After preserving the cerium-rich stone, Qian Ming sent Lin Xiang near Shu's house and left.
Although Wang Zhong invited him to stay at Shu's house for a few days several times, Lin Xiang didn't want to cause trouble to Wang Zhong. After all, he and Shu Nan's mother and daughter didn't get along.
But the cerium element has been found, and Lin Xiang has to stay in Tiancheng for a while.
The relevant departments of Xia State acted quickly.
An abandoned factory was found on the outskirts of Tiancheng City as Lin Xiang's laboratory.
The location is very secretive, and strict security controls have been carried out around it, so not even a mosquito can fly in.
However, the place was still very crude for the time being. Before the laboratory was fully established, in order not to attract other people's attention, he decided that it would be more appropriate to stay at Shu's house for a few days.
As soon as he was ushered in by the servant, a sharp and mean voice came over: "Hey? Isn't this Mr. Lin Xiang who has the supreme black card? I am afraid that the small door and small temple of my Shu family cannot accommodate a great god like you, right? ."
Shu Nan was sitting on the sofa, wearing a decent cheongsam. Although she was not young anymore, she still had a bit of charm because she took good care of herself and had a plump figure.
"Mom, you praise him too much. I don't know where he stole that card from."
Shu Yingxue glanced at Lin Xiang with disdain, "If he was really rich, why would he be running around in a beggar's outfit all day long? Isn't this because he is afraid that someone with a heart will find out that there is something wrong with him?"
"Honey, Xiaoxue, please stop saying a few words."
Wang Zhong pulled Shu Nan's hand with a grimace, "Honey, you have watched Xiao Xiang grow up. He is kind-hearted. Even if he has no achievements, he will not commit any crime."
"We haven't seen each other for so many years, who knows." Shu Nan shook off Wang Zhong's hand and said disgustedly, "And it was you who secretly raised him back then, so he behaved as harmless as humans and animals. Now that he has no money, who knows what he did to harm nature and justice. Nothing."
Lin Xiang's face was expressionless. He already knew what kind of person Shu Nan was. There was nothing good to say about such a mean woman. It seemed that staying at Shu's house was not a good choice.
"Uncle Wang, if it's inconvenient, I'd better go out and live by myself."
Wang Zhong looked ugly, but he was a son-in-law with no status at home, so he could only look at Shu Nan for help, hoping that she would show her favor.
You're a coward... Shu Nan cursed secretly and flipped his hair in his spare time, "Forget it, for Wang Zhong's sake, I can let you stay at Shu's house for a few days."
"Wife, thank you." Wang Zhong burst into tears with gratitude. It seemed that his wife still cared about him.
Shu Nan sneered and said: "Don't be so anxious to be happy, I have conditions."
"You can stay for a few days. Don't even think about hanging around. It can only be half a month at most. If someone is still begging for help, then don't blame me for being unkind."
"No problem." Lin Xiang nodded. When the laboratory is built, even if he is invited, he will not stay here.
"Also, in half a month, I want you to sign this guarantee."
Shu Nan suddenly took out a piece of white paper.
It said that the previous oral engagement between Shu Yingxue and Lin Xiang was a joke made by Wang Zhong and Lin Xiang's father, and was not discussed with the Shu family, so it could not be true. The two parties were not allowed to mention the matter in front of outsiders. From then on, Lin Xiang and Lin Xiang The Su family has nothing to do with it.
Shu Yingxue hugged Shu Nan excitedly: "Mom, you still love me."
After reading the contents of the guarantee letter, Lin Xiang smiled broadly.
The Shu family is really afraid that I will take advantage of them.
He didn't expect Lin Xiang to have such a disgusting day.
"Lin Xiang, why are you laughing? Is it possible that you don't want to sign and want to waste me?"
Shu Yingxue's face suddenly sank, "I advise you to stop dreaming. I am already Brother Feng's fiancée. She is the woman you will never get in your life. Don't even think about pestering me. The Leng family is not someone you can mess with. You If you remain stubborn, the consequences will be miserable."
"Haha, you think too much."
Lin Xiang smiled indifferently. He really wanted to see how miserable the Leng family could make him end up, but it was obvious that Shu Yingxue was not worthy of him.
"You don't have to wait seven days, I'll sign this now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the pen and wrote Lin Xiang's two words in a flourishing manner at the end of the guarantee letter.
"Okay, it's my turn to sign!" Shu Yingxue signed her name happily.
I have to say that Shu Nan was quite considerate, and the letter of guarantee was actually made in duplicate.
After Shu Yingxue signed, Lin Xiang carefully kept his share. After all, he was afraid that the Shu family would not acknowledge the debt and pester him in the future.
"Well, since you are so understanding, I will allow you to stay here for the next half month."
Shu Nan raised his head slightly. Although he was sitting on the sofa, his eyes were scornful of Lin Xiang, "But you can only live in the utility room on the first floor, and you can't live and eat for free. During this period, at home, You are responsible for our hygiene. The second floor is my and Xiaoxue's room. You are not allowed to go upstairs without our permission."
"Okay, is there any more?"
"That's it for now, I'll add more when I think of it." Shu Nan stretched, "Remember your identity, if you dare to have any evil thoughts, I will have your legs broken!"
She glanced at Wang Zhong and Lin Xiang with disgust and led Shu Yingxue up the stairs calmly.
"Mom, why did you let Lin Xiang stay? You have to stay for half a month. This man is so disgusting. I can't eat for half a month just looking at him."
"Hmph, this beggar has to show up at your engagement party. It's obviously disgusting to us. Fortunately, Mr. Leng didn't pay attention, otherwise my good son-in-law would be gone, but we must take this breath."
Shu Nan said fiercely: "He wants to live in our house, doesn't he? Let him live in our hands and fall into our hands. It's not up to us to decide how he wants to play. We will kill him when the time comes!"
Hearing what her mother said, desire appeared on Shu Yingxue's face. She clenched her fists in excitement, "Yes, I want to play him to death!"
Lin Xiang, this bastard, has caused her a lot of humiliation in the past two days, and she must not make him feel better.
…
After Shu Nan and her daughter went upstairs, Lin Xiang and Lin Xiang finished tidying up the utility room, making it barely habitable, and then started chatting.
Only after entering the Shu family did I realize how useless Wang Zhong had been these past few years.
Ever since Shu Nan gave birth to Shu Yingxue, she had not been touched by Wang Zhong once. Not only that, she could only sleep on the first floor, and her treatment was the same as that of Lin Xiang who moved in today. She could not go to the second floor without permission.
Fortunately, Shu Yingxue still recognized Wang Zhong as his old father, otherwise Wang Zhong's life would have been even more difficult.
But this was Wang Zhong's family matter after all, so Lin Xiang couldn't say much. After watching Wang Zhong leave desolately, he received an unexpected call.
"Lonely old man, what do you want from me?"
"You kid, you are still so rude to the elderly." An amiable laughter came from the phone.
Lin Xiang had a faint smile on his lips: "If you have anything to say, just say it. If it doesn't matter, I'll be fine."
"Ahem, let me tell you the truth, um... three days later, there will be a cocktail party at Longjing Hotel in Tiancheng City..."
