Chapter 172: Are Your Eyes Uncomfortable?
"Alright, alright, cut the cheese, man. I'm not into that stuff!"
Su Chen hugged him briefly before letting go and glanced at him with a cold eye:
"So, what was that all about just now?"
"Just now? Oh, she's a flight attendant I picked up on the airplane."
The handsome man said nonchalantly.
The moment Lin Ruoxue heard this, she nearly fainted. What kind of person was this?
In just the short span of two or three hours on the plane, he had managed to pick up a flight attendant.
Not only that, but they had managed to put on a live show right at the front gate upon disembarking the plane!
That speed, that progress was ridiculously fast!
"I didn't even know she was a flight attendant. I was asking what you were doing at the front gate just now. Couldn't you wait?"
If it had been any normal day, Su Chen wouldn't have said anything, since he himself wasn't much better in the past.
But today was different, today he had come with Lin Ruoxue!
Seeing such a scene the first time they met, could Lin Ruoxue have a good impression of him?
Wouldn't she think, 'A person is known by the company he keeps,' and assume he wasn't any better? Find more to read at empire
"Ah, boss, you have no idea," the joker said somewhat gloomily, "This chick insisted on introducing me to her parents as soon as we got off the plane. Just kidding, we just met, and she's already talking about meeting her parents. Isn't that going to scare me to death?"
"I refused, and she got upset, so I had to use that master move you taught me. Just like you said, 'There isn't a woman that a long French kiss can't fix.'"
The joker didn't notice Su Chen winking and gesturing at him and proudly blurted out:
"So I decided to go to the hotel later tonight to really comfort her!"
"Are you done?!"
Su Chen couldn't bear it anymore. This guy, totally lacking a filter, did he not see that there was someone else standing next to him?
The joker certainly did notice, and was momentarily stunned!
It's just that since he had just met Su Chen, he hadn't had the chance to flirt; he even thought Lin Ruoxue was just a passerby!
"What's up, boss?" the joker asked, bewildered by Su Chen's shout, smacking his lips, "Isn't this all the stuff you taught me?"
Su Chen felt extremely frustrated!
He had known that this guy was definitely going to cause trouble, but he hadn't expected him to stir up such a big mess so quickly!
He hadn't even had the chance to introduce Lin Ruoxue properly before his antics had almost completely exposed him!
As soon as the joker spoke out, Su Chen felt the air around him drop several degrees, and his back turned cold!
"I'm fine!" Su Chen said irritably.
"Su Chen, are you really okay?" Lin Ruoxue looked at him profoundly and said, "Why were you blinking so much just now? Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
"If your eyes are really uncomfortable, you should see a doctor."
Lin Ruoxue's voice was unnaturally gentle, but the gentler she was, the more Su Chen felt a chill!
"No, really, I'm fine. A bug just flew into my eye a moment ago."
Su Chen said sheepishly, while pretending to rub his eye.
The joker watching this scene couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Is this true? Who is this woman?
The usually fearless Hall Master seemed to be quite afraid of her!
Even in front of Eniel, the Hall Master never seemed this subdued!
"This is..."
The joker asked Su Chen curiously.
Su Chen gave him a cold look and retorted:
"Your sister-in-law!"
"What?" The joker looked like he had seen a ghost, his eyes wide as he stared at Su Chen, "Boss, you got married?"
The clown harshly slapped his own mouth, Look at what I just said!
I actually said those things in front of my brother's wife, no wonder the boss reacted that way!
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was spouting nonsense just now, don't take it seriously!"
The clown's expression suddenly turned solemn:
"I swear, the boss never taught me any of that, I made it all up!"
Su Chen's expression darkened even more. Is saying this now of any use?
Lin Ruoxue isn't a fool, saying this now only makes things worse!
What a pig of a teammate!
Yet, Lin Ruoxue's response completely surprised Su Chen. She extended her slim hand and gently shook hands with the clown, then asked:
"How should I address you?"
Lin Ruoxue always felt that calling someone a clown was impolite, especially when he was such a handsome man—it felt even more awkward!
Her beautiful face blushed, as she was called sister-in-law for the first time in her life, she couldn't help but feel a bit shy!
She initially thought she would find it hard to accept, but as it turned out, it wasn't that hard to accept at all, in fact, she was somewhat enjoying the title!
"Sister-in-law, you can just call me Clown."
The clown laughed goofily, after all, this sister-in-law is truly beautiful, comparing favorably with Eniel, even surpassing her in some ways!
Only such a woman would be worthy of the Hall Master, the clown thought to himself.
Of course, that was from the perspective of Dongfang people, since the clown was also from Huaxia.
No wonder the Hall Master is willing to stay here and isn't keen on returning to the Temple. It turns out there's a beauty accompanying him!
"Then I'll call you Brother Clown," Lin Ruoxue said warmly, smiling gently, her eyes clear like a pool of fresh water as she looked at him, "Brother Clown, don't worry, I of course believe what you say, you wouldn't lie to your sister-in-law, right?"
"Of, of course."
The clown couldn't look directly into Lin Ruoxue's eyes, slightly guilty in his response.
That sister-in-law's gaze was really powerful!
Being looked at like that, it's really hard to lie!
Su Chen felt his nerves were a bit frazzled. What was Lin Ruoxue playing at?
"Come on, you must be hungry, let me take you to eat,"
Lin Ruoxue said enthusiastically, calling the clown to get into the car.
Naturally, Su Chen was the driver, Lin Ruoxue sat in the passenger seat, and the clown sat in the back.
The clown immediately felt an immense honor, for it was the Hall Master himself driving for him!
After returning to the Temple, he would definitely boast about this! The clown joyfully thought...
The car soon stopped in front of a high-end restaurant. Su Chen had initially planned to find just any food stall, as there was really no need for formality between him and the clown.
But Lin Ruoxue insisted and would not agree, saying how could she skimp on their first meal with Brother Clown?
With no choice, Su Chen could only drive here.
It was the peak lunch hour, and the place was already full. Su Chen and his companions waited ten minutes before getting a free table.
Once seated, Lin Ruoxue asked the clown what he liked to eat, to which the clown simply replied, "Anything."
So, Lin Ruoxue ordered seven or eight dishes, the restaurant's specialties, then handed the menu to the waiter.
Lin Ruoxue thought the eight dishes would be enough for three people, but unexpectedly, the clown alone polished off five or six dishes and ate three bowls of rice.
"Brother Clown, you came back from Africa, didn't you?" Lin Ruoxue asked in surprise.
Of course, it was just a joking remark.
But, with his mouth full and without looking up, the clown replied:
"How did you know?" I just did come back from Africa. I was there to kill..."
The word "kill" had barely left the clown's mouth when he immediately felt an intense scrutiny shooting towards him from the side...
