Chapter 93: Everyone Understands (3)
Married to the Protagonist
To which Yan Cheng responded by lifting his brows and glancing back. It was true that he didnât understand. But even so, he didnât plan on arguing with her.
âSince weâre here, you should buy a bouquet of flowers for your mother too.â She smiled at her, saying this half-jokingly. âWe canât let your mother think that youâre like spilt water after you married your wife.â
Yan Cheng looked down at the fruit basket in his hands and said in a proper manner, âI canât steal my fatherâs spotlight. Heâs going to scold me again.â
Chen Jinyao looked at him pitifully like she was looking at a miserable and weak little animal. After a few seconds, she burst into laughter.
Mother Yan looked Yan Cheng up and down. After noticing that he was being extra flashy today, she looked at him in disdain.
But in front of her daughter-in-law, she couldnât say much. She glared harshly at her son and then pulled Chen Jinyao enthusiastically into the home.
Yan Cheng was confused as to why he got glared at.
He looked down and shrugged, snorting as he followed behind the two.
Mother Yan started off with the usual words.
Mother Yan: âYaoyao, if Little Six bullies you, tell mother.â
Yan Cheng exclaimed expressionlessly, âMother, youâve said this countless times.â
Since when do mothers mock their sons like that?
âIâve been saying this to remind you too.â Mother Yan hmphed.
Chen Jinyao was stuck in the middle. She said helplessly, âMother, donât worry. Heâs been very good.â
Yan Cheng was stunned.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then, his heart was overwhelmed by happiness. Her confession filled his sense of vanity. He felt as if he was ascending to heaven. He reluctantly maintained his calmness. He descended to earth but he still felt like he was in the air. He proudly whistled and smiled, wanting to pull Chen Jinyao to his side and hug her. âListen, listen carefully. Your son is very good and treats your daughter-in-law very good too. Donât worry for no reason.â
Ah, his wifey knows how to sweet-talk!
Chen Jinyao was speechless.
Mother Yan laughed. âStop acting so proud. Yaoyao, donât always give in to him. Once you do, heâd act very arrogant.â
Aunt Zhao was still bustling in the kitchen. She wanted to wait for the guests to come before cooking some dishes.
There was still a while before dinner started.
Mother Yan pulled Chen Jinyao to the sofa. âI just pampered him too much. Now, he refuses to listen to anyone. Even after he got married, he still acts immature.â
Chen Jinyao actually didnât stand on Yan Chengâs side this time. She closed her eyes and thought about it momentarily before nodding. âThatâs true.â
Hearing this, Yan Cheng knitted his brows. The smile on his face faded a bit, and he pursed his lips.
Tch.
âCompared to being mature, I think being responsible is more important.â After a while, he cleverly found a way out of the situation.
Then, he lifted his chin and asked the easily swayed Chen Jinyao, âRight?â
Chen Jinyao purposely became silent and revealed a questioning expression.
He knew that she was teasing him but he still clenched his teeth silently.
The light shone brightly in the living room and brightened the warm laughter.
Mother Yan could exclaim her thoughts in front of her son, but she didnât know why she became hesitant when she was in front of her daughter-in-law. She felt somewhat embarrassed.
Especially seeing Chen Jinyaoâs eyes. Mother Yan was influenced by TV shows and she felt like she was an evil mother-in-law.
She pursed her lips and gave Yan Cheng a look. Who knew that Yan Cheng would act like he didnât see in order to get revenge on her. She really raised this brat for no reason.
Chen Jinyao saw through Mother Yanâs hesitation.
She smiled and held in her laughter. She was about to talk, wanting to tell Mother Yan about their plan. That way, she would feel comforted and didnât need to feel conflicted. Who knew that before she could say anything, she was interrupted by her phoneâs ringtone.
Chen Jinyao grabbed her phone from her bag, a bit shocked once she saw the caller.
At this time, Yan Cheng lazily looked up and carelessly asked, âWho is it?â
Chen Jinyao stood up and shook her phone. âMy college classmate.â
