I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

Chapter 557

Mu Mingtang was immediately embarrassed, but Xie Xuanchen, as if to take credit, pulled Mu Mingtang to his side and said, “Mom, I got to know what a begonia flower is now. Look, I put it on her, isn’t it pretty?”

Madam Yin came over to take a look and stared at Xie Xuanchen with a surprised look, “It’s true that ‘a man should be perceived with new eyes after three days of separation’— how did you become this sensible?”

Mu Mingtang was forced to be watched by the crowd while Xie Xuanchen continued to hold her wrist tightly, making her extremely embarrassed for a long while.

Xie Xuanji looked at the two people in front of him with livid expressions. He glared at the flower in Mu Mingtang’s hair and the two people’s tightly clasped hands with eyes that were almost on fire.

Xie Xuanchen accepted Madam Yin’s compliment calmly but Xie Yi saw it and coughed. After attracting everyone’s attention, he said, “Xie Xuanchen has been spoiled by us and no longer follows any rules, but it’s a good thing that Xuanji is here. Let’s have Xuanji and Xie Xuanchen take classes together in the future. I heard that Xuanji is very knowledgeable and respects his teachers. It would be just right for Xie Xuanchen to learn well from him(1).”

(T/N: Gosh, Xie Yi is so cold to his son that I realised he’s been only calling him by his full name? Like, he called his nephew by his first name and praised him, but wouldn’t do the same for our boy. )

Mu Mingtang was a little surprised to hear what Xie Yi said and couldn’t help but look back at Xie Xuanchen. She often came to the Xie family’s house these days and knew by now that Xie Xuanchen was the only son in the family. And to be fair, his talents in all aspects were definitely top-notch among his peers. Mu Mingtang thought that the family would love their sole heir very much, but unexpectedly, Xie Yi was picky about Xie Xuanchen as soon as he opened his mouth.

And it was even done in front of so many guests.

It’s probably a habit for Xie Yi to treat his son harshly.

Mu Mingtang’s lips moved slightly before she finally sighed secretly and said nothing. Every family had its own problems. She was an outsider, so she should not interfere in the Xie family’s parenting affairs.

As expected, Xie Xuanchen didn’t care about Xie Yi’s harsh criticism, obviously used to it. But when he heard that Xie Xuanji would have classes with him in the future, his eyebrows raised, and he finally looked at his cousin who abruptly appeared out of nowhere.@@novelbin@@

Xie Xuanji was used to Xie Yi’s partiality. He stared at Xie Xuanchen’s hand, inexplicably glaring at him, when he suddenly felt his cousin looking at him.

Xie Xuanji looked up and saw the familiar face that brought him a lot of pressure in his previous life. It felt like he had returned to the dark days of his life when he was suppressed by Xie Xuanchen. He was not in a good mood. Especially now, this person was still holding his wife’s hand.

However, at this time, their family had not yet made a fortune, which meant that he still had to deal with Xie Yi and his son. Xie Xuanji suppressed his inner displeasure and asked with a smile with his best attempt at making a gentle expression, “Second Brother, what’s wrong?”
