"Sister, aren't you waiting for brother-in-law? No, aren't you waiting for brother?"
Lin Yanwan ignored him and instead pulled her sister's hand, walking even faster.
Watching his wife and sister-in-law leave quickly, Jiang Xia was dumbfounded. Don't forget there's someone else here! Take him with you!
"Mom, you go ahead and do your work, I'll be going now." Jiang Xia scratched her neck awkwardly.
"Get out of here, don't embarrass yourself in front of me."
Xia Shanshan's eyes twitched slightly. Quite a few people had seen what had just happened. Although it wasn't anything shameful or embarrassing, it was time for the children to get out of school, and it wasn't good to waste everyone's time.
"Alright, I'll get out of here right now." Jiang Xia turned and ran without hesitation.
Seeing her son's flustered appearance, Xia Shanshan couldn't help but laugh. He used to never come to the school to see her even once a year.
Now that I'm in a relationship, I still visit her at least once a month, even though my real purpose is to pick up my girlfriend's sister. But rounding it up, it still counts as visiting her.
So, it seems I should thank Yanwan instead?
◇
Jiang Xia ran after him, but was suddenly stopped by his wife who was standing under a tree.
"Brother-in-law, I knew you'd catch up!" Lin Xiaoman ran over and took his arm, calling out sweetly.
He was panting, so he gently tapped Xiaoman's head and grumbled, "You little rascal, you almost killed me today."
The sister-in-law covered her head in grievance: "Waaah, brother-in-law, Xiaoman didn't mean it."
"Okay, brother-in-law isn't mad at you. He knows you didn't do it on purpose."
Jiang Xia sighed. In the end, he had to blame himself. Xiao Man was still young and didn't understand the intricacies of things. If he hadn't made her call him brother-in-law, this wouldn't have happened.
"Hehehe, I knew my brother-in-law was the best!" Lin Xiaoman gently shook his hand and asked happily, "Brother-in-law, should I call you brother-in-law or brother from now on?"
“Of course you should call him brother!” Lin Yanwan suddenly interjected.
Too many misunderstandings have already arisen because of how she addresses him, and she doesn't want Xiaoman to foolishly call Jiang Xia "brother-in-law" in front of her parents again.
If that happened, she would really be so embarrassed that she would dig out a two-bedroom apartment with her toes.
Besides, the two aren't even married yet!
It's a bit early to call him brother-in-law now.
"Listen to your sister," Jiang Xia said helplessly, patting his sister-in-law's head.
If my mom knows, so be it. It's better than constantly reminding the old couple that their son is dating.
"Oh!"
"Xiaoman, do you want some ice cream? I'll buy it for you." He smiled slightly.
"want!"
"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Xia asked his wife.
Lin Yanwan thought for a moment and said, "How about Little Pudding? It's cheap and delicious."
It's really hot today. Jiangxia started sweating after just a short run.
He took his sister-in-law's hand and walked into a shop on the street. He spent one yuan to buy two small puddings, while Xiaoman waited for the shop assistant to make her ice cream.
Seeing the crispy ice cream cone filled with cream, my sister-in-law's eyes lit up. She held it in both hands and only licked it a little each time, her happiness clearly visible in her eyes.
"Is it tasty?"
"It's delicious, thank you, brother-in-law!"
"It's my brother," Lin Yanwan reminded him as she ate her little pudding.
“My sister’s parents aren’t here right now, and neither are my brother-in-law’s parents, so even if Xiaoman calls for her brother-in-law, no one will know.” Lin Xiaoman licked her ice cream, her tone very serious.
Jiang Xia secretly gave a thumbs up, suddenly realizing that treating her to ice cream was worthwhile; his sister-in-law did have a brain after all.
Lin Yanwan was speechless. She really wanted to say that precociousness is not something to be used for in this regard.
The two sisters held up a parasol, and Jiang Xia, eating pudding, no longer felt hot. The three of them slowly returned home, and Lin Xiaoman consciously went back to her room to do her homework. In the blink of an eye, only the couple remained in the living room.
"Alright, it's getting late, you should go back now," Lin Yanwan urged.
"Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?" Jiang Xia gulped down a large glass of water.
Lin Yanwan blushed and gently shook her head: "With you here, I can't concentrate on dubbing."
"Why didn't you just say I'd affect your work?" He leaned close to his wife with a sly grin. "Wow, I'm that charming, huh?"
"Shameless."
Lin Yanwan turned her head away and said something that didn't match her true feelings: "I'm just annoyed by seeing you wandering around in front of me."
He forced a smile and said, "Then I won't wander around. You do your thing, and I'll look after my people. That way, we won't bother each other."
"Who are you looking at?" she asked, her eyes widening.
"Of course I want to see my beautiful wife. Just looking at her back is enough to make me eat three bowls of rice!" Jiang Xia said seriously.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll hit you!" she said, feigning anger and raising her fist in threat.
"Go ahead and fight."
Jiang Xia grabbed her hand and kissed her delicate fist: "If you hit me, I'll kiss you."
Could you be any more shameless?
"sure."
He shamelessly pulled her into his arms and whispered against her face, "Baby, let's rest today."
"Don't you want cats and mice anymore?"
"Not today."
Anyway, voice acting is much more efficient than animation, so she doesn't need to exhaust herself like this.
"What kind of boss are you? Look at all those companies from my past life, which one of them didn't want its employees to work 996 or 007?"
Lin Yanwan muttered a few complaints, but then sat quietly in his lap, no longer struggling.
“I would never exploit anyone but you.” Jiang Xia took her hand and placed it on his face, whispering, “Didn’t Lao Wang and Shen Ying say that you are the boss’s wife of Qitian Animation?”
Her lips moved slightly, some words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say a word. She was just held quietly by Jiang Xia.
"Baby."
"what?"
I want to kiss you.
"No, Xiaoman is at home."
She hadn't forgotten the accident that happened in the kitchen last time, and she made a move to struggle up, but Jiang Xia held her wrist tightly. As a result, the two of them lost their balance and fell onto the sofa.
Jiang Xia was afraid she would get hurt, so he hugged her waist and twisted her hard, just like when the earthquake happened that day, reflexively using his own body to cushion her fall.
Lin Yanwan pinned him down, her hands instinctively wrapping around his neck, her hair almost completely obscuring half of his face.
Their eyes met, their warm breaths slapped against each other's faces, and their breathing gradually quickened.
Like two magnets of opposite poles, Jiang Xia closed his eyes and slowly approached, gently kissing her pink and supple lips.
