Peach Luck Village-Chapter 36: A Close Shave With No Real Danger
A night passed.
Xia Shanshan didn’t get up in the morning because she woke up midway through last night and hadn’t been able to sleep for half a day.
Lin Tian and Yu Li had already woken up.
Lin Tian was cooking in the kitchen, while Yu Li went to the bedroom to call Xia Shanshan out of bed.
"Why aren’t you up yet? Hurry up, get out of bed, and go off to school."
"Don’t you know what day it is this year? Do the math yourself, how long until you have exams."
"How could you even sleep through this."
Yu Li deliberately chided Xia Shanshan.
With sleep still in her eyes, Xia Shanshan said in a aggrieved tone, "Mom, I really can’t wake up today, and it’s not my fault, you and dad are the ones to blame!"
Yu Li laughed, "You sure know whom to blame, blaming your dad and me."
"Fine, since I was out last night and couldn’t supervise you, making sure you went to bed early."
"I’ll take the blame for that."
"But your dad wasn’t even at home, so you’re going to put that on him too?"
"Do you want to be even better at passing the blame?"
"What? My dad wasn’t at home?"
Xia Shanshan instantly woke up, looking at Yu Li incredulously, "Then last night, who were you at home with..."
In a flustered tone, Yu Li said, "You impudent girl, don’t talk nonsense. Your Brother Tian and I are innocent. He just had nowhere to sleep last night and came to stay at our place for one night, that’s all."
Xia Shanshan said painfully, "I heard everything, and you still want to argue."
With a sigh, Yu Li said, "Shanshan, since you heard it all, Mom won’t lie to you."
"Indeed, last night, because your dad hasn’t been home for several days, I couldn’t help it and consoled myself in the living room."
"But at that time, your Brother Tian had already gone to bed; please don’t talk nonsense and tarnish your father’s name or ruin Brother Tian’s reputation."
"Your dad can’t afford to lose face like that!"
"Brother Tian isn’t even married yet. If you damage his reputation, what good woman would dare to marry him in the future."
Just then, Lin Tian called out, "Aunt Yu, breakfast is ready. We can eat now."
Yu Li then said, "See, how hardworking and good your Brother Tian is? Getting up early to make breakfast for us."
"Not only that, your Brother Tian is also a very handsome guy. When you see him, you’ll definitely like him."
"If you’re a bit older and Tian still hasn’t found a wife, I’m even thinking of marrying you off to Tian."
"So, in my heart, I’ve already treated Tian as my son-in-law."
"How could your mother be so licentious as to mess around with her own son-in-law?"
"No matter who I would look for, it wouldn’t be my own son-in-law!"
"Don’t I even have that much trust in your eyes?"
No one would intentionally believe their mother to be licentious, Xia Shanshan included. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
If it hadn’t been for hearing something faintly last night, she would never have suspected Yu Li.
It was just that she had to suspect when she found out the only man in the house was Lin Tian.
Now, with Yu Li’s explanation, it didn’t completely convince her of Yu Li and Lin Tian’s innocence,
but it was enough to keep her from making baseless allegations without solid proof.
Xia Shanshan nodded, "Mom, don’t worry, I won’t speak recklessly."
"But if I ever find out you’ve done something to betray my dad, I won’t forgive you."
Having said that, Xia Shanshan went to wash up in the bathroom.
By the time Xia Shanshan had finished washing up, Lin Tian had already placed the dishes on the table.
Seeing that Lin Tian was indeed very handsome, Xia Shanshan didn’t want to think of him as that kind of person.
She was an absolute believer in the attractiveness of one’s looks.
Appearance is justice.
And because Yu Li mentioned marrying her off to Lin Tian, she started to see him in a different light.
After breakfast, Yu Li didn’t let Lin Tian clean up but asked him to drive her car and take Xia Shanshan to school.
She needed to tidy up and then get some more sleep to recover her energy.
Lin Tian didn’t need to, even after several days and nights without sleep, he was still full of vigor.
On the way to school, when they passed a nearby community, Xia Shanshan asked Lin Tian to stop.
Two minutes later, Xia Shanshan’s close friend Meng Yue,
who, despite her young age, was that girl who went to hotel rooms with men and got screwed, emerged from the community with a school bag on her back.
She was also very pretty, with a delicate nose and rosy lips that were immensely charming.
She was the same age as Xia Shanshan, eighteen, and in her final year of high school.
But unlike Xia Shanshan, who wore a dress, her attire was bold.
She wore a very short coffee-colored skirt below,
without even safety shorts.
With any slightly forceful movement, her yellow underwear she wore today would be revealed.
Above, she was wearing a midriff-baring tight T-shirt, exposing her flat stomach entirely.
