0.3% Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband / Chapter 5: She Will Get Married Twice

章節 5: She Will Get Married Twice

Elder Lu's younger son, Lu Chen, was a polite person. He was an obedient son  and brother, but his wife was quite  mischievous. 

Initially, they lived in their ancestral town where Lu Chen was supporting his brother by handling business. A few years ago they moved the whole family to the city as elder Lu missed his younger son and grandchildren.

With elder Lu angry, the temperature in the room seemed to drop. Zhao Shuang tried to calm her husband. 

Su Hui sat there with her head down. She didn't dare to look at elder Lu as her sons were at fault.

Lu Chen gave his wife a displeased look, as he was quite upset with his wife for saying inappropriate things in front of his father. He knew what was going on in her mind, but he couldn't do anything to stop her; she never listened.

After a few minutes of silence, Ning Jiahui asked her husband Lu Jinhai, "What about your best friend, Jiang Peizhi and his family? Are they coming or not?"

Lu Jinhai offered his wife a smile as if saying, 'thank you' for breaking the ice.

"Yes, dear. Jiang Peizhi is coming along with his family. It delighted him to hear about the event  and he is eager to meet everyone. He has already arrived in China with his wife and will attend the celebration." 

Lu Jinhai was happy as he would see his friend and his family after a long time. With this, the atmosphere in the room became normal.

"Brother, how are their kids. It's been eight years since I saw them. Both of them must have grown up a lot, by now," asked Lu Chen.

Lu Jinhai nodded, "Both of them took after their parents and Jiang Peizhi told that both his kids will stay in China from now on."

When the elder Lu heard about the Jiang family, his anger subsided, and he gave attention to the discussion. When they mentioned Jiang Peizhi's kids, he said, "I missed Jiang Yuyan. It's been a while since I saw that child. She must have become a wonderful lady like her mother."

Elder Lu recalled the memories of the past when all the kids used to play together in the Lu mansion. Those were the blissful moments of his life and a smile painted on his lips, remembering it again.

-------

At the same time in Jiang residence.

After finishing breakfast, Jiang Peizhi, the man of the house, was reading a newspaper, and his wife Mo Ruolan was instructing the servants about how the rooms would be set up.

After coming back to China, both husband and wife were busy decorating their new home. Finishing her work, Mo Ruolan went to the living room and sat beside her husband, Jiang Peizhi.

Mo Ruolan looked tired as she said, "The kids will arrive in China in two days. I hope I'll be able to complete the decorations before they arrive. I want them to be comfortable in this house."

"Don't worry. Everything will be done in the given  time." Comforting her, Jiang Peizhi put the newspaper aside and looked at his wife to ask, "Why did you insist on calling Jiang Yuyan and Jiang Yang back to China, suddenly? Why did you want them to work and study here in China?"

This sudden barrage of questions startled the Mo Ruolan.

Collecting herself, she replied, "I-It's…nothing! I just thought it was time for them to come back to their home country as I don't want them to spend their lives in a foreign land. It would be better for them to get familiar with everything here and adjust themselves accordingly. Anyhow, Jiang Yang was coming back to China to stay here forever, and I don't want Jiang Yuyan to stay there alone."

Jiang Peizhi smiled, seeing how his wife spurted out everything in one breath and caressed her hands to calm her down.

"Dear, I want to know the real reason. It has been twenty-six years since we are married. I know you very well. You never did  anything without reason. Whatever it is, just tell me."

As he insisted, clearing her throat, Mo Ruolan replied hesitantly, "Two years back, when I came to China for my friend's daughter's wedding; I went to the temple with one of my friends. She was going to meet Master Si Xia to show her son's birth card, so I too did the same and showed him our kids' birth cards. Everything about Jiang Yang was fine but—"

There was a long pause after her last sentences. Jiang Peizhi couldn't help but ask her," Is there something about Jiang Yuyan?"

Mo Ruolan nodded lightly, "I know you don't believe in these things, and neither do I, but you know how the heart of mother works."

"I know, and I'll try to understand your reasoning. So, tell me now," Jiang Peizhi assured her.

"When I showed Master Si Xia our daughter's birth card, he said, her life is complicated."

She stopped and Jiang Peizhi asked, "As In?"

"When she will turn twenty, her life will take a huge turn. It will affect her greatly, that it can either make her or break her. Her life will depend solely on her decisions. Her happiness and sadness are in her own hands, and nobody can meddle or help her. Her stars show that she would be a powerful and renowned person in the business world. And..."

She trailed off while Jiang Peizhi was ready to hear each word attentively.

"And what?" he asked.

"Master said, she is a moon, and there are two suns around her."

Jiang Peizhi couldn't get it. "What does this mean?" he asked, confused.

Mo Ruolan looked at him carrying worried expressions and replied, "She might get married twice."


章節 6: So Rude! Left Without Giving An Apology

Jiang Peizhi laughed heartily. "That's good then. She will get the love of two people. Nowadays, no one spends their life with a single person and it's common to get married twice."

Getting annoyed with his laughter and feeling displeased with his comments, Mo Ruolan gave him a narrowed eyes look.

Though, Jiang Peizhi brushed it off with laughter, there was a sign of worry in his eyes which he tried to hide behind the laughter.  After all, he was Jiang Yuyan's father, and it was obvious for him to feel concerned about his daughter, but he didn't want to worry his wife further.

Jiang Peizhi thought about something and asked his wife, "Wait-wait. Master said that she would be a renowned person in the business world  in the future. Is that why you are insisting on her to study business management?"Mo Ruolan nodded. "Well, you can say that." Pausing for a while she explained, "It's not bad to have extra knowledge."

She looked at her husband for approval, but it happened otherwise.

"You can't do this to her. You know she has a different dream. After what she has been through, we have already decided to  let her live the way she wants."

"I know!"

"Then?"

"I am not stopping her from doing what she wants to do. Even in the past, I have done nothing of the sort, but this time it's different. I want her to complete business management, and after that, she is free to do what she wants to do with her life."

Mo Ruolan said firmly, showing that she wouldn't change her decision. "Also, because of what happened in the past, I wish for her to live a better life ahead," she continued.

Jiang Peizhi gave up in front of her as he somewhere trusted his wife's decision.

"Okay! As you wish, dear." He gave her a resigned smile and commented.

"No one can avoid what's written in their destiny, so what is the use of feeling worried? This is between you and her; I will not meddle in your business. I will just be a bystander."

Mo Ruolan smiled, "Good!"

The discussion ended right there.

"Have you prepared everything for the wedding anniversary?" Asked Jiang Peizhi when he saw the relief on his wife's face.

"Yes, the gift is ready, too," she replied.

"My dear wife, always ready for everything. What would I have done without you?"

Giving out a sigh, Mo Ruolan said in a sarcastic voice, "Done with your flattery? When you meet your friend Lu Jinhai, I will wait and see if you still need me."

"Wifey, they say 'sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.'"

Mo Ruolan frowned. "Haven't you heard the saying? 'You should not piss off your wife when she has her menopause.'"

Jiang Peizhi coughed. He said nothing as he really didn't intend to anger her, and Mo Ruolan left the room to go to the kitchen.

Jiang Peizhi was happy at the thought that  he would meet his best friend soon.

Next evening, New York Airport.

A young man and woman briskly walked inside the crowded airport to their terminal. The young man was carrying a backpack on his shoulder, a tablet in one hand, and the plane tickets in the other. He was wearing a grey t-shirt and black jeans with sneakers.

The woman was carrying a cute, girlish white backpack on her shoulder with a stuffed pink bunny hanging on one side and a mug of coffee in her hands. She was wearing a pink top, blue jeans, and a pair of cute pink booties.

"Yuyan, let's hurry  up. At this rate, we will miss our flight." The man looked annoyed.

"Then let's miss it, brother Yang. I don't want to go, anyway. If it were not the wedding anniversary of grandfather and grandmother Lu, I would have done my best to avoid this trip to China," said the young woman called Yuyan, as she sipped on her coffee.

"C'mon, little sis, you know you can't avoid this, so just be fast. Actually, we need to run now."

The young man called Yang held Yuyan's hand and dragged her along with him as he ran towards the terminal.

At some distance away from them, from the opposite direction, a pair of two men was stepping faster towards the same terminus.

"Boss, slow down. We will be there on time," the man following one handsome man in front of him said, trying to catch his breath.

The handsome man looked at him and frowned, making the other gulp his protest and follow silently.

He was wearing a stylish business suit, with a white shirt inside it, looking so handsome that it was quite  impossible for the people around not to notice such a royal man. He walked briskly, making a way through the crowd, garnering curious looks from the males and females that surrounded him.

At some distance, the handsome man in the business suit collided with the young woman called Yuyan as they were heading towards the same terminal from opposite directions. The coffee in her hand spilled onto his suit.

The man frowned as he looked at his stained shirt, his irritation clear on his face. He moved his gaze from his shirt to the woman in front of him.

Because of the sudden collision, she had been rendered confused, too. Their eyes met. The man was over six feet, compared to the short woman; she barely reached his chin.

When the man looked at Yuyan's face, he froze on the spot  and his anger dissipated. Her face looked attractive, even though she was clearly confused.

His sight took a quick glimpse of her face, beautiful deep brown starry eyes, baby-soft radiant skin, her rosy pink lips parted away because of shock, and finally, the tiny pointed nose and those furrowed lines on her forehead clearly  showed she would burst in anger.

She looked down at the coffee mug in her hand, and her expression turned angrier. Looking back at him she said, "Do you have your eyes at the back of your head?" The man didn't reply and just kept staring at her.

The man standing behind the handsome man spoke up, "Miss, it was not my boss's fault alone, and…" before he could finish, the handsome young man cut him off.

"Let's go. We are getting late, assistant Xiao Min." With that, they strode towards the terminal.

The young woman frowned as she looked at his retreating  back. "So rude! Left without an apology."

Turning her sight to look at the spilled coffee mug, she commented in a sad voice, "Rest in peace, my tasty coffee."

These two were Jiang Peizhi and Mo Ruolan's Children, the son- Jiang Yang and the daughter- Jiang Yuyan.
