My Brilliant CEO Wife

Chapter 726 - 727: Who Cares More?

In that moment, Yun Hao understood what people on the internet meant when they said, "Asian witchcraft." Makeup is truly one of those sorceries!No wonder there are rumors about a man who married a beautiful wife, only to be so frightened on their wedding night after she removed her makeup that he was out cold!

Yun Hao used to think it was just hearsay, but now it seems there's always some truth to rumors!

Thankfully, after Li Si removed her makeup, she still looked decent. To be honest, she looked much better than her previous punk style!

After returning to the sofa, Yun Hao briefly mentioned to Chu Yan about the two million he spent at the bar this morning, leaving the rest for Chu Yan to explain herself!

During dinner, Chu Yan didn't say much. Chu Tian sat with Li Si and didn't dare to say much either. Thanks to Aunt Wu's return, everyone happily shared a joyful dinner!

Later, Yun Hao dragged Ren Yueshan to the kitchen to help Aunt Wu with the dishes. He knew he couldn't intervene in how Chu Yan would deal with Chu Tian and Li Si.

"Uncle, why did you drag me in here? I was ready with my snacks to watch the drama!" Ren Yueshan angrily scrubbed the metal bowl in her hand, looking as if the bowl was the uncle who upset her!

"Watch the drama? Aren't you afraid your sister Yan might get so angry she might slap you too?" Yun Hao teased Ren Yueshan with a smile.

"No way, someone as adorable and lovable as me, sister Yan couldn't bear to hit me!" Ren Yueshan said, placing her hands under her chin like a flower, blinking her big eyes mischievously at Yun Hao!

"Really? Then go ahead and watch the drama. But if you get hit, don't cry!"

"Fine, you said it, I'm going to watch the drama!" Ren Yueshan jumped up happily, removed her gloves, and was about to walk into the living room, but stopped dead in her tracks at the kitchen door when she heard the voices from the living room!

"Chu Tian, do you think you have wings now? How dare you speak to me like that?" Chu Yan's voice was cold and authoritative, not allowing any doubt!

"Sis, I..." came Chu Tian's timid reply from the living room.

"What do you mean 'I'? Get out immediately! I don't want to see you for three days. When you come back, I expect an answer from you!"

With Chu Yan's order, Chu Tian left hurriedly with Li Si!

"Uh, I better go back to washing dishes. Someone as adorable as me loves doing chores!" Ren Yueshan sheepishly returned to Yun Hao's side and silently put her gloves back on.

Seeing Ren Yueshan's frightened look, Yun Hao found it amusing. In this house, only Chu Yan seemed to have the authority to keep her in check, especially after giving her a stern warning when she first returned!

"You're not going to watch the drama anymore?" Yun Hao asked with interest.

"Nope! I'll finish washing the dishes and then go play games in my room!"

"Alright, I'll sit outside for a while!" Yun Hao chuckled and walked out of the kitchen!

"Darling wife, why are you so angry?" Yun Hao sat on the sofa, peeled a piece of candy for Chu Yan sitting with her arms crossed, and said, "Have some candy; it will lift your mood."

"It's all your fault going to the bar to save him. It would've been better if he got taken to the police station; he's such a worry!" Chu Yan put the candy in her mouth and glared at Yun Hao, then sighed, laying her head on his shoulder and wrapping her arms around his.

"It's all my fault; I should have just killed that woman back then!" Yun Hao echoed her words and signaled Zhao Shishi and Tang Rou to help console her.

"But wife, I think this time Little Tian might be genuinely moved. Look, he even dared to argue with you for this woman!"

"Hmph, that's exactly why I'm upset. How could he argue with me over a woman he only met a day ago? Has he forgotten who's been giving him money when he's broke over the years? Who's been cleaning up his messes when he gets into fights outside?"

Hearing Chu Yan's words, Yun Hao understood. Chu Yan was upset with Chu Tian or perhaps jealous of that woman. But it's a kind of sibling jealousy, unrelated to romance.

It's similar to how many single-parent boys find it challenging to get a girlfriend. If they can't smooth out mother-in-law relations, it often leads to conflict.

The many mother-in-law disputes usually arise because, for a long time, the only important woman in a man's life was his mom. Suddenly, there's another woman taking up almost all that space, leading to the mom's displeasure!

"Darling wife, Little Tian is grown now. You can't keep controlling him like you used to; you have your own family now," Yun Hao patiently advised.

"Even so, but... but my husband doesn't love me!" Chu Yan initially wanted to say, "But my husband isn't solely mine," but she stopped, worried Zhao Shishi and Tang Rou would misunderstand her complaint!

"Oh come on, he doesn't love you? Look, he's got you in his arms!" interjected Zhao Shishi.

"Yeah, and I actually think Sister Yan doesn't seem to like Yun Hao that much; otherwise, why would she care more about her brother than Yun Hao?"

Tang Rou slyly added.

"You two stop making things up! It's just that since childhood, my father never cared for me, and I only had this one brother who was somewhat good to me. So I'm very concerned about his marriage. What if he brings home some inappropriate woman?"

Chu Yan hastily tried to explain, genuinely worried that Yun Hao might misunderstand!

"My darling wife, you've fallen for their tricks. How could I overthink? Did you forget about Su Qiao? Your concern for Little Tian is like mine for Su Qiao. I once almost killed that guy named Feng Chao in a rage!

But what happened? Su Qiao got so angry she stabbed me and left in a huff. Since then, there's been no news of her, not even from those I sent to protect her. Ever since, there's been no word from her!"

Yun Hao gently scratched Chu Yan's small nose while softly explaining.

Just as he said, he truly understood Chu Yan's sibling bond with Chu Tian, akin to his bond with Su Qiao!
