Chapter 247: Chapter 247: A Street Loafer at his wit’s end (Monthly ticket 250+ Updated)

"Wife! Wait for me!"

Yu Jingting chased her out of the restaurant, following Suizi all the way.

Seeing Suizi walk faster and faster, he became anxious, fearing that she might stumble. In a panic, he shouted:

"Don’t walk so fast!"

"If you keep following me, I’ll run! I’ll run away with the baby!" Suizi pointed at his nose and threatened.

Yu Jingting had no choice but to slow down and keep a few meters distance between them, walking one behind the other.

"Wife~ want to eat a roasted sweet potato?"

"Wife~ There’s a candied haw stand. Want one?"

"And ice cream!"

Yu Jingting kept calling out to her from behind.

Suizi wished she could just sprout wings and fly away.

Did he think she was a kid?

Could he appease her anger with some food?

What was even more frustrating was her uncontrollable stomach, which actually rumbled when he mentioned ice cream.

The ice cream with Egg Roll, wrapped in a paper tube, didn’t need a fridge. The outdoor temperature alone was enough to freeze it solid.

Any child who got one of those could be happy all day.

After walking a distance, Suizi found it too quiet.

She turned her head and saw him standing by the roadside, paying for an ice cream.

Suizi’s heart softened. She hadn’t eaten a single ice cream this winter, due to her pregnancy.

In a flash, he was already back with the ice cream.

He grinned as he peeled the ice cream. Just as Suizi was about to refuse, indicating she wouldn’t be won over easily, he took a big bite-- ate it himself?

Suizi was already angry. Seeing him so heartless, even eating ice cream to spite her, made her even madder.

"Ai Ma! The ice cream is stuck to my lips!" He cried out indistinctly.

Having ice stick to your lips is a terrible experience.

The temperature of your lips melts the outer layer of the ice cream stick, then instantly freezes, sticking to your lips.

If you forcefully pull it off, the skin will tear and blood will trickle down onto the ice cream stick...

The tear area will turn into a mouth ulcer that hurts for several days.

Just thinking about it made Suizi wince.

"Don’t pull it! Just wait a bit until the warmth of your lips separates it from the ice, don’t pull!"

"Ah! My front tooth is stuck!" Accompanied by his exaggerated cry, Suizi’s heart jumped, and she even forgot to shudder.

She leaned over to check, but as soon as he moved his hand from his mouth, he spread his mouth wide and took a bite at her small mouth.

The cold temperature, along with the rich milk flavor of the ice cream, spread instantly.

She was fooled again.

By the time Suizi realized she had been tricked by this bad guy, it was already too late.

Yu Jingting had his ice cream, and he also had his way with her.

"Hehe, you do know how to care about people." Yu Jingting smugly offered her the ice cream he had bitten, "Here, enjoy!"

Handsome for just a second.

"Ouch!" He clutched his stomach, Suizi had hit him hard.

"You’re brutal... trying to murder your own husband, huh"

"I don’t want your leftovers. Take it!" Suizi didn’t even know what she was angry about anymore, just irritated by the sight of him.

"It’s actually pretty good, creamy and sweet."

"Scram!"

To make the cultured Teacher Xiaochen use such words, he was impressive indeed.

"Wife, listen to me explain. Me and Mom are not in cahoots. I’m on your side. Actually, mom and I—" Yu Jingting looked into her clear eyes, saw the tears welling up, and couldn’t go on.

"You lied to me. I trusted you so much, and you... you lied to me..." Suizi’s voice trembled at the end.

Even though a mixture of complex emotions were running through her heart at this moment, the most painful one was being lied to by someone she considered close.

It wasn’t pure anger; there was a hint of relief as well.

Relief that the woman he was with is the mother, not some other woman.

"I didn’t mean to deceive you, actually... actually, I am an undercover agent."

"...???" Suizi was too surprised to cry.

She was looking at him blankly.

"I was trying to find out why she treats you so badly, so I pretended to be a very dutiful son-in-law."

Suizi silently looked at him for a few seconds, then raised her hand and thumped him on his chest.

"Yu Jingting! Are you treating me like a fool? I was there when you were listening to the storytelling session!"

She was furious.

Recently, the radio station has been broadcasting espionage stories, which Yu Jingting is keenly interested in. Today, he put what he learnt into practice.

He was ruthlessly exposed by Suizi.

Suizi beat him but Yu Jingting didn’t dare to dodge.

Suizi hit him twice and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got, breaking into a loud cry.

The onlookers glanced at Jingting, whispering and pointing fingers.

"Young man, you’re quite a strong fellow, how can you make your pregnant wife angry?" said an old lady who was passing by.

"Exactly, just apologise quietly. It’s so cold, don’t upset the pregnant lady."

Seeing that Suizi couldn’t be appeased, Yu Jingting scratched his ears and patted his cheeks in anxiety.

"Wang sister!" Yu Jingting pointed at someone behind Suizi and shouted. As Suizi turned her head,

Wang Hui was walking towards them from a distance.

Suizi stopped crying instantly, swiftly wiping the tears off her face.

In front of acquaintances, even Teacher Xiaochen had some image to maintain.

Though she had stopped crying, she still looked at the big liar, Yu Jingting, with a grim face.

"Leave."

"I’m worried about you going back home alone."

Seeing that Suizi was about to cry again, Yu Jingting quickly raised his hands in a surrendering gesture.

"I’ll go, I’ll go, is that ok? Please don’t cry anymore, don’t be angry. Once you calm down, let’s talk it out."

Seeing him actually leaving, Suizi’s lips began to tremble again.

When Wang Hui approached, Suizi managed to hold back her tears.

"What happened? Did you argue with Jingting?" Wang Hui looked concerned when she saw Suizi’s red eyes.

"No, I just came out for a breath of fresh air." Suizi put up a brave front.

Disputes were always there, but it was never good to let outsiders know about them.

"I was looking for you actually. I need a favour." Wang Hui appeared anxious. Hence, Suizi invited her to her house.

While the two women walked ahead, Yu Jingting followed from a distance, too abashed to get closer. He swiftly thought of several ways to make amends.

However, it seemed none would work. His wife was truly angry this time, and it wouldn’t be easy to placate her. Yu Jingting was filled with worry.

Seems like Sister Wang was also in trouble. She was helpless and out of options, which was why she came to Suizi.

"Could you lend me 150 Yuan?" Suizi was a bit surprised.

Wang Hui’s face turned crimson with embarrassment. She knew it was a hefty sum.

It has been just over a month since she got acquainted with Suizi. It was indeed abrupt to ask her for money, but she had no choice. She had turned to all potential sources.

Wang Hui’s ex-husband had died and her child was being raised by its grandmother. Wang Hui wanted to bring her child back, but the grandmother was unwilling.

"The child’s grandmother is asking for 500 Yuan. She says she will hand over the child when she gets the money. I have been scrambling to gather funds, but I still need 150..." Wang Hui’s face turned scarlet as she spoke. It was clear she rarely asked for favors.

"I do have some money, but I don’t think it should be given to her."

Suizi was considering helping her friend Wang Hui in her hour of need, but lending money seemed to be encouraging leeching behaviour.

"Suizi, do you have any ideas on how I could get my child back?" Wang Hui asked, and in an instant, she noticed Suizi’s pocket and widened her eyes in surprise.

"Suizi! Look, what’s going on with your pocket!"
