Chapter 2240 - 2233: Pretending to Be a Couple
"Yes, Gui Jingjing is like a ticking time bomb that won’t let you rest easy until she’s dealt with."
"It would be great if we could lure Gui Jingjing out." Lin Shir cocked her head and said somewhat gloomily.
Wang Dadong’s heart stirred, "Actually, there is a way to lure out Gui Jingjing, it’s just..."
"Just what? Brother-in-law, if you have a way, just say it. Don’t keep us hanging."
Wang Dadong looked at Li Xiaoxue, "Coach Li, are you and Gui Jingjing in that kind of relationship?"
"Brother-in-law, didn’t I tell you before? They used to train on the same swimming team."
"That’s not what I’m asking. I’m asking..." Wang Dadong didn’t say it directly but made a gesture with his two index fingers touching.
Li Xiaoxue blushed, considering Lin Shir was still there, how could she admit she and Gui Jingjing are like Baihe (butterfly lovers)? Still, it was important, so Li Xiaoxue nodded.
Lin Shir’s beautiful eyes immediately widened, looking at Li Xiaoxue as if curious, "Coach Li, you, you..."
"I, I’m not... she is..."
"Haha, brother-in-law, what’s your plan to lure out Gui Jingjing?" Lin Shir laughed and asked Wang Dadong.
"Gui Jingjing likes Coach Li. As long as I and Coach Li act a bit cozy, Gui Jingjing will surely get jealous and come to us herself."
Li Xiaoxue’s face turned even redder after hearing Wang Dadong’s words. She sat on the bench, not daring to lift her head, focusing intently on drinking milk.
"Brother-in-law, you weren’t planning on taking advantage of Coach Li, were you?" Lin Shir looked at Wang Dadong with suspicion.
Wang Dadong said seriously, "Do you think I’m that kind of person?"
Lin Shir nodded, "That’s good. If I find out you’re trying anything with Coach Li, I’ll tell my sister."
Lin Shir’s words were quite threatening.
"Alright, from now on, you’re Coach Li’s boyfriend until we lure Gui Jingjing out."
After dinner, the three went out together, walking side by side with Li Xiaoxue and Wang Dadong.
"Brother-in-law, Coach Li, stop." Lin Shir suddenly called out.
"What’s up?"
Lin Shir walked in front of the two, linked Wang Dadong and Li Xiaoxue’s hands together, saying, "Since you’re a couple, you need to be a bit affectionate."
The two had no choice but to hold hands.
"This won’t do, get closer, lock fingers. That’s how you’ll look in love."
"Like this, is it alright?" Wang Dadong proactively locked fingers with Li Xiaoxue.
Only then did Lin Shir nod with satisfaction, "Brother-in-law, we can’t just walk down the street, that would look fake."
"Then what should we do to make it look real?"
Lin Shir tilted her head and thought for a while, "Hmm, first, let’s have a big meal then go clothes shopping!"
Wang Dadong immediately pouted, "Buying for you or for Coach Li?"
"Of course, for Coach Li... and me!"
Wang Dadong and Li Xiaoxue locked fingers, while Lin Shir hooked arms with Wang Dadong on the other side. A mature lady and a young girl drew quite a lot of attention.
They received envious, jealous, and hateful stares all along the way.
The three first went for a big meal before heading off to buy clothes.
"Brother-in-law, why are you standing there? Hurry and pick out a dress for Coach Li." Lin Shir said while holding a dress in one hand, walking towards the fitting room.
"No, no need, I have clothes." Li Xiaoxue quickly said. How could she accept clothes bought by Wang Dadong?
After all, gifting clothes was something only couples do.
"Coach Li, don’t be shy. Anyway, brother-in-law has plenty of money, it’s a waste not to!" Lin Shir said straightforwardly.
Wang Dadong’s face twitched, is this how little sisters-in-law usually act?
Since this was acting, it had to look real.
Wang Dadong immediately laughed, "Right, Coach Li, no need to be polite, I indeed have money."
Li Xiaoxue couldn’t resist the kindness, picked out a dress, and went into the fitting room to try it on.
At this point, Lin Shir had already changed into her dress.
"Brother-in-law, how’s this dress on me?" Lin Shir twirled around in front of Wang Dadong, asking him sweetly.
"This isn’t quite right, it’s too mature. How old are you, again?" Wang Dadong pouted.
