Chapter 121 Brother-in-law Wen Ruan was embarrassed and at a loss for what to do, while Wen Han hid in a corner…
"Choose the mango one."
“Then I’ll eat the same thing as you.” Fang Songxia scanned the code, and the two rested for a while before continuing.
I really don't know what's so interesting about a city wall; why are there so many people?
They came here to pick up trash as part of their holiday practice.
"Are you blind? There's a trash can right next to you, why did you throw it on the ground!" Wen Han waved the trash can, and the man who threw the plastic bag on the ground looked embarrassed and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
They didn't work for long; it was just for taking a photo and getting a stamp anyway. Wen Han yawned: "Where are you planning to go for summer vacation?"
"We're not going out this time," Fang Songxia said. "Xingyan is terminating his contract with the company."
"Wow," Wen Han said, "Did he still work in the entertainment industry after terminating his contract?"
"No, I'm prepared to be an ordinary person."
Fang Songxia and Ming Xingyan are really lucky; they weren't exposed. Given how sweet they are, and Fang Songxia's overt and covert displays of affection, if fans found out, they'd be torn to shreds. Wen Han asked curiously, "So what's he planning to do after terminating his contract?"
"Go to college."
Wen Han nodded. It wouldn't be bad to experience university life.
Fang Songxia's conversation drifted further and further, even mentioning their previous trip. He asked, "Hey, what about Jingyu? Wasn't he supposed to come back during the summer vacation? Why are you mentioning him this time?"
Jingyu is almost a senior in college and has a lot on his plate. He won't be able to go back to Linjin for the summer vacation. Wen Han didn't have time to sigh, as he was also in a real bind.
The incident started recently when Wen Han went home to get some of Fei Nai'er's things. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Wen Ruo and Wen Qingke sitting at the table, which was empty. The two of them were just sitting there.
That's weird, what are you doing?
When Wen Qingke saw Wen Han return, his expression immediately became tense.
Wen Han pretended to go to her room to pack her clothes, but pressed her ear against the door.
"Wen Ruo, is there really no other way?" Wen Qingke whispered, "We can't afford to offend them..."
Did Wen Ruo offend someone? Wen Han raised an eyebrow and continued eavesdropping.
Wen Ruo said coldly, "If it really doesn't work out, I'll drop out of school."
Dropping out of school! Who did they offend? How could someone have such power that they forced Wen Ruo to consider dropping out?
Wen Han felt like a million ants were crawling inside him. Of course, he knew Wen Ruo would never tell him, so he glanced at his phone, since Wen Ruo still had to go to work.
Sure enough, Wen Ruo left in less than half an hour. Wen Han then strolled out leisurely. Seeing that he didn't seem to be in a hurry to go back to school, Wen Qingke said, "Hanhan, why don't you have dinner at home? What would you like to eat?"
"Whatever, I'm not hungry." Wen Han poured herself a glass of water. "What's wrong with Wen Ruo?"
"nothing."
Judging from his evasive manner, something's definitely up. Wen Han said, "Are you sure? Recently, someone came directly to the school to find me. Otherwise, why would I come back?"
"What?" Wen Qingke took the bait immediately, just as expected. "Didn't you say you wouldn't cause trouble for us? Why are you going back on your word!"
Wen Han was practically dying of laughter, but he still pretended to be very serious: "What exactly happened!"
After being coaxed by Wen Han, Wen Qingke stammered out all the recent events.
It turns out that Wen Ruo went to the supermarket to run errands for the owner and caught the eye of a wealthy Omega. The man's family was influential, and when Wen Ruo kept rejecting him, he became angry and threatened her with his family.
"What?!" Wen Han, as "family," was indignant. They were using him as part of a play again. Why didn't that rich Omega think of discussing it with him? Maybe he could have sold Wen Ruo out.
"Why should I?" Even if that Omega was willing to pay, Wen Han wouldn't agree. How could that brat Wen Ruo be so lucky to be chosen by a rich and beautiful Omega?
Wen Qingke said with a worried look, "Yes, our Wen Ruo is an Alpha after all."
Wen Han: "?"
"No," Wen Han said, "I don't understand what you're saying. Alphas aren't with Omegas anymore?"
"No, it's just... that Omega is a bit special."
"System, what is he saying?" Wen Han lost her patience. "Could it be that the Omega has a contagious disease?"
"Host! I just checked."
"How so?"
“He is a bit special,” the system said. “That Omega is the one above him.”
"Huh?" Wen Han suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand."
O betting A? Wen Han was suddenly willing to let her younger brother live a life of luxury, after all, she was a kind and good older brother, and it had nothing to do with money.
*
That Omega was named Mo Ting. Wen Han thought he was the kind of Omega who was very tall and imposing, but he actually looked very much like the stereotype, appearing very quiet.
"Hello." Mo Ting smiled sweetly. "You are Wen Ruo's brother, right? Then you are my brother too. Hello, brother."
Wen Han felt a little uncomfortable, as the other person kept using the formal "you" (您), even though they were about the same age. Wen Han said somewhat embarrassedly, "Don't use 'you' (您), it's too polite."
Mo Ting seemed so polite, which made Wen Han feel even more that Wen Ruo was ungrateful.
"Host, be careful!" the system warned hastily. "Don't be fooled by his appearance. Don't you remember how Wen Ruo was driven to the point of wanting to drop out of school by him? Are you worried they'll cause trouble for your family?"
Almost forgot about that, Wen Han coughed and cautiously probed, "By the way, what's going on between you and Wen Ruo? I think he's quite afraid of you."
Upon hearing Wen Han's words, Mo Ting's eyes immediately filled with tears. The tears startled Wen Han, who quickly handed him a tissue: "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
“I didn’t mean it,” Mo Ting said. “I was just angry that he kept rejecting me, so I said that in a fit of anger.”
"Oh, I see." Wen Han nodded. "I see."
The system said quietly, "Host, why don't you ask him exactly what he did?"
"It's just a few words, there's no need for such a big reaction," Wen Han said. "Is there something else?"
Mo Ting wiped away her tears: "I often see him walking with an Omega, chatting and laughing."
"You." Wen Han sat up straight, alert. "What did you do to that Omega?"
"I only had someone threaten him a few times, I didn't lay a hand on him," Mo Ting said innocently. "I only found out later that he was Wen Ruo's brother."
Wen Ruo's brother, is he referring to Wen Ruan?!
Wen Han coughed. It's better to sacrifice Wen Ruo to protect everyone else, given this destabilizing factor in society.
“Actually, your line of thinking isn’t entirely wrong.” Seeing that Mo Ting was staring at him intently, Wen Han stopped talking and instead picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"Does brother like going on beach vacations?" Mo Ting waved his hand and laughed, "I have a small house there, which is quite convenient when I travel..."
A subordinate handed Wen Han a photo, and his eyes widened in shock. "My God, a three-story villa!" He was absolutely smitten with his brother-in-law, Mo Ting.
He betrayed Wen Ruo without hesitation: "Wen Ruo is someone who responds to kindness but not force."
Mo Ting immediately replied, "So I should soften my stance, right?"
“No,” Wen Han said. “He’s only responsive to gentle persuasion, but once he’s not going to listen to force, he just won’t listen. No matter how nice you are, it won’t work. So I advise you to be firmer. Actually, threatening him with his family might work.”
“Hmm…” Mo Ting frowned, and Wen Han continued to offer him advice, “You can threaten him with his father and his Omega brother, and he will obediently listen to you.”
"Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Wen Han said earnestly. "But I have another piece of advice for you: don't go too far, or Wen Ruozhen might be determined to deal with you. Also, you can't be too careful with Alpha sons-in-law. As an Omega from a good family like you, you must not give power to your son-in-law for the sake of love. What if he rebels one day?"
Although Wen Han was Wen Ruo's brother, he was only thinking of himself. Mo Ting was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears: "Brother, thank you. I know what to do now."
Under Wen Han and Mo Ting's planning, the two agreed to stage a play, which was scheduled for the Mid-Autumn Festival next semester.
——
Wen Qingke was surprised that Wen Han came back for the Mid-Autumn Festival, because Wen Han should be very busy as a senior in college.
Wen Ruo had no idea what was going to happen, but he felt that Wen Han seemed a little strange today.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Wen Han cracked her knuckles: "Actually, there's something I haven't told you."
"What?"
“I kept one of your gold bracelets for myself.”
Actually, it was a spur-of-the-moment decision by her mother. She took Wen Han shopping and was tricked into going into a gold jewelry store by the salesperson. At that time, gold was only a little over two hundred yuan per gram.
The salesperson's pitch was incredibly persuasive. My mother originally wanted to buy a gold necklace because she thought thick gold bracelets looked tacky, and that young people would definitely prefer diamond bracelets. But the salesperson kept talking about tradition and how gold holds its value, so she couldn't resist and bought two 50g gold bracelets.
When she got back, she thought it was too tacky and didn't want to wear it. Wen Han asked her why she bought it but didn't wear it, so she made an excuse: "This is for you and Wen Ruo's future partners. Of course, Mom will save it for you."
Wen Han was young at the time, so she naturally believed it.
To prevent her family from finding out that she had impulsively bought two large gold bracelets, she asked Wen Han to keep it a secret.
Wen Han took out the gold bracelet from the small cabinet, which she had kept hidden from her family. Originally, she planned to keep both bracelets for herself, but now she thought that since it was her mother's wish, it would be better to give them to Wen Ruo. After all, it wouldn't end up on Wen Ruo's wrist anyway, and Mo Ting was going to give her a seaside villa, so she had to give him something in return.
Wen Ruo asked in surprise, "Why did you suddenly give me this?"
"What if," Wen Han said somewhat guiltily, "you're getting married soon?"
"How could that be?"
Nevertheless, it would be a lie to say that Wen Ruo was not moved. Just as he was about to speak, someone knocked on the door.
"Huh?" Wen Qingke asked in surprise, "Who knocks on someone else's door on the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Wen Ruan went to open the door, and the room was immediately filled with men in black.
"Ah! What are you going to do?"
When Wen Ruo saw Mo Ting, her face turned pale. Although Mo Ting was somewhat prepared, he still felt bad seeing Wen Ruo like this, and said with tears in his eyes, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Yes, yes, that's so rude." Wen Han asked, "Wen Ruo, is this your friend?"
Wen Ruo coldly replied, "No."
“Of course we’re not friends.” Mo Ting grasped Wen Ruo’s arm. “I’ve thought it through. If I want to be good to you, I should be good to your family too, right?”
Wen Ruo pursed his lips and remained silent. Mo Ting stared at him with his dark eyes for a few seconds: "Wen Ruo, can't you speak properly? Don't make me angry."
Wen Han said, "Let's talk this out. Come, sit down."
He quickly ran to close the door. Wen Ruan was still in shock. Looking at the room full of men in black, he instinctively wanted to call the police, but Wen Han had already thrown his phone into the sofa cushions.
Wen Qingke was shivering, and Mo Ting asked with concern, "Dad, are you cold? Do you want to turn on the air conditioner?"
"No...no..."
"I'm sorry," Mo Ting smiled at Wen Ruan. "I didn't mean it last time, but you don't seem to be Wen Ruo's biological brother. If you're not blood brothers, it's best for Alphas and Omegas to keep their distance, right?"
Wen Ruan was so embarrassed she didn't know what to do, while Wen Han, hiding in the corner, was practically bursting with laughter.
"I heard you're a medical student?" Mo Ting said. "I know the principal of that school; he's a friend of my father's."
Wen Ruo gritted her teeth and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Why are you angry? I just thought of mentioning it." Mo Ting frowned slightly. "You're being too sensitive."
“Oh, I get it.” Wen Han jumped out. “This is my brother-in-law, right? Wen Ruo, you really are something, why didn’t you introduce him to the family earlier?”
Wen Han took out the gold bracelet: "This was prepared by my family for Wen Ruo's boyfriend. Since you're here, please don't look down on it, as our family isn't well-off."
"Is this for me?" Mo Ting asked in surprise. "Wen Ruo, I will keep it safe."
"Wen Han, you!"
When Wen Han saw her mother's bracelet, she felt a little guilty, but not much. She could only apologize in her heart, "Mom, I've sent Wen Ruo to enjoy a life of luxury!"
The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner table turned into this awkward scene. Mo Ting sat next to Wen Ruo, while several men in black stood in the house, creating an unusually eerie atmosphere.
Seeing that Mo Ting looked very happy, Wen Ruo said, "This is my home."
“This isn’t your home,” Mo Ting said innocently. “Isn’t your house rented? Once you move into our house, that will be your home.”
That was amazing! Wen Han picked up a piece of braised pork. I wish Jing Yu were here.
