Chapter 99: The Drunken Act Exposed, Xiaowan Grinds Her Teeth

[Ding~! Xia Shiyu’s favorability towards the host has reached its maximum. As the protagonist Ye Feng has completely become an ordinary person, there are no rewards.].[Ding~! Female lead Lin Xiaowan’s favorability towards the host has reached its maximum. Lin Xiaowan automatically enters the villain camp. If the host dies, the female lead Lin Xiaowan will also die!].

Observing the sleeping Lin Xiaowan, Su Lin inwardly noted, ‘As expected.’

Lin Xiaowan’s favorability had been stuck at 99, and despite his many attempts, it had never reached 100. Su Lin had speculated that only by taking this step would it reach the full value. And indeed, it turned out to be the case.

Lin Xiaowan’s personality unexpectedly allowed for the existence of another woman besides herself. This might be due to her deep love or perhaps Xia Shiyu’s influence.

If Su Lin had only been in contact with Lin Xiaowan and not Xia Shiyu from the beginning, things would definitely not have been this smooth.

Su Lin felt somewhat relieved that he had approached the situation with this mindset from the start; otherwise, things would have been difficult now.

“Umm~!! Water~! I want to drink water.”

“Do you want to drink water, Xiaowan?” Su Lin whispered in Lin Xiaowan’s ear.

Hearing Su Lin’s voice, Lin Xiaowan instinctively opened her eyes, memories flooding back. She quickly pulled up the blanket: “Su... Su Lin, what time is it now?”

“It’s almost one o’clock,” Su Lin replied with a light laugh.

“One o’clock, how did time pass so quickly~!” Lin Xiaowan exclaimed in surprise, then glared at Su Lin. “You bad guy, you and Xiaoyu ganged up to bully me.” Lin Xiaowan spat at Su Lin in annoyance.

Su Lin handed her a water cup prepared earlier by the bed, puzzled: “Me and Xiaoyu bullying you? How could that be?”

Lin Xiaowan, who was drinking water, suddenly paused and then ground her teeth: “I was careless, it was Xiaoyu.”

“Xiaoyu? What about her?”

Lin Xiaowan fell into her memories: “I was wondering why Xiaoyu was so heavy; it turns out she wasn’t drunk at all, she was pretending.”

Lin Xiaowan, being intelligent and quick-witted, initially did not suspect Xia Shiyu would pull such a stunt, so she hadn’t realized it. But now, she understood that only a pretending-to-be-drunk Xia Shiyu would have such a stiff body, making it difficult to turn her over in bed.

But why did she pretend to be drunk? Lin Xiaowan didn’t know why Xia Shiyu pretended, but Su Lin did.

“Ah! Xiaowan, what did you say? I didn’t hear you clearly!” Su Lin heard her quite well but wanted to confirm.

Lin Xiaowan ground her teeth: “Go to Xiaoyu and punish her severely, got it?”

“Uh...”

“Acting drunk, she’s so hateful. Su Lin, I have just this one request. Will you satisfy me?” Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin with pleading eyes.

Su Lin was overjoyed inside. Such a request he couldn’t refuse. So, Su Lin wholeheartedly agreed to Lin Xiaowan’s request, knowing well of his unique physique. Xia Shiyu had it coming. That’s how Su Lin ended up at Xia Shiyu’s door.

Su Lin sat at the edge of Xia Shiyu’s bed, pinching her cheek: “Someone was pretending to be drunk, and Xiaowan had to take care of her~!!”

“Ah! Xiaowan found out.” Xia Shiyu covered her face, too embarrassed to look at Su Lin.

Su Lin nodded with a smile: “Yes, Xiaowan initially felt something was off, but she never imagined you would pretend to be drunk. She figured it out later, and now she’s really angry, asking me to properly punish you.”

“How are you going to punish me?” Xia Shiyu glanced cautiously at Su Lin.

“Hehe... you’ll find out soon.”

...

A night of celebration. Su Lin’s birthday finally came to a fulfilling end.

The next morning, when Su Lin woke up, both Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan were still asleep. He didn’t disturb them, going downstairs alone to prepare breakfast.

Last night’s dinner was a collaborative effort between Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu, with Su Lin enjoying the day like an emperor, especially with Xia Shiyu treating him with extreme care, as if he were disabled. She was used to taking care of her father and had unique insights into caregiving.

“Feeling refreshed and comfortable!” Su Lin thought cheerfully in the kitchen. His legendary culinary skills would come into play again.

He guessed the girls would need a good rest today, so he decided to make some porridge, planning to feed them later.

That was Su Lin’s plan for the morning!
