Chapter 181: Shi Yun Fell Into the Water

~4 min read 693 words

In that case, they just look alike, that's all.

Qiao Sheng stopped dwelling on the issue, she looked at Shi Lin and asked, "Do you know An Liu and An Shi have come to our place?"

Upon hearing that.

Shi Lin said, "They are my subordinates; how could I not know? An Liu is a bit greedy, a bit chubby, but his work is reliable. An Shi is a bit simple, but he works conscientiously—you say what you want and he does it. If you tell him to go east, he definitely won't go west."

Actually, Qiao Sheng could already tell without him saying it.

After all, they'd been together for a few days.

Speaking of An Liu and them.

Qiao Sheng suddenly recalled the words Na Lan Ruo Lan had said earlier—she had previously asked her whether Shi Lin liked her.

Shi Lin noticed Qiao Sheng zoning out, stepped closer, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

His voice brought Qiao Sheng back.

Qiao Sheng looked up and saw Shi Lin so close to her, she quickly stepped back a few steps: "Why are you standing so close to me? My ears are fine!"

"I'm not that close to you; we clearly still have that distance, okay?"

"This is what counts as close, you know?"

Shi Lin, while speaking, curled his lips and took a step, coming to stand before Qiao Sheng.

This guy is flirting with her again!

Qiao Sheng threw a punch.

Shi Lin dodged and said, "You woman, why so fierce? You say you'll hit and you hit—what did I do to provoke you?"

Does he not even know what he did?

He even has the nerve to ask her!

Qiao Sheng stared at Shi Lin and said, "I'm not that kind of casual woman; if you keep provoking me, I'll hit you again next time!"

Shi Lin finally understood why Qiao Sheng had hit him.

"I didn't mean it that way; I'm not that kind of casual man, I..."

What did he want to say? Did he want to say he likes her?

She and he are totally unsuitable!

Qiao Sheng cut off Shi Lin: "What are you talking about? Shut up—I don't want to talk to you!"

After saying that.

She left without looking back.

All the academies start their holiday on the twentieth of the twelfth month.

Although they lost the orders from the academy students, Qiao Sheng's restaurant business is still good, because recently many people have returned from elsewhere.

Friends gather, invite guests to eat; those with few tables all choose to come to them.

Lest Shi Ren cause trouble again.

Qiao Sheng brought them all to the restaurant to help work.

Shi Jin and Shi Yun are one group, Shi Ren and Xiao Shitou another. Today your group washes dishes while my group picks vegetables; tomorrow if your group picks vegetables, my group washes dishes.

In short, they take turns.

This way, they have no objections.

Since Lan Yue Niang's belly is now bigger than before, Qiao Sheng and the others haven't let her do any work, but she can't stay idle.

Qiao Sheng couldn't dissuade her, so he let her help pick vegetables a bit and wipe the tables each day.

Other work.

No matter what she said, they didn't let her.

After a few days, nothing happened.

Qiao Sheng thought Shi Ren had settled down, but on the night of December 26th, shortly after they returned, something went wrong.

"Mother, Shi Yun fell into the water."

Xiao Shitou ran over and said.

"What!"

Qiao Sheng had just finished bathing and come out.

Xiao Shitou told her what he knew.

"I and Shi Jin had dinner, weren't we playing cuju in the courtyard? I turned my head to pick up the ball, and Shi Yun fell into the pool on the side of our courtyard. Shi Jin said Shi Ren knocked Shi Yun over, Shi Ren said he pushed him..."

What the heck is this!

Qiao Sheng opened her mouth to ask: "How is Shi Yun now? Did he say who pushed him? What about An Liu and them?"
