Before Su Muwan could speak, Qin Luo seemed to understand the meaning behind her silence.
After all, the other party didn’t know about the good deed he had done for her yesterday.
Perhaps right now, she was feeling very moved and surprised inside.
So.
Qin Luo said softly to Su Muwan, “Young lady, don’t worry. Long Dingtian truly wants to pledge his loyalty to us.”
“Yesterday, I already recounted your prestige before him.”
Prestige?? What prestige? Didn’t you slap him? Where does prestige come from?
Can’t you hope for my good?
A storm raged inside Su Muwan, but she couldn’t say anything to Qin Luo.
After all, he really was doing this for her sake, although… this kindness would likely make her die a horrible death.
Besides, what means had Qin Luo used to make Long Dingtian, the former head of the Long family in the previous life, join her ranks?
She definitely couldn’t ask about this now; she would have to wait until everyone left.
So, Su Muwan could only suppress the collapse in her heart. On the surface, she slightly curled her lips and smiled, saying, “President Long is thoughtful.”
Hearing this.
Long Dingtian finally felt relieved, but there was still one thing he was uneasy about.
That was whether Eldest Miss Su knew his request.
So, he looked at Su Muwan expectantly, hoping for an accurate answer.
But…
Hmm?
Why did Long Dingtian’s eyes contain three parts expectation, two parts nervousness, four parts fear, and one part disappointment?
Su Muwan was stunned inside. Could this little eye game really be so complicated??
Was there something else he wanted to ask?
What should I say??
On Qin Luo’s side, he saw Long Dingtian’s need, so he stepped forward, waved his hand, and said with a smile, “Long Dingtian, my young lady already knows your request.”
“As long as you are loyal and do practical work, my young lady will help you ascend to that throne!”
Su Muwan quickly turned to look at Qin Luo, her eyes wide: ??!
Wait, what do I know??? A throne? What throne?
Long Dingtian was completely relieved. He cupped his hands and bowed, loudly saying, “Thank you, Eldest Miss!”
Swish!
Su Muwan looked at Long Dingtian again.
Wait! What are you thanking me for!
Did I, the young lady, agree?!
Who can tell me what’s going on?!
Why can I not get a word in?!
At that moment.
Qin Luo leaned close to Su Muwan’s ear and whispered, “Young lady, after everyone leaves, I will explain the details to you.”
The warm breath brushed against her earlobe, tickling Su Muwan’s heart.
Her face turned red, and she quickly moved a step aside, then covered her left ear.
Wait, now is not the time to be shy!
Su Muwan snapped back to reality and immediately turned to glare fiercely at Qin Luo.
This guy really caused a pile of trouble outside!
Lin Wanrong saw that the dust had settled.
She also loudly congratulated, “Congratulations, Eldest Miss Su! Congratulations, Eldest Miss Su! With the help of the president of the Antique City Association, Eldest Miss Su’s rise to control the Su Family is just around the corner! We will follow Eldest Miss Su’s lead and charge into battle!”
No, no, you’re exaggerating too much.
In her previous life, why hadn’t Su Muwan noticed the strangeness in the flattering words of those around her?
One by one, they lifted her to the top of the pyramid, then when she was abandoned by everyone, they all disappeared without a trace.
Seeing that the situation was becoming too complex and changeable, Su Muwan also wanted to end this complicated farce quickly.
So, just as she was about to nod and let everyone leave.
“NO!!!!”
A passionate roar suddenly burst out.
Su Muwan was startled and looked over.
She saw.
Xiao Tian, who had been doubting himself all along, suddenly roared with bloodshot eyes.
Qin Luo was also startled and immediately rebuked, “Waste! What’s wrong with you? If you scare my Eldest Miss, you’ll answer for it!”
Su Muwan: …→_→
Lin Wanrong’s face also changed, and she looked at Xiao Tian with an unpleasant expression, “Xiao Tian, what exactly do you want? I’m already preparing to divorce you!”
“No, Wanrong, you can’t divorce me!”
Xiao Tian’s expression was bitter and pained. He clutched his chest and choked, “For these past five years, I have worked diligently and served your Lin Family.”
“I helped your Lin Group become a medium-scale enterprise in Jiang City. But you, how can you just…”
Before his voice faded.
Slap!
Lin Wanrong stepped forward angrily and slapped Xiao Tian hard, scolding, “What?! The Lin Group’s current scale is entirely due to my business acumen!”
“What does it have to do with a waste like you?!”
“If you say one more word, I’ll beat you until you can’t take care of yourself!”
Qin Luo stood beside Su Muwan, watching with great interest, and whispered a complaint, “Tsk tsk, this Xiao Tian is really pitiful.”
“How does he still put up with being beaten like this?”
Su Muwan also felt the same way. She nodded in agreement and said, “Exactly, I thought it was ridiculous back then, and now looking at it is even more…”
As they spoke, Su Muwan and Qin Luo both froze at the same time.
They looked at each other.
Qin Luo asked with suspicion, “Young lady?”
“Shut up and just watch the show.”
Su Muwan quickly cut him off, then turned her head and forced herself to stay calm as she looked at Xiao Tian.
Oh no, oh no, how did I subconsciously respond to him?
Qin Luo scratched his face and looked at Su Muwan with suspicion.
How strange? This big villain’s behavior seems different from the original?
According to the original, this big villain would directly curse at Xiao Tian, saying things like, “What’s there to pity? He’s just a useless live-in son-in-law. He got what he deserved. A waste like him pollutes the air just by dying.” Something along those venomous lines.
But now, instead… it’s strange…
Uncertain. Let’s observe again.
Qin Luo kept staring at Su Muwan with a suspicious gaze.
And Su Muwan kept her eyes fixed on Xiao Tian, forcing herself to stay calm under that burning stare.
T^T, stop looking at me, please!
If you keep looking, I’ll really break down!
I admit my behavior is a bit different from usual!
But!
Aren’t there sayings like!
My previous prickly demeanor was just a facade. In reality, I also want to be a good person!
Thinking this, Su Muwan turned her head, glared at Qin Luo, and scolded softly, “What are you looking at! If you keep looking, I’ll dig your eyes out!”
That’s more like it.
Qin Luo smiled slightly and looked away. “Yes, Eldest Miss.”
It seemed his suspicion was unfounded. This was indeed the big villain from the original.
Seeing that after being scolded, Qin Luo instead showed a relieved smile, Su Muwan was left with a feeling of helplessness inside.
Wait! What kind of preconceived impression is this!
She finds it strange when I act good, but feels relieved when I act bad??
Family, who can understand? The malice toward us villains these days is way too much!
Meanwhile, Xiao Tian was nearing the end of being slapped dozens of times.
Despite being beaten like this, he still resolutely didn’t fight back. He spoke seriously, “Wanrong! You can’t divorce me! Because Old Master Lin still needs me to treat him!”
“??!”
Lin Wanrong had just raised her hand but froze upon hearing this.
“My grandfather?”
“Needs you to treat him?”
Lin Wanrong felt like she had just heard something particularly laughable.
Xiao Tian nodded and said, “That’s right. If I’m counting the time, it’s time for Old Master Lin’s next treatment.”
“This time is crucial. Once he’s treated, Old Master Lin should be able to be discharged.”
“Without me, no one in this world can treat your grandfather.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanrong was so angry she laughed. She looked at Xiao Tian and said, “Alright, alright, so without you, my grandfather will die, is that it!”
“Xiao Tian, I’m telling you…”
Before her voice faded.
Ring!
A phone ring interrupted Lin Wanrong’s words.
She frowned, then picked up the phone and looked at it.
It was her mother’s call.
“It seems Old Master Lin is on his last legs.”
Xiao Tian seemed to already know something at this point, and his whole demeanor became confident.
Lin Wanrong frowned, then answered the call.
Three seconds later.
“What?! Grandfather is critically ill?!”
Lin Wanrong’s expression changed drastically.
Su Muwan’s expression also changed.
It’s here.
The most critical turning point of the previous life has arrived.
The corner of Qin Luo’s mouth also curled up slightly.
It’s here.
The most critical turning point in the original story about the live-in son-in-law Dragon King has arrived.
This is also the moment when Xiao Tian first shows off his skills!
Lin Wanrong hung up the phone, panicked, and looked at Su Muwan, “Su… Eldest Miss Su, my grandfather… he…”
Su Muwan nodded and said, “Go ahead. We’ll discuss cooperation later.”
“Okay! Thank you, Eldest Miss.”
Lin Wanrong nodded gratefully, then hesitated and looked at the confident Xiao Tian, “Xiao Tian, is what you said true?”
On Xiao Tian’s side, seeing that his wife had finally shown a pleading expression, a surge of protectiveness welled up in his heart. He smiled and nodded, “Don’t worry, leave it to me. The old master will be fine.”
And just as Lin Wanrong was about to take Xiao Tian to the hospital together.
Long Dingtian volunteered and shouted, “Wait!”
“Eldest Miss Lin, don’t trouble yourself over nothing. If this waste is lying, then Old Master Lin will truly have no chance of survival!”
At his words.
Lin Wanrong suddenly realized. Yes, she shouldn’t rush to any doctor in desperation.
If Xiao Tian, that waste, was lying to her, it would end up harming her grandfather.
So she looked at Long Dingtian and asked, “I wonder if President Long has anyone else who can treat my grandfather?”
“Of course!”
Long Dingtian waved his hand and pointed at Qin Luo.
The latter also curled his lips and stepped forward.
Su Muwan’s eyes widened, and she looked up at Qin Luo in disbelief.
?? What are you getting involved in?
Long Dingtian explained, “Eldest Miss Su has a peerless miracle doctor by her side! Master Qin is this miracle doctor!”
Su Muwan: ???
Wait? A miracle doctor?
Qin Luo nodded, looked at Lin Wanrong, and said with a smile, “Miss Lin can let me come along. If…”
He looked at Xiao Tian and sneered, “This waste has no skill, I can still turn things around and salvage the situation.”
Xiao Tian laughed scornfully upon hearing this, shook his head, and said nothing more.
In this world, besides his Tai Chi Seven Needles, no one could treat Old Master Lin.
Oh well, let Wanrong see his true strength.
Lin Wanrong was also relieved upon hearing this. She looked at Su Muwan gratefully and said, “Thank you, Eldest Miss!”
She knew that behind this, there must be Su Muwan’s approval.
“Uh hehehe…”
Su Muwan revealed a stiff smile. “You’re welcome. We’ll go together.”
“Young lady, how did I do?”
Qin Luo also stepped back to Su Muwan’s side and whispered, seeking praise.
Su Muwan looked up at him, the corner of her mouth twitching.
“Heh, you’re… really something…”
Qin Luo! I must give you a talking-to after this!!
A miracle doctor, huh! If you’re a miracle doctor, then I’ll take your surname!
