Chapter 29: Su He: Die, you bastard!

Liu Ruyan looked exactly like a customer at a brothel looking for a good time—and the kind that doesn't intend to pay.

Furious, Su He dragged Liu Ruyan down and pinned her to the sofa for a thorough thrashing.

It was only then that Lin Mo realized he had fallen into that woman's trap. Even setting aside her hidden motives, even if she didn't have any, what then?

Based on his cousin's current behavior, she likely wouldn't misunderstand him as some lecherous creep; instead, she would probably pick a fight with Liu Ruyan, thinking this "old cucumber" was trying to seduce her little brother.

Truly a biological cousin—blood is thicker than water, and she was clearly taking his side.

"Help! Mercy! I was wrong... I was wrong!"

Liu Ruyan was pinned to the sofa, her oversized short-sleeved shirt pulled into a mess, exposing a large expanse of snowy white skin on her stomach.

Her two fair feet kicked wildly, her toes curling inward, showing how hard she was struggling to endure the moment, her mouth full of pleas for mercy.

"Wrong? I knew you were up to no good! Fine, so you come to my house for a good time? You're a big boss, it's not like you're short on cash. If you're that thirsty, go find a male model at a club!" Su He said while continuing to pinch Liu Ruyan.

"How can you compare the two? There's a difference between a respectable lady and a club!" Liu Ruyan retorted.

Su He: ┗|｀O′|┛ Aaaargh~~

"Fine, fine, fine. So you're dragging a respectable lady into this? She's my biological brother!"

"Cousin!"

Despite being beaten quite badly, Liu Ruyan still took the opportunity to correct Su He.

Besides, whether they were biological or cousins, what was the difference? But she was definitely tender!

Su He: "Arrogant!" (A roar of indignation)

After a long while, having finished with Liu Ruyan, Su He patted her brother on the shoulder and said, "Your decision to stay at the university is a very good one. Society out there is indeed dangerous. You have to protect yourself in the future, especially from old geezers like this one. Stay away from her!"

Lin Mo's mouth twitched at this. As expected, the "value" of Lyu Xiaobu was rising; watching women fight was indeed a sight to behold, especially when both were good-looking.

At that moment, Liu Ruyan got up from the sofa, tidied her clothes slightly, put back her rimless glasses, and walked over with a graceful gait.

"What kind of talk is that? I'm a wealthy woman after all. As the saying goes, 'If life gets too heavy, you might as well move in with your big sister.'"

Su He didn't bother fighting her physically anymore. Instead, she opened her phone, played an audio clip, and turned the volume to maximum. In the next second—

"I am Liu Ruyan's simp. To chase after her, I neglected my studies and failed my college entrance exams. Because she doesn't like chubby guys, I stayed up late to lose weight and eventually died of exhaustion."

"I filed for divorce from my wife, Liu Ruyan, even giving up my five-year-old daughter, simply because my daughter wanted Makoto Itou to be her father."

"Liu Ruyan left me because of her childhood sweetheart. When her sweetheart returned to the country after his divorce, I was left forgotten in the pouring rain."

Lin Mo:???

Liu Ruyan:...

He had to admit, being blindsided like that felt strange; Liu Ruyan's beautiful face flushed with anger.

For some reason, every time she heard these kinds of web novel tropes, she felt a sense of helplessness, as if she couldn't reach through the screen to slap the author.

"See? So what if you're a wealthy woman? How many men end up with you in the end?" Su He held up her phone triumphantly.

"Forget it, Xiao Mo has already agreed to be mine anyway," Liu Ruyan stated, indicating her goal was achieved and nothing else mattered.

Su He: →_→

"What are you looking at? It's not like I'm not paying!" Liu Ruyan said, tilting her chin up.

Seeing his cousin's sharp gaze turn toward him, Lin Mo quickly explained, "Sis, don't listen to her nonsense. I recently got something good. After using it, the skin on your face gets much better. That's what she wants."

Hearing this, Su He froze, then asked in disbelief, "Really? Is it that miraculous?"

"Just look at me to find out. The effect is quite obvious!" Lin Mo said helplessly.

"Damn, you found such good stuff and didn't think to show your dear sister? I've wasted my affection on you! I want some too!"

There it was. He knew that as soon as he spoke, this would be the result. Fortunately, his cousin wasn't an outsider.

"Fine. Tomorrow I'll ask President Liu to bring some for you too."

"Call me Sister, you stinky little brother!" The "Senior Version" of Liu Ruyan got too into character and stomped her foot.

Su He: "Go away and stop being so flirtatious."

After saying that, she pulled Lin Mo aside to ask in detail. After all, a woman's concern for her face far exceeds a man's imagination.

When she learned that the skin could be significantly improved in just seven days, that there were only two sets available, and that they couldn't be bought elsewhere, Su He couldn't sit still and pulled him along.

The meal was almost finished, so why stay? As for letting Liu Ruyan bring it to her, she was afraid this "old cucumber" would embezzle it.

Money? Liu Ruyan didn't care; she had plenty of that. But such a good item was a rare treasure.

Soon, the three of them changed clothes and took a taxi straight to his apartment complex.

This was the first time the two women had visited Lin Mo's place. Although the complex was old and the apartments weren't large, the interior was quite tidy.

"Here, these are the last two sets. Remember, this is a seven-day supply. If you use more, I don't have any extras, and you can't buy them anywhere else."

Lin Mo handed the two small porcelain jars to them. Fortunately, he had spotted this business opportunity when he bought them last time and bought two extra, otherwise, it would have been difficult to give them as gifts.

The two women quickly took them, opened the lids, and both frowned slightly upon smelling them.

Su He: "Why does it smell a bit like expired honey? It hasn't expired, has it?"

Liu Ruyan also spoke up: "Is this really the stuff? The quality looks quite poor."

"If you don't want it, give it back. I don't really want to give it away," Lin Mo said, reaching out his hand.

Liu Ruyan leaned back tactically. "Who said I don't want it? Even if it is expired, I have to try it. Auntie Jiang said it works, so it should be fine. Tell me, how much? I'll transfer it to you right now!"

Having secured the goods, Liu Ruyan was instantly happy. As for the money, if Yuan Meng could afford it, how could she not?

Hearing this, Lin Mo glanced at his cousin and waved his hand helplessly. "Forget it, just use it. I'm not a medicine salesman. But I'm telling you, these are the last two sets, and I'm out. If anyone asks, don't say I gave them to you."

It wasn't that he was generous—if it were just Liu Ruyan, he would have demanded money because he was a poor guy—but his cousin was here. It wasn't like someone had offered a hundred thousand for a single set.

Liu Ruyan naturally didn't care, but his cousin might. Fortunately, he now had a shopping interface and plenty of opportunities to make money; he didn't need to squeeze her this one time.

Su He didn't know the value of the item, so she had no psychological burden and accepted it directly. In contrast, Liu Ruyan, being sharp as a tack, said with a knowing smile

"You're really not taking money? I'm a wealthy woman, you know?"

"Then just give me a few hundred million!" Lin Mo countered. This woman was playing dumb!

Hearing this, Su He didn't even take it seriously and simply rolled her eyes. Instead, the corners of Liu Ruyan's mouth curled up slightly as she winked at him and smiled

"Are you giving it to me, or am I giving it to you?"

Su He: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

"You're being suggestive again! Go to hell!"

Lin Mo:...
