1990, Reborn as a Beachcomber, From Rascal to Brilliant Guy

"Ah Xian, what about you? Who do you want to spend your life with?"

Seeing that Lin Yaoguang had misunderstood him, Lin Shuisheng didn't try to correct him. Instead, he looked at his younger sister, Lin Shuixian, who was standing quietly to the side, watching the drama unfold.

"I?!"

Lin Shuixian's eyes widened, and she pointed her finger at her nose with a look of astonishment.

She never expected that she would have a share in the division of the family property.

"Of course, you're not married yet! Dad just said that he'll be living with my older brothers, while Grandma and Mom will be with me. It'll just be you and Aling at home. We can't expect you two to cook for yourselves, can we?"

Lin Shuisheng nodded to Lin Shuixian and softly offered an explanation.

"Oh right! I almost forgot!"

When Lin Shuixian heard the words "start cooking," she suddenly shuddered, and then her gaze kept sweeping across the faces of her three older brothers and two sisters-in-law.

Although Lin Yaoguang and Chen Xiurong were responsible for saving up her dowry, she wasn't sure when she would get married.

In order to live a more comfortable life in the future, she must choose a reliable and good brother who can make money.

Upon seeing her gaze, both Lin Chaosheng and Li Chanjuan, as well as Lin Haisheng and Su Meilan, revealed a warm and expectant smile.

After all, who wouldn't want a beautiful, cute, and capable Dehua in their family who doesn't require saving up for a dowry?

Especially Lin Haisheng and Su Meilan, who will soon be expecting their first child after Ye Wanqing finishes her postpartum confinement.

If they weren't worried that speaking directly would upset Lin Chaosheng and Lin Shuisheng, they probably would have already stepped forward to negotiate with Lin Shuixian.

In comparison, Lin Shuisheng appeared rather indifferent.

He knew that apart from his mother and grandmother who favored him, everyone else in his family thought he was unreliable.

In the current situation, it would be normal not to choose him.

"I want to go with Third Brother!"

After a while, Lin Shuixian suddenly walked to Lin Shuisheng's side and grabbed his arm.

Upon seeing this, the smiles on Lin Chaosheng and the others' faces instantly froze.

"No, you're not kidding, are you?"

Lin Shuisheng paused for a moment, then looked at Lin Shuixian with a face full of surprise.

"No! I'm serious."

Lin Shuixian shook her head, then nodded.

"Then what are you after?"

Lin Shuisheng's eyes narrowed, his gaze filled with confusion.

Upon hearing this question, everyone else looked at Lin Shuixian with some confusion, including Chen Xiurong and the old lady.

The reason they were willing to live with Lin Shuisheng was because they were worried that he wouldn't have a good life and wanted to help him out.

What was Lin Shuixian's motivation?

Saying she wants an easy life is ridiculous; Ye Wanqing has just given birth, and she won't be able to relax for several years.

She said she admired Lin Shuisheng's success, but everyone knew that Lin Shuisheng was still in debt.

We can't just starve to death following Lin Shuisheng, can we?

"Hey, you promised to buy me a new outfit, you haven't forgotten, have you?"

Lin Shuixian frowned and glared at Lin Shuisheng with a hint of anger.

"No, is that all?"

Lin Shuisheng was both amused and annoyed by Lin Shuixian's words.

"Otherwise!"

Lin Shuixian rolled her eyes, then glanced at Lin Chaosheng and Lin Haisheng.

"Besides, after my eldest and second eldest brothers separate the family property, they will definitely need to build new houses. It would be too inconvenient for me to live there with them!"

You're different. It'll probably take three to five years, or even seven or eight, for the house to be built, so you'll definitely have to continue living here with your grandma and grandpa.

This way, it will be much more convenient for me to live with them.

"And you promised to buy me a new outfit, I can't be ungrateful and abandon you at this crucial moment, can I?"

After saying that, she puffed out her chest in a very righteous manner, her face full of pride.

"You make a very good point!"

Lin Shuisheng's lips twitched, and he gave Lin Shuixian a thumbs up.

Before Lin Shuixian could raise her chin and reveal a smug smile, he shook his head again, chuckled, and said:

"It's a pity I probably won't be able to live here anymore!"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Lin Shuixian, was stunned for a moment.

Then, before they could ask any questions, Lin Shuisheng reached out and picked up the sack, took out bags of clothes from it, and stuffed them into the hands of Lin Shuixian, Chen Xiurong, Huang Suzhen, Li Chanjuan, and Su Meilan.

"Here, this is a gift I specially bought for you in the city."

"This...this is a dress?!"

Wow! This polyester shirt is so beautiful!

"It even comes with a little skirt! But... isn't it a bit too short? It's so embarrassing!"

"Ah Shui, where did you buy all these clothes? The fabric is great, and the styles are beautiful too!"

"Wow, this...this even includes something for Ah Tao!"

"Ah Shui, what about me?"

"Yeah! They all have them, why don't Ah Chao and I? You haven't forgotten about us, have you?"

"Here! This is for you!"

Soon, Lin Shuisheng took out two genuine cowhide belts from the sack and handed them to Lin Chaosheng and Lin Haisheng.

"Wow! If I'm not mistaken, this should be genuine leather! It's high-end stuff!"

"Hehe, it's good that we've been spoiling you all this time, you even knew to buy us such a nice belt."

Watching the two brothers, Lin Chaosheng and Lin Haisheng, happily gesturing with genuine leather belts around their waists, Lin Yaoguang stood to the side with his arms crossed, maintaining the airs of a father, but his eyes kept glancing at the burlap sack that Lin Shuisheng was carrying.

Lin Shuisheng seemed to have forgotten about him, carrying a sack as he walked past him without stopping at all.

He was suddenly stunned, and his face gradually darkened.

Just as he was feeling embarrassed and about to turn back to his room, his peripheral vision caught Lin Shuisheng's hand as he took it out of the sack. He froze instantly, his eyes fixed on the stacks of hundred-yuan bills in Lin Shuisheng's hand.

this...

How does this loser have so much money?

Wow!

Just then, Lin Shuixian finished admiring her new clothes, and when she looked up, she saw the hundred-yuan bill in Lin Shuisheng's hand. She was immediately startled.

"Third Brother, you...you...how do you have so much money?"

Upon hearing her voice, everyone looked up at Lin Shuisheng, and when they saw the stacks of hundred-yuan bills, they were all completely dumbfounded.

"My God, Ah Shui, did you go rob a bank?"

After a while, Lin Chaosheng rushed to Lin Shuisheng and stared at the hundred-yuan bills with shining eyes.

Immediately afterward, before Lin Shuisheng could explain, Lin Haisheng also rushed forward, his eyes fixed on the hundred-yuan bills, counting them stack by stack with his hand.

"One, two, three, four, my goodness! This...this can't possibly be a whole forty thousand dollars?!"

"Get out of my way, all of you!"

At this moment, Lin Yaoguang also reacted, strode over, pushed Lin Chaosheng and Lin Haisheng aside, stared at Lin Shuisheng with a serious face, and asked in a deep voice:

"Ah Shui, you'd better tell me honestly, where did this money come from?"
