The Young master's fake bride and her lucky system-Chapter 298: One lazy brother
On her way to school later after leaving Yura’s place, she received a call from her husband. She had been expecting it and it surprised her that it had taken him this long to wait patiently.
"Hubby Zhang." she said softly when she answered.
It wasn’t because she was attempting to sound sweet and endearing but because she didn’t want to be unnecessarily loud.
"What happened? Are you safe?" he blurted out anxiously.
"I am fine, I am sure that you also know this otherwise you would not be calling just now. Bi Cang has already informed Mo Sen that we have left your mother’s house."
"Wrong." he responded.
"Hmmm." she answered. freёnovelkiss.com
"My mother called me the moment you left her house. She is already raving about the dogs and Zhang An has shared a picture of them on Majesty’s weibo. You must like giving out live animals as gifts." he commented.
Alix laughed and couldn’t help rolling her eyes. "Says the man that won’t go anywhere without his cat which i gave him as a gift. You sent a driver over to pick it up in the morning in a car that it uses alone. It has a drawer of expensive cat collars, hundreds of toys, gloves for cold weather, personalized knitted head socks, weekly massages and grooming sessions.
You even bought it A grade beef, tsk, tsk, now that i think about it, that cat could be our first child. The only difference between Baby and an actual child is that Baby doesn’t go to school."
When he told his mother jokingly that Baby was her first granddaughter Alix had no idea that the cat would be treated even better than an actual child. He was a crazy cat dad, people just didn’t know this about him. She wondered often what they would do if they did.
"My cat is rich, all those things came out of it’s savings. Why are you complaining when your cat leeches off mine?" he replied.
"Ho!" Alix gasped. "Who is the leech here when your cat abandons A grade beef for the special sausages, beef jerky and other snacks for my Majesty."
Meow...
"She sleeps in my bed too and drinks my milk." Majesty added, voicing his own complaint.
"Did you hear that? Majesty has said that she eats his fruits, drinks his milk, eats his sweets and sleeps in his bed. Zhang Caishen, is your Baby trying to marry into my household? Why is she sniffing around my son? Why is she sleeping in a man’s bed?"
In his office, Caishen almost choked on his milk when she said that. He put down the cup of milk and laughed deeply.
"What, a man’s bed!! Alix, are you trying to defame my Baby? This is slander and i can sue you on behalf of my Baby."
He laughed again and shook his head in wonder. Who knew that Alix liked to play dirty? All this cat talk had distracted him from the important conversation they were supposed to be having.
He wanted to know what had spooked her in that underground shopping mall. He trusted her instincts as much as he trusted Baby. Mo Sen was already working on acquiring all the footage from the time between when she arrived at the mall and after to figure out if truly, they had been followed.
Just like her system, he was deeply suspicious of Lai Yanfang. She hadn’t succeeded with him so who knew if she would aim her nefarious plans at his wife.
He would have to get to get in touch with Fu Yichen and make him deal with his wife if she proved difficult. The Fu family would not tolerate what she had done and neither would her Lai family. His attention returned to the phone call and his wife.
"Wait, let’s be serious here and leave the cats alone. We need to talk about what happened in that underground parking."
Alix was only partially listening because Majesty that she had been defending tooth and nail was glaring at her disdainfully and meowing loudly in protest.
"I am not your son. Alix, why are you calling me your son? Which part of my royal body resembles you?"
She tried to rub the cat’s head but it dodged her hand and meowed again.
"Calm down, it was a figure of speech." she told him. "Besides, what is wrong with me your mother?"
Bi Cang happened to look back at that point and he asked, "Young madam, should we stop the car and put the cat in a carrier? It’s causing a ruckus which is worrisome. I am afraid that it might scratch you."
Majesty knew what the cat carrier was and he despised it. It’s meowing became even deeper and angrier. The cat remained grumpy and testy, prompting Alix to end her call with Caishen and attend to it. When they arrived at the school, it went off in search of elder Ren immediately.
She sighed and walked to her office slowly, taking in the beautiful view of her school.
"Young madam, we should move quicker because its snowing." Bi Cang reminded her.
Alix hastened her steps but just as she reached the steps, she was intercepted by the school nurse, a quirky woman that she had met a total of three times. The first time they met, she was talking to a tree, the second, she was treating the broken leg of a squirrel and the third, she was on the roof top of the building, threatening a student with dissection if she ever caught him attempting to smoke.
"Director, we need to talk. If you could please follow me to my office."
Curious about what the nurse wanted, Alix willingly followed her all the way to her office. It was one of the larger rooms with a few beds for sick students that needed to rest, a medicine cabinet which was locked, a sink, table, chair and computer.
Not to be missed was the skeleton in the corner of the room and a chart of the different body parts, internal and external.
She opened a curtain that was shielding one of the occupied beds. Alix saw Tai Jiaan, laying down on the bed and deeply asleep.
Her immediate worry was that he had fallen sick and worry filled her.
"Jiaan..." she called slightly anxious and leaned down to check on him. She touched his forehead first and felt his temperature. Luckily, he was warm but normal, not sickly hot.
"He is fine." The school nurse looked at Alix with indolent eyes and told her. "Director, i understand that you own the school but your brother cannot randomly come by and sleep in my office whenever he feels like it. Most of the teachers are afraid to stop him but i can’t sit by anymore. As a responsible adult, i cannot condone this kind of behavior in a student."
Alix nodded, fully agreeing with the school nurse. She did not condone this behavior as well. Tai Jiaan needed some disciplining.
She handed her bag to Bi Cang and rubbed her hands together. One smack on Jiaan’s butt would do the trick.
