The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 559 - 523: Betrothal Gift

After Qiao Lechu finished speaking, she kept waiting for Lin Huai Shu’s answer.

But Lin Huai Shu was silent for a moment.

After a while, he finally looked up at Qiao Lechu.

His eyes were very red.

The moment Qiao Lechu saw it, her heart skipped a beat.

Her eyes widened a bit.

Shocked and somewhat panicked.

Lin Huai Shu said, "Lechu, do you like me?"

Qiao Lechu’s eyes widened even more.

Lin Huai Shu waited for a while, didn’t hear a response, and said again, "Not speaking is an approval, right? You do like me, right."

Qiao Lechu still didn’t speak, staring at him blankly.

Lin Huai Shu’s reaction startled her a bit.

His words startled her even more.

She didn’t know what to say.

Lin Huai Shu said, "So you do like me, right."

Qiao Lechu’s eyes blinked blankly.

Lin Huai Shu continued, "I understand now."

After saying this, he stood up and said, "Get some rest, I’m going back now."

Qiao Lechu watched him.

Lin Huai Shu took two steps out, then came back and touched the top of her head: "Don’t overthink, just rest well."

After saying that, he walked away directly.

It wasn’t until he left the room that Qiao Lechu reacted.

How did he suddenly leave?

Did she upset him?

Lin Huai Shu indeed was upset.

After exiting the door, he stood outside for a while, then went straight downstairs.

Qiao Yu and Chen Hui were not downstairs.

Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian were not there either.

He directly left the Qiao Family, went to his car.

Stood by the car for a while.

He took out his phone and made a call.

The other side answered very slowly, Lin Huai Shu almost hung up and redialed when the call was finally answered.

"What is it? You better have something important, or else..."

Lin Huai Shu interrupted her, sounding a bit urgent: "Mom, is Dad at home?"

Mrs. Lin was silent for a moment, then shouted, "You called just to find your dad! Your dad’s phone fell into a ditch and was washed away by the flood!"

"Mom, it’s urgent." Lin Huai Shu said.

"He’s here." Mrs. Lin said, "No social events today, he’s at..."

Lin Huai Shu interrupted her again: "Mom, you and Dad..."

"Lin Huai Shu!" Mrs. Lin interrupted him again, "You’re talking to your mother! What are you doing! Interrupting elders! Where are your manners!"

"Mom, you can hit me when I get home." Lin Huai Shu said, "Right now, you and Dad bring the dowry you’ve been preparing for me all these years..."

Just as the word "dowry" was said, Mrs. Lin interrupted him again: "What did you say? Dowry?!"

"Yes." Lin Huai Shu sighed.

Feeling it was too hard to say anything.

"To whose house?!" Mrs. Lin immediately got excited.

Lin Huai Shu could even hear the sound of her running at home over the phone.

"To the Qiao Family." Lin Huai Shu said.

"Ah!!!!!!" Mrs. Lin exclaimed excitedly, "My daughter-in-law, my darling daughter-in-law. My precious Lechu! Old Lin! Old Lin! Come out quickly!"

Lin Huai Shu moved the phone a bit away from his ear.

"Wait, I’ll dress up and come right over." Mrs. Lin said, "Lechu, your mother-in-law is coming to pick you up."

"Mom, please be as quick as possible." Lin Huai Shu said, "Bring what you can, make a list of what you can’t. You both sign it."

"Lin Huai Shu, you’re really pulling one over on your parents." Mrs. Lin said, "Understood. Understood. I’ll go pick a wedding venue later."

After hanging up with Mrs. Lin, Lin Huai Shu stood by the car for a while again.

He kept thinking about the things Qiao Lechu said to him.

After a while, he rubbed his eyes.

It was only after wiping that he noticed someone watching him.

He turned to look over.

And saw Gu Yanjing standing not far away watching him.

When he looked over, Gu Yanjing raised his eyebrow slightly.

Lin Huai Shu’s heart skipped a beat, and he rubbed his eyes again and said, "When did you start standing there?"

"When you asked Uncle Lin to bring the dowry over." Gu Yanjing said.

Lin Huai Shu leaned against the car, gently exhaled, and didn’t say anything.

After a while, he asked, "You’ve always known about Lechu’s matter, right?"

Gu Yanjing didn’t say a word.

Lin Huai Shu said, "She told me."

Gu Yanjing said, "I handled it with Qiao Yuxian."

Lin Huai Shu asked, "Is it handled cleanly?"

Gu Yanjing said, "Yes."

Lin Huai Shu nodded, then asked, "Where’s the little sister-in-law?"

"In the backyard." Gu Yanjing said.

Lin Huai Shu walked towards the yard.

Qiao Yuxian was squatting by the flower bed in the backyard, with a pile of pebbles around.

She looked not in a very good mood.

Upon hearing footsteps, she looked up.

Lin Huai Shu said, "Little sister-in-law."

"You cried." Qiao Yuxian directly exposed.

"Tsk." Lin Huai Shu said, "Little sister-in-law, you’re giving me no face at all."

Qiao Yuxian said, "What did Lechu say to you?"

Lin Huai Shu squatted at the flower bed opposite her, was silent for two seconds, and said, "Almost... told me everything."

After he finished speaking, Qiao Yuxian was silent for two seconds, then raised her hand to press against her eyes.

Because to discuss Qiao Lechu’s matters, Gu Yanjing did not come closer.

He watched from a distance, and saw Qiao Yuxian press her hand against her eyes.

He frowned slightly.

"Tsk." Qiao Yuxian clicked her tongue too, "Silly girl."

Lin Huai Shu said, "Little sister-in-law, I didn’t bring tissues."

Qiao Yuxian pressed against her eyes and said, "No need."

Lin Huai Shu didn’t speak again.

Qiao Yuxian also didn’t speak.

Sadness overwhelmed anger and took over her body, her mind was very confused now.

After a while, Lin Huai Shu asked, "Who was last time’s person?"

Qiao Yuxian looked up at him.

She didn’t seem surprised by his question.

She knew Qiao Lechu wouldn’t say who it was.

"Jiang Shouzhuo." Qiao Yuxian said directly.

Putting the name Jiang Shouzhuo a year ago, Lin Huai Shu might not have known who it was.

But saying it now, he knew.

Because the Jiang Family was gone.

He paid attention to this matter last year.

But not too concerned.

He didn’t know who made them gone.

Or why they were wiped out.

Because it was done very covertly.

Seamlessly.

Another major reason.

Because of Qiao Lechu, he nearly turned over all related to her on the Jing University forum.

Among them were matters regarding Qiao Lechu, Jiang Shouzhuo, and Qiao Yuxian.

Because Qiao Lechu once liked Jiang Shouzhuo, so he had a deeper impression of this person!

"Did Jiang Shouzhuo go in?" Lin Huai Shu asked.

Qiao Yuxian nodded, "Yes."

Lin Huai Shu didn’t speak anymore. Thinking about how he could get a chance to beat him up.

After a while, he asked, "Lechu once liked him..."

Qiao Yuxian said, "Jiang Shouzhuo has a scar on his arm."

Lin Huai Shu looked at Qiao Yuxian, and understanding her meaning, his pupils trembled fiercely.

There was a scar on his arm.

A scar on his arm!

Qiao Lechu mistook Jiang Shouzhuo for him.

So, so...
