He has been living off his wife for so many years that he has become so thick-skinned. After listening to Chen Zhi's second brother's instigation, he was only proud that his wife cared about him.

I wouldn't say I felt disgusted at being tricked; a more accurate description would be that I felt both angry and amused.

He had never known that Sun Miao could be so lively, so he pretended to be kidnapped to test whether he was anxious or not.

Tsk, it’s quite interesting for an old couple to have some excitement like this once in a while.

Sun Miao hadn't expected that his train of thought would be like this. Normally, a normal person would listen to the instigation of Shen Zhi's second brother.

Not to mention others, even if it was her, she would definitely hold her breath and teach the person who played tricks on her a lesson as Chen Zhi's second brother said.

But Lin Jun's reaction was this...

Sun Miao was helpless: "Are you stupid? You all know this is a bet. I have nothing to do here. So for the sake of profit, why don't you go find Chen Zhi?"

"I'll listen if you explain it to me carefully afterwards."

Lin Jun was too lazy to argue with her. He knew Sun Miao. If Sun Miao was as magnanimous as she said now, this gambling game would not have happened.

He imitated Sun Miao's tone and teased her deliberately: "It's good that I go to Chen Zhi to ask for favors, but someone will be angry."

"I'll hide in the alley and cry."

Slowly, the two 'snails' finally moved to the entrance of the alley.

Meeting Su Lixuan's teasing eyes, Sun Miao knew that Su Lixuan had heard Lin Jun deliberately teasing her just now, and his face turned red instantly!

He used all his strength to pinch Lin Jun's waist twice.

Their brother and sister-in-law are still here, and they are not ashamed to say anything to others!

Lin Jun gasped in pain, grabbed Sun Miao's hand and asked her, "Are you happy now? Do you want to go home?"

"When you're not home, Xiao Zhan beats me up and no one stands up for me."

Sun Miao glared at him angrily: "Xiao Zhan hit you because you are rude."

After scolding her, she couldn't bear it any longer. Her face flushed and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's: "...Go home."

…

"Go home, Xiaozhi, he won't come."

The place where Lin Jun once heroically saved the beauty now has two people squatting and standing.

Shen Zhi's second brother Shen Huaqing tried to persuade her earnestly, but Shen Zhi just squatted there, covering her face and crying.

"I thought it was him, but it turned out to be you. Brother, did you tell Lin Jun what I told you?"

Shen Huaqing was helpless: "Not only did I say it, I also exaggerated it, but look at my face, he almost knocked my teeth out just because I stopped him from saving Sun Miao."

"Impossible!" Shen Zhi screamed, "He and Sun Miao have no feelings for each other, how could he be so nervous about Sun Miao?"

"Did Sun Miao use some tricks? Second brother, have you explained it clearly to him?"

Shen Huaqing was exhausted. He had said everything he should have said, even things he shouldn't have said, but the other person's heart was not with his sister. What could he do?

He recounted in detail everything he had done and said since he met Lin Jun.

When talking about his sister, she stopped crying and looked like she had lost her soul. Shen Huaqing pulled her up with all his strength.

"Chen Zhi, wake up. I heard you say that Lin Jun likes you before, and I thought it was true. But as a man, can't I tell whether he is interested in you or not?"

"If he was interested in you, would his first reaction when I told him you were missing and something might have happened be to say it had nothing to do with him?"

"Impossible." Shen Zhi shook her head in disbelief. "He's not that kind of person. He cares about me a lot. He wouldn't not care at all if something happened to me."

Holding Shen Zhi's shoulders, Shen Huaqing wanted to wake up his useless sister.

"Come to your senses. You said he likes you. Okay, tell me how he likes you? Has he ever expressed it to you? Or has he ever written you a letter flirting with you, saying how much you wished you had met before you got married?"

No.

None of them.

Chen Zhi's eyes were red: "But he cared about me. After he saved me, he saw that my clothes were torn and took off his coat to me without saying a word."

"There was no disdain in his eyes at the time, only heartache. He had no intention of taking advantage of me when I was in trouble. Do you know how rare it is to find someone like that?"

"He also told me not to walk alone at night again..." No matter what, Chen Zhi was greedy for the ray of light that shone on her when she was most desperate.

Even if she was in trouble, even if others saw her as being ruined, that light still shone on her, warmly, without pity, contempt, gloating, or looking down on her.

Chen Zhi could not find a second beam of light as inclusive as this one.

But now that beam of light is gone, or rather, that beam of light never belonged to her, even if she tried her best to fight for it, to grab it, to keep it... what is not hers is not hers.

Shen Huaqing wiped her face with her sleeve: “Sister, let’s not force it.”

Shen Zhi was stunned... Why is it so forced?

She obviously needs that light more than Sun Miao, and deserves that light more than Sun Miao, so how can it be considered forcing it?

She murmured, "Brother, I'm not bad."

“I know you’re not bad.” Shen Huaqing sighed, “But Lin Jun is not as bad as I thought.”

Before today, he, like everyone else, thought that Lin Jun was a villain and a gigolo.

But he couldn't resist his sister's love for him, so he thought that since the Sun family could afford to support a son-in-law, then his Shen family would not mind supporting such a gigolo.

Who made his sister fall in love with Lin Jun?

But they all got it wrong. His sister mistakenly thought that Lin Jun was interested in her, and he mistakenly thought that Lin Jun was a real villain.

I thought Lin Jun would forget his loyalty when he saw profit, but I didn't expect that he was actually a loyal and righteous man.

It's strange, how could he have seen it wrongly?

For the same thing, some people think they have made a mistake, while others begin to feel proud of their own good eye for talent.

Duan Qinya learned that her daughter had done something big without making any noise and what was Lin Jun's reaction after being tested.

My whole body was shaking.

He danced with joy at Sun Qizhi, who was smoking silently, and talked about how good his vision was at the time like a big show.

"You remember, when so many people were chasing after our Miaomiao, I took a liking to Junzi at first sight! My vision is absolutely perfect!"

"Just like I felt my mother-in-law was kind and Miaomiao's sisters-in-law were good at first sight, I didn't run away when I saw them!"

Sun Qizhi's hand was burned while holding the cigarette.

If he hadn't lost his memory, when Miaomiao said she liked Junzi, before the rest of the family could say anything, his old wife would be the first to jump up and disagree.

He not only despised Lin Jun's poor family conditions, but also despised Lin Jun's incompetence when he worked under him.

Later, if it weren't for her daughter's determination to be with Junzi and not listen to anyone, if it weren't for her daughter's firm attitude and Duan Qinya's opposition all the way, the couple might not have been able to get together.
