Chapter 282: Not Me

~7 min read 1,363 words

Su Yu grew even more worried.

The last incident, Ye Ruotian probably doesn't know that it was Shǔi Shǒuhóng pulling the strings behind the scenes, right? If Ye Ruotian really ends up hating Xu Mo Bai, the feud between them will only grow, and that scoundrel Shǔi Shǒuhóng could take advantage of the situation—what to do? No, I have to help Sister Mo Bai explain!

While waiting for Xu Mo Yan and Su Xi's conversation to stop, Su Yu immediately asked Xu Mo Yan, "Brother, did sister say she wants you to be more ambitious and have a little niece!"

Xu Mo Yan was a bit broken, "How did she even come to you!"

Since his cousin and older brother had a child, Xu Mo Bai kept nagging him, saying that if she were a younger brother, he would have already shown her why the flower turned so red!

"She is the only one in the whole family who is so persistent; why doesn't she just have a child herself?!"

"But sister hasn't found a handsome older brother! Sister says that a baby born from an ugly older brother would also be ugly!"

Xu Mo Yan wanted to shout, "Is it my fault that the wife I found is pretty?"

Xu Mo Yan turned his head toward Ye Ruotian, "Did Xu Mo Bai come to disturb you? She just loves to nag; whether you have a boy, a girl, or even no child, the family likes it! Once she gives up, she'll have a child on her own!"

Ye Ruotian shook her head, "No."

"Really not? Don't cover for her. She's very carefree; you have to refuse her outright, otherwise she'll think you agreed."

Xu Mo Bai is smart, but doesn't like to think; she hates convoluted things, wanting to say "no" in her heart while shouting the opposite.

"She just thinks my expression is a bit strange."

Xu Mo Yan nodded, "Exactly, that's a sign. Remember, never agree to her; she's too naggy. Refuse her outright, she won't get angry! If you deal with her straightforwardly, she'll actually like you more!"

"Alright!"

Ye Ruotian wrote it down seriously. Thinking back to Su Yu's comment that Xu Mo Bai especially liked her, she realized the younger sister‑in‑law liked little girls, not that she disliked her as a sister‑in‑law! Ye Ruotian felt a bit embarrassed for having misunderstood Xu Mo Bai.

"Sister is wonderful, but she truly dislikes people who are two‑faced; she doesn't like others lying to her!"

Ye Ruotian herself also doesn't like others lying to her.

"Yes, yes, yes, anyway you all think she's perfect everywhere!"

Xu Mo Yan felt some resentment; his filter for his younger sister Xu Mo Bai had shattered after years of her nagging!

"Hehe, brother is also great! He's a super great brother!"

Xu Mo Yan patted Su Yu's head, "Not bad, I didn't waste caring for you!"

After saying that, Xu Mo Yan gave a piece of wood to Su Yu.

"This is a piece of wood someone gave me; I heard you've been playing with wood lately, so I give it to you."

"Thank you, brother!"

Su Yu happily held the wood and placed it solemnly aside. Ye Ruotian watched the scene and was also happy. Xu Mo Yan got along really well with Su Yu; if they ever had a child, he would make a good father.

Ye Ruotian wouldn't naively assume she won't need to have children later. Even if her parents‑in‑law didn't press, her own parents wouldn't consent. Now that the Ye family's connections are with Xu Mo Yan, any future child would have to be his.

Xu Mo Yan and Ye Ruotian stayed a while longer, then took a bunch of fruit to visit the next household.

Ye Ruotian sat in the car, looked back at the pile of boxes, and sighed, "The younger sister's family is really generous!"

If the Ye family had that confidence, she wouldn't need to go on blind dates. Fortunately, her eventual Marriage Alliance Target is a good person.

Xu Mo Yan at that moment had a dark face, his fist clenched.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Mo Yan said nothing and handed his phone to Ye Ruotian.

Su Xi: From the moment we met, we felt like old friends; should the day come when your relationship with your younger sibling is schemed against, there's something I must tell you. At the beginning of your acquaintance with your younger sibling, the sibling's situation was orchestrated by someone with ulterior motives.

Su Xi: Video. MP4

Ye Ruotian trembled as she clicked open the video.

"Shui Ge, how did you marry a little jade?"

"A wife must be suitable for the household!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder Shui Ge, who holds two great beauties, speaks so boldly!"

…

What was said later, Ye Ruotian could no longer hear! She couldn't imagine what would happen if this video spread, or was played at their wedding!

Just because she was played by a scumbag, her reputation is ruined!

Xu Mo Yan looked at Ye Ruotian seriously, "Ruo Ruo, I didn't deliberately appear there to create a hero‑saving‑beauty scene; you have to believe me!"

"Ah… ah?"

"I really happened to be there by accident; I wasn't scheming against you!"

Ye Ruotian, bewildered, watched her goofy fiancé call the people they were about to visit to apologize, then have the driver take them home.

Ye Ruotian's mood was chaotic!

She didn't know how to explain this to her fiancé! She felt like a blank sheet of paper; having been stained with ash, even if she shakes it clean, everyone has seen it and knows she can't refute it, and she'll be forced to have others help her recall that dusty appearance!

Back at the Xu household, before she could say anything, Xu Mo Yan hurriedly scooped her up and took her inside.

Ye Ruotian saw her mother‑in‑law looking anxious; Xu Mo Bai was already calling for a family doctor.

"What's happening, huh? How are you taking care of people!"

Xu Mo Yan's mother was practically going insane! After finally managing to marry a good daughter‑in‑law, her adult son ended up hurting someone!

"Mom, that's not important! I—"

"I hit you, you little brat; Ruo Ruo's health not being well still not important?"

Xu Mo Yan was stunned, "Ruo Ruo, you don't feel well?"

"No, nothing!"

Xu Mo Bai, calmer, "Doctor, come in quickly, examine my sister‑in‑law!"

Before Ye Ruotian could refuse, the Xu family's Chinese doctor placed a pulse pillow.

Ye Ruotian had to put her hand on it.

The members of the Xu family held their breath, even Xu Mo Yan's sister‑in‑law hurried back, fearing that something might go wrong with this arranged sister‑in‑law!

She quite likes this well‑mannered sister‑in‑law.

It is said that not long ago, a favored young son in the circle insisted on marrying his true love; after bringing her home, because she clashed with the family atmosphere, he thought the family rejected and abused her, turning the household upside down!

After hearing that, she became especially afraid that her younger brother‑in‑law would also give her such a sister‑in‑law!

"She is worrying too much; the little girl is still very young and should relax a bit."

Those present first let out a sigh of relief, then looked puzzled.

"Xu Mo Bai, you really didn't pressure your sister‑in‑law?"

"No!"

Xu Mo Bai was completely innocent, "I even suspect that you, you silly one, said something wrong and upset the sister‑in‑law!"

Xu Mo Yan's elder sister‑in‑law strongly agreed! The younger brother‑in‑law tends to speak plainly. She had already experienced it the year she married in. After staying in the Xu family for a long time, she found this temperament quite good; she doesn't need to guess the younger brother‑in‑law's thoughts, nor worry that because of her the relationship between her husband and the younger brother‑in‑law would be affected; she lives more comfortably!

"It's not me!"
