Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 695: Third prince

” But——” Lin Yan began, however, he was interrupted by several swift knocks on the door of their dining room, where stood Headmaster Yuan and Lord Fei, the two kindly looked at their family and said, ” Shall we come in?”      

Seeing that his master has come to his house, Lin Rui stood up from his seat and then looked at headmaster Yuan with a smile and politely bowed. ” Master, you came to see our family? Is everything all right?”      

They just separated this morning was there something that his master forgot to say to him? But in fact, it was Lin Rui who forgot that his headmaster was an old urchin along with being a foodie, the second he found out that Su Wan was indeed cooking with all the fresh ingredients that he has sent over to the Lin house, he immediately rushed to the Lin house to grab hold of a meal and while he was coming to the Lin house, he met with Lord Fei and thus the two of them came to the Lin house together.     

” Everything is all right, what can go wrong with me?” Headmaster Yuan answered as he cleared his throat and then swept a gaze at the dishes that were spread all over the table and nodded his head. ” I knew that you will come up with some fascinating ideas Wan Wan, I just did not know that you will be able to cook something up so quickly, good thing that I came to see the progress.”      

What he didn’t tell anyone was that he has actually sent one of his guards to keep an eye on the kitchen of the Lin family and the guard though he found it annoying there was nothing he could say either after all who made headmaster Yuan the father of the current right prime minister? He had to suck it up and keep an eye on the kitchen of the Lin family, the guards who were left behind by the Shen family knew just how weird headmaster Yuan could be so they left the guard alone feeling sympathetic towards him.      

” I heard from my nephew that he has sent some interesting rewards to you as well,” Lord Fei walked inside the dining hall and then carefully skimmed his gaze on the table before he sighed in awe. ” I was worried that my nephew might have made you uncomfortable Wan Wan when you are already having enough trouble that is why I came to see if everything was all right but looks like I was worried for nothing, you clearly knew what you were doing weren’t you?”     

Su Wan nodded her head as she looked at Lord Fei and headmaster Yuan before smiling lightly, ” God grandfather, headmaster Yuan, it’s a great thing that you are here, these rewards that were handed by the Emperor are really great, why don’t you come and have a bite?”      

” Pfft———”a burst of unfamiliar laughter echoed behind Lord Fei causing Su Wan to raise her head and look at the figure who has followed Lord Fei inside the dining hall. ” If his majesty finds out that someone has called his gifts interesting I wonder how he will respond?”     

The stranger who walked in seemed to be in his early twenties and there was a frivolous touch to his smile as he looked at her, the dazzling pair of eyes swept through the dishes on the table cheekily but she could sense that the man was a lot smarter than he was letting on, with his smile he looked like a teasing, bright flower that fluttered over the top of the mountain daring others to pick it up but remained untouchable till the end.      

He looked stunning but Su Wan could see that he was not just a pretty face!     

” Ah, I am sorry I didn’t see you before ——- how should I call you sir?” Su Wan was a bit stunned, she was so occupied by Lord Fei and headmaster Yuan that she didn’t even see this man who seemed to be more handsome than many idols she has seen on the television.      

Lin Jing and the others also noticed Su Wan’s gaze which was full of admiration for the handsome man who just walked in like a bunch of porcupines they raised their sharp needles as they all turned to look at the man but the second their gaze fell on the man’s figure they didn’t know what to say anymore.      

The man looked too dashing and important for them to treat him lightly.     

Lin Rui on the other hand simply had no idea about how to tell his family that the frivolous young man who was standing behind Lord Fei was the third prince, though he didn’t see the Emperor, he did see the third prince who was simply too reckless and bored out of his mind. When he told him that he wanted to travel incognito to the town to see his uncle, Lin Rui didn’t think much of it after all the third prince was only going to see his uncle what can he do about it? It wasn’t as if he could have stopped him right?      

However, if the third prince have stayed with Lord Fei then he would have nothing to say about him but now that he came to visit his house, Lin Rui really didn’t know what to say about this third prince.     

Before he could say anything, the third prince smiled gently and calmly looked at Su Wan before saying, ” You can call me brother Fan, sister Wan… I heard from my maternal uncle that you are his adopted god-granddaughter, so calling me brother would suffice.”      

Maternal Uncle? So this was the son of Lord Fei’s sister? Su Wan didn’t know much about the imperial family but she did know that the previous emperor had a brother and two sisters, one was married off as a chess piece in a peace treaty while the latter decided to become a general in the imperial palace, worried that she will too be sent away by her brother, Su Wan has, of course, heard about the sisters of Lord Fei and even though he hardly mentioned his sister, Su Wan knew that Lord Fei missed his sister who was in the cold north a lot, so this nephew of his was general Fei’s son?
