Chapter 260 - [Bonus ]
Lin Jing felt like Su Wan had punched him in the guts , he felt as if all the air in his lungs left him in a whoosh . It didn't matter it was his own fault , and her anger was completely justified . In fact, he wasn't even surprised but it didn't mean that it didn't hurt like hell .
" I can't trust you to protect me , and I don't believe that you will protect me when you need to. Today it was your sister , tomorrow it will be your aunt , and next day maybe your grandmother - Just because I pretend that it doesn't matter to me , doesn't mean that I don't feel angry and upset when you all don't stand up for me !"
Something about the way she had said those words made Lin Jing and the others narrow their eyes . They could more or less understand that this wasn't just about what happened . Her husbands not standing up for her was a big deal for her , instead it wouldn't be wrong to say that there was a story behind this . Maybe she was afraid of getting abandoned or betrayed , but that was something they will bother about later on , Lin Yan moved closed to Su Wan and cupped her chin " I more or less understand what happened and I can assure you that this will never happen again "
When they were inside the kitchen Lin Yan and the others heard about what their eldest brother and Su Wan was quarrelling about to think that Lin Yi actually brought He Rong with her and made such snide remarks about their wife after doing such a thing as abandoning her own younger brother !
How dare she !
Su Wan snickered and slapped Lin Yan 's hand aside " don't act like you are better than him , you all clearly knew what kind of person your second sister is but instead of staying with me and protecting me , you walked away from me . Why ? Did you think that I will be fine no matter what bullshit your sister sprouted ? Or did you think that even she condemns me , I will still be able to smile and act like nothing happen just like I always do ? Lin Yan , I'm not a fucking iron doll ! I'm a human , a human-made of flesh and blood , there is a limit to I can withstand with your and your family's bullshit . Your sister is just like this kind of person , is not an excuse to the bullshit you made me go through ! My pride is being questioned here ! If my pride is being hurt than it's not I who failed , its not my background that's questionable , it's you ! " jabbing her forefinger in Lin Yan's chest , Su Wan gritted out "it's your fault ! If you cannot protect me and safeguard my esteem then it is not a matter of embarrassment for me , it's embarrassing for you as my husbands !"
Lin Yan couldn't say a thing that might stop the tears that were falling down Su Wan 's eyes now . She was right , if someone questioned her background and deemed her as a lowly purchased slave despite them being in the house , it wasn't a shameful thing for her but it was embarrassing on their part . Because when they married Su Wan , she was theirs to protect from the day they brought her here with them .
Lin Yu watched the tears that were trickling down Su Wan 's eyes and felt as if her heart was being squeezed by an ice cold hand . He wanted to hold her in his arms and coax her but Su Wan clearly said that - that she didn't trust them anymore . If he touched her now , then the last thing she would feel was comfort from his touch , so far he has never respected her wishes and did whatever he wanted to do . He took her love and trust for granted , took her for granted because she was always smiling . Because she stood in front of him like an iron wall , he completely forgot that no matter how strong a person was - they needed compassion and support as well . He was such a - Lin Yu didn't even have words to say for his actions , but no matter what this time he will make her trust , him again .
Forcing the anger that was bubbling inside him , Lin Yu limped forward and held his hands in a placatory gesture " Wan Wan is right brother , apologising to her is not the right thing to do now . Since her face was slapped by second sister , the right thing to do now is to slap her face back . Second sister came to our house and degraded our wife , by doing so she not only embarrassed our Wan Wan , she also humiliated us , Wan Wan's husbands . I think that instead of empty apology we should avenge our wife for being wronged , no matter who it is , Wan Wan is our wife who sleeps next to us and obviously she is the closest person to us . Giving an outsider a chance to condemn her , we failed as Su Wan's husbands . So elder brother , second brother stop apologising and let's take some actions "
Su Wan blinked the tears away and looked at Lin Yu , she was startled to see his expression which was devoid of any warmth as he finished speaking those words . Though she was upset , she didn't want Lin Yu to hurt his sister because of her " You don't have to , the milk has already spilled there-"
" It doesn't matter if the milk is spilled or not " sneered Lin Chen as he rolled his sleeves and picking up a thick stick that was resting against the wall of the Kitchen " Second sister made you cry , so as your husbands it's our duty to make her cry in return and let her pay the interest for hurting you . It's nothing personal "
' nothing personal ? Can you say those without looking so murderous ?' Now Su Wan who was feeling that she was wrong couldn't help but feel whether or not wrong she overreacted , she wanted her husbands to stand up for her but she wanted them to stand up for her without any bloodshed .
" Ah Chen -"
" Wan Wan " before Su Wan could say anything Lin Rui stepped forward and held her hand , his expression was full of concern and grievance as if he was suffering just as much as her but when he spoke up , his voice was surprisingly cold . It made her chill to the bones " Wan Wan , I know that you won't be able to forgive us because we hurt you but don't worry we will definitely regain your trust in us . You can punish us as much as you want but don't worry about this matter anymore because from now on , anyone who tries to hurt you " Lin Rui's always smilingly eyes turned grim as a chilling intent flashed in them "we will kill them . If my brothers can't do it , I will do it , after all once I become an official it won't be too much of a trouble to clear someone's identity of the face of the earth . As for the rest don't worry about it , we will take it slow once again , but don't forget that you are ours , so stop thinking about running away from us okay?"
Is this really you Ah Rui ? When did you become such a villain ? Why didn't she know of it ?
Horrified Su Wan turned to look at Lin Yan , only he alone could stop these three who have lost their mind now .
Lin Yan looked at her , and Su Wan tried her best to transmit her meaning to him . She was angry but she wasn't going to run away , this was her house that she bought with her own money why will she run away ?
"Oh I got it " said Lin Yan when his gaze stopped to look at her face .
Su Wan heart that was first filled with anger than worry and anxiety finally eased , finally someone got it . There was no need to get physical if they wanted to avenge her just scolding would be enough -
" Ah Chen that stick you are holding is too thin , get a thicker one . Our sister's skin is too thick I'm afraid this stick won't work on her !"
' the stick was too thin ? '
