His True Colors

Chapter 2

Han Jingru simply nodded with a smile and the man seemed to be completely unbothered.

When Su Yimo looked at Han Jingru's expression, she dreaded the marriage and wanted to leave him even more. Even if the man didn't have any esteemed background, at the very least he should have some competence or abilities to himself. It had been three years. She had given him more than enough chances but the man simply busied himself with housework at home. There was nothing else he did aside from cooking and cleaning.

As the two of them entered the living room, most of the relatives of the Su family were already there and it was a lively atmosphere.

"Yimo, you finally came!"

"It is grandmother's birthday party, why are you so late?"

"Perhaps, did you go and prepare some kind of surprise for her?"

The relatives were greeting Su Yimo affectionately but they completely ignored Han Jingru.

But the man had gotten used to it. It was even better to be ignored than to be insulted.

However, there would always be people who wanted to annoy him. His cousin, Su Ruijin. Whenever they met, the man would try everything to make things difficult for Han Jingru. Not only that, he would denigrate and revile Han Jingru in the most abusive manner. The reason why Han Jingru had such an excoriated reputation in Yun city was all thanks to Su Ruijin. The man was greatly motivated to speak bad about Han Jingru to just anyone.

"Han Jingru, don't tell me the thing you are carrying is the birthday present for grandmother?" Su Ruijin looked at Han Jingru with a scornful smile. It was just a small box and the man wrapped it using present paper. Just one look and they could tell that it was a cheap gift.

"Exactly." Han Jingru admitted proudly.

Su Ruijin simply sneered, "What is that? Don't tell me you picked it up from the roadside?"

Han Jingru shook his head and answered, "I bought it from a gift shop."

Although the man answered honestly, what replied him was a laughter in the living room. Su Yimo had a pained expression. It wasn't even five minutes after they reached and she would need to be humiliated because of Han Jingru.

However, most of the time, Su Yimo wouldn't make any reply. The woman would normally distance herself from Han Jingru and thought of him as a stranger. She would not care how Han Jingru embarrassed himself as long as it didn't involve her.

"Are you here to make a joke? It is grandmother's eighty years' old birthday. Can't you just spend more effort in preparing your present?" Su Ruijin walked towards a coffee table in the living room and there were all sorts of valuable gifts on it. Just by one look, they could tell that all of them were of extreme value and it was too far apart when compared with Han Jingru's present box.

"Take a look at what I prepared for grandmother! An aged Pu'er, do you even know how much this cost? Eighty-eight hundred thousand!" Su Rong Jin said conceitedly.

"Wow, sounds good." Han Jingru simply glanced at Su Yimo. The woman had reminded him to speak less, hence, the man was answering minimally.

Su Ruijin was trying to exalt himself by stepping on Han Jingru and the man continued, "Even just a scrape or small wisp of this could worth more than your present. Do you agree, you scum?"

Han Jingru simply smiled and made no response, but the rest of the crowd was sneering at him.

Although Su Yimo was determined not to interfere with Han Jingru's matter, the man was still her husband with marriage cert. Even if she hasn't had any marital relationship with Han Jingru, it would be just insulting for her when the relatives were ridiculing Han Jingru right in front of her.
