Chapter 348: Chapter 342_1 Chapter 348: Chapter 342_1 “Wife, what are you imagining now, talking nonsense? Don’t you know how I feel about you? You’re the only one in my heart in this life. How much more do I need to express before you believe ?”
Upon hearing Erhu’s words, Lin Yue felt a bit better, thinking to herself that Erhu had beco increasingly skilled at coaxing people. However, she wasn’t going to let this issue go lightly just because of a few sweet words. She knew how she felt when she unexpectedly discovered that Erhu had lied to her.
“Confess what? Who believes you! That’s what you n are like, always saying nice things to coax people, full of lies, not a single word true. If it weren’t for discovering it myself today, you were planning to keep lying to forever, weren’t you.”
Erhu wrapped her in his arms, ignoring his wife’s slight struggle. “I swear, wife, I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you’d overthink it. So things should stay between n; won don’t need to know about them.”
In truth, Lin Yue wasn’t very angry anymore. After Erhu’s explanation, she beca even more curious, though she still acted upset. “Then tell , what did you do today? If there’s a shred of falsehood, don’t expect to ever trust you again.”
“Do you really want to know?” Erhu hadn’t yet understood his wife. Seeing her like this, he knew what she was thinking and weighed his words carefully in his mind.
Lin Yue’s eyes widened. “Nonsense, just tell ! It’s better to co clean than resist. What on earth were you doing today, and why did you lie to ?”
“Well, it’s no big deal to tell you. Actually, it does have sothing to do with you. Jiang Wenshu had asked to et him at a restaurant in town. Then we took care of so other business. I didn’t want you to worry about it, so I fibbed. Little did I know that my wife is so clever, and you saw right through my lie.” Erhu said, rationalizing that he hadn’t really lied to his wife, as Jiang Wenshu did ask to et him, though he dismissed him quickly.
As soon as Lin Yue heard Erhu ntion Jiang Wenshu, her attention imdiately shifted to him. “Jiang Wenshu, what did he want with you? He looks decent, but he’s always up to no good. He’s really annoying,” she said.
Lin Yue frowned. After the previous incident, she truly disliked Jiang Wenshu. If it weren’t for the few witnesses present at the ti, her reputation could have been ruined by him. Despite Jiang Wenshu verbally expressing his affection for her, the things he did were truly vile.
Erhu, noticing his wife’s reaction, breathed a sigh of relief. “What else could it be? He’s still thinking about my wife, hoping I’d step down and let others take over, handing you over to him, which is, of course, impossible.”
“That guy is still harboring ill intentions, huh? You don’t have to pay him any mind in the future. The more you engage with people like him, the more encouraged they get.”
“Don’t worry, I have my limits. That’s sothing for us n to deal with; you don’t need to worry about it. But wife, if he does ask you out, you mustn’t go, and you mustn’t et him alone.”
Lin Yue rolled her eyes; this old man, talking and talking, was getting jealous again. “Don’t worry, that guy has problems in his head, I would avoid him if I could.”
“That’s good, wife. Now that you know the reason, you should stop being angry with . Look at your angry little face. My wife is always pretty, no matter what, even when angry, still prettier than anyone else.”
“Humph, this ti I’ll forgive you, but this is the last exception. From now on, you’re not allowed to deceive about anything. Otherwise, I won’t forgive you so easily,” she said.
“Got it, wifey. I was out all day; did you miss ?” Knowing that his little wife was no longer mad, Zhao Erhu’s actions beca more brazen. The arm that was originally around her soon lifted her onto his lap.
“Zhao Erhu, stop it. It’s not even dark yet. How co you think about these things all day long?” Lin Yue could tell what he wanted when she saw Zhao Erhu acting like this. She caught the big hand that was fondling her chest. Since the day Zhao Erhu had won her over, he had been insatiable. No matter how gentle and considerate he was, when it ca to the matters between husband and wife, there was no discussion, and it was not up to her; she had been coerced into so many embarrassing acts, and she was still sowhat inhibited in this respect.
Wrapping his arms around the struggling and fragrant soft body in his embrace, Zhao Erhu gave a wicked smile, “Wifey, we’ve done this so many tis, how can you still be so shy? You are truly a tender-faced little wife; you still need proper training.”
Zhao Erhu’s arms were like iron bars trapping her, Lin Yue couldn’t break free, and could clearly feel the changes in Zhao Erhu’s body. She was teased by his words as well, which made her face turn beet red, and her voice carried a few threads of embarrassed anger, “Zhao Erhu, you old man, you’re a disgusting rogue, so indecent!”
“Heh heh, husband will be indecent just for you. How many tis have I told you not to call ‘old man’? You little thing just can’t rember, you need to be punished!”
“Knock! Knock! Knock!”
Just when Zhao Erhu’s mood was at its peak, a knocking sound ca from outside. Lin Yue, who had already sowhat submitted to Zhao Erhu’s antics, began to struggle again and pushed at Zhao Erhu. “Soone’s here, get up!”
“Who cares who it is. Wifey, let’s continue,” said Zhao Erhu with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. He didn’t want to open the door at that mont and continued to play on top of Lin Yue. But the persistent knocking, as if deliberately opposing him, kept going, making them restless. The little wife refused to let him have his way, so Zhao Erhu had to get up in frustration to open the door. When he saw it was Master Wei and his entourage, his face grew even darker.
Lin Yue had just questioned Zhao Erhu about his deceit and hadn’t had the chance to tell him about Master Wei’s earlier visit. Zhao Erhu was sowhat surprised to see Master Wei and his party at this ti.
“What are you doing here at this hour?” Master Wei had gone out of his way to design and fra their family, not only taking over their business but also being behind every incident at the workshop. Zhao Erhu naturally couldn’t be gracious to Master Wei and didn’t have the slightest intention to invite him in, leaving Master Wei hanging at the door.
“Erhu, our master is here to talk business with you. Let’s go inside and talk, standing at the door like this isn’t proper,” Zhao Lingxiang said with a smile brimming with charm. The master brought her along precisely because of her relationship with Zhao Erhu’s family. Even though she was reluctant internally, cursing Zhao Erhu many tis over in her heart, she still needed to diate, to show the master that she had made an effort.
Zhao Erhu didn’t give Zhao Lingxiang any face. “No need to. We have nothing to discuss. If you have anything to say, you can say it standing here, or please leave.”
Master Wei had thought Zhao Erhu would have more sense than his wife, to recognize the current situation and politely invite him in. After all, he was the one bringing silver to their door. Looking at Zhao Erhu’s now sizeable estate, he knew it would cost a lot of silver coins and was sure Zhao Erhu’s hand would be tight on silver, so he should be currying favor with him.
