He thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I still feel guilty towards you. It was my mother who proposed the marriage. When I came back and found out that the betrothal gift was only this small, I felt very sorry for your family, so..."

"So you listen to whatever my mother says and give her whatever she wants!" Lin Qingping replied.

He smiled and said yes.

"That's great! It's better to give it to me than to my mother!" Lin Qingping snorted.

Gu Juncheng raised his eyebrows. There was nothing to say. He didn't know his mother-in-law was that kind of person before.

Lin Qingping also thought of this, but didn't he know that her mother was such a person in his previous life? He let her mother do whatever she wanted, including herself, of course.

Gu Juncheng touched her head and said, "You are the boss now, so whatever you say goes."

The moment he raised his hand, Lin Qingping saw his vest move, revealing a red mark underneath.

"What's wrong with you?" She pulled open his vest and took a look.

Wow, you don’t know until you see it, it’s really shocking.

Why are there so many red marks on his body? Was he stung by something?

"Where... did you go this morning? Were you bitten by something? Or are you allergic?" Lin Qingping was almost suffering from claustrophobia after seeing this. From his chest to his abdomen, there were red marks all over!

He smiled and said, "Yeah, I got stung."

"What bit you? A mosquito? Why are there so many mosquitoes in our house?" Lin Qingping was suspicious. "Since I came to the north, I feel that there are much fewer mosquitoes than in the south."

"Hmm, a mosquito, a really big one!" There was a hint of mischief between his brows.

Lin Qingping: ???

This expression is wrong!

"What's going on? Tell me the truth!" She raised her face.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The perpetrator is going to interrogate the victim?"

Lin Qingping's eyes widened and he pointed at himself, "Me?"

"Who else could it be? I couldn't have bitten it myself, could I? I couldn't reach it!" He lifted up his vest and showed her her handiwork.

"I...how could I bite you? I..." Lin Qingping bit her lip, frowned, and shook her head desperately.

She tried hard to recall, and she did remember that Gu Juncheng carried her into the room. She had the impression that they spent half the night together, but she could not remember the specific process at all.

"You don't admit it?" He sat down and imitated what she did yesterday, pinching her face into a gold ingot shape. "Sure enough, you can't handle alcohol well. You won't admit it when you wake up."

She slapped his hands, "No way! I would never do such a thing! You are wronging me!"

"Then how do I explain what I'm wearing?" He pointed at himself.

Lin Qingping took a look and really couldn't explain it...

He frowned and remained silent.

He held her hand and touched every red mark on his body. "Yesterday, I don't know who it was, but it was just like this, touching me one by one, and taking a bite every time they touched me, saying, 'This is mine, I want to mark it, this is also mine, I want to mark it'..."

Lin Qingping was stunned.

How is that possible!

"If you keep playing tricks on me, I'll use a tape recorder to record everything you say next time!"

Lin Qingping's face suddenly turned red. She immediately pulled her hand back and shrank back into the quilt. She pulled the quilt over her head and hid inside, refusing to come out.

She believed it now, and believed that she really did it, but she was too embarrassed to see anyone again...

Gu Juncheng was pulling at her quilt and calling her from outside.

She pulled the quilt tightly and refused to go out.

Then, she felt that Gu Juncheng held her and her quilt in his arms. Her hands were trapped in the quilt and she could not struggle. He then pulled her face out of the quilt with one hand.

Her face was red, her long hair was disheveled, and she closed her eyes as if pretending to be dead.

Gu Juncheng was laughing. "What does it matter? Aren't you quite...brave?"

Lin Qingping: …

Didn't she understand what he meant? He meant that she was usually quite shameless!

She closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously. "I am a giant in words, but a dwarf in actions!"

He laughed out loud, "No, no, no, you were also a giant in action yesterday."

"Ahhh... don't say that anymore!" If she continues she will act like a coward again.

"Okay, okay, don't be shy. You're a real man. You've done it. What is there to be ashamed of?" He used one hand to tidy up her messy hair.

She was going to cry to death, okay? "I am just a little girl, I just don't deserve it!"

He laughed again and whispered something into her ear.

Lin Qingping's eyes opened immediately, "Gu Juncheng, what did you say?"

Gu Juncheng looked at her without saying anything, with a deep smile in his eyes.

"Well, I thought you, Gu Juncheng, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, were an honest man, but it turns out you are also a frivolous person!" Lin Qingping's cheeks were flushed.

Gu Juncheng smiled and said, "Are you still going to talk about the house today? Are you planning to stay here all day?"

Yes! I almost forgot about the important matter!

"It's all your fault!" Lin Qingping snorted.

Gu Juncheng smiled, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault!"

Lin Qingping: …

"You're just being perfunctory! Your attitude for admitting your mistake is not good at all!" Lin Qingping tapped the solid muscles on his shoulders.

"Then what should we do? Write a self-criticism? Stand at attention?" He whispered in her ear again.

"You are so! Indecent!" Lin Qingping pushed him away, opened the door and went downstairs with a red face.

In fact, Lin Qingping had made an appointment yesterday with the landlord to come to her house for a talk today. For this purpose, she specifically told Sister Zhao that she would not go to the store this morning. She also asked Sister Zhao to go to the school to tell her second sister to come back.

At around half past ten, my second sister and the landlord arrived at about the same time.

When the second sister saw this situation, she didn't know what was going on and sat down next to her sister, "Sister, what's wrong?" She knew the landlord, so if it was to pay the rent, why did she need to come?

Lin Qingping briefly explained the matter to her.

Not to mention the second sister was shocked, even the landlord was shocked. The elder sister bought a house for the younger sister, and talked about it in front of the brother-in-law. Wasn't she afraid that the brother-in-law would have an opinion?

The second sister was very anxious and secretly glanced at the kitchen.

Her brother-in-law is washing vegetables in the kitchen!

"Sister, you...how can you do this? I have my own future to plan for, and you've helped me enough! I don't need you to buy me a house!" She lowered her voice, fearing that Gu Juncheng in the kitchen would hear it.

Lin Qingping patted her hands and said, "It may not be difficult for you to buy a house in the future, but can you buy one and live with me by such a coincidence?"

The second sister was panicked when she heard her sister talking so loudly, "Sister, please speak softly, are you afraid that your brother-in-law can't hear you?"

"What's the matter?" Lin Qingping turned around and called Gu Juncheng, "Gu Juncheng, come out."
