Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep - Chapter 169

While Yoo Shiro ordered the family doctor to reach the villa urgently, Elder Yoo went to handle the guests tonight. Though he gave a gracious explanation, there were still murmurs of excitement among the crowd as people whispered among themselves. But most of the murmurs were about the romantic scene that had just occurred. No woman was impervious to romance and being carried out of the ballroom by your husband and stirred a longing in many hearts. The most disgusted person was however Nora Xu who was finding it increasingly difficult to maintain gentle expression. As a few young girls approached her, carefully urged by their mothers, she gave them a fake smile and passed a few “mmm’s” and nods that she was listening to their inane conversation. But just as she was about to excuse herself, she heard the girls say, “Did you see CEO Xie’s dress?”

At this, she swallowed the words she was about to say and looked at the girl with starry eyes. It was just a cheongsam wasn’t it? So what was so exciting about it? She did not have to ask as another commented, “Was she trying to impress Elder Yoo with such a traditional dress? What a foolish move. Who wears such clothing these days? Does she think she is attending a celebration during the Qing Dynasty?” the other girls giggled and just laughed cattily at this.

But the girl who had just commented shook her head and took out her phone while saying, “Really, Li Na, even if you know nothing about fashion, you need not flaunt it! That dress is the most coveted dress of this season by Designer Ming Ma! He even refused to let the biggest star Sun Luo try it on. That dress has won him many awards but no one was allowed to wear it! It is said to be one of the most sensuous dresses this year! Only the front of this dress is like our traditional cheongsam! Did you notice that CEO Wolf’s hand was on his partner’s waist throughout the evening? Can you guess why? The dress CEO Xie was wearing is a hundred times more tempting than any which blatantly shows skin!”

With that, the girl showed her phone’s screen towards the others and everyone could only gasp. The demure and plain design from the front gave way to a tempting view from the back. No wonder the man’s hand had stayed around his wife continuously. The girls even blushed as they realized that everyone had been fed dog food tonight. Even Nora could feel her face turn red but this was due to anger. She suddenly felt that those words had been directed at her. After all her skin was also exposed to a great degree.. But she was even more angry that her plan had failed tonight..

On the other hand, the doctor gave a thorough check to Xie Eun who still lay on the bed asleep with a pale face. After a few minutes, the doctor looked up at the man who was hovering behind him and motioned him outside. Once there, the doctor wrote a few things on the paper and handed it to Yu Seok,” Boy, your grandfather is going to be really happy tonight. It is not just his grandson had come back but he had even brought two more additions to the family.”

Yu Seok stared at the paper in his hand blankly and then at the doctor who was looking at him strangely. Two additions? He looked at Yoo Shiro only to see that the other man was also as confused as him. Not liking this, he frowned at the doctor and asked, “Doctor. Please don’t talk in circles! How is my wife doing? And why has she not yet come around?”

The doctor paid no mind to the intimidating man and instead laughed heartily making Yu Seok scowl more and Yoo Shiro to be pleased! Now he would know how he had been treated by all these old fogies who were his grandfather’s friends! They never took him seriously and now his brother would suffer the same treatment!

Before Yu Seok could actually kill the doctor the man said, “My dear boy, your wife is pregnant! Almost two months! You say she has been exhausted and busy these days so you young people must have not realized that! I have written a few medicines and tomorrow you must take her to a doctor! I have even recommended her name right here! My friend is going to be a great grandfather!”

With that bombshell, the doctor knocked Yoo Shiro upside the head, “And you are going to be an uncle!” and walked away, leaving behind two men who stood there frozen in shock..

Suddenly, for the first time in his life, Yu Seok had the unique state of his mind going blank. He tried to breathe in the air and even told himself that he needed to be happy or something but his mind was a blank.

While Yu Seok’s brain remained a blank, another person collapsed and fell to the ground with no one to catch him! This was like getting three things for the price of one. Not able to absorb this information overflow, Yoo Shiro fainted with a “THUD!!”

Yu Seok however paid no attention to his fallen brother and walked over him to where his wife was resting while the guards who had stood at a discreet distance rushed forward when they saw their master on the ground. So the little one that would come into the world would hear the story about how when their father received the news of their brother, was calm and how their uncle had gotten himself a bruise the size of a goose’s egg on his head.

Yu Seok slowly walked to Xie Eun’s side and picked her limp hand as if it was made of glass. He had dreamed of having a family with her but every time they took a step in that direction he felt worried and scared, wondering if all this was real or was it a dream. Would he wake up one day with all these things gone? He caressed her delicate wrist carefully and closed his eyes. Kneeling beside the bed, he bent forward and placed a sweet kiss on her forehead. Thankful and worried for her at the same time.

Slowly, Xie Eun came to and opened her eyes slowly. She looked at the room with a frown and wondered where she was and what she was doing. The last thing she remembered was coming to the party.. her eyes widened when she realized that she had fainted suddenly and she looked around in alarm. Only when she felt her hand clasped in another warm one did she sighed in relief and looked at the head that lay beside her hand. She smiled and wondered why she had suddenly fainted and vowed to take a better care of herself in the future.

She must have made some sound because Yu Seok soon woke up and stared at her. She frowned when she saw his glazed eyes, as if he was in shock. Just what had happened in the party that he had such a look? Before she could question him, he came to her and picking her up slowly put her in his lap, holding her close to him. He then began,” Eun-a. Today I have received the best birthday gift from you.. thank you.”

Xie Eun made a face at Yu Seok and poked him,” Have I entered some sort of a parallel universe? I did not even know that it was your birthday silly! How could have I given you a gift? Are you mistaking me for someone else?” She put a finger under his eyes and pretended to check and continued, “Is something wrong with your eyesight or is it a memory problem? Do you think I am your childhood friend who gave you an expensive and rare gift?”

Xie Eun had actually started to talk foolishly because she knew that she was in for a lecture from Yu Seok for ignoring herself for these past few months! But that last part had just slipped out and that too in such a jealous tone! She wanted to hide herself! Could she pretend to faint again? Even as she had such crazy thoughts, her cheeks were cupped by Yu Seok who made her look into his eyes and announced,”Eun-a, we are going to be parents soon.”

Eun-a who was still lost in her thoughts nodded her head agreeably before she realized what he had said. Widening her eyes,she asked,”Wh… What did you say? Can you repeat this?I think I heard something wrong..”

Yu Seok gave her a big smile and obediently, “We are going to be parents..”

Her mouth stuck in an adorable “O”, Xie Eun then had a reaction very similar to her brother in law and fainted, falling back on the bed, making Yu Seok wonder if this was some sort of a custom..
