I Don't Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System Chapter 638 : Things Aren't As Simple As They Seem
"Hello, big sisters. I'm Jiu Yue, Brother Su's little wife!"
With this brief self-introduction from Little Jiu Yue in Lu Ran's arms, Wang Zijin, Wang Yun, Bai Miao, and An Ning were montarily stunned.
Why only four were surprised, not five?
That's because Xiao Xiaoxiao had chatted with Little Jiu Yue before and was familiar with this statent.
In the information compiled over the past two days, Wang Zijin and the others had heard their junior ntion Little Jiu Yue's self-introduction, so they weren't unfamiliar with the little one's words either.
What truly shocked them wasn't the introduction itself. It was how this little one dared to make such a bold self-introduction while in her "mother-in-law's" arms!
But what surprised the four even more was that the "mother-in-law" before them, upon hearing this introduction, not only didn't get angry but maintained a smiling expression, lovingly patting Little Jiu Yue's head and even praising her, "How amazing!"
Seeing this, An Ning and the others found it bewildering. Could it be that girls being together was considered normal in their mother-in-law's eyes?
Just as the four were feeling happy about this discovery and preparing to lay their cards on the table, father-in-law Su Lujun's response poured cold water on their excitent.
"Little Jiu, there's no Brother Su here, only your Sister Su. Look, boys don't have long hair. And between girls, there's no such thing as a little wife!"
Hearing Su Lujun's careful explanation, Little Jiu Yue in Lu Ran's arms tilted her head slightly, first looking at Auntie Lu holding her, then at her Brother Su in front of her.
Afterward, she held her little head with both hands, seemingly going through an internal struggle. After a pause, she asked confusedly:
"Auntie Lu, I rember Uncle Su saying before that I was Brother Su's little wife. Did Jiu Yue rember wrong?"
Hearing Little Jiu Yue's innocent words, Su Lujun was at a loss for how to refute. After all, when Su Qi was young, he had indeed said such things to this little one.
However, he hadn't anticipated that his son, who had always been a boy, would beco a daughter!
Lu Ran found it amusing seeing her husband stumped by Little Jiu Yue's innocent question.
Although the little one's words had so ambiguity and sounded a bit strange, Lu Ran was more concerned that if they continued to delay, the food she had prepared would get cold and beco unappetizing.
So, under Lu Ran's arrangent, the group of nine quickly gathered around the dining table in the living room.
Today's lunch was very sumptuous, with ten dishes including cola chicken wings, guo bao rou, rural-style stir-fried pork, and mantis shrimp. Each person had a favorite dish!
Due to Little Jiu Yue's recent smooth progress in rehabilitation, Dr. Fanghua had inquired about her condition this morning and indicated she could eat moderate amounts of normal food.
Thus, among the ten dishes, there was also a plate of fried spring rolls specially made for the little one!
After everyone was seated, lunch soon began.
While eating, Wang Zijin couldn't help but observe this self-proclaid "little wife" rival sitting next to her husband.
Actually, during the long car ride to Shanghai, Wang Zijin had discussed with her best friends, sister, and Bai Miao how to deal with this newly appeared rival, Little Jiu Yue. They had even co up with several plans.
But now, sitting at this dining table, watching this little one happily eating spring rolls, Wang Zijin felt sothing was different from what she had imagined.
Although the little one's body was now fully developed, even rivaling her own size, judging from Little Jiu Yue's words and actions from the mont she entered to now at the dining table, Wang Zijin felt sothing was odd.
Just as Wang Zijin was pondering what was strange, she heard the girl nad Jiu Yue speak in a crisp, childlike voice:
"Brother Su, these are the shrimp you like. Jiu Yue has peeled them for you!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zijin finally realized what felt off. Every ti this Little Jiu Yue ntioned herself, she used her own na as a form of address. Isn't this way of speaking completely childlike thinking?
Noticing this, Wang Zijin, being perceptive, naturally didn't ask this question directly. After so thought, she also peeled a mantis shrimp for her husband.
As she placed the shrimp on Su Qi's plate, Wang Zijin blinked her almond-shaped eyes and asked very gently:
"Ah Qi, how co I've never seen your 'little wife' before?"
Seeing the extra shrimp in his bowl, the already guilty Su Qi, upon eting his wife Zijin's almond eyes, sohow felt like prey being eyed by a predator.
When he heard his wife Zijin emphasize the words "little wife," Su Qi realized this feeling wasn't just his imagination; he really had been targeted!
Just as Su Qi was thinking about how to explain and appease his wife Zijin, he heard a crisp, childlike voice from beside him:
"Sister Zijin, because Jiu Yue had been sleeping for a very, very long ti, and only woke up recently!"
Hearing Little Jiu Yue's explanation, not only Wang Zijin but also An Ning and Bai Miao sitting beside her were stunned.
After all, "sleeping for a very long ti" sounded like a perfunctory excuse.
Wang Yun, sitting on Little Jiu Yue's other side, being a boss, saw at a glance that Little Jiu Yue's very serious expression didn't seem like she was lying or being calculating. After so thought, she asked:
"Then, Little Jiu Yue, about how long did you sleep?"
Hearing Wang Yun's question, Little Jiu Yue put down the mantis shrimp she was peeling, and then very seriously stretched out her two small hands slightly stained with oil, and began counting on her fingers one by one.
Seeing Little Jiu Yue's obedient counting, Lu Ran thought of the little one's poor vocabulary in recent days. After pondering for a few seconds, she decided to describe it for the little one herself.
So, during the rest of lunch, Lu Ran beca the storyteller, beginning to narrate the story of Little Jiu Yue from 13 years ago.
When Su Qi's five wives heard that the little one had slept for over 13 years, they were all shocked. After all, such cases of vegetative patients waking up seed to only happen in novels.
Because of hearing the news that Little Jiu Yue had been in a coma for 13 years, Su Qi's wives lowered their guard sowhat.
After all, unlike Su Qi, they didn't know that the little one had been attached to Su Qi's body during these 13 years.
Therefore, they only thought that Little Jiu Yue was still a girl with immature ntal developnt. Subconsciously, they believed that their husband, who didn't have certain preferences, surely wouldn't take advantage of such a girl.
However, this relaxed feeling didn't last long.
As their mother-in-law started talking about recent events since Little Jiu Yue woke up, especially how their husband gave Little Jiu Yue three massages every day and deliberately did one at night, Bai Miao's brow furrowed slightly.
She realized that things might not be as simple as they seed!
