Liang Jiaqing covered her mouth and giggled, feeling absolutely delighted.
Taking lessons from the girls in the group chat really was different. With just two short sentences, she had already flirted Shen Lin into turning bright red!
I’m amazing!
Still covering her mouth, she leaned close to his ear and whispered, “You like hearing that so much? Then how about I say it to you every day from now on?”
After saying that, Liang Jiaqing stared unblinkingly at Shen Lin’s ear. Sure enough, the next second, she watched as his entire ear turned red.
Shen Lin was still bent over to listen to her. Her warm breath brushed against his ear, and he felt as if someone had taken over his body.
Otherwise, why would his mind have gone completely blank, along with this strange sensation of being burned alive?
Aaaaaah!
How was Jiajia so good at this?!
You useless brain, hurry up and start working!
Stop acting so hopelessly dumb, will you? You’re making yourself look exactly like the younger one in the relationship!
Liang Jiaqing had no idea how many thoughts were racing through his mind. She only thought it was incredibly fun!
He changed color every time she teased him, just like a chameleon!
As the saying went: It wasn’t that older men lacked appeal—it was that younger men offered better value for money!
Especially one who changed skin color whenever she teased him. How entertaining was that?
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you like hearing it? Then I won’t say it anymore!”
Shen Lin’s mouth reacted faster than his brain. He quickly answered, “That’s not it! I love hearing it. Say more!”
Liang Jiaqing burst out laughing and couldn’t resist reaching over to touch the tip of his ear. “You’re so silly~”
Shen Lin was now regretting this useless mouth of his. Why couldn’t he ever say the right thing?!
He was just about to add something to salvage his image when he heard Liang Jiaqing’s next words.
“But it’s pretty cute. You’re adorably silly~”
“I know, I know! ‘Pigsy, Pigsy, so silly and cute~’”
No one knew when Monkey Bro had snuck over, but there he was, shamelessly acting as a giant third wheel!
He was also belting out the song with his god-awful singing, making everyone’s eyes go black with despair.
[Aaaah, Monkey Bro, go away! My favorite couple had just started feeding me sugar, and before it even reached my mouth, you flipped the whole table!]
[Monkey Bro, what are you doing?! Someone get this mood killer out of here!]
[I’m done. Is this the ultimate showdown between the Absurdity Squad and the Romance Squad?!]
Liang Jiaqing: “…”
Why was this bastard everywhere? When the hell had this ridiculous idiot shown up?!
Shen Lin rubbed his nose with a face full of black lines. The lovely atmosphere had vanished in an instant!
Liang Zhou, this infuriating pain in the neck, had absolutely no sense of timing!
Couldn’t he learn a little emotional intelligence from his deskmate? What a nerve!
Liang Jiaqing immediately gave Liang Zhou one of the smacks he loved so much. “Are you sick or something? If you’re sick, go get treated instead of hovering around me!”
Liang Zhou covered his head and looked aggrieved. He stopped humming, too.
Shen Hao, who had been taking pictures from a distance moments ago, came over as well, a delighted grin spreading across his face.
“Oh~ The lighting in this exhibit is pretty nice!”
“No wonder everyone likes gathering here to look at the artifacts. Isn’t that right, kid?”
Liang Zhou brushed away the hand Shen Hao had placed on his shoulder. “If your eyesight’s bad, go get it treated. Stop saying things I don’t like hearing!”
He paused, then added, “Your brain’s the same. Get that checked while you’re at it! Though there’s a good chance that even if they cure you, you’ll still end up drooling.”
So what if he was being a third wheel? So what if he was killing the mood?
He was happy to do it. What could they do about it?
Liang Jiaqing treated him like a Japanese invader at home every day. If he didn’t get his revenge now, when would he?
Shen Hao let out an exasperated “heh.” “What, did you smear aconite poison on that little mouth of yours? If you can’t learn how to talk properly, you might as well donate your vocal cords!”
Liang Zhou rolled his eyes and ignored him.
Shen Lin was so irritated his teeth ached. He glared at the two troublesome idiots, one big and one small—especially his dear great-nephew!
“You two are both sick in the head, especially you, Shen Hao!”
“You really have no sense of timing. You should definitely go to the hospital and get those eyes of yours treated!”
Shen Hao was the most spectacularly useless military strategist in history!
Not only was he blind, but his brain was defective too. Liang Zhou had been such an enormous third wheel, yet he hadn’t even thought to drag him away. He was hopelessly blind!
Shen Lin was convinced that even if he had hired a dog as his strategist, it would have done a better job than this idiot.
Shen Hao: “…”
Aaaah, people this love-brained should be fed to dogs instead of being allowed to torment a single man like him!
So he immediately put on a sarcastic tone. “Oh~ Love~ It really does make people blind~”
Liang Zhou and Shen Yunqiong chimed in at once, “Oh~ The sour stench of love~”
The two brothers ran off after saying that. Liang Jiaqing had already prepared another smack, but now it landed on empty air. She stomped her foot in frustration.
“Damn it! If I’d been even one second faster, I would’ve ripped your heads off!”
Shen Lin ignored Shen Hao’s antics and stared at Liang Jiaqing as she stomped around angrily. The lovestruck look on his face was so ridiculous it made people want to electrocute him.
Shen Hao rolled his eyes without the slightest bit of mercy. “Just look at you, acting like you have no dignity! Don’t tell people you’re my uncle when we go out. I can’t afford to lose face like that!”
With that, he ran off too. After all, his uncle was extremely vindictive. Anyone who laughed at him or interrupted his romantic prospects would have to pay the price!
Lu Huaiyu had watched the entire show and pushed his little sister forward. As he passed by, he couldn’t resist adding, “Oh~ Love~”
Xie Changyu walked past with Little Fatty in tow and copied him, delivering a close-range finishing blow. “Oh~ Silly and cute~”
Xie Shen had his younger sister lead Qin Shuchun and Su Xiaoye forward. When he passed by Shen Lin, he likewise couldn’t resist being annoying.
“Oh~ A third wheel~”
Liang Jiaqing/Shen Lin: “…”
This whole group was full of shameless little demons. Shen Lin nearly flushed himself into a full-blown meltdown again!
Damn it, what was wrong with all of them?!
Although Liang Jiaqing had been relentlessly teased by the group, she didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she found it pretty amusing.
She poked Shen Lin with her finger again. “Come on, let’s not waste time arguing with all those single losers~”
As she spoke, she tugged him forward by the sleeve. Madam Liang declared that she was exceptionally good at comforting people!
Shen Lin immediately cheered up. Moving with his arms and legs on the same side, he followed Liang Jiaqing through the museum.
“Jiajia’s right. Those single losers are just jealous. They can’t stand to see other people happy!”
This time, Liang Jiaqing immediately ruined his argument. “Aren’t you single too? Right now, you’re only a suitor.”
Shen Lin replied with complete confidence, “That still makes me different from them!”
After their brief, playful exchange, the guests began seriously making their way through the entire tomb exhibit.
Although Wu Dacheng had been frightened at times along the way, he bravely worked to overcome his fear and earnestly experienced the culture surrounding ancient burial practices.
If one ignored the fact that he had squeezed Xie Changyu’s wrist red, Little Fatty’s performance had indeed been incredibly brave.
Xie Tangning praised him without hesitation for being brave. Then she took her second brother’s hand and rubbed it a couple of times.
The little gesture was much like drawing a cross over a mosquito bite to seal it away. Xie Changyu found his little sister’s actions amusing and couldn’t resist ruffling her hair.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with his wrist. The red mark had simply appeared naturally after Wu Dacheng had been clutching it for so long.
It’ll be gone in a couple of minutes. The little brat probably just thinks it’s fun and insists on giving him a couple of strokes!
