70: The first meeting between Lin Xuan and Su Fan.

Time flies, like urine leaving the body, gone once it's out.

The next morning.

Lin Xuan got up and, as usual, went to the familiar flower shop to buy a bouquet of violet.

"Qingge, good morning."

Back in the familiar girl's boudoir, Lin Xuan, as always, placed the violet at the head of the girl's bed.

[Lin Xuan, good morning.]

Even though she couldn't speak, Su Qingge silently responded to Lin Xuan's greeting in her heart.

At the same time, she proudly raised the middle finger of her right hand. = "= convex

[Lin Xuan, look! Not only my index finger, but I can also move my middle finger now.]

[I can feel it...]

[If this continues, I'll soon regain full sensation and wake up completely.]

[Can you see it? Did you see it? Look, look!]

...Seeing her gradual recovery, Su Qingge was very excited and wanted to share it with Lin Xuan immediately.

And at this moment.

Lin Xuan also noticed the raised tender white middle finger, and while happy for Su Qingge, he couldn't help but feel a bit strange.

After all, a beautiful girl...

Suddenly continuously giving you the "international greeting gesture"—the scene was incredibly awkward.

"Qingge, I see it. Congratulations!"

"However, giving the middle finger is a bit ungraceful. Girls should do that gesture less often!"

[Uh...]

[I know!]

Su Qingge only then remembered that the gesture was a bit inappropriate, and a wave of embarrassment involuntarily surged in her heart.

For the next few hours.

Lin Xuan continued to accompany the girl, giving massages, telling stories, singing songs, and so on.

Until the afternoon.

The warm time in the room was only broken by a phone ring.

"Onii-chan~~ What are you doing? | _・)"

"Didn't we agree to meet at the coffee shop in the city center?"

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, why aren't you here yet? You didn't... forget, did you..."

...

Listening to the little loli's resentful Urging sound from the other end of the line.

Lin Xuan then awkwardly realized that he had indeed forgotten yesterday's appointment... "Sorry! (.・_・.)ノ I'm sorry~"

"Please wait a moment, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone.

Lin Xuan first said a few words to Su Qingge, then got out of bed and left.

Click!

When the door closed, the room returned to a deathly silence.

Su Qingge only felt a long-lost sense of loneliness once again enveloping her.

[Come back soon.]

[Lin Xuan.]

...On this day, the reader remembered the fear of being dominated by the watermark line... Starlight Coffee House.

A famous internet-famous coffee shop in the Magic City.

Many trendy young people like to gather here and leisurely enjoy afternoon tea.

And at this moment.

At the entrance of the coffee shop, passersby all looked in a certain direction, their eyes full of strangeness.

There was a little loli, wearing a strange white jumpsuit, standing on her tiptoes, looking around as if searching for something.

"Dad, is that big sister a member of the Ultraman Tiga GUTS team?"

"Does her appearance here mean that monsters will appear soon?"

"Can I also become Ultraman Tiga and defeat the monsters!"

A little boy happened to pass by the coffee shop and, seeing Chen Kexin's battle suit, couldn't help but exclaim.

The sound reached the little loli's ears, and she immediately pointed at the little boy and seriously replied:

"Child! As long as your heart is full of hope, everyone can become light through their own strength."

"Oh yeah \(^o^)/~~~"

Hearing that he could become light, the little boy jumped up excitedly.

But before the little boy could ask how to become light, he was quickly carried away by his father.

Awkward, it was simply too awkward?!

Under the strange gazes of passersby, the little boy's father felt his scalp tingle and quickly fled the scene.

Once upon a time, he too was a youth who believed in light.

But in middle age, he had become a pauper.

Now he only knew that there was no light in this world, only money...

"Alas, another human who betrayed the light."

Watching the father and son's backs disappear, Chen Kexin sighed faintly.

And not far from her, the late Lin Xuan was already considering whether to stand her up.

This outfit is too chuunibyou, isn't it?!

Last time he played Luffy, this time he's cosplaying Rena from the GUTS team, right... "Here, Onii-chan~~~ I'm here~~~"

But before Lin Xuan could make up his mind to run away, he was already spotted by the sharp-eyed Chen Kexin.

As the little loli's loud voice rang out.

A bunch of strange gazes immediately gathered on Lin Xuan, making goosebumps erupt all over him.

"Stop shouting, you social butterfly!"

Lin Xuan, full of social death, started a hundred-meter dash, dragging Chen Kexin into the coffee shop...

At this moment.

In a corner of the coffee shop.

More than a dozen fashionably dressed young men and women were chatting and laughing.

"Yicheng, why hasn't Ke Xin come back yet?"

"And do you know who the boy she's picking up is?"

A cute girl in a pink dress stared at the coffee shop entrance, saying with some surprise.

Her name is Kong Lian, the protagonist of today's birthday.

Beside her sat a man in a branded tracksuit, who shook his head and shrugged at the question.

"I don't know? He should be a young master from a wealthy family in their circle!"

"If he's some famous rich second generation, we should build a good relationship with him even more to expand our network."

The man's name is He Yicheng, Kong Lian's boyfriend, and also the leader among this group of young men and women.

Most of them were scions of third- or fourth-tier minor families in the Magic City.

After learning that Chen Kexin was a true wealthy young lady, for the sake of so-called connections, they spontaneously became her "friends."

And from Chen Kexin, they also received a mission today...

That was to strike down Su Fan!

Thinking of this.

He Yicheng cast his gaze towards his target, the young man sitting alone by the wall, silent.

A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

This guy was really too pretentious.

He was clearly an ordinary person with no family background or connections, yet he didn't even proactively greet them.

Instead, he sat alone with his hands in his pockets, looking arrogant, exuding an aura of 'do not disturb,' almost as if he had three words carved on his face:

"Don't bother me."

Hmph!

This arrogance was simply boundless?!

"Brother, how much do you earn a month as a bodyguard?"

"I heard Ke Xin say you're very good at fighting? I'm not very talented, but my family just opened a KTV and is currently short-handed."

"How about this, I'll pay you ten thousand yuan a month. Why don't you switch jobs and become a security guard for me?"

He Yicheng's face was full of playfulness, his tone as if he was doing him a favor.

In his eyes.

In this world, those with power and influence were superior, while people like Su Fan, who had neither looks nor background.

Aside from being able to fight a bit, were useless.

If he was willing to give him a job with a monthly salary of over ten thousand, Su Fan should be deeply grateful.

But what angered him was...

This ungrateful guy not only remained indifferent to his olive branch but also frowned, showing impatience.

Moreover, the look in his eyes was full of condescension.

He was clearly just a poor nobody with no power or influence, why was he pretending?!

At this moment.

Su Fan spoke faintly, uttering four words.

"Like an ant."

Everyone present: "(꒪ꇴ꒪(꒪ꇴ꒪;) Huh???"

On the other side.

At the entrance of the coffee shop, Lin Xuan rushed in, pulling the little loli.

He quickly approached the booth number Chen Kexin mentioned.

And as soon as he approached He Yicheng and the others' location.

With just one glance, he recognized that man from the vast crowd...

A faded white shirt.

Pants with several holes.

White canvas shoes.

This outfit, completely out of place with the surroundings, was the standard "protagonist exclusive" attire.

Lin Xuan knew it was a sure thing!!!

This person... it was him!

It was him!!

It was him!!!

Our big brother-in-law~~ Little Su Fan!!!!!
