Chapter 15: Glowing White, Shining Black



From her, Lin Jingshu learned that after returning home, Mrs. Lin was not only despised, but was also forced to live in the storage room.

The clothes were too smelly to wear and were still surrounded by flies outside.

Even so, she had to endure the nausea and wash it clean.

After all, making a piece of clothing is not easy. It takes three years to be new, three years to be old, and another three years to mend it.

Lin Qiaoqiao's life was not easy either. The system said that she got some folk remedy from somewhere and applied it on her face.

Her face, which had no rashes originally, was now covered with red rashes. She hid at home and didn't dare go out, not even to see Han Wenhan.

It’s not easy to come all the way here, so Lin Yongkang invites Gu Chengze to dinner.

Gu Chengze was afraid of disturbing them and declined politely.

Lin Jingshu smiled and said, "Brother Gu, please stay. My mother's cooking skills are very good. You will definitely like it."

Seeing her smiling in the sunshine, he couldn't help but stop and walk away. His breathing became rapid, and the moment his eyes met hers, his heart skipped a beat.

He quickly glanced sideways to hide his inner thoughts, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth revealed his inner feelings.

"Okay, thank you for your help, auntie."

Ding Xiangzhi also asked Grandma Wu to stay for dinner.

Grandma Wu waved her hand and said, "I still have the meal I made this morning. If you don't eat it now, it will go bad. Don't worry about me."

As neighbors for many years, Grandma Wu has always helped Ding Xiangzhi, and he has long regarded her as his own family member.

Even if I failed to keep the person, I never forgot to send him a portion of the meal I had prepared.

Although Gu Chengze usually has a cold face, he is humble in front of his elders, which makes Ding Xiangzhi and Lin Yongkang nod repeatedly.

Before leaving, Gu Chengze talked about the main purpose of this visit.

"I've asked someone to take care of Cai. He won't have a chance to come back, so you can rest assured."

Hearing this, the heavy stone in Ding Xiangzhi's heart finally fell.

When Director Cai was taken away, she was afraid that someone would secretly help to release him, so she mentioned it to the boss when she called him. She didn't expect Gu Chengze to make a special trip for this matter.

"That's great. Thank you."

"You're welcome, Auntie. Lin Shan and I are like brothers. His sister is my sister. If one of my family members is bullied, it's only natural for me to protect them."

These words touched Ding Xiangzhi's heart, and he liked him even more. He was really a good young man.

Lin Jingshu didn't expect that it was because of her, and thanked her sincerely.

Hearing the little girl's voice, Gu Chengze's lips curled up slightly.

After he left, Ding Xiangzhi held her daughter's soft hand and said, "I feel relieved now."

Lin Mu watched the car drive away, and said with some envy, "I wish I had joined the army earlier."

There is also a chance to drive a military vehicle, which is much cooler than his truck.

Lin Yongkang knew what he was thinking at a glance and slapped him, "You're just dreaming. I asked you to go, but you refused. Now that you have a stable job, you're thinking about nonsense again."

"I'm just talking, I'm not thinking about anything else."

Lin Mu rubbed his head and argued, "Besides, I'm only twenty-three this year, still a child."

"I think you're itchy."

Lin Yongkang took off his shoes and was about to beat him, but seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Mu ran away.

The father and son were chasing each other in the yard.

Ding Xiangzhi smiled helplessly and shook his head, "Let's go inside."

These two guys love to play around.

At night the couple lay in bed.

"With Xiao Gu's words, I finally feel at ease."

"Now I can sleep peacefully."

Ding Xiangzhi was previously worried that Director Cai was deeply entrenched, and if he were to come back to power, their family would not be able to withstand his anger.

"Speaking of which, if Xiao Gu wasn't a little older, she and our Jing Shu would be a perfect match."

If this really happens, my daughter won’t have to worry about her livelihood.

If it means marrying into the husband's family and working like a slave, they would rather marry a live-in son-in-law.

Marrying a daughter is different from marrying a wife.

You don’t have to worry about getting a wife, they will give you whatever she wants.

It's not possible to marry a girl off. You have to carefully observe the man's character and family background.

Ding Xiangzhi talked for a while but heard no response. She got up and saw that Lin Yongkang had fallen asleep. She muttered, "He fell asleep so quickly."

------

The day of the social gathering soon arrived, and Lin Jingshu was pulled out of bed by her mother before she even woke up.

Lin Jingshu sat up and yawned, "Mom, what time is it?"

"It's five o'clock. Get up, pack your things, eat something and then leave."

Ding Xiangzhi opened the door and a cool breeze came in. "Your second brother is unreliable. I wonder where he has gone again."

When talking about his second son, Ding Xiangzhi got a headache. He had clearly agreed that he would go to the social gathering, but when he got to the party, he changed his mind and said that he was still young and there was no need to rush.

Looking at the two bachelors, Ding Xiangzhi felt overwhelmed.

Whatever happens, she puts all her thoughts on her little girl and doesn't expect to find the right one at once. It's also good to make friends.

When Lin Jingshu finished packing, it was almost time, so she refused to ride her bike and walked out.

The height of the 28-inch bicycle was not too high for her, but she was worried that she would accidentally fall into the mud ditch and dirty her new clothes.

Lin Yonglan was already standing at the door of the Women's Federation waiting, looking at her watch from time to time and pacing back and forth anxiously.

The social gathering is about to begin, but my niece is still nowhere to be seen.

"Aunt!"

Lin Jingshu was sweating profusely, and her hair, which was carefully tied up when she went out, was a little messy.

"Ouch, what happened?"

Lin Jingshu had a bitter look on her face. Halfway through her journey, she met a dog that for some reason was chasing her madly. She was so scared that she ran away and almost became late.

"Is there still time?"

"There's still time. I'll take you to wash your face."

Lin Jingshu nodded hurriedly. She couldn't wait to wash her hands as they were all dirty.

"Director Lin, are you here? Director Wang wants you to come over." A young comrade ran over and said to Lin Yonglan.

"You go ahead, auntie. I can wash it myself."

"Okay then. Remember to go to the small auditorium in the back later."

Lin Yonglan said this and left in a hurry.

Lin Jingshu found the sink and saw a piece of soap next to it, which was probably prepared by the government for the employees of the unit.

She carefully rubbed in circles, cleaning the dirt off her hands.

"Have you heard? There's an outstanding military comrade coming today. I heard he's very handsome."

There were voices coming from around the corner.

The washbasin is not far from the toilet, so there must be someone inside.

"Really?" Another equally excited female voice rang out, "I need to prepare well later."

Lin Jingshu was a little curious about their conversation. How good-looking must this guy be to attract so many people's attention.

As a face control, she also became curious.

"Hey, isn't this Lin Jingshu?"

Lin Jingshu looked up and saw that the person in front of her looked familiar.

"Host, she is Lin Qiaoqiao's good friend and your fake sister, but you two have broken up."

At the system's reminder, Lin Jingshu recalled the person's name in her mind.

"Feng Qi?"

Feng Qi folded his arms, raised his eyebrows and looked at her arrogantly. Looking at her fair little face, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.

They are both women, but why is Lin Jingshu so white and I so dark?
