Transmigration: Flirted with My Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 701 - 700: It’s Just a Dog
Chapter 701: Chapter 700: It’s Just a Dog
Su Yuncheng was a man with eight hundred faces.
In the eyes of his elders, he was well-behaved and steady, with good grades, commendable military achievements, and an excellent job. He was good in every respect.
To most of his peers, he was the grim Reaper King Yama, the last person you’d ever want to meet.
In the eyes of Lin Huaizhou and Sie Yuguo... Su Yuncheng? Wasn’t he just a dog?
Lin Huaizhou glared at Old Dog Su, his back teeth almost ground flat.
Having a social gathering in front of his parents, how was this different from being coerced at gunpoint to attend one?
There was still a difference.
The one holding the machine gun might not fire at Commander Lin, but Aunt Lin would definitely smack him.
"There’s a social gathering? You must go."
Aunt Lin had the final say.
She was almost worried to death about Lin Huaizhou’s bachelor status. Despite that, he himself was in no rush, turning tail and running at the sight of female comrades faster than any dog could leap.
"No, Mom," Lin Huaizhou felt he still could salvage the situation, "I have to go to Sui City at the end of the month. Wouldn’t attending a social gathering now be wasting those girls’ time..."
"Don’t try to fool me. Your assignment won’t take more than half a month in total, what’s there to delay?" Aunt Lin gave him a glare, then turned to Mr. Lin saying, "You deal with him."
Mr. Lin was never an authoritarian, even when disciplining his children he preferred to offer choices—
"Are you going to walk over there by yourself, or shall I tie you up and take you?"
Lin Huaizhou: "I’ll go with Sie Yuguo."
If you can’t beat fate, might as well drag more people down with you.
Mr. Lin nodded in satisfaction and added, "Daughter, you go with your brother."
"Me?"
Lin Nianhe widened her eyes and subconsciously clutched at Su Yuncheng’s sleeve, "Dad, I’m getting engaged."
"I know you’re getting engaged," Mr. Lin said with a hint of frustration, "I’m asking you to watch over your brother. When he and Sie Yuguo went to the last social gathering, the two of them hid in a corner and played Go the entire evening."
"Oh, that’s interesting." Lin Nianhe perked up, "I’m up for that job!"
Ah, a social gathering, a place that sounded like it was brimming with juicy gossip.
Three days later—
"Lin Huaizhou, you’re nothing but a dog."
Sie Yuguo took off his gloves, glancing sideways at Lin Huaizhou with a mocking snicker that sounded like rat nibbling on rice.
Lin Huaizhou wore an expression of resignation, "Curse at Su Yuncheng, he’s the one who suggested it, otherwise how do you think my mom even knew about it?"
Aunt Lin was busy with work all day, who had the time to bother with such social events? ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
If it wasn’t for Su Yuncheng bringing it up, Aunt Lin probably wouldn’t have remembered the social gathering even after three years had passed.
"He’s also a dog."
Sie Yuguo lifted his eyelid slightly, his gaze slowly shifting to the happily chuckling Lin Nianhe.
He suddenly smiled.
With a swift move, he pulled away from Lin Huaizhou and approached Lin Nianhe, pushing her forward and muttering:
"Xiao He, since you’re here already, why not dance too? You and Su Yuncheng aren’t engaged yet, he’s not here today, it’s good for a young girl like you to make more friends!"
Lin Nianhe: "...?"
He seemed to be retaliating in a very peculiar way.
When it came to strategizing, Sie Yuguo was best at rapid, blitzkrieg tactics.
Before Lin Nianhe could react, he had already pushed her in front of a handsome man, "Come on, Xiao He, this is..."
Before he could finish, Lin Huaizhou caught up.
"Sie Yuguo! You’re worse than a dog! Let go!"
Sie Yuguo was the first to be demoted a level in the Three-dog Group.
The two of them exchanged brief glances and then, as though they had reached a tacit understanding, started to quarrel and eventually to fight.
The sudden turn of events stunned everyone at the social gathering.
Lin Nianhe watched their clumsy performance, her lips curving into a smile.
Suddenly, a crisp "Daddy" reached Lin Huaizhou’s ears.
He knew that voice all too well—it was his sister’s.
So she was calling...
He exchanged a look with Sie Yuguo, and the two gradually stopped fighting, tugging at each other half-heartedly. No need for anyone else to intervene, they separated on their own.
Lin Huaizhou instinctively looked around, but did not see Comrade Old Lin.
An ominous premonition arose.
Lin Nianhe stepped forward, standing between them: "Had enough fighting?"
"Cough cough, sis, stay out of this," Lin Huaizhou knew he had been tricked by his sister, but couldn’t admit it, and had to brazen it out, "We need to clear things up today."
Sie Yuguo nodded in agreement: "Right, we can’t really get into it here. Lin Huaizhou, come outside with me, we’ll sort this out on the sports field."
Before Lin Huaizhou could speak, Lin Nianhe said: "Fighting during the New Year? Come on, do we have a phone here? Comrade, would you mind calling the Sie Family and the Lin Family and ask Uncle Sie and my father to come and settle this for them."
Lin Huaizhou: "..."
Sie Yuguo: "..."
Is she trying to break up the fight?
She is clearly out for our lives!
Seeing someone actually about to make the call in earnest, Lin Huaizhou quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, we’re just messing around."
Sie Yuguo chimed in: "Right, right, the get-together is the leadership’s care, we can’t let them down, continue, continue."
Lin Nianhe crossed her arms, a beaming smile as she watched them: "Are you really just messing around? Don’t scare me, I’m really timid."
"Just messing around, for real."
"No problem, no problem, sis, don’t be scared."
Lin Nianhe nodded as if taking them seriously: "Alright then, you two stop dawdling and get on with the socializing."
Lin Huaizhou: "..."
Sie Yuguo: "..."
"Go on then," Lin Nianhe urged, and pulled out a palm-sized notebook from her coat pocket, "Brother, Brother Yuguo, rest assured, I will record everything accurately and report in detail!"
"Report to who?"
"Of course, to Uncle Sie and dad."
"Do we really need to report this?"
"Hmm... why not?"
Seeing Lin Nianhe’s innocently smiling face, Lin Huaizhou and Sie Yuguo felt their scalps tingle.
The two men exchanged a look and silently turned towards the direction of the female comrades.
Sie Yuguo gritted his teeth: "Lin Huaizhou, the biggest mistake of your life was not messing things up between Xiao He and Su Yuncheng."
A perfectly good girl, and she’s been led astray in the blink of an eye!
Lin Huaizhou didn’t want to respond.
He felt his biggest mistake was agreeing to send his sister to Lan County.
Watching the two tall figures walk away, Lin Nianhe closed her notebook contentedly.
"I really am a little genius at breaking up fights."
She genuinely admired herself.
Lin Nianhe quietly moved to a corner and took small sips from a bottle of soda.
"Nianhe."
Suddenly, a haggard face with dark circles appeared in front of Lin Nianhe.
"Mommy!"
Lin Nianhe was startled and instinctively scooted back, nearly tumbling over the bench.
Ji Mingyi quickly grabbed her.
Once she was settled, Lin Nianhe asked, "What happened to you... just how big of a mistake did you make? How did Grandpa Ji beat you up like this?"
Lin Nianhe frowned, full of sympathy.
Ji Mingyi: "..."
Could he tell her that his dark circles were not from being beaten but from staying up all night?
