Chapter 1060 - I Fancy You, Not Her
Lu Jinwen lugged Lin Xuanji away, leaving Jun Mosheng standing on the spot.
Jun Mosheng, “...”
...
It was Lin Xuanji’s first time being carried by a man, being lifted over his shoulders even. The man had a tall build and it felt so uncomfortable when her stomach was on his shoulder.
She balled her hands into fists, pummeling him with the sensual voice of the 18-year-old her. “What are you doing? Let me down, let go of me!”
The temple had many steps, Lu Jinwen had Lin Xuanji over his shoulder, coming down the stairs with steady footsteps. When she pummeled him, he simply raised his brows. “You’re not being good, are you asking for a beating?”
He lifted his hand, bringing it to her hips as he gave her a slap on her butt.
Pah! He didn’t hurt her, but wasn’t light-handed either. Lin Xuanji’s lashes fluttered, her face flushing red. No one had ever hit her butt, not even her father!
Moreover, she was almost 18 years old, she knew what it meant when a man slapped a woman’s butt.
Jerk!
A**hole!
He was taking advantage of her!
“Let go of me! If you continue to not let go of me, I’ll sue you for molesting me!” She puffed her cheeks up in anger.
Molesting her?
The corners of Lu Jinwen’s lips quirked up into a sardonic smile as he heard her words. “Second Miss Lin, are you really too naive or just blatantly flirting with me? Do you need me to teach you what molesting is?”
He placed his hand on her hip, squeezing her buttock with a firm hand.
Lin Xuanji’s face blazed red all the way to the back of her ears. This... brazen man!
He... squeezed her buttock!
“Sister, save me!” Lin Xuanji screamed.
Lin Xuanyin was here?
Lu Jinwen wasn’t interested in Lin Xuanyin at all, but Lin Xuanji had called him brother-in-law earlier. He just had to find out what exactly was going on.
He stopped and placed Lin Xuanji down.
Once her feet touched the ground, Lin Xuanji turned around to escape. Lu Jinwen’s eyes slightly crinkled into a smile. Lin Xuanyin hadn’t come, she was a little liar!
He stretched his hand out, grasping her slim wrist. “Where are you going?”
“Brother-in-law, what do you want from me?” Lin Xuanji struggled to retract her hand. But no matter how hard she struggled, she just couldn’t retract her hand from his large palm.
A gentle voice was heard. “Ah Hu, Xuanji, what are you two doing there?”
Lu Jinwen lifted his eyes, it was Lin Xuanyin.
Lin Xuanyin and Lin Xuanji were twins, they were both stunningly beautiful and were gems of the Lin family. Long before their coming of age ceremony, they had already been widely known in Karghalik.
But these sisters were uniquely different. Lin Xuanyin was gentle and virtuous while Lin Xuanji was ardent, romantic and talented, stealing the limelight away from Lin Xuanyin with her innocent charm.
“Sister, you arrived at the right time. Look, I don’t know what went wrong with Brother-in-law but he’s refusing to let go of me.” Lin Xuanji pouted her lips as she complained to Lin Xuanyin.
Lin Xuanyin’s gaze landed on Lu Jinwen’s hand that clutched onto Lin Xuanji. With a little jealousy in her voice, she lectured, “Xuanji, stop calling him brother-in-law when he clearly isn’t. I only brought him back because he fainted in the streets. His name, Ah Hu was also given by me. He’s just staying at the Lin family as a footman. Who’s even going to marry him?”
Lin Xuanyin lifted her chin so arrogantly, giving Lu Jinwen a side-eye. “Ah Hu, you’ve been wooing me for such a long time, but you can stop dreaming. I don’t like you and my future boyfriend surely is going to be the son of a distinguished family, someone from the higher society, not a servant like you!”
Ah Hu?
Footman?
Servant?
Lu Jinwen remained composed, not having much of an expression on his face. He had figured everything out. Lowering his eyes to look at his own outfit, Jun Mosheng wore a black cloak while he only wore a simple cotton outerwear in the winter. In this lifetime, he had become a poor man.
But it all didn’t matter to him. Lu Jinwen raised his brows, looking at Lin Xuanyin indifferently. “Did you just say that I liked you?”
Lin Xuanyin instantly revealed a shy, yet proud expression on her face.
“Yeah, Brother-in-law. You fell in love with Sister the day she brought you back. You’d follow her everywhere, even to the point that when her friends don’t see you around, they’ll ask why the footman didn’t follow her around.” Lin Xuanji batted her lashes as she explained.
Lin Xuanyin felt really proud inside. It was just that one fine day when she saw him lying along the streets. Because of her curiosity, she walked over to him when he suddenly opened his eyes. Those almond-shaped eyes exuded such a sharp, piercing aura.
She was frightened, turning around to run away but who knew that he would get up, chasing after her and following her everywhere ever since.
This man suffered from severe concussion and had forgotten his name, so she just gave him the name, Ah Hu.
The sons of distinguished families in Karghalik had all been ranked, the first on the chart definitely was Second Young Master Jun. This Ah Hu definitely wasn’t one of them.
He was probably just a poor fellow who had nothing to his name.
All the while, Lin Xuanyin thought to herself, she would definitely marry into a distinguished family in the future, this poor fellow definitely wasn’t going to be her husband. But he really was too handsome to let go.
Lin Xuanyin took a secret peek at Lu Jinwen again. His facial features were just like perfectly crafted art pieces, every part of his face just seemed perfect.

Whose genes did it take to create such a suave man?
When she had gatherings with her friends, those girls would all peek at him, their faces filled with envy—-Xuanyin, your footman is really suave. How about I pay you to hire him instead.
—-That’s enough, no matter how much money you offer it still won’t work. That footman fancies Xuanyin!
The fact that Ah Hu fancied her was a great boost to her self-esteem, eliminating those insecurities that she had developed after always being overshadowed by Xuanji.
Lu Jinwen glanced at Lin Xuanyin, his voice monotonous. “Oh, I understand now. Elder Miss Lin, let me inform you now, I no longer fancy you.”
Lin Xuanyin gasped. What?! This poor footman dared to say that he no longer fancied her?
After being humiliated so blatantly, Lin Xuanyin’s eyes watered. “Hmph, Ah Hu, I’m leaving. I’m never going to bother with you again!”
She turned around and left.
“Sister!” Lin Xuanji called out.
Lin Xuanyin stopped, she actually was wishing for the man to chase after her.
At the unexpected turn of events, Lin Xuanji looked at Lu Jinwen uncertainly. “Brother-in-law, are you serious? Sister is going to run away after hearing those words you just said.”
Lu Jinwen looked at Lin Xuanji. “Those are her legs, what does it have to do with me if she wants to leave?”
“You...”
“Second Miss Lin, are you trying to show off to the loser now, since I don’t fancy her, but I fancy you instead!”
