Chapter 23 He will definitely not be henpecked again.



That night, Lin Xun and Su Qingshi chatted for two whole hours, though it was all rather casual and disjointed.

Su Qingshi found that the other party was indeed a bit slow in replying to messages, and each reply left her feeling both amused and exasperated.

Am I really that scary? Do I have to be so careful when I type?

Looking at the green and white chat history, Su Qingshi fell into deep thought. Had she been chatting with a boy for so long?

Is this really her?

Shaking her head, Su Qingshi was too lazy to think about anything else. She tidied up, turned off the computer, lay down on the bed, and went to sleep.

Even fairies need to sleep!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun repeatedly scrolled through the chat history. Each time he looked at it, the corners of his mouth would turn up a little, until finally, it turned into a silly grin.

From the chat, he learned that Su Qingshi was about to enter her junior year of college and was majoring in finance. Other than that, she didn't reveal anything else.

Lin Xun asked her if many people pursued her at school, and she replied that she hadn't noticed and didn't know!

This left Lin Xun both amused and exasperated.

He knew that a beauty like Su Qingshi would have many suitors. There were just too many outstanding guys in college. He seemed too ordinary, didn't he?

Besides money, all he has left is his handsome face.

After ending the chat, Lin Xun read the chat history five or six times before finally falling asleep.

That night, Lin Xun had a dream.

In his dream, he was with Su Qingshi. The fairy senior was not as cold as she was in reality, but full of tenderness, like a little wife.

However, as the two walked hand in hand into the campus, a group of men suddenly surrounded him from all directions. Their eyes were filled with hatred, as if they wanted to devour Lin Xun, and their faces were full of ferocity.

"You think you're worthy of being Goddess Su's boyfriend? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror!"

"Thin arms and thin legs, this little greyhound is laughable!"

"If you stay by the school beauty's side, you'll probably be calling your family to collect your corpse in a few days!"

"Shound!"

"Goddess Su wouldn't like a spoiled brat like you!"

"Exactly! Money can never buy Goddess Su's true heart!"

"..."

"Shut up!"

"Smack!"

In reality, Lin Xun woke up from his dream with a start. He shouted and instinctively slapped someone across the face.

Unexpectedly, a loud slap rang out, followed by a burning pain in the palm.

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment, then he opened his eyes and found that Lin Batian was covering his face and staring at him with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Lin Batian: Good, good, good! You're so filial! You even dare to hit your own father!

Lin Xun: Oh no! Did I slap my dad?

"Dad? What are you doing in my room?" Lin Xun decided to take the initiative and asked.

Lin Batian rubbed his sore face, which was unsurprisingly red, since Lin Xun could feel the heat and swelling from his slap.

He said irritably, "Your mother told me to come and wake you up for lunch. What time is it and you're still sleeping?"

Lin Xun was taken aback, then looked at the alarm clock. It was already eleven o'clock!

He realized that he must have stayed up too late last night, which made him a little tired.

"Um, Dad, I'm sorry, I had a nightmare. Does it hurt?" Lin Xun chuckled, a little embarrassed.

Lin Batian glared at his son resentfully and said, "Are you sure you had a nightmare? I noticed you were laughing quite happily just now."

Lin Xun's face froze, then he said with some displeasure, "Dad, you actually spied on your son while he was sleeping?!"

Lin Batian's face showed an unnatural expression when he was discovered. He then said, "Ahem! Well, come out and eat quickly, the food is getting cold!"

Lin Xun's lips twitched, and then he had no choice but to get up.

As he ate a sumptuous lunch, Lin Xun's eyes held a complex expression: "I still miss the old life."

Upon hearing this, both Gu Yanyan and Lin Batian looked at Lin Xun.

"Son, what's wrong? Are you having trouble adjusting?" Gu Yanyan asked with a smile.

Lin Xun shook his head: "No, I was just sighing. Maybe I'm just used to simple meals and it's hard to change my mindset. Mom, don't worry, who wouldn't want their life to get better?"

"That's right, since we're here, let's make the best of it! Son, I'll take you to visit the company another day and show you your future business." Lin Batian laughed heartily.

Lin Xun said in surprise, "Dad, are you kidding me? I don't even know the most basic things about the company, and you still want me to take over?"

Lin Batian said seriously, "You can learn if you don't know how! Your dad has worked so hard for so many years to pave the way for you. Now that there are basically no major problems, you just need to sit in the office and enjoy the air conditioning."

Lin Xun quickly shook his head: "I'm still young, I haven't even finished university yet!"

He has no interest in these things. His father is the richest man in the country, with countless businesses under his name. He probably can't even count them all, let alone manage them.

Lin Batian's face darkened: "You should also think about your father. To train you, your father hasn't gone on a honeymoon with your mother for over ten years."

Lin Xun rolled his eyes: "Dad, aren't you ashamed to say that? I've been kept in the dark for so many years and haven't said a word."

Looking at his son who wouldn't listen to reason, Lin Batian felt a bit of a headache.

"Since you're not interested, fine, then hurry up and find a wife so you two can manage things together!" Lin Batian waved his hand.

Lin Xun said calmly, "No, even if I had a girlfriend, I'd be on my honeymoon with her! I don't have time!"

Lin Batian: "..."

Treason!

Gu Yanyan chuckled as she watched the father and son bickering. Then, she suddenly asked with a hint of gossip, "By the way, son, what happened after you sang that duet with that girl that night? Did you get her contact information?"

Lin Xun was startled and looked at his mother in confusion: "Mom, how did you know?"

Good heavens, is Mom really that perceptive?

Lin Batian also pricked up his ears at this moment.

Gu Yanyan said smugly, "What kind of storms haven't I weathered? Do you think I don't know you young people?"

Lin Xun smiled wryly and said, "We added each other on WeChat and chatted for a bit."

"So? Do you like it?" Gu Yanyan asked with a smile.

Lin Xun rolled her eyes: "Is this a question of whether I look down on them or not? They're so outstanding, I'm not good enough for them, okay?"

"Nonsense! My son, Lin Batian's son, is a dragon among men! What woman in the world is not worthy of my son? Our Lin family's genes are so strong, and you are the son of the richest man. To put it bluntly, the women who want to marry into my Lin family could line up around Liangcheng!"

Lin Batian said domineeringly.

"Where does your inexplicable confidence come from? Good genes? Does your son look like me? With your filthy appearance? Humph!" Gu Yanyan said speechlessly.

"Who said that?!"

"Um?"

"You're right! My wife is right!"

Lin Xun gave his father a disdainful look.

He absolutely cannot be henpecked in the future; look how completely he's being controlled by his wife.
