Su Qingshi glanced at the girl.

Yes, too young, I mean in terms of age.

She looked at Su Qi coldly: "Do your family know you're dating?"

Su Qi is her cousin. His father is her mother's brother. Su Qingshi has met Su Qi a few times, and of course, she always manages to completely control him.

In general, Su Qi was very afraid of his cousin.

Su Qi whispered, "I don't know."

Su Qingshi said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, you're only in your first year of high school, not an adult yet. If your parents knew you were dating, what do you think they would do?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qi's face immediately turned panicked, and he hurriedly pleaded, "Please don't tell my parents, or I'll be beaten to death!"

He wasn't a particularly good student when he was young, and he was also quite rebellious, so he often received special treatment from his father's Seven Wolves gang.

Even his current relationship is something he keeps secret from them. First, he's too young, and his family doesn't allow him to date. Second, he often causes trouble for his family.

Scoundrel!

Su Qingshi had already taken out her phone and was looking at him: "You two are still young. You can do things like dating when you're in college. The most important thing right now is to study. So, I'm planning to tell your family."

Su Qi's face turned pale, and he looked somewhat defeated.

The girl looked bewildered and lost, shrinking behind Su Qi.

Su Qingshi shook her head. How could young couples like them possibly go the distance?

"Wait a minute, Sister Qingshi."

At this moment, Lin Xun suddenly spoke.

As soon as he spoke, everyone turned their attention to him, and Su Qingshi looked puzzled.

Su Qi, as if grasping at a lifeline, excitedly said, "You...you must be my cousin's boyfriend, right? You're so handsome, you definitely are."

"Hello, brother-in-law!"

Su Qingshi: ...

Lin Xun was caught off guard by his excited declaration of kinship, but he still smiled and said, "You're right, I'm your cousin's boyfriend."

Then he saw Su Qi's eyes filled with pleading.

Lin Xun thought for a moment, then looked at Su Qingshi: "Sister Qingshi, we shouldn't condemn them all at once. If we act rashly without understanding their relationship, it will inevitably hurt them."

"I know."

Surprisingly, Su Qingshi calmly put away her phone, reverting to her aloof demeanor.

Su Qi and Lu Xiaoya both looked at her blankly.

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment, then he smiled.

Well, so the senior did it on purpose.

Su Qingshi did it on purpose; she just wanted to scare her adopted cousin.

With Lin Xun speaking, he became the one in charge of this matter.

They decided to buy everything first, then pay the bill and found a milk tea shop to sit down.

Looking at the reserved Su Qi and Lu Xiaoya across from him, Lin Xun asked, "Can you tell me how you two got together?"

Su Qi was taken aback, clearly not expecting his cousin-in-law to ask such a question.

However, he honestly replied, "Xiaoya and I are classmates, we..."

It turns out that Su Qi and Lu Xiaoya were classmates. Lu Xiaoya had excellent grades and was among the top students in the grade. Su Qi, on the other hand, was at the bottom of the class and was also mischievous.

Two people who would never have gotten along were unexpectedly paired together during a one-on-one tutoring session.

At that time, the rebellious Su Qi and the well-behaved Lu Xiaoya began their daily interactions.

Over time, it was Su Qi who fell for Lu Xiaoya first, and then he began to pursue her.

The latter didn't like him at the time; he just treated him as an ordinary classmate and tutored him with his homework.

Later, rumors about them started circulating in the class, and Lu Xiaoya often received glares, jealousy, and targeted attacks from her roommates.

Once, while using the restroom, he was cornered and bullied by a non-mainstream girl. When Su Qi found out about this, he took her to identify her and regained his dignity.

Later, their relationship gradually deteriorated...

Hearing this, Lin Xun's eyes became increasingly strange.

This...it sounds like something out of a novel.

However, he still felt a bit of admiration, as it was indeed quite realistic, and the content of the novel was written based on real-life experiences.

Su Qingshi remained silent, not interfering in their affairs, but seemed lost in thought, her mind unreadable.

After telling their story, Su Qi looked at Lin Xun expectantly and said, "Brother-in-law, Xiao Ya and I are truly in love. Please, be kind and keep this a secret for us."

He knew very well that if his family found out, his relationship with Lu Xiaoya would be over.

He had experienced his cousin's personality firsthand; she was notoriously aloof, and he usually didn't dare to talk to her.

Lin Xun pondered for a moment, then looked at Su Qingshi: "What do you think?"

Su Qingshi glanced at Su Qi indifferently: "I can consider helping you keep it a secret, but there are conditions."

Upon hearing this, Su Qi immediately sat up straight and listened attentively.

Su Qingshi's gaze fell on Lu Xiaoya: "Lu Xiaoya, is that right?"

Lu Xiaoya nodded quickly: "Yes...yes, sister."

"Do you truly like Su Qi?" Su Qingshi asked, staring directly into her eyes.

Even an ordinary person would be intimidated by Su Qingshi's gaze, let alone a young girl like Lu Xiaoya.

Her gaze darted away, but her tone was resolute: "I... truly love Su Qi!"

She initially disliked Su Qi because he not only had poor grades but was also a troublemaker. However, after getting to know him better, she discovered that this boy had other good qualities.

Yes, his biggest advantage is that he treats her well.

She couldn't refuse Su Qi's kindness, and...

She was a good girl, so it took a lot of determination for her to agree to be Su Qi's girlfriend.

Su Qingshi nodded: "You can continue to associate with each other, but there should be limits. You need to know what you should and shouldn't do."

"Don't worry, cousin, I will definitely study hard!" Su Qi quickly pledged his loyalty.

Su Qingshi said calmly, "It's not just about studying. Now that you're with Xiaoya, you should get along well. The road ahead will be tough, so don't let external factors affect you."

The two young people nodded quickly.

At the same time, they were overjoyed; it was no easy feat for their feelings to be recognized.

Su Qingshi looked at Lin Xun, who smiled slightly at her.

For some reason, Su Qingshi was in a good mood, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Su Qi happened to witness this scene, and he was somewhat surprised.

He could not recall ever seeing his cousin smile; she was always like an ice queen.

I never expected to see my cousin smile under these circumstances.

Su Qi couldn't help but scrutinize his cousin-in-law.

What is his background that allowed him to win over his icy cousin?
