Chapter 909: Chapter 910: We Must Be Fair

"Uncle, just say it, don’t be afraid of hurting my feelings. My ability to handle things is pretty good." Lin Shu saw that Song Xiaodong was still silent, so she forced a smile, trying to appear relaxed, but the smile just wouldn’t come naturally.

"You little rascal." Song Xiaodong placed his hand on Lin Shu’s waist and lightly pulled her forward. "Alright, I admit it. Even though you’re a bit troublesome, I kind of like you."

"Ah! Really?" Lin Shu was ecstatic, her body following the slight pull of Song Xiaodong’s hand, suddenly moving forward. Her chest pressed against his, her arms wrapped around his neck, and her face was so close to his.

"Hey, hey, I haven’t finished speaking yet." Song Xiaodong quickly exclaimed.

"Ah, there’s a ’but’?" Lin Shu’s face immediately fell.

Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, "Of course, there is. Before you graduate from college, I definitely won’t agree. If, after graduation, you and Xiao Ling still have these feelings, then I’ll welcome it with open arms."

"Fine, fine!" Lin Shu nodded repeatedly, and then, lowering her head, planted a quick kiss on Song Xiaodong’s cheek. This little troublemaker, when she doesn’t like someone, her disdain is intense, but when she does, her fiery feelings are completely unrestrained.

Her soft lips pressing against his cheek undeniably stirred something in Song Xiaodong, and he said, "Alright, can you get down now?"

Lin Shu smugly said, "Hehe, this is pretty comfy. I’ll get down in a while."

Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, "The way you’re sitting is making me uncomfortable, alright?"

"Uncle, you’re in such good shape, how could you be uncomfortable? Ah, I know... Oh no... Uncle, you really are... You’re really bad." Lin Shu said, her face flushing with a deep red, suddenly collapsing softly against Song Xiaodong’s chest.

"Cough, cough..." Song Xiaodong awkwardly cleared his throat. "You better get up quickly, or I won’t be able to stop myself from eating you up."

Lin Shu’s voice softened as she said sweetly, "Eat me then. I’ll be yours sooner or later, anyway. In fact, you can eat us both."

Song Xiaodong felt a surge of heat and instinctively tightened his arms around Lin Shu, pressing her closer to him.

Lin Shu let out a soft whimper, her lips brushing against Song Xiaodong’s neck, landing two gentle kisses there before murmuring, "Uncle, I’m not afraid... I’m willing to let you eat me."

Song Xiaodong suppressed his impulses and quickly picked up Lin Shu, setting her down beside him. Lin Shu looked at him in surprise and asked, "Uncle, don’t you like me?"

Song Xiaodong let out a breath and said, "It’s not that I don’t like you, but it’s just not the right time. Be good. You’re still young. Acting on impulse may leave you with lifelong regrets."

Lin Shu gazed at him, stunned, her smile slowly fading. Then, she grinned and said, "Uncle, I like you more and more. You’re really the best man in the world. Even with me like this, you’re able to restrain yourself from taking advantage."

Song Xiaodong chuckled bitterly and said, "Do you know that restraining myself is an immense torture? So please, don’t tease me."

Lin Shu laughed lightly and said, "Uncle, you’re really great." She immediately hugged Song Xiaodong’s arm, turned to the blushing Zhong Chuling beside her, and suddenly said apologetically, "Xiao Ling, I’m sorry. I got so caught up with myself earlier that I didn’t think about you. Come on, this other side of Uncle is yours."

"No... No..." Zhong Chuling frantically shook her small hands, her face growing even redder.

"Come on!" Song Xiaodong, unable to push Lin Shu away, extended his arm toward Zhong Chuling.

Zhong Chuling bit her lip and hesitated briefly before leaning in, resting her head gently on Song Xiaodong’s shoulder.

"Hehe, Uncle, can you really hold back like this?" Lin Shu lightly poked Song Xiaodong’s thigh and glanced mischievously between his legs.

Song Xiaodong grabbed Lin Shu’s ear and gave it a gentle twist. "What else can I do?"

Lin Shu grew bolder and said, "We’re actually willing. Really. If you don’t believe me, ask Xiao Ling. Both of us together—don’t you want to give it a try?"

Song Xiaodong shook his head, feeling both amused and exasperated. "You little rascal, why are you so good at tempting people?"

"Because I like you! You said you like us, anyway. Graduating college or not, what difference does it make? We won’t change our minds. Isn’t that right, Xiao Ling?"

Zhong Chuling quietly nodded, her face as red as fire.

Song Xiaodong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he resisted the tempting thought. "Still, that’s not good. I can’t just sneakily take advantage of you both. First, I need the approval of everyone involved—that’s my respect for them. Secondly, I truly hope you can complete your education properly. It’s a rare and valuable life experience."

"Oh, right. We’d need the approval of the sisters; otherwise, it’d be like you were sneaking a snack." Lin Shu nodded repeatedly.

Song Xiaodong nodded as well. "Exactly. Just like if you were to join our family and I sneak snacks outside, you wouldn’t like that either, right?"

"True." Lin Shu nodded again and again.

Song Xiaodong let out a sigh of relief and said, "Alright then, can you stop teasing me now?"

Lin Shu blinked her eyes and said, "But even without going all the way, there are still other ways to tease! Like you did with Xiao Ling earlier in the car... Hehe, I haven’t gotten that yet, so I feel cheated. You should treat us equally, shouldn’t you?"

"You... Even this needs equal treatment?"

Lin Shu earnestly replied, "Of course! Xiao Ling and I are best friends; we need to stay in sync with everything. Otherwise, we’d feel off. You wouldn’t want to make us unhappy over this, would you?"

"You..." Song Xiaodong felt both amused and exasperated. "Stop coming up with excuses."

"I don’t care. I insist on this. Otherwise, I’ll feel uneasy. I’m afraid you’ll leave me behind in the future." With that, the little rascal twisted her body and once again sat on Song Xiaodong’s lap.

Song Xiaodong let out a muffled groan and forced a bitter smile. "Alright, you little rascal. But no more outrageous requests."

"Okay, okay." Lin Shu’s eyes lit up as she hugged Song Xiaodong’s neck, her slender waist beginning to twist lightly.

Zhong Chuling immediately blushed and said, "I... I’ll go outside first." She quickly tried to stand up and escape, as the situation felt far too embarrassing, and she didn’t think she should be there to witness it.

But Lin Shu grabbed Zhong Chuling and, blushing as well, said, "Earlier you two were in the car with me watching, so now you can’t leave either. I want you to watch as well... that’s only fair. Hmm... Uncle..."
