“But I heard that you ordered Cheng Shouping to do it together with him Do you view hitian asked
“Pui! I just can’t stand that skunk!” Rage boiled up inside her as she thought of Cheng Shouping and his fawning se her to pick out concubines for her husband! “Besides, a hundred copies is too et someone to help Zu An, he won’t be able to finish it even if he worked through the night”
“I didn’t think that tian burst into laughter After he regained his composure, he continued, “However, Zu An doesn’t seeht child Given his wits, I doubt that he’ll be able to appreciate the deeper intentions behind your actions”
Qin Wanru was silent
This possibility seemed plausible No, it was definitely the case How else could that fellow have become such a renoastrel in the city, if not for an otherworldly level of stupidity?
“Should I play the good tian offered
Qin Wanru thought about it for asome snacks over too so that it doesn’t appear too abrupt”
“Alright” Chu Zhongtian smiled The entire world said that he hadjust a slave to his wife However, he knew very well that his wife possessed a sharp mouth but a soft heart She was much better than those who put on a tender front but schemed in the shadows

Since Zu An wasn’t here anyway, Cheng Shouping found no reason to hold back
“That scoundrel! How dare he!” Even the usually kind and patient Chu Zhongtian was infuriated by Zu An’s audacity, especially considering how ht his wife had put into this How could that brat snub his wife’s goodwill? The ht about it, the more he couldn’t stand it
He stormed out to settle the score with Zu An He’d barely taken a few steps when he sensed Cheng Shouping following hiwas ied to find such a perfect excuse on the spot Not only would he be able to avoid his current punishment, he could also earn soence he possessed!
Chu Zhongtian snorted dismissively “There’s no need for that, I’llthe family rules” This was the bastard who spread the news that he’d been grabbed by the ear by his wife, turning histock of the whole city He couldn’t help but feel a surge of rage every ti widened his eyes in disbelief

Huh? It’s my father-in-law this time around? What in the world could have happened to cause even a kind man like him to lose his temper?
As Zu An turned the question over in his ed into his room, clearly incensed“You brat! You’re indeed here!”
“Father-in-law” Zu An struggled to rise from his bed and failed “Pardon reet you properly”
The way Zu An addressed hitian’s eyelid twitch uncontrollably For so Zu An call him ‘father-in-law’ His attention was pulled away by the rest of Zu An’s words He exclaimed in astonishment, “You’re injured?”
“Yes, father-in-law” Zu An looked at Chu Zhongtian indignantly
Chu Zhongtian rushed forward to examine him “You’re severely injured! How did this happen?”
