Chapter 109: Missing His Wife
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jin Long chased after Su Shen and caught up to him outside the hall.
Su Shen was talking to Lin Cheng when Jin Long stopped, panting heavily while patting his chest.
Fortunately, Lin Cheng was here!
For the sake of his beautiful wife, Su Shen had stopped to chat with Lin Cheng. Otherwise, Jin Long would not be able to catch up.
Jin Long looked at Lin Cheng and suddenly felt his eyes light up.
“Oh, my dear Su Shen, weren’t you thinking of nurturing our Brother Lin? I’ve got a great idea—let him go on that business trip?”
They were about to finish their conversation when Jin Long suddenly interjected, leaving Lin Cheng somewhat baffled.
“Jin Long, I can manage manual labor at the pig farm, but I can’t handle business trips!”
Jin Long replied, “Su Shen has handled the previous tasks. The upcoming days will involve the regular routine and having meals. You can manage that.”
Saying this, Jin Long slung his arm around Lin Cheng’s shoulder, looking at Su Shen with flattering eyes, almost like close brothers.
Indeed, Su Shen had intentions to groom Lin Cheng. Firstly, because of his relationship with Gu Zi, and secondly, Lin Cheng was diligent, reliable, and grounded.
A person of such character, with some additional learning and skills, wouldn’t lack a bright future.
He felt Jin Long’s proposal was indeed good and said, “That works. If you’re willing to go, let Jin Long take you.”
Lin Cheng felt a bit embarrassed. Would this be considered taking advantage of his connections?
But since his brother-in-law suggested it, he thought it might be worth a try. “Then, I’ll go. But what if I mess things up?
Jin Long reassured, patting his chest, “I’ve heard you can drink, Brother Lin.”
It was said that Lin Cheng could hold his liquor as if it were water, without getting drunk.
He had a good temperament and didn’t drink excessively. His ability to drink was a natural talent.
And the members of the Lin family were all good-looking; suited up in a shirt and tie, they could all play the role.
Lin Cheng scratched his ear, “Well, I can drink. Our Lin family seems to have no problem with it. I’m just not sure if Gu Zi, my sister, can.”
With his large ears, Lin Cheng’s nervousness made them slightly red, giving him an innocent and cute appearance.
Upon hearing that he could drink, Jin Long thought this was a sure thing; drinking prowess would hardly mess things up.
He informed Lin Cheng, “Nothing at the dining table can’t be solved with a bottle of wine. If one bottle isn’t enough, we’ll try two…”
Su Shen glanced at Jin Long, “Then, take Lin Cheng for some learning today, and arrange someone to accompany him.”
Jin Long immediately thought of Lin Hun. Lin Cheng was honest, but Lin Hun wasn’t. He believed the duo would be perfect!
He displayed an expression that said, ‘No problem, as long as I don’t have to go far, I’ll arrange everything.’
With an arm around Lin Cheng, Jin Long walked inside, saying, “Enough, enough, Brother Lin, let’s discuss this in the office. As for you, Boss Su, hurry home. You seem eager to see your wife. I don’t want to take up any more of your time.”
Su Shen was speechless. He regretted not telling Jin Long to take Lin Cheng himself on the business trip.
Having finished lunch, Gu Zi quickly cleaned the kitchen and dining room. She planned to use a portion of the bean jelly grass to make the jelly this afternoon, so she did not plan to go upstairs for an afternoon nap.
After putting Le Le to sleep, she placed her in a corner of the sofa, covering her with a small blanket.
She then settled herself on the other side of the sofa, resting her hands under her ears, curling up slightly, and soon fell asleep.
When Su Shen entered the house, it was quiet. His gaze immediately fell upon the sleeping beauty lying on the couch.
She was asleep in a very natural posture, her waist and hips astonishingly perfect, exuding an attractive curve.
The slightly rolled-up skirt revealed a large section of fair and smooth calves. Su Shen’s Adam’s apple bobbed, an uncontrollable hint of desire tinting his deep eyes.
She didn’t know, that day, when she kissed him voluntarily, he spent days and nights reminiscing about it.
That touch was deeply imprinted in his mind, unforgettable.
He squatted beside the couch, observing her beautiful face, ultimately looking at her lips.
Her lips were distinct, full, and had beautiful contours both on the upper and lower lip lines.
Overall, her lips resembled petals, exuding a unique softness and shyness.
At the moment she kissed him, her lips gently brushed against his chin, almost making him lose control. He couldn’t imagine how tantalizing and arousing it would be if it lasted another second longer.
Perhaps because of his height and physique, a lightly sleeping Gu Zi suddenly felt a tightness in her chest..
