C136 (1/2)
Lin Zi Chen was stupefied. He was worried to death about this little girl just a moment ago, and now she was purposely toying with him.
He immediately understood that Lan Luoshi purposely called him to borrow money at the train station. Now that he thought about it, Lan Luoshi might have even called him at the door of the train just to trick him.
Lin Zi Chen turned his head and glared at Huo Qing, who shrugged his shoulders and looked helpless. He was obviously saying that this was Luo Shi's idea and had nothing to do with him …
”Luo Shi, when did you arrive?” Lin Zi Chen asked.
Lan Luoshi tried her best to hold back her laughter, but she still laughed. ”I called you before I went upstairs.”
”You …” Lin Zichen thought to himself, 'It's really as I thought. This girl, once she's at my door, she'll give me a call and send me to the train station …'
”Hehe, don't be angry over the new year. Dodge. I'll go pour some water.”
With that, Lan Luoshi took the pot to the toilet and poured some water. Then, she quickly cleaned up and ran to the living room to refill Lin Jingyang's teacup.
”Uncle, please drink some water. Don't eat too many nuts. It's too dry.” Lan Luoshi smiled, looking generous and appropriate.
”Oh, oh, good. Luo Shi, you are so considerate. Hurry up and rest. It's fine as long as you have your aunt and Meng Ran in the kitchen.” Lin Jingyang said.
”That won't do. I'm the youngest, so I don't know how to work. Uncle, can you watch the TV? I'll go help out first.”
After she finished speaking, Lan Luoshi ran to the kitchen in a skipping gait. As she passed Lin Zichen, she didn't forget to wink at her. She was so pretty that it made Lin Zhichen's heart flutter …
He sat down on the sofa and asked, ”Huo Qing, what's going on?”
Huo Qing felt a burst of embarrassment and said, ”Master, it's not my fault. It was Mistress's idea.”
Lin Jingyang stared at him as he spat out the tea in his mouth. He quickly wiped his mouth and said in a low voice, ”Mistress?”
”Of course, Master. After you left, Luo Shi seemed abnormal, so she just sat in the office and laughed. I asked her what happened and she told me not to call her by her name in the future. That was disrespectful, so she called me Mistress.” Huo Qing coughed a few times and said awkwardly.
Lin Zi Chen covered his mouth and laughed, ”This girl is really ruthless, but it doesn't matter. Oh right, what happened today, you two are tired, silly kids.”
”She told me to turn off my phone, and then we stood at the entrance to the district and she called you. She didn't even let me say anything and said she would punish you.” Huo Qing said.
”Punishment me? I didn't offend her! ” Lin Zi Chen said with a helpless expression.
”I don't know about that. Anyway …” ”Mistress isn't normal anymore. She's always smiling at the company and even asked me to work overtime. One of the reasons is that your family is like a little wife, working as soon as I arrived, unable to stop me.” Huo Qing couldn't help but look towards the kitchen with a look of regret on his face.
Lin Zi Chen shook his head, he had a bad premonition, Luo Shi … You weren't affected by anything, were you?
At noon, there were ten dishes on the table. Not only did they look good, but the ingredients were also expensive. Food like abalone, ginseng, and oysters rarely appeared on the table of the Lin Family.
Lin Jingyang looked at the dishes and said, ”There are so many dishes today?” ”There are still so many seafood dishes?”
Jiang Ping smiled. ”It was brought by Luo Shi. I told her not to. She just put it in the pot …”
”Auntie, I've brought them all, so why did you let me take them back?” Lan Luoshi said as she poured a cup of wine for Lin Jingyang. She then poured drinks for Jiang Ping and Lin Meng Ran, ”Come, let's celebrate the new year together!”
”Alright, alright, alright. Let's clink our cups and welcome Luo Shi to our house as a guest.” Lin Jingyang raised his cup and smiled.
Lin Zi Chen and Huo Qing looked at each other with shock in their eyes. Lin Jingyang was too old-fashioned, even he had been enlightened because of Luo Shi Ice Mountain? What kind of demonic magic did Luo Shi use …
Everyone was actually happier than they were on the 30th night of the New Year's Eve dinner. Especially Lin Meng Ran, who was always holding Lan Luoshi's hand. One sister on the left, one sister on the right, it was as if they were a family.
Lan Luoshi also had a good eye. From time to time, she would pour wine and drinks for her elders without forgetting to give them food. Lin Zhichen was stunned. This new bride was waiting on her before she even passed her door.
After dinner, Lin Jingyang went back to his bedroom to take a nap, which was a habit he had for many years. Jiang Ping, Ling MengRan, and Lan Luoshen began to busy themselves in the kitchen, cleaning up the dishes and washing them.
In the living room, Lin Zichen asked, ”Huo Qing, have you been all right in Fengbei during this time?”
Rest assured, Master, our pills have been sold and we have handed over all our work to the salesroom. Mistress and I did not appear, and Shi Yin's benefits in Fengbei were among the best. That Zhao Xuewei was too embarrassed to talk about cooperation.
Lin Zi Chen nodded his head: ”That's good, looks like this Sun Hong is quite insightful. If this goes on, Shiyin's business turnover won't be far from Lan Zongxuan's request. After the new year, we'll think of a way to spend some more time on medicine, and that should be enough.”
As the two of them were chatting, Lin Zichen received a call from Lu Chenghao. Lu Chenghao had mentioned the Southern Water Wu Bin, and the major matters of the underground world had naturally not escaped his notice.
”Master Lu is very well-informed.” Lin Zi Chen leaned on the sofa and smiled.
”Yes, Master Lin. Did that Wu Bin provoke you?” What sort of person was Lu Chenghao? When he heard the news about Wu Bin, he immediately thought of Lin Zichen's presence in the Southern Water. Then, there was no need to think about this matter anymore.
Lin Zi Chen smiled: ”It's just a small contradiction, what does Master Lu think?”
