Chapter 222 Want to Marry My Sister
Before Lin Shu could say anything, Ji Wan leaned closer, one foot light and one foot heavy, and said to A Zhu:
"Why did you step on me, you idiot? And have you been at the Imperial Preceptor's residence these past few days? You haven't even come back to see me... uh... us, do you know how worried I was about you! You heartless bastard..."
"Hmph!" Azhu moved further behind Lin Shu, snorted softly, turned her face away and ignored Ji Wan. Instead, she pouted and complained to Lin Shu again, "Sister... she's bad!"
Ji Wan felt heartbroken and was about to say something when A Zhu ignored her.
Looking at A-Zhu's flawless, simple-minded expression, Lin Shu sighed inwardly and asked thoughtfully, "What brings you here today?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Wan and the others all turned their gazes toward A Zhu.
"Looking for my sister!" Azhu said, grinning foolishly at Lin Shu, a blush creeping onto her face.
Then he awkwardly tried to pull Lin Shu, and Lin Shu quickly shrank back, but because the two were very close, he still managed to grab her sleeve.
Seeing Lin Shu's dodge, A-Zhu's body trembled. Then, with a dejected expression, she lowered her eyes, swayed Lin Shu's clothes from side to side, and said aggrievedly, "Sister..."
Lin Shu tried to pull at her clothes, but couldn't, so she could only let the other person do as they pleased: "What do you want from me?"
"A-Zhu...A-Zhu wants to..." A-Zhu suddenly became hesitant, as if she had some difficulty speaking, which made Ji Wan, who was watching the fun, and Shen Lin and Ye Feng, who were watching the fun, anxious.
Ji Wan was the first to lose her temper, and asked in a loud voice, clearly displeased:
"Hey! What do you want with her? Just tell me! If she won't help you, I will! This is driving me crazy..."
Before Ji Wan could finish speaking, A Zhu, as if finally mustering her courage, blurted out even louder than her, "A Zhu wants to marry my sister!!!"
"Hey! You should have said so earlier! It's no big deal, leave it to me, I promise I'll get it done for you..."
Ji Wan patted his chest boldly and said, but halfway through his sentence, he seemed to realize something, turned around, and stared wide-eyed at A-Zhu and Lin Shu, saying incredulously:
"What did you say?"
"A-Zhu wants to marry my sister!" A-Zhu tilted her head and repeated again, her eyes fixed on Lin Shu's chin, blinking.
Lin Shu: "No."
Ji Wan: "No way!"
Lin Shu and Ji Wan's voices rang out simultaneously; the former was calm and composed, while the latter was filled with tension and urgency.
A-Zhu glared at Ji Wan with displeasure, then gave her a fierce look, baring her teeth. It was one thing for Lin Shu, the person directly involved, to refuse, but why was this unrelated person meddling in?
Shen Lin and Ye Feng looked at Ji Wan with pity!
A pang of sadness welled up in Ji Wan's heart, and she also felt extremely uncomfortable under their gazes. She then offered a hesitant explanation to Azhu:
"What I mean is, you're such a fool, you're not a good match for Lin Shu!"
Having said that, ignoring A-Zhu's murderous glare, she subtly glanced at Lin Shu out of the corner of her eye, lowered her voice, and, as if burying her head in the sand, spoke ill of Lin Shu to A-Zhu:
"Don't let Lin Shu's decent appearance fool you. She's actually cold and shrewd all the time, and you're so stupid. Don't do something foolish and end up getting beaten up without even knowing it!"
Lin Shu (speechless): "..." I can hear myself!
Although Shen Lin and Ye Feng felt that Ji Wan's words were a bit exaggerated, they thought it made sense upon closer examination. Although they had never seen or heard of Lin Shu beating her husband, that was probably because they hadn't encountered a fool!
"You're the stupid one!" A-Zhu puffed out her cheeks, angrily pointed at Ji Wan, and stomped her foot. She thought that if she hadn't been pretending to be stupid, she would have given all three of them a good beating, especially Ji Wan, who kept calling her stupid.
Ji Wan gave him a look that said, "You're stupid, I won't argue with you." Then, seeing that she couldn't get through to A Zhu, she turned her attention to Lin Shu:
"Lin Shu, you are my little brother's fiancée. I will keep a close eye on you for my little brother's sake!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Shu raised an eyebrow and looked at Ji Wan with a half-smile, her eyes full of teasing and mockery, as if she understood what Ji Wan was thinking.
Ji Wan coughed a few times guiltily, whistling, and quickly looked away with a darting gaze.
However, deep down she didn't want Azhu to marry Lin Shu. The thought of Azhu marrying Lin Shu made her heart ache.
She hoped that Azhu would pay more attention to her, so she used to tease Azhu with her words. Even if Azhu chased and hit her, she was still happy!
A longing was about to burst forth from her heart; she might have fallen for this silly little boy!
Azhu: "Sister..."
Ji Wan (subtly interrupting): "Lin Shu..."
"..."
For the next while, whenever A-Zhu tried to say something to Lin Shu, Ji Wan would quietly interrupt her.
"Stop." Lin Shu, annoyed by their noise, said irritably to A Zhu and Ji Wan respectively:
"I will not marry you."
"Don't worry, I won't marry him."
A hint of surprise flashed in Azhu's feigned ignorance, followed by tears and sadness welling up in her eyes.
Ji Wan was overjoyed and thought to herself: That's good!
Lin Shu rubbed her temples, about to dismiss them, when she heard A-Zhu, who was closest to her, softly utter a few words. Lin Shu narrowed her eyes, giving the other woman a dark look, before turning to Ji Wan and the others and saying:
"You all go out first, I have something to say to him."
Ji Wan looked Lin Shu up and down suspiciously, then waved her hand and put her arm around Lin Shu's shoulder: "Hey! What's there that we sisters can't hear? We're all sisters, aren't we..."
Seeing the unquestionable expression on Lin Shu's face, Shen Lin and Ye Feng quickly dragged Ji Wan out, thinking to themselves: Ji Wan is such a fool!
After everyone left, Chou Er, who was guarding outside, casually closed the door and turned around to meet Ji Wan's resentful expression.
Ji Wan paced back and forth with her hands behind her back, glaring at Chou Er with a resentful look, and muttered, "Why did you close the door? Humph! You have no sense at all!"
Ugly Two: "..." Who's really so clueless!
inside the house.
Lin Shu stared intently at A Zhu, and neither of them spoke first, leaving the room completely silent for a moment.
A few moments later, Azhu was almost drawn into her deep, dark eyes, and a compliment slipped out unconsciously: "What beautiful eyes."
Lin Shu withdrew her gaze and asked in a calm tone, "What did you mean by what you just said?"
After regaining her senses, Azhu immediately reverted to her silly self, tilting her head and asking Lin Shu in confusion, "What are you saying, sister?"
Lin Shu frowned, her tone somewhat serious:
"Stop pretending, A-Zhu. No, you should be called Young Master Zhu now!"
