Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Shanchu was brushing her teeth in front of the sink, staring at herself in the mirror.
If something like this happened a few more times, she would really suspect that either she or Huo Xunzhou might be impotent.
She insisted on pumping iron for the past six years.
Everyone who had seen her said that her body curves looked more and more beautiful.
When she posted selfies on Weibo, the netizens who saw the post would comment: [Cuddle Wife.]
Therefore, she was definitely potent.
Huo Xunzhou was definitely impotent.
Lin Shanchu peeked through the mirror at Huo Xunzhou, who was brushing
his teeth.
He had such an impeccable face, superior intelligence and outstanding abilities.
Perhaps God was jealous that Huo Xunzhou was too perfect, so he suffered from a hidden illness.
However, she would not abandon him.
Huo Xunzhou noticed that she was looking at him.
“You are going to overbrush your teeth,” he said as he brought the mouthwash to her lips.
Lin Shanchu came to her senses and reached out to take the cup. Then, she lowered her head and seriously brushed her teeth.
When she put down the toothbrush, she noticed Huo Xunzhou, who had finished brushing his teeth, standing at the side and sizing her up.
Lin Shanchu blinked and met his gaze.
Huo Xunzhou bent down slightly and leaned closer to her with his eyes on the same level as hers.
“You look disappointed after you woke up in the morning. Did you have a bad dream last night?”
There was an imperceptible smile in his eyes, but his tone was very serious.
For a reason, Lin Shanchu felt that there was an implicit meaning behind his words.
However, she couldn not tell what the implicit meaning was because he hid it a little too deeply.
“No.” Lin Shanchu shook her head.
“Is that so?” He did not seem to believe her.
Before Lin Shanchu could reply to him, he straightened his back and said,
“Let’s go eat breakfast.”
Lin Shanchu, who was led into the dining room by Huo Xunzhou, saw Yun Wu craning her neck to look at the door.
“Good morning, Third Brother! Good morning, Shanshan!” Yun Wu curiously sized Lin Shanchu up.
Huo Xunzhou pulled out a chair under the dining table. After Lin Shanchu sat down, he took the seat next to her.
Yun Wu said tentatively, “Shanshan, you seem to be in pretty good shape today…”
Lin Shanchu touched her face and smiled. “Is that so?”
“Yeah.” Yun Wu felt a little puzzled as she saw Lin Shanchu’s normal expression.
Huo Xunzhou did nothing last night?
That’s right. Huo Xunzhou had already forfeited all her holidays for the next year, so his anger should have quelled.
Besides, he definitely could not bear to do anything to Lin Shanchu.
Yun Wu sighed.
As expected, she was the only one who got hurt in the end.
After breakfast, Li MO came over.
Li MO did not have any relatives, nor did he go anywhere during the New Year. Hence, Huo Xunzhou called him over to the Yun family to celebrate New Year’s
Eve.
Yun Jin slept until noon.
When he saw Li MO, he ran over with sparkling eyes. Then, he pulled Li Mo’s arm and said excitedly, “Li MO, you’re here. Let’s play cards this afternoon, shall we?”
Lin Shanchu could tell that things were not simple just by looking at his fighting spirit.
Li MO was usually a man of few words, so he nodded obediently. “Alright.” “Li MO is worse at playing cards than Yun Jin,” Huo Xunzhou whispered to Lin
Lin Shanchu was speechless. No wonder Yun Jin was so excited.
After lunch, Yun Jin started playing cards.
“Don’t come over!” Yun Jin said warily as Lin Shanchu glanced at him.
Lin Shanchu just wanted to come over and join in the fun at first.
Hearing Yun Jin’s words, she laughed. “The more people playing cards, the merrier it will be.”
“Zhouzhou!” Yun Jin shouted at the top of his lungs, “Quickly take your wife away!”
Surprisingly, Huo Xunzhou stood up and walked towards Lin Shanchu.
“I have to stay up tonight to see the New Year in, so I’ll head back to my room and rest for a while.”
He made a statement instead of posing a question.
“You will just stay up until 12:00 a.m. to see the New Year in.” Although she rarely stayed up late, 12:00 a.m. was not considered late. There was no need for him to catch up on sleep now.
Huo Xunzhou smiled slightly and coaxed her in a soft tone. “Rest for a while. I’ll accompany you.”
Accompany her?
She suspected that he was sleepy.
“Alright then. ”
Yun Jin watched as Huo Xunzhou took Lin Shanchu away. He then let out a long sigh of relief and turned to call Li MO to start playing cards.
Yun Yi was dealing with work in the study, so Yun Jin called Yun Wu over.
Lin Shanchu slept until evening.
Huo Xunzhou woke up first and was leaning against the headboard, looking at his phone.
“You’re awake.”
He put down his phone and patted her head.
Lin Shanchu sleepily got up from the bed and sat in a daze.
Huo Xunzhou got out of bed to get her clothes and put on her coat before pulling her out of bed.
“The sky is almost dark…” Lin Shanchu walked up to the window and looked up at the sky before glancing resentfully at Huo Xunzhou. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
Huo Xunzhou seemed to be in a good mood with gentle eyes. “It will be more tiring to stay up to see the New Year in.”
Lin Shanchu pouted and wondered how tiring it could be.
When she left her house earlier, she brought the wristwatches she had prepared for everyone.
Lin Shanchu could hear the voices coming from downstairs.
Everyone was chatting lively in the living room.
Lin Shanchu carried a large bag of gift boxes and handed them to everyone, including Li Mo.
Li MO took the gift box and said delightfully, “Thank you, Sister-in-law.”
Everyone happily open the gift box on the spot and put the wristwatch on. They even kept praising her for her good taste.
Lin Shanchu had the illusion that she had lived in the Yun family for a long time.
However, Huo Xunzhou was somewhat upset.
“What about mine?” His voice was a little lower than usual, as if he was a little disappointed.
Lin Shanchu spread her hands and looked innocent. “No more! I’ve given out all of them!”
Huo Xunzhou kept quiet and iust stared at her with his beautiful charminz
eyes, making Lin Shanchu feel guilty.
She reached into the pockets on both sides of her coat and took out an exquisite gift box.
“Didn’t you say you gave out all of them?” Huo Xunzhou sat up slowly with a smile.
Lin Shanchu said righteously, “Yeah, everyone else’s gift has been given out.”
The brand had recently released a set of New Year’s couple wristwatches. Lin Shanchu took a fancy to their festive color scheme at first glance.
Even though she had already given Huo Xunzhou a wristwatch, everyone else got a gift for the New Year, so her boyfriend had to get one too.
When Lin Shanchu opened the gift box, Huo Xunzhou already stretched out his wrist, indicating for her to put it on him.
After she put it on Huo Xunzhou, he put the ladies’ watch on her.
During the New Year’s Eve dinner, Yun Jin made a fuss about taking photos when everyone raised their glasses in celebration.
Yun Jin took a photo of everyone raising their glasses.
Everyone was wearing the wristwatches given by Lin Shanchu, and the whole family placed the glasses together neatly.
Yun Jin posted the photo on his WeChat Moments after he was done taking pictures. Then, Lin Shanchu stole the photo on his WeChat Moments and posted it on Weibo.
Half of the netizens praised the sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner and half of them praised the good-looking wristwatches.
The brand owner immediately showed up at the comments section to claim that those wristwatches were under their brand.
Lin Shanchu and the brand owner interacted for a while before putting down her phone..
