Chapter 903: Chapter 903: Rushing around and getting irritated with busyness

Curious Wang Cuihua went out with Suizi to see what was happening.

They saw Liu Meimei, looking like a drowned rat, standing in front of her own door, with a large puddle of water on the ground.

Yu Jingting was leading two children, standing by and watching the scene.

The undisguised, arrogant laughter was coming from Yu Jingting.

Suizi scanned the area with her eyes and didn’t see any buckets.

It wasn’t water from a bucket, and it couldn’t have appeared out of thin air...

Upon closer inspection, a few pieces of transparent plastic... this guy had filled condoms with water!

Suizi easily reconstructed the recent scene through the "evidence" present on the scene.

Yu Jingting had filled a condom to make a huge water balloon; that thing could hold seven or eight taels of water, don’t ask how Suizi knew.

After filling it with water and placing it above the door, he just waited for Liu Meimei to push the door open and get smacked by the huge "water balloon", which was guaranteed to give a chill to the core.

"Why did you hit me with that!" Liu Meimei wiped the water off her face and tearfully asked Yu Jingting.

"Why not take down someone I don’t like?" Yu Jingting snorted, "Did you think there wouldn’t come a day like this when you bullied my two little ones?"

Liu Meimei indeed hadn’t anticipated this.

She had never seen an adult who would stoop to a child’s level.

Now she had seen one.

Jiaojiao’s room door was slightly ajar, Jiaojiao poked her head out, took a glance, and then withdrew it again.

Liu Meimei glared at Jiaojiao’s door, wishing she could bore a hole through it with her gaze.

She didn’t dare to confront the formidable Yu Jingting, but transferred her hatred onto Jiaojiao.

Yu Jingting didn’t miss that look, and he turned his head to ask Suizi,

"Ever seen a semi-automatic human pitching machine?"

"Uh?"

Yu Jingting did not bow his head, but lightly patted the two children’s shoulders with his hands.

Whoosh-whoosh~

Two water balloons were launched from the children’s hands, hitting Liu Meimei all over.

This time it was water balloons filled from balloons, not the huge "indecent" water balloon from before.

Suizi was speechless.

Yu Jingting, quite pleased with himself, stood with hands on hips, smirking triumphantly.

"Look, semi-automatic, and it can even fire repeatedly."

Liu Meimei dared not stay outside any longer; she couldn’t get a word in against Yu Jingting and would only end up losing more.

The two children continued to throw water balloons at Liu Meimei, who closed her door and did not dare to come out.

Suizi, watching her behavior, figured she likely wouldn’t come out for dinner either.

"Can’t you teach the kids something good?" Suizi complained, massaging her temples.

She was really afraid a street ruffian would teach two little street ruffians.

"Don’t be so serious, let’s go, time to eat."

Yu Jingting was in a good mood; mess with him, and it didn’t matter who it was, there was no one he wouldn’t strike back at.

Just as Suizi had anticipated, Liu Meimei did not come out for dinner that evening.

The next morning, bright and early, Jiaojiao had just gotten up when Liu Meimei came over.

Liu Meimei’s eyes were red, and she looked like she hadn’t rested well.

"Jiaojiao, you must help me!" Liu Meimei grasped Jiaojiao’s hand as soon as she entered, her thin hands exerting all their strength, like two small pliers, turning the skin around Jiaojiao’s wrist white.

"Meimei, what do you want my help with?" Jiaojiao’s gaze was slightly complex.

"Tomorrow, when I go back, you have to accompany me to the hospital, alright? I really don’t want to delay any longer." Liu Meimei said pitifully.

Jiaojiao’s expression cooled, and the corners of her mouth turned downward slightly.

"Meimei, my brother pranked you today. If you hold any grudges against him in your heart, you can tell me directly, or if you have any other difficulties, just tell me, and I’ll help you," Jiaojiao said.

"What are you talking about? I don’t harbour any resentment against you guys at all. I just... want you to accompany me to the hospital. We are best friends, aren’t we? If you don’t come with me, nobody will," Liu Meimei said.

Liu Meimei seemed to have made up her mind as she looked up at Jiaojiao.

"I just want you to accompany me to the hospital," she said.

Jiaojiao was silent.

For both of them, this minute was an agony.

"If that’s what you’re asking for, I’ll agree," Jiaojiao finally said, her eyes full of disappointment.

But Liu Meimei was overjoyed, shaking Jiaojiao’s hand back and forth.

"Jiaojiao, you really are a good friend of mine."

"..." I wish I had never known you, Jiaojiao thought to herself.

This was the last chance she gave Liu Meimei, but clearly, Liu Meimei hadn’t taken it.

Liu Meimei left the house in high spirits. After a while, Jiaojiao looked out the window and saw her heading towards the Hot Spring Pool.

To think she still had the mood to soak in hot springs...

"Why do I even give such a person chances?" Jiaojiao muttered to herself, feeling somewhat like a fool.

Her sister-in-law was right; she shouldn’t have held out hope for a bad person, expecting Liu Meimei to have a change of heart, which was purely a daydream.

Since Liu Meimei was heartless, she couldn’t be blamed for being unfaithful.

With that thought, Jiaojiao decided to look for Suizi.

It just so happened that Suizi came to invite her for breakfast.

"Sister-in-law, are you and Aunt Lijun going for a maternity check-up tomorrow?" Jiaojiao asked.

Suizi nodded.

"Then I’ll invite you to watch a play. It’s guaranteed to be far more exciting than the eight o’clock drama Aunt Lijun follows every day."

Suizi smiled wryly, resigned to her fate.

Her family’s little princess was also of age to slay dragons with a sword now.

After ending the three-day hot springs trip, Suizi and Chen Lijun went for their routine maternity check-up.

Everything looked good with the check-up results, and the doctor even let Suizi see the ultrasound.

The black and white ultrasound was a dark blur, and Suizi couldn’t make out anything.

"Aunt Wang, what do you think I should make for the baby’s clothes, blue or pink?" Suizi asked.

At this stage of pregnancy, the gender could already be determined. The doctor was a friend of Fan Huang and could speak more directly.

"Which color do you prefer?" Aunt Wang asked with a cheerful smile.

"Actually, I’m fine with either, but my daughter said she likes blue, so I bought more of that."

This exchange allowed them to communicate seamlessly without revealing too much.

Suizi was actually asking about the baby’s gender. Luoluo had been insisting it was a boy, and the Chinese medicine practitioner Fan Huang had found also felt it was like a son, so Suizi had bought a lot of fabric for boys.

"Haha, your maiden is really a considerate little cotton-padded jacket, quite accurate in her observations," Aunt Wang laughed.

Suizi felt relieved.

It seemed a boy was indeed correct.

"What were you whispering about with the doctor?" Chen Lijun sat up and wiped the coupling agent off her belly with a tissue.

"Nothing much." Suizi went over and whispered in Chen Lijun’s ear, leaving Chen Lijun surprised, then reaching out to punch her.

"Hey, even if it’s a balanced family with both a son and a daughter, there’s no need to start disliking your good maiden so soon," Suizi said with feigned grievance.

"You naughty girl! Couldn’t you leave me some surprise? I was looking forward to seeing it myself a few months after giving birth."

"When you’re insincere, try not to smile so happily, alright? Otherwise, I’ll suspect you of preferring sons over daughters," Suizi teased.

Chen Lijun was amused by her banter. Actually, she would be happy whether it was a boy or a girl, but knowing in advance still left her somewhat unwilling, and Suizi had guessed it right.

Over the past few months, Suizi had been eagerly stockpiling items for a baby boy, and Chen Lijun was annoyed by her daughter’s overflowing confidence, even hoping to have another girl just to spite Suizi.

"Let’s hurry to watch the show now that the serious business is over. After watching this one, we’ll still have to rush to another scene to ruffle some feathers this afternoon."

"Rush to what scene? Ruffle... feathers?"

Chen Lijun was puzzled.
