The Crazy Son-In-Law

“Bro, did that guy just kick and burst our tire…?” The girl blinked in disbelief.

“Maybe it was a coincidence, how could someone burst a tire with a kick?” The man in the suit said as he walked towards the car, “I’ll go check.”

“Damn! The tire really did burst!”

…

“Yu, welcome home.” Mu Sheng opened his arms to welcome Cheng Yu.

He was impeccably dressed in a tailor-made grey casual suit, a neatly-ironed, spotless white shirt, dark wool casual trousers, and brown Italian customized leather shoes. His warm smile was like a spring breeze, eyes as cold as winter stars, handsome features, and elegant demeanor. Cheng Yu, one of the four young masters of the capital, could be recognized by anyone, even in a crowd.

He did not hug Mu Sheng but lightly punched his chest, smiled gently and made a harmless joke, “I thought I was early as I didn’t see you inside.”

“I was delayed on the road, just a step late.” Mu Sheng didn’t mention the strange man they had encountered outside the airport. It was simply too absurd. He had checked the tire, the outer layer was indeed kicked into tatters. Who would believe it?

“Yu!” Mu Yuxin stood with her hands behind her back, her almond eyes shining softly, calling out somewhat shyly.

“Xin, you’re becoming more and more beautiful. Let’s walk and talk.” Cheng Yu said with a smile.

Mu Yuxin came forward and hung on his arm, and Cheng Yu didn’t resist at all. The Mu family and Cheng family had been friends for generations. He and Mu Sheng had grown up together, and they had watched Mu Yuxin grow up. He always saw her as a little sister, but the little sister had unknowingly grown up, and her feelings for him had gradually changed.

As one of the four young masters of the capital, he never lacked attention, especially from women. He also never hid his infatuation with Tang Shishi, so he didn’t take seriously the feelings of Mu Yuxin, who he had always seen as a little sister.

But how could Mu Yuxin not know Cheng Yu’s thoughts? Her big brother was like a flame in the dark night, too dazzling. Perhaps it was the vanity of a young girl, or perhaps she truly fell in love with him. Regardless, she still approached him like a small moth to a flame, even knowing that his heart belonged to another.

“I thought you should have come back a few days earlier.” Mu Sheng said with a chuckle.

He knew Cheng Yu had gone to follow Tang Shishi, and according to what he knew, Tang Shishi had returned to the capital half a month ago.

“Huh?” Cheng Yu looked at him in confusion.

“Nothing.” Mu Sheng chose not to mention the name Tang Shishi in front of his sister, Mu Yuxin. Even though he knew the chances of Cheng Yu falling for Mu Yuxin were pitifully small, as a brother, he could not bear to hurt her even a little bit. If this was just a beautiful dream, then let it last a little longer.

The three of them chatted casually as they walked to the airport parking lot.

“Wait a bit, the car will be here soon.” Mu Sheng said with an awkward smile.

“You didn’t drive?” Cheng Yu asked.

“There was a small accident on the road, the car broke down. I asked the company to send a car, it will be here soon. We must have a good drink tonight, you’ve been gone for over a month.”

Mu Sheng couldn’t tell Cheng Yu that Mu Yuxin had picked a fight and someone had kicked their car tire to a burst. It not only damaged his sister’s cute and obedient image but also was quite embarrassing for him.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

“Drinking?” Cheng Yu hesitated.

“If you’re tired, we can do it another day. Anyway, you’re back now, you don’t lack today. You’ve been traveling and must be tired. You can go back and rest.” Mu Sheng suggested. If it wasn’t for Mu Yuxin insisting he invite Cheng Yu to have a proper gathering, he wouldn’t want to disturb Cheng Yu at this time.

“I can skip others’ drinks, but I have to go to yours. We’re good brothers, after all.” Cheng Yu said with a warm smile.

Mu Yuxin’s face lit up with joy at his words.

…

The Swift Restaurant was a famous establishment in the capital. By eight o’clock in the evening, the restaurant was filled with customers. The warm lighting and soft music complemented each other, creating an exceptionally comfortable atmosphere.

After meeting Tang Shishi at the hotel, Xiao Shun was brought to the restaurant by her. Led by a good-looking female server wearing a bow tie, they tooka seat at table number 65.

Under the ambiguous lighting, Tang Shishi’s long hair cascaded over her shoulders. Her face was as delicate as a peach blossom, her skin as smooth as cream, and those captivating peach-blossom eyes seemed as if they could well up with tears at any moment. She wore a pair of tight white Capri pants that showcased her slim waist and long, beautiful legs. A simple, fashionable pink chiffon shirt was tucked into her waistband. She exuded various charms – seductive, competent, and graceful. She was indeed a highly attractive woman.

“What would you like to eat?” Tang Shishi asked as she scanned the menu, glancing up at Xiao Shun.

“Anything.” He didn’t particularly care for fine food. If it hadn’t been for Tang Shishi bringing him here, he would have been happy with a bowl of beef noodles from a small diner.

“Do you have any recommendations?” Tang Shishi asked the server, apparently not a frequent visitor to this place, even though the restaurant was quite famous.

“May I suggest our Black Pepper Steak?” The female waiter suggested with a smile.

“Alright, we’ll have the Black Pepper Steak. And a bottle of red wine,” Tang Shishi decided.

“Very well, please wait a moment,” the server said, taking the menu and leaving.

“You drove here, shouldn’t you avoid drinking?” Xiao Shun reminded her, concerned.

“Are you worried that I’ll become reckless after drinking, or are you worried you’ll lose control of yourself?” Tang Shishi blinked her long eyelashes as she asked teasingly.

“Hey, you’re a young lady of noble birth, can you be a little more elegant and composed?” Xiao Shun was annoyed. It should be a man’s job to play the rogue. How could this woman steal his role and make him seem like a prude?

Sure enough, Tang Shishi gave him a sideways glance, “Pretending to be serious, huh? Did you, or did you not, stare at my chest for three seconds? Do you like what you see? 32C. Isn’t that the size men like?”

Xiao Shun almost spat out a mouthful of water. He wished he could slam his head on the table. How could this woman be so outrageous? She was more restrained in Stillwater – perhaps she felt more comfortable on her own turf.

This man is so cute, even when he’s pretending to be serious. Tang Shishi watched him without a word, waiting to see how he’d talk his way out of this.

“Alright, I admit it. Appreciating beauty is human nature. You are so beautiful, it’s only natural for me, a man, to look a few more times. As for whether it’s the size men like, I haven’t touched many, so I’m not sure,” Xiao Shun cleared his throat, trying to maintain his composure as he said this frankly.

“How many is not many?” Tang Shishi asked, looking at him teasingly.

“…”

Xiao Shun truly wished he could just die. How many? There were none at all! Better to end this conversation now. He had lost, completely and utterly.

“None yet?” Tang Shishi asked, looking at him playfully.

“…”

Xiao Shun really wished he could just die. How many? None at all, to be honest. It’s better to end this topic now. He was defeated, completely and disastrously.
