Chapter 822: 822 is not biological

“Third Brother…” She hesitated, her words trailing off.

He caressed the hair at her forehead with indulgence, “Hmm? You don’t like the vegetables I stir-fried?”

She shook her head and sighed, “Third Brother, actually… you should pay more attention to Second Brother and Fourth Brother. You shouldn’t… because of me…”

He cut her off, looking at her intently, “Wife, actually, I’ve been thinking very clearly these past days. I simply can’t bear to see you with Second Brother or Fourth Brother. If you indeed ended up with one of them… I’m afraid…”

Torment filled his deep eyes, “I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop myself from killing both Second Brother and Fourth Brother.” He gave a sorrowful smile, “I don’t know why, but even though Second Brother and Fourth Brother are both magnanimous people, I, Xiao Yuchuan, might seem merry on the outside, but my heart is harder than anyone else’s.”

Seriousness filled his gaze, “Wife, do you know? When Li Gui came to buy you, Second Brother didn’t say a word. I said I would kill you, this pair of adulterous lovers… I was serious. If you had really gone with him, I definitely would have killed you both, then committed suicide.”

...

“…”

“I’m terrifying, aren’t I?” He smiled brightly, “I also don’t know why my heart can be so cold. Actually, I’m not as sentimental as I appear on the surface. I can’t tolerate anyone slandering you, I can’t stand anyone bullying you, not even Second Brother.”

His fists clenched, “If Xiao Yishan weren’t my elder brother, for the way he treated you, I would really want to kill him!”

“…” She really didn’t know what to say.

She thought she knew the men of the Xiao Family well enough, but everything was deviating further from what she imagined.

Second Brother had been so nice to her before, and it turned out he was so kind-hearted, kind-hearted enough to bring another woman home.

She didn’t harbor any romantic feelings for him, so naturally, she didn’t mind emotionally.

However, Xiao Yishan had been calling her his wife, and as a husband, his actions deserved a thousand cuts!

Considering she had rejected him first and chosen Fourth Brother, it meant that even if Second Brother was together with another woman, she had nothing to say about it.

Yet today, Second Brother troubled her on account of another woman, truly forgetting that it was she, Su Qingyue, who saved his life.

Fourth Brother wasn’t as despicable as Second Brother, but he too was extremely kind.

Third Brother, on the other hand, was beyond her expectations.

Third Brother’s temperament seemed a bit out of place in the Xiao Family.

Xiao Yuchuan, seeing his wife’s scrutinizing eyes, curved the corners of his lips slightly, “Wife, what are you looking at?”

“Nothing much, I just feel that Fourth Brother is kinder than you.”

He didn’t mind, “Are you suggesting I should learn from Fourth Brother and hand you over? Humph,” he snorted, “I’d rather be killed quickly.” He pondered for a moment, then said, “Wife, my Father and Mother passed away early. But, when they died, I was also twelve years old, Second Brother and Big Sister both resembled Father, and Fourth Brother looked like Mom, his temperament very similar to hers as well. As for me, I looked like neither Father nor Mother.”

She casually remarked, “Could it be that you’re not the biological child of your Father and Mother?”

“How could that be?” he replied with a laugh, “My Father and Mother were very affectionate before their death, Mom would never have been unfaithful to Father. Besides, they weren’t childless, so there was no reason to adopt a child from outside. Also, I have asked the elder villagers, and they all said that my Mom was visibly pregnant with me for ten months, and the older generation of the village saw it.”

“I was just making a joke.” She had no suspicions. But what she didn’t expect was that her casual joke had inadvertently hit the mark; Third Brother wasn’t actually the biological child of the Xiao couple, but of course, that was a story for another time.
