Chapter 452 - A Picture Of Obedience
Shen Zizhen was a simple man - the people he liked can always ask him for the world and he would work his hardest to get them the exact thing that they wanted, if not a beauty like Huo Xinyue wouldn't be so entranced with him. Shen Zizhen was straightforward, if he liked someone he would listen to everything they say but if he didn't like someone he would listen to them when he was in the mood or something. As for people whom he hated, he wouldn't even admit their existence unless they do something to piss him off, Su Bai was in this category obviously and as for Su Wan, she was the apple of his eyes so it was given he would listen to her.
Not only did he put her down as gently as he could, he even gave her a bright smile that was as cute as that of a toddler and with his tiny build and baby face he nearly got away with it too. Even Su Wan who would usually get angry at such a blatant manhandling of her couldn't bring himself to get angry at all, She could only look at the man in front of her with a confused expression and muttered " Alright, just don't do it again" how was she supposed to get angry at her second uncle when he was a picture of cuteness? Even those cats behind him were giving a kitty face with those starry eyes that made her heart melt.
Shen Junxi who had finally caught up to the two of them, didn't know whether he should laugh or cry when he saw that Su Wan was taken by that jerk of second brother's cuteness, he wanted to tell her not to be fooled by that second brother of his but he was afraid of the retaliation that his brother might plan, later on, so he swallowed his words back in his stomach and hurriedly went to stand beside Su Wan, afraid that Shen Zizhen would try to make another attempt of kidnapping Su Wan " Second brother, you must be tired right? why don't you come and sit down. You might not believe it but the second brat, I mean Lin Yan" he swiftly changed his way of calling the Lin brothers when Su Wan glanced at him disapprovingly " That boy cooks delicious meals bet you would like his cooking, so why don't you calm down and chat with me?"
Shen Zizhen, however, stared at his elder brother with a frown. Why was this elder brother of his so taken with those five brats, has he forgotten how Su Bai charmed their sister and later on betrayed her? If not for Shen Shui keeping mum all along he would have made Su Bai his cats' food but he found out too late and there was nothing he could do because that bastard had Su Wan's backing after successfully brainwashing her.
So, how could his brother trust these brothers so easily? Even Su Bai treated their sister like a princess when he was young and newly married her. Su Wan's marriage wasn't a year old yet his brother was this taken by those little brats? Unforgivable!
Shen Zizhen glared at his elder brother for being too much of a disappointment as he turned to look at Su Wan with a sad expression " Wan Wan, you know... I know it may be hard on you but I want to eat food personally cooked by you. I know I am asking too much, you can refuse if you don't want to but your second uncle wanted to eat your cooking first"
As if connected by telepathic connection, Huo Xinyue who came together with the rest of the Lin family and Madam Zhu, tilted her head and cupped her cheek " That's true, your second uncle was so excited to eat a meal cooked by you that he didn't even eat lunch and breakfast today, it's such a pity that you are hurt because of some negligent people"
Though Huo Xinyue said it like she was blaming Luo Xin, the culprit behind the kidnapping of Su Wan but Lin Jing and the others could feel that the underhanded remark was somewhat directed at them.
"It's okay, Second aunt. I am mostly healed anyway, it just that my husbands are too worried about me that they won't let me get off the bed" said Su Wan quickly placating Huo Xinyue and Shen Zizhen, she would always feel a bit guilty towards the Shen family, no matter how she tried to coax herself that what happened to the original Su Wan wasn't her fault but the thing was that every time the Shen family tried to get close to her or were extremely nice to her, Su Wan would feel a bit awkward..it was like she was taking away the affections meant for Su Wan. When it came to her husbands she was guilt-free because they were never Su Wan's but Shen Zizhen and Shen Junxi were Su Wan's family, to begin with.
Thus, every time the Shen Family was concerned, she would try her best to make up to them " I can still cook a little for you guys after all Second uncle and aunt travelled so far because you were worried about me right ?"
Shen Zizhen saw that his niece still had him in his heart and immediately waved his hand " I was just joking with you, why are you so serious? Let your second husband cook and you should take some rest as well" then he turned to look at Lin Jing and motioned him to come towards him.
Slightly, confused Lin Jing walked towards Shen Zizhen who snatched the basket in his hands and opened it with such incredible sipped that Lin Jing didn't even get any time to stop him - in a few seconds Shen Zizhen had thrown the wicker basket on the ground and the spitting ball of hell raiser was in his arms " Here you go, Wan Wan. This kitten is something that I prepared especially for you, I even trained him to look after you - see is he fitting to your taste"
As Shen Zizhen raised the manul cat in his arms and handed it to Su Wan. Lin Jing tried to intercept it but the ball of annoyance jumped past his extended hand and drove right in Su Wan's arms like a good child.
Lin Jing "…..." ?????
