Chapter 988: Meeting the Elders of the Goodman Family (1)


Inside a gym owned by the Harmony League.


On the outside, the place looked like a gym. However, it did not accept any gym-goers.


Inside the indoor swimming pool, Han Mengyu and Xing Wei were swimming.


Zhai Yunsheng was lying on top of a nearby deck chair.


His upper body was muscular and well-defined.


Yu Xi was also lying in a seat next to Zhai Yunsheng.


"Master Sheng, do you know the elders of the Goodman family?" Yu Xi asked.


"I don"t know them."


"Huh? Wait but, Lucy and Henry got caught because someone in the Goodman family found out what they were doing. As they were unhappy with what Lucy and Henry were doing, they ended up releasing the incriminating evidence."


"Mhmm," Zhai Yunsheng responded in a low voice.


"Then… It wasn"t you?"


"Nope?"


"Huh? Then who did it? Or was G.o.d Ling just lucky?" Yu Xi guessed as he rubbed his chin.


If it wasn"t for the fact that the elders of the Goodman family dealt with Lucy and Henry, they wouldn"t have resolved this matter so quickly.


Zhai Yunsheng did not respond to Yu Xi"s question. Instead, he sipped a drink.


"Master Sheng, what are you drinking? It doesn"t look like soy milk, ordinary milk, or juice."


"Tonic soup."


"Huh?"


"Yiling made it."


Yu Xi: "..."


Master Sheng was sipping the tonic soup as though it was wine!


Yu Xi was amazed to see this.


Han Mengyu swam for a bit more before he left the pool. He teased Zhai Yunsheng: "Master Sheng tries to keep himself in good health nowadays. He has a regular sleep schedule, eats at regular times of the day, and even drank Chinese medicine a while ago! If it weren"t for his feelings for our sister-in-law, I"d give him a string of Buddhist beads! He"d actually be a monk!"


"Wait really? But don"t you hate those bitter things?" Yu Xi asked in disbelief.


"It"s definitely true! Brother Yunmo prescribed the Chinese medicine!"


"Ahhh… No wonder… It"s care and concern from his future brother-in-law…"


For three whole seconds, Yu Xi felt bad for Zhai Yunsheng. However, he used the remaining fifty-seven seconds to laugh at Zhai Yunsheng.


At this moment, Jian Yiling walked in.


When Han Mengyu saw Yiling, he was incredibly surprised.


"Why is our sister-in-law here? Is she here to check up on you?"


"Put your clothes on!" Zhai Yunsheng ordered.


"Clothes? Where are my clothes?"


Han Mengyu and Yu Xi hurriedly looked for their clothes.


Then, they quickly wore their clothes.


"What are they doing?" Jian Yiling asked as she walked over.


Yu Xi and Han Mengyu had all their clothes on. However, Zhai Yunsheng"s upper body was still naked.


"Nothing much. They were competing to see who could get dressed faster. The loser was going to pay for dinner," Zhai Yunsheng explained.


"Oh."


At this moment, Xing Wei swam over. He was about to get out of the pool.


When Han Mengyu saw this, he hurriedly stepped on Xing Wei"s head.


"Han Mengyu, what are you… Glug glug glug…"


Then, Han Mengyu turned around and said to Jian Yiling: "Sister-in-law, ignore him! He"s practicing holding his breath."


"Okay."


"Why did you suddenly come over?" Zhai Yunsheng asked Jian Yiling.


Jian Yiling looked at Zhai Yunsheng before she replied: "I came to see you."


"Do you miss me?" Zhai Yunsheng asked. He raised his eyebrows.


"Mhmm."


Upon receiving this answer, the corners of Zhai Yunsheng"s lips rose. However, as his friends were next to him, he pretended that he wasn"t very happy.


Yu Xi and Han Mengyu could no longer watch the scene in front of them.
