Chapter 467: – I’m so smart
"Brother in law my ass!
When Lin Jin heard how that guy addressed her brother, her whole face turned dark.
Lin Chen put down the camera in his hand and walked over to the guy. He directly hooked his arm around the guy’s neck and introduced him to Lin Jin with a smile: "This person was the guy who was playing basketball with me last time when you came looking for me late at night. He was also there during the previous basketball game. You can just call him idiot"
Lin Jin expressionlessly nodded and picked up the camera. She checked if there were any issues with the dance just now and completely ignored the man.
"What do you mean Idiot? My name is Chen Sa, okay?" The man shot a dissatisfied glance at Lin Chen beside him and then said, "Brother in law, your sister dances pretty well!"
"No worries, Sa zi!" Lin Chen happily joked with the guy. "Don't you know whose sister she is. My sister is good at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, alright? And most importantly, she's super pretty."
Lin Jin didn't like being talked about by others. Even if they were saying good things about her, she still didn’t like to hear it. She just silently rolled her eyes and then said to Lin Chen: "Change to another angle and record again."
"Coming, coming." Maybe Lin Chen was happy from showing off, he trotted over to Lin Jin and took the camera. He then cheerfully walked to the side and raised the camera to continue.
"Hey, brother in law, why are you guys filming?" The guy named Chen Sa walked over to Lin Chen’s side and curiously looked at the camera in Lin Chen’s hand. Then he glanced at Lin Jin, who had already started playing music on her phone and begun to dance, feeling a bit puzzled.
"How would I know? I just do whatever my sister tells me to do." Lin Chen replied without turning his head.
After that, all Chen Sa could do was stand quietly to the side and watch. Although he had already seen it just now, he found watching Lin Jin dance again was really pleasing to the eye and didn’t feel bored at all.
A very lively girl.
Chen Sa secretly observed Lin Jin. Seeing her dance so happily and the look on her face as if she was really enjoying dancing, he once again thought.
She should be someone who really loves dancing, right? But it seems Lin Chen admired her quite a bit? Or rather, he really listened to her.
After finishing the dance, Lin Jin was already sweating on her face. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand, took a long breath, and after confirming there were no issues with the footage, didn't say anything more. With a cold expression, she took the camera and headed downstairs to go home.
Or maybe a cold and aloof girl?
Chen Sa suddenly felt his impressions of Lin Jin were a bit contradictory.
"Hey, Lin Chen, tell me about your sister?" When Chen Sa saw Lin Jin walk downstairs, he put on a flattering expression and jogged over to Lin Chen's side. "Your sister is so pretty, but I'm only finding out now. You've hid her quite well!"
Lin Chen dismissively pushed Chen Sa aside. "She's studying in Xiamen, just came over during summer break to see me, that's all."
He lazily stretched. In order to keep the camera steady, he was basically motionless while filming. So his bones were really uncomfortable at the moment: "Let’s go, come over to my place and play on the computer?"
"Play play play." As if Chen Sa had the time to think about the computer or anything, his entire mind was on going over to Lin Chen’s place for a good look at Lin Jin. If he could hit it off with her, then that would be even better.
As a man who had finally escaped high school and the saying of no puppy love and was about to enter college, he was currently a little desperate towards this whole find a girlfriend thing. Plus, such a pretty girl actually just so happened to be his friend's sister, so making a move was naturally a bit easier.
Lost in thought, this guy harboring evil intentions toward Lin Jin followed Lin Chen, who was practically inviting a wolf, back to his house.
Then Chen Sa discovered that Lin Jin’s bedroom door was tightly closed. Lin Chen tried to enter but actually fell back. The door was actually straight up locked.
Hearing the sound of running water inside, Lin Jin was probably showering.
Lin Chen knocked but got no response. Also hearing the water, he didn't say anything more and led Chen Sa into his own room.
Then right after sitting down, Lin Chen just seriously looked at the still distracted Chen Sa and said: "Just give up. My sister won't like you."
"Ah?" Chen Sa was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "What’s this about? Liking a pretty girl is very normal, no? It's not like I have to chase her immediately. Even if I wanted to, it would be after we get to know each other better, right?"
"So you should just stop thinking about chasing her." Lin Chen shrugged. Although he didn’t have much contact with Lin Jin growing up, he still understood that Lin Jin would definitely not be looking for a boyfriend at this time.
After all, he knew that not long ago, Lin Jin was still a boy... Plus, Lin Jin had also repeatedly told their mom things like she wouldn't get married.
"Why?" Chen Sa felt that Lin Jin was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life. So being told to back off by his brother in law was a bit hard to accept.
"Because... because my sister likes girls." Lin Chen confidently said, so much so that he almost believed it himself.
Chen Sa was once again stunned.
"Alright, let's play some games!" Lin Chen didn't continue this topic and pulled Chen Sa over to start gaming.
On Lin Jin’s side, she had finished taking a shower and took a glance at the bedroom door. Earlier, she felt she heard a knocking sound but didn’t feel like responding. Now, she was even more lazy about unlocking the door, so she just laid straight down on her bed.
She hadn't been lying down on the bed for long when she heard her mom coming home.
Whenever her mom returned, her footsteps were always particularly heavy as she always wore high heels. The ta ta ta sound of the steps were crystal clear as soon as she entered.
Afterwards, her mom also tried to open Lin Jin's bedroom door but found it locked, so she called towards the inside: "Lin Jin, your cousin is coming over to play in a couple of days."
"Which cousin?" Lin Jin had just lain down and wasn't asleep yet, so she called out from under the covers.
"Your eldest cousin, the one who went abroad and came back." After informing her, her mom went over to tell Lin Chen.
Lin Jin didn't have too much of an opinion on this matter. Anyway, she didn’t particularly care about her cousin.
Moreover, because her eldest cousin had gone abroad, his mental age was much older than hers and Lin Chen's. The three of them together probably wouldn't be able to hang out.
But given her eldest cousin's appearance...
If she tricked him into dancing together, the handsome guy and pretty girl gimmick should be quite powerful, right?
At this thought, Lin Jin's eyes immediately lit up.
You have to know, her eldest cousin’s face was more handsome than Lin Chen’s by quite a bit. No matter how resolute Lin Chen's square face was, it couldn't reach peak handsomeness. Although her eldest cousin’s face wasn’t as chiseled as Lin Chen’s, it also wasn’t soft like those fresh meat boy idols. It could be counted as somewhere in the middle. If it had to be compared to a handsome celebrity, then he would probably have Hu Ge’s type of face.
Just not as handsome as Hu Ge, but not far off.
Yep. As expected, she needed to trick her cousin into dancing. That way, they could have fun together and have things to talk about, she’ll also be able to see her eldest cousin make a fool of himself. And, she could also increase her view count. Yeah.
I'm so f*cking smart.
Translator’s Note: Sa sounds kind of like the word sha zi for idiot.
