"Uncle Qiao, what are you doing outside?"
Qiao Yu was strolling outside when he suddenly heard Chen Junyu's voice. Startled, he looked over and saw Chen Junyu carrying flowers in one hand and a large bag in the other, walking towards him.
He knew that Chen Junyu was definitely after Qiao Ruoxi.
This made Qiao Yu very embarrassed.
After all, he had been using Qiao Ruoxi to keep Chen Junyu hanging on, making him work hard for the Jinyu County settlement. But now, he had deliberately left his own daughter alone in the house, leaving her and Zhang Lin alone together...
Now, he really didn't know how to face Chen Junyu, especially... if Chen Junyu found out that Qiao Ruoxi and Zhang Lin were alone in a room together...
Wouldn't Chen Junyu be furious?
"Uh... I'm fine, just taking a stroll."
Qiao Yu gave an awkward laugh, made up a reason on the spot, and then asked, "Junyu, what brings you here?"
"Didn't the city lord announce our appointments today? I also received my first captain's salary from the city lord's mansion, so I thought I'd buy something to visit you, Uncle Qiao, and of course, to see Xixi as well."
Chen Junyu wasn't wealthy, especially after arriving in Hope City. He had no income whatsoever. It was only after participating in the battles against the Golden Crowned Giant Eagle and the Ratmen that the City Lord's Mansion distributed some extraordinary materials to him, which allowed him to exchange for various foods and supplies to survive in Hope City.
When the new era arrived, he had earned some contribution points by hunting extraordinary creatures, but this income was negligible.
Now that he has passed the city lord's selection and become one of the 12 captains, with the captain's salary, he finally has the confidence to buy some things to visit the goddess's house.
Of course, it also carries the meaning of making an announcement.
Zhang Lin is the team leader, and so am I, Chen Junyu.
Surely the goddess can't still look down on me now, right?
Now that he's the team leader and has gained confidence, Chen Junyu only wants to win the heart of the goddess and eventually marry her.
So, after becoming the captain, he first received an advance on a month's salary and a large amount of contribution points. Then, he exchanged some rare supplies in Hope City and bought a bouquet of flowers. After that, he immediately went to the goddess's house to curry favor.
"Junyu, you're so thoughtful, child." Qiao Yu was quite helpless, sighing at Chen Junyu's devotion, but could only politely refuse, "Now that the Jinyu County gathering place is gone, we can't support you anymore. It's not easy for you to be alone. You should take these things back."
Chen Junyu didn't understand Qiao Yu's polite refusal. He smiled and said, "Uncle Qiao, why are you being so polite with me? Come on, I'll take you home."
As he spoke, he headed towards Qiao Yu's house.
Thinking about it carefully, he had worked very hard these past few days to compete for the captain's position, and hadn't seen the goddess for more than ten days.
Now, he is extremely anxious.
"Wait!" Seeing his anxious expression, Qiao Yu felt even more bitter and quickly stepped forward to block his way. "Junyu, there's no rush. Let's take a walk outside with Uncle Qiao first..."
"A walk?" Chen Junyu didn't think much of it and simply said, "Sure, but Uncle Qiao, do you think I should leave my things at home first?"
If you were allowed inside and saw Zhang Lin and Xi Xi alone in a room, wouldn't you be furious? ... Qiao Yu muttered to himself, he dared not let Chen Junyu into the room, what if it affected the relationship between Zhang Lin and his daughter?
"Junyu, didn't I say before that I can't accept these things?" Qiao Yu could only say, "Keep them for yourself, or find a wife in Hope City. You're the captain now, it won't be hard to find a wife. You should leave these things for your wife."
After saying that, Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he had made his point very clear. If Chen Junyu had any emotional intelligence, he would understand what he meant and then tactfully take the things back.
but……
If Chen Junyu had any emotional intelligence, he wouldn't have ended up like this. There are plenty of people who eventually achieve great things by being a simp, but he's one of the more unsuccessful simps. He's been simping for so long, and he hasn't even held the hand of his goddess yet...
So, instead of understanding the meaning behind Qiao Yu's words, he became a little anxious. "Uncle Qiao, since I brought the things, I won't take them away. I'll put them away for you first, and then we'll call Xixi and go for a walk together..."
As he spoke, he strode towards Qiao Yu's house, moving so fast that Qiao Yu couldn't stop him.
A moment later, he pushed open the door.
"Xixi, I'm here..."
Before pushing open the door, Chen Junyu put on what he thought was a very dashing smile, trying to present his best self to the goddess. However, after opening the door, he was stunned.
With a bang.
The bag and flowers in her hands fell to the ground.
He stood at the door, dumbfounded, too shocked to utter a single word.
Upon seeing this situation, Qiao Yu immediately realized something was wrong and quickly took two steps over to see what was happening inside the house.
We're doomed!
Inside the room, the two were already embracing.
Qiao Ruoxi sat on Zhang Lin's lap, her arms wrapped around his neck. She tilted her head back slightly, her eyes half-closed, and her alluring lips slightly pouted...
If the door hadn't been pushed open, the two of them would probably have been kissing by now.
Qiao Yu was shocked.
Although I'm trying to bring you two together, you're moving way too fast!
My father has only been gone for a few minutes!
At this moment, Qiao Yu's mood was not much better than Chen Junyu's.
