine on my own."

Liu Lan: "Alright, then I'll leave first, thanks."

After Liu Lan left, Shazhu glanced at Ma Hua and said:

"Ma Hua, just take this dish over and you can go home."

"I'll take the soup over later."

Ma Hua: "Got it."

He replied, and Ma Hua lifted the dish and walked out.

Shazhu also thought that he would personally carry the soup over, then watch there, preferably letting only Lin Shengli drink it.

He watched Ma Hua's back until it vanished from his sight.

Shazhu let out a long sigh, turned around, lifted the pot lid, and glanced at the soup.

At that moment, a shout came from behind: "Shazhu!"

Startled, Shazhu's hand trembled, and the pot lid fell back onto the pot.

He turned his head and saw it was Qin Huairu.

"You scared me to death, Qin Jie, why are you walking so silently?"

Qin Huairu: "No sound?"

"It's because you're too focused on cooking, right?"

Shazhu nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I'm always very focused when I work."

In fact, he was just about to put the laxative into the soup.

After looking around to confirm no one was present, he waved at Qin Huairu, then grabbed the inspiration lunchbox that had been prepared beneath the cutting board, and said:

"Quickly, quickly, take it and run, don't let anyone see!"

"Li Huaide and Lin Shengli are still in the private room."

Qin Huairu nodded excitedly, took the lunchbox and placed it into the bag she had brought with her.

As it turned out, upon hearing Shazhu say that there would be another reception today, she insisted that Shazhu bring her two boxes of dishes.

It's already New Year's Eve; with two boxes of dishes, the year can be spent comfortably.

Qin Huairu had just stepped out when she ran into Lin Shengli head-on.

Qin Huairu instinctively clutched the bag in her arms.

Lin Shengli glanced at it and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Having a god's-eye view, he of course knew what was in Qin Huairu's bag.

"Qin Jie, what treasure is in your bag that you're holding so tightly?"

Qin Huairu: "Nothing, nothing. Your face is all red—you must have drunk a lot."

Lin Shengli laughed: "I did drink a lot, but I'm still quite sober."

"Come on, let's go to the warehouse; I have something to tell you."

Qin Huairu, upon hearing that, instantly became overwrought.

Lin Shengli wouldn't be taking advantage of his drink to......

This is exactly what she's been dreaming of.

In fact, Lin Shengli just wanted to tease Shazhu a bit.

Because he noticed Shazhu hiding at the doorway, peeking.

Qin Huairu, filled with excitement, followed Lin Shengli as they just arrived at the warehouse, and Shazhu walked in.

Then.

He looked at Lin Shengli and questioned:

"Lin Shengli, what are you up to? Bringing Qin Jie here."

Lin Shengli laughed:

"Shazhu, no, what's your relationship with Qin Jie?"

"I called Qin Jie over to discuss something, and you won't even allow that?"

Qin Huairu: "Shengli, don't misunderstand—I have no relationship with Shazhu at all."

"Shazhu, you can go; Shengli wants to discuss something with me."

Shazhu grew unhappy: "Qin Jie, you don't need to rush to clear things up just to curry favor with Lin Shengli."

Qin Huairu: "Shazhu, how can you talk like that? Honestly, I'm a widow, and you're always hovering close to me—what's wrong with me clearing things up?"

"Besides, what I said is true—there's nothing between us."

Shazhu flew into a rage, pointing at Lin Shengli and growling:

"Then what's your relationship with this pretty boy?"

Lin Shengli chuckled, then suddenly threw a punch at Shazhu's neck.

Shazhu immediately fainted and fell to the ground.

Qin Huairu involuntarily raised her hand to cover her mouth.

Lin Shengli laughed: "It's fine, he just fainted; however, he won't wake up for at least an hour."

Qin Huairu let out an "oh."

Lin Shengli fixed his gaze on the bag in her arms and asked:

"The bag contains the dishes Shazhu gave you, right?"

Qin Huairu: "Ah, no, no."

Lin Shengli: "Qin Huairu, Factory Director Yang said before that if you're caught stealing cafeteria dishes again, you'll be fired from the factory."

Qin Huairu, upon hearing that, instantly turned pale.

"Shengli, I—I, could you please not spread this?"

"As long as you don't let it out, I'll do anything you ask."

Lin Shengli raised his brows: "Really, anything?"

Qin Huairu nodded and let out an "uh."

Lin Shengli: "Alright, I'll remember it; when I later think of something for you to do, I'll tell you then."

Having said that, Lin Shengli stepped outward.

Qin Huairu froze for a moment, then suddenly rushed forward and hugged him from behind.

Lin Shengli frowned and asked:

"Qin Jie, what do you want to do?"

Qin Huairu nodded, clinging tightly to Lin Shengli, and said:

"Mm, I want to."

Lin Shengli: "......"

Qin Huairu: "Shengli, I really like you—I liked you the moment I first saw you."

Lin Shengli: "Aren't you afraid Shazhu will wake up?"

Qin Huairu: "Didn't you say he wouldn't wake up within an hour?"

"An hour is enough."

Lin Shengli: "Then aren't you afraid someone will see you?"

Qin Huairu: "The back kitchen is empty; Ma Hua was the last to leave, and I saw him go."

Lin Shengli: "Then go lock the door from the outside and get under the vegetable basket."

Qin Huairu, upon hearing that, immediately ran to lock the door from the outside, then went under the vegetable basket......
