Chapter 159 Brother-in-Law
He felt guilty for treating them so poorly for the past five years. That was why he did not tell them his true identity. He had stayed by their sides, helping them in silence to compensate for what he had done to them.
“Actually, Chu Feng is a decent person.” Yun Muqing’s eyes glistened as she recalled the days of living with Chu Feng for the past one month.
The sudden presence of this man in their lives had brought some liveliness into their peaceful, yet boring lifestyles.
Although they might squabble at times, or even get angry and jealous, nobody and nothing could replace that peculiar sense of fulfillment, happiness and security.
To rephrase what she was experiencing in a way that the older generation would have described it, one would say, “The mixture of the good times and the bad times make up the flavors of life, which is the true essence of life.”
Yun Muqing could not help but to let out a smile. The more she thought about it, the more radiant the smile on her face was.
Yun Muyu blinked a few times and glanced curiously at Yun Muqing who had a blank smile on her face. “Sister, you can’t possibly be falling for Chu Feng, right?”
You can’t possibly be falling for Chu Feng, right? That question echoed in Yun Muqing’s head and took her by surprise; blood rushed to her face instantly, turning her face red as beet.
“Muyu, w-what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Who would fall in love with this bastard?”
Her eyes were flitting around wildly and she lowered her head, sneakily taking a peek at Chu Feng who was mingling so well with Duo Duo while he was preparing a meal; her heart fluttered even more at the sight.
Yun Muyu just pursed her lips and did not make a big deal out of it.
“All right, sister. I don’t care whether you are in love with Chu Feng or not, but what I know for certain is that having a man like him around is just unsafe.” She lifted her gaze arrogantly and added, “So, I will be your guardian, and I’ve made up my mind to move in with you guys. If Chu Feng ever dares to step out of line, hmph, he will be sorry and I will beat him up!” said Yun Muyu, making a few Taekwondo poses after that. Her poses were quite bold and she was posing so confidently.
Yun Muqing just put her hands over her mouth and giggled. Although she felt that this little girl was so childish, she was still moved by Yun Muyu’s intentions.
“Thank you, Muyu, you treat me so well.”
Yun Muyu tugged at her sister’s hand and said to her emotionally, “There’s no doubt about that. After all, I’m your dearest and the forever youthful younger sister! Don’t worry, I am a righteous person and I hold on to my principles. Nobody will dare to bully you in my presence.”
Yun Muyu stuck her chest out proudly and looked determined.
“All right, all right, all right.”
Yun Muqing nodded her head, feeling so touched and gratified; having a family member by her side at the most crucial moments was a great comfort to her indeed.
“Eh? Something smells so nice, what’s that aroma?”
Just at this moment, Yun Muyu’s eyes lit up as she started sniffing at the smell. She followed the aroma and ran into the kitchen.
“This just came out fresh from the pot. Do you want to have a taste?” asked Chu Feng as he placed a plate of fried chicken which he had just finished frying on the dining table.
The chicken wings and drumsticks that had been handpicked were coated with egg wash and breadcrumbs. The layers of crispy skin were flaky and it looked tempting. The meat was fried until it was golden yellow and crispy on the outside, but tender and juicy on the inside.
It looked appetizing with just a glance.
If cumin powder and chilli powder was sprinkled on it, coupled with a big cup of iced coke, that would be absolutely wonderful.
“Oh, it’s delicious, it’s so delicious.“ Yun Muyu finished a drumstick in just two or three bites. She shut her eyes and had a look of indulgence and satisfaction.
She licked the oil that was on her fingertips clean and just stared yearningly at the plate of food.
“You can have more if it’s delicious. I’ll make them for you everyday after this,” Chu Feng replied generously. He had to forge a good relationship with his future sister-in-law.
“Wow, that’s great! You’re really charming, brother-in-law!” Yun Muyu leaped in joy as she rubbed her hands together in excitement and started feasting in earnest.
Yun Muqing who was standing not far away tripped and nearly fell down.
She looked extremely upset and she was clenching her teeth.
Where had the righteousness that she just mentioned gone? What happened to her promised role as a guardian and the bond between them as sisters?
Yu Muyu had sold her out in an instant just for a plate of fried chicken. She even called him brother-in-law?!
“Traitor, what a fake sister!” Yun Muqing rolled her eyes and stomped her feet furiously.
“Thank you, brother-in-law. Hehe.”
