Chapter 8 - Superwoman

It had been a couple of hours since Zuni was waiting for her husband to return home but there was no news from him. She thought of calling him but then she recalled how she didn't get his number and Special Assistant Lu was not returning her calls. Since she was in a really good mood, she didn't raise hell on the matter of being ignored. 

Actually, she had her husband's number. But she couldn't call him because her husband would ask how she got his personal number that not even his family had. 

As much as she loved to flex her powers, she wouldn't tear her cover so soon. 

[I'm a superwoman. Hahaha. But in an evil sense.] 

Lying on the couch of the living room in the grand penthouse, she was waiting for her husband while wearing that special outfit. 

Would her hubby be shocked to see her in that sexy outfit of hers that his eyes would poop out and saliva would come out of his mouth? 

[Hihihi, she just couldn't handle her giddiness.] 

Tonight, she will be entering womanhood. Her mom couldn't call her a kid then. 

Tonight is a special night. Her wedding night. 

Actually, it wasn't just their wedding night but his birthday that she was most excited about. He would turn thirty in just a few minutes. She had made a cake for him with her own beautiful hands. 

She would be celebrating his birthday with him after five years. How could she not be excited about such a joyous event? 

While having this monologue, she heard her phone start ringing all of a sudden. She would have thought of the caller as her husband if not for the special ringer that she had set for her brothers. 

"Good Morning, Jun Gege, " Zuni said in a very innocent voice. She didn't know why but she felt a little guilty in her heart even though she broke no laws today. 

"Tell me, Zuni, did you do something wrong?" The man from the other side replied. 

"Jun Gege, I swear I didn't do anything, " Zuni quickly replied, her fingers crossed behind her back. "I'm innocent. I'm extremely innocent."

She forgot about the attire that she was wearing at this moment and the lusty thoughts that she was having about a man. 

"You only play innocent when you are guilty, "The man replied from the other side. "Never mind, how is Korea? I heard from Zhixin that you went to Korea for vacation." 

Oh right, she was in Korea. 

Zuni scratched her head as she looked at her penthouse and then at herself. "Jun Ge, Korea is beautiful. Once I return to China, I will certainly visit you."

The man laughed at her reply. "I don't think Uncle and Aunt will let you return to China. Ever since your grandfather–"

"I can always run away from home, " Zuni sassed. It wouldn't be the first time she would run from her home. Her Aunt was the best person who taught her the art of running away and never getting caught. Her family was filled with extraordinarily simple people. 

"Don't do something like this, " He scolded her. "If you miss us,  we will come to visit you. Yeye was saying how much he missed you. Give him a call when you are free."

[Yeye: Paternal grandfather.]

"Jun Gege?" Zuni suddenly called out his name. "Mom froze all my cards. She said I need to find a job. I can't work under someone. Who will give a job to someone who doesn't even have a degree? I will die of starvation. Don't miss your only sister after I'm gone, alright?"

Zuni knew that she was being dramatic but her financial condition was dire. She needed money fast and soon. Many times, she thought of getting a job and then recalled how she didn't even have a degree. While falling in love she failed her semesters. Never mind, she had learned from her dad that everything was fair in love and war. Semester backlogs too. 

Her brother heaved out a sigh. This drama queen!"I forgot to send your weekly allowance."

"Jun Gege, can you send extra this time?" Zuni shamelessly asked. She didn't have more than one thousand yuan on her. All the money she had saved was gone. She wasn't known as a saver in her family anyways. But she was saving a lot in five years, resulting in living a life on a small allowance. 

One would be shocked to know if they knew the definition of Zuni's small allowance. 

"How much?" He only asked. 

"Like fivish…" Zuni said with a sheepish smile. 

"Five Million?" Long Yanjun asked once again. His sister never talked about Yuans but USD. 

[Yuan: Chinese currency. 

USD: US dollar]

"Mhmm, "Zuni reacted. 

Long Yanjun sighed. "Raising a sister can be expensive. I should have listened to mom and got her a daughter-in-law."

"Don't worry, Gege, my husband will raise me in the future. You won't have to continue raising me all my life and spend only sister-in-law, " Zuni teased him. 

"You!" Long Yanjun had an urge to scold her but if he scolded her, she would snitch on him to the other four and they would make his life hell. As much as he knew this sister of his, he was certain that she would tell them the real story after making it dramatic ten times.

A/N: This is definitely something that Zuni would do. I wish I had this collective responsibility committee and wouldn't have these dark circles under my eyes.

I had a business tycoon fl, a duchess fl, an author fl, a studious one and now I wanna write a salted fish!
