Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Marrying Carelessly is Like Inviting Self-Destruction Mode
After Xu Mingzhe left the hospital room, Wang Ma looked uneasily at Ye Xunhuan and asked, "Son-in-law, did I say something wrong just now?"
Wang Ma could tell that Xu Mingzhe harbored not just animosity towards Ye Xunhuan, but also hatred!
"No!" Ye Xunhuan feigned confusion and said, "Did Wang Ma say something else?"
"Did I really not say anything wrong?" Wang Ma still asked skeptically.
"Nope!"
"But I saw that young master Xu..."
"Wang Ma, you’re overthinking it, there’s nothing to it!" Ye Xunhuan said indifferently, "He doesn’t know that Qiu Ruoxi and I are husband and wife. Last time we had dinner together, I tricked him into buying two bottles of red wine, he’s probably still upset over that!"
Wang Ma, after all, was a modest woman, not privy to everything. Hearing what Ye Xunhuan had said, she breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought I had said something wrong!"
"That young master Xu is too petty, it was just tricking him out of two bottles of wine. We could just have the miss pay him back with two bottles another day..."
Qiu Ruoxi couldn’t help but sigh over Wang Ma’s naivety.
If it were truly as simple as two bottles of wine, it would be fine, but her cheap husband had duped Xu Mingzhe numerous times!
He had been treating the man like a monkey, and if it weren’t for today’s revelation of Ye Xunhuan’s identity, he most certainly would have continued to dupe Xu Mingzhe.
However, this was for the best. Aside from Ye Xunhuan playing tricks on Xu Mingzhe a few times, there were no other conflicts or grudges. Who knows what kind of hatred could have erupted later on!
Ye Xunhuan sat down nearby and then picked up an apple to nibble on, "Seriously, the apples Xu Mingzhe brought are quite sweet!"
"Forgot to ask him where he bought them from!"
Qiu Ruoxi was speechless.
After taking a couple of bites, Ye Xunhuan seemed to remember something and said to Qiu Ruoxi, "Let me peel an apple for you to eat!"
Picking up an apple and a fruit knife from the bamboo basket nearby, he began peeling the apple with rapid movements.
In Ye Xunhuan’s hands, the fruit knife seemed to come alive, or as if it was stuck to his hands. With just a twist, large swathes of apple peel fell off!
Ye Xunhuan’s hand speed was so fast that Qiu Ruoxi, even from a close distance, couldn’t discern the precise trajectory, only seeing the tiny fruit knife shimmering with countless gleams, twirling continuously around the apple, the peel falling down unbroken from the fruit.
After peeling the apple, Ye Xunhuan handed it directly to Qiu Ruoxi, "Here, take a bite!"
Just as Qiu Ruoxi reached out her hand to take it, Ye Xunhuan suddenly pulled the apple back, cursing under his breath, "Damn, I almost forgot, you’ve got appendicitis, you can’t eat cold stuff right now, Xu Mingzhe almost got me!"
"I’ll just eat it myself!"
With those words, Ye Xunhuan bit into the apple and started munching noisily.
Having witnessed this, Qiu Ruoxi felt her teeth itch with irritation; this jerk was doing this on purpose, no doubt about it, he was absolutely doing it on purpose.
He was trying to annoy her!
She had actually thought he had changed for the better!
It was all an illusion, an illusion.
Qiu Ruoxi was fuming, but Ye Xunhuan was enjoying the apple, and even said while eating, "Wife, that Xu Mingzhe is really sinister, knowing full well you have appendicitis and can’t eat this kind of stuff, yet he still deliberately brought it to visit you!"
"That guy never wanted you to be discharged, he wanted you to stay here forever, almost caused me to make a mistake too..."
Shameless!
Could there be anyone in the world more shameless than him?
"Ye Xunhuan, can you be any more shameless?" Qiu Ruoxi said through gritted teeth, looking at Ye Xunhuan.
"What do you mean by ’shameless’? I’m just telling the truth!" Ye Xunhuan said as he turned to look at Wang’s mother: "Wang’s mother, am I right or not?"
"Right!" Wang’s mother immediately echoed: "Sir is right, Miss, you can’t eat this stuff now, Sir is indeed looking out for your best interest!"
"That Xu youngster looks like he’s up to no good."
Qiu Ruoxi couldn’t help but feel a sense of powerlessness within her heart.
Alright, it was one thing for her parents to side with this jerk, but now even Wang’s mother was on his side as well.
Was this meant to leave her completely isolated?
"Wang’s mother, how could you also side with this jerk..."
"What the Sir said is correct!" Wang’s mother said very seriously: "Miss, you can only have some porridge and such, and even greasy food has to be limited now..."
Hearing Wang’s mother doting in her ear, Qiu Ruoxi felt utterly speechless inside!
Meanwhile, Ye Xunhuan was looking at Qiu Ruoxi with smug satisfaction, as if to say, see, I’m doing this all for your own good.
"Wang’s mother, I’m hungry now, I want something to eat..."
"Alright, alright, I’ll make you something right now!" Wang’s mother hurriedly said: "Sir mustn’t have eaten either, I’ll make some extra!"
Although the ward Qiu Ruoxi stayed in was not an intensive care unit, it was indeed a high-class VIP ward, a large ward for her alone, and it even had a small independent kitchen inside!
It was for patients who have a penchant for cleanliness or who don’t want to eat hospital meals to cook for themselves!
It can be said that as long as you could think of it, this hospital had it covered, so it was only logical that the medical fees were expensive.
"You’ve offended Qi Shijie, and now you’ve also offended Xu Mingzhe, I wonder how you’ll get by in the future!" Qiu Ruoxi huffed.
"Don’t be so ungrateful, will you?" Ye Xunhuan was immediately displeased: "My enmity with them has to be thanked to you!"
"How could I possibly have made enemies with them if not for you?"
"So you’re blaming me?"
"Who else could I blame?" Ye Xunhuan said indifferently: "Look, if I hadn’t married you, I’d be free now, right?"
"If I hadn’t married you, I wouldn’t have these two enemies, and no one would see me as a thorn in their side..."
Listening to Ye Xunhuan’s words, Qiu Ruoxi fell into deep thought, it seemed like that was indeed the case!
But then, Qiu Ruoxi immediately snapped back to reality, her almond-shaped eyes glaring furiously at Ye Xunhuan: "Are you saying that marrying me is like marrying endless trouble?"
Ye Xunhuan let out a slight sigh, his tone somewhat subdued: "Although I really don’t want to admit it, since you’ve brought it up, if I deny it, that would just make me seem dishonest!"
"You..."
"Wife, I’ve come to a conclusion now!"
"What conclusion?" Qiu Ruoxi asked, suppressing the rage in her heart.
"When a man is looking for a woman, he can’t choose one who is too eager, like you are, far too eager. Even when faced with a woman who is doubly eager, he still needs to be very cautious. Observe a while to see if marrying her will bring trouble!" Ye Xunhuan said earnestly: "Otherwise, marrying carelessly is akin to courting self-destruction!"
"Look at me, although I married you, a wife who is as lovely as a flower, delicate and enticing, the envy of so many men, who knows that in fact, I have initiated the self-destruct mode..."
Qiu Ruoxi’s face turned an extreme shade of livid, and at that moment, her breathing became rapid.
