Lin Shi laughed so hard that tears nearly spilled from his eyes.
Compared to Su Su constantly chattering in his ear about not wanting him to get hurt again, urging him not to clash with his family and to endure it until he graduated high school and could move out—
Yan Xianjue's blunt arrogance was far more satisfying.
He had always said that Yan Xianjue was arrogant to the bone.
Ji Xi and the others just hadn't believed him.
But for tonight's plan to go smoothly,
he had no choice but to regretfully interrupt Yan Xianjue's tirade.
Mainly because he was afraid Lin Shuo's mental fortitude was too weak and Yan Xianjue would piss him off so badly that he fainted.
Then he would not be able to attend the banquet tonight.
That would not do. Lin Shuo was an important protagonist tonight.
He wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes and smiled in agreement at Yan Xianjue. "You're right. I'll tell Grandpa later."
"I'll have Grandpa properly teach him some manners."
As he spoke, Lin Shi glanced at Lin Shuo. "But today, please show the young master some mercy."
"After all, today is his 'big day.'"
As if imitating Lin Shuo's tone from earlier, Lin Shi placed heavy emphasis on the words "big day."
Yan Xianjue kept a straight face and merely gave him a faint look. "Sure."
But he could not keep his thoughts straight.
[No matter how I hear that, it sounds like he's saying his good days are over today!!!]
Shen Fangli felt exactly the same way.
Lin Shi really knew how to be sarcastic.
Unlike Su Su, whose feelings were complicated but who could not get a word in,
Shen Fangli's thoughts were much simpler.
She was absolutely going to enjoy this
