Chapter 328 - Eldest Uncle
Lin Chen was startled by this sudden bomb that Shen Junxi dropped, all the steam that he had in his body, blew out with ' fssh'. He thought about what just happened and finally his brain that was muddled because of his anger , remembered what exactly Shen Junxi said when he knocked the door down. Once it clicked - Lin Chen smiled flatteringly as he dusted Shen Junxi's hands that were holding him and said " oh Uncle in law, would you like to come and have breakfast with us? We just started to eat"
Shen Junxi ".."
Where was the shame?
One question little brat, where exactly was your shame?
Didn't you just say you would teach this old man a lesson and now you invite this old man to have breakfast? Can't you be so shameless?
Lin Chen: for my wife, I'm willing to be a man without shame.
Shen Yunxi was speechless, he didn't know what to say but he didn't want to keep holding on to Lin Chen's collar and let him go " I already ate when I was coming here, and don't try to act chummy with me. I am not your uncle in law, don't try to get friendly with me, I am here for my niece, bring me to her, where did you hide her you brats"
" hi-hide, we didn't hide Wan Wan " Lin Yu who cursed his third brother for not using his brains in time of need indefinite times, limped forward and said with a sweet smile, now that it has come to this, he has to play his role of good boy " she is not f..feeling well, so she is resting in her room -"
"'Not feeling well? How is she not feeling well? You brats! You just wait, if anything happened to my niece, see how I set you all right" Then without even waiting for the Lin brothers to show him the way, Shen Junxi ran inside, as he shouted " Wan Wan, my dear niece where are you ?"
Lin Yan who knew how important it was to survive this hurdle, immediately ran after Shen Junxi to show him the way to Su Wan's room though Shen Junxi didn't show him a good face but he still followed after Lin Yan, whatever he will just withstand for now and after he sees his niece, he will snatch her back!
Father Lin exchanged a look with Mother Lin and then said with a little difficulty " it seems our laws, are a bit too doting ?"
Before Mother Lin could reply, Madam Zhu giggled in a very ladylike way and said " of course, Wan Wan is the only daughter in our family and she is also my sister in law's daughter upon whom my husband and his brothers doted the most, so you can take Wan Wan as our family's princess! She should have been treated like one as well but alas that bastard Su Bai-hoo" realising that her shrewd side was leaking, Madam Zhu inhaled a sharp breath and then exhaled before her expression calmed down a bit and her usually gentle face surfaced " well that man, played us a little though there is nothing to worry we settled the scores and that man will never bother us again. "
' why does her ' settled the score' sounds like they settled Su Bai once and for all?' thought the Lin family.
" Wan Wan is really my husband's turning point, he is not bad at heart, just a little too protective of his niece, we were busy in the capital and settling our business that's why we couldn't look for Wan Wan, but now that we are here -" then Madam Zhu stopped speaking and spoke without continuing, "I think I should look for Wan Wan "
Then with an elegant bow, she went after her husband who went inside the main building leaving a speechless crowd behind.
' we are here? For? What comes after that? What are you here for?' roared the Lin brothers, they all had the same feeling that these in-laws of theirs were not as easy to tackle as they thought they were.
Shen Junxi rushed inside the main building, his heart thudding against his chest as he walked behind Lin Yan. By instinct he knew where his niece was, it was as if his blood was calling him, he didn't even need Lin Yan to guide him when they reached Su Wan's room and Lin Yan opened the door to Su Wan's room.
Shen Junxi swallowed and immediately brushed his hair and dusted his clothes, trying to make himself look as nice as he could, he even hunched his shoulders to make himself look smaller. He still remembers how his niece burst into tears the last time he went to look for her, she called him terrifying because of his scars and ugly face, which looked mishappen because of his crooked nose and two missing teeth.
If he knew his niece would be scared of him, he would have never become a hooligan and worked in the bar in the town, it was all because of his stupidity that his niece was afraid of him. Who asked him to be so ugly? If he was just as good looking as his other brothers his niece would have never been scared of him.
This was the thing about family love, when angry, the members would always say foul and angry words to each other but when there was a chance of reconciliation, each side would be the first to admit their faults. Though Shen Junxi always blamed Su Wan for being foolish and a white-eyed wolf, when the time to meet her came he took all the blame on himself.
As soon as the door opened, a pale woman's face came into view, she had a pair of big almond eyes that looked like a starry sky, her small mouth was curved down because of the pain she was suffering but she still smiled at Shen Junxi.
Shen Junxi froze and his lips went shut.
Su Wan remained where she was, after thinking over and over, she finally remembered the owner of his voice. This was the original owner's eldest maternal uncle, Shen Junxi, who seemed to dote on the original Su Wan a lot. Though Su Wan was a little guilty of taking the warmth that should have belonged to the original owner, she knew that the truth was crueller. She couldn't tell Shen Junxi that his niece was dead when he has already lost his beloved sister , so she decided to play her part, she smiled and greeted with all the warmth and love she had in her heart because Shen Junxi had treated the original owner in the same way, but the man was too unfortunate, the Su family had brainwashed Su Wan and she was never kind to Shen Junxi.
Only at the time of her death, did she realise that her Uncle was the one who loved her the most.
"Eldest Uncle" called Su Wan and just as she said those words, she felt her head being squeezed as she was pulled in the most warmest embrace she has ever had.
In both of her two Lives.
