Because I simply love you-Chapter 466: Two down, one to go
Chapter 466: Two down, one to go
“Maybe you are lying and don’t have any such pictures.” Liang Xiao Dan narrowed her eyes.
“You are tricking us!” Liang Zou flared.
Jinhai sighed. He took out his phone and showed a picture to them.
“Have you seen this before?”
They took a look and were stunned. In it, Nana was maybe around twelve years old and was wearing a strawberry hat with her hair down and a pretty floral green dress. The smile on her lips was so pure and innocent that their hearts bloomed in joy.
This was the first time they saw this picture.
Even Yu Ichika and the twins were stunned. At twelve, Nana was already away from her, so it’s understandable for Yu Ichika, but Yukito and Yukira were shocked too.
Even we don’t have this picture! When was it taken? How come we don’t have that!?
Jianyu helplessly shook his head.
Then he thought to himself.
Well, I wouldn’t be doing anything different either.
Jinhai took his phone back, and she said, “Hey, let me look at it more!”
Jinhai victoriously smiled. “It was for a limited time. This is just one of the many pictures I have. But unfortunately, I cannot give them to you unless…”
He left it unsaid, and obviously, they knew his meaning.
Liang Zou said, “Jinhai I-“
“Take the ring and give me the pictures!”
Liang Xiao Dan took out the ring and handed it out to him in a flash.
Everybody –”…”
Shin’s mouth twitched. “Mom…”
Huian burst into laughter. “Don’t say anything to her. I think you looked pretty much ready to hand over the ring, too, don’t you?”
“O-of course not,” but he averted his gaze.
Jinhai chuckled as he saw his wife’s ring handed it to him as if she did it on a silver platter.
Liu Hai laughed. “I have raised a fine businessman, didn’t I?”
Liu Chunhua and Grandma Liu could only feel pitiful for the Liang couple.
Jinhai smiled and took the ring back. His gaze turned gentle as he softly caressed his finger on the ring.
“Thank you, mother-in-law.”
Liang Xiao Dan said, “Give me the pictures right now!”
Her phone rang with a ding, and she got saw numerous picture messages on her phone.
“Zou look at them! We never really saw these before!”
The twins and Jing were also eager to see Nana’s photos, but they had things to do.
Jinhai smiled. “Did I win, brothers-in-law?”
“Huh?”
Yukito snapped out and said, “Ah, yes! Brother-in-law has won the second level too!”
Everybody clapped once again.
“Now it’s bro Jianyu’s turn!” Yukira said, “Let’s see what he will do to get his wife’s ring back.”
Everybody cheered as Jianyu entered the scene too.
Just like Jinhai, Jianyu also faced Huo Xiao Fan.
Before anything even began, Huo Shen said, “Xiao Fan! Don’t give him the ring at any cost! Don’t fall into any of his traps!”
“Well, I will try my best.”
“Don’t try. You have to win at any cost!”
She rolled her eyes. Then she smiled at Jianyu. “Hello, son-in-law.”
“Hello, mother-in-law.”
“So, are you going to pull off something similar to Jinhai?”
“Pretty much.”
Chen Liling and Chen Guiren curiously leaned in to know what wager he had over her.
Huo Xiao Fan said, “I know that I was detached to Zhilan, too, all these years, but the thing with her pictures won’t work on me. I am sure you don’t have any other pictures that I don’t have either.”
Jianyu lazily smiled. “I didn’t say that I will be exactly following bro.”
“Then what will you do?” she looked at him with interest.
“The rules are that I cannot touch you, but I have something to say to you, which you pretty much wouldn’t want it to be revealed right now. Can you lean in a bit? I will whisper it in your ear.”
Chen Liling frowned. “What is it, Jianyu?”
Everybody was equally puzzled.
Jianyu said, “Sorry but nope. It will be between mother-in-law and me.”
Huo Shen exclaimed. “Don’t fall into it, Xiao Fan!”
“Then how will I know what he has to say? Don’t worry. I think he is just bluffing.”
Jianyu only chuckled.
“Alright, tell me.”
Huo Xiao Fan leaned in, and so did Jianyu. He inclined his face near her ear and whispered something.
The rest tried to listen in, too, but Jianyu was hardly audible to get any word of the conversation.
As she kept listening, Huo Xiao Fan’s face changed. She looked at Jianyu, speechless. “H-How do you know? I didn’t tell anybody about this…”
Jianyu shrugged. “I will tell that later. But for now, you have to decide. Will you give me the ring or should I…”
Huo Xiao Fan took out the ring in a flash and placed it on his palm.
Huo Shen and Liwei’s jaws dropped wide open.
“Xiao Fan!”
“Mom!”
Liang Xiao Dan laughed. “What just happened? You were even faster than me.”
Huo Xiao Fan said, “Sorry, Shen, Liwei.”
“Just what did he say to you?” Huo Shen asked in disbelief.
She coughed. “I will tell you later but not now.”
Jianyu flashed a victorious smile too. “And I win.”
But everybody was more curious to know what he said to her rather than excited about his win.
Jing announced. “So both grooms have passed the second level too!”
“Woohooo!”
Everyone gave a loud round of applause.
“Now comes the final test!” Jing giggled. “If they win this too, then they are free to meet their wives.”
Yukito smiled. “Well, how can a test be complete without going through your wife’s protective brothers?”
Jianyu and Jinhai’s brows twitched.
Shin and Liwei grinned like two monsters who were ready to bring doom upon them.
Jing announced. “For the third and final test, our grooms will have to defeat their brothers-in-law in a fistfight! They will lock down their fists in a fierce battle, and the one who brings the fist of their opponent down first wins.”
“Ooooooohhhhhhh…”
Everybody laughed, feeling the excitement and curiosity in the atmosphere.
Shin proudly looked at Huian. “Heh! Just watch how I defeat him. No way I am going to let him win this round! Hah! He can never meet my sister today!”
Huian raised her brow. She decided to tease him a little. “Jinhai is quite strong, you know…”
Shin narrowed his eyes. “You think I cannot win?”
She coughed. “Of course not. I was just saying…”
“Do you have any doubt in my strength after that night we spent together in the bar? We did so hard that you even got pregnant the first time itself.”
Huian looked at him in shock. She stomped her foot on his. “Are you an idiot? I never knew you were so shameless!”
Shin snorted. “Let me win this thing, and I will show you again how strong I am.”
She blushed.
From afar, Liang Xiao Dan may haven’t heard their conversation, but she didn’t miss any of their expressions.
I am right! I am so right! Something is going on between them! Huian is actually blushing!
