Chapter 280

The elder brothers and sisters didn’t have the energy to talk to the youngest. Maisui, “Eldest brother will be old by then; he’ll probably separate with the family after marrying.”

Dawang rolled her eyes at her, “Then you can move in with your in-laws by then.”

Maisui’s eyes immediately turned red with anger, “Hmph!” She turned to face Lin Lan, “Mom, look at them bullying me.”

Lin Lan immediately patted her on the shoulder, “Boys, don’t bully girls, alright?”

Erwang immediately asked about their sleeping arrangements in the future. This was a major event. After all, he helped build a new house because he wanted to ensure that he could sleep soundly.

Lin Lan subconsciously looked in the other direction. Han Qingsong was standing, measuring the size and preparing to set up the kang. Hearing that, he also raised his head and looked at her.

Lin Lan immediately turned her head and smiled, “Isn’t it easy— between the east and the west, men will sleep in the east room and us women sleep in the west.”

After speaking, she felt a tingle on her back as if she was being stared at and quickly moved to avoid it.

Xiaowang emphasised again, “I want to be with mom and I will sing for her.”

Lin Lan patted his head and said happily, “This child is awesome.”

Sanwang was not convinced, “I can swim; isn’t that awesome?”

Lin Lan, “I don’t care whether you are good at that or not. Anyway, I like those who can sing, draw, dance, and learn properly.”

She just didn’t like children who were stubborn, swimming in a reservoir during a thunderstorm, risking the chances of drowning. Even thinking about the chances of that happening was terrifying for her.

She also didn’t like those who were arrogant, fighting with people all day long and wanting to be a gang leader. In the end, they would meet their maker with the shot of a gun…

Dawang and Sanwang felt that Lin Lan was negatively biassed towards them. Dawang didn’t care as Sanwang just let out a giggle and started to touch his crescent moon scar.

Lin Lan poked her finger at him angrily, “You can go swimming in summer, but you’re not allowed to go in the cold. It’ll be easy to get cramps then, got it?”

Sanwang laughed.

Lin Lan, “Come on, we’re going home for dinner.”

Dawang jumped out first as Sanwang followed closely with Erwang not far behind. Either way, none of them were slower than Sanwang.

Maisui also led Xiaowang and ran out after Wangwang.

The wind blew the oil lamps in the house, making them wobble unsteadily.

Lin Lan hurriedly ran after them and reminded them, “Run slowly and be careful, don’t fall.”

It was already dark outside and the building materials were piled up together, making it easy to trip over them. The oil lamp that was swaying to and fro in her hand was then completely extinguished by the wind.

It became dark all around.

Lin Lan was startled, “Oh, where are the matches?”

She went into the house and reached for it, remembering that there was a box of matches on the windowsill.

.

After fumbling twice, she touched a warm body and quickly smiled, “Where did you put the match?”

She was about to step back, but was caught in a heaty embrace.

His two sturdy arms hugged her strongly, fitting her to him without any gap in between as the aggressive masculinity of the man instantly overwhelmed her.

Lin Lan’s heart beat faster and her breathing was unsteady, “It’s so dark, I remember a joke…”

The large hand had already made its way through the front of her clothes and reached her back. The increasingly hot temperature spread all over her body along her spine, causing her to shudder as if she suffered an electric shock.
