I treated you like a godfather, and you actually dated my sister!

"No, it really is? What exactly happened to you all after I left?"

"Ask him."

Lin Bei glared at Cao Qihao, his eyes filled with resentment.

Cao Qihao touched his nose. "Actually, it's nothing. After you guys left, my senior came and took him away."

Qu Hao tilted his head like a curious child, "Is it really that simple?"

"Hmm, maybe Lin Bei said something wrong and it just happened to be overheard!"

Qu Hao: "What did he say?"

Cao Qihao recounted what had happened that morning, and then everyone looked at Lin Bei with pity.

This matter...

You really can't blame Lin Bei; after all, all he said was to be Zhou Gong's son-in-law, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Blame Lin Bei Taixu!

"What kind of looks are those? Honestly, is this my fault?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"This has nothing to do with me... um~? What do you mean by nodding? Is this my fault? What does this have to do with me at all?"

"A connection? That's too far-fetched!" x4

"What the hell~"

Lin Bei was so angry that he twisted and turned from side to side, his eyes darting around to see if there was anything handy he could use to kill these bastards!

Adasi patted Lin Bei on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't be discouraged, my friend. I'll ask my mom to see if she can find any fresh deer antlers for you to nourish yourself!"

Qin Ze nodded seriously, "Hmm~ I think I have an old ginseng root, you can try making it into wine later."

Qu Hao stroked his chin, tilted his head, and his eyes lit up. "My dad has some real maca. I'll steal some for you when I go home!"

Cao Qihao looked left and right, and seeing that everyone had spoken, he chimed in, "My grandfather is an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor; I'll ask him for a prescription for you later!"

Lin Bei: .....

No, is that right?

He's only 18, is he already this seriously ill?

After hearing what they said, he felt like he was about to collapse.

Looking at his trembling legs, Lin Bei gritted his teeth and made a firm decision: from today onwards, he would never step out of his dormitory room except for classes.

He needs to rest and recuperate before stunning everyone.

He wanted to show Zhou Churan, the dark-skinned man, what it meant to be able to build a nest on a mountain peak and catch fish and shrimp in the deepest hell!

Lin Bei held up one finger to everyone and then completely muted his microphone.

Seeing that the excitement had died down, Cao Qihao handed the books he had prepared in his bag to Qin Ze.

"I noticed he wasn't there when I came out, so I just took him with me."

"Okay, thanks, Lao Cao."

"It's nothing, but there's something I'd like to tell you."

"you say."

"It was that one last night... Qu Hao used my account to do it, there were quite a few..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Ze waved his hand to interrupt, "Did you pay the taxes?"

"Emmm, no."

"Remember to pay the taxes later."

Cao Qihao looked up at Qin Ze and understood what he meant.

They're all smart people, so there's no need to spell things out too clearly.

He meant to share the money from last night with Qin Ze, but Qin Ze interrupted him with the words about paying taxes, implying that he didn't need the money.

Thanks.

Qin Ze, like a dog, furtively glanced around before crawling to Cao Qihao's ear and whispering, "Thanks, I'll send you a copy of that recipe later too!"

Without waiting for Cao Qihao's reaction, she casually flipped through her notebook.

After seeing Lin Bei's condition, Qin Ze felt it was necessary to think about the future. As the older generation had always said, women are like scalpels that cut bones.

With the examples of his predecessors and Lin Bei before him serving as reminders, he knew he had to plan ahead.

After all, he always lost lychees when facing that enchantress, Qu Man.

Cao Qihao, with his dark circles under his eyes, looked at Qin Ze incredulously.

Someone who gets a nosebleed just from looking at him actually needs supplements? Aren't they afraid of overdoing it and causing a rupture? Even if they're in a relationship now, is there any need to be in such a rush?

"Okay, I'll send it to you later."

"What are you two whispering about? Tell me too." Qu Hao, with his messy hair, leaned over with a gossipy look on his face.

Qin Ze pushed Qu Hao away with disdain, "Couldn't you have tidied yourself up before coming out? Don't you know you look sloppy like this?"

"At this hour, I can only wash my face and brush my teeth at most. Any more would be asking too much of me, Fat Tiger."

Qin Ze rolled his eyes and ignored him. The feud between them wasn't over yet; he'd give him a nicer look after it was resolved.

"By the way, is the one I bought waterproof?"

"What do you mean by waterproof? And you, 'model guy,' where did that hickey on your neck come from? You didn't really break up with my sister and then find someone else right after, did you?"

"Call him brother-in-law!"

"Huh? You and my sister are back together? When did that happen? How come I didn't know?" Qu Hao had just finished speaking when he suddenly looked like he understood.

"I know, you called me this morning asking for the room key, right?"

Qu Hao scrutinized Qin Ze from head to toe and said, "I'm not trying to be mean, but why are you so shameless? To be honest, Qu Man is just average-looking, why are you still offering yourself to her? You're missing out, brother. Listen to me, break up with her quickly, I'll find you someone better!"

Cao Qihao: "I think you just don't want another brother-in-law in your dorm, do you?"

"Nonsense, I just feel that Qu Man isn't good enough for our model brother, don't you think?"

Qin Ze glanced sideways and gave Qu Hao a cold smile.

"You bastard, you're going to call me 'brother-in-law' all you want now. Just wait until you've got your shares ready and are ready to hold your nephew!"

Seeing that Qin Ze remained unrepentant, Qu Hao said with a sorrowful expression, "I'm doing this for your own good. Think about it, how long have you known Qu Man? How long have I known her?"

"You don't know, Qu Man, that..."

Listening to Qu Hao's incessant chatter, Qin Ze realized that this guy really was just like Cao Qihao said—he just didn't want another brother-in-law in the dorm!

Looking at Qu Hao's expression that said, "I'm doing this all for your own good," Qin Ze took out his phone, opened Bubble, and held it in front of him.

"I can't make that decision. Why don't you ask your sister?"

Qu Hao immediately shrank his neck and subconsciously distanced himself from Qin Ze.

Let him speak?

Are you kidding me?

He hasn't even gotten revenge for being kicked out of the live stream yesterday. He's trying to avoid her now, so how could he possibly still be hanging around in front of Qu Man?

What's the difference between this and sending someone to their death?

"Say it, say it! Here, let me hold it down for you, you continue!" Qin Ze sneered as he pressed the "Hold to Talk" button and handed it to Qu Hao!

Qu Hao broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this.

She quickly grabbed Qin Ze's hand holding the phone with both hands, her eyes filled with tears.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I was just joking, why did you take it seriously? I swear I'll only ever consider you my brother-in-law, no one else can change that, okay?"

"Brother-in-law, please, please don't let your hands shake!"
