This man was more handsome than all the idols Lin Luo had seen in her previous life.
He had thick eyebrows, small ears, and rosy lips. He had an androgynous sort of beauty. He was handsome and gorgeous.
Lin Luo couldn't help but whistle at him.
After guarding Island R all year round, Lin Luo knew that she had to take the initiative in order to get what she wanted. Although she didn't have to guard that small lousy island anymore in this life, she couldn't help but catcall when she saw such a handsome man.
But speaking of which, this face… was a little familiar.
He seemed to be her neighbor.
Yan Su's expression darkened as he questioned in a low voice, "How much longer are you going to sit on me?"
Lin Luo slowly got up from the other party's body. "You suddenly appeared at my house, so I thought there was a thief."
It wasn't her fault.
Well, she couldn't be blamed entirely.
Yan Su glanced at her indifferently before staggering away with his hand on his waist.
When Lin Luo walked into the house and saw the bowl of fresh fish soup noodles, only then did she know that she had misunderstood him.
The fish soup was milky white and steaming. There was a crispy egg lying on the surface, and there were a few green onions sprinkled on it. It looked extremely delicious. However, Lin Luo knew that this bowl of fresh fish soup noodles only looked delicious.
After she took a sip of soup, she realized that she was right. With a slight flip of the noodles, she could see large pieces of ginger underneath.
Yan Su had come to Little Bay Village three years ago to settle down.
Three years ago, when the new emperor ascended the throne, he received a divination and sent the original 30,000 families to move to the Baiyue Region. Most people chose to stay in the Shen Region and Wuyue Region, which were closer to the Central Plains. However, Yan Su came to the southernmost land.
Coincidentally, there was an empty courtyard beside Lin Luo's house, so Yan Su and Lin Luo became neighbors.
At that time, the original host had already lost her parents and could barely survive. Once, she fainted in front of Yan Su's door. Although she choked on the bowl of spicy fish noodles, she was finally able to fill her stomach.
Even a fool knew how to weigh the pros and cons. After that, she wandered around Yan Su's courtyard often.
As for Yan Su, he seemed to despise the original host for being dirty and was unwilling to let her enter his courtyard. However, he would send the original host a bowl of fresh fish soup noodles every two days.
Yan Su hadn't spoken to the original host that much in the past three years, but he lent a helping hand often.
Qiao Sheng kept saying that he wanted to marry her, but he treated her worse than a dog.
Dog owners would at least give dogs some leftovers, but Qiao Sheng forced the original host to fish, catch shrimp, and find pearls every day!
Lin Luo lowered her eyes and finished the entire bowl of fresh fish soup noodles without saying a word. Then, she tugged at her wet red coat and returned to the room to change her clothes.
However, when she saw the dirty clothes that hadn't been washed for countless years, Lin Luo was exasperated.
She used to be the cleanest person in the entire garrison army!
She was someone who kept the garrison infirmary spotless for seven consecutive years!
After closing the closet, Lin Luo rummaged around the house. She took the only two green onions and knocked on the door of the house next door.
Before anyone could respond, a sweet voice came from behind her.
"Lin Luo, why are you here?" Lin Ying carried a small flower basket, which was covered by a white cloth with red floral patterns. She sized Lin Luo up as she said, "It's quite shocking that you didn't drown. As expected, a jinx only curses other people and never herself."
Lin Ying said these sorts of sarcastic words to Lin Luo quite often.
This fool didn't understand anyway.
The next time Lin Ying saw this fool, this fool would still smile brightly at her.
Everyone praised Lin Ying for being the most beautiful girl in Little Bay Village, but Lin Ying had once seen her aunt help Lin Luo dress up and conceal the birthmark on half of her face. At that time, Lin Luo looked drop-dead gorgeous.
Ever since then, Lin Ying had hated Lin Luo.
Why did a dim-witted fool have to be so good-looking?
The moment Lin Ying appeared, Lin Luo sensed her. A cold look flashed across her beautiful eyes.
As soon as Lin Ying finished speaking, Lin Luo quickly slapped her.
Lin Luo had quite some strength after eating the noodles, so she didn't hold back at all.
Lin Ying was dizzy from the slap.
"Idiot, you actually dare to slap me?!" Lin Yingxu covered her face and looked at Lin Luo in disbelief.
"This slap is for disrespecting your elder and cursing your older cousin." Lin Luo sneered. Then, she slapped Lin Ying's other cheek, causing Lin Ying to collapse to the ground with her mind buzzing.
"This slap is for instigating others to harm your cousin."
Lin Luo flexed her arm and tilted her head with an innocent expression as she said, "I'm a very kind person. If you scold me once, I'll slap you once. How many times have you scolded me since I was young?"
Since Lin Ying had sent herself to Lin Luo, how could Lin Luo let go of this good opportunity?
Just as Lin Luo's slap was about to land again, Yan Su's door opened.
Tears welled up in Lin Ying's eyes. "Brother Yan, my cousin is crazy. She wants to kill me!" As she spoke, she ran towards Yan Su's arms.
Lin Luo took the opportunity to extend her leg and successfully tripped Lin Ying.
After Lin Ying fell, the white steamed buns in the basket rolled to Yan Su's feet.
Yan Su looked at Lin Luo.
Lin Luo lowered her head and started humming a tune.
"Brother Yan, look at her!"
Lin Ying gritted her teeth and glared at Lin Luo. Didn't she know that white steamed buns were more precious food in the south? She was doted on at home, so she was able to bring two white steamed buns out to give to Yan Su!
"Miss Lin, why are you here today?"
Yan Su didn't answer Lin Ying. Instead, she picked up the white steamed buns, swept away the dust, and placed them back in the flower basket.
Lin Ying stared at Yan Su infatuatedly.
Little Bay Village was at the coastline, so its people had been fishing for generations. The men in this village, regardless of whether they were handsome or ugly, all had a fishy smell.
Yan Su was refreshing and aloof.
Moreover, Yan Su was the most handsome man in Little Bay Village.
He was cultured, so he would definitely become a high-ranking official in the future.
Lin Ying didn't want to be a fisherman for the rest of her life. She wanted to be an official's wife.
"The last time I couldn't break open the shell, it was you who helped me. Coincidentally, my family made some steamed buns, so I wanted to send some over to you." Lin Ying covered her face as she sobbed. She thought that she looked charming and pitiful, but she ignored the two palm prints on her face.
Other than the area covered by the handkerchief, the palm prints on both sides of her face were exposed, so she looked very comical.
"No need. Take them back."
With that, Yan Su walked back, but then he stopped after taking two steps and held his waist.
Just now, Lin Luo really hadn't shown any mercy at all.
"Yan Su, I have something to tell you."
Just as Yan Su was about to close the door, Lin Luo grabbed the door frame.
Yan Su looked at Lin Luo.
Lin Luo glanced at Lin Ying, whose eyes were filled with jealousy, and asked with a smile, "Can I go in and talk?"
"No! Even I've never been in Brother Yan's courtyard before!" Lin Ying got up to grab Lin Luo.
