Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 438 – Idiot

Chapter 438: Idiot

“Do you not recognize me, sister-in-law?” said Lu Qin, standing with one hand in the pocket of his trousers with an air of conceited coolness. In the past, Lu Qin was perfect in Yan Huan’s eyes, and even his bullshit would seem well-formed to her. However, once he showed his true colors, Yan Huan couldn’t decide between scratching his face or keeping her hands clean.

Yan Huan looked up with an innocent look.

“Who’s this idiot?”

Lu Yi paused, and Lu Qin’s smile stiffened.

Idiot. Idiot! She dared to call him an idiot?!

“He’s not an idiot. He’s the son of my second uncle, Lu Qin,” said Lu Yi. There seemed to be nothing wrong with his answer, but repeating the word idiot was no doubt a stab at Lu Qin’s pride.

“Is that so? Then why is he giving me that silly grin?” said Yan Huan unhappily. What kind of person drools at his sister-in-law?

“I know I’m pretty, but take note that I’m already taken,” said Yan Huan. A friend’s wife is not to be teased, much less a sister-in-law.

Lu Yi’s eyes darkened at those words.

“You best watch yourself, Lu Qin.”

Lu Qin curved his frozen lips upwards with awkward difficulty.

“I’m sorry, brother, but I didn’t mean ill. I have encountered sister-in-law a few times in the past, so I thought she might have some recollection of me despite us not having cooperated in the past.”

“Doesn’t ring a bell,” Yan Huan cut him short. “I only remember good-looking men.”

Lu Qin couldn’t maintain his smile any longer. Even if his temper was good, those words would have put him on the verge of exploding. Yan Huan had the ability to make someone angry to the point of collapsing, and she wasn’t planning on stopping until she made Lu Qin puke blood.

Lu Qin sneered.

“I guess my sister-in-law has a bad memory. I’ll be excusing myself if there’s nothing else,” he turned and walked off before Lu Yi could reply, his footsteps so heavy that it was as though he wanted to crush them with it. However, he was too light, too insignificant to do so.

“You don’t like him?” asked Lu Qin, looking below at her pretty face. Yan Huan had shown her dislike for someone this bluntly; she usually got closer to people she liked and strayed away from people she disliked, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

It was rare for her to show her detest this bluntly.

So blunt that it didn’t give Lu Qin the option to walk away with dignity intact.

It’s important to not go overboard, Yan Huan knew. She wasn’t well-educated, never read many books, or heard many wise sayings, but she had a good sense of where the line was.

She had wanted to make her dislike for Lu Qin known.

If Lu Yi remembered correctly, this was the first time Yan Huan met Lu Qin face-to-face (within the Lu Family, of course). Whether they met before that, Lu Yi didn’t know since Yan Huan never mentioned it.

Yan Huan hugged Lu Yi’s elbow tightly and pouted.

“He’s up to no good. I saw him eyeing me up in the past. My status probably seemed attractive to him. I was, after all, making quite a killing at that time.”

“This type of person… I see greed and conspiracies in his eyes, but not an ounce of love. His hunger for power has devoured his capability to love. I would sooner believe a pig climbing a tree than him having a heart that can love.”

Lu Yi lowered his head and pulled her in closer by the shoulders. He said nothing, but there was unhappiness in his dark, gloomy eyes as he looked in Lu Qin’s direction.

His pretty lips were primed coldly.

Lu Qin was every bit the person Yan Huan had described him to be.

“Mom, Dad, we are here,” said Lu Yi as he walked into the living room, where Ye Shuyun and Lu Jin happened to be present.

The Lu Family had a large mansion, and one part of the mansion belonged to Lu Qin and his mother. Even though Lu Qin’s father wasn’t around anymore, Lu Yi and his family had not once bullied Lu Qin and his mother. On the other hand, Lu Qin and his mother had gone to every length to bully Lu Yi and his family, especially after Lu Jin’s death. Without the man of the family, Lu Yi and Ye Shuyun’s days were harder than what normal people could tolerate. Qin Xiaoyue often used Lu Jin’s death to taunt Ye Shuyun too. It’s a miracle that Ye Shuyun didn’t lose her marbles at that time.

There wasn’t much interaction between the two families, who each took up a segment of the mansion. That’s why Lu Qin’s appearance must have been intentional.

“You are here,” said Ye Shuyun, getting up. Ignoring her son, she quickly latched herself onto Yan Huan and squeezed her cheeks. “Oh my, my Huanhuan has gotten even prettier! Lu Jin, can you tell me why Huanhuan is so pretty? In comparison, our son is becoming more and more like a brute by the day. How embarrassing!”

“Aren’t I a brute too?” said Lu Jin, lifting his head up from the papers. If his son was no longer young and handsome, what about him?

“Why, yes you are!” jested Ye Shuyun. “No one ever looks you a second time, no? I was the only one that fell for you. Back in my days, I was young and pretty like Huanhuan too. How did I fall for you?”

“Clearly because I was manly,” said Lu Jin. In front of his men, Lu Jin was insurmountable like a tall mountain, but he was powerless before Ye Shuyun.

People from the Lu Family (Lu Jin and Lu Yi) always doted on their wives.

Yan Huan sneakily made her way beside Lu Yi, so that she wouldn’t get involved in their lover’s quarrel. It’s always a good idea to steer clear of such situations.

Lu Jin and Ye Shuyun bantered on, their words harsh but humorous. It’s not hard to tell that they love each other a lot. If one passed away, the other would definitely die of the illness known as lovesickness.

Lu Jin was fond of his daughter-in-law and treated her very well. In her previous life, Yan Huan always felt like Lu Jin was a difficult person since he had the same cold face as Lu Yi, and she hated them both. She was even happier when Lu Jin died, saying things like ‘Good riddance’.

How harsh these words were to a widow who lost her husband and a son who lost his father. How could she be so wicked? She was an orphan too. She probably deserved what she suffered in her previous life. Drained dry.

“What’s wrong?” asked Lu Yi when he saw her eyes reddening. He was worried that she felt unwell.
