Chapter 598 tter Him


    Nina was trying on her wedding dresses in the fitting room. They were two wedding dresses and both


    were called the Starry River. One was white and the other was ck, each of which was decorated with


    a beautiful gxy pattern made with crystals.


    While the white dress was romantic, the ck one made her look sexy and mysterious. When she put


    on the dresses, she feltplete, as though her beauty had been elevated to a whole new level.


    Lisa gasped as she gazed upon Nina''s breathtaking beauty. "I am sure that Mr. Shi is going to be


    smitten with you."


    Nina looked at her reflection and smiled. John had designed both the dresses for her. She decided to


    show herself in the dresses at their wedding with delicate makeup and walk toward John.


    ''I can''t let him see me in the dresses yet.


    He deserves to see me when I look my best,'' Nina thought to herself.


    She then took off the dress. Seeing that, Lisa was shocked. "Why did you take it off, ma''am? Is it not


    fitting you right? Does it feel ufortable to wear? Why did you take it off?"


    "The dresses are too beautiful and I don''t want my husband seeing me in them just yet. I want to


    surprise him on our wedding day," Nina said with a smile.


    Upon hearing that, Lisa sighed and gave her a bright smile.


    When Nina did not walk out of the fitting room wearing any wedding dress, John panicked. "Why aren''t


    you wearing one of them?" he asked with a frown.


    ''Did they not fit well?


    That can''t be. I know her size better than anyone!


    Perhaps, she felt ufortable wearing them.


    That''s also very unlikely as I had thoroughly checked every stitch and seam, making sure that it was


    very soft. I know Nina''s skin is quite sensitive and could turn red at the slightest difort,'' he thought


    to himself.


    Nina saw his expression change and understood that John would imagine the worst if she did not tell


    him the truth.


    "No. There are no issues with the dresses. I''ve tried them on and they look gorgeous. They fit me like a


    second skin," Nina said, hugging him.


    "Then why aren''t you wearing them?" John lifted his hand and gently stroked her cheek.

    "A wedding dress is to be shown to the groom only on the day of the wedding. If you see me wearing a


    wedding dress now, what would I wear on the wedding day? Should I not wear them on my wedding


    day? Is that what you want?" Nina teased with augh.


    John pinched her chin and said coldly, "Don''t wear them on the wedding day if you have a death wish."


    "Let go of me, it hurts!" Nina lifted her hand and pushed his arm away while John red at her before


    he let her go.


    After they walked out of the dress fitting, Nina and John went on a lunch date. Then, they went to the


    kindergarten to pick up Don and Van, where they coincidentally met Henry, who hade with Adrian


    to pick up Cherry from school.


    "Henry, there''s aputer store ahead, right? Or am I remembering it wrong?" Adrian asked.


    "You''re wrong. It isn''t ahead," Henry replied.


    "Maybe I remembered it wrong," Adrian said with a wink.


    Henry understood what he meant. "Do you want to buy aputer?"


    "Yeah, I do. Would you like to apany us, Mr. Shi?" Adrian asked with a smile.


    John immediately understood what they meant.


    "I don''t need to go to the store to buy aputer, I can have my assistant do that for me," John replied


    tly as he walked out of there, holding Nina and one of the kids.


    Once they were back at the house on Stone Road, John gave a cold smile to James.


    He proved that the man smiling in the photo was indeed him. He then ced aptop in front of James.


    James was utterly embarrassed and hung his head.


    "Come on, Uncle John! I was just making fun! How am I going to fit this hugeptop into my mouth?"


    James pleaded.


    "Well, I was not joking, James," John said. "Someone,e in!


    Pound thisptop into a powder and shove it down his throat. If he''s not able to swallow it, pour him a


    ss of water." Upon hearing that, James was stunned. He wanted to run away, but could not.


    He was too scared to even move.


    Seeing that the maid was almost about to grind theptop into a powder, James helplessly turned to


    look at Nina, who sat there smiling as she watched them.


    James turned to everyone else and gave them a pitiful look, but no one came to help him. Even his


    wife stood there as she gave him a sympathetic smile.


    He was terrified when he saw the maid bring him a ss of thick ck paste.


    ''Did she really grind theptop into a paste? Why is it so thick?''


    Thinking that, he became afraid that he would choke to death trying to eat it.


    He was so scared that he banged the table, startling everyone.


    ''Is he going to rise in revolt?''


    Everyone wondered as they looked at him.


    Although James himself was shocked too, he tried his best to stay calm.


    "Uncle John! You can''t me me for this, it is not my fault."


    John lifted his eyebrow and asked, "Is this my fault, then?"


    "Yes! You look good even when you don''t smile, but you look a lot younger when you do. That''s the


    reason I even doubted if the man was you. Can you really me me for that? Come on! Why can''t you


    see your own problem? You still look very young and your skin is wless. Any woman would be


    attracted to your smile, and not just Aunt Nina. Are you really going tell that I''m the one at fault for


    thinking it was not you?"


    His ttery came like a series of bullets, shocking everyone.


    A faint smile appeared on John''s lips. James was using the same trick again to escape from


    punishment.


    Upon seeing him smile, James continued, "You barely look a day over twenty. Whenever people see us


    together, they think that you''re my younger brother, and not my uncle! I have been trying so hard to


    keep that from you, and yet you are forcing me eat thatptop paste. How can you be so cruel?


    Just because you look handsome and young, doesn''t mean that you can bully me, right?" Upon


    hearing that, John snorted.


    Everyone was shocked to see that.


    Seeing that his trick had worked, James sat down on a chair. "Uncle John, if you think that everything I


    said was wrong, then you can go ahead and punish me."


    He then closed his eyes tightly as though someone was swinging an axe at him.


    The room became quiet as everyone stared at James in shock.


    All of a sudden, someoneughed. Soon, another person''sughter came.


    Everything seemed to be solved by James'' ttery.


    James had really worked hard on his praises, and John decided to forgive him.


    Although James was not afraid of bing the family''sughingstock, he was afraid of eating the


    I''m pretty sure that thing would send me straight to hell if I even tried to eat it.''


    Everyone else wasughing, while James squatted beside a streetmp, contemting.


    ''Why couldn''t I win against Uncle John?''


    Emma could not find James, so she went looking for him. Nina offered to go with her, so they both


    walked until they found James squatted under a streetmp.


    He looked like a lost child under the pale yellow street light.


    "James, are you okay? Your uncle was just ying with you. It was ck sesame paste," Nina said as


    she walked over to him.


    James was still angry. "I was scared to death."


    "Drink some water and calm down," Emma said, holding a ss of water in her hand.


    James took a nce at the ss of water and asked, "Are you sure there''s nothing poisonous in it?


    You did not mix any weird stuff, right?"


    Nina lowered her head, trying so hard not tough. James was so scared that he was paranoid of even


    drinking water.
