Chapter 416 - I Want Brother Yan

"I want to see Brother Yan." complained Fang Zimo. He was slowly getting better at least his injuries were not bleeding anymore. 

Now that his health was recovering his vivacious tenacity was finally recovering as well. He was getting bolder with his demands and was no longer shy. 

Well at least not in front of the other members of the Lin family. In front of Lin Yan he was still as shy as ever like a sweet boy who didn't know anything better without his elder brother. 

Something that the others found quite annoying, Lin Chen went as far as to call Fang Zimo a hypocritical dual face bastard but the latter wasn't bothered at all! Instead he got clingier with Lin Yan.

"As I have already told you many times before brother Yan is not at home. He has something to do and can't stay at home with you. Why don't you read the book that second brother left behind for you to read ?" Lin Chen was having a hard time reining his temper. 

He wanted to snap his teeth and bite Fang Zimo's head but he knew that if he tried to so much as scold him the latter will exaggerate everything and complain to his second brother like a bullied little wife. 

Even Wan Wan was better than him! Had she ever tried to do something like this? No! And even if she did, he would be willing to indulge her. 

She was his wife and she can of course be wilful but who was this guy? Who gave him the right to cling to his second brother like that? "Stop asking me the same question again and again. I am getting a headache because of you!"

Silence. 

Fang Zimo said nothing for a few seconds and simply stared at Lin Chen and then asked with mocked indifference.. "With whom did he go outside with?"

'What's with that tone of yours? Why did it sound like a wife questioning the whereabouts of her husband?' Lin Chen roared in his head but he still didn't lose his temper on Fang Zimo though his grip on the bowl tightened so much that a crack formed. 

"Who do you think he went with? Of course Second Brother went with Su Wan. His wife ..you know?"

"Oh that shortie." said Fang Zimo with a casual tone.

Lin Chen paused he stared at Fang Zimo and tilted his head not believing what he just heard. 

Shorty? Did this guy just call his wife shorty? Really? Did he mishear?!

"What did you just say?"

"What? Shorty?"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY???" Shouted Lin Chen but the thing was he wasn't the only one who screamed. There was another voice mixed in together with his and he knew to whom this voice belonged to. 

Stiffly he turned to look behind him and sure enough behind him stood Shen Junxi who was glaring at Fang Zimo.

"What did you just say? Did you call my Beautiful, No more like Outrageously Gorgeous, and Extremely Cute Niece a shorty?" Shen Junxi was like a bull who saw red whenever Su Wan was concerned. 

It was just Fang Zimo's bad luck that he was caught while bad-mouthing Su wan behind her back.

However Fang Zimo didn't think that he said anything wrong. Although he knew that Su Wan was good, rich, and beautiful enough to match with his brother Yan.. He still couldn't bring himself to like her. 

She was a kind woman and treated him really well but her tongue was too sharp and she didn't hold back when she scolded him. 

The last time he tried to skip taking his medicine she scolded him until his liver turned green. Ever since then their relationship degraded to that of an evil mother-in-law and a sharp-tongued daughter-in-law.

Now whenever Su Wan was mentioned Fang Zimo wouldn't be able to stop himself just like Su Wan wouldn't hold herself back from riling him up. "I said nothing wrong. She is a shorty isn't she?"

Fang Zimo couldn't find any faults with Su Wan and he was too prideful to call her names that she wasn't so he grabbed the only nerve that hurt Su Wan the most. 

Her short physique.

"What do you mean? What do you mean by that she is short? She is still growing! And she is still the cutest! Even that short height of hers she can still give the most beautiful woman in the world a run for their money!" snapped Shen Junxi not wanting to admit that Su Wan had any shortcomings.

"That's right! Wan Wan is the cutest!" Little sidekick Lin Chen echoed. 

"Yes the cutest!" 

"She is short -just admit it!"

"She isn't."

"They are at it again huh?" Madam Zhu who came out hearing the noise. She felt a headache coming things have been like this ever since Su Wan scolded Fang Zimo for not finishing his medicine. 

She knew that things won't get better in the future either. Once her second brother-in-law arrived here; things will become even more chaotic. 

She can even imagine her husband and second brother-in-law fighting against Fang Zimo and her second sister-in-law and Lin Chen cheering them in the back avidly. 

Lin Yu only sighed he was getting tired of these everyday fights but Su Wan was indeed the cutest wife in the entire world!

"Achoo." Su Wan who was checking the arrangements for Lord Fei's banquet, frowned after wiping her nose. Who was talking about her behind her back?

The weather was so hot there was no way she could catch a cold. So someone must be bad-mouthing her. 

Humph! It must be that overbearing Fang Zimo. Just wait once she returns home she will teach him a good lesson.

"Oh, dear are you sick?" Lord Fei really liked Su Wan this girl who knew how to cook and had a good personality. He had been talking to her for quite a while and he liked her more and more. 

She was really a good seedling. He was seventy years old but he had no child his only son died in a battle protecting the emperor. 

After that his wife asked him to take in many Concubines but he didn't agree.. He had been childless for years and now he couldn't help but pay more attention to this likeable girl who was pretty and interesting with all those little ideas in her head.
