Chapter 294: Hasty!

Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Hasty!

Ding Lijuan couldn’t stop her tears, feeling that Ding Liang’s fall into his current predicament was entirely her fault, filling her heart with guilt.

Ding Liang also put on a helpless expression, "It’s okay, Aunt, a little suffering like this is nothing."

"It’s just that, in my current state, barely able to fend for myself, I’m afraid I won’t be able to fulfill my filial duties toward you, Aunt."

"Aunt, please don’t blame me..."

As Ding Liang spoke, he even started to wipe away tears.

Seeing Ding Liang like this, Ding Lijuan felt even more upset. "Xiao Liang..."

"Alright, Aunt, I won’t talk anymore. I have to rush back, or else the manager will scold me again!"

Ding Liang’s face was etched with bitterness, looking utterly tormented.

With that, Ding Liang raised the car window and with a rev of the engine, he drove straight into the underground parking garage.

"Xiao Liang..."

Watching the car disappear into the distance, Ding Lijuan felt terribly heartbroken.

However, Han Bowwen could not stand it anymore. "What nonsense about eating leftovers and washing dishes - as I see it, this kid is clearly lying to everyone!"

At these words, Ding Lijuan suddenly screamed as if her tail had been stepped on, "What are you talking about! Xiao Liang has fallen so low that he’s eating other people’s leftovers, and you still dare to accuse him of lying, Han Bowwen, do you have any humanity at all!"

Han Bowwen was furious, "What time is this, and you still believe his nonsense?!"

"That night at the casino, I clearly remember he had quite a few chips in his hand, and then they all disappeared."

"Now I think that money was definitely pocketed by that little bastard!"

Had Han Bowwen not spoken, it might have been fine, but his words were like pouring oil on the fire.

Ding Lijuan was enraged, slapping him sharply across the face. "Shut up!"

"It’s your own lack of skill that made you lose the money, and you dare to blame Xiao Liang, have you no shame at all!"

"So incompetent, you’ve made me homeless and without food to eat, why did I ever marry you, you useless thing!"

Ding Lijuan’s face twisted ferociously, like a lioness in a fury.

Han Bowwen’s eyes turned bloodshot with anger.

If it hadn’t been for Ding Liang, if it hadn’t been for Ding Lijuan’s extreme favoritism towards him, they wouldn’t have ended up in this mess.

He couldn’t believe Ding Lijuan was still standing on the other side, and was now even hitting him for that little bastard Ding Liang!

Han Bowwen was absolutely livid.

"You shrew, you really think I don’t have a temper! Do you believe I..."

Han Bowwen raised his hand to strike Ding Lijuan.

But just one look from her froze him in his tracks.

"What, you dare to hit me?"

"Come on then, give it a try!"

Ding Lijuan boldly thrust her face forward, while Han Bowwen retreated in fear.

He had been cowed by Ding Lijuan his whole life, not daring to fight back.

In the end, with nowhere to direct his rage, Han Bowwen let out a roar and slapped his own face hard.

Ding Lijuan wore a smug look, raising her eyebrows as she spoke, "That’s right, hitting yourself! With how worthless you are, you indeed deserve it!"

Han Bowwen, red with anger and close to spitting blood, sat on the ground wailing incessantly.

Just then, Han Bowwen’s phone suddenly rang.

Han Bowwen instantly calmed down, looked at the incoming call, and frowned.

It was the number from the Han Family’s old house; they usually called this phone to issue notifications to the Han Family members.

Han Bowwen answered the call.

"Hello, Uncle, Grandma has notified that tomorrow morning, all members of the Han Family must gather at the old house for an important announcement!"

"What? Gather at the old house?"

What a joke, he’s homeless right now, dirty as a beggar, if the Han Family saw him like this, they would laugh him to death!

Han Bowwen replied nonchalantly, "Well... I’m currently on vacation in the Maldives, so I might not be able to make it back tomorrow..."

But as soon as he spoke, he was slapped on the head by Ding Lijuan.

Ding Lijuan cursed irritably, "What kind of doctor are you talking about, do you even know where the Maldives is to make up such nonsense!"

"There’s always something to eat when the old house holds a meeting, we might as well go for a free meal, are you stupid or what?"

Han Bowwen suddenly saw the light, it seemed to make sense.

If there’s something for free, why not take advantage of it!

So, Han Bowwen quickly changed his tune, "Don’t worry, as long as the Han Family needs me, it doesn’t matter if I’m in the Maldives or even on the moon, I will definitely rush over tomorrow morning!"

That night, in the old alley.

"Wife, since we’ve already remarried, should I still sleep on the floor tonight?" Chen Xuan rubbed his nose, tentatively asking.

After leaving the Han Family’s old house during the day, Chen Xuan and Han Jingting went straight to the Civil Affairs Office to remarry.

With the certificate in hand, Chen Xuan was much bolder and thus hinted at wanting to share a bed.

Han Jingting, however, was aloof, "Last time you said the floor was comfortable, didn’t you? If it’s comfortable, then it’s good to keep sleeping there."

Chen Xuan regretted his past words but fortunately, he had come prepared.

"What if I give you this, would you consider giving me another chance?"

As he spoke, Chen Xuan took out a bank card from his person with a mysterious air.

"What’s this?" Han Jingting was curious.

Chen Xuan: "This is the twenty million that Meng Jinzhou has returned. I’ve already gotten it back for you!"

Han Jingting was astounded, "How did you manage that?!"

Like mother, like daughter.

Han Jingting knew her mother’s character best; getting back money that had fallen into her hands was harder than reaching the heavens!

Now that Chen Xuan had managed to retrieve the entire twenty million without missing a cent, it really seemed incredible to Han Jingting.

Chen Xuan had a mysterious smirk, "See, I got the twenty million back for you. That’s an accomplishment, isn’t it?"

"How about you let me sleep next to you tonight, and I’ll tell you everything you want to know, in detail. What do you say?"

But Han Jingting rolled her eyes and snatched the bank card, "Then you really don’t understand me at all. The more you get the money back for me, the less I can agree to your request!"

Chen Xuan was clueless, "Why’s that?"

Han Jingting said seriously, "When you didn’t give me money, I didn’t agree to your request. If I agree just because you gave me money, what would that make me?"

"Do you really want people to think that I agreed to your request just for money?"

Chen Xuan: "..."

He never expected that what he thought was a great accomplishment would actually dig him a huge hole!

Damn, that was rash!

Seeing Chen Xuan’s deflated look, Han Jingting found it even more amusing.

She had principles, but women are fickle, sometimes she wasn’t that principled.

In fact, the reason she didn’t agree to Chen Xuan’s request to share a bed wasn’t because he gave her money, but rather because she enjoyed the feeling of rejecting him.

Her marriage to Chen Xuan was arranged by her grandfather, Han Sanshui, and there had been no feelings between them at the start.

Recently, however, the subtle changes in their relationship had given Han Jingting a sense of happiness she had never felt before.

She believed this must be what love feels like!

Han Jingting was savoring this sensation, so she didn’t want it to end too quickly.

Let’s consider it giving Chen Xuan a chance to court her all over again!
