Chapter 48: Try It Again! Watch Me Chop Off Your Claws

Why does Shi Lin ask about this?

Qiao Sheng was just about to answer Shi Lin when a black figure suddenly entered from outside, kneeling on one knee before Shi Lin: "Lord, the person has been found."

Found?

So it's not Xiao Shitou then.

Xiao Shitou only looks a bit like him.

"Get up!"

Shi Lin looked at the newcomer and said.

Without waiting for Qiao Sheng and the others to say anything.

Shi Lin introduced the man in black before them: "Qiao Sheng, this man Xiao Shitou is my subordinate; his name is An Jiu."

An Jiu was a bit surprised, but said nothing.

Qiao Sheng gave him a once‑over and asked Shi Lin, "Are you about to leave?"

A smile that couldn't be hidden in his eyes.

She was so eager for him to go?

Little did Qiao Sheng know, she wanted him to leave now, even wanted him to run.

Shi Lin said at a measured pace, "Indeed I'm about to leave, but aren't you going to invite your dad and the others to a meal, introduce me to them? I'll have lunch first and then go."

"It's fine, I can explain to my dad and the others."

Qiao Sheng almost said, "You should hurry and leave."

Shi Lin: "…"

That stinky woman made him pick so many vegetables, and he even cut his hand.

Now she won't even let him eat, just wants him to go.

Is there anything this beautiful in the world?

Shi Lin lifted his chin and said, "It's not that urgent; we've been looking for months, missing this moment won't matter. I'll have a meal and then leave the same way."

"Dad, are you really leaving?"

Xiao Shitou's eyes were filled with tears, looking as pitiful as possible.

What, he called his own lord "dad"?

He didn't mishear, did he?

An Jiu's eyes widened.

He looked at Shi Lin, then at Xiao Shitou; not only did they really look a bit alike, could it be that he's actually his master's biological child?

Good, he learned something amazing!

If his own matriarch found out, would she still urge her master to get married? Certainly not; she'd immediately come and take the mother and son back!

His little master looks fine, but his mother is a bit clumsy.

His master can actually speak up, impressive, impressive.

Shi Lin also doesn't know what An Yi is thinking.

If he knew, he'd definitely kick him on the spot.

Shi Lin couldn't stand seeing Xiao Shitou like that, reached out and lifted him: "Don't cry. If you don't want to be separated from me, how about this—come with me home and be my son."

The more he thought about it, the more it seemed good.

Xiao Shitou looks like him; if he takes him back, his mother will surely believe he's his biological child.

"You think that's nice! He's my son!"

Qiao Sheng snatched Xiao Shitou from Shi Lin's arms.

"He's also mine."

Shi Lin took him back.

An Jiu: "…"

His own master is shameless, actually snatching someone else's son.

Qiao Sheng kicked Shi Lin, grabbed Xiao Shitou and set him aside, lifted a kitchen knife and said, "Try to make a move again! See if I don't chop off your claws! I gave you a position, and you actually think you're Ligouzi, Xiao Shitou's dad?"

Threatening him with a knife?

Will he be scared?

He's always the one who intimidates others!

Shi Lin hummed and said, "Am I Xiao Shitou's dad? But you're not his mother either!"

What?

An Jiu's mind was full of question marks.

Qiao Sheng didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xiao Shitou, while wiping away his falling tears, said to Shi Lin, "Shi Shushu, stop arguing with my mother. She is my mother; without her, I would have died long ago."

Shi Lin's expression froze.

Qiao Sheng, feeling sorry, lifted Xiao Shitou, kissed his head and said, "Xiao Shitou, don't cry. Mom won't argue with him anymore. You are my son; you will be my son for this whole life."
