I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 128: Social Show-off Syndrome

Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Social Show-off Syndrome

"Chen Hansui, have you grown a thick skin? Are you deaf to my words?!"

Yu Jingting roared, extending his hand, swinging it toward Suizi’s head.

Yang Hong watched without daring to blink an eye.

He was going to hit her, he was about to hit her!

This street rat, known for hitting women, could easily do it!

However, his hand moved, not towards Suizi’s face, but— her scarf?

Yang Hong was almost cross-eyed. What was happening?

Yu Jingting gave a big tug, yanking Suizi’s scarf over her head, amidst her speechless expression, he transformed her beautiful scarf into a hen’s nest-like headwrap.

"How many times have I told you, either wear a hat, or put the scarf over your head, aren’t you afraid of your ears freezing off in this cold weather? How many times do I have to repeat for you to remember?"

Suizi muttered softly.

"It’s ugly when worn on the head."

Most village women wrap their heads with scarves during winter. Not only does it keep the ears and the head warm, it also serves to cover half the face and prevents hair from getting dirty when collecting firewood.

Though practical, Suizi thought it was absolutely unattractive.

"Vanity! If you don’t smarten up, I swear I will—"

Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted his underage sister blinking her eyes fixedly at him.

And this little lady who knew nothing about his temper, was also looking at him, her eyes full of ridicule. Her expression clearly suggested: let’s see if you dare to actually do it.

Suizi was not at all afraid of him, especially seeing him bleed from his nose would always make her heartache. She was ready; he was the one who couldn’t bear to hurt her.

Under the gaze of the two women in his family, Yu Jingting’s expression grew more rigid.

Ha, a woman should never have control in this world. A man should assert his dominance and scare the hell out of her!

"Brother, how are you planning to discipline my sister-in-law?" Jiaojiao was still eager to know. Despite her tender age, she knew what boasting meant— her brother was clearly bluffing.

"If I catch you not wearing your scarf again, I will climb into bed without washing my feet! Wait until you fall asleep, and I’ll even put my stinky socks next to your pillow."

Suizi gasped.

This was too brutal, it scared the life out of her.

She quickly tied her scarf properly with her plump little hands, looked at him with her watery eyes teeming with pitifulness, she had been very obedient, he could take back his terrifying punishment.

Only then did Yu Jingting feel fully satisfied. This was what being a man means, this was the "domestic throne"!

"Let’s go, the house has been pretty much cleaned up now. Let’s go home and have dinner."

Yang Hong watched as Yu Jingting left and started chatting and laughing with Suizi, feeling utterly confused.

Is...that it?

She thought Yu Jingting would beat up Suizi, or at least hurl a few insults.

So, all the commotion was just to make Suizi wear her scarf over her head?

In this world, are there really men who don’t care about their wives flirting with other men? She didn’t believe it.

Yu Jingting would definitely beat Suizi up when they got back. Definitely!

Yang Hong stood on the street, imagining the scene of Suizi being beaten up by Yu Jingting, feeling slightly relieved.

Everyone associated with Lun Lamei should go to hell. If she, Yang Hong, couldn’t live a good life, then nobody else should either.

Little did Yang Hong know that she had angered Yu Jingting, and her husband was waiting for her at home, fuming and ready to argue.

Previously, Wang Dazhuang let Yang Hong hit him because he felt guilty about the "blood stained two miles" incident.

Now that Wang Dazhuang had caught Yang Hong’s weakness, there was bound to be a big quarrel. No peace was expected.

Yang Hong ran in front of Yu Jingting, gossiping about Suizi, which did not affect Suizi the slightest bit. However, Yang Hong found herself in trouble, like being caught in a storm or getting whooped due to her broken glasses.

On the way home, Yu Jingting mentioned what Yang Hong did to stir trouble.

"You didn’t believe her?"

Suizi was not surprised that Yang Hong tried to trick her.

A woman might act irrationally due to emotional instability after a marriage breakdown, lacking self-control. She might act like Yang Hong, biting anyone she sees.

In Yang Hong’s mind, Suizi could be classified as the likes of Lun Lamei. Thus, it was not strange for her to find trouble with Suizi.

However, she was somewhat surprised at Yu Jingting’s reaction. This hot-tempered young man didn’t show any signs of jealousy?

Suizi did not know whether to appreciate his rationality or be frustrated with it. Could it be because he felt safe because she was chubby?

"I’m not stupid enough to believe her," Yu Jingting glanced at her, giving her a look as if she had asked a very stupid question.

"Do you dare to mess around with men?"

Others might be timid as a mouse, but his wife, she is as timid as a bean.

After getting married, most of the young wives in the village, like Yang Hong, would chat more and could make a few jokes when they see men. And the men enjoyed it.

Suizi talked less before marriage, and the situation remained the same after marriage.

She would keep her distance from men, greeting them but never saying more than necessary. The men wouldn’t initiate conversation with her because of this.

Those unfamiliar with her thought she was arrogant, but Yu Jingting knew, she simply did not want to talk with others.

Not that she can’t, but she doesn’t want to.

The other women in the village were good at socializing, but when it came to interacting with people of Director Du’s status, they would get nervous and wouldn’t know what to say. It was different for Suizi.

Whether it was the Director or the Chief Editor of the Newspaper Agency, or the Police Station, her communication skills were top-notch.

But she would rather hide by his side, silently watching him speak.

A woman who thought through every detail was surprisingly afraid of socializing.

Suizi blushed as he saw through her. She had a bit of social phobia, which, like being tongue-tied, was inherent.

In their previous life, when she was a businesswoman, she had no choice but to interact with people. Now that she has Yu Jingting, who is sociable, she would rather strategize behind the scenes and let him do the actual communication.

She thought she had done a good job at hiding this, but it turned out he saw right through her.

"A woman like you, with so many schemes up her sleeve, even if you were interested in another man, you wouldn’t act so frivolously in front of Jiaojiao, unless a donkey has kicked you in the head."

"Are you complementing me or insulting me?" What did he mean by her having so many schemes like a wasp’s nest?

Yu Jingting touched her small mouth, speaking with a tone both indulging and proud:

"I’m complimenting myself. I can’t believe that a grown man like me would be unwanted by you. Even if a donkey can’t kick you in the head, you would never have the chance to like another man."

"!!!" Suizi was choked by his shamelessness and confidence.

"Brother, your face is so thick, you can’t describe it as big, right?" Jiaojiao, who had already been promoted to an outstanding student, thought she caught her brother’s "wrong sentence".

Suizi’s face turned even redder. She pinched him, but it was all cotton-padded jacket and she couldn’t reach the flesh.

Yu Jingting’s face is as thick as his cotton-padded jacket. He shamelessly fluffed in front of children. What the hell!

"Why are kids asking so many questions? Have you finished your homework? And I have yet to settle the score with you. When I asked you to escort your sister-in-law, how could you let another man disturb your sister-in-law sunbathing?"

Upon hearing this, Jiaojiao immediately became spirited. Her face full of pride, while Suizi rubbed her temples.

Recalling the tussle over accepting gifts with men and Jiaojiao’s exceptional performance, Suizi felt particularly awkward. This social prowess of the Yu family must be hereditary, right?
