Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 735: Chapter 748: Such a Silly Woman

In the end, Lin Junyang couldn’t resist the temptation of spicy crayfish and had to say a bunch of flattering words to Xiao Xiao to rescue the crayfish from her clutches.

An Ran, who hadn’t eaten for several days, wasn’t suited to eat this. Su Jin made her chicken soup and seafood porridge. To everyone’s surprise, Su Jin’s culinary skills were quite impressive, on par with Xiao Xiao and An Ran.

Mu Xingfeng had originally planned to bring in a chef from the Imperial City, as he didn’t trust the temporary ones outside. This turned out to be a pleasant surprise for him.

After lunch and drinking some wine, Jiang Zhuo once again played the role of the driver, taking Xiao Xiao and Lin Junyang back.

Xiao Xiao needed to return to school, and Lin Junyang had to go back to the Guard Team. Jiang Zhuo drove them to Nan University first.

Lin Junyang sat in the back seat, leaning back with his eyes closed. From the dark circles under his eyes, it was clear he hadn’t been resting well these past few days.

The two didn’t speak the entire way. When they reached the gates of Nan University, Xiao Xiao fumbled in her backpack and, at the moment the car stopped, stuffed a small crystal jar into the hand of the man who was resting with his eyes closed before getting out of the car.

The sudden action made Lin Junyang open his eyes. He looked at the delicate crystal jar in his hand, filled with colorful handmade stars, each one small and intricate.

Ding dong, the sound of a text message rang.

Lin Junyang took out his phone. The foolish woman left a message: Happy Birthday!

Birthday? Oh, right, last Saturday was his twenty-fourth birthday. Every year on his birthday, he was either training or on a mission. He no longer remembers which day his birthday falls on.

Through the car window, Lin Junyang saw the figure walking backward. It wasn’t until their eyes met that the woman waved, then turned around and ran into the school without waiting for a response.

”Miss Xiao is quite cute,” Jiang Zhuo said with a smile, starting the car again.

”She’s such a foolish woman,” Lin Junyang looked over the crystal jar in his hand again. The corner of his mouth curled into a smile he didn’t even notice himself. How foolish must one be to give such a cheesy gift?

He casually tossed the jar onto the car seat.

Jiang Zhuo glanced at him through the rearview mirror and shook his head.

The car smoothly arrived at the Guard Team. Lin Junyang had a comfortable sleep until Jiang Zhuo’s voice woke him up.

”Young Master Lin, we’ve arrived at the Guard Team. Should I drive the car inside?”

”No need, I’ll get out and walk,” Lin Junyang said as he pushed open the door. Just when he was about to close the door, he saw the crystal jar on the back seat. In the next second, he reached out and took it with him.

At the entrance of the Guard Team, a small squad member on duty saw Lin Junyang walking from outside, ran up with a smile, and saluted, ”Officer, there are some packages for you in the guard room. Should I get them delivered to you?”

”Send them to me,” Lin Junyang replied without looking, heading straight to his dorm in the residential building.

In no time, three squad members, each holding a pile of packages, walked in. ”Captain Lin, what good stuff do you have here? Are these sent by your wife?”

A small squad member smiled as he picked one up and took a look. The outer packaging was so secure that there was no way to tell what was inside.

”Who could have so many wives? Don’t you see these packages are from different places?” another squad member chimed in.

”Maybe our Captain Lin has great charm,” the small squad member continued to argue, not backing down at all.

”Do you have anything to do? If not, get lost.” Lin Junyang took the package from the small squad member’s hand and gave him a light kick.

The two squad members hopped out of the room.

Lin Junyang looked over the pile of packages on the floor. They were all birthday gifts sent by his brothers and friends from the Imperial City, just like every year.

He first opened the package from his eldest brother, Gu Haoyu. As expected, it contained two bottles of top-grade red wine.

Next, he picked up the package sent by his third brother, Chen Yankun. Judging by the size, it was similar to the first one. Sure enough, it contained two bottles of red wine.

He looked at the smallest package sent by his fourth brother, Sun Wangbei, finally feeling a bit curious. Upon opening it, he found a bottle of whiskey inside a delicate box.

Lin Junyang twitched his mouth. Were they trying to turn their dear little brother into an alcoholic?

He lost all interest in looking at the rest and lazily lay on the sofa. The afternoon sunlight streamed in, shining on the crystal jar on the coffee table and refracting a brilliant light.
