Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband

Chapter 2148: Support the bold to death, starve the timid to death

Due to conditioned reflexes, all three of them suddenly fell to the other side, and now they all want to push the boat back.

However, because the three people veered to the left and then to the right at the same time, the boat began to rock even more violently.

The three people cried out in alarm, their hands trembling as the small boat rocked violently from side to side. It was terrifying...

Seeing that the time was right, Lin Chen grabbed one of them with each hand and held them tightly in his arms. The small cabin couldn't accommodate three people lying side by side.

Lin Chen is now sandwiched in the middle, with the two of them basically having half their bodies pressed against Lin Chen's chest.

"Don't move! Don't move! If you move again, the boat will really capsize!"

The two girls were so frightened their hearts were pounding. Lin Chen could feel their rapid breathing as he held them in his arms...

It took a full minute for the small boat to stabilize, and only then did the two little girls breathe a sigh of relief.

However, they both became shy at the same time, as their current position was far too ambiguous. Lin Chen continued to hold her tightly...

Tian Yezi and He Xiulian exchanged a glance and then closed their eyes again. The three of them remained silent, quietly enjoying the warm afternoon sun and the gentle lake breeze.

Under Lin Chen's mental control, the small boat swayed gently, avoiding other boats that tried to approach them. This beautiful scene couldn't be disturbed by outsiders...

They only sat up at the same time after Lin Chen's hands started to wander.

"Where...where were you touching just now? You pervert..."

After He Xiulian finished speaking, she chuckled again, quickly tidied her hair, and turned away, not daring to look at Lin Chen.

After getting up, Tian Yezi first observed her surroundings and thankfully there were no other small boats nearby.

"Stop fooling around! Look, our oars are drifting away!"

During the recent rocking motion, the oars were thrown into the water, but Lin Chen didn't explain his earlier lewd behavior. Instead, he sat up and started rolling up his sleeves to splash around in the lake... What's wrong with touching it? You can touch it back too, then we'll be even.

"Row quickly, it'll be a problem without oars!"

The three of them ignored the little incident from earlier and instead worked together again to retrieve their oars.

People are like that, always testing the waters; otherwise, there wouldn't be the saying "to take an inch and then a mile."

They could accept Lin Chen's clumsy actions just now, but what follows is even more conquest and expansion.

After some paddling, the three of them finally retrieved the oar. Lin Chen looked at them with a smile and said, "The three of us must not sit on one side anymore. If the boat really capsizes, it will be a big problem!"

At this moment, Tian Yezi suddenly asked, "If it had really flipped over just now, Brother Lin Chen, who would you have saved?"

Faced with such a problem, Lin Chen did not hesitate at all, after all, saving a hundred people at the same time was not difficult.

"Of course I'll rescue both of you. Neither of you can swim, right? And I'm not bragging, but you believe me if I dive right to the lakeside?"

Lin Chen's answer made the two girls feel sweet inside, but they didn't believe that their brother Lin Chen could be such a good swimmer.

"A man's words are deceitful. We don't believe you can dive to shore..."

"Exactly, it's hundreds of meters away! We can't afford to pay for it if it doesn't float up."

Lin Chen certainly couldn't demonstrate it to them now, but everyone in Guanhuyuan knew it was true. Longtan Lake was the Lin family's backyard, and every summer night, Lin Chen would often take them to play in the water.

"You actually don't believe me? Just wait a few months, when I teach you how to swim, you'll see."

This time it was Tian Yezi's turn to retort: ​​"You scoundrel, who wants to learn to swim from you? Do you think we're stupid? You're definitely up to no good..."

Tian Yezi's stubbornness only fueled Lin Chen's fighting spirit, and six months later, he would give her a wedding night on a boat on Longtan Lake.

While the three of them were joking around, Lin Chen could hear the conversation between Zhao Lichun and Xue Hongmei in the distance.

Zhao Lichun was also quite capable; he told Zhong Zhengguo all about his embarrassing experiences at the steel rolling mill. However, he didn't mention anything about his own situation, instead claiming that he was entirely implicated by Zhong Zhengguo.

Lin Chen finally understood why these two guys had fallen out; it turned out it was all because of Zhao Ruilong's mother!

Normally, more than twenty years later, when Zhao Lichun became the mayor of Jingzhou, Chen Yanshi would be the deputy mayor and police chief. It seems this Xue family girl played a significant role…

"Brother Lin Chen, rowing is too dangerous. Why don't you take us to see other places?"

Lin Chen saw several workers from the steel rolling mill at the small dock, so he pointed to the opposite bank of the lake.

“No problem, we’ll go ashore from there. Someone will come to collect the boat soon. There are probably some acquaintances who know me at the dock, so I can’t let them see me taking two beauties on a picnic now.”

Upon hearing that Lin Chen knew someone on the other side, the two girls immediately agreed to disembark from the other side. They couldn't let anyone see them…

"So you're scared now? You were just touching me inappropriately, aren't you afraid we'll report you?"

The two girls were threatening Lin Chen with a cheerful expression when they said this, and it was obvious that they had no intention of doing anything.

However, such threats were no match for Secretary Lin.

"The bold get rich, the timid starve. Besides, to die beneath a peony is to be romantic even as a ghost. Isn't that right, Tian Mudan...?"

Tian Yezi immediately lowered her head and chuckled to herself when she thought about becoming Bai Mudan.

"You smooth-talking bastard, are you sure we won't dare?"

Lin Chen thought to himself, "I'm just a smooth talker, okay? Jia Dongxu and the people in the courtyard are the real smooth talkers. They're not even in the same league. You'll see how amazing your brother is once you try him."

……

Near noon

The commotion in the courtyard finally came to an end, and Yang Weimin and the others received five cents in compensation for Jia Zhangshi's medical expenses.

The little chick was initially quite defiant, only offering two cents and refusing to pay a penny more. However, with the return of Qiangzi and Cai Quanwu… it seemed like a fight was about to break out, but Zhao Lichun was out visiting his wife and wasn't home. Ji Cheng's side was also short-handed…

Zhong Zhengguo had no choice but to compromise and gave Jia Zhangshi five mao to settle the matter.

"Jia Zhangshi, don't be so arrogant. If you deliberately block my way again, I'll run you over. Bah! Take the money and buy your medicine! Don't ever come looking for me again."

Jia Zhangshi only got a minor scrape, so five cents was a bargain for her! After all, Liu Haizhong and the others who worked in machinery were all covered in scratches every day, so what was a little bump and scrape?

"Go to hell! I'd rather die than you, and you're still so self-righteous after hitting someone. If it weren't for the fact that we live in the same neighborhood, you'd be dragging me to the hospital for treatment."

Seeing that the two sides were about to start arguing again, Liu Haizhong hurriedly asked Qiangzi to help his wife home.

"We'll start preparing for the big feast this afternoon, so stop this nonsense. Now everyone go home and disperse!"

Today, Zhong Zhengguo missed the best opportunity to stop Zhao Lichun because of Jia Zhangshi's interference.

The gears of fate have returned to their original course... Zhao Ruilong's mother is still his first wife.
