Chapter 386 - I Won’t Detest You

Although Su Jin was very nervous, she thought that she would have to face this day sooner or later, so she might as well do it quickly. There was still a hint of shyness on her face as she pretended to be calm and put her arm around Xi Chenxiao’s shoulder and said nonchalantly,

“Isn’t there a Chinese saying, ‘marry a chicken, follow a chicken; marry a dog, follow a dog’? Since I’m married to you, even if your house is shabby, it doesn’t matter. I won’t detest you, so don’t worry, boss!”

A smile appeared on Xi Chenxiao’s cold face when he heard this. However, there was something wrong with her sentence. Was his house shabby? It shouldn’t be, right? He raised his hand and gently stroked Su Jin’s hair as he said,

“Okay, good girl.”

Su Jin was a little unhappy when she heard this. She was already an adult, so why was he still treating her like a child? After thinking for a moment, she pushed Xi Chenxiao’s hand away from her head unhappily and complained,

“I’m already an adult, and we’re married. Can’t I be a good wife?”

Moreover, calling her a good girl made them look nothing like a married couple. It was as if the devil had adopted her. She didn’t like this kind of estranged feeling so this matter had to be corrected.

Xi Chenxiao read Su Jin’s lips and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. This girl was getting fussy. She had really grown up. He used his hand to tug Su Jin’s messy hair behind her ear and said softly,

“Good wife.”

Su Jin’s blushed immediately. She felt as if she had eaten lots of cotton candy. Her heart felt sweet and extremely shy. Xi Tian was still in the car, but the devil said it out loud. She digressed shyly,

“Boss, you didn’t answer me just now. Are you hurt?”

Su Jin then looked at Xi Chenxiao worriedly. His clothes were full of blood stains. She did not know if it was someone else’s blood. If the devil was hurt, they had to go to the hospital quickly.

“Boss, if you’re hurt, just say it. We’ll go to the hospital immediately. I don’t want to be a widow at such a young age!”

Xi Chenxiao wanted to strangle this girl to death when he heard this. But when he saw Su Jin’s worried expression, a smile appeared on his face. He caressed Su Jin’s beautiful hair and replied playfully,

“Don’t worry. You’re as beautiful as springtime. How could I possibly bear to die?”

Su Jin’s face turned even redder. The devil had learned how to be glib with his words. However, he was praising her beauty, so she reluctantly let him off this time and forgave him.

After some time, Xi Tian had driven them to the Xi family’s old mansion. It was an old-fashioned manor with pavilions, creeks, and petite bridges. Everything was very charming and classical, making people wonder if they had returned to ancient times.

When Su Jin got out of the car and looked at the old mansion, she suddenly felt a little stage fright. The demon king’s manor was already very big, but this old mansion was even bigger and grander. They must be really wealthy!

Compared to the Xi family, the Su family was like a poor man meeting the richest man. There was no comparison. The Xi family was too scary. They were so rich that it made people afraid. This was the truly wealthy.

Xi Chenxiao saw the dazed Su Jin and smiled. Did this girl have to be so shocked? It was just a manor. He raised his hand and lightly knocked on Su Jin’s head as he said,

“Silly girl, why are you in a daze?”

Su Jin came back to her senses and felt extremely awkward. She had acted like she had never seen the world before. It was too embarrassing. No matter what, she was Madam Xi now and she shouldn’t behave like this. She replied awkwardly,

“No, I was just thinking, why does your family need such a big home?”

A flash of smile appeared in Xi Chenxiao’s eyes when he heard this. This silly girl... What was so strange about this? Many people have big homes, but maybe not as big as this. He held Su Jin’s hand and said as they walked inside,

“I don’t know why it’s so big either.”

Soon, he brought Su Jin into an antique living room and let her sit there. He wanted to wash up and change his clothes. After all, there were blood stains on his body. He said plainly,

“Wait for me here. I’ll go wash up and change my clothes. Then, I’ll take you to meet my grandmother.”
