Chapter 137: Shi Lin, Do You Know That Men and Women Should Not Be Intimate

When Qiao Sheng said that, Shi Lin let out a snort and laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at you!"

Shi Lin stopped and said.

Qiao Sheng hummed and strode forward.

Shi Lin walked leisurely, but after a short while was still walking side by side with Qiao Sheng.

Qiao Sheng: "…"

Don't be so aggravating.

Long legs really are impressive.

Shi Lin kept walking, then turned his back, staring at Qiao Sheng as she walked backward.

"Qiao Sheng, you're like this now. If you were the way I saw you before, walking the streets late at night, would you say anyone would try to assault you?"

Qiao Sheng didn't answer but retorted, "Are you idle all day with nothing to do, are you bored?"

Nothing to do?

Bored?

Shi Lin, aren't you the one with hardly any work, very bored?

He helped his Emperor brother‑in‑law locate the iron mine that was dug before Prince Yong's rebellion, and now he goes every day to supervise his subordinates' extraction, leaving early and returning late, staying there day after day.

"Yeah, I'm idle with nothing to do, extremely bored."

Qiao Sheng said, "Since that's the case, take your Shi Jin back home and look after him yourself. That way you won't be idle or bored all day; you'll be busy."

Shi Lin: "…"

He would rather work than look after Shi Jin.

He can manage it, but the problem is he has too many things to handle.

Shi Lin cleared his throat, chuckling, "I'm just kidding. How could I have nothing to do? If I had nothing to do, would I come looking for you this late?"

Upon hearing that.

Qiao Sheng suddenly recalled the earlier incident and asked, "When you fell asleep at my place before, what did you say? Was it because you still had something to tell me? What did you want to tell me?"

Her memory has to be that good!

Shi Lin thought the matter was over, but she brought it up again.

His mind raced, and after a moment he figured out what to say: "Here's the thing, don't I like Xiao Shitou a lot? I want to adopt him as my godson."

"I disagree."

Qiao Sheng refused without any hesitation.

He's that dangerous.

If Xiao Shitou becomes his godson, his enemies will find out.

What would they do to him?

Shi Lin raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you Xiao Shitou? On what grounds do you decide for him? You like Xiao Shitou, I like him too; you can be his foster mother, so why can't I be his godfather?"

"Because you're a dangerous person."

Qiao Sheng said it very bluntly.

Shi Lin hadn't thought about that; his expression paused, then he said, "It's simple: if I don't tell anyone, they won't know, right?"

Qiao Sheng, uneasy about Xiao Shitou and the others, didn't continue the argument, quickened her pace and headed home.

"Now you know to worry?"

Shi Lin grabbed Qiao Sheng by the waist and rushed toward the rented house.

Qiao Sheng truly didn't expect that; she blurted out, "Shi Lin, do you know that men and women should not be intimate?"

"Then should I let you down now?"

Shi Lin said that and began to release his grip.

Startled, Qiao Sheng clutched him tightly.

Shi Lin instantly burst into a mischievous smile, "Qiao Sheng, do you know that men and women shouldn't be intimate? I'm just helping you get back early, and you throw yourself into my arms."

Qiao Sheng wanted to kick him.

"Did I hug you? Who saw it?"

Shi Lin's smile grew even brighter; the more he interacted with Qiao Sheng, the more he found her interesting.

He teased her from time to time.

Seems not bad.

Back at the rented house, the moment her foot touched the ground, Qiao Sheng slipped out of Shi Lin's arm at lightning speed.
