894 YOU ARE MY HEROES
Yan Su knocked her head. "Are you an idiot? Why will it be good if it's Lan dear's enemy? It's a good thing nothing happened to you."
Mu Lan agreed. "Yes, next time, if anything like this happens, tell us or your husband. We will take care of it. Though I'm sure nothing like this happens again. I took care of my enemies."
"It's good then. So, where are your rice balls?" Xue Lin changed the subject.
Mu Lan answered, "Probably they woke up by now. Brother Feng won't let them sleep peacefully. He was waiting to play with them the moment they were born."
Xue Lina asked Yan Su, "Xiao Su, did you bring your daughter as well?"
"Of course, I brought my daughter with me. No one can control her except for Feng. My family would become insane if I kept her with them." Yan Su stated the obvious fact.
"Let's go inside and talk about our heart's content. It has been a long time we got together like that." Mu Lan pulled Xue Lin inside and Yan Su carried Xue Lin's traveling bag.
As Mu Lan predicted, the rice balls were forced to wake up by Mu Feng. Rice ball number one was annoyed and was frowning. Rice ball number two and three didn't mind. They finally met their maternal and paternal uncles face to face. They couldn't be happier. They were playing with Mu Feng and Jonah. They also met their cousin Meixian, a tomboy just like her mother. The three of them became bosom friends. Rice ball number four was dozing off while sitting on Zhuan Zhen's lap.
Jing Sheng came forward after seeing Xue Lin. "Xiao Lin, it has been a while! How have you been?"
Xue Lin gave her usual businesslike smile. Jing Sheng was her client after all. "Miss Sheng, I'm fine. How are you feeling now? Do you still take medicine?"
"I don't have to take medicine at all and it's all thanks to you." Jing Sheng took her hands on her and shook them in gratitude.
"I'm glad that I could help you." Xue Lin couldn't be happier.
"And who is this?" Zhuan Zhen asked, seeing a new face.
"She is my psychiatrist. Because of her, I recovered quickly." Jing Sheng said.
"Mommy, this is Xue Lin. I've told you about her. She is the one who already finished her Ph.D. thesis papers." Mu Lan introduced her parents to Xue Lin. Xue Lin respected those intelligent people who saved people. She nervously shook hands with her friend's parents and said, "I've heard many things about you two. You did so many things and almost lost your lives. You are practically legends and my heroes." She zipped her lips before she could speak any more nonsense.
Zhuan Zhen and Professor Ryuren felt embarrassed upon hearing such heartfelt confession. Professor Ryuren said, "We heard about you as well. You have become a Psychiatrist at the age of twenty-four. You even helped Lanie's mother-in-law. You have earned our respect. We have been wanting to meet you. It's a great pleasure meeting you."
Xue Lin started blushing. "The pleasure is all mine. I wish you were my parents."
Professor Ryuren and Zhuan Zhen became dumbfounded. Mu Lan instantly said, "Hey, I won't hand over my parents to you."
"I'm not trying to steal anybody." Xue Lin stated.
Zhuan Zhen laughed heartily. After a while, she controlled herself and said, "Xiao Lin, you have a great personality. My daughter is lucky to have you. Where do you live?"
Xue Lin replied, "I live in B City with my husband."
Zhuan Zhen said, "B City isn't far from Beijing. Why don't you come to us whenever you are free? We will have fun."
Xue Lin's eyes glittered like a baby who got a new toy. She nodded vigorously. "Most certainly I will join you. May I have your contact number?"
Mu Lan's jaw dropped. "Hey, Xiao Lin, you never showed interest in us when we wanted to be friends with you. We had to force you to tag along."
Yan Su already came back from Xue Lin's guest room. She went there to put her friend's traveling bag. She heard Mu Lan's complaints and agreed. "That's right. Whenever we went somewhere, we practically had to force her to join us."
Qi Ying nodded. "She was always so rigid."
Xue Lin bluntly said, "Because nothing goes well if I tag along with you guys. You attract danger like magnets. I'm not athletic nor do I know any self-defense. One more trip with you and I will die before I could reach thirty."
Mu Lan's parents and the Mu Family burst into laughter. Mu Feng said, "Cough! Cough! This statement is very true."
Yan Su said, "It's not my fault. It's Lan dear. The reason we suffered most was because of her enemies."
"You should know by now that I took care of them all." Mu Lan tried to justify.
"Save it. Who knows how many enemies you will attract in the future? I have a hunch that most of them will be men." Xue Lin said.
Mu Lan paused. She looked at her friend in a horrified expression. Whenever Xue Lin said something, it would be always true. "Are you cursing me?"
Xue Lin moved her right hand as if shooing the idea. "I don't need to. You are already cursed with enemies."
"Ahahaha!" They laughed out.
Mu Lan pouted. She went close to Mu Feng and complained to him, "Brother Feng, look my friend is bullying me. Why aren't you protecting me?"
Mu Feng gulped to moist his dry throat. He was always afraid of scary Xue Lin. To him, she was a She-Devil. If she was the sister of his big brother in her previous life, he wouldn't be surprised. He laughed dryly and said, "Sister Lan Lan, you know I don't fight with women. I'm such a gentleman. How can you tell me to fight against a woman?"
"…" Mu Lan wanted to say so many things but controlled herself. She couldn't say in front of everyone that she told him to skin her aunt alive.
