Chapter 387 - 239: If You Don’t Go, What Will I Use to Show Off?

Lin Jiang watched Xu Lin with a grin. "So you want to give it another try."

"I’ve been wanting to, but you’ve been busy lately, and I haven’t been free either, so there was never a chance," Xu Lin said.

"But I’ve researched it, and not a single paper says it has this kind of effect. They only say it *might* have this kind of benefit..."

"They said ’might,’ and that’s the answer. My protein *does* have this benefit."

Xu Lin looked at Lin Jiang. "You really are strong. Your Physique is different from other people’s, so I guess it would have that kind of effect."

"And so?"

"I want it now..."

"You can do the work yourself. I’m not lifting a finger..." Lin Jiang said.

"Okay. You just sit back and enjoy..."

Xu Lin pulled Lin Jiang over to the desk, sat him down in the chair, and then got to work herself...

She handled every step of the process herself.

She even undid the button on his pants herself. Lin Jiang just leaned back and enjoyed it comfortably.

At the same time, he used the Protein Card...

...[13,343 words of explicit content omitted]...

When the "battle" was over, Xu Lin sat on the sofa, tending to herself.

After all, skincare is a must for every woman.

[Protein Card successfully used. Reward: 38.331 million in cash.]

"This is a nice sofa," Lin Jiang said.

"I got it especially for you."

"Oh? For me?"

"I knew you’d come over when you had free time, and that you definitely wouldn’t let me off the hook. So I spent a fortune on this sofa to entertain my guest of honor."

"No wonder investors are so fond of you. It’s for good reason."

"Rascal."

"Where’s Xuanxuan? We’ll have to schedule another round for you sometime so you can properly test the effects."

"Today probably won’t work. I have a wedding to attend tomorrow, and I have to go to my mom’s in the evening. Tomorrow night is fine, but I’m worried you won’t have time."

"We’ll talk on the phone then."

"Okay."

RING RING RING—

Just then, Xu Lin’s phone rang.

"My phone’s in my bag. Can you get it for me?"

He helped Xu Lin by grabbing her phone and saw that the caller was her mom.

"It’s your mom."

Xu Lin shot up.

"Oh no! Don’t tell me my mom’s coming over!"

"Your mom’s coming?"

"It’s just a guess. She said this morning that she might come for a visit, but she didn’t say for sure."

With a hum of acknowledgment, Xu Lin answered the phone.

"Mom."

"Where are you? When will you get here?"

As she spoke, Xu Lin had already stood up, taken a wet wipe from her bag, and started wiping her face.

"Yeah, I’m here..."

"Okay, I’ll wait for you guys here."

After hanging up, Xu Lin grabbed two more wet wipes and wiped her face furiously.

"I have a relative’s wedding to attend tomorrow, so a lot of family and friends are in town. Some of them are the nosy type, and they wanted to come have a look."

"The type of relatives who love to compare and compete, I bet."

"You hit the nail on the head. But it’s not a relative, it’s one of my mom’s old colleagues. She knows my aunt, and they came for the wedding together."

"With your mom’s personality, knowing what they’re like, I’d think she’d turn them down for you, right?"

"She would have before, but not now. Now she can’t wait to have all our relatives and friends come over for a look. How else is she going to brag in front of everyone?"

"How is it bragging? She’s just telling the truth."

Xu Lin moved closer to Lin Jiang. "Help me check."

"Your skin looks even better now."

"Now’s not the time to look at my skin! Check if there’s any residue left. They can’t see it," Xu Lin said, tilting her head up.

"Don’t worry, you wiped it all clean," Lin Jiang said with a smile.

"Good. Come on, walk downstairs with me."

"You want me to go with you?"

"If you don’t go, how am I supposed to show off?"
