306 Marry him... marry him... marry... marry him.
What is it like to go with your in-laws to an amusement park? Well, fairly interesting especially when one side of the in-laws is very satisfied with their family member’s spouse and the other side isn’t.
Zi Han had integrated into the Yi family more than Yi Chen had integrated into the Zi family. That is he hadn’t gotten into Zi Xingxi’s good books yet. This meant he was a little nervous when he was around his future mother-in-law.
In Zi Han’s defense, he did try to open a dialogue between the two but failed. Despite the silence between them, there was definitely an improvement. At least Zi Xingxi was no longer snorting or humphing which was unbecoming of a sophisticated lady.
It was because of this that Zi Han made sure that when they reached the advanced intricate version of the teacups ride that Yi Chen would sit with his mother. As to why they were on such a slow low adrenaline ride? It was because of Ming Ming.
She wanted to go on the teacups ride so everybody had to and the whole time she was dragging Zi Han along.
Since a teacup could only fit four that meant Yi Chen could only sit with Zi Xingxi and boy was he nervous. He exhaled deeply preparing himself to survive the longest of three minutes of his life. Compared to the teacup beside them this teacup was sour and sad with one of them looking like he was on death row.

“Do you love him?” was Zi Xingxi’s simple and direct question her voice stern like she was addressing a subordinate.
Yi Chen, “...”
.....
“I do... with every fiber of my being,” he said his expression calm and his tone strong but inside his heart was so chaotic that he began counting down the minutes until this ride ended but what she said next shocked him beyond words.
“Then marry him...”
‘Marry him... marry him... marry... marry him.’
The words marry him echoed in his mind as his aloof expression showed major cracks. For the first time, his emotions spilled over in front of someone outside his circle.
How could he not panic? This woman had threatened him so much that he even wanted to give up and stay away from Zi Han. Now she was handing him over on a silver platter... seriously?
Yi Chen wouldn’t believe it. There was definitely a catch. “I thought you dislike me?” blurted out Yi Chen his mouth thinking faster than his brain.
“I still don’t but considering the alternative,” she said using an old-fashioned tactic that she wasn’t even sure Yi Chen would fall for.
Yi Chen knew what she was doing and knew not to fall for it but the word alternative ground his gears. What alternative? Who was this alternative?
Just thinking of that old pervert Zi Xingxi couldn’t help but get infuriated. Gritting her teeth she said, “You might have chopped off his wiener but he is still very much active and your boyfriend seems to be his object of interest so.....”
Yi Chen, “...”
“You should have just finished him off... just saying,” she continued to say as the ride came to an end. Like she had taken a load off her shoulders, Zi Xingxi got up before asking, “Do you want a smoke?”
Yi Chen who still resembled an electrified zombie shook his head robotically and Zi Xingxi shrugged her shoulders before getting off the ride.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYi Chen wasn’t the only one who was bombarded. These two were like nosy aunties at a family gathering going after a husband and wife separately so they can hound the pair for not having kids yet. Only that unlike those aunties Zi Xingxi and Lin Ruoxi were subtle and polite about it.
What did Lin Ruoxi say to him? Well, she asked, “Are you two happy together?” and once Zi Han answered yes, she said, “then wouldn’t it be nice to get married.”
Yes, she said that and Zi Han’s expression was even more bloodless than Yi Chen’s. When he got off that teacup ride his face looked like he had just come off the most terrifying rollercoaster ride in the federation. That rollercoaster ride also happened to be right behind him. Now he really wanted to go on that vomit inducing ride.
He might have been a little shaken but he could still control himself thus when he grabbed Yi Chen’s hand he seemed as normal as possible. Zi Han was about to ask Yi Chen if he was okay because his expression didn’t seem right as well but Yi Chen pulled him to the side and pressed him against a wall.
Zi Han was a little startled but he didn’t say anything. He just watched as Yi Chen glanced around slightly before kissing his lips his actions domineering and possessive.
Zi Han had been with Yi Chen for so long that he could now tell the difference between each and every kiss Yi Chen initiated.
There was the ‘I missed you, where have you been’ kiss, ‘I love you but I am busy’ kiss, and the ‘I am horny let’s fuck’ kiss among many.
This kiss here was an ‘I am jealous and need appeasement’ kiss but what did his mother say that had Yi Chen eating his face off in public?
Zi Han let him vent it all out and in truth, he was getting into it. This whole kissing in public came with its own rush of endorphins thus when Yi Chen stopped kissing Zi Han was a little disappointed.
He licked his slightly swollen lips while glancing around. A few people were looking and one girl who got caught staring gave him a thumbs up before running away.
Yi Chen embraced Zi Han his chin resting on his shoulder. His arms wound around Zi Han’s waist tightly as he exhaled as though offloading all his frustrations.
