Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Kai was a little aggrieved after being reprimanded by his father again, but when he reacted, the expression on his face instantly turned sunny.
Song Jia was his brother-in-law? Yes, Song Jia was his brother-in-law! In other words, Song Jia had to call him ‘Brother’?!
Jiang Kai almost laughed out loud. After eating the dumplings, Lu Zhen placed the cutlery in the dishwasher. Then, she turned around and saw Song Jia and Jiang Kai walking side by side to the backyard.
Lu Zhen was stunned. Why did Song Jia and her brother suddenly seem to be very familiar? They had clearly not spoken much at the dining table.
Song Jia and Jiang Kai walked to the backyard. There was a wooden pergola with a wooden table and a woven rocking chair under it. It was cold, and the rocking chair was covered with a light gray fluffy cushion.
The two of them sat down. Jiang Kai placed his arm on the table and leaned forward slightly because he was too excited.
“Brother-in-law! Call me ‘Brother!’” Jiang Kai grinned, revealing two rows of neat white teeth.
Song Jia slowly glanced at him. “It’s not even night yet, and you’re already dreaming?”
Jiang Kai said unhappily, “Hey, I’m your girlfriend’s brother. If you continue to be rude to me, I won’t let you enter our house!”
“So arrogant? Why? Are you the head of the Jiang family? I’ll ask your father later.” Song Jia smiled coldly.
Jiang Kai panicked. He had just flaunted that he was Lu Zhen’s brother and wanted to show off in front of Song Jia. Unexpectedly, Song Jia did not fall for it at all.
“What I mean is, can’t you be more polite to me? After all, we’re family in the future. What’s wrong with you calling me ‘Brother’ in advance?” Jiang Kai said unhappily. Then, he looked at Song Jia with a smile. “Don’t worry. If you call me ‘Brother’, I’ll definitely protect you in the Jiang family in the future. Leave your marriage with my sister to me!”
Song Jia wanted to laugh. “What has my marriage with her got to do with you?”
“You don’t know our family’s situation. In Hua City, there are still a bunch of stick-in-the-muds at home. Call me ‘Brother’. If they make things difficult for you, I’ll definitely stand on your side and speak up for you. With my support, I guarantee that you can marry my sister next year!” Jiang Kai became more and more smug as he spoke.
Song Jia said calmly, “She still has three years before she reaches the legal age of marriage.”
Jiang Kai smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry. 1 was too excited. I said something wrong. As long as you understand what I mean.”
“No.” Song Jia leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed.
Jiang Kai had long guessed that Song Jia wouldn’t call him that so easily. He gritted his teeth and said, “You’ll have to call me that sooner or later, unless you don’t marry my sister.”
“We have to get married, but even if we do, I don’t have to call you ‘Brother’. Will your uncle stop me from marrying his daughter just because I don’t call you ‘Brother’? As long as your uncle is satisfied with me. As for you, don’t worry. No one really cares what you think.”
Song Jia casually stabbed Jiang Kai’s heart with a knife.
Jiang Kai was almost angered to death. He glared at Song Jia and said fiercely, “Alright, you won’t call me that, right? It’s fine if you don’t call me that. I’ll call you ‘Brother-in-law’! That’s equivalent to you calling me ‘Brother’! ”
Song Jia frowned slightly. He could not stop Jiang Kai from calling him brother-in-law. This was indeed difficult. It seemed like he had to let this kid take advantage of him. The two men looked at each other. There was a sense of confrontation in the air.
“What are you guys talking about?” Lu Zhen’s voice came from not far away. Then, Lu Zhen walked over with a tray. She placed the tray on the table. There was a teapot and teacup on the tray.
Song Jia smiled. “Nothing. We were just chatting.”
Jiang Kai also smiled. “That’s right. Brother-in-law and I get along very well. We hit it off at first sight!’
Lu Zhen felt that Jiang Kai’s “brother-in-law” was a little ear-piercing. Her face was slightly red as she said, “We’re not married yet.”
Jiang Kai waved his hand and raised his eyebrows at Song Jia. A smug smile appeared on his face. “That’s only a matter of time. Anyway, as a brother, I approve of Xiao Song very much. In my heart, he’s my brother-in-law! ”
Jiang Kai kept calling him “Xiao Song” and “Brother-in-law”. His tone made it sound like he was some elder. Even Lu Zhen felt a little strange.
There was no change in Song Jia’s expression, but Jiang Kai could feel that the aura around Song Jia seemed to have become a little dangerous..
