Chapter 539: Chapter 546: True Intentions
“Husband, look at him, how annoying a person must be to become so irritating, and yet he keeps hovering around me, really drives me crazy!” Su Wenyue pointed at Sikong Ling’s departing figure, her tone brimming with dissatisfaction. She hadn’t forgotten that Han Yu had mentioned that he didn’t like to see her spending time with Sikong Ling, so she had to clarify the situation immediately, especially since it was Sikong Ling who had come to her on his own.
“Alright, don’t be mad, what exactly happened, and how did that guy Sikong Ling piss you off again?” Han Yu rubbed his wife’s head, smoothing her hair while he did so. Seeing the flush still on her face, it was clear that Sikong Ling had indeed angered her. Walking into the house and seeing the broken porcelain scattered all over the floor in disarray, his brow twitched. He had only been gone for a short while, and such a scene had already unfolded. It seemed that Sikong Ling had chosen the timing of his visit on purpose.
Only after learning the full story did Han Yu find it somewhat amusing. It was ridiculous that a few arguments could escalate to this extent between these two obviously incompatible individuals. Though Sikong Ling had intentionally provoked the situation, his wife’s dislike of Sikong Ling was a fact.
Han Yu himself didn’t really understand what Sikong Ling was thinking. He clearly had feelings for his wife, but every action he took seemed to be the exact opposite of what would win her affection, even to the point where she would become utterly repulsed at the mere mention of him. Although his wife looked quite cute when ruffled, did Sikong Ling’s actions indicate that his feelings had faded, and it was just a simple crush now?
Although Han Yu wasn’t keen on admitting that others fancied his wife, it was normal given how outstanding she was. As long as no greedy thoughts emerged, he could accept this kind of simple admiration and appreciation for his wife.
“Husband, when can we leave this place? If I have to keep seeing that scumbag, I’ll definitely be angered to death!” Su Wenyue was still fuming.
“Very soon. I’ve already figured out the arrays and mechanisms at the mouth of the valley, just waiting for the right moment to take you out. Just bear it a little longer, you don’t need to bother with someone like Sikong Ling. Arguing with him will only end up hurting you,” Han Yu said. The player was lost in the game; his wife hadn’t realized yet that Sikong Ling was just teasing her.
“I know, but it’s just so frustrating. You have no idea how awful he is. He always tries to stir up trouble in front of me, to drive a wedge between our relationship as husband and wife. He even beat around the bush trying to get information about you from me. Does he really think I’m that foolish? I won’t fall for his tricks!” Su Wenyue felt the need to report Sikong Ling’s ‘evil deeds’ to Han Yu, in case he wasn’t aware.
“Sikong Ling is too crafty. Even if you have some cooperation with him, you need to be wary. In the eyes of people like him, anything can be sacrificed for family interests, aside from their own, let alone temporary cooperation,” Su Wenyue actually understood very well. She had long intended to remind Han Yu; she was simply using this incident as an opportunity to do so without dwelling too much on Sikong Ling’s affairs, which could upset Han Yu.
Hearing his wife’s words, Han Yu didn’t take it lightly; instead, he responded seriously, “Wife, don’t worry. My dealings with Sikong Ling have always been about mutual interest, without complete trust or anything more. I’ll be careful.”
