Chapter 85: Night Before the Divorce the Villainous Family Can Hear My Thoughts!

 Chapter 85: The Harvesting of Leeks Begins!

"No, no need!" Shen Cheng stopped him. "It’s fine…"

"What do you mean ‘it’s fine’?" He scolded lightly, "Listen to me, don’t tough it out. Let’s go to the hospital for a check-up…"

"I'm just on my period." Shen Cheng said flatly, "Let me down, I need to go to the bathroom."

Huo Xingjian didn’t speak, but reluctantly let her go, scratching his nose in annoyance.

"We’re out of sanitary pads at home, go buy some," Shen Cheng instructed him without hesitation.

"You want me to go buy them?" His face turned faintly red.

"Are you saying I should go?" Shen Cheng asked, her lips curling into a strange smile.

【This isn’t the first time you’ve done something like this. You’ve been buying sanitary pads for Li Qingxue, right? Isn’t that a piece of cake for you?】

【Every time Li Qingxue gets her period, you’re either making her brown sugar water or bringing her a hot water bottle, reminding her not to touch cold water, not to eat this or that.】

【When it comes to me, you suddenly act clueless! Don't think I’ll forgive you just because you say a few sweet words! No way!】

Huo Xingjian: "…"

How does he not know he’s done those things for Li Qingxue?

No, he wasn’t this shameless, was he?

He and Li Qingxue had known each other for almost two and a half years. She had been lying in the hospital bed for more than two years.

In those two to three months, how could they have had such deep contact?

He was a man of principles and morals, and he knew he was married.

He had never spent time alone with Li Qingxue.

So, this must be something her… system told her, right? Or maybe it’s some kind of original plot?

Huo Xingjian felt innocent and helpless. Even though he hadn’t done any of these things, she was pinning them all on him.

And he couldn’t even argue, because if it weren’t for her sudden awakening, if it weren’t for that system, everything would be following the original plot.

Fine, then, he’ll just change the script.

"I’ll go buy it. You rest, I’ll be quick."

【That’s exactly how you got him to leave, huh? You think you can play games with me? Do you really think I’m so easy to manipulate?】

【When did I ever tell that dog-man when my period was?】

Just as Huo Xingjian reached the door, he suddenly stopped upon hearing Shen Cheng's inner thoughts.

Shen Cheng, just wait. One day, I’ll get you to soften up.

Shen Cheng met Li Qingxue again, this time while she was shopping with Huo Yushu.

To be more accurate, they were out with Huo Yushu looking for inspiration to renovate the storefront at Yun Jiuting and open a studio.

But twelve storefronts were a bit too much.

The two women discussed and decided that six of the storefronts would be kept for their own studio, while the other six would be rented out.

Extra income, of course.

Each of them was holding a milk cup, planning to head into a women’s clothing store to have a look.

"Yushu, Miss Shen." A familiar voice rang out, and soon they saw Li Qingxue with her sister Li An An and Huo Yuyan inside the store.

"Ugh, how unlucky!" Huo Yushu sighed softly.

【Ugh, could this be the scene from the original plot where Li Qingxue humiliates me?】

【She was swiping Huo Xingjian’s card, showing off in front of me.】

【Right! Li An An even said that Huo Xingjian had been giving Li Qingxue the card for over three years, meaning she knew him before we got married.】

【That dog-man wasn’t this generous to me as his wife. He didn’t even give me a card when we got married, but he’s so generous to that wild woman, Li Qingxue!】

Huo Yushu: "…!"

Bro, you’re beyond saving! I can’t help you anymore!

"Sis, watch me swindle them out of some money," Huo Yushu whispered in her ear. "Whatever they’ve consumed, I’ll make them spit it out slowly. Whether it’s the Wen family’s money or the Huo family’s money, it’s all yours!"

【See, my little sister is much more thoughtful than Huo Xingjian, that dog-man.】

Huo Yushu: Aww, I’m so touched! My sister-in-law just praised me!

"Qingxue, An'an, Yuyan, what a coincidence!" Huo Yushu greeted them with a bright smile, her eyes fixed on Li Qingxue. "Wow, Qingxue, you’re walking again!"

"How did you recover so quickly? It’s like you’ve been blessed! It’s clear my brother hired the best medical team for you!"

Li Qingxue smiled faintly, "The doctors said my recovery is very good."

【Bullshit! Her leg was never injured! She wasn’t even in a coma for two years, just three months! In those two years, she tricked Huo Xingjian out of so much money!】

【That so-called medical team was arranged by Huo Xinglang. They’re all people from Huo Xinglang’s side, who’ve been scamming Huo Xingjian’s money!】

Huo Yushu: Good! Very good! My brother, the walking ATM, deserves it!

Now, it was time to make these scumbags bleed a little.

"Well, this calls for a big congratulations!" Huo Yushu took Li Qingxue’s arm affectionately. "Qingxue, what clothing caught your eye? Let me buy it for you!"

The moment she said that, Huo Yuyan’s guard went up.

The fear of being tricked at the bar came rushing back.

"Yuyan, what’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?" Huo Yushu asked, a fake look of concern on her face. "If you’re not feeling well, you should see a doctor! You can’t just tough it out."

"There are some illnesses that need to be treated, even if you don’t say it out loud, you still have to see a doctor."

"I’m not sick!" Huo Yuyan shot her a hateful glare. "Stop talking nonsense!"

"Oh," Huo Yushu responded indifferently. "If you say you’re not sick, then you’re not. Your body, your choice. I can’t make the decision for you."

"Huo Yushu, you’re the one with a problem! Your brain is the one that’s sick!" Huo Yuyan gritted her teeth and glared at her.

Huo Yushu didn’t argue, instead looking like she was easy to talk to and easy to deceive.

She picked out the most expensive dress in the store and handed it to Li Qingxue. "Qingxue, I think this dress would look great on you. Try it on!"

"No…"

"Go on, go on!" Without giving her a chance to refuse, Huo Yushu pushed Li Qingxue into the fitting room.

Then, she handed a matching dress to Li An An. "An'an, I think this would look good on you too. You and Qingxue can match. Try it on, I’ll buy it for both of you."
