I'm Really Not The Demon God's Lackey Chapter 33

Lin Jie twitched the corners of his mouth with a delicate expression.

If it wasn’t for his own image, his current expression should only be described as “subway, old man, mobile phone.jpg”.

He has seen all kinds of guests in the past three years, but he has never seen anyone who came up to wrestle with him.

The store has been open for so long, no, including the time when I was a university lecturer before time travel, I have never heard such a strange request…

Will a normal person choose “arm wrestling” among the three options of “borrowing books, buying books, and reading books”? Is this appropriate?

This is obviously not appropriate.

Out of the instinct of a life mentor, Lin Jie felt that there must be something strange in it.

He looked at the girl in front of him again.

There is no makeup on the face and the skin is fine.

The quality of the workmanship of the clothes is quite good, the hat seems to be a very famous brand, and the edges of the shoes are stained with muddy water.

But the shoe prints left on the ground are all clean, and they should have been washed away at the stagnant water at the door.

It can be seen from the subtleties that this little girl’s personal cultivation is quite good.

It is especially worth noting that the thick red hair is well maintained, like the soft fur of an orange cat, which makes people want to touch it.

From the above, it can be seen that her family background should be very good.

And Lin Jie recalled the girl’s expression just now, and could see a little nervousness and disappointment in her expression.

She was very sure in her heart that she should have come here specifically for her own bookstore, not for shelter from the rain like Ji Zhixu.

Then, why did such a girl from a wealthy family who obviously never lacked in entertainment suddenly come to his bookstore…to wrestle with him?

Lin Jie felt that, for the time being, his bookstore did not have any characteristics that could attract people to come here despite the heavy rain.

No, wait.

His number of new guests has increased recently. Is it because the new guests are promoting?

Ji Zhixu, Joseph… Joseph?

Lin Jie’s gaze suddenly became sharper, and he folded his hands, examining the girl in front of him.

Although it was very inconspicuous, her appearance was vaguely similar to Joseph’s, especially her eyes.

It may be strange to say this, but… Although Joseph looks like an old tough guy now, it can be seen from the facial features that he was definitely a handsome guy when he was young.

So the correct way to say it should be that the girl in front of her is very similar to the young Joseph.

Lin Jie had an intuition at this moment that the girl in front of him definitely had a direct kinship relationship with Joseph.

Before he knew it, he didn’t realize that he had been staring at the girl in front of him for nearly a minute.

This deep gaze and wordless silent scrutiny brought an invisible pressure.

Melissa, who was so imposing with her hands on the counter, took her hands back and put them on her knees stiffly for some reason. Can’t it?”

Obviously this guy still looks very ordinary, why do I suddenly feel like I did something wrong?

That’s it… What’s the matter with this feeling of being reprimanded by Dad for doing something wrong? !

The girl fell into an annoyance of “opposite ≈ father”.

Lin Jie came back to his senses, realized his impoliteness, cleared his throat and said, “Of course arm wrestling is fine, but I have two questions I want to ask first, is that okay?”

Melissa nodded: “What’s the problem?”

Lin Jie stretched out a finger: “The first question, are you here because of Joseph?”

Although it is a question, it is actually an affirmative sentence.

Melissa’s heart skipped a beat, she didn’t expect the other party to say Joseph’s name directly.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at the young man opposite with some surprise.

At the same time, the ominousness in my heart became stronger and stronger.

“Looks like I was right.”

Since the two men were indeed related, the possibility of kinship is very strong.

Lin Jie smiled and shook his fingers: “Don’t look at me like that, you two still look alike.”

Melissa’s eyes widened and her cheeks puffed up, like a puffer fish under attack: “Who looks like him!”

Lin Jie applauded his increasingly precise eyesight. This kind of rebellious attitude, as well as the disgust in his expression, should be related to the relationship between father and daughter.

Alas, he has seen this situation a lot.

Last time, it was the heartbroken lovelorn who was hurt by a scumbag. This time, it was the Qiao family who ran away from home in a fit of quarrel with their parents.

There are more and more uses for him as a life mentor.

Melissa had already regretted it at this time.

She already felt that it was not her father who made a mistake, but her own judgment and curiosity led her to a not-so-good situation… Of course, it was not a dangerous situation.

Rather, since the other party can instantly know the relationship between her and Joseph, there is a high possibility that they will sue…

Sure enough, you can’t break into a level I area, even if it’s “friendly”.

But the only thing to be thankful for is that the “friendly” evaluation in the file is indeed correct.

Lin Jie then stretched out his second finger and asked, “Then the second question, why did you ask me to wrestle my wrist?”

In fact, if it was just a regular customer asking for help in general, he would definitely not be so inquisitive.

But there was a young female new guest in front of her, and the request was physical contact.

For the sake of his reputation and innocence, he had to be a little cautious.

Don’t think that only women will be harassed. Boys should remember to protect themselves when they are outside!

Moreover, a deep understanding of the other party’s motivation for doing strange things is also helpful for psychological counseling and chicken soup indoctrination.

Melissa immediately sat upright, with straight eyes: “Joseph said, if you feel uncomfortable because of something or someone, but you can’t do it because of restrictions or because of face, then find someone to break your arm.”

“?”

Lin Jie made a question mark and asked suspiciously, “Why is it an arm wrestling?”

Wait, so the reason for Melissa’s discomfort should be the conflict with Joseph.

And the one who acts as a punching bag… is he?

Ah Xi, he retracted his preface, this is a brat.

Melissa looked stern: “It’s best to find the person involved, so that you can appreciate his painful, distorted, outraged but helpless expression.”

“If the other party refuses such a game-like activity, he will appear timid. Even if he refuses, he can force it to start. If he is so angry that he attacks me in the end, then I have a reason to beat him up.”

“??????”

Lin Jie feels that he has many question marks.

He deeply doubts Joseph’s level of education as a father.

Sure enough, one shouldn’t expect a retired soldier with ptsd to have any parenting experience, right?

“Okay, okay, how to compare.”

Lin Jie felt a headache.

But since it’s just for venting and satisfying her, it’s over. Such a little girl with slender arms and legs probably doesn’t have much strength.

Although he said so in his mouth, he must have found a friend as a partner in the past, let her let her vent benignly.

However, this kind of bear child thinking must be corrected.

“Two out of three games.”

Melissa said with a cautious expression, and then thought in her heart that although the other party didn’t seem as ordinary as imagined, she should look like a scholar or a wizard.

This level I should be in terms of ether, and the physical body is definitely not that strong.

The two sat firmly on both sides of the counter, holding hands, and the atmosphere was tense.

Judging from the state of feeling, it is indeed very loose, it is just the power of a normal adult male.

Melissa exhaled secretly, and said in a low voice:

“three.”

“two.”

“one.”

“start!”

“Snapped.”

The situation of the battle was resolved in an instant.

Melissa stared blankly at her arm that was firmly pressed against the counter.

how is this possible? ! ! !
