Married to the Protagonist

It wouldn’t be any loss to go take a look.

Chen Jinlin was young after all and curious. She was also bold enough.

This point of her was much better than Chen Jinyao who had disapproval written on her face, seemingly over-cautious. She was beginning to think like a senior as the older sister. Chen Jinyao didn’t think there was any problem for her to go, but she was apprehensive to bring Chen Jinlin.

Yan Cheng narrowed his eyes and could tell what she was thinking. He raised a brow and smiled. “What’re you worried about? The Er Pavilion is a well-regulated bar.”

When their eyes met, Chen Jinyao shrugged innocently.

Her dark eyes seemed to be saying, “And who’s the one who got shut down?”

“…” It was as if he had something stuck in his throat. Yan Cheng grit his teeth and walked to Chen Jinyao, leaning down and lowered his voice. “What, scared I’m gonna sell the two of you off or something?”

Chen Jinyao held her cheek and thought for a while. Then, she said in a playful, almost teasing way, “Yeah.”

The floor-to-ceiling window was wiped clean and the sunlight drew shadows in the living room.

Yan Cheng lowered his eyes helplessly and let out a soft laugh.

The two of them were quite naturally intimate.

Watching this, Chen Jinlin couldn’t help but sigh again.

Probably even newlyweds who married out of love could match this clear sort of sweetness.

This made her envious as someone who lived away from her boyfriend.

“One of my classmates worked part-time at the Er Pavilion before and bragged about it when she came back.” Chen Jinlin silently looked around. She knew the one who was gritting her teeth and unwilling to let go right now was her sister, so she had to provoke her sister in other ways.

She had to let her sister loosen up a little and stop being so old-fashioned.

What she said was true. Many private rooms in the Er Pavilion are not available to you just because you have money, so being able to experience it once even through a part-time job and seeing the experiences of the rich second generations was worth bragging about.

Even though this kind of behavior wasn’t good, but what’s rare is often seen as good after all.

“Heh.” Yan Cheng let out a laugh. “It’s just a bar, it’s not that evil.”

After a pause, he added, “If it makes you happy, you can go brag about it too. Tell them that the Er Pavilion is run by your brother-in-law.”

Chen Jinlin laughed out loud. It’s true, she thought.

They were getting along happily, but the person between them was completely helpless.

In the end, she had no choice but to agree to allow Chen Jinlin to visit the Er Pavilion once before school starts.

Only

A new week of coldness blew in.

Even the sunshine didn’t help.

The temperature in the capital dropped again and everyone outside on the streets was fully decked out. Especially when the sun goes down and night falls, even fully dressed in winter clothes wasn’t enough to shield them against the cold.

During the night, Chen Jinlin climbed under the covers early.

She was on her phone, telling her boyfriend about what she was up to today.

Chen Jinlin: “You know, my sister’s pretty badass to be able to manage her marriage this well.”

Luo Xiao: “I think your brother-in-law should get some credit too.”

Chen Jinlin: “………Hm.”
