18: Chapter 18 Swept Out the Door 18: Chapter 18 Swept Out the Door “Who are you calling fat?!”
Lu Zixun became unhappy, causing a commotion in the backpack, pressing down relentlessly, refusing to let Lin Siyin get away with it.
“Fatty cat, stop it!”
Lin Siyin spoke with some dissatisfaction, her voice trembling inside and out, “Wait, I’ll feed you later, be good!”
It seemed she was getting tired.
Lu Zixun then just sat obediently in the backpack, not saying a word.
Silly humans, I’ll settle with you for your mistakes later!
Finally, Lin Siyin struggled up to her room, and her hanging heart finally settled down a bit.
The next thing was to just sort things out.
It was now five fifty-five.
Originally, Lin Siyin had estimated that her father Lin Beisheng’s alarm would ring at six o’clock, and the official time to get up would be around six oh five or six ten.
That should be enough time!
Unfortunately, fate had other plans, and Lin Beisheng was awake right now.
Sounds were coming from the living room, scattered and mixed with Lin Beisheng’s calls.
“Daughter, time to get up for school.”
At first, Lin Siyin couldn’t believe it and wanted to listen more clearly.
After all, her dad was always one to stick to his plans.
He wouldn’t do anything a minute early or a minute late.
But it was that moment of hesitation that caused Lin Siyin to miss the perfect chance to hide.
Lin Beisheng was already at the door.
Lin Siyin felt her scalp tingle with urgency.
Forget it, no more hesitation!
Lin Siyin gritted her teeth and decided to take a gamble!
She put her backpack where it belonged, but she didn’t change out of her clothes that were close to her body.
Surely Lin Beisheng wouldn’t lift her blanket!
Lin Beisheng came in.
“Siyin, hurry up and have breakfast,” Lin Beisheng called out to Lin Siyin as usual.
“Otherwise, you’ll be late.”
Closely observing the somewhat dazed Lin Siyin, Lin Beisheng felt a strange sensation that he couldn’t quite put his finger on.
Because that unconscious haziness of a person is actually very hard to feign.
But if that was all, Lin Beisheng would at most be somewhat suspicious, not certain.
Watching Lin Beisheng slowly step out of her room, Lin Siyin let out a slight sigh of relief.
Perhaps she had muddled through?
But just as Lin Beisheng turned to close the door, a mutant situation occurred.
Lin Beisheng darted back through the door, grabbed Lin Siyin’s bedding, and “whooshed” it off in one swift motion.
Siyin, all neatly dressed, was now exposed in front of Lin Beisheng.
Lin Siyin stiffened, sitting on the bed unsure of what to do.
[I was thinking, if I hadn’t dressed properly for this moment…
what would I have done…]
Siyin awkwardly greeted Lin Beisheng, wishing she could just disappear into a crack in the ground.
“Tell me, where did you go last night?”
Lin Beisheng surveyed her up and down, then said, “Judging by your appearance, you went to watch the meteor shower, right?”
Siyin hung her head like a deflated balloon, admitting, “I went out last night.”
“But how did you find out, Father?”
Lin Beisheng snorted disdainfully
and pointed at the clothes on top of Siyin’s blanket.
Siyin first paused, then her expression shifted to one of realization.
My pajamas were still left outside the blanket, isn’t that obvious at a glance?
Lin Siyin slapped her own head in annoyance, seemingly chiding herself for her own stupidity.
“I told you last night already.”
Lin Beisheng said indifferently, “It’s been dangerous outside recently, I told you not to go out, but you didn’t listen to me!”
“Since you don’t listen to me, there’s no need to keep this cat.”
Having said that, Lin Beisheng picked up Lu Zixun, who had just fallen asleep, and started walking towards the door.
At this, Lin Siyin panicked.
She thought Lin Beisheng would at most give her a severe scolding; she never imagined he would lay hands on her cat—she was doomed!
Lin Siyin dashed in front of Lin Beisheng, “No matter what you say, you’re not taking my cat away.”
Lin Beisheng glanced at her and said lightly, “It was you who disobeyed first, how can you blame me?”
But I just wanted to go!
Her eyes brimming with red, Lin Siyin felt extremely wronged.
Yet she didn’t dare to shout at her father, whom she had always respected and loved; she could only silently hold back her tears.
Lin Siyin looked so pitiable that any man would feel compassion.
However, Lin Beisheng was unmoved and continued to walk towards the outside with Lu Zixun.
At this moment, Lu Zixun was especially anxious!
If it were possible, Lu Zixun would now like to slap Lin Beisheng, to make him realize his mistake!
However, in front of his little mistress, Lu Zixun dared not show any superpower, for fear she’d think of him as a monster.
He could only meow anxiously.
Lu Zixun’s cries were so pitiful that they made Lin Siyin’s heart ache even more.
“Ding, detected an increase in the girl’s Heartbreak Points by +300.”
At this moment, Lu Zixun didn’t have the time to ponder his importance to Lin Siyin,
All he wanted was to return to Lin Siyin’s side.
Maybe it was Lu Zixun’s pitiful voice that shocked her, but Lin Siyin took a quick step to stand in front of Lin Beisheng and began to fight over Lu Zixun.
Clearly he didn’t expect his usually gentle and obedient daughter to defy him.
Lin Beisheng grew even angrier and, naturally, refused to let go.
They grappled with each other in a stalemate.
Lu Zixun, on the other hand, was fine; his Steel Body of a superman let him feel no pain.
However, to appear credible, Lu Zixun still acted as if he was in unbearable pain.
It seemed like the two would keep on this deadlock when, unexpectedly, an accident occurred.
Suddenly, Lin Siyin collapsed, sitting down on the floor, and she seemed to be in a bad way.
She was a black belt in Taekwondo, could she really be this weak?
He looked at Lin Siyin, who was sitting on the ground with puzzlement; her cheeks were crimson, she was breathing heavily, and her eyes were somewhat hazy.
It looked like a fever!
Definitely due to spending last night on the summit of Phoenix Mountain.
Lin Beisheng obviously realized it as well; he dropped Lu Zixun aside, paying no further attention to him.
He picked up Lin Siyin and put her on the bed, sighing lightly, he said, “You ran off to play last night and still don’t know how to take care of yourself?”
Lin Siyin, with her mind somewhat unclear, was still thinking about Lu Zixun, mumbling incessantly.
Lin Siyin’s words made Lin Beisheng pause in his actions.
But it was just for a moment; he then acted as if nothing had happened.
After tucking Lin Siyin in, Lin Beisheng turned around and said indifferently,
“Either way, you must leave this house today!”
