I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Chapter 99

Whats wrong?

I saw an acquaintance, Im going to make a phone call.

Okay.

Xu Lin stepped aside and made a voice call to Ji Yun, and after waiting for a while, the other party finally answered.

Xu Lin, whats up? You said there was something important today, and you didnt come to study with me. Youre slacking off~

Ill come tonight.

Thinking wishfully, besides, Im staying at my older sisters place these days.

Youre teasing me.

Teasing you? If I said I was home alone, you would definitely come, wouldnt you?

Ji Yuns voice is so sweet and soft, but surprisingly tempting, this girl has grown up, understanding his thoughts more and more.

Youre making it hard for me to resist.

Youre such a flirt~

Cough cough! How am I a flirt? I dont even have a girlfriend?

Youre just afraid that having a girlfriend will make it hard to maintain such good relationships with everyone, right~

Damn Despite moving forward steadily and honestly, Ive been seen through by Ji Yun first, or rather, by others, without saying anything

Haha Lets talk about some serious matters.

What serious matter? Ji Yun chuckled lightly on the other end, knowing that Xu Lin was momentarily startled by her, finding it quite amusing.

Has your father gone to look for your mother?

Yeah Is something wrong? Ji Yun on the other end also suddenly felt something was amiss, her tone becoming serious.

I saw your dad, right here at Tiankong Hot Pot on Xinghuo Road.

Seeing my dad, does that mean theres someone else?

Yeah, most likely not your mom, probably the woman you mentioned.

Im heading over right away!

Arent you going to wait and see?

Yeah, Ill ask my father in person. I cant avoid it any longer.

Alright, Ill wait here for you. Dont worry about anything, Ill stand by your side.

Okay Xu Lin, its so good to have you here.

After saying that, the call was ended. Xu Lin also breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his seat.

Whats wrong?

Su Qingwan saw him return with a serious expression, grabbed his hand, and skillfully intertwined their fingers, feeding Qin Yunhe another dose of dog food.

I just saw Ji Yuns father, but that woman isnt her mom.

An affair?

No, its strange. Let Ji Yun handle it later, after all, its her family matter.

Mm.

Qin Yunhe continued to eat there, completely ignoring the whispered conversation of the two people opposite her, while pondering what Xu Lin had said before.

How should she act? She must be careful when sneaking in, armed with a crossbow. The other side is conducting business indoors, so they must have some counter-surveillance awareness. But she must succeed. Then her father will recognize her abilities as a police officer!

Six or seven minutes later, the other side also started eating. Xu Lin and Su Qingwan also glanced over sneakily and found that they didnt seem to have a romantic relationship. They were sitting across from each other, without any intimate gestures, as if they were just ordinary friends.

After a few more minutes, Xu Lin saw a tram stop outside. Ji Yun, wearing a beige coat and a small knitted hat, walked towards them.

Ji Yun is here, Ill go help out a bit. You and Sister Qin keep eating.

Okay, if she mentions anything about their family affairs, come back and dont interfere.

I know. Xu Lin nodded, but thought to himself, my father-in-laws affairs are my own familys affairs too.

Xu Lin went to the door and met Ji Yun, who gave him a hug directly.

Your father is over there; we can hug later when we have time.

Who cares about hugging you.

Ji Yun walked ahead, with Xu Lin following behind her, but as they got closer, her steps slowed down.

Xu Lin reached out and held her hand from behind, letting her feel his warmth.

I just said, Ive got your back, no matter what happens! Even if your parents dont care about you, Ill always be there for you.

Youre dreaming If you think you can marry a wife without spending money.

I didnt expect our Class Monitor Ji, to be a little obsessed with money~?

Call it what you want, Im going in.

After Xu Lins teasing, she completely steadied her mind. With determination in her eyes, she went straight to her father and sat next to the woman.

Ji Datong was also taken aback, seeing his daughter a bit bewildered. Looking back, he saw the familiar teenager.

As an old father, his first thought was that his daughter had made a friend with the other party.

Dad, who is this? Introduce us, Ji Yun smiled at the middle-aged woman next to her.

Without a stern face or harsh words, but it gave Ji Datong a tremendous pressure. It seemed like his daughter was going to challenge him.

Um Your name is Ji Yun, right? Your name is similar to mine. Im Yao Yun, your fathers old classmate.

Old classmate Hello, Auntie Yao, Ji Yun glanced at her father, then reached out and shook hands with the woman warmly.

But Xu Lin also felt a bit nervous at this moment. This girl Ji Yun really knows her stuff. Its possible that her father may have an affair, but the way she remains calm and collected is impressive. However, what if she uses these tactics against me in the future? By then, shell definitely be even more skilled than now, hm~

Hello, Uncle Ji, Xu Lin thought, then walked over and greeted him.

Hello, Xu Lin, please have a seat.

Okay. Xu Lin sat down nervously next to his father-in-law.

How come youre both here together? Ji Datongs speech was quite interesting, emphasizing the word together, which made Ji Yun blush even more.

The lady beside them also smiled, took a sip of tea, appearing rather childlike.

We came out to eat together and happened to see you.

Oh? What a coincidence. Why dont you join us then?

No, no, were eating over there.

Lets have some drinks, then?

Dad, dont change the subject! Auntie Yao, I want to ask you, what exactly is your relationship with my father?

No matter what the situation is, I can accept it, but I must know!

Da Tong? Yao Yun also looked at Ji Datong opposite her. Ji Datong took a deep breath, and a hint of helplessness appeared on his weathered face.

Fine, but you know, dont tell your mother for now.

Okay.

And Xu Lin, can you wait Ji Datong glanced at him, but Xu Lin was stopped by Ji Yuns call before he could get up.

Xu Lin, you dont have to leave, theres nothing we cant say.

Okay, sit down. Ji Datong gave his daughter a deep look, then glanced at him a few times and pulled him back to his seat.

I didnt cheat. I already told you and your mother last time, Ji Datong said first.

Ji Yuns tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. Although she didnt doubt her father, getting a direct answer still relieved her.

But if you didnt cheat, why didnt you tell Mom? Mom isnt unreasonable, she asked.

Its different. This is my issue, Ji Yun. Actually, before I married your mother, I had another marriage.

Huh?! Ji Yuns sharp eyes suddenly widened in surprise. Whats going on?

Yeah, let me explain. I did cheat, but that was many years ago, and the person was your mother
