Chapter 87: Suspicious Lin Guoqiang

When Su Lin dropped Xia Shiyu off at her home, he noticed Liu Mei pushing a Wanwan Milk Tea cart. “Is that Ye Feng’s mom?” Lin Xiaowan, who had a good impression of Liu Mei, asked.

Su Lin nodded, “We met her at the amusement park before, remember? We bought milk tea from her.”

“I just don’t get it. Ye Feng’s mom seems like such an honest person. How did Ye Feng end up like that?” Lin Xiaowan said, frowning.UpTodated novels at novelhall.com

Su Lin responded lightly, “Perhaps it’s because Ye Feng became arrogant due to his early success.”

“As for early success, who’s had more than you? Our supermarket has only been open for a few days and has already made millions,” Lin Xiaowan pointed out.

“Hehe~! That’s just good luck, and having you and Xiaoyu’s help. Without you two, my supermarket wouldn’t have been so easy to set up,” Su Lin humbly replied.

“Xixi, Su Lin, you’re pretty amazing too. I’m heading home now.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow, Xiaoyu.”

“Bye~!!!”

After Xia Shiyu went inside, Su Lin prepared to drive off.

“Su Lin... about us...”

“Call me ‘husband’,” Su Lin interjected.

“No way, I won’t call you that.”

“If you don’t, I’ll have to enforce ‘house rules’.” Lin Xiaowan instinctively put her hands behind her back to stop him from touching her.

“Hahaha~! Xiaowan, you’re too cute,” Su Lin couldn’t help but laugh, amused by her protective stance.

Annoyed and embarrassed, Lin Xiaowan hit Su Lin playfully, “You’re awful, Su Lin. I’ll beat you up.”

“Stop, stop, I’m driving. Let’s not get violent,” he quipped.

“You asked for it,” she retorted, still a bit shy.

“Alright, Xiaowan, let me take you home.”

Lin Xiaowan shook her head, “Let’s go to the company first. It’s too early to go home, and there’s no one there. I’ll have to come out for dinner later anyway.”

“Why didn’t you say that when Xiaoyu was here?”

Lin Xiaowan then gave Su Lin a look.

But Su Lin seemed confident, so she didn’t question further. After dinner, Su Lin drove Lin Xiaowan home.

After dinner, Su Lin drove Lin Xiaowan home. As the car reached the entrance of the Zhongjiang Family Compound, Lin Xiaowan prepared to get out, but Su Lin quickly grabbed her. “Xiaowan, are you just going to leave like that?”

Lin Xiaowan turned, “What else?”

Su Lin hinted, “Cough cough... Hasn’t someone forgotten their changed status?” He pointed at her and then at his cheek.

Instantly understanding his implication, Lin Xiaowan silently smiled and hooked her finger. Su Lin joyfully leaned in close.

Lin Xiaowan playfully pinched Su Lin’s nose, “Hahaha, got you!”

Su Lin, with a mischievous smile, then firmly held Lin Xiaowan and kissed her.

“Mmm...”

Upstairs, Lin Guoqiang was about to open a window for ventilation and happened to see Su Lin’s Mercedes at the gate. He noticed the car lights flickering and then going out, with no sign of Lin Xiaowan getting out of the car.

He became instantly suspicious. “Could those two be doing something in the car?” The more he thought about it, the more convinced he became. “Wife, wife~!!”

Wang Xiaoqian emerged from the bathroom, her face covered in cucumber slices. “What is it? Can’t you see I’m doing my beauty routine?”

Lin Guoqiang said, “I saw that kid Su Lin’s car.”

Wang Xiaoqian, nonchalantly, “You see Su Lin dropping off our daughter every day, don’t you?”

“It’s different this time. Usually, Xiaowan gets out of the car immediately, but today the lights were off for quite a while, and Xiaowan hasn’t gotten out. Do you think they could be dating?”

Wang Xiaoqian, slightly irritated, “Here you go again. How many times have you asked Xiaowan? A hundred? She has told you every time – they are not dating. Don’t you know your own daughter?”

“If she started dating Su Lin, she wouldn’t hide it from you. Why are you being so paranoid?”

Lin Guoqiang’s face reddened; indeed, he had frequently asked Lin Xiaowan this question, and she had grown impatient with him. “I haven’t asked recently, have I?”

“Maybe Xiaowan is just talking with Su Lin, or perhaps they are simply chatting. Listen, Lin, don’t you dare ask her about it. If you upset her and she actually starts dating Su Lin, then not even ten bulls will be able to pull her back.”

Lin Guoqiang chuckled awkwardly; stubbornness was a family trait. Both Wang Xiaoqian and Lin Xiaowan were similarly headstrong.

“Fine, go watch your news. Don’t disturb me; I still have to finish my beauty routine.”

Lin Guoqiang sighed, shaking his head – who would have thought that a strong woman like Wang Xiaoqian would be like this at home? No matter how strong a woman is, she still loves beauty.

“Alright, I won’t ask, but this Su Lin, always hanging around our daughter...”

“He drives your daughter home every day for free. You should be thanking him.”

“Me? Thank him?” Lin Guoqiang shook his head, “Impossible!”
