Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 456 Xuanwu Gate

The reason Su He was so concerned was entirely because her relationship with both parties was extraordinary.

On one side are her blood relatives, and on the other side are her college classmates and best friends. She feels that even if she gets married one day, she will never care about them this much.

An hour after hanging up the phone, Su He arrived at Lin Mo's residence.

As the living room door opened, Su He poked her head in, looked around, and asked softly, "Ruyan isn't here, is she?"

"No, she went to work," Lin Mo replied.

Upon hearing this, Su He straightened up, patted her chest, and said with relief, "That's good, that's good."

"Cousin, I was just asking casually. You didn't have to take time off to come here, did you?" Lin Mo asked cautiously, afraid that his cousin would find out about his agreement with Liu Ruyan.

Little did Su He know that with just a little deduction, even without him saying it outright, Su He could easily figure out what was going to happen.

Then Su He patted her younger brother on the shoulder and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, how could it be? My little brother has made something of himself! Don't worry, once you've won over Liu Ruyan, your cousin has to lend a hand!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's eyes widened in disbelief. He hadn't said anything, so why was he exposed?

Seeing his expression, his cousin Su He crossed her arms and sneered, "Don't look at me like that. I know what kind of people you and Liu Ruyan are."
First, you two are already together, so there can't be a confession ceremony. Second, you haven't reached the point of proposing, so there's no proposal ceremony. Finally, today isn't a holiday, so there won't be any holiday-related ceremonies. So, tell me, what's left after eliminating these possibilities?

It has to be said that my cousin Su He is definitely a highly intelligent person. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to have reached the management level in a company at such a young age. She was able to deduce this based on just one sentence from Lin Mo.

"Ahem. No, cousin, I just wanted to give her a surprise," Lin Mo said, determined to deny it.

The next second, Su He continued, "After the surprise, of course, comes the final step. Don't worry, I've already scolded her for you, to make her follow some rules of the martial arts world. Oh, that's good. After I leave, you two can sleep in the same bed. You're already like this, what are you shy about, grown men? Don't worry, it's just a sense of ceremony, leave it to your cousin."

"Hurry up and change your clothes, then come downstairs with me!"

"Where are you going?" Seeing this, Lin Mo gave up on refuting it, since his purpose had already been seen through.

"Of course we're going to buy things, otherwise do you think the sense of ceremony will come to your door and set it up for you?" Su He rolled her eyes at him and spat.

Lin Mo:
Since that was the case, he didn't linger any longer, quickly changed his clothes, and went downstairs with his cousin.

'Didi'

At the entrance of the residential compound, the roof of a Maybach flashed twice, and Lin Mo's eyes widened immediately: "Wait a minute, isn't this her car? How come it's with you?"

“Of course it’s with me. You don’t think Ruyan was just trying to please me that day, do you? When she came to visit me the day before yesterday, she even bought me a gold bracelet.” Su He raised her arm, revealing a gleaming gold bracelet on her wrist.

Lin Mo: "You really have the nerve to ask for it?"

“Nonsense, of course I want what I got from selling my brother. Besides, it’s not like I didn’t refuse. Ruyan insisted on giving it to me, and I only reluctantly agreed after I declined three times,” said cousin Su He confidently.

If it were an ordinary person, she certainly wouldn't accept such an expensive gift, but it was Liu Ruyan. This woman was rich, and besides, she was a meritorious official who had helped the emperor rise to power, so this benefit was something she deserved.

"What about your Smart L6?" Lin Mo asked.

Su He: "I opened it for your boyfriend. What, didn't you see it?"

Lin Mo:
Good heavens, she's a real scoundrel! Her cousin used to be a wage slave, but now she drives a Maybach to work every day. Her colleagues must think her house got demolished for compensation.

The two got into the car, and Lin Mo began shopping for room furnishings with her cousin Su He. Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan started working at the company today, but she was somewhat distracted. It wasn't until after the afternoon meeting that she gave her secretary, Xiao Tian, ​​some instructions and then drove home as quickly as possible.

First, she took a bath to make herself smell nice, and then she started looking for some pretty and sexy clothes in her wardrobe. It was clear that she was taking what was about to happen today seriously. She even put on some light makeup, especially on her lips, where she applied a fruit-flavored lip gloss.

Meanwhile, the siblings, who had been busy all day, finally finished decorating the house. The house was cleaned inside and out, and the living room floor was covered with rose petals. There was also a bunch of roses on the coffee table.

The bedroom was also rearranged, with bright red sheets and duvet covers, which looked festive.

There was a candlelight dinner set on the table, and the curtains in the room were drawn, making it somewhat dim, which, combined with the candlelight, created an ambiguous atmosphere.

Lin Mo himself had been dressed in a proper outfit by Su He from head to toe, inside and out, and even his hair was specially trimmed by Tony, making him look incredibly energetic.

"Not bad, not bad. I never thought my former country bumpkin cousin would actually turn out to be a handsome guy after a little grooming. Your cousin has helped you with everything she should and shouldn't have. If you still can't win Ruyan over, you're a good-for-nothing."

Of course, your cousin also prepared a final plan for you. If she doesn't agree, you can find another opportunity to invite her out, drug her, and take her body. If she's happy, she'll agree; if she's angry, she'll punish her.

"If you like it, it can stay with you for life; if you dislike it, cultivate yourself in stillness, keep your mind clear as a mirror. Three years will pass in the blink of an eye. Take it away, take it back again, repeat this process, and great things can be accomplished!" At the entrance of the community, Su He patted his cousin on the shoulder and said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's eyes widened immediately: "Huh? Cousin, it can't be that serious, it really can't be!"

Although his classical Chinese is terrible, he can still understand this kind of fragmented classical Chinese text.

Besides, how could I disagree? We've already discussed this together. You really want to send me in!

"Take it or leave it. I've taught you all the tricks. Whether they work or not is up to fate. Just don't betray your cousin if you cause trouble in the future. I'm leaving now!"

Before Lin Mo could speak, his cousin Su He got into the Maybach and drove off.

Fortunately, there was no one else around at the time. If Miss Yuan and the others were there, they would have asked her cousin to explain the future in detail.

With a sigh, Lin Mo went upstairs to his residence, took out a small sign he had specially made that day, and hung it outside the living room door. Only then did he sit at the dining table, take a deep breath, and prepare himself, because he had received news that Liu Ruyan would be returning soon.

There was no way around it; although he was really looking forward to it, when the moment actually arrived, he was a little nervous in addition to his anticipation.

After Liu Ruyan returned, she stood downstairs at the apartment building for a long time, looking extremely nervous.

In the end, she went inside and took the elevator. From today onwards, she was also someone with a cauldron.

'Ding~'

As the elevator doors opened, Liu Ruyan was startled, but her eyes immediately filled with determination as she stepped out of the elevator.

Just as she was about to open the door, she noticed a small, palm-sized sign with gold lettering on a black background. The next second, Liu Ruyan burst out laughing.

There were only three words on the small sign.

Xuanwu Gate

　Sigh, the last one got blocked again.
