This Life, I'm Raising the Right Man

Academy. Zhong Chushan ran back to the study room from outside and said to Zhou Wangshu, who was sitting by the window emanating an air of gloominess: ”Your sister is here.”

Zhou Wangshu turned his head, his gaze chilly.

”Alright, alright, it’s your wife, your wife is here, she’s standing outside. If you don’t want to see her, I’ll drive her away right now and tell her not to come anymore.”

Zhong Chushan said this, about to turn and leave, but Zhou Wangshu grabbed his wrist.

Zhou Wangshu got up and strode out.

In the courtyard, the young girl in an indigo dress with cloud patterns stood with her back to him. She wore the most fashionable style of the moment, the startled swan bun, with a pearl hairpin slantingly inserted. The students passing by sized her up, but she faced them openly, neither affected nor evasive.

”Miss, who are you looking for?” a graceful student stepped forward to chat.

Su Yaoguang wanted to say ’looking for my brother,’ thinking of Zhou Wangshu’s awkward personality, she had to say: ”Is Zhou Wangshu here?”

”Ah, a family member of Zhou Xueshi, no wonder I’ve never seen you before. Are you his sister?”

Su Yaoguang’s radiant and flamboyant appearance, and Zhou Wangshu’s young yet prematurely mature demeanor did make them look more like siblings.

”No, he’s my...” Su Yaoguang spotted Zhou Wangshu, her smile brightened, ”husband.”

Zhou Wangshu’s initially stern face instantly froze, then immediately turned red, rubbing his uncomfortable cheeks.

Zhong Chushan burst out laughing.

Chen Buyu clicked his tongue twice: ”Husband, eh...”

Zhou Wangshu glared at the two of them, then walked towards Su Yaoguang awkwardly: ”Why are you here?”

”You left without having breakfast this morning. My mother and I were worried, so I brought you some food.” Su Yaoguang lifted the basket in her hand.

Zhou Wangshu responded with an ”oh,” took the basket: ”Got the stuff, you can go now.”

”When do you finish school? I’ll come pick you up.” Su Yaoguang asked.

Zhou Wangshu pursed his lips: ”I’ve been staying at the academy recently.”

”It’s indeed more convenient to discuss academics with your peers at the academy, so I...”

”Since you’re coming to pick me up, I’ll go back with you later.”

He says he stays at the academy, and she really lets him stay. Is she a fool, or just unwilling to coax a bit?

Su Yaoguang smiled: ”Alright, I’ll come pick you up later then.”

”Mm.”

”Shall I leave now?” Su Yaoguang gestured towards the door.

”Sure.”

After Su Yaoguang left, Zhong Chushan put his arm around his shoulder and said: ”Brother, you two are acting a bit strange today, something’s off, did you have a fight?”

”If we fought, would she come to pick me up from school?”

”That’s true.”

”With Yaoguang’s good temper, how could she fight with him? If there’s any awkwardness, it’s his problem.” Chen Buyu said from the side.

”Are you very familiar with Wangshu’s family?” a curious new peer asked.

”Her mother is our adoptive mother, so she is like our adopted sister. Come to think of it, Wangshu is like our brother-in-law, right?” Zhong Chushan smirked.

Zhou Wangshu nudged Zhong Chushan with his elbow.

”The teacher is coming, let’s go!”

When school let out, Zhou Wangshu just stepped out the door to see Su Yaoguang waiting at the entrance. Before he could walk over, he saw a student approach her.

”Miss, my surname is Cheng, and I’m not yet married. May I ask which student’s family you belong to?”

Zhou Wangshu walked over, looking at Cheng Xuezhi, his smile not reaching his eyes: ”This is my wife. Do you have any business with her?”

”Ah...” Cheng Xuezhi was stunned. ”I thought because she hadn’t styled her hair...”

Su Yaoguang touched her hair and said: ”It’s my oversight.”

”Let’s go!” Zhou Wangshu pulled Su Yaoguang away.

Zhong Chushan pointed at Zhou Wangshu’s hand and said: ”This guy isn’t honest, he’s holding hands now.”

”They’re a married couple, holding hands is nothing. Even being intimate isn’t an issue.” Chen Buyu said, ”They’re together, what about us?”

”We don’t really know anyone here, and we’ve already played all the games; nothing fun left. Come on, let’s find our foster mother and mooch some food and drink.”

Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu strolled leisurely down the street.

Today, Su Yaoguang was on a mission given by Zhang Zhaodi.

In the morning, Zhou Wangshu cried like a wronged little wife, which made Zhang Zhaodi really worried, saying if she couldn’t be coaxed, she would be sent to sleep on the street today.

Although she knew her mother wasn’t that ruthless, the nagging in her ear was unavoidable.

Of course, more importantly, Zhou Wangshu’s wronged look did indeed make her feel guilty, as if she were the heartless girl bullying him.

A few people came galloping on horseback.

The surrounding people quickly got out of the way when they saw them.

Su Yaoguang turned around, seeing the approaching horses, her face changed slightly.
