Chapter 114 - Scared

Of course after Su Wan gave Lin Rui a puff , everyone else too demanded to have a puff picked up and placed in their bowls .

" Wan Wan - I want a puff too , I praised you so much and yet I haven't got a puff from you , that's not fair !" Lin Chen immediately made his objection known to the world by pouting and howling at the same time . 

Su Wan saw him acting like a baby and rolled her eyes at him " aren't you the one who have the bowl right in front of him ? I simply gave Ah Rui a puff because he is the farthest from the bowl - if you want to eat puffs just pick one and eat "

Lin Chen was unhappy at once , he wanted to say something but before he could Lin Yu tugged on Su Wan's sleeves and said with a smile " Wan Wan I w..would like a p..puff too "

Su Wan who was still a bit guilty regarding her wet dream wouldn't dare to say no , so she immediately picked up a puff from her chopsticks and placed it in Lin Yu's bowl . Lin Chen looked at the bowl and then looked at the victorious glint in Lin Yu's eyes - and his chest swelled with fury ! 

He couldn't unleash it on Su Wan nor could he say anything about Lin Yu who was such a scheming little brat , if he did - he will be the one getting scolded by Su Wan just like this morning , so he could only do one thing . 

Su Wan was surprised when Lin Chen abruptly stood up , she thought maybe he got unhappy because she refused to give him a puff and was leaving the table in anger but to her surprise , Lin Chen actually picked up the bowl stomped over her chair , placed the bowl right in front of her , then sat back down . 

" well ? Now the bowl in not in front of me "cocking a brow he spoke looking at Su Wan with arrogance clearly quite happy about his smart plan . 

Lin Jing looked at his brother and so did the other , they couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed at Lin Chen 's childish actions . 

Su Wan too couldn't help but look at Lin Chen in shock - this , what was this ? Who left their child here for her to babysit ? 

Only mother Lin alone found it  entertaining , she let out a snort and laughed , then she kindly looked at Su Wan and said " just give him one , he has been like this since he was a child , if you don't give him a puff , he might really sulk for an  entire day "

Su Wan didn't want to indulge Lin Chen like this but then she remembered what happened last night , even though she didn't want to over indulge her husbands , she was indeed indulging them in one way or another . Didn't she kissed Lin Chen last night because of this too ? Because she knew the guy was stubborn- fine , fine who asked  her to be such a big hearted person ? 

So , Su Wan picked a puff and placed it in Lin Chen's bowl , Lin Chen's face lit up like a Christmas tree and he took his time savouring the flavour of the puff given to him by his wife . Su Wan found his actions a bit amusing but then she felt two gazes locked at her , both Lin Jing and Lin Yan were looking at her like she had betrayed their trust , Su Wan felt her scalp tingle and she gave the two of them a puff each as well . Really , keeping five husbands satisfied was really hard ( you have no idea , its just the beginning ) 

After everyone was done eating , Su Wan rushed inside her room and hoisted a big wicker basket that was used to bring fire wood from the forest and rushed outside in the same speed to meet with Lin Jing who was already waiting outside for her . 

" Let's go , Jing ge " Su Wan was really excited about this trip to mountain , she had heard that in the ancient era , the mountains were filled with rich reservoirs . She was expecting to have a big haul today , if she was lucky ( which she clearly has been ) , she might actually find something really good to earn more money ! 

Lin Jing originally wanted to ask Su Wan to think about it again but seeing her excitement , he couldn't bring himself to say so , in the end he could only nod and walk ahead of her , whatever , if any danger arises, he will take care of his wife and protect her . 

Ever since Lin Jing had a one of one with the wolves , he had found the thickets of the forest as a dangerous place . In the past when his brother used to say that they wanted to go to the forest , Lin Jing was the first one to voice his disapproval and refusal - in his eyes the mountain was the place where vicious and ferocious animals lived and people who had no idea how to hunt or deal with the animals should avoid it like a haunted graveyard ! 

But who would have thought that he will be subdued by his wife and had to take her to a place where he most definitely didn't want to take his family at . 

" if you see something coming remember to hide first alright ?" Said Lin Jing when They arrived at the foot of the mountains, he originally hoped for Su Wan to change her mind but now that she was here , he could only warn her with words but - why was his wife's face so tight and taut ? 

Su Wan who didn't know that the mountains were the place where the villagers buried their dead , was looking down at the road . On both sides of the road were burial mounds messily spread around - weeds were out of control , covering the mounds with their abundance amount  with grave marks dotting the head of the grave  and once or twice Su Wan heard some wild dogs howling .

Lin Jing didn't understood why Su Wan was like this but then he saw how she never looked up once , it had never bothered him before because he had seem much more dangerous things than graves - so he didn't realise it till yet , only now when he saw that Su Wan didn't dare to take a look around and was breathing shallowly did he realise that this little fierce wife of his who could wave a cleaver at his aunt and threaten her family - was actually afraid of ghosts ! 

Su Wan wanted to cry but had no tears , she didn't fear the ghosts but she had severe Necrophobia- she feared seeing something that she didn't want to , after her mother jumped off the apartment building when she was seven after her father cheating affair was caught - Su Wan had developed an extreme fear towards things like graveyard and corpses - if possible she wouldn't even breathe ( A/n i always hold my breathe when I get closer to graveyards , I tried not to but -) . 

Right , now she was really afraid that she would see something inauspicious and trigger her panic attack , so she didn't dare to even look up - her strides were faster and longer as she clearly want to get out this place . 

Lin Jing saw her hurry forward , not even looking whether or not he was following her . He rushed beside Su Wan and held her cold hand in his warm one " Don't be afraid , Although this place is isolated and a little desolate and scary , there is no such thing as haunted being here , you won't see any ghosts " 

Su Wan rolled her eyes ' really do you think she fears things like ghosts and what not ? It was just her phobia that was acting up ! Who did you think kicked open the door of that so called haunted room of our house ?' 

" I'm not afraid " said Su Wan even though she wasn't happy with Lin Jing 's guess , she didn't flare up at him or more like she couldn't - in the end she could only come out and speak the truth , in case her stupid husband took her as some scaredy cat " I just fear the dead body - after you know my mother died " Su Wan was talking about her mother whom she lost at the age of seven but Lin Jing thought that she was talking about her original Su Wan's mother. 

" En , don't worry I'm here " said Lin Jing tightening his hold on her hand as if trying to embed his warmth and courage in Su Wan.. and for the first time , Su Wan wasn't as distressed as before when she had to see or walk through such things .
