The female protagonist transmigrated into a novel she wrote herself, playing the role of a vixenish supporting character. In the book, she caused trouble until her death on the streets, and her act...
During the meal, besides the dishes that Li Zimu usually liked, everything on the table was Lin Wanwan's favorite food.
Lin Wanwan was a little surprised by the huge table full of dishes.
"Grandma, isn't this too much food?"
"Not much, I'm just happy today, these are all your and Zimu's favorite foods."
Lin Wanwan joked, "I wouldn't dare steal the spotlight from the pregnant woman today; Zimu is the star of the show."
Li Zimu waved his hand, "Wanwan is always the main character wherever she goes, while I can only be a supporting character."
Lin Wanwan glanced at her and said, "Everyone says pregnant women are prone to mood swings, and I think Zimu is already starting to show it. He's even jealous of me. Brother, you'd better try to appease him."
She took a sip of soup and continued, "She was making sarcastic remarks to me this morning, almost making me think my brother and godmother had mistreated her."
Li Zimu tightened his grip on his lap and immediately looked up at Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan was holding her breath all day and originally wanted to let it go, but who knew that things wouldn't calm down even during dinner.
Xu Zhang placed a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs on Lin Wanwan's plate. "I think it's not Zimu who's jealous, it's you, isn't it?"
Lin Wanwan understood perfectly well that she was trying to smooth things over, so she immediately went along with her.
"Yes, it's all my fault for being stingy. Don't blame me! Don't you know what kind of person I am? I love to argue and be unreasonable."
Gu Changfeng laughed heartily, "This child, he's always so funny when he talks, he's practically our little bundle of joy."
"See, it's still my godfather. There has to be someone in this family who likes me, right?"
Gu Bei laughed and scolded, "Isn't it enough that Lu Feng spoils you?"
Lin Wanwan said with a grin, "That won't do. My grandparents love me too. I have powerful backers. Don't mess with me, or I'll scold you too, right, Grandpa?"
Xu Zhe nodded, "Yes, don't bully my darling."
Qian Qian slapped him on the back. "What are you doing at your age? Zimu, the older your grandfather gets, the more like a playful old man he becomes. Don't be angry. He actually loves you all the most."
Li Zimu smirked and shook his head. "I know my grandmother."
When they left that evening, Gu Bei escorted them downstairs and casually gave her a hug.
Did your sister-in-law make you suffer today?
Lin Wanwan punched him with her elbow.
"You and your wife don't have any problems, do you?"
"No, before we got married, I thought she had a personality like yours—good and cheerful. But after we got married and lived together, I realized she's sometimes too sensitive. She overthinks even the smallest things. Sigh..."
Lin Wanwan turned to face him. "Did you do something wrong? You said a bunch of sarcastic things to me today, like how my mother-in-law is so good to me, that I don't have to worry about food or drink anymore, and how good Lu Feng is to me. Did you mistreat her, or did my godmother bully her? Why are you saying such sarcastic things to me?"
"It was my fault, and I apologize to you."
“Brother, how can the family survive if she keeps acting like this? Look, Grandpa made a joke today, and Grandma had to rush to explain. Seeing how carefully Grandma and Godmother were being treated, it makes me so angry.”
Gu Bei sighed, "I know, it's been like this for a long time. I've tried to persuade Zimu, but every time she says I'm not on her side. I'm really wronged."
"You know, what do you know? All you men know is how to smooth things over."
"My little darling, I know you've been upset today. I'm sorry, brother was wrong."
Lin Wanwan stared at him without saying a word, "Let's live separately. The villa area in my development is finished, my godparents have retired, and my maternal grandparents are so old, they should be thinking about enjoying their retirement. It's just the two of you living in this house, and we can hire a housekeeper to take care of you. Is that okay?"
Gu Bei thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, but this house was a gift from you. As your older brother, I can't just shamelessly ask for another house from you."
Lin Wanwan glared at him. "What nonsense are you talking about? She's my mom too. I've called her Mom and Dad. I'm filial to them."
"Let me discuss it with my parents."
"You don't need to discuss it with me. I'll discuss it with them myself. What can you possibly come up with with that mouth of yours? Go and appease your wife. If I argue with her for a while today, she'll definitely give me a hard time. You'll have to appease her yourself."
"As expected of my own sister, please don't be angry with me about this."
"You don't need to plead for your wife. I'm not that petty. I'll settle scores on the spot. Just don't feel bad about it."
Gu Bei patted her head, "I know your personality too well, go back now."
Lin Wanwan nodded and followed Lu Feng into the car.
"You can go back now. I'll find someone to renovate the house over there first. I'll talk to Grandpa and Grandma about it when I have time."
"Okay, drive carefully."
Lin Wanwan sighed as she sat in the passenger seat, "Zimu wasn't like this before. I used to think we had similar personalities, but how did things turn out like this?"
Lu Feng turned his head to look at her, "You two grew up in different environments, so your personalities are bound to be different. You know about her family situation, so it's understandable that she's sensitive. My wife is tolerant and generous, and she won't get angry over these things."
Lin Wanwan tilted her head and looked at him with amusement, "Are you just trying to comfort me?"
"Yes, my wife was wronged today, so of course I have to comfort her."
Lin Wanwan said irritably, "I'm not a magnanimous person. It's one thing to tease me in the past, but to come to me so early in the morning and make sarcastic remarks is something I don't owe her."
Lu Feng chuckled lightly, "It was her fault, but have you thought about what happened with your godmother?"
"Well, it's not a long-term solution for them to stay together all the time. Grandpa and Grandma are getting on in years, and I can't bear to see them like this."
"My wife is still the kindest."
"Why are you being so sweet today? Did you eat candy while working overtime?"
Lu Feng opened the car door for her. "No, I always do that."
"Come in, come in. I'm so tired today. I've been listening to sour things all day. I'm exhausted."
