Watching the carriage slowly depart, a hint of gloom appeared on Shi Kun's handsome face. His hands, tucked into his sleeves, clenched into fists. "Chu Chuyan, one day I will have you completely."
His change in expression did not escape the notice of the surrounding fans, who couldn't help but whisper among themselves again.
"That guy surnamed Chu is so disrespectful to Brother Shi, he's so arrogant."
"If you're that beautiful, you can be just as willful."
"Even if I'm that beautiful, I wouldn't treat Brother Shi like that, hmph."
"Exactly, what's Miss Chu so smug about? She still ended up with a useless husband. I may not be as good as her in other aspects, but my future husband will definitely be better than hers."
Of course, there were also weak voices pointing out: "Young Master Shi's gaze just now was terrifying..."
However, he was immediately overwhelmed by other supporters: "What do you know? That's called a charming and arrogant aura. Only Brother Shi has that unique temperament!"
At this moment, Chu Chuyan, who was in the carriage, felt extremely uncomfortable under Zu An's direct gaze and couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at?"
Zuan laughed and said, "Because you're beautiful, honey. I'm finding myself liking you more and more."
Chu Huanzhao, who was standing to the side, immediately became dissatisfied: "Hey, hey, there are children here. You two should be more mindful of your behavior."
Zuan was speechless. Although his sister-in-law was indeed young, she couldn't possibly be related to a child.
At this moment, Chu Chuyan said, "Don't misunderstand. I refused the young master of the Shi family just now not because of you, but simply because I didn't want to have anything to do with the Shi family."
Zuan said with a grin, "No matter the reason, I'm still quite happy that you rejected him."
Chu Chuyan's breath hitched, feeling that the other person hadn't understood her meaning. After thinking for a moment, she decided to make things clear: "Although I claim to be your wife in public, we both know what this marriage is all about. I can't fulfill the responsibilities of a real wife, so I don't want you to get too deeply involved, lest you get hurt even more in the future."
Chu Huanzhao blinked, suddenly feeling sorry for her brother-in-law. Although everyone had their own guesses before, guessing was one thing, but it was another thing for her sister to say it out loud. Now, she wondered how heartbroken her brother-in-law must be.
To everyone's surprise, Zu An's expression remained unchanged: "I know, but my liking you is my own business, and it has nothing to do with whether you like me or not. Besides, maybe you'll like me in the future too."
Chu Chuyan shook her head: "There's absolutely no way that's possible."
Zuan shrugged, unconcerned: "Since you've put it that way, I have to ask you one thing clearly: if you don't want to fulfill your duties as a wife, do you mind if I go find other women?"
Chu Huanzhao, who was standing to the side, was still feeling sorry for him when he was asked such a question. His eyes widened immediately, and he thought to himself, "This stinky brother-in-law, my sister will definitely teach you a lesson!"
Chu Chuyan was also taken aback, clearly surprised by the question, but she still subconsciously replied, "Of course I don't mind, but you..."
Her gaze shifted to his lower abdomen, but since her younger sister was still in the car, she couldn't say anything.
"Don't worry about that, I'll recover soon," Zu'an assured, patting his chest. Although he wasn't entirely confident about finding the Vanishing Lotus, what man wouldn't try to impress a woman?
Chu Chuyan frowned but said nothing, assuming that he was simply unwilling to accept the fact and was numbing himself.
Chu, standing to the side, had her mouth agape. What kind of outrageous things were her brother-in-law and sister saying? It was already outrageous enough that her brother-in-law had directly asked her if she minded him finding another woman, but what was even more outrageous was that her sister not only wasn't angry, but actually answered that she didn't mind!
Sister, you have no idea how much better your husband is than you imagine. Once the restrictions are lifted, those slutty women out there will definitely snatch him away.
No, I have to help my sister keep a close eye on things; no matter how good the opportunity is, it can't go to outsiders.
The three people in the carriage each had their own thoughts. Before long, they arrived outside the academy. Because of the academy's rules, the children of different families were not allowed to bring their carriages or other personal belongings into the school, so everyone got off at the gate.
Upon seeing Chu Chuyan's appearance, gasps of surprise rang out from the crowd. Clearly, it was rare to see this number one beauty in the school, and everyone was quite lucky today.
However, seeing Zuan get off the same carriage, and thinking that he not only shared a carriage with his goddess, but also lived in the same house and slept in the same bed, everyone couldn't help but feel envious.
"What a coincidence, to run into Miss Chu here again." A slightly familiar voice rang out.
Zuan looked back and saw Shi Kun standing not far away, wearing what he thought was a handsome smile, which was really quite annoying.

I haven't had insomnia in a long time, but last night I couldn't sleep at all. I finally managed to fall asleep this morning, but I was quickly woken up by a barrage of WeChat notifications. It was so difficult!
