Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers Chapter 353 - Hateful Old Hag

Chapter 353 - Hateful Old Hag

A/n: The beginning of Lin Yan's arc will be a bit long, and most of it would be in his pov.

Su Wan watched the figure go further away from her and her brows scrunched up, it was weird. She wasn't someone who would judge a person by their looks but this old woman - she was giving off a rather creepy vibe. Call it her intuition but something was seriously wrong with that old woman, Su Wan didn't want to go around circling such a small incident that happened because of her own mistake but she couldn't stop herself from glaring in the direction where the old woman walked of to, the anger and hatred she was feeling for that woman, it was all instinctive and Su Wan couldn't understand that she wasn't the brooding type and she would never get angry or upset just because someone scolded her -? not to mention it was her fault, to begin with!

But she still found herself glaring at the woman, she hated her, despised her, as to why - Su Wan had no accountable reason for that, it was like the Universe was egging her on to hate that old hag.

She pursed her lips and rubbed her nose, before turning her gaze away from the back of the woman. She wasn't going to sulk just because of an unknown woman, even if her heart and gut seemed to hate that woman and was urging her to go and pick up a fight with that woman and show her who was the boss.

" Wan Wan, are you okay? Why did you come out before our return?" just now Lin Jing had seen Su Wan knocking into Su Wan, though he was a bit far away from the two. He could still make out the ancient face from afar, his heart nearly jumped up all the way to his throat when he recognised the woman. He couldn't believe what he was seeing- years ago after that incident, the woman left Dong Tong town and returned to the capital. At that time, Lin Jing thought that he would never see this woman ever again but she was back! Only Lin Jing knew how scared he was when he saw Su Wan standing close to that woman, his knees nearly buckled - that woman, he never wanted her near his family especially Lin Yan and Su Wan.? Who knows what that crazy woman might do if she ever got her hands on Lin Yan again.

" I - I wanted some fresh air" responded Su Wan still glaring at the empty alley where the old woman has disappeared. She rubbed her nose and looked up at Lin Jing before softly chastising " I don't know who that crazy woman was, I just knocked into her unconsciously and she scolded me like I ate her babies! She was so rude too who was she looking down at? My clothes are cleaner than her face, I'm afraid if she knocks into someone, that person might get a white job done on their clothes! You didn't see her face, it was even whiter than a eunuch! Who is trying to fool - humph"

Su Wan never bothered about strangers nor did she talk badly about them behind their backs but that old woman - she just hated her too much! Just one glimpse of her face was enough to make Su Wan's teeth itch! Even now Su Wan was feeling so angry that she wanted to hit someone.

Lin Jing smiled, he knew that his wife was more observant than others. So, she must have picked on the creepy vibe that the old woman emitted no wonder she was so upset. However, it was still not safe for her to approach that woman " You are right. That woman was really ugly - but you should stay away from such people she looked like a bad person"

Su Wan rolled her eyes, feeling really surprised and annoyed at Lin Jing's words. He was treating her like a child! Stay away from strangers and don't eat what they give you - did she look like a fool? Of course, she would stay away from this kind of creepy stranger! But she knew he was only saying that because he was worried about her, so she nodded and agreed with him" I get it, I was just saying - that woman doesn't look like a good person. I don't know how to explain but she isn't"

" I know" how can she not be? If she wasn't a bad person then she wouldn't have done what she did to Lin Yan. Lin Jing's eyes flashed with a cold gleam as he shot a frigid look in the direction where that woman went to, he wanted to tell Su Wan about her ident.i.ty but this wasn't his place to tell her something like that. It was Lin Yan and Lin Yan's own right to tell Su Wan about what happened to him because that nightmare was his, to begin with and so was his sufferings. Lin Jing wouldn't do justice to his pain because he never suffered what his brother did and only knew of surface details.

And if he told Su Wan who that woman was she would definitely rush after that woman, he knew she will. She was just like this overprotective of them like that, but right now they had no power especially not over that woman - and if she was back then it only meant that her husband who kept her in check was gone too.

He clenched his fists, he knew that the future was not going to be easy for them.

" let's go, we should return or else we might miss the cart back to the village. " said Lin Jing, though he knew Su Wan should know about Lin Yan's past and the ident.i.ty of his tormentor. He should first discuss with it Lin Yan instead of running his mouth and scaring Su Wan. That woman was after all not easy.

Lin Yu looked down at the teacup that shattered and then looked outside his window at the murky sky.? His heart was at unease as he rubbed the knot churning in his stomach " this omen - I fear it's not good"

The clouds crackled and a rare cold shower in the middle of the winter drenched everything.
