Luo Qingming froze, her knuckles still slightly bent, her eyes filled with shock.
He hadn't expected that Qin Yushen already knew about him.
He even openly refers to himself as his brother-in-law in front of others.
He... was somewhat at a loss.
As he stood there in a daze, a slender, fair hand with distinct knuckles landed on his shoulder and patted him.
"So shy, quite different from your sister's personality."
Qin Yushen, unlike his usual cold and aloof demeanor, smiled slightly as he spoke to Luo Qingming.
Of course, one must speak kindly and gently.
His wife's younger brother, his brother-in-law, is someone you can't afford to offend.
When Lin Xiaoxiao told me on the phone that she had found her younger brother, I could feel her joy even through the phone line, which is enough to prove that Lin Xiaoxiao values this younger brother very much.
Besides, the brother-in-law looks so much like his wife.
Qin Yushen seemed to have extended his affection to everything related to the house.
Luo Qingming called out softly, "Brother-in-law."
Qin Yu hummed in agreement, then looked at Huo Jing beside him and nodded in greeting.
He then said to Luo Qingming, "Once we find your sister, we can have a proper reunion."
When Lin Xiaoxiao was mentioned, Luo Qingming nodded hurriedly, now only hoping that her brother-in-law could find her sister as soon as possible.
Qin Yushen did not stay in Peach Blossom Village for long. He exchanged a few words with Luo Qingming and then drove away.
After he left, the villagers of Peach Blossom Village surrounded Luo Qingming and Huo Jing.
Everyone was incredibly enthusiastic.
"I heard he was the child adopted by the Luo family in Wangzi Village. He had a miserable life, but unexpectedly he found his own sister and even gained a brother-in-law who was a deputy regimental commander. He's really lucky." A female educated youth said with envy.
"Wanwan, isn't your sister your parents' biological daughter? How come you have an extra brother?" asked a female educated youth who was close to Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan wore a fake, business-like smile, her face was taut, and her eyes betrayed a complex mix of emotions.
Shock, jealousy, resentment...
She couldn't understand how Lin Xiaoxiao knew she wasn't his biological daughter and that she had a younger brother.
What annoyed her most was that Lin Xiaoxiao had also found her younger brother.
How lucky I am!
Lin Wanwan frowned in annoyance, looking in the direction the jeep had left, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.
Undeniably, upon seeing Qin Yushen, a deep sense of regret welled up within her.
Huo Jing is not bad-looking, in fact, one could say he is handsome and rugged, but he is just an ordinary villager who doesn't even own a proper house.
Qin Yushen drove a Jeep, looking imposing, and his appearance was beyond reproach; she had never seen anyone more handsome than him.
Comparing the two, Qin Yushen is definitely more successful.
"Lin Xiaoxiao was picked up by my family." Lin Wanwan deliberately emphasized the word "picked up," as if she was expressing something or comparing something.
The woman said "Oh," and added, "I found it."
Lin Wanwan suddenly felt a strange sense of balance.
Lin Xiaoxiao, so what if you're the regimental commander's wife? You're just a lowly child picked up from a trash can, who's been working like a slave in my house for over ten years.
Perhaps your parents were also people of low social status.
No matter what, I am a woman destined to foresee the future. I have loving parents, an older brother, and a younger brother.
You will never be as good as me.
Suddenly, the female educated youth exclaimed, "Wanwan, Comrade Lin's younger brother and Comrade Huo are so close?"
Everyone in the educated youth compound knew that Lin Wanwan liked Huo Jing.
Whenever Huo Jing went down the mountain, he would follow him every day.
Lin Wanwan looked in that direction and only saw Huo Jing and Luo Qingming leaving hand in hand. Her brows furrowed slightly.
Huo Jing is the future richest man. Huo Jing and Luo Qingming have a good relationship. Luo Qingming is also Lin Xiaoxiao's younger brother. So, rounding up, doesn't that mean Huo Jing and Lin Xiaoxiao also have a good relationship?
no!
Lin Wanwan angrily chased after him.
"Huo Jing," she called out in dissatisfaction.
Huo Jing seemed not to hear him and continued walking without stopping.
Luo Qingming, who was standing next to Lin Wanwan, gave her a strange look, but Huo Jing pretended not to hear and didn't say anything.
The two men's arrogant attitude almost made Lin Wanwan furious.
Lin Wanwan bullied Lin Xiaoxiao since childhood and was spoiled by Xu Fen as she grew up, so her personality is naturally not good. In the past few months, she has established a charming persona in front of Huo Jing.
Now, provoked by Lin Xiaoxiao, he is burning with rage.
When her temper flared up, she grabbed Luo Qingming's arm, trying to shake him off.
"Who let you get close to Huo Jing? He's mine."
"Your sister is a slut, and you are a slut too."
Huo Jing's expression changed, and he stepped forward to shield Luo Qingming behind him, looking at his face with concern, "How are you? Is anything bothering you?"
After taking the medicine given by Lin Xiaoxiao, Luo Qingming's complexion improved a lot, but recovery would still take time.
Now, when Lin Wanwan suddenly tugged at him, his heart skipped a beat, and he was still somewhat shaken.
He touched his chest and shook his head. "I'm fine."
Seeing that his complexion was still normal, Huo Jing breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Lin Wanwan with her stern expression, his face darkening.
He was ruthless with his words, saying, "Who the hell is yours? Have you no shame?"
Do I know you?
"If you have a foul mouth, go wash it in the river. If you keep acting like a jerk, believe me, I'll slap you across the face."
Huo Jing had absolutely no liking for this educated youth whose eyes were full of ambition and scheming, and who was as annoying as a fly.
Don't think he doesn't know that she openly or secretly wants him to do chores for her.
Although I don't know what she wants from me.
But Huo Jing didn't want to pay any attention to her.
