Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 680: Jin Lingxiao’s Secret Identity

Jin Shilin took on the role of a courier again.

When handing the cake to Tuanzi, he adjusted his glasses and explained, "I went on a last-minute business trip, passed by Wen Qi’s place, and he happened to mention he had a new product to try, so I brought it over."

Tuanzi couldn’t wait to open the box.

Inside was an exquisitely crafted rabbit cake, with a red scarf around the rabbit’s neck.

"This is just too cute!"

As soon as Tuanzi saw it, she knew this was Wen Qi’s new product based on her rabbit dance.

"Cute enough to..."

Jin Shilin raised an eyebrow, "Reluctant to eat it?"

"Cute enough to eat three in one go!" Tuanzi laughed cheerfully.

Jin Shilin thought, that’s just like his cousin.

Aside from delivering the cake, this courier also brought some cookies, egg yolk pastries, and butterfly pastries that could last a few days.

Tuanzi held the cake in one hand at a distance and reached for those snacks with the other, smiling from ear to ear.

At this moment, she didn’t forget to thank Wen Qi from afar and thank Jin Shilin on the spot.

Jin Shilin calmly sat on the sofa. Hearing this, he adjusted his glasses, "No need to thank me; I have something I need your help with too."

Tuanzi understood instantly, "It’s about your brother, isn’t it? What did he do this time?"

She had only met Jin Lingxiao once, learned he was a homebody and also her fan before she hurriedly went abroad for an exchange meeting. After returning, Jin Lingxiao did not attend the celebration party they held.

Tuanzi didn’t have much of a relationship with him, so his absence didn’t affect her much. Instead, Jin Shilin had prepared two gifts specially.

This rational and highly capable man sighed.

"You should ask what he hasn’t done."

Tuanzi blinked, her mind unconsciously recalling Jin Lingxiao’s actions when they first met.

"He’s lazy about exercising? Doesn’t cook?"

"There are too many to count," Jin Shilin pressed his eyebrow and concluded, "I took him for a check-up this time, and he’s got a ton of problems. His nearsightedness got worse, his blood sugar and blood pressure are high, and he has fatty liver..."

Tuanzi was dumbfounded.

It was the first time she heard of someone having so many issues.

"Some issues aren’t that serious, but," when saying this, Jin Shilin’s eyes sharpened, giving Tuanzi a feeling of being stared at by an old-timey teacher, making her shrink her neck involuntarily, "he must change his lifestyle and eating habits."

"Oh, oh, you want Miaomiao to help him keep track?"

Tuanzi raised her small paw, "Anyway, Miaomiao isn’t working recently, so she can go, but..."

Her eyes twinkled, and she suddenly thought of Zhen Haowei, who hadn’t left the community since returning.

"Actually, Miaomiao has a senior brother who is good at dietary therapy and has come down from the mountain."

She tried hard to hide the sly smile on her face, "Last time Gu Zhuo came over, after eating the meal cooked by the senior brother, his nearsightedness improved."

Jin Shilin believed in dietary therapy but didn’t believe nearsightedness could be corrected after one meal.

Thankfully, Tuanzi promptly mentioned Gu Li’s situation.

The changes in Gu Li’s body seemed reliable.

"Could you trouble your senior brother to come with us?"

Jin Shilin still remembered East Gate West’s dazed look and knew these senior brothers needed time to adapt to life off the mountain. He wasn’t looking for freebies either, "Can I hire him to cook each meal for my brother? Or come once a day; I’m fine with daily, weekly, or monthly payments, and the fee is..."

He offered a very generous price.

Tuanzi dashed upstairs excitedly, "Miaomiao is going to ask the senior brother!"

Zhen Haowei had no reason to refuse.

He could earn money, meet his sister’s cousin, and quickly take his culinary skills to another level.

He gladly agreed.

On this day, Jin Shilin drove his sister and the hired chef to Jin Lingxiao’s rented community.

This time, without needing Jin Lingxiao to open the door, Jin Shilin directly took out a key and opened it.

"Pfft."

Hearing laughter, Jin Shilin looked down, "What’s up?"

"Cousin, did you make an extra key just in case it’s like last time?"

Tuanzi grinned mischievously, "But Lingxiao wouldn’t agree, right?"

Jin Shilin gripped the doorknob, and with that motion, the red shirt sleeve lifted slightly, revealing a lean forearm.

"Force solves all."

He usually preferred reasoning, but when dealing with his stagnant brother, reasoning could turn physical.

Tuanzi nodded her little head in agreement, "Right, right, if words don’t work, then fight... ahem."

As they entered, they heard the sound of a door closing and hurried footsteps.

Going to change shoes, Tuanzi’s eyes widened, "Lingxiao wouldn’t have locked himself away, right?"

She looked around, ready to climb through the window.

"Miaomiao is great at window climbing!"

Jin Shilin, having seen the video, couldn’t find fault with this claim, but he wouldn’t let his sister take risks either.

"Don’t worry; he’ll come out when it’s time to eat."

No matter how much of a recluse Jin Lingxiao was, he would come out to forage when it was time to eat.

"Then I’ll handle the ingredients."

Zhen Haowei was professional about his duties. What wasn’t professional was forgetting this was Tuanzi’s place, flaunting his skills in the kitchen.

Jin Shilin glanced accidentally, falling silent.

Can chefs nowadays make the wok float mid-air?

"It’s the Inner Strength, the Inner Strength!"

Midway through opening snacks, Tuanzi took a glance and was stunned, quickly rushing to explain for the seventh senior brother.

In an attempt to divert Jin Shilin’s attention, she ran to Jin Lingxiao’s bedroom door, placed her hand on the doorknob, and used Inner Strength through the door panel.

With a "click," the lock started to turn.

A few seconds later, Tuanzi successfully opened the door.

"Surprise delivery!"

Her small head popped inside.

Jin Lingxiao, who was trying to hide, looked utterly terrified.

"You, how did you..."

Tuanzi pushed the door open forcefully, waving to Jin Shilin in the living room, "Quick, quick, let’s drag him out together!"

Jin Shilin had to abandon watching Zhen Haowei and haul his elder brother out.

Once in the living room, Jin Lingxiao, like a creature unable to tolerate sunlight, let out anguished cries.

"Brother, why did you open the curtains again?"

Jin Shilin dragged him by the window; the blazing sunlight fell on Jin Lingxiao, making him shriek even louder.

In the opposite building, someone seemed to hear and opened their window to look around.

Jin Lingxiao promptly shut his mouth; he preferred the sunlight to engaging with the neighbors.

Tuanzi folded her arms and circled around.

"Lingxiao, you haven’t changed a bit!"

A guilty Jin Lingxiao glanced around nervously.

Yet, he faced Tuanzi as a fan, unlike some brothers who fixated on maintaining a heroic image.

"Can you take a photo with me and sign an autograph?"

Jin Lingxiao was still thinking about that photo and autograph.

The last time, he only got a photo of her back, and the more he looked at it, the less satisfied he became.

"I-I can show you the videos I’ve edited." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Jin Lingxiao had prepared well.

He specifically edited several film montages, displaying his editing skills without exposing any identities or past praises.

Tuanzi agreed, following him to the study to watch the videos.

After a while, the system spoke unexpectedly.
