Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself Chapter 587

Chapter 587 - Lin Ya's Plan

Mu Donglin had been hospitalized and rumor had it that he was badly injured.

However, he stayed in the hospital for only two days before returning home.

Very few people knew the reason, and those who did kept mum.

Lin Kerou could guess why.

There was no doubt that Mu Donglin’s injuries were caused by Mu Xichen.

She was indignant, but Mu Donglin was her fiancé. She couldn’t possibly turn a blind eye to it..

From the day he was injured, Lin Kerou stayed by his side.

She took care of his injuries while blaming him for being obsessed with Li Beinian. At the same time, she felt that Li Beinian was an eyesore.

If it weren’t for Li Beinian, Mu Xichen and Mu Donglin wouldn’t have so many conflicts.

Mu Xichen was a soldier who had been on the battlefield for ten years and held a high military rank.

Even if he were to face Mu Donglin barehanded, how could Mu Donglin be his match?

While she blamed him, she couldn’t help but feel hopeful. What if Brother Donglin gave up on Li Beinian as a result of this episode?

With this mentality, Lin Kerou came to Mu Donglin almost every day to reinforce her presence. During this time, she everything but lived in the hospital.

When she saw Mu Donglin’s sullen face again, Lin Kerou was not the least bit impatient.

More than a week had passed, and Mu Donglin was ready to get out of bed to settle some matters.

At this point, Lin Kerou sat beside him and said, “Brother Donglin, rest for a while. I’ve made you bird’s nest porridge. Have some.”

Mu Donglin responded with little interest, “Leave it there.”

Lin Kerou looked terribly infatuated.

Noticing that he was focused on his work, she sat down opposite him.

He did not seem to notice her presence and continued working.

After some time, Lin Kerou hurried him, “It’s getting cold.”

Mu Donglin put down the documents and glanced at her.

She handed him a wet tissue. Mu Donglin took it. After he had wiped his hands, she held the bowl out to him.

To be fair, Lin Kerou treated him very well.

Mu Donglin actually felt that it was justified.

Realizing this, Mu Donglin looked up at Lin Kerou.

Her face was glowing with satisfaction. When she noticed him looking at her, she asked, “What’s wrong?”

Mu Donglin shook his head and asked, “What time is it?”

Lin Kerou looked at the time. “Half past eight.”

“It’s late.” Mu Donglin scooped another mouthful of porridge and did not say anything else.

Lin Kerou propped her head on her hand and watched him eat the porridge that she had personally made. The satisfaction she felt was overwhelming and immense.

As the saying goes, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.

Mu Donglin couldn’t eat anything too greasy now. If he could, she would definitely cook him something new every day.

After a while, Mu Donglin spoke again. “Have you eaten?”

Shaking her head, Lin Kerou felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation and said softly, “I’ll eat later when I get home.”

“Is there more porridge?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s eat together.”

Lin Kerou looked at him, her heart pounding.

Although this was just a brief remark, it was something he had not said once in the past ten days.

Lin Kerou was elated to hear this. She broke into a smile and said, “Okay, wait for me.”

As she spoke, she turned around and headed out of the room.

Mu Donglin looked at Lin Kerou’s back view and felt a little guilty.

He wasn’t a blockhead.

He was well aware of Li Beinian’s feelings towards him, just as he was aware of Lin Kerou’s feelings for him.

Because of this, Mu Donglin could not lie to himself.

Lin Kerou really loved him.

Mu Donglin watched the girl as she walked in.

Behind her was a domestic helper carrying a tray. On the tray there was a large bowl and some appetizing dishes.

Lin Kerou put the food down and said happily, “This is a side dish I learned to make a few days ago. Try it.”

As she spoke, Lin Kerou placed the plate in front of Mu Donglin. She maintained her warm smile and said, “I know you can’t eat anything too heavy now. It took a long time to learn this.”

The man felt even more guilty as he looked at the food.

Although Lin Kerou had lied to Mu Donglin and fabricated such an absurd matter in order to get engaged to him, at the very least she was sincere towards him.

His gaze rested on her as he accepted her kindness.

Lin Kerou smiled even more happily and looked at him, overjoyed.

Mu Donglin ate in silence. It was only after eating, he realized that Lin Kerou had not touched her food.

He made a comment on this and Lin Kerou quickly finished the rest of the porridge.

Obviously, she was in an excellent mood.

Her good mood lasted all the way from when she left the Mu Family Mansion and returned to the Lin Family Mansion.

She hummed a tune as she walked into the house. Mother Lin was sitting on the sofa, looking worried.

She was inexplicably furious the moment she noticed the girl’s attitude. “You’re always out and about. You’re hardly even dating Mu Donglin and you act like you’re already married. People who don’t know any better might even think that you’re married. Don’t you have any sense of shame?”

Lin Kerou restrained her emotions after being scolded. She frowned and put on a pitiful expression, “Mom, what’s up with you today?”

Lin Kerou’s expression annoyed Mother Lin further. “It’s all because of you, sigh!”

Lin Kerou had no idea what was going on, and immediately went forward to comfort her.

Very quickly, she found out.

It turned out that news of Mu Donglin and Mu Xichen’s fight had spread. Lin Kerou knew exactly what had sparked it off.

However, the news that was initially thought to be very well kept secret somehow reached the ears of Mother Lin’s elders.

After the news went around, everyone now knew that Mu Donglin actually liked Li Beinian.

And the reason Li Beinian and Mu Donglin had called off their engagement was because Lin Kerou had come in between them.

Lin Kerou colluded with Li Meng and caused them to break off, and then took advantage of the situation.

Lin Kerou was furious when she heard this. “What nonsense!”

Mother Lin sighed heavily on seeing her daughter’s reaction and said, “Why do you have to like Mu Donglin!”

Lin Kerou knew that Mother Lin was upset and tried to console her.

Finally, after coaxing Mother Lin to sleep, the girl went upstairs in a daze.

She had intended to go back to her room, but just as she was about to do so, she suddenly remembered that she hadn’t talked to her brother in a long time.

She turned back and instead, walked to Lin Ya’s study.

But just as she got closer, she heard voices coming from inside.

Someone was speaking fluent English.

Lin Ya had studied in Boston previously, while Lin Kerou had gone to New York.

Even though there was a difference in their accents, the difference was very subtle.

Lin Kerou heard him say, “Since that’s the case, we can’t keep her.”

Lin Kerou wanted to walk in, but halted when she heard those words.

“I’ll leave it to you then… Okay… Goodbye.”

Then, he hung up.

Lin Kerou walked up to the door and knocked.

The moment Lin Ya sat down, he heard the knocking and looked up. When he saw Lin Kerou, he seemed a little surprised. However, very quickly, he looked calm again and said, “You’re early today. Aren’t you accompanying your fiancé?”

Lin Kerou walked in and said, “Brother, we haven’t gone out together for a long while. Do you have some time one of these days?”

“No.” Lin Ya turned her down flatly. He creased his brow as he held a piece of land application that had just been sent over.

Lin Ya sat down. “When would you have time then?”

“If there’s nothing else, please leave. Don’t bother me.” His tone was impatient. Lin Ya seemed a little annoyed.

However, his manner was distant and made Lin Kerou feel inexplicably sad.

She looked at him for a long time before saying, “Brother, you seem different.”

Lin Ya finally looked up on hearing this.

Noticing the sadness on Lin Kerou’s face, he frowned and said, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. I’ve been too busy recently.”

“So busy that you don’t even talk to me anymore.” Lin Kerou was close to tears. “I’m your sister.”

“I’m glad you remember who you are. Someone’s been absent from home for the past few days, playing personal assistant to someone else. You haven’t shown half as much concern for your own brother.” Lin Ya looked at his sister with a mild expression, but there was a hint of a smile on his face, so calm that it was sarcastic. “One would even think that I sold my sister to Mu Donglin.”

Lin Kerou was a little embarrassed and said nervously, “Nonsense. I only went to take care of him since I have no work these recent days. If you have errands for me to run, I can do that too.”

“Oh?” Lin Ya raised his eyebrow, his eyes flashing sharply with a cunning glint. “Since you’ve said so, help me with something then.”

“What?”

“I heard that Li Meng has returned. Get an appointment with her.”

Lin Kerou was stunned. “Meng Meng? But why?”

“She’s Mo Shaojun’s student. Mo Shaojun is one of the most famous people in Xia Nation.” Lin Ya placed his documents on the table, adjusted his glasses, and smiled gently. “Help me connect up.”

Lin Kerou nodded without asking why.

After returning to her room, Lin Kerou realized that she had received a few WeChat messages.

[Li Xueqing]: Are you really willing? Li Beinian is obviously setting Mu Donglin up.

[Li Xueqing]: She beat me up and made me tell my family that it was Mu Donglin. I had no choice but to compromise.

[Li Xueqing]: If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have broken up with Li Meng. It’s all her fault.

[Li Xueqing]: Because of her, Mu Donglin has been dragged through the mud. Both your reputations were intact, but now, it’s all been ruined by her!

Lin Kerou looked at Li Xueqing’s message and found them ridiculous.

That girl had the ill intention to harm others, but lacked the intelligence.

Did she think that she’d fall for such an obvious instigation?

However, it was indeed an effective weapon

Lin Kerou looked at her phone and replied briefly: It’s time.

It was time.

People like her shouldn’t be living in this world.

There was nothing against getting rid of evil for the people.
