Chapter 958: Chapter 958: The Art of Being an Onlooker

"Mom, what’s wrong?" Yu Jingting hurriedly stood up.

Chen Lijun, holding her lower back, rushed over.

"You should go take a look, Fan Hui is making a fuss about drinking pesticide."

"Oh," Yu Jingting said nonchalantly as he squatted back down, "what does his death wish have to do with us?"

"He’s causing a scene in our house, planning to die here. The nanny is trying to talk him out of it."

"Isn’t that crazy? Why pick someone else’s house to die in? Can’t he do it quietly in his own home?" Yu Jingting stood up again.

The father-in-law has been busy with work these past few days, coming home very late.

With things like this, he had to go take a look.

"What in the world is going on?" Suizi, wearing an apron, came out from the courtyard.

"Who knows which wire got crossed in his head, he came to our place reeking of alcohol, carrying a bottle of pesticide... What if he really dies here, what are we going to do?"

Chen Lijun wore a face full of worry.

Whether her scumbag ex-boyfriend was dead or alive, she couldn’t care less.

What she cared about was that he not die in her house.

That would definitely affect her family’s Mr. Fan!

Suizi and her husband returned with Chen Lijun. Suizi originally thought her pregnant mother should stay out of the commotion.

But Chen Lijun insisted on watching the drama, not only that, but she also called over her best friend, Wang Cuihua.

Wang Cuihua hurried out, not even changing her slippers, running a few steps before pausing to think she was missing something, then shouting back into the house:

"Hey, Dad, bring that thing of mine over here!"

"The chainsaw?" Siye popped his head out of the window leisurely.

Under the threat of Wang Cuihua’s gesture to take off her shoe and throw it at him, he fetched Wang Cuihua’s tambourine, asking his granddaughter to deliver it.

Then both the tambourine and the granddaughter ran off.

Luoluo was determined to follow her grandmother, and no amount of calling could bring her back.

Siye was utterly speechless.

"What’s there to see?"

"Heh, women." Bobo, returning from outside and washing his hands, picked up a book and glanced around the room, his eyes finally settling on the rocking chair.

So Siye looked at Xiaosun with even greater speechlessness.

Could these boy and girl twins possibly be any more different? These personalities, couldn’t they just balance each other out a bit?

Outside her mother’s courtyard, Suizi could already hear the wailing sounds from inside.

A few old ladies stood far away, watching eagerly.

Suizi gave Yu Jingting a look, signaling him to disperse the neighborhood onlookers, while she followed her mother-in-law and her own mother into the courtyard.

In the living room, the nanny that Chen Lijun had found for Fan Hui was almost on her knees; nothing she said could placate him.

"Calm down, you don’t look good like this..."

"Wuwu, I’m about to die, I don’t care if I look good!" Fan Hui lay on the ground, clutching a glass bottle, his face streaked with tears and snot.

"How on earth did you get so desperate?" Suizi asked, walking over.

When Fan Hui heard her voice, he sat up from the ground, looking at her blankly. From his gaze, Suizi knew he was drunk.

"You’re all executioners!" Fan Hui yelled at Suizi.

"Ah yes, yes, it’s all our fault, come on, give me the bottle..." Suizi went along with him, trying to inch closer.

"Don’t come near me!" Fan Hui roared at Suizi.

Yu Jingting came in and patted Suizi’s shoulder from behind. Suizi stepped back, leaving the main battlefield to Yu Jingting.

"What’s up, buddy, what’s got you down, tell me about it." Yu Jingting squatted down, keeping a five-meter distance from him.

"I don’t want to say—" Fan Hui, intoxicated, was originally going to make a drunken fuss.

A stern look from Yu Jingting, and the animal instinct within him immediately recognized that the man in front of him was not to be trifled with, and he subdued himself subconsciously.

"It’s that bitch Liu Xi, she’s gone too far, boohoo, she’s such a bully."

"How did she bully you? Tell me, and I’ll go beat her up for you," Yu Jingting coaxed him, actually calculating how many seconds it would take to snatch the bottle and find the right moment to intervene and save the person.

"I went to the unit to find her, and she looked at me and actually said to me, said..." Fan Hui covered his face, tears streaming down as he remembered the pain.

Yu Jingting took the opportunity to move a little closer; the distance between them shortened again.

As soon as Fan Hui put his hands down, Yu Jingting immediately stopped moving.

What’s impressive is that he maintained a squatting position while performing all these actions.

Luoluo watched, eyes wide and mouth slightly open, full of admiration for her dad.

Wasn’t this the "Red Light, Green Light, Stop" game they often played?

Dad was so cool.

"What did she say to you? That you’re getting old? That you’ve become awkward?" Yu Jingting asked.

"No, she told me... who are you?"

Fan Hui finished speaking and broke into another round of loud sobbing.

He was so miserable.

The most humiliating thing in the world could not be worse than this.

He held his breath wanting to talk to Liu Xi, but she didn’t even recognize him!

"Pfft!" Suizi couldn’t hold it in and immediately restrained her laughter, reflecting on herself.

How could she take pleasure in someone else’s pain? But it was really funny, and she couldn’t help it...

Liu Xi’s face blindness wasn’t something new, but she could still recognize a few people around her.

Her treatment of Fan Hui showed that she was truly over him.

But Fan Hui couldn’t accept it, feeling deeply humiliated. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and after drinking too much, he ran to Chen Lijun’s house to cause a scene.

"Buddy, Liu Xi provoked you, why didn’t you go to her house to drink the pesticide? Why come to my mother-in-law’s place?" Yu Jingting voiced the confusion everyone had.

"There’s a head for the injustice and a debtor for the debt! If she had married me back then, I wouldn’t have been cuckolded—"

"Wow, my mother-in-law marrying you? You wish you could be cuckolded, but with your philandering nature, are you sure that if you married her, you’d still have a head?"

Your head would probably get chopped off.

Suizi nodded; yes, her mom was that kind of person.

By that time, Yu Jingting could actually have grabbed the bottle. The distance was short enough that he could just reach out, and Fan Hui wouldn’t even have time to react.

But he still "kindly" explained in detail to Fan Hui how Chen Lijun would deal with him if she ever married him.

"If you went whoring outside, she’d drug you at home. The kind you’re holding, she wouldn’t even bother with, it works too fast, doesn’t make you suffer enough. She’d probably go for something chronic and insoluble, like, thallium maybe?"

Suizi and Wang Cuihua nodded together, exactly, Chen Lijun was that ruthless.

Chen Lijun nudged her old friend with her elbow, "Whose side are you on? Teaming up with your son to make fun of me?"

"I think Tiegen’s logic makes sense," Wang Cuihua said softly.

"Do you think it ends with just drugging? No, that’s not painful enough. She’d also transfer your assets, take that money to keep a dozen good-looking young guys. Maybe after you die, she’d even donate your body."

The more Yu Jingting spoke, the more wicked he got, scaring Fan Hui sober.

"Probably not just a simple donation; my mom would likely donate in parts, like corneas, heart, liver, etc. In the end, she might donate your skull to the Art School, for students to sketch."

Suizi added more details.

Fan Hui’s bottle clinked to the ground, terrified.

Yu Jingting took the opportunity to grab the bottle and whistled victoriously.

"With guts like that, what are you doing trying to take any sort of medicine?" His wife’s naive and sweet nature alone could scare him!

"Just let me die, I have no reason to live anymore, don’t stop me—" Fan Hui started to make a scene.

"Jingting, give him the bottle, let him die now,"

Fan Huang appeared at the door with a cold expression.
