Chapter 176 DRAMA & WEDDING PART 6
Chapter 176 DRAMA & WEDDING PART 6
Xue Lin unlocked her luggage and found all her books and clothes inside. She packed them along with her sketchbooks, school uniforms, rest of her storybooks and her childhood dolls.
"I didn’t know you liked dolls," Ge Chen remarked. He was delighted to learn something new about her especially considering how secretive she usually is about herself.
Xue Lin stated, "We don’t have dolls in our house, do we? I’ll put them in the study room so that I can place my head on the dolls while reading."
Imagining how his study room will become a dollhouse, Ge Chen chuckled in a low tone. "Fine, do whatever you want." He suggested, "If you want, I can buy some more soft dolls like these."
"Will you really?" Xue Lin looked at him with great expectations.
Ge Chen smiled quietly at her eagerness and agreed, "I will. Do you have any preference?"
Xue Lin couldn’t miss such an opportunity. She gave him a list without hesitation, "I don’t like stuffed animals but dogs are fine. Also, I like teddy bears, humpty dumpty, Winnie the Pooh, girl dolls and these dolls have to be soft dolls. I like Barbie dolls too but I already have three Barbie dolls. I don’t need any more of those."
Ge Chen stared at his cute wife silently and listened to her long list of demands with rapt attention.
The fact that she wished to decorate his study room with her dolls, it only showed that she thought of him as her better half. She thought of herself as his family and thought of his house as her own – realizing that gave him no small amount of pleasant feeling.
After she was done telling him about all the dolls she wanted, she realized that although both of them had stable jobs, those were not enough to buy so many dolls. She worriedly looked at him and said, "My husband, you don’t have to buy them all together. Let’s buy a doll every two months."
Ge Chen came closer and placed his hand over her shoulder. "My wife, don’t worry about money. This is the last thing you should worry about."
Xue Lin placed her hands on her waist. "What are you talking about? We have to save money for emergency situations. What if there is a problem in the future and we can’t keep the housekeepers? Don’t tell me that you will use your mother’s company money? Didn’t you say that the company money was for the orphans and that’s why you would never touch it?"
Ge Chen gazed at her and then assured her, "Yes, I indeed said that. I won’t touch the money. Don’t you see that we hardly spend our money anyway? You really don’t have to think about it."
Xue Lin narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Why do I feel like you have another job? ...It’s not a shady business, is it?"
Ge Chen paused before asking with a straight face, "My wife, do I look like someone who would do such a thing?"
Xue Lin shrugged. "We’ve just known each other for a few months. Most of the people don’t find their partners’ true self till they die. Aren’t you expecting too much faith from me?"
Yep, that’s Xue Lin. When she talks logically, it’s merciless. And yet, no one can blame her for it. Because, whatever she says is the cold hard truth.
The same thing happened to Ge Chen.
He nodded and agreed with her, "You are right. I will try to earn your trust."
Xue Lin disagreed. "That’s not necessary. It’s better if we try to learn about each other slowly and steadily. What do you think?" Thinking she was being too forceful about their marriage relationship, she asked for her husband’s opinion.
Ge Chen understood her thoughts. "You are good at dealing with relationships," he praised her in a cool tone.
"Of course I am! I’m the best housewife material," Xue Lin proudly boasted.
Ge Chen hid his laughter and nodded in agreement.
She didn’t have many things to take with her. After they were done packing, he asked, "I didn’t see you talking to your cousin’s husband. Why didn’t you talk to him?"
She explained, "I got along with him before, believe me. However, he tricked me to go to the marriage meeting with your trash family. I wanted to punch him badly back then. But, he was my childhood tutor and I have a soft spot for my teachers."
Ge Chen’s grey eyes darkened slightly. He didn’t continue the topic.
Taking the luggage and some bags of books and dolls, they went downstairs.
Everyone was quiet in the living room. Since her cousin and cousin’s husband were here, it was even more awkward.
Wanwan saw Xue Lin coming down and smiled at her. She moved closer and asked, "Xue Lin, how come you didn’t tell us about your wedding? We are so close to you."
"I really needed my relatives there but my dearest mother and elder sister made sure that I couldn’t contact anyone. When I’ve got such a nasty family, how can I get close to my relatives?" Xue Lin didn’t pull any punches.
Wanwan looked even more awkward. She couldn��t find a word to say.
Her husband, Yu Banshan, came forward and introduced himself to Ge Chen, "I’m Yu Banshan, Xue Lin’s brother-in-law. It’s nice you meet you."
He reached out his hand but Ge Chen didn’t even look at his hand. Rather he kept eye contact without blinking and coldly warned him, "Stay away from my wife. Next time I see you tricking my wife, that will be your last day."
"...!" Xue Lin looked at her husband in surprise. She felt proud that her husband was a man who wouldn’t filter his mouth while dealing with unsightly things.
"Y-you!" Yu Banshan stiffened and Wanwan’s face paled.
"Ahahaaha, what a joke. Young Master Ge, your joke is so hilarious," Li Lifen tried his best to relax the atmosphere.
