Chapter 17: Chapter 17 What is that shameless person trying to do

"Let’s talk about the accountant position later. I don’t think the development in the North is really that good — Suizi, have you heard of Q City?"

Upon hearing Q City, Suizi felt a chill from head to toe.

That was the place where she had been killed by him.

The mention of this place from Li Youcai’s mouth made Suizi’s blood seem to freeze, her head dizzy.

She lowered her head, Li Youcai couldn’t see her expression, and her silence lasted a bit too long.

Suizi bit her tongue lightly, forcing herself not to show fear.

"The first city you get to when you exit the gate from the gaol, I saw it on the map when I was at school."

This answer was irrefutable.

"I have a relative over there, says it’s great, developing faster than the north." Li Youcai’s eyes filled with longing, trying to create a feeling of a human paradise full of gold.

"Hmm, you have an education, you could try."

Fearing that she would lose her composure if the conversation continued, Suizi quickly excused herself.

Li Youcai watched her receding figure, his eyes filled with infatuation.

"A woman who looks good even though she’s fat, I’ve only ever seen this one. It would be better if she were slim," commented Li Youcai while licking the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Youcai~~~"

Suizi heard Lamei’s voice, but when she looked back, there was nothing.

Li Youcai was hiding with Lamei behind the pile of firewood, fearing that Suizi would see them.

Lamei was struggling, while Li Youcai was holding onto her. With a blissful look on her face, Lamei leaned her head into his chest.

One glance down and he could see her white dandruff, which almost made him vomit.

Why is it that Suizi always has long flowing hair with a sweet scent?

After a while, Li Youcai released her, his eyes filled with disdain.

"Lamei, why are you here?"

"Brother Youcai! Suizi is going too far, slandering my name, I can’t stay in the village anymore," cried Lamei, her face covered in tears.

Her mother had made quite a fuss just to let her stay in the village, compensating Suizi with work points and pulling some strings. Although she had managed to stay, her reputation was irreparably tarnished.

News spread fast in the village, and the story of her attempt to harm Suizi went viral.

"Brother Youcai, when are we getting married? I’m all yours now, what am I going to do if you abandon me?" Lamei said, lifting her tear-streaked face to ask.

Seeing the large snot on her face, Li Youcai felt his stomach churn.

"No rush, let’s wait till I have a stable job so I can provide a stable life for you..."

Li Youcai mouthed these appeasing words, while internally deliberating on how to ditch the hot potato that was Lamei.

He introspected how bad his tastes were when he was young, for how could he have slept with such an ugly woman?

On her way home, Suizi’s heart pounded in her chest, her palms cold, and her breathing rapid.

There was no one at home at this moment, she sat on the stairs, the cold air crawling into her skin through the cuffs and collar. It was a while before she relaxed.

Why would Li Youcai bring up Q City for no reason?

Typically, he would be very interested in the accountant position. But his reaction just now was clearly one of disdain.

There was a major flaw in his statement.

Li Youcai said there were more opportunities in Q City than here, which was incorrect.

In the early eighties, North was in the best era of factories, while Q City was just a large fishing village. Only after the wave of layoffs appeared a decade later did the northern economy gradually decline and the coastal cities began to open up opportunities.

In her past life, Suizi had gone to Q City primarily to hide from Yu Jingting, she had found a job at a small factory as an accountant and waited a few years before starting a small business, slowly working her way up.

The factory wages there were not as good as in the north, and if Suizi wasn’t hiding, with her technical school background, she would have preferred to stay in the north, where she could even get a house.

Suizi found Li Youcai’s mention of Q City suspicious, she didn’t know if she was overly cautious or if he had just casually mentioned it.

If she was overthinking things, that’s easy to handle, but if it really was what she thought, that Li Youcai... "

Suizi shuddered.

The Yu Family courtyard was surrounded by a fence. When Suizi looked towards the west, there was no wall.

Her vision was somewhat blurred, as if she could see a thick wall, inside which buried the bracelet made from her cremated bones. Her soul sat on the wall, unable to see the future and unwilling to think about the past...

She blinked away the tears forcefully, telling herself everything was different now. She had a new beginning. No matter what the evil person was up to, she had to protect herself and her family, she didn’t want to sit on the wall ever again.

She seemed to see a figure with a skeleton face on the wall in a trance.

"Ah!!!"

Suizi got a fright.

Upon closer inspection, Yu Jingting was standing outside the fence using a rib bone to conceal his face.

He had sold his needle and thread and bought a fan made of rib bones, raising it to show his wife, hoping for praise.

"Annoying!" When Suizi saw clearly that it was him, she patted her chest and threw the broom at him.

"What’s wrong with this little charmer, why the teary eyes?"

The fence meant nothing to him. Ignoring the front gate, he insisted on climbing over the fence.

He imagined a sly landing, but then there was a ripping sound.

Trying to be cool has its price.

"Ah, it hurts!"

His screams echoed in the small courtyard.

Yu Jingting’s military green trousers had ripped open a large hole, and his hand was pierced multiple times by the wood shards on the fence.

Jumping around the yard in pain.

Interestingly, he still clung onto the precious rib bone.

Suizi’s fear and vexation all disappeared due to his antics.

"Are you stupid?!" She felt that this guy was just a big kid who hadn’t grown up.

"It’s all because I’m in a hurry to please you, you ungrateful woman!" Yu Jingting also felt a bit embarrassed. His hard-man image had been ruined by the gaping hole in his crotch.

Although he wore thermal underwear inside and nothing was visible, this image was... somewhat compromising.

"Get in quickly, I’ll sew it for you, otherwise, mom is definitely going to hit you when she comes back — you’ve flattened the fence!"

Suizi murmured and opened the door. Yu Jingting followed her sullenly, still trying to gain an upper hand and salvage some dignity.

"It’s all your fault, you seductive little woman, giving me coquettish looks from the inside, distracting me. Usually, I can jump in easily."

"When did I ever give you coquettish looks???" Suizi thought he was shameless.

Both of them entered the house. Yu Jingting took off his trousers, and casually pulled out a stack of money from his pocket.

All small notes, adding up to a few yuan.

"Bought ribs and still have this much, am I a manly man or not!" He was very proud, seeking praise.

"Yes, very manly. Would be even more impressive if you hadn’t tried to somersault over the fence." Suizi grabbed his hand and carefully picked out the small wood shards.

Yu Jingting had lived a rough life before. He had been injured many times, but never cared. Now he suddenly had a wife who cared about him. He basked in her fragrant scent and his heart began to stir.

"Wife, mom and Jiaojiao are not at home, shall we finish —" what we didn’t get to do last night~

"I just saw Li Youcai."

These words instantly extinguished Yu Jingting’s slight lasciviousness. He sprang to his feet, his face filled with murderous coldness.

"What does that shameless bastard want?!"
