Chapter 250: Chapter 250: Sorry, I Sold You Out

Suizi was attentively waiting for the "undercover" informant’s report.

As he diverted the conversation to fatty beef, a vein twitched on her forehead, her little fist pounding against his chest.

"Stop hitting me!" He gripped her fist, his cool handsome face cloaked in thin anger.

His large hand encapsulated her small fist, a slight effort enough to restrain her weak punches and kicks.

"Why are you mustering up the strength with a bulging stomach? What if you sprain something? If you’re not satisfied, I’ll hit myself." Saying so, he smacked his own face.

"Ah!" Suizi gasped, shocked.

The very next second.

"Ugh..."

"Why are you crying again?! So, I can’t hit myself, either?"

Why was this broad so hard to soothe? Yu Jingting was lost.

"Who told you to hit yourself? Only I can hit you!" She had never hit his face, as that was a man’s dignity.

Seeing the red mark on his face, Suizi felt as if she had been the one who got hit, gingerly touching his face with her trembling hand before quickly pulling back as if scalded by hot water.

All the comfort Yu Jingting had received throughout his life, having been beaten up from childhood, came from Suizi.

Everyone thought he was not afraid of pain, including Yu Jingting himself.

Only she, every time he got hurt, she would be inconsolably upset, her eyes filled with concern, unable to hide it.

"Alright, aren’t you done being angry? Even if the sky falls, don’t I still have my tall body to shield you? It’s not a big deal, if you really want to know what’s up with our mum, I’ll help you find out."

"Right now, immediately, at once." Suizi sobbed while blowing on his cheek.

The fragrant breath blowing over him, slightly cold against his skin, yet it made his bones tingle.

"Honey, it still hurts...."

"Where? Let me blow it for you——Oh!"

The small mouth was captured by the cheeky man, something he had been wanting to do.

"Done arguing, you two? I was so suffocated." Jiaojiao bounced out from the inner room.

Actually, she had been at home all this while.

Seeing the couple start arguing upon getting home, the young girl dared not come out and hid in the room doing her homework.

Upon hearing silence outside, she came out to check.

"Oh my God!"

Jiaojiao covered her eyes, through her big finger gaps, her tall brother was holding her sister-in-law’s head while the other hand seemed to have reached into her sister-in-law’s cotton-padded coat——

Was this something her pure, distinguished Young Pioneer eyes could witness?

Suizi’s face turned bright red instantly, she hurriedly pounded Yu Jingting with her hand, but he didn’t let go!

Yu Jingting reluctantly removed his hand from his wife’s natural baby food container.

"You don’t want your pocket money for this week?"

Threatening a child, you really have guts! Jiaojiao sneered privately but dared not offend the God of Wealth.

Yu Jingting has contributed ninety percent of the coins in Jiaojiao’s piggy bank.

"Ah, suddenly I cannot see, oh my God." Jiaojiao struck a blind person’s pose and fumbled her way back into the room.

"Put on more clothes." Yu Jingting took the chance to steal another kiss, his wife really was too kissable.

Everywhere tasted sweet and soft, he couldn’t get enough.

"Where are you going?"

"Didn’t you want hot pot?"

In passing, gather some Intel.

Suizi thought for a while and guessed what he was about to do.

She was excited and a little anxious for her mother.

"Are you really selling your mother-in-law out like that?"

Pity that her mother trusted him so much.

Yu Jingting said solemnly, "I’ve said it many times, I’m undercover."

Respect for the mother-in-law is valuable, but trust is more valuable. For Suizi’s sake, both can be forsaken.

Principle, not worth a damn in front of his soft and beautiful wife.

The Hot Pot Restaurant

Wang Cuihua’s table, where food was barely touched, but a bottle of wine had been emptied.

Authentic Dongbei spirits, above fifty percent alcohol, the Flask was nearly empty.

The two women, drinking half a flask each, Wang Cuihua couldn’t handle her liquor and was slumped on the table, on the brink of passing out.

Chen Lijun was also a bit tipsy and got up to go to the restroom.

By the time she came back, Yu Jingting was sitting next to Wang Cuihua, who had a new coat thrown over her, brought over by her son.

"Did you comfort her?" Chen Lijun asked.

"Mhm." Yu Jingting gestured for a waiter and ordered two more beers.

"Mom, she’s having a hard time, pregnant women turning everything into an emotional mess isn’t good for the baby, what can’t you two talk face-to-face about?"

Yhe news of Suizi’s discomfort made Chen Lijun’s eyes darken.

She silently sighed and took a cigarette from the pack on the table, Yu Jingting quickly lit it for her, his roguish eyes looking around.

This made Chen Lijun laugh.

"Are you really that afraid of your wife? Did Suizi scare a screw loose in your head?"

"Hey, if a woman doesn’t stir up trouble—" Yu Jingting automatically responded in jest, but suddenly felt a chill from across the table.

Blowhard like that in front of her mother, it’s no wonder she glares at him.

"Her temper is just like yours, she seems soft on the outside, but inside harder than anyone. If I offend her, I’ll be in trouble, I’m just pulling your leg, once I get home, I might end up kneeling and scrubbing the washing board."

Yu Jingting had got himself worked up.

"Any other woman would let her man kneel for a night and scrub clothes, but your daughter holds a grudge. If she remembers, she beats me up, check out my face, it’s still red."

Yu Jingting presented his face to Chen Lijun for inspection, an act he had put on, but it came in handy now.

Chen Lijun squinted and observed, her eyebrows slightly troubled.

"Why has this girl become so violent after she moved to your place?"

"How could she not be violent? My mom practically teaches her hand-to-hand how to beat me up. She beats me, and my mom adds a few blows, women double-team."

Yu Jingting noticed his mother-in-law was being fooled, so he switched gears.

"Mom, can you clarify things today, why do you want her to deliberately detest you? If you don’t tell me the truth, being sandwiched between you two, being beaten every day feels a bit unfair to me."

Chen Lijun took the beer bottle, intending to pour herself a glass, but hearing him ask, she decided to skip the glass.

She drank straight from the bottle, gulping down half the bottle in a breath.

"Does it have to do with the Fan family? You asked me to keep an eye on Suizi so she wouldn’t get close to Fan Hua, but Fan Hua doesn’t seem like a threat."

Yu Jingting saw his mother-in-law’s expression turn frosty, he was going in the right direction.

He decided to be bolder.

"Does it have to do with Fan Hua’s cousin? Did you intentionally quarrel with her in order to protect my wife?"

Crack.

The beer bottle slipped from Chen Lijun’s hand and fell to the ground.

"I drank too much, I’m leaving first." Chen Lijun stood up, making it clear she didn’t want to continue the topic.

"Mom, as a man, sometimes, we don’t have a choice."

"What?" Chen Lijun didn’t understand what this boy was beating around the bush for.

"The most important people to her in this world, aside from you, is me. But you can’t protect her for her entire life, so the only one capable of protecting her in the future is me. Everything I’m doing now is to take care of her in advance, there’s nothing wrong with that, right?"

"What are you trying to say?"

"What he means is, for me, he sold you out. So, don’t hold it against him in the future."

Suizi came out from the back kitchen, only a few steps away from Chen Lijun.
