Chapter 47 Did you two secretly kiss behind my back?
Looking at the two of them, acting like a harmonious couple, Wen Jinzhou muttered, "This doesn't seem like an argument at all."
"Why do you always stay at my place at night?"
Wen Jinzhou muttered to himself as he raised his hand to greet the two of them.
Xie Zhizhi saw Wen Jinzhou waving his arm, "Battalion Commander Wen!"
"Zhizhi!"
Zhou Lin's gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, then he remained silent.
Xie Zhizhi had already walked to Wen Jinzhou's side. "Battalion Commander Wen, aren't you busy right now?"
"Hmm, nothing much this afternoon!"
Xie Zhizhi then invited, "Come on, let's go sit at our place for a while!"
Before Zhou Lin was home, Wen Jinzhou often delivered meals to Xie Zhizhi, but he never went inside the house.
Xie Zhizhi was the same; although she and Wen Jinzhou got along very well, she never invited Wen Jinzhou to come in and sit down.
Both of them had considered the potential for impropriety.
With Zhou Lin around, Xie Zhizhi dared to invite people, and Wen Jinzhou even dared to come to her door.
Wen Jinzhou followed the two up the stairs and, seeing what Zhou Lin was carrying, asked, "Where did you two go?"
“When I went out to sell things, Zhou Lin would take a break, and he would drive me and pick me up.”
Wen Jinzhou nodded, "That's good, otherwise it would be too far for you to transfer trains by yourself."
Then Wen Jinzhou thought of the house Zhou Lin had been allocated before, "Why don't you move to the house in the city? You and Zhou Lin can both move there, so you won't have to travel so far."
Most importantly, Wen Jinzhou has already moved into their one-bedroom apartment. This dormitory is very spacious for one person, but it seems a bit crowded for two people!
Anyway, he felt like he couldn't stand any longer standing here.
Wen Jinzhou thought that this might be the reason why Zhou Lin stayed at his place every day.
If we move to the city, the rooms will be bigger and the place will be more spacious, so we won't need to stay with someone else anymore!
Speaking of houses in the city, Xie Zhizhi looked melancholy. "The Xie family still hasn't brought their ancestral roots back to the old Xie family. They definitely haven't given up yet!"
"Who knows what kind of bad thing they're up to!"
"Let's wait and see about moving!"
Zhou Lin poured water for the two of them, and then heard "the roots of the Xie family," so he asked in confusion, "What roots of the Xie family?"
Wen Jinzhou reached out and took the water he was offered, asking curiously, "Didn't Zhizhi tell you?"
“Nephew Zhizhi, we found a woman from the family compound to help take care of him. We pay her fifteen yuan a month for her help.”
After Wen Jinzhou said those words, Xie Zhizhi sat on the stool, silently turned around, and faced away from Zhou Lin.
Based on the actions of the original owner and the Xie family, Xie Zhizhi could conclude that Zhou Lin was definitely a person with very firm beliefs.
Because if it were someone else, or even just someone else, it would mean killing someone.
But Zhou Lin in the book managed to endure it his whole life; he was a true ninja!
His ability to endure so much is simply due to the purification of his faith; he possesses a nobler character than ordinary people.
But such a person cannot tolerate the bullying of the weak.
Xie Zhizhi thought that Zhou Xie must also be considered weak in his eyes.
"Isn't your nephew being taken care of by your brother and sister-in-law?" Zhou Lin asked Xie Zhizhi, who had her back to him.
Xie Zhizhi drew circles on the stool while muttering, "I should have told you, but you didn't come home last night, so I didn't have time to tell you. Didn't I tell you that I argued with the Xie family because of my nephew's matter? And I felt that since they don't appreciate my kindness anyway, why should they get my things? So I went and got the house back!"
Wen Jinzhou: "What do you mean by not coming home at night?"
He looked at Zhou Lin, asking with his eyes: You're not going to use me as a cover, are you?
Zhou Lin gestured for him to stop talking and continued to ask Xie Zhizhi, "Your brother and sister-in-law moved out willingly?"
"What about your nephew's schooling?"
Xie Zhizhi was completely unfazed, saying, "They have no house to live in, and the couple doesn't have jobs, so they'll definitely go back to the countryside!"
"As for Zhou Xie, his parents don't want him, so why should he go to school!"
“I helped him get a leave of absence, and then… I paid someone else to take care of him.”
Zhou Lin was stunned after hearing this. He looked at Wen Jinzhou and asked, "You knew about all this?"
Wen Jinzhou nodded, "I know, Zhizhi and I did it together."
Then he pointed at Xie Zhizhi and said, "I thought Zhizhi told you."
Zhou Lin “…”
Zhou Lin looked at Xie Zhizhi, who had her back to him, and thought for a moment before saying, "Since they've returned the house, we don't need Zhou Xie anymore. Let your brother and sister-in-law take it with them!"
Zhou Lin never approved of adopting Zhou Xie from the beginning because he had no problem with fertility.
The success rate may be only half that of others, but it is definitely possible to give birth.
But Xie Zhizhi insisted, so he had no choice but to compromise.
Xie Zhizhi listened to his words but still didn't turn around. "Why should they take her away? I paid money to raise her, why should they get her for nothing?"
"Unless they give me my money back!"
When money was mentioned, Zhou Lin fell silent.
He knew better than anyone that he had sent every penny of his allowance over the past two years to Xie Zhizhi, and Xie Zhizhi had sent every penny to her brother and sister-in-law.
"Can……"
Xie Zhizhi raised her hand and said, "Don't even mention it. I gave away the money, and I will get it back through my own abilities."
"If you have a problem with it, then shut up!"
After saying that, Xie Zhizhi jumped up from the stool and said, "I'll go get the money I borrowed from you last time to buy clothes." She was talking to Wen Jinzhou.
Wen Jinzhou quickly replied, "No rush, I'm not short of money."
"It's okay, I've made money," Xie Zhizhi said, already entering the bedroom.
As soon as she entered, Wen Jinzhou whispered to Zhou Lin, "Didn't you say that Zhizhi wouldn't let you in?"
Why did she say you didn't come home at night?
Before Zhou Lin could speak, Wen Jinzhou had already begun to speak up for Xie Zhizhi, "Zhou Lin, let me tell you, you are very outstanding, but Zhizhi is also the most outstanding girl I have ever met. Don't let her down, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?" Zhou Lin sized up Wen Jinzhou. "Why are you so indignant?"
Aren't we friends?
Wen Jinzhou: "???"
"Shouldn't I feel indignant? She's such a good girl. If you wrong her, you're shameless, and you won't even let me feel indignant?" Wen Jinzhou retorted confidently, without a hint of guilt.
Zhou Lin's probing gaze vanished.
"That's not what you think it means!"
"Um?"
Zhou Lin glanced at the bedroom door, quickly grabbed Wen Jinzhou by the collar, pulled him closer, and whispered, "Xie Zhizhi is sick, she has mental problems. She probably didn't hear me knocking that night, so she mistakenly thought I didn't come home."
Wen Jinzhou "..."
Just as Zhou Lin finished speaking and was about to release the person, Xie Zhizhi came out of the bedroom with a wad of money in her hand, and then...
"Splash!" Xie Zhizhi was so startled that all the money in her hand fell to the ground.
Her jaw dropped in fright, and her mouth opened so wide it could swallow an egg.
"...You two..."
Zhou Lin quickly helped Wen Jinzhou smooth out his collar. "His collar is wrinkled, let me smooth it out for him."
As he spoke, he walked over to help Xie Zhizhi pick up the money.
Xie Zhizhi also squatted down to pick up the money, and then said to Zhou Lin, "I don't believe it!"
Zhou Lin immediately felt guilty.
Did she hear what I said?
Xie Zhizhi then asked, "Were you two secretly kissing behind my back?"
Zhou Lin “…”
