After surviving my ordeal, I learned that the school beauty had given birth to twins for me.

Chapter 126 He will swap souls with a husky

A boy wearing a trendy hoodie and with dyed red hair dawdled in, clutching a game console in his hand. His hair was a little messy from the wind, and he had obvious impatience on his face.

It was Jiang Xinlan's cousin, Shen Zixuan.

"Mom, can I borrow your phone for a second? I can't log into my game." He yelled without looking up, completely oblivious to the atmosphere in the living room.

"Shen Zixuan!" Su Wanqing immediately straightened her face and glared at him. "Where did you run off to? I told you to wait here to meet your cousin-in-law, and instead, you sneaked off to the garden to play games! What kind of behavior is that!"

"Since he hasn't come after waiting so long, of course I'm going to play for a while." Shen Zixuan pouted, then looked up and sized up Shen Yu, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Quickly call him brother-in-law." Su Wanqing gave him a push.

Shen Zixuan casually called out "brother-in-law," and Su Wanqing glared at him before ignoring him.

After chatting for another half hour about the details of the birthday banquet, Shen Jingshan and his wife Shen Jingchen got up to say goodbye.

Shen Zixuan followed behind, dawdling, then suddenly stopped at the door, turned around and called out to Jiang Xinlan, "Cousin! I'll come visit you again tomorrow!"

Jiang Xinlan smiled and nodded: "Okay."

After the Shen family left, Jiang Xinlan sighed helplessly, "This child is really spoiled."

"Kids are kids, it's normal for them to go through a rebellious phase." Shen Yu smiled, took her hand, and walked into the yard. "She's not a bad person at heart, just a little dim-witted."

The next afternoon, Shen Zixuan arrived on time as expected. Instead of going to find Jiang Xinlan, he slipped directly into Shen Yu's study and peeked inside.

"Come in," Shen Yu said without looking up.

Shen Zixuan chuckled, pushed open the door and went inside, closing the door behind him. He then leaned close to Shen Yu, his face full of flattery: "Brother-in-law, hehe, I have a question for you."

"What is it?" Shen Yu put down the book in his hand and looked at him.

"Um... are all those skills of yours magic tricks?" Shen Zixuan rubbed his hands together, his eyes sparkling.

"You mean those illusions, or some kind of psychology trick? I've seen those 'gurus' online, they all use that to fool people. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else, can you teach me?"

Shen Yu raised an eyebrow: "Why do you want to learn this?"

"Just showing off!" Shen Zixuan said confidently. "The girls at our school are all suckers for this! Teach me a couple of tricks, like telekinesis or predicting something, and I guarantee I'll be unstoppable at school!"

He patted his chest and said generously, "If you teach me, you can borrow my blue Lamborghini for a month! No, three months! I'll cover all the gas! How about that? Pretty generous, right?"

Shen Yu chuckled and shook his head: "I don't know magic."

"Hey brother-in-law, stop hiding it!" Shen Zixuan protested.

"I know you're just afraid I'll learn how to steal your thunder. Don't worry, I absolutely won't say you taught me! Besides, I'm just using myself to pick up girls, not to do anything bad."

He pestered Shen Yu for a long time, but when Shen Yu still wouldn't give in, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

"Forget it, forget it, you're such a cheapskate." Shen Zixuan pouted and turned to leave.

"Wait." Shen Yu called out to him, his eyes becoming more serious.

"Your forehead looks dark; you're about to face a calamity. Don't drive your Lamborghini for the next three days, and don't get close to any dogs, or something bad will happen."

Shen Zixuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:

"Brother-in-law, that's not funny! If you don't want to teach me, fine, but why make up these kinds of things to scare me? I just got a new film applied to my Lamborghini yesterday, and I was just about to take it for a spin! And don't go near the dog, I love dogs, I even have two Golden Retrievers at home!"

"Believe it or not," Shen Yu said calmly, "Don't regret it if something goes wrong."

"Tch, I don't believe it." Shen Zixuan snorted and walked out of the study without looking back. "What kind of mystical master? I think he's just a stingy jerk!"

Looking at his nonchalant back view, Shen Yu shook his head helplessly.

That evening, after Jiang Xinlan finished showering, she saw Shen Yu standing by the window looking at the moon. She went over and hugged him from behind, asking, "What's wrong? Still thinking about Zixuan?"

"Hmm." Shen Yu turned around and pulled her into his arms. "This child won't listen to advice. Something bad is definitely going to happen in three days."

"What exactly is going to happen?" Jiang Xinlan asked curiously. "You said he's facing a calamity, is it serious?"

"It's not serious, just a little embarrassing." Shen Yu couldn't help but laugh. "He'll swap souls with a husky."

"Huh?" Jiang Xinlan's eyes widened as she stared at him in disbelief. "Soul swapping? Really? That's too outrageous!"

"It's true." Shen Yu nodded. "He was destined to have this little tribulation, and he couldn't avoid it. But it's not necessarily a bad thing. Let him suffer a bit, learn his lesson, and he won't be so fearless in the future."

"Won't it be dangerous if he turns into a dog?" Jiang Xinlan asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'm here, there won't be any danger." Shen Yu kissed her forehead. "We'll go pick him up in three days. But he'll probably be quite frightened by then."

Jiang Xinlan imagined what Shen Zixuan would look like as a husky and couldn't help but laugh: "It's kind of funny to think about. He's so concerned about his image, he'd definitely go crazy if he turned into a dog."

"That's for sure." Shen Yu laughed as well. "You'll see when the time comes."
