His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy-Chapter 600
Chapter 600: ELDEST BROTHER’S PLOT
Furukawa Sara was a somewhat small woman in stature. She was perhaps the reason that Shun had not turned out like his burly brothers. No one stopped her actions when she practically launched herself at Shun with tears in her eyes.
Shun looked at his mother and found that she did look a little older than he remembered her. The truth of this matter sunk into his mind, causing him some fear and horror. He really had amnesia. And the evidence was right before him.
But he was not a man with an inflexible mind.
It was not like he could do anything to remember the missing chunk of time even if he was afraid. For now, he could only accept what had happened and try to move forward.
With that in mind, he let his mother hug him. Despite her stature, she was quite strong. Her arms felt like a boa constrictor around his shoulders. But somehow, that fierce hug was reassuring. After a moment, Shun lifted his arms and hugged her back.
Then, he lifted his eyes and looked at his father and three brothers who were standing at the end of his bed. They were a little older, just like his mother. No, he was also older. He had just forgotten about it.
He nodded towards them.
.....
Shun was not trying to be rude. However, despite knowing that he had forgotten a significant chunk of time, he could not change his current feelings. During the period in which he believed he was living, he had a lot of disagreements with his father and brothers.
The quarrels came up because the four of them did not want to give him more responsibilities in the company. Furthermore, when he wanted to leave and start living independently, they refused to let him, to the point of interfering with his finances.
Therefore, he could not muster enthusiasm towards them. And he did not know his current life or his feelings towards his family after all these years.
The faces of the four men fell when they saw how cold Shun was towards them.
“What is wrong, Shun? Are you still feeling unwell? Should we call the doctor?” His father was the first one to speak up.
Furukawa Kenta was a tough man with an unwavering spirit. He had paved his way in one of the most challenging fields and become a legend. His path to success in the security solutions market was not easy, but he had some knowledge after a short stint in the military.
But he had a soft spot for Shun.
When Shun was born, his family was quite close to a breaking point. His wife was tired of him because he prioritised work over everything. She had threatened to leave him on multiple occasions. However, he did not know how to choose his family over urgent tasks in the business.
And in the security business, almost every mission was urgent.
Therefore, their marriage was on the rocks, and their home life was uncomfortable and tense.
As for their three sons, they were wild boys who fought constantly. They were young, but they had already picked up bad behaviours like skipping classes, running from school and picking fights around the neighbourhood.
Then, Shun was born.
When each of the family members saw the cute little baby, their hearts melted. He was so small and delicate, and when his eyes looked at them, they saw a purity that could not be captured. He was like the embodiment of an angel.
From the moment he was born, everything in the Furukawa family changed.
Kenta started coming back home early. He did not spend dawn to the deep night in the office. He returned and spent time with his wife and son. And the three brothers also stopped their bad behaviours. Their only fights were about who would get to hold the baby for longer.
Then, it became a long-term competition between them. The most powerful among them would be the one to take care of Baby Shun in the future. The petty competition prompted them to become good students with a keen focus.
All in all, Shun was like a saviour to the family. The entire family vowed to never let him suffer. He would always be their baby.
How could they bear to see him looking thin, pale and helpless in the hospital? But more than that, they were heartbroken because Shun was looking at them like they were strangers. Only a month ago, he was enthusiastically telling them about his plans to build another playground.
His enthusiasm was always contagious when he was excited about something. He kept describing how he was going to collaborate with Etude Technologies to create a playground based on one of their most popular game franchises.
Now, he was just different.
“No, I am fine,” Shun responded after a short period while pushing his mother away.
The Furukawa family looked at each other with confusion before they turned to look at Wang Che. Their eyes were full of unspoken questions.
Shun noticed this movement and looked at Wang Che with a pout. It seemed like this boyfriend of his had put his family under a spell. He should have figured as much. His family would not leave him alone if they did not know Wang Che.
Wang Che seemed to see through the small thoughts of his little bunny. He smiled a little at him in reassurance before turning back to the Furukawa family.
“Shun has amnesia. He seems to have forgotten the last five or six years of his life.” Wang Che said calmly.
“Oh, my baby!” Sara said.
She was going to launch herself at Shun again for another hug, but he leaned away. Moreover, there was a sense of alienation in his eyes. He turned his eyes from his family and looked to Wang Che as if searching for comfort.
The Furukawa men were equally horrified, but they did not know how to express themselves. And now that they knew that Shun had amnesia, they were afraid of spooking him.
“Wait a minute!” The Second Brother spoke up. “If Shun just woke up and has forgotten his life in the past five or six years, why is he acting close to you? Based on this, the two of you should not have met before, so he should be cautious of you.”
His two brothers agreed while the Furukawa parents looked at him in question.
Wang Che did not have an answer. If the situation were not serious, he would have said something like Shun’s love was too deep to be completely forgotten. But he could see that the group before him was quite worried.
“It is probably because I am the first person he saw when he woke up.” Wang Che chose an easy explanation.
“Is that really the case?” Sara asked uncertainly.
“It is possible.” The Third Brother said. “Maybe it is like the way ducklings recognise the first person after they hatch as their mother.”
“It is called filial imprinting. But do not compare our brother to a baby duck.” The Second Brother said while slapping the back of his younger brother’s head.
“Baby ducks are so cute. Do you remember that Shun had a baby duck pyjama when he was like three? It was so yellow and fluffy. He looked like the cutest creature in the world.” The Third Brother said while sinking into old memories.
“Oh yeah! I remember it. Actually, I have several pictures.” The Second Brother said with pride. “I converted the photos to a digital format. I have them stored in the cloud. Do you want to see?”
The Eldest Brother got annoyed by his siblings who got side-tracked so quickly. He swatted the back of their heads swiftly with the efficiency of someone who had done it before countless times. The two clutched their heads with grievances.
He smiled when he saw them in pain. He was a little annoyed with them after hearing the imprinting possibility. If the two of them had not wasted so much time at the office and insisted on catching a ride with him, he might have been the first on the scene.
Then, he would have had a chance at stealing his adorable brother back from Wang Che. He did not have anything against Wang Che personally. He knew that the man genuinely loved Shun. The love was evident in everything he did for his na?ve brother.
Even though Shun moved to another country to escape them, they still monitored his moves. The Furukawa family did not leave anything to chance. Unfortunately, Shun had never needed their help after leaving.
Because of Zhong Feng and Wang Che, he never got into trouble.
In the past year, they had finally gotten a chance to be reunited with Shun. And it was wonderful. He had blossomed into a great man. But more than that, his inner light shone brightly. He was surrounded by a cloud of happiness.
It would be wonderful to have him all the time in Mountain Ridge.
But the chance of stealing him back was lost because they did not arrive in time. The Eldest Brother looked at Wang Che with a grudge in his heart. Wang Che only looked back with the placid smile of an unconcerned man.
No, there was still a chance.
As long as Shun refused to be with Wang Che, he would choose to be with his family. At this moment, Shun did not know Wang Che. Therefore, even if there was imprinting, it would not overcome familial bonds.
He grinned evilly at Wang Che.
