Chapter 36 A Battleground: Show Off and You'll Get Beaten Up

Lin Zhicheng turned his head and looked.

"Ha!" He chuckled, then completely relaxed.

He said it himself: Shi Yu's heart is full of him, how could she just stop loving him like that?

"Come on, Mother, let's go over there."

"good!"

The mother and son got up and walked towards Shi Yu.

“Shiyu, three months ago you accompanied my mother to town. My mother took a liking to these leather shoes but couldn’t bring herself to buy them. At that time, you said you would save up money to buy them for my mother later.”

"I thought it was a joke."

Looking down at Shi Yu, Lin Zhicheng crossed his arms and said with a smug look on his face, "I didn't expect you to actually do it for me."

"You've been saving this money for a long time, it must have been very hard work, right?"

"What?"

When Shi Yu looked up, she saw Lin Zhicheng's smug face.

After a few seconds of pause, she realized that Lin Zhicheng was referring to the original owner of this body.

Lu Yizhou gave Shi Yu a deep look, and frowned almost imperceptibly.

His expression was inscrutable.

"Alright, give me the shoes now!" Song Li stared greedily at the shoes; she couldn't wait any longer and reached out to grab them.

The fish dodged away.

Song Li missed and almost fell.

"you……"

"Don't flatter yourself, these shoes weren't bought for you!" However, Shi Yu didn't give her a chance to yell.

"What?" The two of them were taken aback.

After a few seconds, Lin Zhicheng laughed dismissively, "Shiyu, don't be ridiculous. You know my mother has a bad back, and she goes to the island to have Aunt Zhang massage her back for two days every month on this day."

"You should come to the county ahead of time and buy these shoes."

"Then, fearing I wouldn't talk to you, you asked someone to find Old Jin and ask him to help make the connection..."

Lin Zhicheng's analysis was very logical and reasonable.

"Well done! Lin Zhicheng, you have quite the imagination." Shi Yu glanced at him sarcastically.

"Hmph! Shi Yu, you're just being stubborn!" Lin Zhicheng snorted calmly. "Don't come crying to me later."

Shi Yu sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Is he unable to understand human speech?

The way Song Li stared at the black leather shoes in her hand like a wolf was even more annoying to her.

"Song Li, what size shoes do you wear?" Shi Yu asked.

"It's 39, don't you know that?"

Song Li didn't understand why Shi Yu would suddenly ask such a question. She was very anxious and just wanted to get the leather shoes into her hands as soon as possible.

"Now, you two, please open your eyes wide and look carefully. These shoes are size 36." Shi Yu turned the soles up. "I bought them for my mother."

Lin Zhicheng and Song Li took a closer look.

"This...this..."

Upon seeing the numbers above, the two were stunned.

Lin Zhicheng pursed his lips tightly, his face alternating between pale and flushed.

Song Li let out an excited scream, her expression contorted, "Shi Yu, you're talking nonsense! How could your mother deserve to wear such fine leather shoes?"

Shi Yu's face darkened.

She had previously treated the mother and son like monkeys, allowing them to jump around in front of her while watching a play. However, she could not tolerate the old man insulting her mother.

"Song Li, my mother isn't worthy, but do you?" Shi Yu slowly stood up, her eyes sharp. "Who do you think you are?"

"Ugly and self-righteous, Song Li is number one when it comes to shamelessness!"

"ah!"

Song Li was startled and took a step back, twisting her ankle and almost falling.

"Mother!" Lin Zhicheng quickly helped her up.

Realizing what had happened, Song Li felt humiliated. Pointing at Shi Yu's nose, she was so angry her hand trembled, "You beast, you shameless little beast..."

"Zhicheng, slap her, slap her hard across the face."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhicheng, his face grim, clenched his fists and made as if to raise his arm.

Shi Yu narrowed her eyes coldly.

She was prepared to beat Lin Zhicheng so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him if he dared to lay a hand on her.

At the critical moment, Lu Yizhou stood up and stood in front of Shi Yu.

He gave Lin Zhicheng a cold glance, his deep voice leaving no room for argument, "Get lost!"

Lin Zhicheng's body trembled slightly.

He glared angrily at Lu Yizhou, his expression changing repeatedly.

In the end, Lin Zhicheng chickened out.

"Mom! Let's not argue with her, let's go sit over there."

"……good!"

Although Song Li felt extremely aggrieved, she had no choice but to swallow her anger and obediently walk to the side with Lin Zhicheng.

Everything went smoothly thereafter, and they made it safely all the way to Black Mountain Island.

On her way back, Shi Yu ran into two of her coworkers from work.

"Hey, you guys..."

Shi Yu was about to go up and greet them warmly when, to her surprise, the two people who had gotten along well before suddenly looked at her and their faces immediately darkened.

"Pooh!"

One of them even spat on the ground without any hesitation.

"Hmm?" Sensing the intense hostility, Shi Yu paused in her steps.

At the same time, a deep sense of confusion welled up inside her: "Did I offend you?"

"How dare you ask! The mess you made almost killed us all."

"Exactly, it's all thanks to Shi Jiaojiao who turned the situation around. You know, we both have the surname Shi, so how come there's such a big difference?"

"One is a lucky star who lends a helping hand, while the other is a jinx who brings harm..."

"Alright, stop keeping us waiting. We still need to deliver something to Jiaojiao's house!"

After a sudden burst of attacks, the two turned and left.

Shi Yu subconsciously exchanged a glance with Lin Zhicheng, her face full of question marks.

The two continued walking.

However, Shi Yu then discovered that the other people she encountered along the way also treated her badly, clearly with resentment and malice.

"Are you alright?" Lu Yizhou looked at Shi Yu with concern.

"fine!"

Shi Yu shook her head.

To be honest, she is a strong-willed person who focuses on herself and doesn't care about other people's attitudes.

However, if it's a calculated scheme with ulterior motives, then that's a different story.

"It seems something must have happened while we were away from Black Mountain Island these past two days." Shi Yu narrowed her eyes meaningfully.

"Okay!" Lu Yizhou nodded, and he subconsciously told her, "Don't act rashly, find out what's going on first."

Shi Yu smiled but did not express his opinion.

Then, she waved goodbye to Lu Yizhou and turned to leave first.

Staring at Shi Yu's retreating figure, Lu Yizhou couldn't help but frown.

It was obvious she wasn't listening.

Why!

They really aren't someone you can have an easy time with.

...

"Yu Yu, you're finally back." Upon seeing Shi Yu, Huang Ying excitedly embraced her.

She worried for two days after Shi Yu left.

I couldn't eat or sleep properly, fearing something might happen to the fish.

"Mother! Look, I'm back safe and sound!" Shi Yu felt a warmth in her heart. She gently patted Huang Ying's shoulder. "By the way, Mother, look what nice things I bought for you."

Shi Yu took everything out.

The remaining ten meat buns, five feet of blue floral cotton cloth, a box of face cream, and two bars of soap.

There was also a pair of black round-toed leather shoes!
