Chapter 37 - Chapter 37: Brother in Law

Wei Yi Yi excitement goes from a hundred down to zero and immediately plummets to the negatives.

She knows it's not his fault. But seeing him sway open his fan again and acting feminine despite his built, she wanted to backdrop him to the ground.

That's how much it hurt having your dreams shattered!

"Greetings to brother-in-law." Wei Yi Yi averts her gaze as she returned the greeting.

She's not delighted at meeting new characters. Wei Yi Yi force herself not to greet the new arrival with dead eyes.

"It is perhaps.... sister-in-law does not recognize this prince?" With a shocked reaction, Jiang Liu pointed at himself like he was wrong.

Wei Yi Yi's eye twitch a little bit in added annoyance.

'I'm sorry, this bro doesn't even know if the synchronization bar is loading at all. If you have any complain, please direct it to the management.'

Or so she thought. She mince her words but she never splattered it out.

Jiang Liu is a keen person as it has a lot to do with the nature of his work. He saw the small instances in Wei Yi Yi's swift change in emotions.

With just this, he could tell that the one infront of him thinks a lot.

He's comfident to say that his sister-in-law frequently talk with herself.

Finding something interesting, he teased her, "This prince did attended your wedding but I guess that's to be expected since this is our first meeting."

In this world, there are people who could irk you so much you could feel your horns growing. Wei Yi Yi tooth felt itchy. She wanted to bite this person to death!

Tell that at first!

Just why are you acting like this bro wronged you?!

"Being the prime minister's daughter this prince thought you would at least recognize me at a glance. But I guess not as there's only royal brother in sister-in-law's eyes."

This bstard is insulting her as a lovestruck, right? Right?!

This prince talk too much for a guy!

Wei Yi Yi felt a crack in her smile.

She remind herself, even if her two brothers are useless, at least Lan Zhuang raise her civilized!

"This one would apologize first but could your highness introduce himself?" she asked.

"Oh my, where are my manners. This one is named Jiang Liu, Da Xian's sixth prince," he flashed her a smile, "This prince have the same mother consort as royal brother so that make us closer as a family. Sister-in-law could just call me by my name or sixth brother. Whatever suits the lady."

Acting all chummy with her, Wei Yi Yi could sense a scam.

"Nice to meet you..... I guess?" she casually gloss it over. She doesn't feel like introducing herself. What if she said something wrong? Are we even sure this dude is telling her the truth?

"I'll call you older sister then!" Since Wei Yi Yi is acting passive, Jiang Liu does not mind taking advantages. "What is older sister doing alone at the lake pavillion? Isn't it dangerous for you?"

Wei Yi Yi felt like he was implying something in his choice of words. And yes, Jiang Liu is implying something for her.

The two stare at each other in a stand still. One exhibits a poker face while the other is flashing his million dollar smile.

"My maidservant is in the middle of an errand. She'll be back soon. Sixth brother please sit down for the moment." she offered.

When the guy sat down and decided to stay, Wei Yi Yi pick up the book she's reading. She have no intention of serving him nor calling a maid servant over.

If he got bored and walk away, that's his choice.

Jiang Liu picked up one of her books and started to read. Wei Yi Yi was about to ignore him but then she saw him pinch the paper to turn a page.

She gape at him.

"Bro----"

Wei Yi Yi was utterly speechless when he folded the cover backwards and decide to hold the book with one hand by it's skeleton.

'This man must die!'

All her plan to talk diplomatically vanished in thin air.

She was ready to fold over her sleeves and fight it out with him. Man to man!

"Empress..."

Thankfully someone called out. Xiao Yuan Xi would cry tears of blood if he knew what the empress was about to do. As for Tang Mei? Someone please pray for her soul.

"Greetings to your highness, Prince Liu." Su Mei Fan gracefully greeted Jiang Liu.

The lady wore a long flowing skirt and paired it up with a wide sleeves blouse. Her dress make her already petite body looked the more delicate.

Su Mei Fan looks adorable and harmless. His royal brother know how to choose his woman.

Looking over at the woman who did not think twice to come over, Jiang Liu interest doubled. Sadly he could not stay long with his brother's other woman. "It seems that sister-in-law have some other business. This prince shall excuse himself."

Seeing the evil mushroom walking away, Wei Yi Yi felt so bless she have Su Mei Fan. She welcomed her with open arms.

"Sister, I saw your Tang Mei along the way, instructing other servants. Little sister decide to come over then and look for you." Su Mei Fan smiled adorably at Wei Yi Yi. "Tang Mei said something about you needing some woods? What interesting thing are you planning?"

Wei Yi Yi put down her book and face Su Mei Fan when they comverse. "We're going to make a swing----- Holy fondue! I forgot about the ropes!"

She wanted to cry as her plans shattered along with her dreams.
