Back to the 1980s: Transmigrated as the Bigshot's Pampered Wife Chapter 81: Nameless Fire

Gu Jiaojiao gave her man a grateful look and waved goodbye to Sheng Shijing.

Sheng Shijing waited until Gu Jiaojiao’s car was far down the road before getting into his own, letting Zhang Weishan drive.

"Boss, Jiaojiao has changed so much."

"Mm."

’She married a dirt-poor disabled man and was publicly disowned by the Sheng Family in the newspapers. How could she not change?!’

Sheng Shijing said no more. He was looking forward to what Jiaojiao would give him tomorrow. He had said he didn’t want it, but he was actually quite excited.

He saw Jiaojiao sitting obediently beside Su Shuochi. ’She must see Su Shuochi as her rock from now on.’

The only reason Gu Jiaojiao was sitting next to Su Shuochi was because that was the only spot left for her in the back seat.

Su Shuochi had requested it. Previously, the driver wouldn’t have dared to sit so close to him. Seeing his wife settled, he imdiately grasped her hand tightly and said, "Jiaojiao~ Just now, two of your big brother’s comrades were staring foolishly at you."

"If I could get out of the car and walk, I would have gone over and beaten them up. Sigh, Jiaojiao, your beauty drives n crazy."

"Your wisdom leaves people in awe. I’m so afraid so shaless guy will try to steal you away. It’s giving a serious sense of insecurity."

Gu Jiaojiao: ...

’What is wrong with this man, hitting on in front of so many people?’

Everyone else in the car: ...

’A Su Shuochi like this is more shaless than anyone. What insecurity could he possibly feel?!’

But no one dared to laugh at Su Shuochi. After all, he was still disabled, and they were afraid he’d be sensitive and get upset.

The car entered the compound and soon arrived at the Su family ho. It was already nine o’clock at night.

Uncle and Aunt Song were still waiting at the Su residence. Sheng Shiwu had just left with a freshly made batch of spicy strips.

"Son, you’ve been in the car for so long. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Aunt Song asked anxiously.

"Mom, don’t worry. With the dicine the Divine Doctor gave , I could go tiger-hunting, let alone sit in a car."

Song Zijie then added happily, "This is one of the Divine Doctor’s patients. He was brought to Qing City for treatnt because his condition is very serious."

"Since he’s the Divine Doctor’s patient, he should co stay with us. When is the Divine Doctor arriving?"

"The Divine Doctor is already here, that’s why her patient ca. She’s very busy, so she didn’t have ti to travel with us."

anwhile, Su’s mother and Mrs. Gu ca forward, each taking one of Gu Jiaojiao’s hands. "Jiaojiao, you’ve been traveling for so long. Are you tired?" they asked.

"Moms, don’t worry, I’m not tired at all. We’re hungry, is there anything to eat?"

"Yes, I’ll go get it right now. You," Su’s mother said, turning to Mr. Su, "go fetch so water for everyone to wash their hands."

"Dad, this is my father-in-law’s friend, Uncle Geng. He’ll be staying with us tonight," Su Shuochi explained.

"Uncle Geng, are you feeling any better? Please, feel at ho and take my room. I can just sleep on the balcony."

Second Brother Gu extended the enthusiastic invitation. ’Poor Uncle Geng,’ he thought, ’my dad is his only friend.’

Su Shuochi was very pleased with Second Brother Gu’s perceptiveness. If Geng Ruixian stayed at the Song Family’s house, his wife would definitely have to run back and forth between the two hos.

’It’s the middle of sumr, so it’s no big deal for my brother-in-law to sleep on the floor. It’s much better to have him stay here.’ "Jingtai is right. Uncle Geng should just stay with us."

Gu Jiaojiao hadn’t expected people of this era to be so hospitable. In later generations, when rural relatives visited the city, their hosts would usually book a hotel for them, rarely letting them stay in their hos.

Soon, the al was served: ginseng chicken soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy and sour shredded pork, green beans with eggplant, and braised winter lon.

Everyone else had already eaten, so the al was originally just for the five people who had just returned.

But Uncle Song wanted to talk to Mr. Gu, so he also sat at the table to keep him company while he ate.

Who would have thought the food would be so delicious? Once he started eating, he couldn’t stop, and he no longer had ti to talk.

Zhang Weishan first dropped Sheng Shijing off at the gate to his family’s courtyard. The mont Sheng Shijing got out of the car, he saw his third brother just returning, pedaling a vintage roadster.

"Xiao Wu, why are you back so late? Shouldn’t you be studying? Where were you fooling around?"

"Big Brother, you’re back! Here, try this." Sheng Shiwu scurried over and handed him a spicy strip.

"You went to the Su family’s house?" Sheng Shijing asked, looking at the spicy strip his third brother handed him. He casually took it and popped it in his mouth.

’Isn’t this what Jiaojiao gave earlier?’ He had just eaten a pig’s trotter and a pack of spicy strips, and they were delicious.

Sheng Shiwu looked at his big brother in disbelief. "How did you know I went to the Su family’s? Mom, Second Brother, and Yueyue have no idea!"

"Yueyue?" Sheng Shijing asked with a frown.

*Whisper, whisper, whisper...*

Standing outside the courtyard, Sheng Shiwu whispered the whole story, tattling on how their sister had demanded a na change.

He even did a passable imitation of Sheng Yueyue’s tone and gestures. Because Sheng Shijing was in a good mood, he didn’t get angry.

"Jiaojiao wants you to sell spicy strips at school? And she told you to switch your major to business administration?"

"Yeah, and I’ve already made ten yuan in the last few days." ’Actually, it was more than ten, but I spent the rest on extra food for myself.’

"Let’s go inside. It’s not right for you to be sneaking around like this," Sheng Shijing said in a serious, aningful tone.

"What other choice do I have? If Yueyue finds out, she’ll definitely throw a fit at ho."

"Last ti, Jiaojiao jumped into the pond to save Mom, but Yueyue said she was just trying to get sympathy. Big Brother, do you think anyone would risk their life just for sympathy?"

"When Jiaojiao jumped into the pond to save our mom, it was from the bottom of her heart. No one would be foolish enough to risk their life for a stunt like that."

Sheng Shijing felt a deep sense of gratification. ’The little sister he raised is indeed kind, loyal, and righteous.’

Sheng Shiwu then started talking about the Gu Family. These were things they had never ntioned in their letters to Sheng Shijing.

"What are you two doing standing out in the courtyard? I thought I heard Shijing’s voice."

Mr. Sheng had been waiting in the living room for his third son’s spicy strips. Nowadays, he couldn’t fall asleep without eating a few.

"Dad, what are you doing out here?" Sheng Shiwu deftly handed his father a pack of spicy strips.

"Dad, it’s . I’m back."

"Let’s all go inside," Mr. Sheng said, munching on a spicy strip as he spoke.

"Are Mom and Lian’er asleep already?" Sheng Shijing asked as he entered the living room and saw no one else around.

’The nine o’clock drama isn’t even over yet. It usually runs until nine-thirty. Jiaojiao used to always watch TV until it was over before going to sleep.’

"These past couple of days, your mom has been tired from rehearsing for a performance during the day, so she’s been going to bed at nine. Yueyue is in her room studying for her college entrance exams."

"Oh. Well, I’m going to go wash up and get ready for bed too. Dad, you and Xiao Wu should get so rest soon as well."

Sheng Shijing glanced up at the second floor. Yueyue’s room was dark. ’She must have gotten tired from studying and gone to sleep.’

Sheng Yueyue was indeed asleep at nine o’clock, but not because she was tired from studying.

Rather, it was because she had a daily rendezvous with Song Zijin in the grove.

Song Zijin had been trying to intercept Gu Jiaojiao for two days without success, and he was in a terrible mood, feeling inexplicably irritable.

So, Sheng Yueyue was doing her best to please him. She was still very confident about getting into university.

In her past life, she had gotten into Qingcheng University on her own rit. In this life, she was focusing her main efforts on Song Zijin.

’The future big shot is worthy of her wholehearted love.’
