Chapter 239: Commander Lu's Self-Torture Scheme
Jin Shenglin: "Shaoang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is everything going well at the military headquarters?"
Jin Shenglin was a general who retired early in his life. Even after retirement, he still cared about the army. He would receive news as long as there was a slight disturbance. He hadn't seen anyone from the military in the past few days, nor had he received any news, so he was always uneasy.
Before lying, Lu Shaoang touched his nose habitually and said, "No, everything is normal."
That matter was top secret in the military, and no one knew about it except a few people with higher ranks within the military.
Even those who had informants after his retirement were not allowed to receive the information, so as not to cause panic and the news was completely blocked.
"That's good. I've been feeling uneasy lately. I feel at ease as long as you are around." Jin Shenglin said with satisfaction.
"By the way, Yi Yi." After exchanging a few words with Lu Shaoang, Jin Shenglin's attention returned to Su Jinyi again.
"I heard from Jinshu that you are doing a research project abroad with several professors. How is it going? Are you still short of funds for the experiment?"
Only when the funds are in place can those who do research have the energy to do it.
"enough……"
"I have already considered the funding issue." Just when Su Jinyi was about to find an excuse to prevaricate, Jin Jinshu suddenly appeared and rescued her.
"Dad, you don't have to worry about these. I have already solved them."
"elder brother?"
Su Jinyi was a little surprised. Wasn't he still at work at this time?
And ever since she was exposed in Serdora, she hasn't figured out how to get along with Jin Jinshu.
"Why are you so surprised? You didn't even tell me you were coming. If the housekeeper hadn't called me, I wouldn't have known you were here." Jin Jinshu said somewhat dissatisfiedly.
"Aren't I afraid of affecting your work?"
Jin Jinshu sat next to Su Jinyi and said softly, "It doesn't matter. You are more important than anything else."
Lu Shaoang glanced at him casually, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"Thank you, brother, for coming back to see me." Su Jinyi said politely.
Jin Jinshu seemed not to notice her embarrassment and kept on asking, "Why are you being so polite to me? We are a family."
Seeing that she was in trouble, Lu Shaoang immediately drew his attention to himself, "Master Jin, long time no see, I'll toast you with tea instead of wine."
"Mr. Lu, you're too polite." Jin Jinshu said as he drank a cup of tea.
The two looked at each other, and the emotions in each other's eyes were self-evident.
"Yiyi, you just came back, take a rest first. Master Lu and I have a private talk."
Su Jinyi looked at Jin Jinshu deeply and nodded.
"I'll go too and chat with Shaoang." Jin Shenglin frowned, glanced at Jin Jinshu, and then stood up.
He knew Jin Jinshu best and was afraid that it would be more than just a few words between them.
The three of them came to the study. Lu Shaoang stood upright in front of the desk and spoke first:
"I'm going to propose to Yi Yi in the next few days. You guys have raised her, so I really need your blessing. I hope you can be mentally prepared in advance."
"I have completed all the necessary preparations. Someone will come to the Jin family tomorrow to review them for you."
Jin Jinshu's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said in a cold tone: "If you dare, repeat it again!"
Lu Shaoang met his gaze without flinching, and answered firmly and seriously: "I want to marry Su Jinyi."
Jin Jinshu roared, "You dare!" Then he punched Lu Shaoang's face like a gust of wind. Each punch was full of power and anger. Lu Shaoang's head tilted back suddenly, and his face immediately became red and swollen, but his eyes remained calm without any fluctuation.
Jin Jinshu seemed to have suddenly lost his mind, and his neatly groomed hair became messy. His punches and kicks fell on Lu Shaoang's body densely and swiftly like a storm. His movements were swift and fierce, and each blow landed precisely on Lu Shaoang's vital points, as if he wanted to vent all his anger and dissatisfaction.
Lu Shaoang was forced to retreat repeatedly until he reached the table. But he had no intention of resisting and just silently endured Jinshu's attack. Whatever he touched, he would immediately restore it to its original state.
Lu Shaoang neither dodged nor fought back. He just stood there quietly, enduring every punch and palm strike from Jinshu. Every punch hit him hard, making a dull sound.
Seeing that Lu Shaoang still didn't react, Jinshu's fist finally stopped in mid-air. His breathing became rapid, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. However, apart from the redness and swelling on Lu Shaoang's face, there seemed to be no other changes.
Jinshu's eyes widened and he asked angrily, "Why didn't you fight back?!"
Lu Shaoang raised his hand and gently wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: "You have raised Su Jinyi, and I owe you this."
"The first time and the last time."
Jin Jinshu was so angry that his chest kept rising and falling. What did he do wrong? He was obviously the one who understood Yi Yi the best, and only he was worthy of Yi Yi!
"What are you angry about?" Lu Shaoang stared at Jin Jinshu coldly and said, "Don't forget that she is your sister."
"Enough!" Jin Jinshu interrupted him angrily.
It was as if no one had seen through his last bit of dignity, making him feel extremely embarrassed.
What was once my favorite name now sounds extremely ironic when spoken by others.
"I'm not discussing this with you. I'm just letting you know." Lu Shaoang said and turned to leave.
Jin Shenglin watched the two of them fooling around without saying a word. Jin Jinshu would not hide anything from him, so it was easy for him to guess what he was thinking.
But he also understood Su Jinyi and would not allow Lu Shaoang to get close to her if she didn't like him.
If the two of them are in love with each other, he doesn't care about the worldly opinion and just wants Jin Jinshu to be happy.
But after all, it’s just if...
Su Jinyi guessed that the conversation between the few people would not go smoothly, but he did not expect it to be so serious as to involve physical violence.
She looked at Lu Shaoang's slightly red and swollen face and frowned slightly. "Did you fight?"
"I got beaten."
Su Jinyi said coldly: "Lu Shaoang, do you have a masochistic tendency?"
"It was my fault in the first place..." Lu Shaoang looked at Su Jin with grievance.
As long as he acted coquettishly and pretended to be pitiful, Su Jinyi couldn't do anything to him.
She softened her tone a little: "What should we do now? Go home?"
The unintentional "going home" obviously pleased Lu Shaoang. The corners of his mouth slightly raised and he nodded cautiously.
Now both sides need to calm down. It is not a solution to stay here any longer. Su Jinyi said hello to the housekeeper and left with Lu Shaoang.
Lu Shaoang sat in the passenger seat, suppressing the corners of his mouth that were curling up wildly, and said pitifully: "Yi Yi, I'm sorry, I caused you to not be able to spend time with your family..."
"Save your energy to go home and don't die on the way." Su Jinyi interrupted him mercilessly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lu Shaoang said softly with a smile.
Su Jin suddenly felt that the air conditioning in the car was not turned on enough and her face felt hot.
Lu Shaoang took in her reaction and curled his lips in satisfaction.
For her, the best form of medical beauty is to use self-torture as a tool!
