All my teammates online are my girlfriends

"Brother Lin Qiu brought a group of girls home!"

185 - Let Mom see for herself!

"So this is Lin Qiu's house? It's quite big."

"Ion Smoke Sister's bar is also quite close."

"It's a pity Xiaoxi isn't here, otherwise it would have been even more lively."

......

Looking at the cozy two-story house in front of them, everyone sighed, but their attention was still focused on the photo album.

"By the way, junior, are your parents home now? Since this is my first visit, I feel a little embarrassed that I only brought such a small gift."

Just then, Yan Rou suddenly asked a question, not forgetting to wave some fruit she had bought along the way.

Her words jolted the others back to their senses, and they stared blankly at their empty hands.

"My parents aren't home, it's okay. Even if they were, there's no need to worry about it so much."

Lin Qiu smiled and waved his hand, guessing that when it came to his mother, the person was much more important than any gifts.

Her words brought a sigh of relief to everyone, but they remained wary.

A bad start, we must not forget that next time!

"Don't stand here, let's go inside."

"oh-"

As everyone followed them inside, Zezhi, who was at the very back, seemed to hear something and turned around with some confusion.

Ying Ziyan had apparently left the group and wandered around outside. When she returned, she was carrying bags and bags of various gifts.

His solemn demeanor, as if he were meeting his future in-laws, left her completely stunned.

Sister Ziyan, it's not time yet, no need to be so formal!

"Well, there aren't many gift shops around, so I just bought some fruit and wine. I hope it's not too shabby for meeting the parents?"

After finally running up to her, Ying Ziyan asked, slightly out of breath.

This is a crucial moment in my life, and I absolutely cannot let myself down. I don't need to be chosen immediately, but it's still necessary to make a good impression!

"Lin Qiu's parents aren't here, Ziyan, you don't need to make such a big fuss."

Ze Zhi explained that she originally thought Yan Rou was overthinking things, but she didn't expect Sister Zi Yan to be so thoughtful, planning to provide a one-stop service and take care of everything else!

"Not here?"

"No, I have to go to work."

"Hey—it's fine. It's just some food and stuff. They can enjoy it when they get back, so it doesn't matter."

Upon hearing this, Ying Ziyan immediately became somewhat dejected, but she still breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After all, I'm quite nervous about meeting your parents. If I accidentally make a mistake, my impression on them will definitely plummet.

It would be better to wait until we have gathered all the intelligence before taking it down in one fell swoop!

"Let's go inside first. This is my first time visiting a boy's house."

Ze Zhi greeted him eagerly, wondering what the shady businessman's room was like, and whether it would be messy.

But judging from how cozy his house looks in the game, it shouldn't be that bad, right?

Watching Zezhi stroll excitedly toward the entrance, Ying Ziyan swallowed nervously, repeatedly reminding herself that this was just a rehearsal, before cautiously following after her.

"It's very clean. Did Chie do the cleaning?"

While changing into her slippers, Yan Rou glanced at the living room, which was spotlessly clean, and asked a question with some surprise.

"Hey, I'm usually in charge of sweeping and mopping! I also cook three meals a day!"

Upon hearing this, Chie laughed heartily. She had nothing to do at home anyway, so she thought it would be a good opportunity to help her mother with some of the housework.

Is your brother's room as clean as the living room?

"Pretty much. Although there are a lot of things, they are all arranged very neatly."

"Don't just stand there, have a seat. Chie, please pour them some drinks."

"Coming!"

At Lin Qiu's call, Chie stopped chatting and ran towards the kitchen with quick, light steps.

Seeing the two busy at work, Yan Rou and the others, who were initially a bit reserved, relaxed considerably.

As for Qin Xuan and Qin Dan on the other side, they were as if they had returned to their own home, cheering and jumping up and down to the second floor.

Sensing the strange looks from everyone, Qin Yunmo scratched his face and casually offered an explanation—

"They've been playing with Chie here for the past few days, so they're quite familiar with each other."

"Hey sis, your clean clothes are all dry now, shouldn't you put them away?"

"..."

Qin Yunmo paused slightly, coughed lightly, and then looked upstairs with feigned composure.

"Let's keep it for now and take it home later."

"Oh, but there are still a few items that haven't dried yet."

"Then let it stay hanging!"

After glaring at Qin Dan, who was grinning and peeking down at him, Qin Yunmo finally turned his attention back to the others.

As if worried they might overthink it, he quickly explained—

"Don't misunderstand, my parents are worried about the two of them, so they asked me to come and keep an eye on them and take them home as soon as possible."

"Ah-we understand."

Yan Rou smiled knowingly, but didn't ask any further questions. However, her meaningful smile made Qin Yunmo feel extremely uncomfortable.

Ying Ziyan wanted to ask more questions about the specifics, but Lin Qiu and Qian Hui had already come over with tea.

"You must be thirsty from the journey. Have some drinks first, and I'll get you some snacks later."

"oh!!"

"No need for all that trouble, let's just sit here casually and look through the photo album."

Zezhi hadn't forgotten the important matter. She frantically gestured to Chie beside her with her eyes. This was the purpose of their group, and they should get it done as soon as possible!

"The photo album is in my room, I'll take you there!"

Chie became interested upon hearing this, as she was quite curious about the identity of Chairman Chen.

That older sister definitely has a huge connection with Brother Lin Qiu!

With Chie taking the lead, everyone's attention was drawn to her, and they all rushed upstairs.

Seeing how hurried these guys were, Lin Qiu shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to prepare some snacks for them, a message suddenly came to his phone.

"Lin Qiu, I'm going home right away. Please stall those girls and let me have a look at them!"

"..."

Lin Qiu's eyelids twitched when she saw the text message from her mother.

What a big deal!

Unaware of the situation, Qin Yunmo and the others had already squeezed into Qianhui's room and found the thick photo album.

"Chie, are all your brother's childhood photos here?"

"Mmm-"

"Do you have any embarrassing photos from your past? Let me see!"

Zezhi asked excitedly, as that was why she had come here.

Once I have a hold on to the unscrupulous businessman's dark past, he can forget about ever getting away with it again!

"Photos from my embarrassing past... let me think, I think I have some, right?"

Chie muttered uncertainly as she flipped through the photo album. Meanwhile, Sawaori and the others craned their necks to look over, their eyes like cameras, constantly recording everything they saw...

186-Meet and Greet

"This...is your brother's childhood sweetheart?"

Looking at the photo of the petite figure wearing a ghost mask and riding on Lin Qiu's waist, everyone's gaze became somewhat subtle.

Lin Qiu, that guy, he was pretty wild when he was a kid...

"My mom said yes, and we used to have a good relationship, but she moved away later, and I haven't had a chance to see her since."

Chie muttered to herself, feeling a little regretful, but that was all. She was a staunch supporter of Sister Yunmo!

Even if my childhood sweetheart comes back, I won't waver!

"What does he look like without the mask? He looks kind of familiar."

"I feel so too."

Everyone stared intently at the little girl in the photo, instinctively sensing a strange, unsettling sense of familiarity.

"Yes, I've seen it before."

Chie flipped through the photo album and finally fixed her gaze on a photo in the corner.

"This is it!"

"Let me see......"

As Zezhi peeked into the photo, she was stunned by the sight of the chubby, innocent-looking face.

Combining a certain figure from her memory, in an instant, Zezhi felt as if the faces of the two people had overlapped.

Despite the drastic change in appearance, Ze Zhi's instincts as an information broker allowed her to confirm that this was definitely the dangerous individual who had self-destructed!

She was so cute with her chubby cheeks when she was little, and she looked so harmless. How come she looks like she's been reincarnated now that she's grown up?!

Compared to when he was a child, that kid's eyes are fiercer now, he's lost his baby fat, and he hardly smiles anymore...

The changes are too drastic!

"Is it that person?"

"Maybe......"

"Imagine what he'd look like after turning evil, with a few bombs strapped to his body—that would be him."

The crowd murmured among themselves, noting that although the appearance had changed considerably, they could still vaguely make out some resemblance.

However, upon closer inspection, Qin Yunmo's pupils suddenly trembled.

So, does that mean Chairman Chen is Lin Qiu's childhood sweetheart? We were betrothed as children?!

Ying Ziyan also realized the same problem. The moment their eyes met, they both understood each other's meaning, and their hearts sank.

What the hell is this luck?!

Just as they were pondering how to deal with this sudden and dangerous individual—

"crunch-"

The grating screech of tires screeching against the ground suddenly erupted from outside, causing everyone to cover their ears in discomfort.

Outside, a white sedan skillfully drifted into a parking space, its perfect distance control ensuring there was no worry about any scratches.

Lin Qiu, who was inside the house, twitched slightly at the corner of his mouth when he heard the noise.

Mom, I've never seen you rushing like this before going to work! Is it really necessary to be in such a hurry?

"Lin Qiu, Mom's back! Aren't your daughters-in-law...? Where are your classmates?"

A few seconds later, Ye Qianhe rushed into the house almost impatiently, not even bothering to change her shoes, and excitedly scanned the living room.

But when she saw Lin Qiu, her face immediately fell.
