Medical Examiner Can Revive the Dead-Chapter 413 - 463: Do You Like Him?
Lin Rui's mother was a bit surprised by Lin Rui's reaction.
She said quite naturally:
"Didn't you hear the call Zhang Feng just made?"
"That was his daughter calling him, right? This kid looks even younger than you, does he already have such a big daughter?!"
"His daughter misses him, didn't you hear?"
As for Lin Rui's mother, given her age and gender.
Having such a gossiping tongue is quite normal.
But Lin Rui was left stunned by her mother's words.
"What do you mean, such a young daughter? What do you mean his daughter misses him? Mom, how can your hearing be so good?!"
However, Lin Rui seemed to have realized something and responded;
"Oh~"
"You're talking about Xue'Er, right."
Lin Rui's mother was momentarily puzzled and asked, "Who's Xue'Er? His daughter's name is Xue'Er? Do you know he has a daughter?"
Lin Tian looked at his mother and said with a smile:
"Mom, Xue'Er is not his biological daughter!"
"What?"
Lin Rui's mother was shocked upon hearing this, her expression exaggerated to an indescribable extent, and she urgently asked:
"Did his ex-wife cheat on him?"
"Pfft—"
Lin Rui felt like she was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Goodness, is this really how middle-aged women's brains work?
Lin Rui quickly waved her hand to deny it.
And then, she explained the entire process of Mu Xue'Er's case of finding her mother in D City to her own mother.
Since this wasn't a secret and it concerned Zhang Feng's reputation, Lin Rui didn't hold back and said everything she knew.
She explained everything clearly to her mother.
After hearing it all, Lin Rui's mother suddenly understood:
"Oh~"
"So that's how it is?"
"So, it seems it's indeed my misunderstanding about Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang is really a good kid, isn't he..."
"No, wait!"
Lin Rui thought she had explained everything clearly, but suddenly her mother had a change of heart and said:
"There are so many police officers, why does this child only call Zhang Feng 'dad'?"
"You said that child's mother is a big star, then that child's mom must be very beautiful, right?"
Indeed, she is very beautiful.
But!
"Mom! What are you even thinking?" Lin Rui was getting nervous, seeing the blazing curiosity in her mother's eyes.
"You don't think Zhang Feng is helping the kid just because her mom is beautiful, do you?"
"Isn't he?" Lin Rui's mother reflexively questioned, almost making Lin Rui jump up as she hastily said:
"Mom! Do you even hear what you're saying?"
"Do you really think of Zhang Feng as that kind of person?"
"Mom, I can responsibly tell you that Zhang Feng is not that kind of person! You can't just say that recklessly!"
"Zhang Feng is so handsome, lots of pretty girls like him, he wouldn't do something so unprincipled."
"Besides, he's very nice, quite capable, and has a strong presence, he..."
"Wait, wait, wait!" Seeing her daughter, Lin Rui, getting carried away.
Lin Rui's mother quickly interrupted with a skeptical look on her face, seriously saying:
"Ruirui, be honest with mom, do you like Zhang Feng?"
"Pfft!" Suddenly, Lin Rui's face turned crimson.
Her heart was pounding.
She nervously replied:
"Mom, why do you ask that?"
Inside, she was endlessly anxious, oh no, oh no, am I losing control again, am I going to expose myself?
How am I going to explain this to my mom!
Of course, Lin Rui's mother wouldn't let it go.
Once suspicion is born, she's already lost trust in her mother's heart.
"Answer me honestly!"
Looking at her mother's serious gaze, Lin Rui was so nervous she was curling her toes.
"I... I..."
If I say I don't like him, wouldn't I be lying? We've already been through so much, and I say I don't like Zhang Feng, wouldn't that be unfair to him?
So that's not an option.
But if I say I like him, wouldn't that make me look like a mistress in my mom's eyes? She would kill me!
So that's not an option either!
Ah—!
What should I do?
Just when Lin Rui was at her wit's end.
The one who rescued her was Zhang Feng again.
"Knock-knock-knock" came a dull knocking sound at the door.
Making the mother and daughter in the bathroom freeze.
Then, they heard Zhang Feng's voice:
"Director Lin, are you in there? Hurry up, it seems we have another job to do!"
Upon hearing these words, Lin Rui felt relieved and shouted:
"I'm here! I'll be right out!"
Then, she said to her mother:
"Work is urgent, mom, let me go to work!"
"We can talk about it when I get back!"
After saying this, without minding her mother's protests, she opened the bathroom door and dashed out.
Looking at Zhang Feng standing in front of her, she loudly said:
"Zhang Feng, work is urgent, let's go now! Hurry up, let's go!"
Then, she dashed to the entrance to change clothes and was ready to leave.
Lin Rui's mother stood in the bathroom, while Zhang Feng stood at the doorway.
They looked at each other, feeling quite awkward.
In fact, when Ma Xiaotong told Zhang Feng his mother and daughter were whispering.
Zhang Feng eavesdropped a little, listening to their conversation.
What he heard was astonishing, was Lin Rui's mother's train of thought really this bizarre?
Goodness.
So Zhang Feng decided to interrupt.
Otherwise, who knows how he would be depicted in Lin Rui's mother's words.
This is how this scene came about.
To ease the awkwardness, Zhang Feng took the initiative to speak:
"Auntie, thank you for your hospitality, but I'm afraid I can't enjoy it anymore, I just got a call about an important job waiting for me."
Lin Rui's mother replied with an awkward cough and said:
"Ah, work is important, work is important, no problem, just remember to come back after you're done, I'll tidy up the place for you."
"Thank you, Auntie..."
"Hey, Zhang Feng, let's go!" Lin Rui seemed worried about lingering too long.
Urgently waving at Zhang Feng at the door, telling him to leave quickly.
Eager to escape her mother's "clutches."
Zhang Feng gave Lin Rui's mother an awkward smile, then turned to leave, not forgetting to give Ma Xiaotong a signal, and she followed along.
Under Lin Rui's mother's goodbye, the three finally left this "troubled place."
"Phew—" Lin Rui let out a breath and said: "It's finally over... My mom was too tormenting."
Then she turned to Zhang Feng and asked: "By the way, whose call did you take? What work do we have now?"
This was just an excuse Zhang Feng came up with.
But just as he was about to deny it, his phone rang again.
Hearing this ringtone, Zhang Feng smiled wryly and said:
"Work? Here it comes."
