Hehehe...

Seeing Chen Xuan's strange expression, Xiao Yiyi burst out laughing, "Brother-in-law, I was just teasing you, look at how nervous you are."

Chen Xuan let out a sigh of relief, deliberately putting on a stern face, "If you dare to mess around again, I'll spank you hard!"

Xiao Yiyi immediately leaned to the side, tauntingly laughing, "Go ahead, hit me, I don't care, it doesn't hurt anyway."

Chen Xuan was amused, shaking his head slightly, "You're really a little elf! Sit properly now, safety first."

Xiao Yiyi stopped fooling around, "Brother-in-law, have you got the tickets... settled?"

"I've already bragged to Zheng Yan, saying you'll definitely sort it out for me, don't embarrass me later on!"

"Rest assured!"

Chen Xuan nodded with a smile, "When the time comes, not only will you get into the venue smoothly, but you can also take a photo with Ling Xiaoxiao, getting a signed picture won't be a problem either."

"Wow! Brother-in-law, you're not just blowing hot air, are you?"

Xiao Yiyi instantly looked thrilled, "If you can really pull off what you said, I'll absolutely adore you!"

"Please don't, I can't handle it."

Chen Xuan waved his hand with a smile, "Just as long as you don't mess with me in the future."

Xiao Yiyi patted her chest, laughingly said, "Brother-in-law, as long as you keep your word, I'm yours in the future!"

Gah!

Chen Xuan almost made an emergency stop, looking at Xiao Yiyi in shock.

What the heck is she talking about?

How did this suddenly turn explosive!

Xiao Yiyi laughed, "Where are you going with that, I meant, I'll be on your side, helping you to win over my cousin faster."

"Here's a little secret for you, my auntie has tasked me with secretly monitoring you, making sure you and my cousin don't sleep in the same room."

"When the time comes, I can turn a blind eye and won't tattle on you."

Chen Xuan sighed in relief, shaking his head with a smile, realizing that's what she meant.

This little elf, quite the talker.

"Alright, it's a deal!"

"From now on, we're staunch allies!"

Chen Xuan chuckled.

What a turn of events, can't say it's not a case of an unintended good outcome?

The "little spy" sent by the mother-in-law was so easily turned, hahaha.

Back at the luxurious mansion, Lin Wanxi grinned mischievously, "Chen Xuan, come over, I have something to discuss with you."

Chen Xuan walked over with a suspicious look, seeing Lin Wanxi's mischievous grin meant no good would come.

"Here are a few terms I've listed, a test to see if you are qualified to be a husband you have to undergo."

"If you have no objections, just sign it."

Lin Wanxi looked at him with a smile.

Hmm?

As Chen Xuan took it and looked, his mood instantly soured.

"Lin Wanxi, are you testing a husband or turning me into a free housekeeper!"

"Cooking, cleaning, all kinds of chores, you expect me to handle everything, how do you even think of that!"

Lin Wanxi shrugged, "I don't know how to cook, if you don't want to cook then we'll just starve every day, can't always eat out."

"I still have to work overtime at home after getting off work, if you don't do housework, who will?"

Chen Xuan was amused, "Not knowing how to cook, and you can say it so confidently? Truly impressive!"

"I'll sign, but you have to promote me up a level to 'in-love' status."

"You're actually bargaining with me? This is your chance to shine, don't you get it?" Lin Wanxi shot him a glance.

Chen Xuan chuckled softly, "I have a habit of doing three 'no's: not washing clothes, not cooking, not doing housework, take it or leave it."

"Fine! Don't say I didn't give you a chance! You've successfully missed it!"

Lin Wanxi snatched up the terms document, "Acting like some big shot, let's see if you can keep up this arrogance! Hmph!"

She turned and went upstairs in a huff, ignoring Chen Xuan.

Xiao Yiyi walked over with a grin, "Brother-in-law, you were certainly bold just now, but you've also offended my cousin."

Chen Xuan looked indifferent, "A man should be broad-minded, but he shouldn't become a househusband!"

"What your cousin put out is a list of terms that strips a man of his dignity! If I compromised, I'd truly become dependent, forever lowering my head!"

Xiao Yiyi chuckled mischievously, "Aren't you afraid my cousin will give you the cold shoulder?"

Chen Xuan chuckled, "If I can't conquer your cousin, it would be more shameful for a man!"

"Don't worry, not afraid of your cousin giving me the cold shoulder, I've got a secret weapon to tackle her!"

"What secret weapon?" Xiao Yiyi's face was full of curiosity.

"Don't ask too much! If I tell you, would it still be a secret?"

Chen Xuan gave a mysterious smile, saying no more.

Xiao Yiyi stared at him blankly, her eyes filled with puzzled confusion.

...

Waking up the next morning, Lin Wanxi indeed exhibited a cold war stance, ignoring Chen Xuan, not even casting him a glance.

Chen Xuan didn't care, both were in the phase of emotional adjustment, collisions are needed to smooth out the edges.

If he kept accommodating Lin Wanxi, it would only foster her arrogance, taking him even less seriously.

This time, he's determined to make Lin Wanxi submit, to smooth out her aloof nature!

Chen Xuan smiled to himself, a man mustn't bow, conceding to a wife is a lifelong misery!

Sister Lin, let's see who wins this cold war...
