The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 493: Master becomes cousin?!
Even someone as calm and wise as Zhan Jingshu was a bit dumbfounded when he suddenly heard this answer.
Wait a minute, his idol first became his master, and then turned out to be his cousin?!
Is this a plot twist in life’s drama?
He hung up the phone, and it took him a while to recover.
When Zhan Jingwen came back from work and saw him like this, he thought he might not be feeling well and quickly came over: "Jingshu, are you feeling unwell? Do you need a doctor?"
"No need, big brother, it’s not that I’m unwell, I’m just..." a bit startled!
"What’s wrong? If you’re unwell, don’t push yourself!"
"Big brother," Zhan Jingshu was exasperated, "considering my current condition, do you think I could be unwell? My health is the best in our family!"
Thinking of his younger brother’s cultivation, Mu Jingwen was relieved and said a bit embarrassedly, "I forgot! You’ve been unwell since childhood, so I’m used to it."
"Big brother, you’re too anxious about the family. Don’t you think it’s about time you got yourself a girlfriend, got married, and had kids?" Mom hasn’t stopped thinking about it lately.
"Mom nags me about it all day at home, and now you too?" Zhan Jingwen smiled and patted his head, "You’ve grown up, starting to worry about big brother’s affairs too!"
This time, Zhan Jingwen came back a completely different person.
He used to be a thin, willful, slightly spoiled young master, unaware of hardships; but this time he returned, not only physically healthy and bright, but also mature and stable, as if he had suddenly grown up.
He’s even grown more than the second brother, Zhan Jingmo!
Zhan Jingmo secretly told him: "Big brother, don’t you think Jingshu is becoming more and more like you?"
Zhan Jingwen raised his eyebrows.
"Mature and dependable, it’s as if you two were molded from the same cast. Honestly, big brother, if there wasn’t such a big age gap between you and little brother, and if you didn’t have a girlfriend, I would’ve suspected he’s your son and not dad’s!"
Zhan Jingwen smacked him on the head, "What nonsense are you spouting!"
"Hehehehe... Nonsense, nonsense!"
...
But now, looking at his little brother before him, Zhan Jingwen felt his second brother might have a point. Maybe it was because he often took care of Jingshu when he was young, now that Jingshu has grown up, his temperament and personality resemble his more than their father’s.
Being a responsible man isn’t a bad thing!
"Brother, I’m a grown-up now. Can you stop patting my head?" Zhan Jingshu’s brow twitched a little.
Going home always means being treated like a kid.
"Yes, yes, you’re a grown-up now, full of responsibilities, even keeping your little secrets, not willing to share anything with your big brother." Zhan Jingwen was still thinking about Jingshu’s earlier odd expression.
"Big brother, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s just not the right time yet." With Master and the Master not having given the word, could he dare to speak?
"You little rascal, you’ve always had a tight lip, and now it’s even tighter!" Unable to get answers, Zhan Jingwen didn’t pressure him.
"Who’s got a tight lip?" Zhan Jingmo’s voice came from the living room.
Zhan Jingshu nodded and indeed saw a handsome man wearing a long coat, donning stylish sunglasses appear. Even when heading to work, this show-off did not forget to dress handsomely.
In this regard, his second brother was just like Murong.
Only, he couldn’t agree with Murong’s sense of aesthetics.
"Second brother, you’re back!"
"Yeah! I had an appointment with a client, and after the meeting, I came back. What were you guys talking about?" Zhan Jingmo took off his sunglasses, revealing a face strikingly similar to his two brothers’, and casually tossed the sunglasses onto the coffee table.
"Nothing much, just big brother always loves to pat my head." Zhan Jingshu said.
"Hahahaha... Isn’t that normal? Big brother has loved you like a son since childhood, no matter how old you grow, he’ll always care for you like his own."
"Second brother..." Zhan Jingshu was somewhat helpless in the face of his second brother’s teasing.
"Just you guys here? What about Aunt and them?"
"In the backyard. Grandpa’s new orchids bloomed, and he took Aunt to see them. Mom was worried grandpa might try gardening with his old age, so she went along." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Zhan Jingmo shrugged nonchalantly: "Ever since Aunt came back, grandpa’s attention is all on her. No matter how many decades pass, a daughter is still a precious treasure..."
Zhan Jingmo didn’t have much affection or opinion for this aunt who rarely came home. If her husband hadn’t cheated, making her upset, she would have remained an unrelated stranger.
Zhan Jingwen reminded him: "Be mindful in front of grandpa."
"Got it, nagging!" Zhan Jingmo lazily sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and placed them on the coffee table, knocking off the sunglasses he had placed earlier.
"Your stuff fell, aren’t you going to pick it up?" Zhan Jingwen slightly frowned at his behavior.
"Why bother? The maid will pick it up later." Zhan Jingmo showed complete indifference, more interested in, "Jingshu, who exactly is Aunt’s son? You’re being so secretive, not telling Aunt is one thing, but why are you hiding it from all of us? Could it be... this cousin had some trouble long ago and you’re making up a kind lie to comfort her?"
At this moment, Zhan Zhengtong, who had just finished viewing the orchids with grandpa, returned to retrieve something and came to the back door. She suddenly overheard Zhan Jingmo’s question and stopped in her tracks silently.
"How could that be?" If it were earlier, he might have felt guilty, but having just received Master’s consent, Zhan Jingshu was completely calm and said, "I’m sure I know my cousin, and I have stayed with him. Everything I said is true."
"Then who is this cousin, and why won’t you tell?"
"I want to, but it’s just not the time yet." Zhan Jingshu looked helpless, "Neither Master nor Master would let me tell, do you think I dare?"
"Just because your Master and Master won’t let you say it, you don’t? Doesn’t cousin want to reunite with Aunt?"
Zhan Jingshu shook his head, "I’ve told you, it’s not the right time. You know my identity, the cousin and I share the same identity, get it?"
Zhan Jingmo wasn’t surprised at all: "I guessed it ages ago. You and your sects with weird and countless rules! Our real cousin won’t probably be your senior brother? He’s got a wife and kids but won’t come to visit. Even if he doesn’t want to come back, he should at least send his children over. Haven’t you seen how much the elderly at home are yearning for grandchildren? Big brother has nearly been driven mad by their insistence recently!"
Pressed into blind dates, Zhan Jingwen commented, "Actually, it’s not so bad, just there’s a bit too much dating."
"Hahah... Big brother, you call that not so bad? The girls mom set you up with almost got directly placed in the company. Who knows what’s on mom’s mind, is she afraid you might be gay and prefer men? Strange women she dares to match you with! If it weren’t for me watching, who knows how many touched women might have been foisted onto you... You are my big brother, if you must find someone, at least choose someone clean!"
