1990s: Spring Water Family

Chapter 37 A Cold Sweat Erupted During the Dog Days of Summer

"Riding a bike, what does that mean?"

Lin Xiyu was a little confused when she first heard that Wang Fan was to take a motorcycle ride.

"Haven't you heard of Jinan's three must-have items?"

Li Yan blinked in surprise: "The Combas quartz clock, the Little Duck washing machine, and the Jinan Qingqi brand motorcycle—all three of these products are made in Jinan and are famous throughout the country. Besides the springs, they are another proud calling card of our Jinan, the City of Springs."

"Oh, is that so?"

Lin Xiyu suddenly realized: "I know Combas, but I didn't expect it to be so famous."

"The Combas quartz clock has been used as the clock for CCTV's New Year's Gala for eight consecutive years."

Li Yan straightened her back with immense pride, her eyes sparkling: "Renowned overseas, known throughout the entire country."

"Sister Yan knows so much!"

Lin Xiyu enthusiastically supported the show, saying, "I'm not afraid to admit it, but I watch the New Year's Gala every year and I never knew that Combas was made in Jinan."

"You're still young, it's understandable that you don't pay attention to these things."

Li Yan smiled happily at her flattery: "It's not too late to know now."

"Are we really going to film this already?"

Lin Xiyu glanced at the edge of the pool and said, "I'll go call Wang Fan back."

"Go."

Li Yan nodded with a smile: "By the way, call Xiao Bin back too. Director Du said he also wants to interview them about their college application choices."

"Okay."

Lin Xiyu's eyes lit up when she heard the word "volunteer," and she also became a little curious.

University majors are closely related to future careers, and she was also curious about their thoughts on future career planning.

"Gu Bin, we're making a bet, do you want to join? Whoever wins, Lin Xiyu is their girlfriend."

Wang Fan approached the pool and casually put his arm around Gu Bin's shoulder, trying to get information out of him.

"Who came up with such a self-destructive idea?" Gu Bin shook off his arm, a half-smile on his face. "It wasn't you, was it? Don't play with fire. Be careful that people find out and you get yourself into trouble."

Wang Fan didn't take it seriously: "If you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, who will know?"

"is it?"

Gu Bin gave him a cool look, then suddenly squatted down and patted the head of a little boy who was lying on the edge of the pool, kicking his legs and splashing water happily.

"Xu Yi, he said he'd make a bet: whoever wins, your sister will be their girlfriend. What do you think?"

"Not good!"

Xu Yi sprang up from the ground like a zombie, about to howl in his small voice, "I'm going to tell my sister!"

"Holy crap, who is this kid?"

Wang Fan was so shocked that his heart trembled with rage, and he quickly covered the man's mouth.

"He is Lin Xiyu's younger brother."

Gu Bin smiled slightly, dropping the bombshell in a good mood.

"Lin Xiyu has a younger brother?"

Wang Fan was struck dumb: "Wasn't her father already dead?"

"My half-brother."

Gu Bin patted him on the shoulder and gave him a pitying look.

"Fuck!"

Wang Fan swore again, lowered his head, and looked at the angry brat, breaking out in a cold sweat in the sweltering heat.

He was being foolish. He should have realized that Gu Bin wouldn't teach the little brat to swim for no reason. It turned out that this was the real purpose: to gain favor with his sister by teaching his younger brother.

He tried to trick him into revealing information, but before he could say more than a few words, the other man had already set him up.

When it comes to being cunning and shameless, he admires no one but Gu Bin.

That's a real cunning fox, so shrewd and manipulative that even he couldn't catch up with him on his motorcycle.
