The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 693 - 175: Holy Shit, This Idiot_2

Lu Yulin’s fingers were ceaselessly sliding on his phone, his pace of speech never slowing down as he picked up Mu Shinian’s words and gritted his teeth saying, "It’s not just firecrackers I’m eating; it’s like I’m on gunpowder, I can’t believe that idiot actually..." Mid-sentence, he seemed to belatedly react and turned his head to look at Mu Shinian next to him. Abruptly, he pulled back his phone, and his other hand landed directly on Mu Shinian’s shoulder. He raised his eyebrows slightly with a smirk and said, "Mu Shinian, what are you doing? Don’t lean so close to me, otherwise, I’ll think you’re fond of me..."

Mu Shinian, "... What nonsense are you spouting? Only if I had a brain defect would I like you. I’m not gay, go take your medicine if you haven’t yet." He gave him an unapologetic glare, looking at Lu Yulin as if he were an idiot, and shoved away Mu Shinian, who was leaning against him.

His face was full of... disdain.

"It’s just as well, otherwise I’d be scared you’d fall for me." Lu Yulin was still smiling, but there was a glint of craftiness in his eyes, seemingly praising himself for his clever change of topic. He had nearly been caught by Mu Shinian just now; luckily, he wasn’t.

Mu Shinian, "..." Suddenly felt that he couldn’t really be friends with this guy anymore.

The three family members didn’t play in the backyard for long, since Song Qiao said she needed to go out to buy some things, so she asked Mu Shinian and Lu Yulin to take care of Elder Mu.

When the maid came down, the two were bickering, neither willing to give in. Elder Mu felt tired and stopped bothering with the two youngsters, letting the maid take him back to his sickroom, leaving them to continue playing there.

The maid complied, pushing Elder Mu back to the sickroom.

By the time Mu Shinian and Lu Yulin snapped out of it, neither the maid nor Elder Mu were in sight. They exchanged glances, each snorted, and were just about to go back to accompany Elder Mu when they were blocked by three people approaching them.

Mu Shinian looked up at the three people blocking their way, his expression suddenly turning grave. Even Lu Yulin couldn’t help but slightly furrow his brows, irritation apparent in his eyes, but he held back from saying anything.

The newcomers were two males and one female, each about the same age as Mu Shinian and Lu Yulin, all looking like high school students.

The girl was dressed in a white skirt, holding an LV handbag, her entire attire exuding a pricey vibe. Her eyes occasionally drifted towards Mu Shinian, but when she looked at Lu Yulin, a competitive nature was unmistakably revealed.

The three of them blocked the way for Lu Yulin and Mu Shinian, the five of them standing off against each other. Although the scene seemed a bit odd, everyone recognized their young age and assumed they were classmates chatting, so not many onlookers paid attention.

"Do you guys need something? If not, move aside, we’re in a hurry." Lu Yulin was the least patient of them, his face showing an expression of disdain, his tone dripping with impatience.

Perhaps it was Lu Yulin’s tone that made them blush all of a sudden. One of the boys, unable to contain his anger, stepped forward to shield the girl, looking Lu Yulin in the eye and spat out, "What are you acting all smug for? Lu Yulin, you’re just relying on your rich and powerful father. Without your daddy, you’d be nothing but dead by now."

Lu Yulin and Mu Shinian exchanged looks, spotting the displeasure and scorn in each other’s eyes, then they simultaneously cursed out loud.

"Damn, this retard."

"Fuck, this asshole."

Their voices were neither too loud nor too soft, but loud enough for the three in front to hear.

The boy immediately turned red with anger and embarrassment, his face reddening further as he gritted his teeth and said, "Say that again."

Before Mu Shinian could retort, Lu Yulin had already flashed a bright white smile and said, "You want me to say it because you ask? Wouldn’t that be losing face for me?"

The boy was choked up by Lu Yulin’s words, struggling to respond and staying red-faced.

However, Lu Yulin didn’t let it go, looking at the boy and the two behind him, who were now also changing their expressions, and slightly curled his lips as he continued, "What do you mean what? Am I wrong? You’re essentially a combination of a retard and an idiot. My daddy being rich is because I was smart enough to choose the right family. Why don’t you try finding a dad as rich as mine? Without the ability, what are you making noise for? What’s wrong with living off my dad’s money? Are you mad because your dad doesn’t have money to support you?"

This is a world of comparing dads; is it supposed to be about comparing lives? He’s not stupid.

The most damn annoying are those who act all morally righteous condemning others for relying on their fathers, not out of true righteousness but because they’re jealous.

Mu Shinian, "..." Indeed, it’s Lu Yulin. He never loses in a verbal exchange. He could talk the dead into seeming alive, completely disregarding the other, ready with countless retorts for anything said against him.

Though it’s not good to bully people, this feeling... feels so damn good.

Comparing dads...

But just thinking of this term dims his eyes a bit.

He’s been fatherless since he was young, unfamiliar with what paternal love even is.

He’s quite envious of Lu Yulin having parents who pamper and spoil him.
