196 The Only Strange Thing (1/2)

Su Yan glanced at the synopsis but didn't see anything strange there either. See? He had been right! This was a completely normal novel. Nie Chang just hadn't understood. Mn, he should tell him about it later.

Su Yan clicked on the [read] button and started with the first chapter. He soon had to find out that even though his boyfriend had put in a lot of effort with preparing the notes he had gotten some things wrong.

This novel wasn't about four friends going on an adventure to find wives at all! No, actually, this was the story about two brothers who were called Wang Ya Hui and Wang Ya Ting. Wang Ya Ting was the older of the two and he was the only one who wanted to marry.

If you really wanted to find something about the novel that was weird, it would probably be this character. At first glance, nothing was wrong with Wang Ya Ting. He was a good-looking guy with a friendly disposition. This was definitely a man who shouldn't have any problem with finding a suitable wife. Which woman wouldn't want such a man as her husband?

Unfortunately, Wang Ya Ting had high requirements. And not of the usual kind. Of course, he would prefer it if she was pretty but that wasn't the most important thing. She didn't need to be intelligent or thrifty either since their family had enough money. But there was one thing that wasn't debatable: She needed to get along with his little brother.

Wang Ya Hui was eight years younger than his brother, a cute youth brimming with curiosity. Unfortunately, he was the epitome of naivete. He trusted each and every person he met at first sight. Getting abducted every three days or poisoned every five wasn't anything strange for him.

There wasn't a better word to describe him than 'troublesome' but Wang Ya Ting still regarded him as the apple of his eye. This was his only brother, after all! And he would forever stay his only brother since their mother had died already. Keeping him safe and making sure that he did not want for anything was the most important task in Wang Ya Ting's life. Thus finding a wife that loved his brother just as much as he did was necessary.

Unfortunately, his way of doing things wasn't making things easier. If a woman looked at his brother slightly longer, he thought she was interested in him in an indecent way and threw her out. If a woman didn't look at his brother, he thought she disliked him and threw her out. The subjects she chose to talk about in his brother's presence were judged just as harshly. Thus no woman in the city where they lived dared to think of marrying Wang Ya Ting anymore.

And this was where the novel began.

Wang Ya Ting wasn't getting younger but he had no chance to find a wife in their city. Thus traveling through the country in search of one was the answer he had come up with. There was only one problem he was presented with when he brought the idea up at home and this was what the author described at the beginning of the novel.

[”Xiao Hui!” Wang Ya Ting hugged his beloved younger brother to his chest and patted his head before combing through his hair, each gesture as careful as if he was handling something fragile.
