I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 58: Who makes the decisions in this family

Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Who makes the decisions in this family

Suizi was pale, her lips a purplish hue, her body shaking slightly.

"I was wrong, it’s my fault..." This sentence filled her mind as tears uncontrollably poured out.

Something must have happened to Jiaojiao in the past life.

After Suizi’s miscarriage, Yu Jingting smashed the hospital, and Suizi, fearing revenge, fled overnight.

With no adults in the house, the villain took advantage of the opportunity to harm Jiaojiao.

That’s why Yu Jingting moved.

Suizi believed that had she had the courage to face Yu Jingting in her previous life, would the Yu family have suffered such a disaster?

In the end, it was her fault.

Thinking about Jiaojiao, Suizi felt as if she was being cut open with a knife.

Though Jiaojiao insisted verbally that she didn’t like her, she would often rope Suizi into telling her stories in both obvious and subtle ways. Despite her apparent enthusiasm, she always put on an air of being hard to get.

Whenever other children said bad things about Suizi, Jiaojiao was the first to rush up and fight with them.

Suizi truly liked this adorable child. Thinking about the injustice Jiaojiao suffered in the past life, Suizi wished she could strangle herself. It was all her fault!

Yu Jingting had no idea what was going on in Suizi’s mind, but seeing his wife cry so sadly, no amount of comforting would do any good. He couldn’t help but curse.

"Damn, I knew that Li Youcai was no good. Every encounter with him is unlucky. And that Yan Changgui, did he scare you by shouting at you?"

Yu Jingting looked in the direction where Yan Changgui had left, preparing to follow and beat the one who had scared his wife.

However, Suizi clung to him, unable to find the words to express her feelings despite her intense emotions, and could only look at him tearfully and imploringly.

The sight of his wife, delicate and wounded like a little bunny, was enough to make Yu Jingting’s blood boil.

Seeing how wronged his wife was!

Li Youcai and that Yan Changgui, who had insulted his wife, they better be ready to meet their maker!

"It’s not a big deal, do you need to cry like that? Whoever bullies you, just beat them up. If you can’t, don’t you still have me?"

"But, it’s my fault, I was wrong..." Suizi spoke guiltily.

She felt guilty towards Jiaojiao.

"If you’ve made a mistake, correct it. If you make it again, correct it again. We learn through trials and errors." As a little boy, Yu Jingting was used to making mistakes and being forced by his mother to apologise. He had gotten quite skilful at it.

Suizi, originally immersed in self-blame, was suddenly enlightened by his words, and a surge of passion arose within her.

Yu Jingting was right. Since she was at fault, she should take remedial action. She intended to protect Jiaojiao, to give Jiaojiao all the good things she missed in her previous life.

Right now, she was determined to get the villain punished. Whatever wasn’t done in her past life needed to be accomplished in this one!

Suizi made up her mind, her voice carried a note of determination despite her crying.

"Jingting... Let’s go home. I have something to tell you."

Noticing Suizi’s resolute expression, Yu Jingting’s heart skipped a beat.

This little woman kept on saying that she was wrong... Could it be that she had taken a fancy to some pretty boy and wanted a divorce from him?

His gaze fell on the few chickens in the pushcart, were these chickens meant to be her "break-up gift" for the potential divorce?

Besides this, Yu Jingting couldn’t figure out why she would unceasingly apologize, talk about moving and cry bitterly—

Yu Jingting glared at the chickens in the cart, if this little woman dared to play any foolish games later, he was going to bleed these chickens one by one, cook them, and make her eat them all without even adding salt!

This woman who was always thinking of running away, needed to be taught a lesson so that she would understand who was in charge in this house!

The two of them had their thoughts.

As soon as they got home and closed the door, Yu Jingting put away the dark cloud within him, looked down and asked in a low voice:

"What do you want to tell me?"

"I know who the villain in the cornfield was."

"You want me to take action, huh—what?" Huh, they’re not proposing a divorce?

"I suspect its Yan Changgui. Our Jiaojiao might be his next target."

A rare look of confusion crossed Yu Jingting’s face.

He imagined a cruel scene of him reasserting his authority as a husband, yet instead, nobody mentioned anything about a divorce?

"Wait, who is his target?!" Yu Jingting reacted belatedly.

"Jiaojiao, Lun Lamei said so herself, she must have heard something." Suizi tactfully revealed the truth to him.

"He dares to lay a finger on my sister, does he fucking want to die?!" Yu Jingting, fuming with fury, grabbed a cleaver from the kitchen and swung it around, then tucked a firewood axe about his waist in passing.

All of this seemed eerily similar to events from his past life just before he caused trouble in the hospital.

The same violent expression, the same threatening weapon.

Suizi had been terrified at the sight of all this in her previous life.

"You mustn’t go now."

"Shut up!" Yu Jingting’s eyes were bloodshot, he pointed menacingly at Suizi. "I’m still alive, whoever crosses you lot will have to deal with me first!"

Even this phrase was exactly the same as his previous life.

In her previous life, Suizi too had tried to stop him, only to be threatened. She had been terrified then.

As Yu Jingting steeled himself for a showdown with Yan Changgui, he suddenly felt a warmth from behind.

Suizi was hugging him tightly from behind.

In her previous life, she had been too scared to speak her mind. But in this life, she mustered up the courage to be her true self. That was her debt to the Yu Family, and to herself.

"Don’t go."

"Let go!"

Suizi mustered all her strength to hold him tightly. Despite being a timid woman, at this moment she was as resolute as a warrior making a last stand.

Her hands tightly circled his waist as she pleaded:

"I won’t let go. If you assault someone, you’ll be arrested. What will happen to us then?"

"So that bastard can make fun of me and I should tolerate it?" Despite being able to easily shake Suizi off, Yu Jingting couldn’t bring himself to do it.

He enjoyed sibling banter with his sister, but that didn’t mean he didn’t care for her. Therefore, he didn’t intend to concede.

"I’m not asking you to tolerate it. Jiaojiao is your sister as much as she is mine. If anyone tries to harm her, it feels like a stab to my own heart. I can assure her of my protection from harm, but certainly not by brute force." Suizi moved her small hand over to the axe tucked at his waist.

"This is not a woman’s call, get off." Yu Jingting, a young man in the prime of his youth, believed in an eye-for-an-eye approach.

"Just because I’m fond of you doesn’t mean that you can ride roughshod over me. I’m the boss in this family!" Unable to shake off Suizi, Yu Jingting could only resort to threatening words.

Suizi released her grip and took a step backward. Yu Jingting turned around, startled.

"Have you gone mad?! Put the axe down quickly!"

Suizi placed the blunt edge of the axe against her neck and sobbed:

"Yu Tiegen, I share all this with you because I consider you my man, my mother no longer wants me, and in this world, you’re the closest person to me. I don’t want to hide anything from you, and if you act foolishly, if you dare let me lose my man, and let Jiaojiao lose her brother, and our mother lose her son, I will slit my own throat!"

Her crying was meek, but her actions were the fiercest in the entire village.

Yu Jingting, who had just been ranting about not submitting to anyone, was scared stiff.

"Put it down quickly! We can...we can talk about it peacefully!" The usually sharp-tongued man was stammered, completely terrified by Suizi.

"Who makes the decisions in this family?"

"You you you, put it down quickly!"

"Are you still going to act impulsively?"

"I will just hit him a few times, not kill him—hey hey hey, I’ll do as you say, don’t press harder!" Yu Jingting, noticing her applying more pressure, panic-stricken, did something he would later regret and resent deeply.
