Chapter 406: I’ll Support My Wife

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yanchen held the steering wheel.

Why was he always left out? Who exactly was Lin Wan’s husband? Everyone was eager to help her choose clothes. Shouldn’t she be helping her husband dress handsomely?

Besides, he was a business tycoon. He could afford to support his wife.

He cleared his throat, but no one paid any attention to him.

He pressed on the car horn. Still, no one paid any attention.

Finally, he said, “In the future, you will all have your own wives. Lin Wan is my wife, and of course, she’ll be accompanying me to shop for clothes. I’ll support her myself. You don’t need to worry.”

“When I grow up, I’ll marry Auntie Lin, and then she’ll be my wife,” Li Zekai blurted out.

Li Zexuan almost choked on the water he was drinking. “What the hell?!”

Li Zexin grabbed his younger brother’s shoulder. “What are you saying? Are second-grade kids this silly?”

“There’s a classmate in our class who said he wants to marry the art teacher when he grows up. So why can’t I marry Auntie Lin?” Li Zekai asked.

Li Yanchen parked the car by the roadside, pulled up the handbrake, and turned around. He glared at his children. However, he realized that his youngest son had no understanding of marriage. When he was little, he used to say he wanted to marry his older brother.

“Kid, a person can only marry one person, and vice versa,” said Li Yanchen gently. ” Auntie Lin is already married to me, so you have to choose another person, preferably around your age.”

“Xiao Hu said that you can get a divorce!” Li Zekai insisted.

Li Yanchen sighed. It was impossible to explain to the child. He frowned. “Auntie Lin and I won’t get divorced. You will have to find your own wife. When you find a partner, you have to love them. You can’t expect them to cook for you, wash for you, and clean up after you. Besides, you will need to earn to provide for them. You are still so young and need someone to care for you.

Right now, you can’t find a wife…”

“Wah!” Li Zekai burst into tears. “Daddy is bad…”

Lin Wan smiled helplessly. She got out of the car and walked to the back of the car. “Jiejie. There is a difference between a mom and a wife. You can’t mix them up. Don’t listen to your dad’s nonsense. You’re such a good boy. When you grow up, you’ll meet many beautiful girls.”

“Li Zekai, when you grow up, Auntie Lin will be as old as Grandma Huang. She will have white hair and wrinkles on her face… She might even be hunchbacked,” Li Zexuan said.

Lin Wan was speechless.

“Ms. Lin, I didn’t mean that. Even when you’re old, you’ll still be beautiful…” Ll Zexuan quickly clarified when he saw Lin Wan’s face.

Lin Wan sighed and went back to her seat.

“Buying clothes is fine. Let’s all go together. All five of us,” Li Yanchen suggested.

The three brothers in the backseat were silent for a moment.

“Mr. Li, weren’t you very busy before the New Year? With year-end banquets, annual reports, CPI… you have no time,” Li Zexin said.

“Year-end banquet!” Lin Wan had almost forgotten about that. She had to attend the gathering of Chenxin, which was originally scheduled around New Year’s Day but was changed due to the show.

“I can make time.”

“You’re just jealous that Ms. Lin is getting closer to us. You didn’t have time for us before,” Li Zexuan muttered.

“Daddy, you do your thing. Big brother will pay,” Li Zekai said, with snot still hanging from his nose after crying.

“I’m not busy. Pick a date. I’ll drive. Li Zexuan, if you have plenty of money, you can pay for my clothes too,” Li Yanchen said.

“No. I’ll only spend on Ms. Lin and my younger brothers,” Li Zexuan said firmly.

“Thanks, big brother.” Li Zekai and Li Zexin hugged Li Zexuan.

At the Royal Water Bay Villa, Auntie Huang had waited all afternoon.

The wives in the neighborhood knew that Lin Wan was coming back today, so they visited the house one after another.

Since Lin Wan married into the Li family, Auntie Huang found that life had become much more interesting. She now interacted more with the neighbors and never felt bored.

“Madam Lin is really a lucky charm for me, ” Auntie Huang said to herself.

“Auntie Huang, has Wanwan returned?” Mrs. Zhou asked.

“I think it’ll take some time for them to get back.” Auntie Huang always welcomed her neighbors warmly. They had gotten close to Lin Wan and visited occasionally.

After a while, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Han also arrived.

The wives chatted among themselves in the Li family’s yard.

On the way back, the children talked for a while and fell asleep.

Lin Wan breathed a sigh of relief. She closed her eyes to rest but was woken up by the beeping notification on her phone.

She thought of ignoring it, but it kept ringing. The usually quiet group chat of the ladies of the Royal Water Bay suddenly had over a hundred unread messages.

She opened the chat.

[Wanwan, I’m at your place. The sun in your yard feels so warm. Attached is a selfie.]

[Mrs. Li, I’ve circled here three times now, but I won’t leave. I’ll wait here.

Attached is a photo of the Li family’s yard.]

[Little Wan, how long until you get home? I brought you the latest model of a limited-edition massage device. The photo is attached.]

[Mrs. Wang, you really know how to flatter others. You’re even using gifts as a tactic.]

[Mrs. Zhou, this isn’t called flattery. If you put it that way, aren’t you the master of flattery? You even invited everyone to a spa session.]

[We’re all neighbors and friends in Royal Water Bay. We all want to get along. There’s no need to be so harsh with our words. It’s normal for Mrs. Wang to share good things, and Mrs. Zhou treated us to a spa session. We should be thankful. ]

[Mrs. Han is right. Our intentions are good, so there’s no need to attack each other.]

[If you all argue like this, how can Mrs. Li say anything? Wanwan, you didn’t see anything, did you? We’re waiting for you in the neighborhood.] Lin Wan hadn’t even reached home, and the bickering had already started.

“I’ll probably reach home in the evening,” Lin Wan replied. “I feel a bit carsick. I only checked the message because my phone kept beeping. I’m going to take a nap now.”

[Wanwan, please rest well. Set your phone to silent. We’ll wait for you.]

[It’s onlv 2 p.m. How about we qo out later?]

Lin Wan set her phone aside but couldn’t fall asleep. She muttered to herself, “The yard is livelier than the vegetable market.”

“Huh?”

“They’re all sitting in the yard. Should I open a wives’ club at home and charge them for tea?” Lin Wan said jokingly.

“Both options are possible. With your business acumen, not partnering with me to open a company is a waste. How about I register one for you?”

“I was just joking. I don’t want to. I want to live a relaxed life. I have a wealthy husband, and I have three good sons competing to take care of me. If I work harder to make money, wouldn’t it be an insult to all of you?” Lin Wan shook her head..
