Li Yanhong couldn't help but pat her son: "Stop eating! This is your third bowl already. What's wrong? Can't you eat outside?"
After saying this, she was still quite worried.
"Tell me the truth, what on earth have you been doing out of town for so many days?"
"Your friend said you were on a business trip, and Li Xuan said you were attending a second-rate exchange conference."
"Where on earth have you been?"
A second-rate exchange conference?
Lin Zhan finally stopped eating noodles and looked at his wife in disbelief.
Su Lixuan's eyes were wandering. Don't look at her. How could she know that Li Yanhong could remember so clearly a lie she made up.
Lin Zhan shook his head and laughed, jokingly saying, "Yes, I went to the second-rate exchange conference."
"Let's exchange experiences so that we can become more idle second-rate people in the future."
Li Yanhong pretended to hit him.
Lin Zhan hid for a moment and touched his nose: "It was just a joke, why are you so anxious?"
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything illegal. I went out of town this time because someone asked me to do a favor."
"It's not a big deal. I was just helping a friend pick up his child who was stranded outside. I ran into some trouble along the way, so that's why I've been delayed for so long."
Li Yanhong felt angry when she saw his heartless look.
I got anxious and my eyes turned red.
She raised her hand but ended up slapping her son's arm. She said angrily, "You're still acting like you're not taking it seriously. Do you know that when you weren't back, people outside were saying you were dead?"
"It sounded like the truth. They said you were stabbed with a knife, and that you provoked a local tyrant and got beaten up by him."
As she spoke, Li Yanhong's nose felt sore.
"You're such a worrywart! You don't even know how to send me news more often. Li Xuan and I were almost scared to death at home."
Lin Zhan felt guilty: "I didn't think carefully before I left."
"I didn't expect that place to be so remote that there's no telephone service. Even getting to the post office requires a long hike up the mountain."
"So I thought I would wait until I was done with the work and then send the message back when I came back."
He didn't expect that after he hadn't shown up for a while, people at home started spreading rumors that he was dead.
Lin Zhan himself was at a loss as to whether to laugh or cry about this.
He asked himself why he was hated to such an extent, so why did a bunch of people curse him after just a few days of going out of town?
Su Lixuan's focus was not here, but...
"You said you encountered some trouble while doing something... What kind of trouble was it?"
He immediately asked about the key point that Lin Zhan wanted to get away with.
Lin Zhan froze visibly for a moment.
His eyes were wandering, and he didn't know how to start.
He didn't want to make up a lie to fool his wife, but he was also afraid that if he told the truth, he wouldn't be able to sleep in his bed tonight.
Su Lixuan: "It's hard to say?"
Lin Zhan: "...It's not hard to say."
"It's just...I told you not to be angry."
Nodding, Su Lixuan took a deep breath and prepared herself mentally: "Go ahead, I'm ready."
No matter what happens, as long as she doesn't do anything to let him down, she can bear it.
Even if Lin Zhan said that he became a eunuch like Lu Bo due to an accident, with her current psychological quality, she would never leave Lin Zhan.
Lin Zhan didn't know what horrible thoughts were going through her mind.
Sitting there like such a big lump, it actually makes people feel that he is weak, pitiful and helpless.
"I...I was almost set up by a witch."
"What?" Su Lixuan blinked. "How did it become a honey trap?"
Lin Zhan: "The place I went to is quite remote. As I said earlier, people in remote areas tend to stick together."
"After finding Qiao Guanlin's son, I originally planned to take him away directly."
"But who knew that the child's in-laws wouldn't let me go? They were quite stubborn and kept me there for dinner."
"I thought maybe they were reluctant to leave their children, so I agreed to stay for an extra meal so they could spend some time with the children."
Lin Zhan smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that his kindness almost got him into trouble.
"I didn't realize they put drugs in the food."
"Luckily, the food wasn't tasty, so I didn't eat much. So when I felt someone touching me, I pushed them away!"
When he mentioned the word 'pushed away', Lin Zhan raised his head and chest and spoke in a heavier tone to prove how innocent he was.
He has maintained this male virtue!
"After I pushed the person away, I discovered that the person touching me was the child's aunt, the youngest daughter of the child's maternal family."
"I felt dizzy at the time, but once I thought about it, I knew what had happened."
He spent all year hunting geese, but ended up getting his eyes pecked by a goose.
When he rescued Qiao Guanlin from the honey trap before, he laughed at Qiao Guanlin for being such a big boss and falling into such a trap.
Now that it was his turn, he finally understood what it meant to be caught off guard.
Li Yanhong was stunned when she heard this: "No, that girl has no shame?"
"People in such a remote place should be more conservative. Girls here wouldn't do something like this, so how come girls from that area are so bold?"
If you don't handle this kind of thing properly, your life will be ruined!
Lin Zhan: "She's also desperate."
"Her family used to be a big capitalist, but later on... you know, with their background, it's impossible for them to live the good life they once did."
"My elder sister got together with Qiao Guanlin to save herself and they even had a son. Qiao Guanlin probably took action for the sake of his son."
