"Who's talking about me behind my back?"
Lin Chen sneezed three times early in the morning. He looked at the time and got up helplessly.
He had always had the habit of waking up early, but he had slept too late last night, so he planned to wake up after 10 o'clock today. It would be good if he could make it to the Mu family's lunch.
These three sneezes came at the right time. Although it was not yet 10 pm, it was about time. After he washed up, Mu Wanqiu's car was about to pick him up.
Sure enough, Mu Wanqiu's car stopped in front of the door less than five minutes after he had settled everything.
Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, and her gray-black sportswear made her look handsome. She walked towards him with breakfast in her hand.
Lin Chen took the breakfast and started eating. Mu Wanqiu had brought him fried dumplings. They tasted good, but there weren't many of them. According to her, they were just to fill his stomach, so he wouldn't go hungry.
Watching Lin Chen eat, Mu Wanqiu started to size up the surroundings.
Lin Chen's house was a little dilapidated. It was an old house from the 1990s. The road had not been repaired for a long time. There was a developer who wanted to develop this place, but because of the compensation for demolition, they could not reach an agreement, so the matter was left unsettled.
"Lin Chen, why did you turn off your TV? Didn't you say that you were going to buy clothes in the morning?”Mu Wanqiu waited for Lin Chen to finish his meal. When she saw that his clothes had faded from washing, she immediately pursed her lips.
Lin Chen yawned and wiped his mouth.""It was too late last night, so I slept in.”
"Fortunately, I sent your photo to my best friend. She's a first-class expert in the fashion industry. Now, she's helping you pick out clothes. Let's go.”Mu Wanqiu said.
Lin Chen laughed." Why are you dressed so well? Are you so afraid that your parents will have a bad impression of me?" It's not like it's new for a rich girl to like a poor boy. It's been so many years, and it's been appearing on the news and television frequently. Your family is still so conservative.”
"Fine, fine. If my grandfather makes things difficult for you later, I won't help you.”Mu Wanqiu pouted.
"Will it make things difficult for me? Then I won't go.”Lin Chen pretended to be very afraid.
Mu Wanqiu rolled her eyes at him." Get in the car, Lin. Zhuan. Jia!" she said.”
"Your begging attitude is wrong." Lin Chen said mischievously.
"Then how do you want me to beg?" Mu Wanqiu knew that Lin Chen was joking with her." Should I buy a bouquet of roses and kneel on one knee?”
"That's good. That's a good suggestion.”Lin Chen smiled.
"Get in the car. You'll be late.”Mu Wanqiu pulled Lin Chen to the backseat and said," I'm telling you, try not to talk later. I've already told Grandpa not to make things difficult for you."”
"Alright." Lin Chen agreed. One fence, three stakes. There was still a long way to go in the future. It was not a bad thing to make friends with an old general.
After half an hour of driving, Lin Chen saw a checkpoint guarded by soldiers.
Although there was a pass in front of the car window, the driver was still asked to stop and check his pass. After all, some of the big shots from the Chinese army lived inside, so he had to go through this procedure.
"I'm really sorry. It's my duty. Please forgive me, Miss Mu.”The soldier carefully looked at it once, then handed it back and saluted.
"It's fine. Sorry for the trouble." Mu Wanqiu nodded at the soldier and the driver continued driving.
"The checkpoints are a little tight. Don't take offense. Even if the big shots from the news broadcast come here by car, they have to see their identification documents. After all, these are the old generals of the Republic who are retiring here. If anything happens, it will be a pain we can't bear.”Mu Wanqiu said.
Lin Chen nodded. He could understand.
An old general of this rank was of great significance to the country.
Along the way, they encountered three more checkpoints. When they arrived at the entrance of a residential area that was like a paradise, it was already 11:30.
"Mu Wanqiu, I've finally caught you.”
"Grandpa Qiu, we're taking a walk." Mu Wanqiu looked at a white-haired old man warming up by the roadside and smiled.
"Don't try to get close to your Grandpa Qiu. I'm here to catch you.”The white-haired old man said," Every time you come to eat, your grandfather will come and steal my things. This time, he stole even more. I was wondering if I saw a ghost. So it was you who brought someone to freeload!
I suffered a huge loss. He stole my hen that can lay eggs for me, and he also picked all the ripe tomatoes. Let me tell you, the one I can't stand the most is my morning pepper. My favorite is morning pepper. He took it even if he doesn't eat spicy ones! Isn't he afraid of spicy food?"
Mu Wanqiu's face darkened. She got out of the car and smiled apologetically."I'm really sorry, Grandpa Qiu. I'll go and talk to him. How could he be like this? He's hurting your feelings too much.”
"Hmph, don't play dumb with me. Come with me and let the morning pepper kill that old bastard.”Old Master Qiu was so angry that his face turned red.
Lin Chen's mouth twitched. This old man was interesting.
"Grandpa Qiu, I really can't accompany you for dinner today. I have something important to do.”Mu Wanqiu hurriedly hid in the car, but she could not escape Old Master Qiu's grasp." He stole my vegetables, so I won't let his favorite granddaughter eat with him. He'll be so upset unless he beats me in chess or marksmanship. I'll let you go."”
"Grandpa Qiu, you are a professional level chess player, and your marksmanship was even a sharpshooter back then. How can you compete with him? Alright, I'll take a look at him and sit here with you. Let's go fishing.”Mu Wanqiu blinked her eyes and tried to act cute.
"No, I want to play Chinese chess! I want to play with guns!" Old Qiu was as stubborn as a bull.
