✰REBIRTH OF THE FILM EMPEROR'S BELOVED WIFE✰

Chapter 9-10

Chapter 9 — Too Slow

Aside from her grandfather, parents, and brother, Su Yanyi’s family also included that seemingly virtuous sister-in-law of hers. In Su Yanyi’s past life, she never paid attention to her sister-in-law because that woman wasn’t close nor intimate with Su Yanyi’s older brother.

It seemed that when he married Wang Zhirou, he had been thinking along the same lines as Su Yanyi—it was about time, and there was that odd family rule to consider. Therefore, he’d simply found himself a docile wife with a suitable family background.

After the marriage, the husband-and-wife pair didn’t interact much. They later moved out of the manor, further reducing Su Yanyi’s chances of seeing that woman.

Only, who would’ve expected that woman to be another one of the Wang family’s chess pieces? The Wang family wanted to infiltrate and then consume the Su family—how wishful!

Wang Zhirou, Wang Zhilin, and the entire Wang family… Su Yanyi kept this debt firmly in her heart.

In the evening, most of the Su family members returned. Grandpa Su, Father Su, and Mother Su filed in. Nothing could be done about Brother Su since he was busy abroad. As for Wang Zhirou, her whereabouts were a mystery.

However, Su Yanyi wasn’t worried as she peacefully ate dinner with her grandpa and parents.

Grandpa Su was a very lively elder, and he was also the fondest of Su Yanyi. While they were eating, he couldn’t help but ask, “Lil’ Yi, where’s Jiran? He didn’t come back with you?”

“We’ll come together next time.” Today, she came back on impulse, so she forgot to bring Qin Jiran along.

Her response surprised Grandpa Su. Every other time he asked a question like this, he would either receive a rejection or just plain silence. Su Yanyi’s response this time made Grandpa Su’s eyes shine.

Cheerfully, he said, “Then I’ll wait for the two of you to come back and see Grandpa. Jiran is a pretty good child.”

No one in the Su family was stupid. They were aware of how the relationship was between Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran. Despite their traditional family rules, the Su family was actually a very open-minded family.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have allowed Su Yanyi to marry Qin Jiran, who had been a newcomer at the time of their marriage. Not to mention, he was an orphan.

Father Su and Mother Su were both listening from the sidelines, and their eyes also began to shine with anticipation.

Mother Su said, “That’s right, bring Lil’ Ran here and have him sign a few autographs for me. The little rascals in my company adore him. Oh, yes, and I heard that he professed to you today on his official webpage? Hehe, if you ask me, I’d say that it’s time for the two of you to disclose your relationship already. That way, people will stop coming to me asking if you’re married yet. They all want to introduce you to a boyfriend.”

Father Su chimed in, “Yeah, when do you plan on disclosing it and letting our friends celebrate a bit?”

Very few people knew about the marriage between Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran. Wang Zhirou was the only reason why the Wang family knew about it.

“Not now. I’m a bit busy right now,” Su Yanyi responded with uncertainty. She disliked formalization. She and Qin Jiran were married, so they were husband-and-wife. To her, it was as simple as that. There was no need to make a great show out of it.

As for whether or not their relationship should be publicized, Su Yanyi had never thought of it before. However, she switched over to focus instead on the other piece of “news” she’d heard from her mother just then.
