Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Chapter 179 Poor drinking manners, denies everything upon waking.

He thought for a moment and then said, "To be honest, I still feel guilty towards you. It was my mother who arranged the marriage, and when I came back and found out that the bride price was only so low, I felt really bad for your family, so..."

“So you listen to whatever your mom says and give her whatever she wants!” Lin Qingping chimed in.

He smiled and agreed.

"That's fine! Giving it to me is better than giving it to my mother!" Lin Qingping snorted.

Gu Juncheng raised his eyebrows, saying nothing. He hadn't known his mother-in-law was this kind of person before.

Lin Qingping also thought of this, but didn't he know what kind of person her mother was later in his previous life? He let her mother do whatever she wanted, including herself.

Gu Juncheng patted her head. "Anyway, you're in charge now, so whatever you say goes."

The moment he raised his hand, Lin Qingping saw his vest move slightly, revealing a red mark underneath.

"What's wrong with you?" She pulled open his vest to take a look.

Good guy, you won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.

Why does he have so many red marks on his body? Was he stung by something?

"Where...where did you go this morning? What bit you? Or is it an allergic reaction?" Lin Qingping was getting trypophobia just looking at it; her chest and abdomen were covered in red marks!

He smiled and said, "Yes, I got bitten."

"What bit you? A mosquito? There are so many mosquitoes in our house." Lin Qingping asked suspiciously. "Ever since I came to the North, I feel that there are far fewer mosquitoes than in the South."

"Hmm, a mosquito, a really big mosquito!" He said with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

Lin Qingping: ? ? ?

Something's off about that expression!

"What happened? Tell me the truth!" she said, her face hardening.

He was both amused and exasperated. "The perpetrator is going to interrogate the victim?"

Lin Qingping's eyes widened as she pointed at herself, "Me?"

"Who else could it be? I couldn't have bitten it myself, could I? I couldn't have reached it!" He lifted his vest to show her her masterpiece.

“I…how could I bite you? I…” Lin Qingping bit her lip, frowned, and shook her head desperately.

She tried hard to recall, and she did remember that Gu Juncheng carried her into the room. Her impression was that they had a passionate night together, but she couldn't remember the specific details at all.

"You won't admit it?" He sat down and, mimicking her actions from yesterday, pinched her face into a gold ingot shape. "As expected, your drinking manners are terrible; you'll deny it once you wake up."

She slapped his hand, "Impossible! I could never do such a thing! You're framing me!"

"Then how do you explain this outfit of mine?" he asked, pointing to himself.

Lin Qingping glanced at it and indeed couldn't explain it...

He frowned and remained silent.

He took her hand and touched each of his red marks. "Yesterday, I don't know who it was, but they kept touching me like this, biting me every time they touched me, saying, 'This is mine, I'm marking it. This is mine too, I'm marking it...'"

Lin Qingping was stunned.

How can it be!

"If you keep cheating, next time I'll record everything you say!"

Lin Qingping's face immediately turned bright red. She quickly withdrew her hand, shrank back into the blanket, pulled it over her head, and hid herself inside, refusing to come out.

She now believes it, believes she really did it, but she's too ashamed to face anyone anymore...

Gu Juncheng was pulling at her blanket and calling her from outside.

She pulled the blanket tighter and refused to go out.

Then, she felt Gu Juncheng pull her and the blanket into his arms. With her hands trapped under the blanket, she couldn't struggle anymore. He then used one hand to pull her face out from under the blanket.

Her face was flushed, her long hair was disheveled, and she was pretending to be dead with her eyes closed.

Gu Juncheng laughed, "What does it matter? Aren't you quite... brave?"

Lin Qingping: ...

Doesn't she understand what he means? He's saying she's usually quite shameless!

She closed her eyes and shook her head violently, "I'm a giant in words, but a dwarf in deeds!"

He laughed out loud, "No, no, no, you were a giant in action yesterday too."

"Ahhh... Don't say anymore!" If she says any more, she'll become a coward again.

"Alright, alright, don't be shy. A real man has already done it, what is there to be ashamed of?" He used one hand to smooth her messy hair.

She's about to cry her eyes out! "I'm just a woman, I don't deserve this!"

He laughed again and whispered something in her ear.

Lin Qingping's eyes snapped open. "Gu Juncheng, what did you say?"

Gu Juncheng looked at her without saying a word, a deep smile in his eyes.

"Well, I thought you, Gu Juncheng, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, were an honest man. Turns out you're a scoundrel too!" Lin Qingping's cheeks were burning.

Gu Juncheng chuckled, "Are we still going to talk about the house today? Are you planning to laze around here all day?"

Oh right! I almost forgot about the important matter!

"It's all your fault!" Lin Qingping snorted.

Gu Juncheng smiled faintly, "Alright, alright, it's all my fault!"

Lin Qingping: ...

"That's just a perfunctory response! Your attitude in admitting your mistake is terrible!" Lin Qingping tapped the firm muscles on his shoulder.

"So what should we do? Write a self-criticism? Stand at attention?" He whispered in her ear again.

"You're really something! You're so improper!" Lin Qingping pushed him away forcefully, blushed, opened the door, and went downstairs.

Lin Qingping had actually arranged for the landlord to come to her house today to discuss things. She even told Sister Zhao that she wouldn't be going to the shop this morning and asked Sister Zhao to tell her second sister at school to come back.

Around 10:30, my second sister and the landlord arrived at roughly the same time.

Seeing this, the second sister wondered what had happened. She sat down next to her older sister and asked, "Sister, what's wrong?" She knew the landlord. If it was just about paying rent, why would she need to come here?

Lin Qingping then briefly explained the matter to her.

Not only was the second sister taken aback, but even the landlord was shocked. The older sister was buying a house for her younger sister and talking about it in front of her son-in-law. Wasn't she afraid that her son-in-law would have objections?

The second sister was frantic and secretly peeked into the kitchen.

Her brother-in-law is washing vegetables in the kitchen!

"Sister, how can you do this? I have my own future to build, you've already helped me enough! I don't need you to buy me a house!" She lowered her voice, afraid that Gu Juncheng in the kitchen would hear her.

Lin Qingping patted her hand, "Buying a house in the future might not be difficult for you, but how could you be so lucky as to buy one with your sister?"

The second sister panicked when she heard her older sister speaking so loudly. "Sister, please speak softly! Are you afraid your husband won't hear you?"

"What's the big deal?" Lin Qingping turned around and called to Gu Juncheng, "Gu Juncheng, come out here for a moment."
