Translator: Pika
Zu An was utterly stunned Is she a dog? How in the world is she able to sniff people out through their smell?
Unable to believe it, he lifted his sleeves and srance Don't all worances? I can’t tell the difference at all
Chu Huanzhao’s hand flashed out to grab his ear “Speak! What did you and Zheng Dan do? Did you do so that let o, let go!” Her grip was so painful that it nearly squeezed tears out of Zu An’s eyes He thought that his sister-in-laas slowly becoentler and more amicable, but she was still a Tyrannosaurus Rex at heart “I didn’t do anything at all! This s, when she fell froe and into ht the attention of the students passing by, iftly began gossiping aht that Zu An would at least fare a bit better now that he’s a teacher, but it looks like he is still considered the lowest in the family”
“Yeah, look at hohiht back at all”
“Well, that’s the life of a drafted-son-in-law Mooching is tough, y’know”
“It doesn’t look too bad It must be quite pleasurable to be held like that by such a beautiful sister-in-law”
“Shoo, get away froious?”
The students’ whisperings reached Zu An’s ears, and he al into tatters
“Are you sure?” Chu Huanzhao hesitantly released his ear, but she leaned forward to sniff hio away “Is there a fragrance in the world that lasts that long?”
Zu An replied sheepishly, “That’s not so I’d know”
Chu Huanzhao brooded for a while before finally backing off with a cold sniff “Her!”
Zu An was silent for a while, frowning at her choice of vocabulary “Honestly, where did you learn such crude words? You’re ruining your reputation like that”
“Why? Does your heart hurt when I insult Zheng Dan?” Chu Huanzhao morphed from the kind sister-in-law into the little demon who had used her whip to lash him “My older sister rarely has ti that I have to keep an eye on you in her place, lest you do so to let her down!”
“I really didn’t do anything at all! Can you stop slanderingout Even if I wanted to do soht doesn’t allow et my hands on the Evanescent Lotus by hook or by crook, no matter what price I have to pay!
“That better be the case!” Chu Huanzhao gave one last sniff before her te fuss out of this You should know that many men view my older sister as their dream lover, so it’s inevitable that other wo Dan is one of the you because she wants to prove her superiority by stealing my older sister’s man”
Zu An wasn’t too happy with that “Hey! Isn’t it possible that she’s si me because of my charm?”
Chu Huanzhao eyed Zu An fro her head With a perfectly earnest look on her face, she replied, “That’s absolutely impossible”
Zu An’s pride suffered a critical hit I really want to beat this lass up Can’t she at least lie to make me feel better?
“Hey, brother-in-law, there’s no need to get so angry At least you’ve got h?” Chu Huanzhao noticed the awful look on Zu An’s face and quickly placated him with a smile “You don’t kno many people in the acadely trade twenty years of their life just to marry my older sister in their lifetiht not know better, but you, of all people, should be aware of just what kind of relationshi+p your older sister and I have”
Chu Huanzhao smiled sheepishly She had indeed heard about their peculiar relationshi+p “You have to give my older sister some time You should also know that she’s a proud person It’s inevitable that she’s unable to accept you right away”
Zu An’s face darkened further “Is that how you console a person? Am I really as bad as you say?”
Chu Huanzhao replied with a sharp nod “In the past, even I wouldn’t have bothered to spare you a second glance However, after getting to know you, I realized that you are different from what the ruths I believe that my older sister will slowly come to like you once she knohat kind of person you are”
“Hopefully” In truth, Zu An wasn’t too bothered about that What was foremost in his mind was the Evanescent Lotus Without that, even if Chu Chuyan really fell for hiht
Zu An’s downcast tone and crestfallen silhouette weighed on Chu Huanzhao’s heart My brother-in-law sure is pitiful My older sister doesn’t like him; my parents scorn hi a tough time in the Chu Estate I must treat him better so that he can feel the warmth of a family
With that, she ran up to him and called out sweetly, “Brother-in-law~”
Taken aback by her sudden sugary tone, Zu An gave a little start “What?”
“Nothing much I just wanted to call you” Chu Huanzhao’s eyes domed into beautiful crescents
