SSS-level catastrophe? That's my wife!

"Pfft—" Lin Yan couldn't help but chuckle and waved her hand, "What are you thinking, Dad? Supreme, my achievements are already beyond my wildest dreams."

A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Mu's eyes. He had a feeling that his parents were hiding something from him and Yan Yan.

But the next second he smiled faintly and realized that he was being too suspicious: his parents were just ordinary people, what secrets could they possibly have?

"Hey kid! What are you spacing out for again?"

Lin Ye's voice suddenly interrupted Lin Mu's thoughts. He chuckled and teased, "What's wrong? Are you not used to being praised for the first time?"

Lin Mu was about to speak when Jiang Shuwan suddenly interrupted him: "Son, if you go to Zhen'e Court, what will happen to Nianhe?"

Lin Mu was taken aback, then asked in confusion, "Mom, what's the conflict?"

"Of course!"

Jiang Shuwan added seriously, "Zhen'e Court is located in the Holy Capital City and has strict discipline. If you think you can ask for leave as easily as you would at the academy, that's just wishful thinking."

She raised her delicate hand and pointed at Lin Mu, speaking with the wisdom of someone who's been through it all: "Son, do you know that you and Nianhe are about to live apart?"

"Separation between couples can easily lead to many conflicts."

"Uh..." Lin Mu replied with a smile, "Mom, we haven't gotten to that point yet."

"Hmm?" Jiang Shuwan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked, "Where are we at?"

Lin Mu paused, met her gaze, and said earnestly, "She is patiently waiting for me to like her."

Jiang Shuwan: "?"

Lin Ye: "??"

Lin Yan: "???"

The three of them widened their eyes simultaneously, looking at him with helpless expressions.

Jiang Shuwan hesitated for a long time before finally looking at Lin Ye and sighing, "Husband, our son is truly blessed to have met such a silly girl like Nianhe."

Lin Ye nodded silently and sighed, "It's just that Nianhe has suffered, having to deal with such a stubborn son like him."

Lin Yan suppressed a laugh and asked softly, "Brother, Yan Yan doesn't understand something."

"If you like something, you like it; if you don't like something, you don't like it. What do you mean by asking your sister-in-law to patiently wait for you to like it?"

Lin Mu explained seriously, "Yan Yan, you don't understand. I haven't slept with her yet. I don't count as liking her until I have."

"Brother!" Lin Yan's mouth gaped open in an "O" shape, her eyes filled with astonishment: "What kind of absurdity is this?!"

Jiang Shuwan and Lin Ye were both delighted. Although their son's words were problematic, they did not object to his interpretation.

"Yan Yan, your brother is right."

Lin Ye immediately replied, then a relieved smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Lin Mu: "Son, push it down quickly, don't drag it out, understand?"

Lin Yan looked somewhat bewildered for a moment, but Lin Mu nodded solemnly: "I will push her down as soon as possible, don't worry."

After saying this, Lin Ye and Jiang Shuwan looked at each other, their smiles deepening, filled with the joy of soon being able to hold their grandchildren.

Jiang Shuwan asked gently, "Son, let's find some time to bring Nianhe home again. Last time we were too rushed and didn't have time to chat with Nianhe much."

After saying that, her tone suddenly turned stern: "Furthermore, we have already accepted Nianhe as our daughter-in-law. If you dare to betray her in the future, you're dead!"

Lin Mu paused, then his tone suddenly became serious: "Mom and Dad, no matter what Nianhe is like, will you still like her?"

"Of course!" they both said in unison.

The next second, Jiang Shuwan changed the subject and asked with great interest:

"If in the future, for some reason, Mom and Dad don't like Nianhe anymore, would you separate from her because of us?"

"No!" Lin Mu blurted out, looking at his parents with extremely firm eyes.

……

Zhen'erting Building.

Inside the central control room on the 32nd floor.

Shen Rou stood in front of Lü Ping's desk, her voice tinged with suppressed laughter: "That's how it is, Chief Lü Ping. Lin Mu's family... are quite amusing. They even thought our headquarters' phone number was a scam call..."

"Perhaps his family thinks this is too unbelievable."

Lu Ping smiled, his tone understanding: "After all, it's unbelievable to hear that your own child was suddenly specially recruited by Zhen'e Court."

Shen Rou asked softly, "Do you know this person? He's the first person in the history of Zhen'e Court to be officially registered under his name."

"A nominal appointment?" Lu Ping raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with surprise.

Shen Rou nodded gently: "Yes, Chief Ning Mo said there was no need to make any arrangements for him, and even said that his room has always been there..." Shen Rou was completely confused.

Lu Ping's eyes widened in surprise, then he smiled faintly and said, "Actually... I'm just as confused as you are. Go ahead, Chief Ning Mo must have his reasons for doing this."

After Shen Rou left, Lü Ping leaned back in his chair, staring blankly at the ceiling, and muttered to himself, "Even if he's Gu Ge's distant cousin, he wouldn't open such a back door for him."

"This is Zhen'e Court... What exactly is Chief Ning Mo thinking?"

It was 7:00 p.m. in Tiecha's small courtyard.

He sat alone on the stone bench, his brow furrowing from time to time, glancing out of the courtyard every now and then, occasionally uttering a few mumbled curses.

Just then, the crisp "tap-tap" sound of high heels on the concrete floor came from afar.

A few seconds later, a woman in a black dress and black high heels with red soles came into view.

Her skirt swayed gently with her steps, revealing glimpses of her two fair legs.

The woman didn't even glance at him, and walked straight into the courtyard, heading towards the stone bench she usually sat on, about two meters away from the shovel.

Only after she sat down gracefully did Tieqiao calmly speak: "Oh, I thought you weren't coming back all night. If you had come back any later, I would have set off firecrackers to celebrate."

An Shuyao turned her head and looked at him calmly: "Why are you sitting in the courtyard at this hour? Are you perhaps waiting for me?"

The shovel's eyes widened in surprise, then it sneered, "Waiting for you? That's the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life."

"I felt inexplicably better the day you weren't here, but then you came back. It's so annoying."

After he finished speaking, An Shuyao ignored him and simply gazed at the sky, her eyes vacant.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Tieqiao flew into a rage, got up and walked into the house, saying without turning his head, "Next time I find you half-dead again, I'll definitely give you the last blow."

Just as I pushed open the door, a cold voice suddenly rang out from behind me: "I went to see some old friends. Also, this room of yours is now permanently requisitioned by me. If you have any objections, you can get out and move out."

The man with the shovel paused slightly, then slammed the door shut with a "bang," muttering a curse under his breath:

"You can see whoever you want, what's it to me? This is my house, if anyone's going to get out, it's you, you bitch!"
