Chapter 953 - Sis-In-Law Is Too Intimidating, I'm Returning to Mars

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Wen Xinya was sitting on the couch and waiting for Si Yiyan to return.

The clock on the wall kept ticking and the rhythmic sounds of it filled the empty living room. They rang in her ears and made her feel incredibly frustrated.

Wen Xinya looked up at the clock to see that it was already eleven in the evening.

It had been an hour since they left the mansion at half-past ten. However, there was still no news from Si Yiyan.

Although she knew that Si Yiyan would be alright, she was still very worried.

Sprawled across the couch, Xu Xianghu bit a corner of the cushion and stared at Wen Xinya with tears in his large eyes.

He recalled the events that took place one minute ago…

He was sitting on the couch and watching the television with some fruit and snacks prepared by the servants placed in front of him.

Wen Xinya was pacing back and forth anxiously in front of the television. After bearing with it for a while, he decided that he could no longer tolerate it. Hence, he said, “Sis-in-law, could you stop walking up and down in front of me? I’m getting dizzy.”

He had no idea how he had provoked Wen Xinya, who then flew into a rage and smashed the plate of grapes against his face before hollering at him. “The volume is so loud. It’s so noisy…”

What an innocent television. It was clearly muted.

Kneeling on the couch, Wen Xinya poked his forehead and said, “All you do is eat. Did you reincarnate from a hungry ghost? What else do you know except eating? You’re a man and yet, you’re such a glutton. Aren’t you ashamed at all…”

Why is Sis-in-law scolding me? I only ate a few grapes. I haven’t eaten anything since six!

“Is this how you should behave as a subordinate? Your Ninth Young Master is dealing with a life-and-death situation outside and we still don’t know if he’s alive or not. Yet, you’re still in the mood for eating and television. Trust you to call yourself one of Lucifer’s leaders.”

I’m maligned! How could it be unknown if Ninth Young Master is dead or alive? Didn’t Ninth Young Master already say that he is alright?

Wen Xinya threw the bolster against him forcefully and barked. “Are you wishing that something will happen to your boss so that you can rightfully take over the entire Lucifer?”

Ah, I’m so innocent.

Sis-in-law, you can’t wrongly accuse me even if you’re worried about Ninth Young Master.

Wen Xinya glowered at him and warned. “Watch how I deal with you should anything happen to your boss!”

Xu Xianghu stared at Wen Xinya pitifully with tears in his eyes. He murmured aggrievedly, “Hey, hey, Sis-in-law, I’m innocent. I really am. You can’t do this to me, you really can’t…”

Wen Xinya shivered and thought to herself, What the heck? What kind of a silly sissy is he? He’s acting and sounding so feminine. Ugh, I can’t stand it at all!

Isn’t Xia Ruya the only person who would say such pretentious words?

Why is Xu Xianghu saying the same thing?

It turns out this is a dimwit’s world. Even hypocrites can’t rival him!

What a cruel world.

Is it really alright for Si Yiyan to work with such a dimwit in the long term?

Staring at him, Wen Xinya barked. “You… shut up!”

Xu Xianghu frantically covered his mouth while staring intently at Wen Xinya before winking at her.

Extremely disgusted, Wen Xinya chided. “You’re not allowed to wink!”

He thought to himself, Ninth Young Master, help me! Sis-in-law is too daunting, I want to return to Mars.

Ninth Young Master is out there dealing with a life-and-death situation while I’m being berated by Sis-in-law at home. Ah! I’d rather be the one facing a bloodbath!

The living room was spacious and empty, and the only thing that he could hear was the sounds of the clock ticking, which made Wen Xinya feel incredibly flustered. She kicked Xu Xianghu and screeched. “Hey, are you mute!?!”

Teary-eyed, Xu Xianghu bit the corner of the cushion while shaking his head and nodding again. He thought to himself, Sis-in-law, did you forget that you were just complaining about me being noisy a minute ago?

Infuriated, Wen Xinya kicked him again and demanded. “Speak! Stop pretending to be mute!”

Xu Xianghu stared at her aggrievedly and asked, “What… what do you want me to say?”

One moment, you tell me to shut up and the next, you tell me to speak. Sis-in-law, are you out to torture me?

Wen Xinya threw the bolster at him and exclaimed, “Talk about your Ninth Young Master!”

Si Yiyan had yet to return and she was extremely worried. She could not help but wonder if his wound hurt and whether or not he had bled too much. She was worried that his wound would affect his reflexes and inevitably cause him to sustain other injuries…

Xu Xianghu’s mind went blank and he stared at her with his eyes glassed over. “What’s there to say about Ninth Young Master?”

Wen Xinya pinched his ears angrily and pulled him up from the couch. “Look at you. Your body is well built, but you’ve got puny brains. Aren’t you such a dimwit?”

Does this person really work for Si Yiyan?

Is this dimwit the same man who was shrewd and suave when handling the assaulter just now?

Were my eyes really not playing any tricks on me?

“Ouch! It hurts, Sis-in-law… please be gentler…” Xu Xianghu clenched his jaw in pain. No one else had the audacity to do that to him. However, he dared not get angry or say anything.

Glaring at him, Wen Xinya barked. “Speak up… why hasn’t your boss returned yet?”

She was staring at him in a threatening manner as if she would give him a hard time if he could not answer her.

Sis-in-law, don’t be so unreasonable. How would I know the reason for the delay in his return? He answered, “Maybe… maybe he’s on the way.”

Boss! Save me! I’m going to die if you still don’t come home.

Had I known earlier that Sis-in-law would be so hard to deal with, I wouldn’t have volunteered to come back and protect her. I should have listened to the Ninth Young Master and get Yueze to come here. Had I done that… the person being tortured now would be that rascal Yueze.

Glowering at him, Wen Xinya barked. “Do you take me for a three-year-old child!?!”

Xu Xianghu glanced at Wen Xinya from the corner of his eye and retorted. “Sis-in-law, you’re the one who treats me like a child!”

Which grownup has his ears pinched like this?

Wen Xinya hollered. “I dare you to go on!”

Xu Xianghu immediately fell silent. He could not afford to provoke her.

Glaring daggers at him, Wen Xinya questioned, “Weren’t you able to contact him previously? Why can’t you contact him anymore?”

Xu Xianghu frantically answered, “Maybe Ninth Young Master is afraid that you’d be worried about him and so, he cut off contact with me. Sis-in-law, rest assured, I can guarantee that the Ninth Young Master will be alright.”

What a joke. Ninth Young Master has been dealing with such things for years. How could he possibly get hurt so easily? Sis-in-law is worrying for nothing.

Wen Xinya guffawed sarcastically and retorted. “How can you be so sure?”

Xu Xianghu was speechless.
