Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1367 - 197, Bang Bang Bang (one more update)

Yes, just as Wu Zhengqing said, she was a woman from a modest background. Being accepted into the Wu family was already a triple blessing. How could she dare to hope for a comfortable life?

Yet, such tormenting and painful days made her wish she had never nodded in agreement to her father’s words. If she hadn’t agreed, her father would certainly not have allowed her to become a second wife!

Regret! Resentment!

Yet there was nothing to be done about her regret and resentment now.

Taking a deep breath, Lady Du finally said, "I, I heard from outside that they want Yukyuk to become a serving maid for the Second Prince, so, so I came to ask whether it is true or not."

Wu Jiangtao glanced disdainfully at Wu Hanyu, who knew nothing but crying, and muttered, "With such material, not everyone would even want her as a serving maid." Then he sat back down on the stool.

Wu Zhengqing, who had been silent, finally smiled, raised his hand to gently touch Wu Hanyu’s swollen cheek, and softly said, "Yukyuk, does it hurt? Come, let Big Brother blow on it, it will stop hurting."

Saying so, he actually bent down as a loving big brother, genuinely helping her by blowing on her face.

However, Wu Hanyu seemed frozen, her entire body unable to move. She suddenly remembered the scenes from her childhood when her elder brother always snatched her toys and Silver and various foods, and a single "no" from her would result in a slap from him. When she cried nopily, her Big Brother would gently blow on her cheek like a gentleman, sweetly comforting her.

At that time, she felt that her Big Brother was the person who treated her best in the world, even better than her own mother. She thought that when she grew up, she would definitely repay him by doing whatever he needed most.

But as she grew up, she realized that Big Brother didn’t seem to love her as it appeared. Today proved it indeed. If he truly cared, he would have stopped the elder brother from hitting her right away, not come after to offer half-hearted comforting words. Just moving his lips to blow on her, could it really take the pain away from her face, or heal her heart?

With this realization, Wu Hanyu couldn’t help but shiver and instinctively stepped back two steps.

Seeing this, Wu Zhengqing’s neck stiffened and his eyes narrowed sinisterly.

"Big Brother, I, I..."

Wu Zhengqing curled his lips, straightened up as if the awkwardness had never happened, still smiling tenderly, his voice as soft as clouds, "Little sister, what’s wrong? Are you still worried about those rumors outside? Don’t worry, with Big Brother here, how could I bear to let you become such a famous serving maid? Besides, even if you shame yourself, our Wu family still has its pride! The Wu’s would not produce such a lowly girl."

Though clearly trying to comfort her, Wu Hanyu found his words grating to her ears.

Lady Du, overjoyed, clutched her daughter’s hand, repeatedly thanking him, "Yes, yes, for the sake of our Wu family’s reputation, we cannot let Yukyuk be such a disreputable woman, yes, the Second Young Master is right."

After much tearful gratitude, Lady Du contentedly walked away with her daughter.

Wu Jiangtao, visibly bored, frowned, "Second Brother, surely you’re not actually thinking of changing your mind? Tsk tsk, with Hanyu’s looks, she would barely have a standing in the Second Prince Mansion. Becoming his concubine would really be as hard as scaling the heavens!"

Thinking of Tang Ruyan and An Yueyue, who lingered alongside the Second Prince, Wu Jiangtao’s already restless heart grew more agitated. Tang Ruyan was already the Second Prince’s. And she was smart. Getting her over to his side would be as hard as ascending the heavens.

As for An Yueyue, oh, she was merely a pretty face, a silly embroidered pillow, but easy to win.

Wu Zhengqing also sat down, fastening the button at his collar, his tone indiscernible, "You think that nursery rhyme was made up carelessly? Chen Ruochu is indeed a formidable character, having unearthed so much dirt. And he seems very astute in predicting people’s intentions, even guessing that we would present Hanyu as a gift to the Second Prince. Tsk Tsk, how conceited of him to think he can perceive the ends of the Earth?"
