Yong Zhixu was confused, his amber eyes staring at Chen Zui, as if saying: I asked you to save me, not to set a trap for me!
He opened his thin lips slightly, wanting to clarify immediately.
But Chen Zui got the better of him, his eyebrows dancing with joy as he continued to make up stories in all seriousness, "Of course I do. My new girlfriend is fair-skinned, beautiful, and has long legs. She's so pretty, isn't she, Third Brother?"
Afraid that the other person would not cooperate, Chen Zui tilted his head and winked at Yong Zhixu at an angle where Lin Suiying could not see.
He knew that the third brother was a strict person and didn't like to lie, but if he wanted to avoid the blind date, he had to take drastic measures, right?
Yong Zhixu also knew that this method would solve the current problem, but lying was wrong after all.
If you tell a lie, you will have to cover it up with more lies, which will make things more and more complicated.
So, he appreciated the kindness.
After a moment's hesitation, Yong Zhixu faced Lin Suiying's questioning gaze and spoke frankly, "Minister Lin, actually, I..."
"You're actually lying to me, right?" Lin Suiying had an expression that said, 'I've seen through everything.'
If his son had a girlfriend, even a sow could climb a tree.
How much do you not want to get married?
Two years ago, in order to resist the family marriage arranged by his grandfather, he resigned from his job, moved into Tanzhe Temple, and decided to become a monk.
The grandfather and grandson were deadlocked for more than two months, and finally the old man compromised and canceled the engagement.
In the past two years, the old man's health has gradually weakened, and his desire to see his grandson get married has become stronger and stronger, so he arranged a blind date.
The first few times, my son was just perfunctory about going, but later he just stopped going.
He is usually a very dignified and polite person, but in this matter, he is so rebellious that it is outrageous.
But she didn't know why.
She asked all his childhood friends, but no one knew the answer.
Lin Suiying feels guilty towards her only child.
Between home and country, she chose country, and thus missed her son's growth...
The eagle-like woman couldn't help but have red eyes. She tilted her head and her gaze fell on Chen Zui, wanting him to persuade her son.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zui misunderstood and thought that he was going to blame him, and thought to himself: It's over!
He decisively took the initiative and said, "Okay, I admit that I lied. Third Brother really doesn't have a girlfriend..."
He leaned close to Lin Suiying's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "But he has a girl he likes. Look, she lives across the street."
Lin Suiying turned around and looked in the direction he said.
In the clean and elegant courtyard of the villa opposite, there stood a girl in white clothes with her eyes covered with red silk, holding a Tang Dynasty sword that gleamed with cold light.
In front of her stood several tall foreign women, each with a small basket of apples at their feet.
Through the hollow copper wall, Lin Suiying couldn't see what the girl looked like clearly, she only saw her moving.
He took a half step back with his right leg, slightly bent his knees, and got into a ready position.
Then, the foreign women in front of her started throwing apples at her.
The girl turned her wrist, and the sharp Tang sword in her hand also moved.
As fast as a meteor or lightning, it drew a frosty and sharp sword flower in the air.
"Swish, swish, swish--" The apple thrown into the air was cut sharply by her at an invisible speed, and fell to the ground like rain.
The foreign women threw quickly, and the girl in white cut even faster.
In a blink of an eye, the small baskets of apples were empty.
On the ground, all the apples were cut in half, and not a single one was intact.
Her swordsmanship is precise and her demeanor is heroic, just like a killer or heroine in a martial arts drama.
Chen Zui gave a thumbs up and praised: "Excellent knife skills!"
Lin Suiying: “…”
The knife skills are indeed superb, but that’s not the point, right?
In a voice that only the two of them could hear, she asked Chen Zui, "Are you telling the truth? What's her name, and how old is she?"
Chen Zui can answer this question.
He pulled Lin Suiying a few meters away and, in a lower voice, enthusiastically told her Tang Xili's name, her relationship with Zhou Zhou, what Yong Zhixu said when he first met her, and how he stood up for her when they met again.
Finally, he glanced at Yong Zhixu meaningfully, "I was wondering why he ended up living here out of the blue. So this is what's going on."
Yong Zhixu: “?”
(What was it originally like?)
He was far away and didn't hear what Chen Zui muttered, but he heard the last sentence clearly.
And the next moment, he met his mother's half-believing, half-doubting, yet meaningful gaze.
What's so unclear about this? The pit Chen Zui dug is related to Tangxi Pear.
This bastard!
Yong Zhixu thought for a moment and explained with a universal sentence, "Things are not as he said..."
Chen Zui interrupted him and winked at Lin Suiying ambiguously, "We understand, it's not what I said, right, Aunt Lin?"
The tone of voice sounds like an attempt to cover up something.
Lin Suiying nodded with a complicated expression, and was not willing to comment on this matter...
There is no doubt that the girl is very outstanding and has great skills. She also owns a 3,000-square-meter detached villa in the Third Ring Road, so her family background must be good.
But...as her husband, there shouldn't be any rebellious period after this, right?
She walked up to Yong Zhixu and patted his shoulder with a heavy face. "You don't have to go on a blind date. Your mother will explain to your grandfather, but..."
Lin Suiying hesitated to speak.
My son has always been a man of his own ideas...
Seeing that she had misunderstood something, Yong Zhixu felt it necessary to clarify it now, "Mom, don't listen to his nonsense."
"He didn't say anything." Lin Suiying covered up for Chen Zui. After a moment of silence, she sighed, "Xu'er, you..."
She thought of the scene of Tangxi Li chopping fruit, her eyes filled with sympathy, "You... if you have nothing to do, why not sign up for a martial arts class."
Afraid that if she said more, her son, who had finally found a girl he liked, would back off, Lin Suiying chose to stop there and got into the car with the special police.
When the car passed Yong Zhixu, she rolled down the window and said seriously, "Mom, I'm not kidding. You must sign up for the class!"
Chen Zui, standing by, bared his teeth and laughed, "Sign up for the class, hahahaha... I'm dying of laughter... Minister Lin has a bit of a comedic talent..."
Watching the car drive away, Yong Zhixu's eyes fell on Chen Zui, who was laughing so hard that he was bent over backwards. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked intimidating without being angry. "What rumors are you making up?"
Chen Zui's laughter choked, and he stood at attention like a primary school student, saluting, "Third brother, I swear, I didn't say anything!"
Yong Zhixu opened his mouth and wanted to re-examine the case.
Chen Zui didn't give him a chance and pushed him into the car without saying anything. "Hey, Third Brother, it's rare that you don't have any plans today. Yunchuan will be having surgery soon. Can we get together again?"
