Chapter 383: Zhao Yan Causing Trouble

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The two children were already used to it, so they simply followed Aunt Sang and the others to eat.

Zhao Lan looked at the two children and smiled. “They’re as beautiful as their mom.”

She was sincerely complimenting them. After all, although Mo Shen liked Jiang An, Jiang An already had Zou Bai. There was nothing to worry about.

Jiang An’s eyes curved into crescents when she heard someone compliment her children. She shared the same illness as all mothers — thinking that her children were the cutest in the world.

At this moment, Mo Shen said, “I’ve already prepared the children’s gifts. I can send them over on their birthday.”

Zhao Yan, who was eating, looked up. “When is their birthday?”

Jiang An replied, “It’s their birthday in a week.”

Zhao Yan hurriedly said, “Then I can attend the two children’s birthday banquet.”

“We don’t plan to hold a birthday banquet,” Zou Bai said coldly. “It’s just a family meal.”

“That’s right. We thought that since the children are still young, there’s no need to hold such a big banquet. They weren’t happy at the adults’ banquet either,” Jiang An said.

Zhao Yan smiled and said, “I’m staying in the city a little longer to celebrate their birthday. I’ll come even if there’s no banquet.”

Zhao Lan didn’t understand what her brother wanted to do. Could it be just to compare with Zou Bai? But what was there to compare with on a birthday?

Sometimes, she really felt that there was something wrong with her brother’s brain. Could it be that he had been agitated too much when he was young?

“Brother Mo, this is your favorite dish.” Zhao Lan smiled and picked up some food for Mo Shen.

Mo Shen didn’t refuse and said, “We’re already so old. Let’s not use what we used to call each other by. It sounds so embarrassing.”

Zhao Lan couldn’t maintain the smile on her face. Mo Shen was clearly very happy when he heard Jiang An call him Big Brother. Why didn’t he allow her to call him that?

At this moment, the jealousy that she had suppressed was reignited. As the dignified eldest daughter of the Zhao family, she was flattered everywhere she went. She was willing to follow behind him and take care of him, but he could not even be polite to her.

Mo Shen wanted to be nice to her. In the beginning, he politely rejected Zhao Lan and wanted to cancel this engagement. After all, it was arranged without his knowledge.

However, Zhao Lan refused to agree no matter what. No matter how many reasons he came up with, it was useless. She threatened to jump off a building and commit suicide if the engagement was broken off.

Mo Shen didn’t dare to gamble on such a thing, so he could only endure it until now.

However, he would find a solution sooner or later. He would not marry Zhao Lan, so when he faced her, he would mostly keep a cold face. He hoped that she would know that even if she married him, it would not be happily ever after. Perhaps she could agree to break off the engagement.

Li Mei could also see the awkwardness between the two of them, but it was someone else’s business after all. She could only pretend not to see it.

Jiang An was filled with joy as she chatted with Zou Bai about the birthday. She wanted to do something interesting to make the children happy, but Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi’s preferences were too different. She did not know how to coordinate.

Before Zou Bai could speak, Zhao Yan said, “Why don’t we split it into two? The children can play with whatever they like.”

Zou Bai didn’t expect Zhao Yan to be so tactless. However, he couldn’t flare up while he was still at the Jiang family’s place. He suppressed his anger and said, “An’an, the two children have been together since they were young. If they were separated, they would definitely be sad. Ask them what they think.”

Jiang An also felt that it made sense. Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi had always had their own ideas, so it was safer for them to make their own decisions.

Zou Bai turned to look at Zhao Yan. “Young Master Zhao, it’s better if you don’t blindly come up with ideas. After all, this is a matter of the Jiang family.”

Zhao Yan smiled slightly. “Isn’t Fourth Master Zou also interrupting here?”

“An’an and I are a couple, so of course we’re family,” Zou Bai emphasized.

Seeing that the two of them were about to explode, Zhao Lan quickly said, “This dish is really good. I wonder if Auntie will give me the recipe?”

Li Mei smiled and said, “If you like it, take it with you. This is made by our Jiang family’s chef. It uses a recipe passed down from our family. The taste is different from what they make outside.”

This irrelevant conversation finally cleared the air. Zhao Lan finally saw through Zhao Yan’s intentions. He was here to snatch Jiang An from Zou Bai.

They were clearly very in love, but he still wanted to interfere. Zhao Lan really could not understand Zhao Yan’s thoughts.

She felt that after the two children’s birthday, she should immediately bring Mo Shen back to the capital and stay away from this crazy brother.

After the meal was over, Zou Bai also bade farewell. After leaving, Zou Yi and Zou Er stopped Zhao Yan..
