Chapter 55: Chapter 55: He is My Son-in-Law
"You all!"
Zhou Fang was so angry that her face turned bright red, but she couldn’t say much else.
Wu Xia pursed his lips: "Sister-in-law, the village committee dormitory has two beds; they can squeeze in and sleep four people."
"My room can sleep three people, let them squeeze in there, it’s just perfect!"
"Then where will you sleep?" Zhou Fang asked with a puzzled face, her cheeks flushing.
Although she really wanted Wu Xia to come to her room at night, with all these male cousins around, she wouldn’t dare to do such a thing no matter how bold she was.
"I’ll go to Jiaojiao’s room!" Wu Xia walked over to Lin Jiao’s side, ready to disclose his relationship with her.
Lin Jiao immediately stood up: "Mmm, you go to my room, I’ll go squeeze in with my sister-in-law!"
As she spoke, she didn’t forget to glare fiercely at Wu Xia, as if blaming him for not speaking about it in front of so many people.
Wu Xia had an innocent look, helplessly scratching his head.
Zhou Fang’s eyebrows knitted slightly, sensing something unusual between Wu Xia and Lin Jiao, but with all her relatives there, she couldn’t say much.
"Alright, then let’s arrange it that way!"
Her room was opposite Wu Xia’s room, and only Lin Jiao’s room was a bit further away in the side chamber, so it was a good thing for Wu Xia to stay alone so far away.
Zhou Fang’s relatives didn’t say much either, and went to sleep as she arranged.
While Wu Xia and Lin Jiao were tidying up, he asked somewhat despondently, "Jiaojiao, what are you afraid of?"
"I’ve already said I’ll marry you, they’re going to find out sooner or later!"
"Xia, you know what kind of temperament my sister-in-law has!" Lin Jiao’s face flushed red, and she gave Wu Xia a white look: "Besides, she also wants to have children with you, if she finds out you’re going to marry me now, she’ll make a huge fuss."
"Let’s wait until Big Brother comes back before we tell her!"
Wu Xia understood this reasoning but he hesitated to speak.
He was afraid Zhou Fang might run to his room in the middle of the night, but considering her relatives were there, she probably wouldn’t dare to.
Therefore, he didn’t say much.
However, Wu Xia underestimated Zhou Fang’s desire.
After being suppressed for so long, especially after experiencing the last incident, she couldn’t wait a moment longer.
She hadn’t fallen asleep at all, waited until the second half of the night, and upon hearing that everyone had fallen asleep, she stealthily climbed out from under the covers and prepared to go to Wu Xia’s room.
What she didn’t know was that Lin Jiao in the adjacent room hadn’t fallen asleep either.
She wasn’t used to the different bed and was somewhat fearful with so many men in the house, not daring to get up to go to the restroom.
"Sister-in-law, wait for me, I want to go with you,"
Seeing Zhou Fang getting up, she thought Zhou Fang was going to the restroom and hurriedly followed.
"Ah!"
Zhou Fang was startled and quickly patted her chest: "Why are you following, just sleep."
"Sister-in-law, I can’t hold it anymore, I’m too scared to go alone!"
Lin Jiao wasn’t on the same page as Zhou Fang, who just then realized Lin Jiao needed to use the restroom.
And so, the two went out to the restroom and then came back.
In the end, Zhou Fang also fell asleep out of exhaustion, and Lin Jiao didn’t dare to go, so she didn’t go either.
The next day.
As dawn was just breaking, Zhou Fang’s relatives hurriedly left.
When Wu Xia woke up, he found that both Zhou Fang and Lin Jiao were still asleep, so he didn’t disturb them. He tidied up, left them breakfast, and went to the village committee.
Although his medical reputation was suppressed because of the incident with Xiao Nihuang,
it had still spread across the nearby ten miles, and many people came seeking treatment.
Wu Xia didn’t mind, thinking that slowly spreading the word was a good thing.
But what Wu Xia didn’t expect was that Lin Jiao’s parents and younger brother had also come.
They weren’t there to seek treatment but stood by, watching the queue of patients being treated with bright eyes.
In their eyes, it was pure silver at their fingertips.
"Xia, you’re really not bad at all. With our Jiaojiao following you, she’ll be able to live a blessed life in the future."
"Bro Xia, brother-in-law, look, I can do anything. Just take me under your wing and I can learn whatever you teach me. You can teach me medical skills too."
The family just kept clinging to Wu Xia, and Mrs. Lin didn’t forget to brag to everyone, "This is my son-in-law, you all better look out for me, don’t offend me!"
Wu Xia had a headache and hurriedly told them to go aside and rest, not to disturb his medical treatment.
He smiled bitterly, helplessly. It seemed that Lin Jiao’s intention to keep it secret from Zhou Fang was bound to fail.
As expected, Lin Jiao, who got up in the morning and was about to come over to help, was absolutely surprised to see her parents and her younger brother.
"Dad, Mom, why have you come?"
"Oh, these are her parents!"
"Isn’t that Doctor Wu’s second sister-in-law?"
"Doctor Wu is going to marry his second sister-in-law?"
"Is this really, is this fair to his second brother?"
Everyone was discussing it, and in no time, the whole thing spread.
Lin Jiao’s face flushed with embarrassment as she tried to drag her parents away.
"What’s there to be afraid of? Xia said it yesterday in front of so many people, sooner or later everyone will know!"
"We’re here today to have a look and also to take the betrothal gifts back to spruce up the house and find a wife for your brother."
Mrs. Lin said carelessly, even deliberately standing up and shouting, "What era are we in now, where are all these old-fashioned thoughts coming from? Isn’t it good enough that they truly love each other?"
"Mom, stop talking!" Lin Jiao was embarrassed, dragging her parents because she had already seen Zhou Fang standing at the door.
At that moment, Zhou Fang’s eyes widened, disbelieving what she was seeing.
"Sister-in-law, let me explain to you!" Lin Jiao hurriedly tried to explain.
Zhou Fang simply waved her hand, "Don’t talk, we’ll discuss everything when we go back!"
She wasn’t foolish. She knew that family shame should not be spread abroad.
Moreover, she had intended to bring Lin Jiao and Wu Xia together initially, as long as it didn’t interfere with her pregnancy and solving her own issues.
"Oh!"
The atmosphere instantly became somewhat awkward.
"Sister-in-law, take them back first. I’ll come back after I’m done here!" Wu Xia spoke at this moment.
Zhou Fang wasn’t trying to marry him. She just wanted to resolve her issues, so he was never afraid of Zhou Fang finding out.
"Okay!"
Zhou Fang nodded and quickly called for Lin Jiao’s family to go back home.
Just then, the sound of car horns came from outside the village committee.
A luxury motorcade drove into the village committee’s compound.
Seven cars in total, all Audis of the same color.
Such a display, not to mention in Wujia Gully, was rare even in the town.
The cars filled up the entire village committee playground, and from the front and rear vehicles, a group of people in suits and leather shoes got out.
Stepping out from the middle car was none other than the town’s richest man, Liu Fusheng.
Following him were an old man and two women.
Wu Xia’s gaze instantly fixed on the old man.
Because from the old man’s body, he felt an evil power. It was clear that he had cultivated some cultivation technique.
He had always been standing about half a meter behind the woman, who was next to Liu Fusheng’s daughter, ready to assume a defensive stance at any moment.
The girl whom Liu Yuting, Liu Fusheng’s daughter, was clutching, had an extremely cold aura about her body, like a popsicle just taken out of an icebox.
"Haha, Doctor Wu, sorry for the delay over the past while, I didn’t get to see you!"
Liu Fusheng laughed heartily as he approached, "Today, not only have I brought you the money, but I’ve also brought a big gift for you!"
