SSS-level catastrophe? That's my wife!

10:00 AM, Jiangnan University.

Under a clear blue sky, the trainees were training hard in the central square, sweating profusely.

"Brother Mu, you dared to skip physical education class yesterday, I admire you!" Wang Yue said, panting with her hands on her hips, her round face full of shock.

Lin Mu smiled and shook his head: "It's not considered absenteeism, I took leave."

"What?!" Wang Yueban's eyes widened. "Holy crap! You can take leave for this? What reason did you give?"

"I went to the outer city to pick something up, but the car broke down halfway and I can't get back," Lin Mu said calmly.

"This works?"

Wang Yueban's eyes lit up, and he suddenly leaned closer and said, "By the way, Brother Mu, I heard from the bottom of the road that a First-Class Zhen'e Envoy from the Zhen'e Court will be stationed here for three months soon!"

"The principal's connections are incredible!"

Just as Lin Mu was about to speak, his cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang urgently.

Wang Yueban tactfully stepped back a few paces, giving Lin Mu space to answer the phone.

Lin Mu pressed the answer button, and a loud voice immediately came from the other end of the phone: "Son, what are you doing?"

"I'm in class at the academy, what's up, Dad?" Lin Mu asked.

"Um... Yan Yan is home today. You should come back for lunch too. It's been a long time since our family has eaten together." The voice on the phone was full of anticipation.

Lin Mu was slightly taken aback: "Huh? The round trip takes three hours, I'll definitely be late this afternoon."

"What's the big deal? You can just ask for leave this afternoon and leave a little early now, right?" Lin Ye's tone was as relaxed as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Lin Mu wondered if he had misheard: "Dad, didn't you and Mom say that I should study hard in school and not skip classes?"

"That's called asking for leave! It's not skipping class!"

"Alright, that's enough. Hurry back, or your mom will beat you if you're late, and I won't stop her."

Lin Mu's face darkened, and before he could retort, the call was disconnected.

In Wutong Residential Area.

Lin Ye hung up the phone and called out to the living room with a smile, "Wife, I've notified our son!"

No one responded from the living room, but he didn't care. He continued scrolling through short videos, his screen filled with images of long-legged beauties.

On the sofa, Jiang Shuwan held Lin Yan's hand, her face beaming with a smile: "Yan Yan, are you tired from work lately?"

"How many days are you staying this time?"

"I originally wanted to stay a few more days, but the dean said there's an important experiment in two days, so I have to go back tonight."

Lin Yan sounded reluctant, then smiled and said, "But I can come back a few more days next month!"

Jiang Shuwan's smile faded slightly: "Only one day?"

"Mom~ I'll definitely spend more time with you next month!" Lin Yan said coquettishly.

"Okay, then Mom will make more of your favorite dishes."

"Our family hasn't been together for six years."

Jiang Shuwan got up and walked towards the kitchen, calling out to the bedroom, "Still in bed? Hurry up and come to the kitchen to chop vegetables!"

"Coming, coming! I've been waiting for my wife to give me instructions!" Lin Ye ran out happily.

"You have no sense at all! We'll be sleeping in separate rooms tonight!" Jiang Shuwan snorted and went into the kitchen.

Lin Ye's face instantly fell into a grimace: "No, honey, you just finished your period, we can't sleep in separate rooms..."

In a pink-themed bedroom.

Lin Yan opened her handbag with a smile in her eyes and carefully took out a silver-white knife handle.

Her smile instantly became even sweeter, and she muttered to herself, "I can't wait to see what my brother's expression will be when he sees this!"

"They'll definitely jump up in surprise!"

"Hehe, I don't believe he can stay calm like before this time!"

……

Inside Jiangda University, Wang Yueban watched Lin Mu turn to leave and asked curiously:

"Brother Mu, get out of class isn't over yet, where are you going?"

"Leaving early, going home for dinner, bye bro." Lin Mu said and strode away.

"what?"

Wang Yueban stood there stunned for a long time before muttering to herself, "Leaving early and still so self-righteous? I've learned something new..."

A moment later, in the Desolate Tavern.

"Is the car fixed? Can I borrow the keys?" Lin Mu asked calmly.

Gu Cang frowned: "It was just repaired and brought back. Where are you going again? Take it easy this time." He then handed over the keys.

Lin Mu took the keys: "You're overthinking it. I'm just going home for dinner."

Watching Lin Mu's figure disappear through the door, Gu Cang suddenly chuckled: "His acting is really... realistic. For so many years, I actually believed that he was an orphan."

11: 30.

Wutong Residential Area, Anping District.

A black Maybach drove into the residential area amidst envious glances from the crowd.

After turning off the engine, Lin Mu got out of the car and walked quickly towards the entrance of the building.

Several elderly people who were sitting downstairs basking in the sun slowly walked over to the car and looked at it.

"Was that the Lin family kid just now?"

"That's him! He used to visit us when we were kids. Wow, he's really something! His business must be huge, and that car must have cost a fortune!"

"Not even a million or two?"

"A hundred or eighty? It can't be that little; it's probably several hundred or more!"

A door opened.

"Mom and Dad, your wonderful son is back!" Lin Mu walked into the living room with a smile.

"I didn't see how outstanding you were, but you're a master at causing trouble." Jiang Shuwan's voice came from the kitchen, followed by the sizzling sound of stir-frying.

Lin Mu smiled, then looked at the beautiful figure on the sofa and teased, "Wow, Yan Yan is really graceful and beautiful, getting more and more beautiful."

"Hehe, really? Then what's so pretty about me?" Lin Yan asked expectantly.

Lin Mu paused, looking at her carefully: "Yan Yan, have you grown taller again?"

"Brother! What does being tall have to do with being good-looking? Humph, you're just brushing me off as always!" Lin Yan pouted, looking unhappy.

"You brat, you've just gotten back and you're already bullying your sister, huh!" Lin Ye's hearty laughter echoed from the kitchen.

Lin Mu shook his head helplessly: "My status in the family is unmatched..."

Lin Yan burst out laughing, her eyes crinkling into a smile.

Soon, the restaurant was filled with a delicious aroma, and the four people sat down around it.

Lin Ye suddenly spoke up: "Son, did you take the afternoon off? I can take Yan Yan to the station."

"Thank you," Lin Mu said helplessly. "Didn't you all say that we should study hard and not skip classes?"

"Times have changed! Taking my sister to school is more important than going to class!" Jiang Shuwan picked up a piece of fish and gave it to Lin Yan.

"Yan Yan, eat more."

"Thank you, Mom!"

Lin Yan smiled and placed a piece of pork rib into Lin Mu's bowl: "Brother, eat more. Your little sister is always on your side, isn't she?"

At the dinner table, the family started chatting and laughing, filling the small dining room with a long-lost warmth.

4:00 PM, downstairs in Wutong Residential Area.

"Wow!" Lin Yan exclaimed beside the car, "Brother, where did you get this car?"

"You wouldn't... have gone to do those... or those... bad things, would you?"

"Stop imagining things, it's borrowed from a friend, get in the car." Lin Mu had already gotten into the driver's seat and started the car.

Lin Yan opened the car door with a smile, fastened her seatbelt, and sat in the passenger seat.

With a roar of the engine, the Maybach slowly drove out of the residential area.
