Everything I Got from Online Shopping Was Legit

Chapter 27: Su He Caught the Empress with One Arm

“he~~~tui”

The next day, as soon as Lin Mo woke up, he felt something stuck in his throat and hurried to the bathroom.

Sure enough, with a forceful spit, he coughed up a big mouthful of thick phlegm with a faint black color. It was disgusting and even smelled foul.

While rinsing his mouth, he flushed the phlegm down. After fussing around for a while, he finally came out of the bathroom.

With that mouthful of black phlegm expelled, Lin Mo felt his breathing much smoother. He knew this should be the effect of the Poria Throat Lozenges from last night.

A clear voice was only a side effect; the real function was clearing the lungs and expelling phlegm. After all, he was not dissatisfied with his own voice, nor was he a singer, so he had no high demands for his throat.

On the other hand, the effect of clearing the lungs and removing phlegm was indeed excellent, even helping to make his body healthier.

And to feel such obvious effects after just one use was truly surprising.

Although he never smoked, he had inhaled a lot of second-hand smoke since childhood. Boys around him smoked far more than girls.

At home, his elders smoked. After entering school, classmates smoked too, especially in internet cafés where the air was filled with smoke. Even Zhang Wei, when playing games with them, would occasionally light up.

After so many years, his lungs must have accumulated harmful substances to some degree. Therefore, this function of clearing the lungs and expelling phlegm was indeed remarkable.

If products on the market had this effect, then the number of people with lung diseases in the country would be reduced by half.

As for his voice, he did not feel any obvious change. Perhaps he simply could not notice it, or maybe he had taken too little of the medicine.

But no matter what, Lin Mo secretly made up his mind: he could not stop taking it.

At the very least, he had to finish this whole bottle, otherwise wouldn’t it be a waste?

Sitting on the sofa, the temperature outside was still scorching. Unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to go out at all.

Chilled watermelon paired with happy soda was the greatest enjoyment. Especially now that he no longer had financial pressure, Lin Mo was filled with confidence for his future, which made him much more relaxed overall.

Just as he was about to order delivery, he received a phone call from his cousin Su He.

“Hello, Cousin.”

“Xiao Mo, is your vacation here yet?” Su He’s voice came from the other end.

Lin Mo: “Yeah, on break. I’m at home. What’s up, Cousin?”

“Nothing much. I heard your internship period is about to end. By then I might be busy, so I want to celebrate in advance. How about it, do you have time?”

Hearing this, Lin Mo’s first thought was to refuse. He was only finishing his internship, nothing that important. But on second thought, since he had earned some money recently, it was only right to treat his cousin to a meal.

After all, during his university years, Su He had taken care of him a lot. She even came to pick him up when school first started. They were true relatives. Now that he had made a small fortune, he ought to treat his cousin to a proper meal.

“Yes, of course. Just tell me the place, Cousin, and today your little brother will take care of you!”

“Oh please, do I need you to treat me? Don’t bother, just come over to where I live. Hurry now, don’t dawdle,” Su He decided directly.

Lin Mo had no choice. He had originally wanted to treat her, but ended up freeloading again.

Meanwhile, after Su He hung up the phone, Liu Rushuang beside her excitedly asked:

“Well, well? What did our little brother say?”

At this moment, Liu Rushuang wore an off-white shawl over a fishtail camisole dress. Her long hair was casually loose with a beautiful curve.

On her face, she deliberately wore a pair of rimless glasses, fully exuding the charm of a mature woman.

The most outrageous part was that she did not even wear shoes, but wandered around barefoot in the room. Her feet were slender, her ankles had clear lines, and even her toes seemed to glow. She looked like the female lead of a novel brought into reality.

Logically speaking, such an outfit did look good, but Su He always felt something was off.

The two of them were not strangers, so who exactly was she dressing up like this for?

“She said he’s coming. But wait, what does my brother’s coming have to do with you? I told you before, don’t tease my brother!” Su He instantly became wary seeing Liu Rushuang like this.

In response, Liu Rushuang waved her hand nonchalantly: “Oh, isn’t your brother my brother too? Besides, hasn’t he changed quite a lot lately? He’s getting more and more handsome. Even I, as his older sister, can’t help but drool!”

Come on, she had already come over, could they really kick her out? Not worried at all.

“Damn it, I knew something was off with you today. You’re not even nearsighted, yet you’re wearing glasses, and dressed like this. Were you waiting here on purpose? Hurry up, go to the bedroom and change clothes!”

Saying this, Su He grabbed Liu Rushuang by the leg with one arm and dragged her towards the bedroom.

Liu Rushuang: o(>﹏<)o Nooo!

Lin Mo, on his end, was much more straightforward. He simply tidied himself up and left home.

But since he was going to his cousin’s place this time, he naturally could not go empty-handed. He went to the supermarket and bought half a watermelon, a durian, and a box of cherries. With the items in hand, he took a taxi and set off.

His cousin lived alone, renting an apartment near Jiangning Stadium.

She was a girl, and since her income was decent, her quality of life was not bad. From the community environment to the interior decoration, everything was of a refined, petty-bourgeois standard.

During his school years, Lin Mo had visited a few times, so the way was familiar.

Carrying the fruit, he took the elevator up. As soon as he stepped out, he saw his cousin already at the living room door waiting for him.

“Cousin!”

“Xiao Mo? You... this, this, this...”

After a week without seeing him, Su He was stunned for three seconds by her cousin’s appearance.

As she spoke, she hurried forward and pinched his face repeatedly.

“No way, kid, what did you eat to become this fair?”

The last time they met, Lin Mo had already changed a bit, but she hadn’t paid much attention. This time, however, the change was far too obvious. His face looked so tender that it seemed like water could be squeezed out.

“I’ve just been resting well lately, so my complexion improved a little,” Lin Mo said, stepping back. A red handprint remained on his face, showing how strong Su He’s pinch had been.

Then he lifted the items in his hand and said: “I know my cousin likes durian, look!”

His thought interrupted, Su He replied: “You silly boy, why did you buy this? It’s so expensive! You’re still just an intern, your salary isn’t much. Next time, don’t buy it, alright?”

In her eyes, her cousin was still a student who hadn’t graduated. She could not possibly let him spend his money like this. Saying that, she ushered Lin Mo inside.

Just as Lin Mo was changing his shoes at the living room entrance, a familiar voice came:

“Ah, little brother is here, come and sit with your sister for a while.”

Hearing this, Lin Mo looked up and saw Liu Rushuang wearing a loose white T-shirt, her long white legs glowing beneath it. On her face was a pair of rimless glasses, her hair loosely hanging, and she was barefoot, standing not far in the living room, watching him.

For a moment, Lin Mo felt that this woman was damnably sweet.

From mature Liu Rushuang, she had now turned into “senior-sister” Liu Rushuang. The styles were different, but each had its own unique charm.

“Director Liu...” Lin Mo greeted her.

“Hey, this isn’t the company. Call me Sister, or just call me Rushuang.”

At that moment, his cousin Su He spoke:

“Nonsense, just call her ‘mistress’!”

Lin Mo: ???

Liu Rushuang: ...
