Chapter 138: Chapter 129: The Trade (Please Subscribe)

Seven days later, on June 7th.

The early morning breeze swept across the winding banks of the Anling River, carrying the faint scent of grass and water vapor, until it reached the old city in the eastern part of town. It brushed through the dense foliage within the old city, playfully tousled the fur of a small cat under the eaves, and finally surged through the window, filling the modestly sized room.

At eight o’clock, Lin Chuan habitually rolled out of bed and then opened the metal door.

The Little Landlady was right outside.

This was the biological clock that the Little Landlady had cultivated for Lin Chuan over the past week.

Today, her cheeks were fair and tender, she wore a white T-shirt with a Pikachu cartoon print, and her lower body was clad in a pair of short, light gray pants that verged on white, revealing her straight and fair legs, which dangled in front of Lin Chuan’s eyes.

It shook away all of Lin Chuan’s drowsiness.

In her hands, she carried a bag of apples and today’s breakfast for two—mutton soup with rice noodles.

The Little Landlady tiptoed closer to Lin Chuan and took a deep sniff, then said with a smile, “Chairman, you smell so nice.”

“I think you’re really hungry.”

Lin Chuan replied with a smile, gently tapping on the Little Landlady’s nose, then took the breakfast and apples from her hands.

“You’ve forgotten one thing,” the Little Landlady said with a slight curl of her lips.

Lin Chuan was taken aback, “I’ve taken everything.”

Suddenly, the Little Landlady flashed a radiant smile, then leapt up, her legs wrapping around him, her arms brazenly thrown around Lin Chuan’s neck, hanging onto his body and hugging him tightly, taking a deep breath:

“And me!”

“Little Landlady, that’s quite a sneak attack, too bold,” Lin Chuan said, worried she might slip and fall, so he had to support her with his arms.

“Chairman, I weigh 106 pounds, is that heavy?” the Little Landlady giggled.

“Not heavy, but I’m somewhat unable to hold up,” Lin Chuan replied.

“But you are holding up!” The Little Landlady blinked.

Ah?

Lin Chuan’s face turned red, and he quickly turned around, placing the Little Landlady down in the living room.

She was too much for him to handle; it was indeed a bit overwhelming.

Watching Lin Chuan’s awkward expression, Zhang Xinxin’s eyes shimmered with sly amusement. Indeed, with a full-frontal assault, his psychological defenses simply couldn’t hold.

The Chairman is mine!

A woman chasing a man is like separation by a layer of yarn.

Especially for someone like Lin Chuan, a web novelist, facing an attack that was as fierce as thunder and as gentle and graceful as the Little Landlady’s, it was indeed difficult to resist.

Phew—

“Chairman, what’s the matter?” the Little Landlady asked, batting her eyes and smiling.

“Don’t play dumb.”

Lin Chuan spat out playfully, “I have serious matters to attend to today.”

“Then I’ll let you off for now, let’s have breakfast first.”

The Little Landlady said with a smile, then sat down at the table and had breakfast with Lin Chuan.
