Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers Chapter 369 - Vanished Guest

Chapter 369 - Vanished Guest

" something for me?" asked Lin Yan, he couldn't help but feel suspicious of the packet that Little s.h.i.+ was holding, why would someone send him anything? He has been working in this restaurant for quite some time and no one ever gifted him anything, at most they would leave a string of copper coins as a tip but a gift - that was a bit unusual.

He looked at Su Wan who calmly glanced at the gift and then returned his gaze " what are you doing? Open it"

Lin Yan was once again surprised. Why was it that Su Wan was letting him open the gift, shouldn't see be checking it first? Seeing his confused expression, Su Wan sighed. She indeed wanted to check it out but these days she had been coddling Lin Yan a bit too much and the latter was getting annoyed as heck because of it.? Though Lin Yan didn't say it outright, she could feel his irritation rolling off his body, the only reason he wasn't jumping up in frustration and shouting at them was all because he knew they were doing it for his good.

But his annoyance was justified as well, she wouldn't like an all hour surveillance either no matter how serious the matter was. So she didn't try to intercept the gift and let Lin Yan tackle it, after all, she does not have to protect him alone but also his dignity as a man and her husband, seriously, her men were so annoying. It was fine to show? their weakness from time to time, it's not like seeing them cry she was going to judge them but then again a small boy was often taught not to cry if he was a man, so she couldn't just change it all of a sudden right?

Su Wan leaned forward and placed her elbow on her knee before resting her chin on her palm only then did she look at Lin Yan and smiled " go on, check it for yourself. "

Lin Yan didn't know why Su Wan let him check the package on his own, he was still grateful. After a week of coddling by his family, he was getting annoyed. Yes, he was terrified but was there a need for them to treat him like a porcelain doll? He could still do most things on his own right?

Su Wan smiled, she didn't say anything but silently stood up and walked out of the room. Lin Chen looked at her vanis.h.i.+ng back and then turned to look at his brother who was unwrapping the cloth packaging, he then placed his bowl next to the kitchen counter and followed Su Wan out but to his surprise when he walked out Su Wan was standing right outside with her hands clasped behind her back.

She didn't look unusual at all!

Actually, the reason he came with his second brother and Su Wan was that he wanted to keep eye on Su Wan together with Lin Yan. He knew how protective Su Wan was about them, so he was worried that she might do something reckless.

" Wan Wan ?" ignoring the call of the newest customer Lin Chen walked out after pa.s.sing the responsibility of taking care of the customer to little Cao " what are you doing here?"

" Nothing, I just came to see if I could catch the customer who left the gift behind," said Su Wan her eyes sharply surveying the surroundings " it's funny how that person vanished, according to little Cao, the customer left a few minutes ago, he was wearing a white robe with red flowers like flames, but now I can't see anyone like that"

" is that so?" Lin Chen took a quick look around and sure enough, there was no one whose appearance matched with Little Cao's description. What was going on?? If that person just left how can he get away from them so far? And his eyesight was the best among his brothers! Well after eldest brother of course. " that's surprising, if they are so sneaky then it will be troublesome to catch them, wouldn't it? That's the hardest part, to catch those who don't show themselves"

" Really?" mused Su Wan, her eyes landing right on a young man who was helping the dock workers " I find it quite cowardly on the other hand, to always hide themselves like a little mutt, but then again, that woman is nothing more than a b.i.t.c.h in heat after all"

Lin Chen heard her vivid description of Luo Xin and chuckled " let's get back inside, second brother should be done opening the package"

Su Wan said nothing and nodded however, her gaze was still on the young man who was loading the boxes in the s.h.i.+p that just touched the harbour.

-

" Sister! Sister, I will never do something like that ever again" Chen Xiao Cai rushed inside his dilapidated house and smacked the money that he earned on the docks together with the white robe that his sister gave him to wear while pretending to be a customer at Su Wan's restaurant.

Chen Xiao Ji paused and let the powder puff fall on the dressing cabinet before she picked up the robe and dusted it off " what's wrong with you? It was just delivering a gift and you are acting like I ordered you to murder someone !"

Chen Xiao Cai sneered as he pointed at his sister " oh yeah? Do you mean to say that out of nowhere your mistress got the idea of gifting a mere peasant a gift and you just had ne deliver it? I know you better than that! So you best not lie with me.? I know what kind of person your rich madam is having served her in my childhood you are not fooling me !"

" she gave us ten tales !"

" and she can give us more! But thanks to her I was nearly caught! The boss's wife was suspicious of me and came to look for me! Do you have any idea how it would hurt us if I get caught? You do nothing but eat and still come up with such ridiculous schemes one after another! You better stay at home and look for a good man to marry! Don't cause unnecessary trouble for me"

With that Chen Xiao Cai walked out of his sister's room with a loud bang.

Chen Xiao Ji watched him go and whined " how am I supposed to look for a man if I stay at home whole day?"

But then her eyes fell on the s.h.i.+ny silver on her cabinet and she giggled, whatever it was worth it. She should go and tell her madam the good news!
