Yin Fu smiled at Mo Xifeng who was looking at her with slight confusion, he knew that he was overstepping his limits here but he wanted to test his wife today. He wanted to see just how carefree she was when it came to him and the other two mers who were staying in the house.
" I brought you some chicken soup," Yin Fu told Mo Xifeng who looked at the container that her brother-in-law was holding in his hands. " I heard from father-in-law that you were feeling under the weather this afternoon which is why I brewed this soup for you all afternoon, sister-in-law."
His words were polite and Yin Fu never once tried to touch Mo Xifeng acting like a polite elder brother but Mo Xifeng still felt that something was weird about this, she turned to look at her sister who was calmly sitting on the stone without a hint of anger on her face like she had in the past and then turned to look at Yin Fu before she politely shook her head and declined, " I am thankful, that you thought about me brother in law but I am fine, there is nothing wrong with me. I only sneezed because something went inside my nose and nothing else."
Her gaze fell on the container and then she smilingly added, " As for this soup, I think you should keep it for tonight's dinner. We all will drink it after returning from work."
Though she and Yin Fu were completely innocent, Mo Xifeng did not want her sister to mistake their relationship like the last time. She only cared for the three mers because she did not want them to divorce her sister and leave her alone, which was why she often reminded her sister to take care of her husbands by bringing them this and that but her sister would misunderstand her thinking that she was interested in her husbands when all Mo Xifeng wanted to maintain the relationship among their family without breaking them.
Yin Fu was slightly dejected when he heard Mo Xifeng refuse him but this was how Mo Xifeng was even though he had tried many times to make advances on the latter, Mo Xifeng had always kept him and the others at bay with a polite attitude. She cared for them but that was only because the three of them were married to Mo Qiang and nothing else!
If they were to divorce Mo Qiang, Yin Fu was quite certain that Mo Xifeng might never look their way. Because even if Mo Xifeng was disappointed in her sister, she still respected Mo Qiang as her elder sister and now that Mo Qiang was finally acting like a proper sister, Mo Xifeng was only getting more and more protective of her subconsciously.
" Then I will go and talk with my wife a little," Yin Fu immediately hitched his lips in a smile before he turned to look at Mo Qiang who was not even looking at him. Let's see how long his wife would be able to act nonchalant, he wanted to see if he was to rub the fact that he brought the soup for Mo Xifeng, will she be able still to stay as calm as she was now.
" Of course," Mo Xifeng was more than happy when she saw that Yin Fu was willing to talk to Mo Qiang, after all, she did not want to see her family break.
As a child who was abandoned by her father on the streets such that her father could marry another rich woman, Mo Xifeng cared about having a closely tied family the most.
