Chapter 230: What to Do If She Gets Kidnapped by Someone Else?

The woman let out a wretched scream and fell onto the ground.

The other women jumped in fright, each hurrying to keep their distance from her.

The woman looked around, thinking it was Qiao Sheng's doing, and shouted at her, "Qiao Lianhua, you little slut, you could do it and you're still afraid of me saying it!"

"Try insulting me again!"

Shi Lin slowly stood up.

The woman met Shi Lin's cold eyes and dared not speak further.

Leave this place.

Qiao Xuehua looked at Shi Lin with admiration and said, "Brother Shi Lin, you're amazing! I wish I were as formidable as you."

"Want to learn martial arts?"

Shi Lin asked Qiao Xuehua.

She hadn't spoken yet.

Lan Yue Niang said, "Shi Lin, don't pay attention to her; what kind of martial arts does a young lady study?"

Qiao Xuehua retorted.

"Mother, what's wrong with a girl? Girls are the easiest to be bullied, right? If I were as strong as my big sister, would anyone still dare to pick on me?"

Lan Yue Niang: "…"

She had to admit that Qiao Xuehua made a valid point.

Qiao Sheng said beside them, "Mother, learning some kungfu is fine; that way you can protect yourself and also those you wish to protect."

"Exactly."

Qiao Xuehua nodded in agreement.

Shi Lin, who happened to be idle lately, said, "Aunt, if you don't mind, let me teach Xuehua. If Qiao Lihua and the others want to learn, I'll teach them too."

"That would be a bother to you."

Lan Yue Niang felt a bit embarrassed.

Shi Lin smiled and said, "Not a bother, I'm free right now. Besides, Qiao Sheng still doesn't treat me well; if I don't keep improving, what will I do if she gets taken away by someone else?"

Qiao Sheng glared at him.

"You're the one who got taken away!"

Shi Lin said with a bright smile, "I'm the one who got taken away, and that person is you!"

Qiao Xuehua burst into laughter.

She laughed, and Lan Yue Niang and the others couldn't help but laugh as well.

Qiao Sheng glanced at them and said, "Dad, Mother, have you all taken his side? Should I be closer to you, or does he become closer to you?"

"Big sister, I'm not siding with anyone; I just find the two of you's conversation rather funny."

Qiao Xuehua replied to Qiao Sheng.

Qiao Xuehua and Qiao Lihua nodded; they undoubtedly shared the same idea as Qiao Xuehua.

Lan Yue Niang said, "Qiao Lianhua, I think Shi Lin is quite good."

"Exactly."

Qiao Hushui echoed in agreement.

Shi Lin, smug, raised an eyebrow at Qiao Sheng, as if saying, "See? See? Even your family thinks I'm decent."

Qiao Sheng turned his head away and no longer looked at him.

They arrived at the town.

After parting from Qiao Hushui and the others, Qiao Sheng headed toward the restaurant.

Shi Lin didn't follow her; he went to find a doctor to stitch his wound, and after it was fixed, he went to Qiao Ji Restaurant.

Chun Xue and the others arrived at the shop earlier than Qiao Sheng every day.

They had everything ready.

When Qiao Sheng got to the shop and had nothing to do, he started teaching them accounting.

When Shi Lin arrived.

Qiao Sheng was having them practice addition and subtraction.

Shi Lin said nothing.

He walked to a side, sat down, and listened.

Shi Lin's footsteps were silent, and with Qiao Sheng's back turned to him, he went unnoticed.

Chun Xue and the others were just about to remind Qiao Sheng.

Shi Lin lifted a finger to his lips, signaling them to be quiet.

Unfortunately.

He forgot one thing: Chun Xue and the others belong to Qiao Sheng, not to him.

"Boss, Young Master Shi has arrived."

Chun Xue and the others had seen Shi Lin before, and after just one meeting they remembered him.

Shi Lin: "…"

Each of them is quite fine.

Qiao Sheng turned around, examined Shi Lin, and said, "Is your wound taken care of? If it is, why aren't you going home and what are you doing here?"
