Chapter 31: A Lack of Enthusiasm for Meals Indicates Inferior Intelligence
At this moment, it seemed that as long as Shen Yuchu even slightly closed her eyes, Lin Xuan could understand her next move.
Shen Yuchu looked at He Shaoyan, who was still sitting on the ground, and said, “Doctor He, you…”
Lin Xuan glanced sideways, and Shen Yuchu seized the opportunity to slip under his arm. This sudden movement caused her to lose her footing.
Sister Zhang and Assistant Xiao Wang quickly helped her, but Shen Yuchu’s ankle twisted in pain.
“Hiss…”
He Shaoyan finally got up from the ground, grabbed an ice pack, and applied it to her foot. “Let’s go to the hospital. I’ll take a good look at it.”
Sister Zhang and Assistant Xiao Wang helped her leave.
Lin Xuan: …
He angrily slammed the car door.
Two loud “bangs” echoed.
Captain Wang looked at him, “Captain Lin, we…”
“You guys go back first, I have something to do!”
Having said that, Lin Xuan immediately chased after Shen Yuchu.
Now, no matter whose car Shen Yuchu got into, he had to follow.
Otherwise, Shen Yuchu would run away.
However, as he ran to catch up, Shen Yuchu quickly closed the car door and locked it.
Lin Xuan: …
He knocked on the car door twice, “Shen Yuchu, open the door.”
“Shen Yuchu, open the door!”
Shen Yuchu kept the door closed and told Sister Zhang, “Drive!”
Because of the delay, some people had already left, and the road to the kindergarten was mostly cleared.
Lin Xuan had to return to Captain Wang’s car, which hadn’t driven away yet.
He told Captain Wang, “Follow that car. No matter where she goes, we have to follow.”
“Yes!”
Sister Zhang drove to her doorstep. After she and her daughter got out of the car, Assistant Xiao Wang took over the driving.
Shen Yuchu had already seen the military vehicle following her.
Xiao Wang was also puzzled, “Ms. Shen, what does this person mean?”
“He’s crazy!”
“Then what should we do?”
Shen Yuchu rubbed her temples, “How would I know? Let’s circle the roundabout ahead about ten times.”
“…Huh?” Although Assistant Xiao Wang was confused, she still did as instructed.
Captain Wang, who was following the car, was completely baffled.
“Captain Lin, what are they doing? They’ve circled this roundabout so many times? They’re not leaving?”
Lin Xuan: …
He furrowed his brow, “Keep following them. Shen Yuchu is cunning. She must be trying to take advantage of our lowered guard to escape. Don’t let your guard down and let them get away.”
Captain Wang: …
Is this his future sister-in-law?
It feels like we’re chasing a criminal.
This is definitely not the right way to pursue a wife.
Who chases their wife by circling a city roundabout?
Lin Xuan leaned against the car window, staring through his own window at the other car.
Shen Yuchu, what is she doing now?
—
Sure enough, Shen Yuchu quickly made a phone call. As the sales department director, she had many people she could mobilize.
A few minutes later, another white car, almost identical to Shen Yuchu’s, started circling the roundabout.
After a short while, another car arrived, also circling the roundabout.
Soon, another white car appeared.
And within minutes, yet another white car arrived…
Captain Wang’s car was surrounded on three sides, then front and back, and he was forced to circle the roundabout.
“Captain Lin, this is…”
“What does this mean?”
Lin Xuan rubbed his temples. Only three words were in his mind: Shen Yuchu!
“Shen Yuchu!” he muttered.
“It must be her, her scheme!”
“It must be her idea!”
Captain Wang couldn’t drive away, surrounded as he was by cars.
He didn’t dare accelerate, afraid of hitting the cars around him.
“Captain Lin, now, let alone stopping, even getting out is impossible, we’re surrounded by cars. How long will this go on?”
Lin Xuan looked out the window and suddenly saw a white car in the distance driving away through the woods.
Captain Wang hadn’t yet rounded the roundabout.
Lin Xuan told Captain Wang, “Let’s go back to the base.”
“Captain Lin, there are cars everywhere, it’ll take a while to get back.”
Lin Xuan frowned, “Shen Yuchu, she actually used a trick on me!”
Captain Wang waited until the surrounding cars had almost all completed their circles. Finally, his military vehicle was no longer surrounded.
He slowly drove around the roundabout and headed towards the military base.
Captain Wang couldn’t help but marvel in his heart, this future sister-in-law was truly amazing!
She completely outmaneuvered Captain Lin!
Interesting!
Very interesting!
After returning, Lin Xuan completely ignored Li Yingying, who had been sick in the car from all the circling.
Captain Wang also disliked Li Chunqiu and her daughter, especially Li Chunqiu, who acted one way in front of Lin Xuan and another behind his back.
In front of Captain Lin, she was very virtuous.
But when Lin Xuan was away, she acted like the “sister-in-law,” often ordering those around when Lin Xuan wasn’t present.
Sometimes, they tolerated Li Chunqiu out of respect for Lin Xuan.
However, Li Yingying was extremely impolite. When Lin Xuan was too busy to pick her up from school, she wouldn’t even say “thank you, uncle” when he finally arrived.
Instead, she would sometimes act arrogantly and run to Lin Xuan to complain!
Now, Lin Xuan ordered her to be put in the detention room.
Captain Wang didn’t hesitate to drag Li Yingying away.
Li Yingying, being young, didn’t know what a detention room was. When Captain Wang dragged her in, he told the security personnel, “This child caused trouble at school, deliberately tripped a classmate. She also gave the children nicknames and threw a brick at a classmate’s injured foot. Captain Lin said to put her in detention.”
The security personnel opened the door to the dark room and shoved her inside.
As Captain Wang left, he paused, “Follow our security procedures, no special treatment!”
“Yes!”
Captain Wang left after saying that.
At 6:30 that evening, Lin Xuan sat in the canteen. Before him was a full plate of six dishes and two soups.
Two meat dishes: braised pork chops and sweet and sour pork ribs.
Two semi-meat dishes: wood ear stir-fried with eggs and shredded fish stir-fried with long beans.
Two vegetable dishes: green vegetables with mushrooms and celery stir-fried with carrots.
There were also various staple foods: steamed buns, flower rolls, layered pancakes, whole-wheat pancakes, sorghum cornbread, and baozi. Dinner included 6 types of staple foods to choose from according to personal preference.
And two porridges: preserved egg and lean meat porridge, pumpkin porridge (choose one).
And two soups: tomato and egg soup, seaweed egg soup (choose one).
Lin Xuan casually picked up a bowl of seaweed egg soup and a flower roll. They were right in front of him, but he had no appetite.
On the other hand, Zhao Cheng, the company commander sitting beside him, ate heartily, slurping his soup loudly. He even nudged Captain Wang with his elbow: “What’s wrong with our battalion commander? He’s not enthusiastic about his meal?”
Captain Wang: …
Zhao Cheng: “The book says, people who don’t eat enthusiastically have lower IQs!”
Captain Wang…
