Chapter 1308 - 1322: Unfounded Confidence
The next day, Lin Ruonan was sent back to the Lin Family by Gu Haoyu’s assistant.
As she entered, Lin Junyang and Xiao Xiao were having breakfast with their grandfather. Seeing Lin Ruonan return, Lin Junyang couldn’t help but tease his sister, "Sis, you really came back? People say that once someone gets married, they forget about their family. I think you married your husband and completely forgot about us. You barely see your dear brother a few times a year. I even took leave for your wedding, and now you’re nowhere to be found."
Ignoring Lin Junyang’s complaints, Lin Ruonan sat at the dining table and started peeling a tea egg. After taking a bite, she finally spoke, "Honestly, there’s no need for you to come back. If possible, I’d rather you return to your Special Training Team. After all, thinking about Brother dealing with a young brother-in-law feels quite sorry for him. Oh, come to think of it, I should ask Dad if there’s any challenge that can test the skills of the Special Training Team now that it’s been a month since the team’s been established."
Lin Ruonan stuffed the remaining half of the egg into her mouth and reached for a steamed bun.
Lin Junyang pursed his lips and looked at Xiao Xiao, "See, I told you, she can’t possibly be my real sister. She hasn’t even married yet, and she’s already siding with outsiders."
Old Mr. Lin was watching Lin Ruonan intently, "Didn’t you have breakfast?"
For the Young Madam of the Gu Family, if she can’t even manage to have breakfast, that’s quite unacceptable.
"No, Brother’s breakfast was really good this morning, but seeing what you guys have made me hungry again," Lin Ruonan chuckled dryly and patted her hands after finishing the last half of the bun.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Xiao, would you come with me to the mall later? It would save me from being pestered by this guy. We’ll invite Second Sister-in-Law, but let’s skip Wanxin since the mall is owned by the Mu Family, and Wanxin makes it look like a leadership inspection whenever she’s there."
"Sure, I was planning to find Ranran today," Xiao Xiao put down her chopsticks, told Old Mr. Lin that she was finished, and went to change clothes.
"Hey..." Lin Junyang watched Xiao Xiao’s back and was about to say something, then reluctantly stopped, "Forget it, I’m heading back to the Special Training Team today. Sis, make sure you keep an eye on that fool. Don’t let her cause trouble, and more importantly, don’t let her get bullied. Maybe bring a couple of assistants along."
Lin Ruonan crossed her arms and clicked her tongue, "You were just saying I forgot about my family after getting married, yet you’re already acting as her bodyguard without even having a wife. Relax, with your sister around, no one’s going to bully that girl."
"I knew you were the best, sis. Don’t worry, when Brother picks you up, I’ll make sure the difficulty level is at its lowest," Lin Junyang saluted smartly, with his index and middle fingers together at the edge of his eyebrow.
"Alright, with your little tricks, is Brother going to be stumped if you don’t make it easy for him? Go on, don’t be late," Lin Ruonan had a mysterious confidence in her brother.
Somewhere in an apartment complex in Imperial City
With a loud bang, Wang Xia suddenly opened her eyes, and the man beside her sat up. Judging by the sleeping man next to her, it was clear what kind of relationship Wang Xia and Jia Chenggang had.
Jia Chenggang opened his eyes at the sound and was about to get out of bed when Wang Xia grabbed him, "Chenggang, don’t go. Let me check it out."
