The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 440: New School Society



Song Linger’s head shook like a drummer’s toy, repeatedly denying, “No, no, my dad only asked if you could concoct pellets, and I told him you could. Other than that, I didn’t mention anything.”

“That’s good. Don’t let anything slip to your dad, we need to make money from him,” Xiao Shun said with a chuckle.

“Master, rest assured, I definitely won’t tell my dad,” Song Linger asserted firmly.

If Song Qingzhou heard her say this, he would probably almost spit blood. His own daughter seems closer to her master than to him! Is there any justice in the world?

Song Linger was trustworthy, and Xiao Shun had no worries about her revealing the secret formula.

“Master, our ‘Old School Society’ doesn’t have a name yet, right? We can’t just call it Old School Society like them. People won’t be able to tell us apart,” Song Linger said, peeling an orange to hand to Xiao Shun.

“We indeed need a name,” Xiao Shun replied, accepting the orange and mumbling with a mouthful of fruit.

Song Linger might not have thought about this issue if it wasn’t mentioned, so she couldn’t think of a suitable name on the spot.

“Expand your thinking, ponder a bit, and come up with a name as soon as possible,” he told Song Linger.

So, Song Linger started to brainstorm. She quickly suggested more than a dozen names like “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Avengers Alliance,” and so on, which could be thought of without much effort.

Naturally, Xiao Shun vetoed them all.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

After a long time of thinking on the couch, they finally tentatively settled on a name: “New School Society.”

Song Linger’s reasoning was simple: their opponents were called Old School Society…

Even though Xiao Shun wasn’t completely satisfied, it was certainly a more formal name than “Avengers Alliance.” So, they decided to stick with it.

Since they had to go to the airport to send Tang Shishi off that night, Xiao Shun called Yao Cen to inform him that they wouldn’t be coming back for dinner to avoid the trouble of going back and forth.

After having dinner at the small courtyard, Xiao Shun, Duan Jia, and Song Linger drove to the hotel where Tang Shishi was staying, picked her up, and then headed to the airport together.

When Tang Shishi came out of the hotel, she only carried a handbag.

Curious, Song Linger asked, “Shishi, where’s your luggage?”

“I don’t have much luggage. I asked colleagues from the office to pack up for me. I can use it when I come back next time. I don’t have to carry luggage back and forth,” Tang Shishi replied.

“You’re really carefree,” Song Linger said with a laugh.

In reality, she had rushed here from the construction site and hadn’t brought any luggage. After arriving, she bought a couple of changes of clothes during her spare time, using mostly daily necessities provided by the hotel.

This wasn’t a big deal for her. Even though she had been pampered since she was little, she loved running around as she grew up. She had experienced many hardships, so she wasn’t that delicate.

While leaning on Song Linger’s shoulder, Tang Shishi hinted, “When you’re free, come to the capital to play with me. Don’t always stay in that small courtyard. I’ll introduce you to more friends, so you won’t be fooled by certain people.”

While speaking, she glanced knowingly at Xiao Shun who sat in the front seat.

“Sure, I’ll definitely go when I’m free,” Song Linger agreed laughingly.

“I know many handsome guys. I’ll introduce you to some when the time comes,” Tang Shishi said with a mischievous grin.

“Huh?” Song Linger asked, perplexed.

“Linger, don’t get too close to this troublemaker. She’s not a good person. Don’t let her lead you astray,” Xiao Shun’s voice came from the front.

“What’s it to you if I introduce Linger to handsome guys? Why are you in such a hurry?” Tang Shishi retorted.

Xiao Shun was left speechless. One of the most foolish things in the world is to argue with a woman. He could only rub his nose and remain silent.

“Actually, Shishi, you don’t need to. I don’t like handsome guys,” Song Linger said.

“Oh, no wonder you’ve fallen for someone. You must like the ugly ones,” Tang Shishi laughed.

“No, no,” Song Linger felt cornered and kept denying.

Did she take some wrong medicine today? Why is she picking on me? Xiao Shun wondered silently as he listened to their conversation.

Tang Shishi was in a bad mood, and it was inexplicably bad, perhaps due to the impending departure. She had traveled all over in the past and was often faced with farewells, but it was never like this. Each time she parted with Xiao Shun, she felt a sense of oppression. She needed to vent this depression, so she naturally picked on Xiao Shun.

The hotel was a thirty-minute drive from the airport, and they soon arrived. When she saw Xiao Shun getting out of the car on his own, she was taken aback, and her gloomy mood seemed to evaporate instantly.

“You… you can walk now?” she asked Xiao Shun, looking surprised.

“What, do you think I would always be in a wheelchair? Then I would truly be handicapped,” Xiao Shun said with a smile.

He wouldn’t get angry just because Tang Shishi teased him a few times. After all, this girl had taken a knife for him once. She had made a special trip from the capital to visit him, and besides, he was not a petty person.

“No, I saw you still needed a wheelchair yesterday, and today you can suddenly walk. This doesn’t make sense,” Tang Shishi said with a big smile.

“I’m almost fully recovered. When you go back, tell your dad not to worry about me,” Xiao Shun said. He thought that Tang Li must also be worried that if anything happened to him, the company for the scar removal ointment would be ruined.

“I understand,” Tang Shishi said.

Xiao Shun and the others accompanied her into the airport, and they soon reached the security check.

Tang Shishi turned around and hugged Song Linger, “Come visit me when you’re free.”

“Take care,” Song Linger wished her.

Then she walked over to Xiao Shun and gave him a hug, “Take good care of your injuries.”

“Safe travels,” he wished her in return.

Duan Jia moved half a step forward, raising his arms slightly to prepare for Tang Shishi’s hug, but after hugging Xiao Shun, Tang Shishi turned around and walked straight towards the security check.

“Mr. Xiao, I feel that Miss Tang is discriminating against me…” Duan Jia said with an awkward expression.

Xiao Shun turned his head to look at him, “Maybe, I’ll remind her next time we meet not to discriminate against people who are not handsome.”

Duan Jia: “…”

If you’re going to do something big, you should be well prepared.

Two days later, Xiao Shun’s body had recovered to about 70-80%. Early in the morning, he went into the mountains and returned to the small loft storeroom where he used to live with his master.

Xiao Shun had too many things in his mind, all jumbled up. Many things were remembered in a chaotic way. He needed to come back and sort out the formulae his master had left behind.

He was actually very familiar with these formulae, but after a long time, he needed to get familiar with them again.
