Chapter 46 (1/2)

Everyone’s expression changed when they heard the joke that could never come true.

Yun Xi looked embarra.s.sed as she squinted maliciously at the cynical eldest heir of the Chens. She squeezed the chopsticks in her hand even tighter.

Nonsense! Was this how he repaid someone who saved his life?! How dare he make fun of her!

However, Chen Yichen appeared as if this matter didn’t concern him, even though he was the one to have instigated it. He half-smiled as he looked at the angry, young girl sitting across from him.

“Oh my! I’m so scared! This girl’s eyes can kill!”

Yun Xi directly rolled her eyes at him before digging into her breakfast. She was truly going to ignore him now.

His throat seemed to always have the energy to poke fun at her even though it had just healed, so why hadn’t she been a bit rougher when she’d changed his dressing last night?

He deserved to die from the pain!

“Nonsense!” Jiang Wanyun kicked her son from under the table and glared at him. “You’re so disobedient. How can you make fun of Yun Xi?”

Because her son had opened this can of worms, Jiang Wanyun didn’t dare to entertain this idea now, even though she’d thought of it as well.

“Mom, would you dare say that you weren’t thinking the same thing? Also, what’s the difference of being the granddaughter-in-law of Grandfather Chen, as compared to being the granddaughter-in-law of Grandfather Jiang?”

As he said this, he even looked right at the two elderly men giving him solemn glares.

“Hurry up and shut your mouth! Eat your food!”

Jiang Wanyun truly couldn’t handle this child. He wasn’t embarra.s.sed, but she was certainly embarra.s.sed as his mother!

Grandfather Chen spoiled his grandson and had always been protective of him. When he heard his grandson say this, he also glanced at Grandfather Jiang like he was inquiring about his opinion.

“Don’t you even think about it! There is a difference between Yun Xi being your or my granddaughter-in-law!”

She’d either live with the Jiangs or the Chens, so he could see her every day if she lived with the Jiangs.

But if she lived at the Jiangs, he would have to ask for Grandfather Chen’s permission before he could even see her. How could she be filial to him if she didn’t even live together with him?
