Chapter 40

Chapter 40

Afterward, Mother Su began discussing other matters, such as family situations and more detailed work-related issues.

Of course, there were also discussions about creating a better life, essentially about making money. So he talked about his writing of novels.

However, as they chatted, Su Qingwan felt something was off. Xu Lin, as a shield, is too good. Could this become a problem?

If only she had known how to make him appear more ordinary. But unexpectedly, this guy claimed to be able to write novels. Was it just a fabrication, or was it true?

In this way, a few minutes later, they reached the east gate of the residential area. Su Qingwan slowed down, and mother Su continued talking.

If you have time, come to our house. My husband also wants to meet you.

Okay.

Xu Lin, shall I escort you inside? With so much stuff, its quite a distance to walk to your building.

Su Qingwan suddenly interjected, but Xu Lin quickly waved his hand.

No need, just a couple of steps.

It was enough to chat now. If the pseudo-mother-in-law came downstairs and said she wanted to visit, it might reveal the lie.

Okay then.

Xu Lin, take this fish with you, Mother Su said as he opened the door to leave.New novel chapters are published on

No, I havent gone to get things for you yet; I absolutely cant take it; Im off.

Xu Lin smiled and got out of the car, carrying a bunch of things and walking briskly towards the entrance of the residential area.

In the car, mother Su, who had been serious all along, watched Xu Lin get farther away. Her expression softened a bit. Hes a good kid.

Do you think hes good?

Yes, do you know how we met?

?

He helped me with a small favor. In todays world, its rare for anyone to be willing to help, even with small favors. His manners and personality seem good for now; he is honest and steadfast.

Hmm. Su Qingwan nodded. If Xu Lin didnt seem so mature, she wouldnt dare let a student play the role of her boyfriend.

Since you think its okay, then go ahead. But when it comes to your dad, let him handle it himself. His standards are much higher than mine.

I understand. Ill make him more outstanding before meeting Dad. Perfect; it gives her time to delay and then break up directly.

Alright, go back now.

Yeah, you bought fish. How should we cook it? I want sweet and sour.

Sweet and sour!? Su Qingwan, youre not a kid anymore, and you still cant cook.

Look, Xu Lin bought so much stuff. Today, hes cooking for his family. You cant even stir-fry tomatoes and eggs properly.

Im learning slowly, okay?

Xu Lin, dont

Chu Qingchan, what did you do to my computer?

Um, I just flipped through your study materials.

Xu Lin didnt know what to say. A person as upright as himself got caught like this after just a few days of not being vigilant!

You, a renowned big star, dont you have any shame?! You read secretly, even if its my study materials? You are simply a female hooligan, worse than any other female hooligan!

But I deleted them after reading.

Damn, Chu Qingchan, youve gone too far!

Ill download a few for you next time.

By the way, big star Chu, you appear cold on the surface but are always doing lively things. Just dont wet my bed.

I didnt I just looked!

Chu Qingchan growled softly, her whole face turning red. It seemed she was genuinely embarrassed by his words.

Whats wrong?

Nothing, nothing. Shes just playing drunk.

Outside, Xu Feng and Li Yuan exchanged a glance. They thought having such a celebrity daughter-in-law wasnt bad. She was beautiful and had a good personality. Most importantly, the two seemed unexpectedly compatible. That was the most important thing.

But for now, their son needed to focus on studying, and he was still young. So, they didnt interfere, just letting things progress naturally, like between them.

Two hours later, Xu Lin posted the two chapters for today, saved two new ones, prepared to cook, and then heard his dad shout.

Why did you buy so many vegetables? We havent finished yesterdays yet.

Im cooking for you all today!

You can cook? I dare not enter your moms kitchen.

Youll see! Xu Lin walked out of the bedroom toward the kitchen, only to be grabbed by his mom.

Youve never cooked before. Let me do it. Qingchan, what do you want to eat?

Shouldnt you ask your son first? Well, Ill do it; dont worry.

Dont mess around.

Im really good; watch me.

Then give it a try.

Chu Qingchan and Xu Feng walked over, the three of them standing outside the kitchen, seemingly waiting for him to make a fool of himself.

A small smirk formed on Xu Lins lips. The three-year deadline has arrived!
