Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife Chapter 1449
Previously on Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife...
Mo Yang arrived at the Chu residence at the appointed time to take Chu Yue away for her vacation. She was finally enjoying a rare period of rest. To ensure she didn't fall behind him, the girl had been pouring herself into her studies with frantic dedication.
Since she was officially on break, Mo Yang couldn't bear the thought of his little girlfriend staying cooped up at home. He intended to take her out to unwind and relax.
When he pulled up to the ground floor of the Chu house, he was spotted clearly by Chu Yi and Chu Zheng, who were standing on the second-floor balcony.
Chu Yi's brow furrowed. "Hasn't that brat been showing his face here a bit too frequently?"
Chu Zheng chuckled, "Sister is on her break! It’s only natural that he would come around."
Chu Yi pressed his lips together, looking rather dissatisfied.
In truth, he was pleased to have such an excellent future son-in-law, and he didn't actually oppose his daughter's relationship. However... he still felt a pang of resentment whenever he saw someone casting their eyes on his precious daughter. He simply couldn't help it.
"Your sister's vacation has barely started. She hasn't even spent any time at home yet! Where does he think he's taking her?"
The glint of amusement in Chu Zheng’s eyes intensified. "I heard he’s taking Younger Sister on a trip. He purchased a villa at the Mount Nan resort and even bought her a sports car. She's been wanting to learn how to drive, so he's using this chance to act as her instructor.
"The sports car is quite stunning. Younger Sister is absolutely in love with it."
Chu Yi snorted. "Does he really think he can just whisk my daughter away with a villa and a sports car? Our family is perfectly capable of providing those things. Where are the cars I bought for you? I rarely see you out driving them!"
While Chu Zheng had mastered driving long ago, Chu Yue hadn't started her lessons yet. A family with Chu Yi's status was certainly not lacking in luxury vehicles. Chu Yue had been excited when the cars were first purchased, but as time passed and she grew accustomed to them, the novelty had faded.
However, the car gifted by Mo Yang was a different story.
Seeing his father’s bitter expression, Chu Zheng’s grin widened. "This... it’s a different feeling when the gift is from a boyfriend! It doesn't matter how many cars she already owns; a car from her boyfriend will always be special."
Chu Yi frowned at his son. "Why do you sound so experienced? Since when did you become an expert on such matters?"
Chu Zheng rubbed his nose. "Well, you naturally start to understand these things once you've seen enough of them. Plenty of my classmates are in relationships. Mo Yang has been pursuing Yue Yue since she was a little girl. Having watched it all this time, I've grown used to it!
"Besides, if I want to win over my own future wife, I need to do plenty of preparation."
Chu Zheng was a much faster learner than Chu Yue, particularly because he was a boy and hadn't been pampered by the family in the same way she had. Chu Yi had raised him with a very strict hand.
Consequently, he had skipped a grade. Even though he was the same age as Chu Yue, he had entered university ahead of her. His peers were all older, and many were already dating.
Chu Zheng leaned toward Chu Yi and whispered mischievously, "Father, you're annoyed that Mo Yang is stealing Younger Sister, right? How about I get some revenge for you?"
Chu Yi was startled. "Revenge? What exactly are you planning to do?"
Chu Zheng merely smiled, keeping his thoughts to himself.
Chu Yi sighed, "Don't do anything foolish! Your sister is bound to marry someone eventually. Instead of panicking and fearing she might end up with the wrong man, I'd much rather she love Mo Yang and marry him!
"At the very least, I'm familiar with the Mo family, and I've watched Mo Yang grow up. I know his character well. I'd choose Mo Yang over anyone else."
Chu Zheng rubbed his nose again. "Of course I know you'd be more at ease if she marries him. I'm not trying to stop him from marrying Younger Sister. But! She is the flower we've painstakingly nurtured for years, and now someone is walking off with the blossom and the pot. Furthermore, it's Uncle Mo's son. Father, can you really just let that slide? I'll stand up for you!"
Chu Yi scrutinized Chu Zheng from head to toe. "What on earth are you plotting?"
"Hehe, Father, what if I go and snatch his younger sister and bring her into our family instead?"
Chu Yi was left completely speechless!
