The two went into the backyard after eating their breakfast. Even though Nina confirmed to herself that she already likes Hades, she will still not spare him for making her remember the shameful things she did that night!
"So, what are we going to do here?" Hades curiously asked as he can only see a land with lots of dead weeds and also some sprouting weeds which shows that the season already changed.
"not 'we'" Nina smirked "only you"
Hades smiled after realizing what Nina is going to do, she's going to punish him.
"any opinions?" Nina still gave him a chance to backout
"Of course none" he is her slave, can he even say no?
"good" Nina smiled sweetly "reclaim this land before evening so I can plant tomorrow--and, you can't ask your men to help you! You should do it yourself!" Nina warned him, it would be a shame if those people will be asked to clear and hoe the land, she knew that they are not paid to do that kind of job, as for Hades who she knows had never done any farm work, she doesn't care… Well, she cares a little, but she must show her authority! But what if he gets tired later? He isn't used to doing heavy works, she'll just make him a fruit shake from her space. Her crops can remove fatigue.
"Go back inside, it is still a little cold. I'll finish this" Hades wasn't planning to make his men do the job. He was also curious on how it feels to do this kind of job.
Nina was a little guilty when she heard that even if she's punishing Hades, he still thought of her health. She just nodded then turned back inside the house. She will just cook delicious food for their lunch as compensation.
When Nina entered the house she was not planning to be idle. She started cleaning the living room. She removes the dust on each item in the room, after she's done with that, she sweeps and wipes the floor.
Next, she proceeded to the bedrooms. She started arranging her room first. She took out her things that she put in her space and sorted them out before cleaning the entire room.
She was about to go and clean the two small rooms when she heard someone knocking at her door.
She isn't afraid to open the door in this broad daylight and she also trusts the reviews about this place, so no worries.
"Little sis! Are you really okay now?" These are the words that Nina heard when she opened the door. Up until now, Nina can't still figure how the hell did she become too connected to the main characters of the story.
But come to think of it, the original Nina was not supposed to meet these bunch of people. That's kinda good thing because it means she is now slowly diverting the script that was supposedly hers. She just hopes that she can also divert the script of the man in front of her.
"big brother!" Nina happily called Ares "I'm fine now, thank you for sending me immediately to the hospital that day"
"Don't call me big brother if you are going to say thank you. Where have you seen siblings saying thank you to each other?" Ares said while rubbing Nina's hair
"Are you going to remove your hand away from her hair or I will remove your hand away from your body? Choose." a deep cold voice from Nina's back said.
"Brother, why do you look like you had a street fight somewhere?" Hades asked, trying to remove the topic of him touching Nina's hair
Hades just looked at Ares sharply before pulling behind him
"You are dirty," Nina said, hey, she can't help it! It's her impulse okay?
"You are despising me?" Hades said aggrievedly
"Uhm, a little?" Nina answered while showing her index and thumb making the 'a little action'.
"Anyway, both of you, talk to each other first okay? I will cook our lunch" Nina said, effectively avoiding Hades' hurt face "Brother, stay for lunch okay?" Nina added before she ran towards the kitchen. She will just clean the small rooms after lunch.
When Nina left, Hades remembered why he received such treatment from Nina. If he didn't hear a man's voice calling Nina a while ago, he won't come rushing here! This cousin of his really lacks some education from him.
"Brother, don't look at me like that, I haven't seen anything! I swear I never planned to say what happened to our family' s group chat!" Ares said raising his left hand, making Hades more annoyed
Ares was surprised when Hades just turned his back at him and walked away. That's it? No freezing of bank accounts or shutting of his law firm's website portal? Weird and at the same time, scary.
What if his cousin is just planning for a bigger move? What can he still do to make him suffer? There are a lot!
Ares immediately followed Hades after he realized that maybe the latter is planning to do something dubious.
He entered the kitchen first where he saw Nina busy preparing food and didn't even look at him so he passed through the kitchen and went towards the backyard.
Ares was stunned when he saw Hades plowing the yard and what's more stunning was, Hades seemed to be enjoying what he was doing!
Ares observed Hades for a while and he felt that what Hades was doing looked quite enjoyable. Hades took water from the nearby small river then he splashed it on the soil. After that, Hades will test if the soil is already soft before plowing it, he also wants to try doing that!
"Brother, can I try it?" Ares asked, as a man who grew up in a secluded environment and never did any physical job, Ares felt that doing what Hades is doing right now is kinda noble. He also wanted to do that to showcase his muscles!
Hades just ignored Ares and continued to enjoy what he is doing.
"Brother, come on! I will finish this whole land for you! Let me try it!" Ares said, he really now feels envious of Hades, Hades really looked pleased while working! It only means that what he is doing is truly enjoyable!
Hades just looked at him like he was some kind of nuisance. Ares is now thinking of anything that he could trade to Hades to make him agree to plow.
"How about I give you my new car? It's a limited edition and there are only three of them around the world"
"Yeah, only three and the prince of Z country gave me one as a gift on my last birthday"
Ares choked a little when he heard that
"How about the house I built on the top of a mountain? It's 10,000 square meters!" Ares said, that's his biggest property so far
Hades just looked at him like he was talking to an idiot, then Ares remembered that one of the properties that their grandparents left to Hades is a palace in the second highest peak of K province!
Ares can't really think of what to trade to this demon anymore, does this demon even like anything? Then Ares smelled something delicious, is this what Nina is cooking? Wait… Hades, Nina! The only one that his cousin ever showed interest with is Nina!
"Brother, how about giving you my share of what Nina is cooking?" Ares is hoping that this would be the key
Hades looked at him like he was reluctant to part with the hoe "Are you sure? Plowing is hard" Hades said trying to convince Ares
"I'm sure! I will finish this brother trust me!" huh, he was right! His brother becomes an idiot when it comes to Nina! Imagine, he refused the car and house! His cousin was only moved when he said he'll give his share of food! How idiot.
"But, what would Nina say if you don't eat?" Hades now looks a little complicated
"I will say that I've already eaten before I went here. Don't worry brother, I got your back" Ares confidently said.
Hades sighed like he just made a hard decision before giving the hoe to Ares.
Hades told Ares that he will wash up first. Ars immediately agreed, this way Hades will not think of taking the work back.
"Stupid" Hades deviously muttered as he entered the house.
