Chapter 667: It’s Delightful to Be Naughty
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Ye Qiuqiu married into the Chen family, the family lived quite harmoniously. Chen Haobo doted on her, her father-in-law wasn’t meddlesome, and her mother-in-law was a little careless but treated her well.
However, after the child was born, Ye Qiuqiu saw that her father-in-law didn’t bother about anything and her mother-in-law’s stubborn old ways were exposed. She refused to change even after they spoke to her. The mindset that had been formed over decades could not be changed at all.
As a result, there was a huge conflict between the two generations on the issue of child-rearing.
It had only been a month, but Ye Qiuqiu was already feeling uncomfortable. Fortunately, Chen Haobo was on her side. Many times, he would come forward to refute his mum’s ridiculous parenting style.
Ye Qiuqiu didn’t know if every married woman would experience this kind of trouble, or if she was unlucky enough to meet someone with Mrs. Chen’s personality.
Ye Qiuqiu touched her daughter’s sleeping face and thought to herself that it was alright. When their daughter grew up, these conflicts wouldn’t exist anymore, right?
All was silent.
The lights in the city were gradually extinguished in the middle of the night. There was a bright moon in the sky, and a few stars sparsely dotted it.
Dawn gradually broke in the eastern sky, and the earth was hazy.
Wen Yanqing opened his eyes and woke up when a ray of morning light shone into the room through a gap in the curtains.
He propped himself up and looked around the room. He unconsciously tightened his grip on the bedsheet and then released it. He looked at the beam of light for a long time before reaching out to touch Lin Gantang beside him, leaning over to kiss her.
Lin Gantang was awakened by a clattering sound. When she saw that there was no one beside her, she realized that Wen Yanqing might be in the bathroom and hurriedly ran over barefooted.
“Yanqing,” she called out.
She rushed to the bathroom, which made Wen Yanqing’s depressed mood quickly dissipate. He smiled as usual. “It’s nothing. I accidentally knocked over a cup. Sorry for disturbing you.”
Lin Gantang bent down to pick the cup up.
She was still a little sleepy. She leaned against the door and rubbed her eyes. When she came back to her senses, she picked up a toothbrush and squeezed the toothpaste for both of them before handing Wen Yanqing’s to him.
Wen Yanqing casually picked up the cup.
“That’s the wrong one. The pink one is mine, yours is next to it,” said Lin Gantang.
Wen Yanqing’s hand paused for a moment. Then, he continued to use it. He smiled and said, “I just want to use yours. I even ate the same cherry. Now, you despise me?”
Of course not. It was just a cup. Lin Gantang let him be.
She stretched lazily and said, “Anyway, I have nothing to do today. Let’s go to my dad’s place earlier and steal a few roses to make a bath.”
It was not just a few. Wen Yanqing could almost imagine Mr. Lin chasing after Lin Gantang with a feather duster.
He was amused, his originally low mood gone. “I’ll get someone to send some roses over every day.”
“No, I like to pick them myself.”
“Then I’ll ask the servants to change the lawn behind the courtyard into rose plants.”
“Is it roses I like?” Lin Gantang waved her hand. “It’s my dad’s roses I like.”
In short, she was very happy to be mischievous in front of Mr. Lin.
Wen Yanqing could not help but laugh.
When it was about time, the two of them set off for the Lin residence.
Lin Gantang thought that the two of them had arrived quite early, but she didn’t expect that someone else had arrived even earlier.
She held Wen Yanqing’s hand and entered the main door. They came across Lin Mingqing and his wife, who were coming out. Upon seeing them, he said, “Gantang, Mr. Wen, you’re back?”
Lin Mingqing’s smile was genuine. “Your dad is inside. Go in quickly. Uncle will go back first. You can have fun with your Brother Ming when you have time.”
Lin Jingming rarely came to the Lin family’s house ever since he was in school. After starting work, he had even less time. It was rare to see him today.
“Gantang.” Lin Jingming nodded and greeted her.
After the three of them left, Wen Yanqing tilted his head and said, “You have quite a lot of brothers.”
“I will only acknowledge my own brother.”
