My Beloved Super Fierce Wife
Chapter 323 Is this... meeting the parents?!

Chapter 323: 323 Is this... meeting the parents?!

Gu Ren only got a clear look at Lin Tang’s face at that moment.

Staring at the girl’s delicate and pretty little face, she was entirely stunned.

This comrade... is she of age?!

Could Gu Yingzhou actually be such a beast...

For a moment, the look Gu Ren gave her brother was all wrong.

After glimpsing at his wife, Su Qi knew she was wildly speculating.

With a helpless shake of his head, he turned to Lin Tang and said:

"I’m Yingzhou’s brother-in-law, Su Qi, and this is my wife.

We heard you found a child, so we came to have a look."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tang’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Brother-in-law?

Sister?

Comrade Gu’s?

Is this... meeting the parents?

Her mind was a complete mess.

The situation had unfolded too suddenly, leaving her uncertain about what expression to make.

After a moment of daze, Lin Tang quickly gathered herself and smiled.

"Please come inside."

The group entered the courtyard.

Upon scanning the courtyard, which was clean and tidy, Su Qi and Gu Ren’s impression improved further.

With guests at home, Lin Tang called out to serve tea and snacks.

Seeing this, Gu Yingzhou followed her.

"I’ll help."

Gu Ren casually took a seat.

Her gaze fixated on her younger brother’s back, her eyes nearly bulging out.

"Is that Gu Yingzhou?" she asked, pulling Su Qi’s hand, her face clearly showing shock.

Even Su Qi was taken aback.

"...Yes, I guess so," he replied.

With an ambiguous snicker, Gu Ren said, "I always thought Gu Yingzhou was so aloof, ready to defy the heavens and the earth for his entire life. I never expected to see this day."

As she said this, her heart filled with joy.

After all, he was her own little brother, and she too was hopeful for him to find a companion who understood him.

Lin Tang handed the thermos bottle to Gu Yingzhou.

Suddenly, she realized that she hadn’t seen Su Zheng for quite a while.

"You pour the tea; I’ll go find Su Zheng," she said.

Upon hearing the name of his great nephew, Gu Yingzhou’s heart finally settled.

"...Go ahead," he responded.

With a raised eyebrow, Lin Tang said with certainty, "Are you the little uncle Su Zheng has been talking about?"

These last few days, the child hadn’t stopped talking about his little uncle who was so formidable, he could touch the sky with his extraordinary powers.

Seeing Comrade Gu, she felt Su Zheng had made a fair assessment.

Yes, her partner was indeed extraordinary.

"Mhm," Gu Yingzhou replied.

Lin Tang nodded.

She headed for another room.

Upon entering, she did not see the child at first glance.

"Su Zheng?" she called out.

Immediately after, she heard rustling noises coming from a cabinet.

It wasn’t a wardrobe, but a cabinet with a flip-top lid that could snap shut on its own when lowered.

Inside, she stored winter quilts and clothing.

It was seldom opened.

Now, the items on top had been moved aside, and the cabinet door was closed.

"...Is that you, Sister Tangtang? I can’t get out," came a tiny voice from inside.

Lin Tang’s mouth twitched slightly.

She walked over and lifted the lid of the cabinet.

Entangled in quilts, Su Zheng’s little red face was blinking, getting used to the light.

"Why did you crawl into the cabinet? What would have happened if I hadn’t found you?"

Kids just don’t know fear!

If no one had noticed him, it could have been very dangerous.

Struggling with the edge of the cabinet, Su Zheng stood on the overly soft materials, making it difficult for him to balance.

"...I was afraid," he said guiltily, glancing at the door, his voice very low.

His parents and little uncle had arrived, and he was scared of being punished.

Lin Tang picked Su Zheng up from the cabinet and scrutinized him.

"You weren’t afraid when you ran away from home, and now you’re scared?"

With a fearlessly reckless child like that, parents are bound to lose several years off their lives.

Su Zheng clung to Lin Tang’s hand, whining with a soft, coquettish voice.

"Sister Tangtang, can you plead with my mom and dad not to spank me? Or... at least go easy on me?"

There was one thing he didn’t mention, which was that he had heard of Sister Tangtang’s name while he was in the Provincial City.

That time when his uncle was talking to his dad, he heard everything loud and clear.

Su Zheng knew that his uncle was acquainted with Lin Tang, which is why he clung to her.

Otherwise, he would have definitely been willing to listen to the police’s arrangements.

Lin Tang didn’t understand the child’s thoughts.

She glanced at Su Zheng.

"You’re thinking too much. It’s only right to be punished for making a mistake, and there’s nothing I can do to help."

After finishing her words, she handed the child a bottle of medicine.

"Here, take this, if the injury is serious, this will make it heal faster."

Su Zheng: "..."

His view of Lin Tang felt a little disillusioned.

Sister Tangtang, are you a devil?

He tried so hard to be adorable, why wasn’t Sister Tangtang softened by it at all?!

Lin Tang indicated: There were too many little cuties at home, and she was already dazzled by cuteness; how could she be swayed by such a sugar-coated bombardment from outside?

"Alright, go out now. Your mom, dad, and your uncle are waiting for you.

Sooner or later, you can’t escape a beating, so stop struggling."

Lin Tang’s tone was calm, but the child was shivering, covering his butt protectively.

His feet moved as if he was stepping on ants, dragging along slowly.

Su Zheng: o(╥﹏╥)o

Lin Tang looked at him speechlessly, "Keep moving slowly, I’m going out first."

As soon as she left, Su Zheng became anxious and hastily followed.

Grasping Lin Tang’s hand with one hand and feebly covering his butt with the other, he exited the room.

Upon learning that their son was unharmed, Gu Ren and Su Qi’s panic and unease had immediately halved.

Now, seeing Su Zheng, the days of panic, fear, and worry surged out like erupting magma, wave after wave.

The angrier Su Qi got, the more tender and harmless his expression became.

He walked towards Su Zheng with a smile.

"Son, was it fun to run away from home?"

Anyone looking would think this man was a loving father.

Su Zheng glanced at his dad and then at his mom.

Thinking they weren’t angry,

he flashed a big white smile.

Then cleverly, he hugged Su Qi’s thigh tightly.

A barrage of sweet talk poured out.

"Dad, I missed you so much. I thought of you when eating, when sleeping, all the time..."

Su Qi was already not a strict father, and being coaxed by his son, his smile grew even broader.

Su Zheng thought he had made it through the ordeal, and he breathed a big sigh of relief.

But then—

The smile on Su Qi’s face vanished in an instant.

He picked up his son.

Opened his hand, ready to strike his behind.

Smack, smack went two slaps.

He didn’t hold back at all.

With each slap, there was a fiery sting of pain.

"Mommy, save me!" Su Zheng flailed his legs and cried out loudly.

Gu Ren glanced at Su Qi, her eyes reminding him to watch his strength.

But she didn’t take her son’s plea for mercy seriously.

The kid was too tough!

Without a lesson, who knows what scarier trouble he’d cause next time.

Gu Ren quickly looked away.

She got up to receive the small plate of snacks from Lin Tang’s hands.

"There’s no need for all this trouble. You’re being so formal; it’s making me feel embarrassed."

With tea, seeds, peanuts, and sugar pastries...

It was excessively polite!

Lin Tang smiled and sat down.

Gu Yingzhou handed her a cup of tea that had been poured in advance.

"Have some tea; it’s not hot anymore."

His attentive demeanor caused Gu Ren to purse her lips in response.

But Lin Tang quite enjoyed it and smiled at Gu Yingzhou.

"Thank you, I’m actually quite thirsty."

Gu Yingzhou’s eyes twinkled like stars as he asked, "It’s us who should be thankful to you, that rascal Su Zheng must have given you quite the trouble, right?"

He was well aware of his nephew’s domineering tendencies.
