Chapter 51 - What Role Should I Take ?
" You better " still clinging on to Su Wan"s arm and ignoring his brothers pointed glares , Lin Chen continued with his cutesy actions . Humph , you all spent so many hours together with wife yet you get jealous the moment he got closer to his wife? Such an injustice !ƒ???????????. ?o?
Lin Jing and the others : you are the one inflicting injustice here ! We were working ! working ! not having a four on one with our wife , that got you so angry just because we left you alone .
Su Wan wasn"t aware of the sparks that were flying around in the air between the brothers . Instead she nodded her head and patted Lin Chen "s hand that was clutching her arm " don"t worry , I promise . " then she paused for a second and looked at Lin Chen who tilted his head and looked back at her , though Su Wan couldn"t put her finger on it , she knew that something was off about Lin Chen , usually the guy wasn"t this clingy , at first he was just a happy go lucky person , what happened to trigger this clinginess- Su Wan was no psychologist so she had no idea that generally people act all clingy because they are afraid to be left alone . They hold on to their loved ones by attracting their attention with either their rebellious actions or stickiness .
Since Lin Chen couldn"t really rebel against Su Wan , he could only act shamelessly and continue on clinging to her , so that she doesn"t forget him among his four brothers . At first he thought he could just make do with small affections but when he was left alone today , Lin Chen started over thinking , imagining a future where Su Wan would pay attention to only his brothers and not him because he wasn"t smart , strong , wise or talented compared to his brothers and the more he thought , the more he panicked . In the end he decided that he would fight for Su Wan"s affection in his own way , he could , so what if he wasn"t talented as long as he continued flaunting his existence Su Wan can"t just throw him out ? Can she , after all he too was her husband .
Su Wan didn"t know any of that , she just had a feeling that something was bothering Lin Chen , so she once again patted Lin Chen "s head and softly spoke " if you mind it so much, then I will go with you to the town as well , just don"t tell your brothers , it will be our little secret " Whatever , she will take it as him getting jealous of his brothers .
Since she spoke really softly neither of the Lin brothers could hear a thing except Lin Chen who suddenly felt a weigh lifting off his shoulders. He was afraid that Su Wan wouldn"t pay any attention to him after she sees his brothers excellent skills and talents however , his wife proved him wrong ! She still cared about him , just look him alone was given the chance to go to the town with her , not his brothers !
Lin Chen beamed and nodded his head smiling like his birthday came early "Then its a promise "
" En its a promise " agreed Su Wan .
Promise ? what promise ? Lin Jing whose hearing was better than his brothers could only hear the word "promise ", and his brows furrowed . He really didn"t want to get jealous of his younger brother but it was hard when his wife was paying so much attention to his younger brother without looking back at him .
He didn"t hate Lin Chen nor did he disliked the fact that Su Wan was paying attention to him what he was envious of was , how easily Lin Chen flirted with Su Wan . He was always smiling and his face or body didn"t have a hideous scar either , Lin Jing was feeling really depressed thinking about how to attract Su Wan"s attention .
Lin Chen was cute , Lin Yan acted hot and cold but still somehow managed to talk with Su Wan , Lin Rui was gentle and Lin Yu was pretty - and he , he was such a - such a - boring old man !
When these three words came in his mind , Lin Jing felt as if thunder had fallen on his body "boring " , he was boring ! No ! Never ! If he didn"t do a good job , he will be the last to have make Wan Wan his ! No !
Fl.u.s.tered Lin Jing hurried forward and stood beside Su Wan " Wan Wan , let"s go and plant these seeds ? "
When Lin Jing finished speaking he was stupified and so were the others , when have they seen Lin Jing trying to attract others attention ? And what was with that shy , fl.u.s.tered voice ?
Lin Rui blinked and he kept blinking on the other hand Lin Yu "s head ping ponged between Lin Jing and Lin Chen .
Acting cute was gone .
Acting shy was gone too .
What role was left for him to take ? His brothers were so unfair if they take such roles that suited him well what role should he take ? ( a big bad wolf )
Su Wan looked up at Lin Jing and inwardly laughed when she caught a glimpse of his reddened ears just look at this , her husband was getting jealous of his own brother ! hehe.
" Eldest brother , ahem , its going to rain soon . If we plant these seeds now it will be troublesome , we still haven"t fixed that thatched straw roof of that room " Lin Rui really didn"t want to parade on his brother"s enthusiasm but they really couldn"t sow these seeds and the soil was still not plowed .
Lin Jing who realized that he misspoke , flushed even red . He was already regretting his momentarily loss of composure .
Seeing Lin Jing blush , Su Wan laughed inwardly then she stretched her hand , got on her tippy toes and patted Lin Jing on the head too " Its good you are so hard working Jing ge , why don"t you go and rest for a bit ? then plow the land once you are done ? We will sow these seeds tomorrow "
Su Wan had given Lin Jing an excuse to leave and Lin Jing hurriedly took it . He nodded, or more like jerked his head and then walked inside the house with hurried , fl.u.s.tered steps .
Watching him act so cute , Su Wan really wanted to tease him but seeing how shy he was , she didn"t push him too much .
