    Chapter 564: Falsehoods Men Always Spin (2 Updates)

    On a police utility van en route to the Ordnance Factory. Lin

    Xiao Yu pulled out his phone and opened WeChat.

    A WeChat chat window.

    Xiao Yu: Research shows that most guys have fantasized about being pinned and kissed forcefully by the one they love, struggling wildly until resistance failed… Sis, when I get home, want to give it a try?

    Mu Qingwu: Oh.

    Xiao Yu: If you act like that, I’ll be really mad.

    Mu Qingwu: Really?

    Xiao Yu: Treat me just like that. If you’re not a bit sweeter, I’ll end up being someone else’s precious darling. Hmph!

    Mu Qingwu: Really now? Aren’t you forgetting something?

    Xiao Yu: Forget something?

    Mu Qingwu: I’ve now got two moms.

    Xiao Yu: And then?

    Mu Qingwu: Turns out my two moms were once the provincial sanda champion and runner-up respectively. Brother, isn’t that a coincidence?

    Xiao Yu: …

    Mu Qingwu: Now, be good and solve your case promptly. Get home early… and don’t forget to eat on time.

    Xiao Yu: Don’t worry about me. When I’m hungry, I’ll just scavenge some leftovers… (crying emoji)

    Mu Qingwu: Make sure you pick something clean; don’t end up with a stomach ache.

    Xiao Yu: … Maybe I should write two books – one titled ‘Family Hierarchy’ and the other ‘Men Who Get on Their Knees’?

    Mu Qingwu: Once you’re done, send them to me. I’ll shower you with flowers and rewards.

    Xiao Yu: I’m pissed. I don’t want to talk.

    Mu Qingwu: Alright then… my bad, sis…

    Xiao Yu: No way. Don’t forget who the king is in our family.

    Mu Qingwu: What would keep you from being angry?

    Xiao Yu: How about a quick lesson in femininity?

    Mu Qingwu: Hubby is the heavens, the earth, a treasure – simply the best in the world. Without hubby, life’s impossible…

    Xiao Yu: Hehehe.

    Mu Qingwu: Stop being mischievous and get back to work.

    Xiao Yu: Mm.

    Mu Qingwu: I miss you. And Mu Mu misses Daddy too.

    Xiao Yu: I miss you all as well…

    ……

    A gentle smile spread across Xiao Yu’s face.

    It made his usually radiant expression even warmer.

    Not only could it captivate any woman, but it also had two older bros rolling their eyes.

    “I mean, aren’t you and your sister’s love days lasting a bit too long?”

    Wang Dong teased, “Your kid’s already six or seven months old and you’re still all lovey-dovey?”

    Zhao Long chuckled silently, his stern face softening as he thought of his wife and children.

    “That’s just pure jealousy.”

    Xiao Yu set his phone down (chdj) and replied, “No matter how long my sister and I are together, we’re always in the honeymoon phase.”

    “You’ve got to be kidding me.”

    Wang Dong scoffed, “Me? A mature, level-headed middle-aged man jealous of you? You don’t even know how much your sister-in-law adores me. We’re also madly in love.”

    “Stop bragging.”

    Xiao Yu retorted dismissively, “That’s just her not wanting to handle you. Otherwise, she’d show you what cruelty really is in no time.”

    “Damn.”

    Wang Dong huffed, “I don’t believe it. With my IQ, there’s no way your sister-in-law could control me!”

    “Let me ask you a few common questions women tend to ask.”

    Xiao Yu grinned wickedly, “Let’s see if you can answer them.”

    “Who’s afraid of whom?”

    Wang Dong scrunched his face, clearly discontent and defiant.

    “Listen up.”

    Xiao Yu laughed, “If your ex-girlfriend gets drunk and calls you to pick her up, would you go?”

    “Uh…”

    Wang Dong blinked, “There’s no way I’d go!”

    “Haha!”

    Xiao Yu burst out laughing, “Then why do you still keep your ex’s number? Do you still have feelings for her?”

    Wang Dong was left dumbfounded.

    “Even a middle-aged charming man like you?”

    Xiao Yu smirked disdainfully, “One more chance. If your ex gets drunk and calls…”

    Wang Dong quickly interjected, “I wouldn’t answer her call.”

    “Oh, trying to jump in?”

    Xiao Yu chuckled, “Then tell me… why do you still have her number? Clearly, you haven’t let go.”

    Wang Dong nearly had a heart attack, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

    Damn, if my wife were to ask these questions…

    What if I flub the answers and end up getting beaten to death?

    “Youth.”

    Xiao Yu sneered, “One more chance. If your ex…”

    Wang Dong: “I don’t even have her contact.”

    A bead of sweat rolled down as Wang Dong hurriedly said, “I could never answer her call, much less go!”

    “Hahahaha!”

    Xiao Yu and Zhao Long erupted in laughter.

    “Help me out here—look how scared the kid is!”

    “Any more questions?”

    Wang Dong, learning his lesson, glared at his little bro, “Now you’ve got no way out, right?”

    “Hmph!”

    Xiao Yu sneered, “Here’s the next: why did you ever have an ex?”

    Wang Dong, at a loss for words, mumbled, “Every normal man has been in one, haven’t they?”

    “Who said that?”

    Xiao Yu smiled, “I haven’t. My sister was my first love.”

    Wang Dong: …

    Zhao Long: …

    Both older bros were practically about to slap themselves, overwhelmed with an uncontrollable urge to vent their frustrations.

    “I learned so much from my sister.”

    Xiao Yu grinned at his two older bros, “Sometimes a woman’s wit is terrifying. For instance, all those lies us men tell—they just don’t want to expose the truth.”

    Wang Dong and Zhao Long looked at each other, uncertain, “Lies that guys tell?”

    Xiao Yu nodded, “Yeah, like…”

    Xiao Yu continued, “You’re the first truly loved girl in my eyes… you’re different from every other woman… I only want hugs and nothing more… you’re stunning even without makeup… I wouldn’t go for the big show; everyone else does, but I find outside women filthy… How could any of my exes compare to you… As long as you never say ‘break up’, we’ll never part… I’ll always treat you right and never lose my temper…”

    Cold sweat streamed down the foreheads of the two older bros.

    Not every word from Xiao Yu was entirely accurate, but several points hit the mark.

    Could it be that most of these sentiments have actually been said by men to women?

    “Stop treating women like fools.”

    A flash of a smile appeared on Xiao Yu’s face as he added, “They just pretend to be clueless when they’re in love, enjoying the sweet lies and hearing what they want to hear. Otherwise… not even ten dog lives would be enough!”

    At that moment, a police car pulled into the Ordnance Factory.

    The expressions on their faces instantly turned serious.

    They waited as the police car parked and officers got out.

    Xiao Yu spotted a general, three academy officers, a dozen soldiers, and several poised civilian officials.

    What was destined to happen, had to happen!
