Fury flooded Mu Yuhaan at the taunt. His face hardened into an expression of suppressed anger, just like an imminent storm, that could begin to lose its fury at any time. "She is not a jammy beggar of affairs, unlike you! It seems like you have forgotten the beatings you received from me in the childhood. I don't mind letting you get a taste of it again."
Mu Ethan swallowed hard his saliva. In this world he was afraid of none but his big brother. At this moment, he could actually feel the dangerous aura his big brother was emitting even from the other side of the world.
"Hehe! Big brother, I was just kidding! Of course my sister-in-law will be endowed with divine favour to have you as her husband! You will see, she will be topsy-turvily in love with you. Everytime, at your sight, she will squeal delightedly and stick to you forever! What's more, she will cook delicious food for you!"
The moment Mu Yuhaan heard it, warmth rushed into his cold eyes. He weighed up his brother's sentences for a while with a complacent smile reaching his lips. His black eyes lit up, giving off a lustrous vibe, and his face was entirely transformed. "She already cooked for me yesterday."
Mu Ethan's jaw dropped to the floor in surprise. What was this sudden change in tonation? As the rear camera was set at the closest, he couldn't see Mu Yuhaan's expression.
A flash of curiosity surfaced in Mu Ethan's eyes, but the overfamiliar sense of fear came back too. He stamped out his spirit of nosiness.
Squashing the previous consideration of wavering, he settled down to help Mu Yuhaan first, lest his inquisitiveness should boomerang on himself. He could just allow himself time in the sheep-counting hour before sleeping, in which to ponder on the information his mind had gathered so far.
"Brother, I think you should wear casual clothes since you are invited at home. That white cotton shirt with a pair of blue jeans would just rock. Remember to leave your first two buttons open and fold your sleeves to your elbows." Mu Ethan added.
"Why?" Mu Yuhaan asked, at sixes and sevens, about these certain instructions.
"Big brother, as expected, you are unversed in this kind of thing. To show off your collarbones, sturdy chest and strong forearms, you should do as I said. Because girls are attracted to these things easily. The harder a man's chest is, the more his woman wants to nestle her head there, and caress with hands."
"Is that so?" Mu Yuhaan reminisced about the way Mian stared at him in the gymnasium, in a very good mood. Nevertheless, next moment, he grew somewhat crotchety by the amount of time that was being wasted on hearing Mu Ethan's blabbering, and felt grateful at his lack of enthusiasm on this OOTD matter prior to that date.
"Yup." Mu Ethan softened his tone, as if it was even possible. "Big brother, now that I have already helped you, can you send sister-in-law's pic-"
Beep.. beep...beep.
Letting his arms fall helplessly, Mu Ethan fell back onto the bed, hugging a pillow atop him. "The moment his need is over, he just hung up on me." He beefed.
"However, at least he called me in his need, not that little brat! Doesn't he always claim to be big brother's favourite? Should I show him now who is actually Big Brother's favourite?" Mu Ethan's lips parched up instantly, the new thoughts dulling the gloominess from a second before.
...
Mu Yuhaan, in all seriousness, studied his reflection, standing before the mirror, running a comb through his hair in right and left then back and forth.
He looked himself over, from all angles, rotating right and left. At last, satisfied that he looked good, joy radiated from him.
Mu Ethan, the renowned playboy of Hollywood, was a seasoned philander and well grounded in coquetry, dalliance and all possible things between men and women, since his teenage years. While an inundation of new women every single day might seem intimidating to many, he was very adventurous with women, and gained vast knowledge about the root of women's nature and their likings.
Mu Yuhaan would never admit it, but Mu Ethan's suggestion was like expert academic advice!
Suddenly, Mu Yuhaan's phone went off. He glanced at his phone screen, and it displayed the name he couldn't be more familiar with.
"Mom," Mu Yuhaan said, swiping the green bar up. He stuffed a small piece of bluetooth in his ear, then crammed both his hands into his pockets.
"How is my little Ehu doing?" There was silent laughter in Christine Smith's sincere voice.
"Mom, how many times have I told you not to talk to me this way? I'm not a child anymore." Mu Yuhaan's voice had an annoyed edge.
"Haha! Christine Smith's hearty laughter rang out from the other side. "You will always be my little baby for me!"
Even though Mu Yuhaan and Christine Smith rarely contacted each other due to their tight schedules, the mother-son duo had a very close relationship.
Mu Yuhaan shook his head in surrender, his eyes clouded with powerlessness and his voice lost its edge. "I'm good. What about you?"
"I'm walking on air, hearing that you finally found someone you are interested in!" Christine Smith said, a big smile appeared on her beautiful face, and her blue eyes shone brightly.
Mu Yuhaan wondered how fast did the news actually travel! With that, he made up his mind not to ask for any help from the big mouth ever again. Who knew, the 'All America Radio' might broadcast every little detail, taking the mickey out of him with sickening enthusiasm!
"Well..." Mu Yuhaan admitted briefly, and went to the balcony.
"I'm so happy for you! She must be a very unique girl to have caught my son's attention. I can't wait to meet her. However, as of now, send me a picture of hers immediately."
Christine Smith knew her son better than anyone else, he didn't do anything just for fun. However, once he set his focus into something, he would only stop after achieving that. Hence, she was damn sure, this girl was soon going to be her daughter-in-law!
"Okay." This time, Mu Yuhaan agreed immediately; and without a further ado, he cut the phone call and sent a picture of Mian to his mom.
