Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Too Much Eating _1 Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Too Much Eating _1 “Shut up!” Qiao Jingxuan snapped angrily, “Can you or not?”
“Yes, definitely. I said earlier, if we cooperate with each other, we can certainly get what we want.”
“Alright then! You can leave now.”
“Wait… how is this enough?” He Jinlan gave a sly, creepy smirk that made Qiao Jingxuan’s skin crawl.
She walked up to Qiao Jingxuan, taking his hand and placing it on her own cheek in a fit of madness, saying, “Hit me here, hit me hard, you have to be forceful.”
“Have you gone mad?” Qiao Jingxuan looked at He Jinlan as if he were staring at a lunatic.
“You think I want this?” He Jinlan shrieked hysterically, “But how else am I going to return to the Huo family? Do you think everyone else is a fool?”
Finishing her sentence, she let out a ferocious laugh. “I was the fool before for thinking everyone else was. That’s how I got kicked out of the Huo family. Now I’m putting everything on the line, putting myself in danger, and I don’t believe that I can’t succeed.”
“Fine!” Qiao Jingxuan gritted his teeth. “If you’re asking for it, then don’t blame me.” And with that he raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
He Jinlan staggered from the blow, falling dizzily to the ground.
“Come again! It’s still not miserable enough!” Through gritted teeth she rose from the ground, her cheek swiftly reddening and swelling. But to her, the pain was nothing compared to the intense satisfaction filling her heart.
The suffering she endured now, Jiang Nanfei would repay twice over in the future.
“Alright! You asked for it, then I’ll give it to you.” As Qiao Jingxuan struck her again, he felt a strange, exhilarating thrill. There was something truly captivating about this act of violence!
Qiao Jingxuan’s apartment was located near the road, at a walking distance to the school campus, he could hear the school bell even in his apartment.
As the pair continued their brutal fight, less than a hundred meters away, a young maiden pushing her bicycle was watching.
It was Jiang Zhuanzhuan.
With a poker face, her gloomy eyes filled with an eerie glow that sent chills down one’s spine, she clenched her fists that were resting on her bicycle handlebars.
Only when He Jinlan, wobbling and leaning against the wall for support, finally left, did Jiang Zhuanzhuan finally resume her thoughts.
“This is quite interesting.” She mumbled to herself, “My sister is so tough, she will definitely not lose.” She then displayed a puzzled expression.
“No! Qiao Jingxuan is my sister’s first love. What if she can’t get over him?” As she thought about the letter she had stored away, an idea began to take shape in her mind.
She had to help her sister!
“My sister was so foolish to be in love with Qiao Jingxuan! Do all women turn foolish when they fall in love? If that’s the case, then my sister will also turn foolish if she loves her husband.”
Some younger children from the village passed by Zhuanzhuan, noticing she was daydreaming on the side of the road they yelled out, “Jiang Zhuanzhuan, it’s almost nightfall, why aren’t you leaving?”
“Let’s leave together! Your sister has already brought your little brother home!”
“Alright, I was on duty today, didn’t let my sister wait for me.” Zhuanzhuan quickly hopped onto her bicycle and followed them.
As the sky darkened and every household lit their lamps, everyone sat down for their dinner. Today, Zhou Yongxian had a good appetite, even having two bowls of millet porridge, which made Huo Linong furrow his brows.
“Mom, aren’t you eating too much? What if you can’t digest it?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yongxian rapped him on the head with her chopsticks.
Yuan Xueshan secretly chuckled with her bowl to her lips. Even though she was alone, her thoughts had become more clear over time. Ever since He Jinlan left, the house had been more peaceful.
“Unfilial son, what’s it to you if I eat a bowl of porridge? Do you want to starve your old mother?”
