Chapter 6

In the early morning, Wang Weixi woke to crazy rings at the doorbell. He opened his eyes and threw a gentle glance at Chen Kexin who was in his arms. He was afraid that she was awakened by the rings. Seeing her sleep soundly, Wang Weixi felt relieved and got out of bed.

He dressed quickly and rushed to open the door.

Then he saw Chen Keren who had red hair and stony face standing in front of the door.

Wang Weixi was stunned, sighing inwardly, “The sister-in-law’s red hair is… so striking.” Then he immediately came to his senses and said, “Good morning, Keren, come in.”

Chen Keren darted an indifferent glance at Wang Weixi, saying, “You’re badly dressed. How could you show up like this?” Then she walked in.

Wang Weixi embarrassedly lowered his head. He glanced at the button which he had not fastened in time. He closed the door and did up the button with a blush before he walked back to the living room.

Chen Keren was calmly sitting on the sofa while leafing through a fashion magazine she carried with her, but she did not spare her brother-in-law a glance.

“Have you had breakfast? I’ll get something for you.” Wang Weixi asked awkwardly while giving her a glass of water.

Chen Keren responded in a toneless voice, “Don’t do that. I am not an idler. I have my breakfast at 7 o’clock every morning.” She kept browsing through the magazine without raising her head, but what she said had pricked Wang Weixi’s tender heart.

Wang Weixi’s mouth twitched. “Oh… you get up early. Hehe, I have been exhausted lately and sleep so late. Drink some water… Drink some water…”

In fact, he desired to run away for his life.

“Had my sister bled you dry?” Chen Keren suddenly spoke in an indifferent tone.

Wang Weixi froze while he felt countless crows cawing over his head. “Bleed me dry?”

No replies from her brother-in-law, Chen Keren only sneered, “Will that woman die without a man?”

…

Wang Weixi wanted to turn around and seriously ask Chen Keren if Chen Kexin and her have a different mother because the two sisters possessed extremely disparate character. “What terrible things has Chen Kexin done so that her younger sister could behave without scruple and hated her most?”

“And, since you dislike your elder sister, why did you come to my house?” Wang Weixi thought resentfully, but he did not dare to speak out his real thoughts, because it was said that his sister-in-law was bad-tempered and even her father Chen Derong feared her to death. On second thought, Wang Weixi peacefully walked into the room. Quickly finishing washing his face and brush his teeth, he glanced at Chen Kexin who was lying on the bed, gingerly approached her, and sat by the bed, saying, “Sweetheart, your sister is here. Get up.”

He thought Chen Kexin would not immediately wake up, but she suddenly rose up at an amazing speed as if a swan goose flew toward the sky, which shocked Wang Weixi.

“How could you be so agile?” Wang Weixi widened his eyes and stared at his wife with his mouth shaped into “O”.

Chen Kexin waved her hand, got dressed at the Mars speed and dashed into the washroom. Washing her face, brushing her face, fixing her face, and tying her shoulder-length hair up high. Then she got out of it and saw her husband wear a surprised look.

She did not care why Wang Weixi was astonished, saying before she rushed out. “Honey, hurry up. Make breakfast for me. I’m going out now.”

Chen Keren held a female cigarette with her slender fingers and shot an emotionless glance at the panicky Chen Kexin who sat down by her side. She drew slightly on his cigarette and puffed out a cloud of smoke which made her sister cough violently.

“You still don’t like the smell of cigarettes?” Chen Keren flicked the ash from her cigarette, narrowed her eyes, and asked with a vague smile.

Chen Kexin waved her hands to shake off the smoke in disgust, saying angrily, “Keren, why are you smoking again? How many times have I told you not to smoke?”

Wang Weixi walked out. As he saw Chen Keren smoking, extreme astonishment was revealed in his eyes. Chen Keren put her magazine away and expertly put out her cigarette. If a man did this, his action would be considered rough, but Chen Keren had done it in a graceful way.

Chen Keren’s frosty eyes touched Wang Weixi’s surprised look. She did not feel embarrassed. Instead, the corner of her lips lifted up, as if she was demonstrating. Wang Weixi shrugged his shoulder. He really did not like this sister-in-law, so he ducked into the kitchen.

Chen Kexin turned to glance at Wang Weixi’s back and accusingly spoke to her sister, “Look at yourself, how could you behave like this in front of your brother-in-law?”

No matter how nasty Chen Keren was, she was still the only sister Chen Kexin cherished. Chen Kexin thought she was hardly comparable to Chen Keren’s finger.

Chen Keren smiled indifferently and said in a steady tone, “I heard that the old man brought the woman home. What do you think?” At this point, her eyes suddenly became extremely cold, as if an icy light shone in the heart.

Chen Kexin frowned slightly and dropped her gaze, in which a glimmer of imperceptible sadness was revealed. Chen Keren watched Chen Kexin’s expression with interest, as she wanted to know whether her elder sister would bear it or not.

The sound of cooking was heard, the aroma of dishes pervading over. Chen Kexin suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the kitchen, as if she was deep in thought.

“I won’t allow the woman to be our families.” Chen Kexin turned away and spoke to her sister. Wang Weixi did not know that Chen Keren would not have visited her elder sister if it were not for her father’s mistress. That was the reason why Chen Kexin quickly got up after learning about her sister’s arrival. The two sisters had the same secret and misery.

Chen Keren stared at her elder sister who was rarely serious but so decisive at this moment, and suddenly doubted whether her sister deliberately acted up and posed those coy threats.

Chen Kexin cared about it more than anyone. She hated the man who hurt her feelings and his cunning mother, and cared whether her father Chen Derong would marry a woman to take her mother’s place.

“She said she won’t allow…” Chen Keren finally showed a faint, warm smile on her face.

When she was about to say something, Wang Weixi came out of the kitchen. “Honey, come and have breakfast. Keren, come together. It’s 9 o’clock now. Your breakfast at 7 o’clock has almost digested.”

Chen Kexin changed her serious expression, joyfully ran toward her husband and held his arm. “Honey, thanks. Love you.”

Wang Weixi embarrassedly whispered in her ear, “Keren is here. Don’t be like this. Come and enjoy your breakfast.”

Chen Kexin pursed her lips and dragged Wang Weixi into the kitchen. Turning his head, Wang Weixi heard Chen Keren murmur sarcastically. “I’m not a pig. Why do I need to eat so late and eat too much?”

“… I have to bear it,” Wang Weixi thought.

He shook his head with resignation. “The sister-in-law is not as good as the half of my wife.” Thinking of it, he gave up being upset about her attitude, delightedly walked into the kitchen with his wife and started their sweet breakfast time.

Chen Kexin was having porridge by the dinner table, an unusual look revealed in her eyes.

Wang Weixi raised his eyes. Noticing her unusual expression, he asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? You don’t like it?”

Chen Kexin raised her head and gave him a big smile, saying, “Nah, but I felt down for I probably won’t be able to see my husband in the rest of the day.” .

Wang Weixi asked in surprise. “What? Are going to do some shopping with Keren?” The amusing scene crossed his mind that Chen Kexin walked the street, chattering in an adorable way, but Chen Keren was still arrogant and responded with a frosty expression. What a strange combination! Thinking of it, he could not help but shake his head. “No, if my wife goes out with her, she will hold my leg and cry after coming back.”

Chen Kexin shook his head. “Of course not. Haha, we’ll go home today.”

“Visit your father? But you don’t have such a custom, right? And even if you want to pay a visit to your father, I should go with you…” Wang Weixi became more puzzled.

Chen Kexin laughed out. Seeing Wang Weixi with a tangled face, she used the chopsticks to tap his forehead, saying, “I have an agreement with my sister that we need to pay my dad a visit every week. Honey, I can’t be with you today. Sorry.”

Wang Weixi felt a stab of jealousy when he saw Chen Kexin wear a guilty look on her face. “This is the second day after the wedding. Dear, you’re so cruel to me.” He gloomily had a mouthful of porridge. “Well, well… But you’d better come back early.”

Chen Kexin nodded. Then she rose to held his neck, saying, “Honey, miss me. Muma.”

Planting a sweet kiss on Wang Weixi’s cheek, she got out of the kitchen quickly. Then the sound of closing the door was heard.

Wang Weixi held his chin in one hand while sadly staring at the porridge Chen Kexin had not finished. “I really do not like to let my wife out of my sight. It’s frustrating…”
