Wife?”

Ling Xiaoyang sat at his desk in the dormitory. His right hand was deftly twirling a pen. The corners of his mouth curled up as he stared straight ahead…
His mind was filled with Jian Dan.
He had thought that she was his senior and older than him, but it turned out that she was even younger than him.
“Hey! Look at your lovestruck face. Which girl are you thinking about?”
Han Yi—his roommate—saw Xiaoyang’s lovestruck face the moment he returned.
“The one that will be mine.”
“Hoho, so you already have a target?”
Hearing Xiaoyang’s words, Han Yi immediately perked up.
“Which beauty has bewitched Young Mr. Ling? I sleep in the same room as you every day, yet I don’t know anything about it?”
The two of them were as thick as thieves. Why didn’t he know that this guy had taken a fancy to a girl? Unless…
Wait… Could it be??
“Don’t tell me it’s Jian Dan?”
Han Yi looked at Ling Xiaoyang in disbelief.
Although Ling Xiaoyang did not admit it, the expression on his face was enough to confirm it.
There were so many pretty girls on campus. Why did he fancy her?
Although school had just started a few days ago, Xiaoyang was already very popular in the school. Not only was he handsome, but he was also a straight A student. He even excelled in all the physical education classes.
He had already become the heartthrob of many girls on campus.
The love letters that were sent to him every day gave the dormitory manager a huge headache.
All the girls trying to win him over were prettier than Jian Dan. Was there something wrong with this guy’s eyes?
“There are so many hot chicks surrounding you every day, but you’ve taken a fancy to an older girl.”
“No, no, no! She’s younger than me!”
“What? How is that possible?”
“I only found out today too. She’s only 20 years old.”
“Erm…” She was a genius. No wonder Professor Wang wanted her to be his teaching assistant even though she had not even graduated yet!
However, ancient times also extolled that it was a virtue for a woman to be talentless. It was not a good thing for a woman to be too smart!
“What do you see in her?”
Han Yi—who was also a guy—could not get it.
Even Ling Xiaoyang himself did not know what he liked about Jian Dan.
It was like a magnetic field that fiercely attracted him.
“Alright, I won’t chitchat with you anymore. My parents are back. I’m having dinner with them tonight. I’ll make a move first.”
There were some things that he did not need others to understand. As long as he understood it himself, it was enough.
Jian Dan stayed in the library for the entire afternoon. She was about to go home when she received a call from Chu Liyuan.
“Jian Jian, are you still at campus?”
“Yup! I’m about to go back! Uncle, did you miss me?”
“Jihao and Qianqian are back. Let’s have dinner together tonight!”
“They’re back? Alright!”
“I’ll pick you up at school.”
“Okay!”
“Mom, Dad!”
When Ling Xiaoyang arrived at the restaurant, Jihao and Qianqian were already there.
Xiaoyang sat beside Qianqian…
A mother knew her son best! Qianqian could tell at a glance that something was up with her son.
“Are you dating?”
Ling Xiaoyang looked at his mother in disbelief.
Mom, your eyes are too sharp! You can tell?? Nothing can escape her eyes.
“No!”
“What’s there to hide if you’re dating?!”
“I really am not!”
“Huh?”
“Alright, alright, alright! There’s a girl I like. But, 1 haven’t started wooing her yet!”
“If you like her, then woo her! What’s there to hesitate about?”
“She’s different from my previous girlfriends. 1 have to take it slow.”
“Looks like you’re serious this time!”
“Alright, alright, stop talking about me. Why isn’t Uncle Chu here yet?”
“Your Uncle Chu went to pick up his wife. He’ll be here soon.”
“What? When did Uncle Chu get married?”
As Ling Jihao’s son, Ling Xiaoyang knew Chu Liyuan very well too.
‘I had the same reaction as you when I first heard the news.’
They were indeed father and son!
“I wonder who she is to be able to win Uncle Chu—The Devil—over. I’m impressed! I must get to know this heroine later.”
“She’s no heroine. Your Uncle Chu is no longer The Devil in front of her; he’s a little kitten.”
“Noway!”
“You’ll see for yourself later.”
“See what?”
When Jian Dan heard the conversation in the private room, she pushed the door open and entered.
“Qianqian, Jihao, hello.”
When Ling Xiaoyang heard the voice, he turned around to see what Uncle Chu’s wife looked like…
“Why are you here?”
“What are you doing here?”
The two of them said at the same time when they laid eyes on each other.
On the way here, Chu Liyuan had told her that other than Qianqian and Jihao, their son would also be joining them today.
Ling Xiaoyang looked at Chu Liyuan holding Jian Dan’s hand and realized…
“You’re their son?”
“You’re Uncle Chu’s wife?”
The two of them said at the same time as they seemed to realize something at the same time..
