Chapter 14: My Wife, Your Daughter-in-Law

Translator: Vicky_ Editor: Vicky_

Anran told Su Yicheng her address. On the entire way home, the atmosphere in the car was strange. Lin Xiaofen leaned on Gu Hengwen’s shoulder, her eyes shut and her mouth tightly pursed. Carefully looking at her, she seemed to be trembling a little, as if she were suppressing the emotions in her heart. On the other side, Gu Hengwen was expressionless, and he tightly held his wife, not saying anything.

Halfway through the ride, Anran was unable to restrain herself and asked, “Mom… Mom, do you know that person?” In reality, Anran already knew the answer without her responding because their actions confirmed it.

Lin Xiaofen’s originally shut eyes opened. After a while, she closed them again, and she said, without any energy in her tone, “No.”

When she saw this, Anran no longer asked anything. She turned around and looked out of the window at the streetscape that was rushing past them, her train of thoughts also flying.

When they arrived at the Gu residence, Gu Hengwen supported Lin Xiaofen upstairs. Originally, Su Yicheng was prepared to go into the house as well, however, when he got out of the car, his phone once again rang with a call from home. It was a call from his mother. He had initially said that he was going to return today. However, he did not return even now. His mother was furious.

Anran looked at him and said, “You can head home first if there is something you need to do. You don’t need to come up.”

Su Yicheng looked at his phone and nodded. Before he left, he said, “If you need anything, call me.”

Anran nodded, indicating that she understood. She was a little worried. She had never seen her mother act like this before.

Su Yicheng looked at her. He walked up to embrace her and said, “Head on up. I’ll call you tomorrow.”

Anran looked at him in shock. She nodded and turned around to go into the house.

When Anran walked up, Lin Xiaofen had already gone to bed. Anran quietly walked in and saw Gu Hengwen carefully tucking her in.

“Dad,” Anran called in a soft voice.

......

Gu Hengwen turned around, reaching out his hand and making the action of telling her to be quiet. Then, he turned around and brought Anran out.

In the living room, Anran looked at her father and said, “Dad, Mom knows that man, right?”

Gu Hengwen looked at her and said, “Anran, there are some things that your mom and I don’t want to tell you because those things are too painful and unhappy. Your mom and I don’t want you to live in unhappiness; do you understand?”

“Dad…” Anran looked at him.

“In the future, don’t ask things like this, especially not in front of your mom. Some things are injuries. An injury does not disappear with time. If you ask her again, you are only reminding her how painful and deep her injury was at the time,” Gu Hengwen said, patting her hand.

Anran nodded and no longer asked anything else. Anran did not sleep much on this night. She knew that her father was sitting alone in the living room for the entire night. She didn’t know what kind of grudges and feelings her mom had with that man. However, these things were not important. She would not ask any further questions. She would wait until her mother forgot about the injury and pain in her chest.

When Su Yicheng returned to the Military District Compound, Qin Yun was sitting in the living room, her face incredibly ugly. Su Yicheng walked in from outside, rubbing his nose, and said, “Mom, you’re still not asleep.”

Qin Yun didn’t even look at him and said in a cold voice, “So you still know that I am your mom? I thought that you had entirely forgotten who gave birth to you.”

Su Yicheng smiled and did not follow her words. He knew that she was still angry and that if he added fuel to the fire, it would be a dead end. He took off his coat and sat in front of her. He picked up the military publications on the table and flipped through it, not saying anything.

When she saw that he was not speaking, Qin Yun could not contain herself. She turned around and snatched the publication from his hand, saying, with residual anger, “I’m talking to you. What kind of attitude is this?”

Upon hearing this, Su Yicheng sat up straight and calmly looked into her eyes.

Qin Yun paused, thinking that he was going to say something. However, he didn’t say anything, and, after waiting for a long time, she couldn’t refrain from asking, “What are you doing?”

“Ahem.” Su Yicheng softly coughed and then said, in a serious attitude, “Humbly listening to mother’s instructions.”

Qin Yun angrily, yet laughingly slapped her son. “F*ck off. You’re not serious at all. Huh, humbling listening to my instructions. It’ll be good if you really listen to me.”

Su Yicheng smiled and hugged his mother’s shoulders, saying, “I really was planning to eat dinner at home tonight. However, something suddenly happened and I couldn’t leave.”

“Stop dodging me. You don’t even come home once a month. Which time didn’t you say that you were unable to leave because something suddenly came up?” Qin Yun angrily said.

Su Yicheng rubbed his nose, not saying anything. Upon careful consideration, it was certainly like that!

“You can’t say it, right?” Qin Yun looked at him and said, with a cold smile.

Su Yicheng was in the wrong, and he quickly switched topics, asking, “Where’s Father and Grandfather? Are they asleep?”

“Your grandfather’s already asleep. Your father is in the study. Originally, they were happily saying that they would wait for you to come home and have dinner together. You sure have it well. You just called and said that you weren’t returning and caused your grandfather to be unhappy throughout the entire meal,” Qin Yun grumbled.

Upon hearing this, Su Yicheng stood up. “I’ll go see Grandfather and Father.” As he spoke, he walked toward the study.

“Hey, wait.” When she saw that he was leaving, Qin Yun stopped him and said, “Sit down first. I have things to say to you.”

“What?” Su Yicheng asked. There was a bad premonition in his heart.

“The wife of the Chief of Staff in the military specifically came over yesterday, saying that she wanted to introduce someone to you. The woman is a researcher that she is supervising. She is beautiful and clean. When can you arrange a time to go meet the woman and have a meal with her?” Qin Yun quickly asked.

Su Yicheng sighed. Just as he expected. Every time he came back, his mother always had a person to introduce to him. She repeatedly did this, and it made him afraid to come back.

“How is it? Why don’t I arrange a time for you and the woman?” Qin Yun directly asked.

“Don’t, Mom.” Su Yicheng was really a bit scared of his mom. He quickly shook his head and said, “Don’t worry about my wedding and don’t keep introducing women. Tomorrow, I have to go to City S and will probably be back the day after tomorrow. How about this? The day after tomorrow is Monday. I will bring someone to meet you.” If he directly brought Anran to see her, then she will no longer worry about his wedding.

“Person? What person?” Qin Yun was momentarily unable to react.

“My wife. Your daughter in law.” Su Yicheng mysteriously smiled, and he turned around to leave the study, leaving behind a shocked Qin Yun.
