264: Chapter 264 Han Qing's Coquettish Side

In the afternoon, Qin Lin ran into Su Yuling in the hallway.

She was leaning against the wall, holding that coverless book in her hand as if she were waiting for him.

“Yuling.” Qin Lin walked over.

Su Yuling raised her head and looked at him: “Brother Qin Lin, how was last night?”

Qin Lin looked at her: “Did you do that on purpose?”

Su Yuling didn't deny it, only offering a slight smile: “I was just giving you two a hand.”

“Why?”

Su Yuling thought for a moment: “Because she was too slow, and I couldn't wait any longer.”

Qin Lin frowned: “Couldn't wait for what?”

Su Yuling looked at him, an indescribable look in her eyes: “Couldn't wait...”

Su Yuling stopped and said nothing more, turning to walk away.

Qin Lin watched her retreating back, a strange feeling in his heart.

What on earth is this girl planning?

...

In the evening, Qin Lin returned to the third floor, and Han Qing arrived.

There were only three women on the RV who weren't pregnant.

Li Ran and Su Yuling wouldn't come of their own accord, but Han Qing was more than happy to stay on the third floor whenever she wanted.

She was wearing a black slip nightgown with her hair down, looking very feminine.

“Qin Lin, did you go to 000 last night?” Han Qing asked.

Qin Lin nodded: “Yeah.”

Han Qing looked at him: “Have you already... with Li Ran?”

Qin Lin nodded again.

Han Qing smiled: “It finally happened?”

Qin Lin sighed: “I suppose so.”

Han Qing leaned into his embrace: “How did it feel? Compared to me.”

Qin Lin thought about it: “It was quite good.”

Han Qing blinked: “Good in what way, specifically?”

Qin Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: “You're asking again?”

Han Qing laughed and shook his arm: “I'm just curious.”

Qin Lin was dumbfounded.

Curious?

Wait, is she acting coquettish?

Is this how you usually talk?

When did your Aunt Qing become such a delicate little woman, even acting coquettishly? Shouldn't you be pretending to be angry and then venting it out at night?

Although Qin Lin was puzzled, he really enjoyed this side of Han Qing.

“Brother Qin Lin~, just tell me about it~”

“Aunt Qing, don't be like this.”

“What's wrong? Am I not allowed to be like this?”

“No, Aunt Qing, when did you become so good at acting coquettish?”

Han Qing ignored him and continued her coquettish mode.

Qin Lin was helpless and could only give a brief account.

Of course, he omitted many, many details.

For example, what she called him and such.

After listening, Han Qing was silent for a while before returning to normal: “What do you think that girl Su Yuling is really trying to do?”

Qin Lin shook his head: “I don't know.”

Han Qing thought seriously: “Is she still waiting for something?”

Qin Lin remembered what Su Yuling had said: “Could it be that she wants to...”

Han Qing looked at his expression and smiled: “It seems you've guessed it too.”

Qin Lin took a deep breath: “But it's unlikely, right? I feel like she wouldn't do that.”

Han Qing leaned in his arms: “What's impossible? In her current state, anything she does is normal.”

“Especially since she was influenced by Yu Rou and me at the beginning. She probably thinks the reason you didn't look for her back then was because Li Ran wasn't on the RV.”

“Now that Li Ran is here, don't you think she's very happy?”

Qin Lin fell silent.

Han Qing had a point.

“Forget it, I won't think about it. Let nature take its course.”

Han Qing nodded: “Mhm.”

...

Over the next few days, everything was very peaceful.

Qin Lin spent a few hours in the Drivers Cabin every day, and the rest of the time he wandered around the RV.

Li Ran officially became his woman.

The relationship between the two progressed quickly; in less than a week, they were already very familiar with each other.

Li Ran also began to frequent the third floor.

Although she was older, she couldn't help but reveal her delicate side in front of Qin Lin.

She would act coquettishly, get shy, take the initiative to kiss him, and whisper sweet nothings in his ear.

Qin Lin quite liked this feeling.

Su Yuling was still the same, never taking the initiative to find him or coming to the third floor.

But Qin Lin noticed that the look in her eyes when she watched him was growing deeper.

That look was as if she were brewing something, or perhaps waiting for something.

Qin Lin knew that her breaking point was almost here.

This afternoon, while Qin Lin was in the Drivers Cabin, the System notification suddenly sounded.

[Large crystal stone mineral vein detected ahead, distance approximately 200 kilometers]

[Estimated reserves: 120-150 pieces]

Qin Lin's eyes lit up, and he turned the direction, flying toward the target.

An hour later, they reached the target area.

Below was a range of snow-capped mountains, a vast expanse of white with no signs of life.

Qin Lin activated the automatic extraction function.

[Automatic extraction in progress... Estimated time: 30 hours]

He walked out of the Drivers Cabin and into the living room.

Su Yuran was chatting with Lin Wanwan. Seeing him come out, she smiled and asked, “Found a mine?”

Qin Lin nodded: “Yeah, a large mineral vein. It'll take 30 hours to extract.”

Su Yuran walked over and took his arm: “Then we won't be moving for a while.”

“Yeah.”

Su Yuran blinked: “Then accompany me to the Plantation? I want to pick some fruit.”

Qin Lin nodded: “Okay.”

The two went to the Plantation. Su Yuran carried a basket, picking fruit as she walked.

Qin Lin followed behind her, feeling warm inside as he watched her serious expression.

“Qin Lin.” Su Yuran suddenly called him.

“Hmm?”

“My mom has changed a lot lately.”

Qin Lin was taken aback: “How has she changed?”

Su Yuran thought for a moment: “She's become happier and loves to smile. Before, she always used to space out by herself, but now it's different.”

Qin Lin didn't say anything.

Su Yuran looked at him: “It's all thanks to you.”

Qin Lin smiled: “You know?”

Su Yuran shook her head: “If I didn't even know that, what kind of Mistress No. 001 would I be? I said as long as you're all happy, it's fine.”

Qin Lin reached out and hugged her: “Yuran, thank you.”

Su Yuran leaned into his chest: “No need for thanks.”

The two hugged quietly for a while before Su Yuran suddenly said, “Qin Lin, when do you think that girl Yuling will come to find you?”

Qin Lin thought for a moment: “Soon.”

Su Yuran raised her head to look at him: “Are you sure?”

Qin Lin nodded: “I'm sure.”

Su Yuran sighed: “That girl is getting harder and harder to understand.”

Qin Lin smiled: “Me too.”

...

At night, Qin Lin was on the third floor when Li Ran arrived.

She was wearing a white nightgown with her hair down, looking very gentle.

“Xiao Lin.” Li Ran called him.

“Why are you here tonight?”

Li Ran threw herself directly into his arms: “Because I missed you.”

Qin Lin smiled and leaned down to give her a kiss.

He had to admit, in terms of being flirtatious, she was quite similar to Li Ying.

And she was much more experienced than Han Qing.

Han Qing would still be reserved for a while every time they met, acting a bit cold and aloof.

Sometimes she would even deliberately ignore him, giving him a roll of her eyes before walking away coolly, leaving Qin Lin standing there in a daze.

But Li Ran was different; every time she entered the room on the third floor, she would pounce on him directly.

She was hungrier than he was.
