My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day - Chapter 399 - Chapter 399: 399, too embarrassed to see people

Chapter 399: 399, too embarrassed to see people

After washing the fruit, the two returned to the ward, instantly quietening the room that had been filled with chatter.

After all, some topics simply couldn’t be broached with a woman present.

Seeing the large plate of strawberries in Shi Huan’s hand, Nangong Ci reached to grab some but was immediately stopped by Chu Xiuhuang, “That’s my fruit!”

Nangong Ci could only retract his hand muttering an internal,”…”

Stingy second brother, boohoo.

Shi Huan set the fruit plate in front of Chu Xiuhuang, glanced around the room, and then offered, “I’ll go wash some more fruit, okay?”

“Great, great, Secretary Shi, you’re the best.” Nangong Ci was pleased – he was going to get some fruit after all.

To his surprise, Chu Xiuhuang immediately protested, “She’s MY secretary!”

Once again, Nangong Ci couldn’t help but mumble internally, “…”

Man, this was a stark display of possessiveness from Chu Xiuhuang!

“Secretary Shi.” Chu Xiuhuang, sprawled like an emperor, instructed, “Feed me some fruit.”

Shi Huan’s eye twitched in response, “Chu, didn’t you just hurt your hand?”

“Can’t my hand be sore? Feed me.”

Left without much choice, Shi Huan proceeded to feed him a strawberry.

With narrowed eyes Chu Xiuhuang savored the bite, “Mmm, so sweet.”

Shi Huan:”…”

Meanwhile, Su Wanwan couldn’t help but recall Huo Jingshen’s words from before.

He had claimed that Chu Xiuhuang had injured himself.

And now Chu Xiuhuang was claiming his hands were sore.

In a flash, she envisioned a dramatic scene involving Chu Xiuhuang and Lu Chenyu having a grand showdown, culminating in a hospital stay…

Good gracious!

Su Wanwan felt she could no longer face these two anymore.

Husband, I want to go back to school… Her wide-eyed look at Huo Jingshen was meant to communicate her hint, but…

Huo Jingshen understood her otherwise, “Baby, do you want a strawberry too?”

Su Wanwan: “…”

God!

There was absolutely no mutual understanding between them!

Fortunately, the sound of hurried footsteps from the corridor interrupted them. Soon, the door was pushed open, and the first one to rush in was the head of the Chu Family, followed by an eager crowd of relatives, both known and unknown, to Su Wanwan.

Among them, Su Wanwan recognized only Chu Shiwu and Chu Jingyi.

Upon laying eyes on Su Wanwan, Chu Jingyi immediately turned away her attention with a cold demeanor.

“Bigbrother, sister-in-law.” Chu Shiwu, however, greeted them politely.

Su Wanwan remembered her classmate Wu Ying, who, since their last meal together, had taken a liking to Chu Shiwu and had been pestering her for his WeChat ever since.

“What’s your WeChat?”

Chu Shiwu was taken aback, not expecting to be asked for his WeChat by his sister-in-law, and instinctively looked towards Huo Jingshen for approval.

Su Wanwan was puzzled, “Why are you looking at him?”

Chu Shiwu felt embarrassed, and despite a lingering warning look from someone, he hesitantly took out his phone, “Sister-in-law, let me scan your QR code.”

“Sure.” Su Wanwan also pulled out her phone.

Just as their WeChats had been linked, the sound of Huo Jingshen’s voice rang out, “Shiwu, come out with me.”

Su Wanwan was bewildered.

Chu Shiwu, on the other hand, was visibly distressed.

If he had known earlier that Huo Jingshen was coming to visit his brother, he would have never come with his parents.

Thanks to Huo Jingshen’s command last time, he had had to accompany a few of his female classmates for dinner and then drive them back to the dorm. A girl named Wu Ying had since been pestering him relentlessly to add her WeChat…

So now, at the sight of Huo Jingshen, he couldn’t help but feel frightened!

After a while, Su Wanwan left the ward.

As the elders of Chu family bombarded their grandson with questions about his mysterious illness – questions Chu Xiuhuang conveniently dodged, the room was filled with their incessant chatter.

Coming outside, she heard Huo Jingshen speaking.

“What I just told you…”

“I got it, I got it all.” Chu Shiwu was constantly reassuring, completely flabbergasted by Huo Jingshen’s overreaction just because he had added his wife on WeChat.

Even respect for the old and love for the young came up…

His sister-in-law was two years younger than him, for goodness sake!

Huo Jingshen nodded, seemingly content. “I’ll take your sister-in-law home first, explain to Grandpa for me.”

“Okay, goodbye brother, goodbye sister-in-law!” Chu Shiwu was waving off them off energetically likehe was bidding farewell to a plague.

Please leave soon!

Once inside the elevator, Su Wanwan asked him, “What did you say to him?”

How could he scare the child like that?

“Nothing much.” Huo Jingshen held her small hand, “Just gave him some life advice.”

As Su Wanwan was about to speak, the elevator doors opened at the level below, and a woman walked in.

After pressing the button for the 10th floor, she kept talking on her cell phone, “The doctor says she can’t handle stress. I don’t want her to know about Ye Bei’s cheating. That’s how my dad divorced her. She’ll be traumatized. You saw her reaction that day, it was too extreme. She really didn’t mean it, she just got you confused with Ye Bei…”

Su Wanwan: “…”

So that was what it was?

“My mom is in the hospital now.” Tian Ye said, starting to cry, “That day, I had just wanted you to cheer her up. I was worried you might not agree, so I didn’t tell you in advance that it was her birthday. Yebai, can you forgive me this once?”

The elevator door opened on the 10th floor, and she walked out immediately.

Su Wanwan intentionally took a glance.

The 10th floor was the psychiatric department?

What kind of bigshot has Mo Xiaose gotten tangled up with now?

**

Lishui Bay Villa.

Study on the first floor.

As the time approached eight in the evening, Chen Jin said, “Finish all these problems.”

“Okay.” Mo Weiyi obediently nodded.

Chen Jin picked up the hot drink on the table, sipping while looking at Mo Weiyi.

The orange light poured down from above, illuminating Mo Weiyi as she kept her head down. Her eyelashes were long and curled, her cheeks filled with youthful collagen, and her side profile almost flawless.

She really was very beautiful, a good match for her husband.

A handsome man’s face appeared in Chen Jin’s mind.

Since that fleeting glimpse last time, she hadn’t seen Xiaobai since. He seemed really busy.

It made sense; supporting such a beautiful and delicate wife was definitely a full-time job.

A feeling similar to disdain began to rise in Chen Jin’s heart.

She had been tutoring Mo Weiyi for a whole month now, but… she was really incompetent!

Although she was already in her third year of college, why couldn’t she handle basic courses from the first and second year?

The idea of making the top ten in her final exams was just a pipe dream!

If it weren’t for the high salary of this tutoring job, the way the servant treated her, and the luxury car rides home every night… Chen Jin would have almost quit before.

She couldn’t stand particularly dumb students.

And what was even more annoying was that Mo Weiyi was so serious. Whenever she didn’t understand something, she would ask Chen Jin over and over again.

Once when Chen Jin couldn’t teach her and it was time to wrap up the lesson, she casually mentioned Mo Weiyi could ask her questions via WeChat during the day. Since then, she received messages from Mo Weiyi every day.

It was really bothersome.

She couldn’t understand what Xiaobai saw in Mo Weiyi.

Just because she was pretty?

So being a scatterbrain didn’t matter?

As Chen Jin was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the sound of an engine outside.

Mo Weiyi heard it too and looked up, her voice full of excitement, “Is Xiaobai back?”

Chen Jin immediately tapped on the table, “Focus on your work.”

Mo Weiyi nibbled on the end of her pen and had to suppress her excitement, burying her head to continue her work.

Chen Jin then said, “I’m going out to make a phone call. Call me when you finish your problems.”

“Okay.”

**

Chen Jin stepped outside and just as she was closing the door to the study, she heard footsteps.

Soon, Xiao Yebai entered the villa, standing in the foyer to change his shoes.

The bright indoor light projected onto him, seeming to wrap him in a gentle halo.

He was looking down; his handsome, stereoscopic features appeared much softer as a result, and his tall, slim figure, like a magnet, drew her full attention.

Seeing Chen Jin standing in the living room, Xiao Yebai’s face didn’t reveal much of an expression, he just nodded at her.

Chen Jin’s heart fluttered, and she quickly nodded back, “Hello.”

“Young Master Xiao.” Aunt Zhou’s voice suddenly rang out, “You have a delivery.”

So, his surname was Xiao.

Xiao what Bai?

Chen Jin’s mind started racing again.

Aunt Zhou handed Xiao Yebai the package on the coffee table, “It seems to have been sent from America.”

“Okay.” Xiao Yebai took the package, glanced at it, then started walking towards the study.

Chen Jin was standing in the doorway of the study, and as he approached step by step, her heartbeat accelerated, her nose even picking up a faint smell of tobacco…

But before she could react, Xiao Yebai suddenly seemed to realize something and turned to head upstairs.

Chen Jin stood there, dumbfounded and disappointed.
