His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 - Jin Chonglin Arrives

The household staff paused what they were doing to bow in greeting and show their respect to the sprightly old man. They treated the elder as if he was the Jin patriarch. And in a sense, he was. A handsome, roguish younger man followed closely behind him.

"Sister Zhiruo, Yuyan, did you give me the wrong time? Look at your household staff. It’s obvious they’re still preparing! Did you call me and my Haohao this early to help out with the preparations? I’m telling you, I’m old already! I don’t have the energy to work! Do you want this old man to break his back, ah?" Grandpa Lu complained in a loud, booming voice. However, it was obvious in the twinkle in his eyes that he was just teasing the two Jin madams. "Haohao my boy, your Aunt Yuyan wants to enslave you today. Go help her out!"

"Hello, Grandma Li and Aunt Yuyan. It’s been a long time. Good to see you all again," Lu Zihao ignored Grandpa Lu and greeted the two madams instead, flashing them a devilish smile.

They were slightly taken aback by his overflowing charm. Huang Yuyan couldn’t stop herself from blushing. Grandma Li squinted her sharp eyes and looked more carefully at Lu Zihao. She nodded with a pleased expression.

"Zihao my dear, you look absolutely dashing. You look more mature now than the last time I saw you," Grandma Li told him.

Lu Zihao’s smile became even more roguish. "Grandma Li, what can I say? I’ve grown up."

"That you are. Very good. Grandma is happy for you."

"Oh, I’m so glad that Liwei snatched Xiulan early," Huang Yuyan mumbled before she could stop herself. She covered her mouth when she realized what she just said, blushing even more.

"Oy oy, Yuyan! What did you just say? Are you rubbing in this old man’s face that my Haohao didn’t get Xiulan? I want to know!"

"N-no...of course not, Uncle..." Huang Yuyan began fidgeting.

A devilish chuckle made Lu Zihao even more handsome. "Aunt Yuyan, don’t worry. Even if Third Brother and Xiulan aren’t lovers, there’s no way I’d pursue her. Xiulan and I are brother and sister. A romantic relationship between us is out of question. We don’t practice incest."

"Oh...I see..." Huang Yuyan felt a little confused at how serious Lu Zihao was treating his sibling-like relationship with Iris. However, she didn’t ask him why because she was just relieved that her own son got Iris.

Grandma Li led her noisy friend and Lu Zihao to the living area for some tea while Huang Yuyan returned to the kitchen to make sure that all the dishes would be ready in time for dinner. Lu Zihao charmed Grandma Li, making her laugh and feel like a younger woman.

"Zihao my dear, you’re still as naughty as ever, just like your grandfather, but there’s something different about you. I can’t pinpoint what it is but I know you’ve changed somehow. Whatever it is, I like that you seem more mature now," Grandma Li said.

Lu Zihao kept the roguish smile on his face, but his eyes darkened dangerously for a few moments before the playful twinkle in his eyes returned. Nobody noticed the quick change in his expression.

He quietly sipped tea, not really listening to the two elders who were bickering about various trivial things. If not for his little sister, he wouldn’t even bother coming here. He had so many things to do as leader of the Shadow Winds. This was a critical time for his group to consolidate their power before the authorities started suppressing them.

About half an hour later, someone arrived. _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

Lu Zihao’s sharp senses allowed him to be the first one to notice Jin Chonglin’s arrival. However, he didn’t really care much about the younger man so he just stayed silent, continuing to sip his tea.

Grandpa Lu soon noticed the new arrival. "There you are, Chonglin my boy!" His voice boomed, catching the attention of Grandma Li.

"Hello, Grandma, Grandpa Lu, Brother Hao," Jin Chonglin greeted them. He walked to his grandmother and gave her a hug and a kiss on her cheek.

Dark shadows encircled his red eyes. He looked exhausted and thinner. Nevertheless, he still looked hot and stylish as always.

"You look terrible, my boy! Why do you look like a zombie? I want to know!"
