Chapter 489
Lin Lan sighed, rolled up her sleeves and said boldly, “Then there’s no other choice but to smash the lock. Someone bring me a sharp and heavy rock!”
Maisui and Xiaowang hurried to the corner to start looking for some rubble left from when they were building the house.
It’s just that the stones were frozen on the ground at this moment and they couldn’t take them off at all. Xiaowang was so anxious that he groaned before Maisui finally brought over a small piece.
Lin Lan took it, “Get out of the way, I’ll do it!”
She was fiddling with the lock with one hand and was about to smash the rock when she raised it, but someone took the stone away.
She looked back at Dawang taking the rock away, “What’s the matter?”
Erwang, “Mother, I think you should let Eldest Brother do it.”

Lin Lan looked at it and it was true that the rock was not big enough. The door probably wouldn’t budge at all with her strength alone unless she were to use an axe.
But she couldn’t bear to break the door.
She thought that Dawang was stronger than she was, so he could likely smash it. Hence, she reminded him, “Be careful with the door, your father’s hand got caught in between the ledges when he installed the door. It was tough work, so try to be gentle with it.”
Dawang resisted the intensifying urge to roll his eyes and he managed not to. He threw the stone in his hand to the base of the wall before he took out a small roll of thin wire from his pocket under Lin Lan’s surprised gaze.
Lin Lan, “…you, what are you doing?”
But Dawang didn’t speak as he squatted down in front of the door, poking the thin wire into the keyhole.
Everyone, “!!!”
Lin Lan was in a worse state, Good Lord, did my son do anything else besides gambling? Probably not, right?
Looking at his coquettish eyes, professional posture, skillful movements yet cold and calm expression, it’s as if he had done this countless times.
Did he break into factories before?
Lin Lan felt a little cold. If Han Qingsong knew about it, it would be over.
The younger siblings gathered around Dawang, poking their heads out. They clasped their hands together, silently watching and cheering.
They held their breath for fear of disturbing Dawang.
At this time, the lock opened with a ‘click’.
The children cheered, “Eldest Brother is amazing!”

He looked back at Lin Lan, who was standing still with a precarious and pale face. It was as if she saw Liu Chunfang in front of her.
“Come in?” he said.
Lin Lan’s lips trembled, “Eldest Brother D-Da, Dawang…”
Dawang frowned thickly and grabbed the things in her hand, “I never stole anything!!”
Lin Lan was revived in an instant, tugged her bag back from him before she raised her head and gave him a squinting look, “Tsk~~ you wouldn’t dare!”
Into the house she went.
Dawang, “…”
Sanwang looked back at Dawang, who was walking out, and shouted, “Eldest Brother, where are you going?”
Dawang took two steps silently but turned back, refusing to admit that he was stunned by his mother’s expression.
In order to comfort the children who were frozen into dogs, Lin Lan smiled and said, “I’ll make hand-rolled noodles at noon and top them with chives and eggs.”
“I love food the most!” Sanwang immediately jumped up and offered to help with the cooking.
