Chapter 174: 174, your home, is like a dragon’s pool and tiger’s den
Main house is the personal residence of Shi Xiuren. Shi Yuhuan and Song Qinghuan stay in a separate building about one hundred meters away.
Both were silent on the way, with Song Qinghuan trailing behind Shi Yuhuan within a step. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
Once inside the house, Song Qinghuan couldn’t help but ask, “Who is that man called Si Chen? Does he bear a grudge against you? You clearly know your house is a den of tigers and wolves, why didn’t you warn me?”
Shi Yuhuan walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped. When he turned around, he saw Song Qinghuan’s little head, right as it bumped into his chest.
“Um…” Song Qinghuan quickly stopped.
“Why should I warn you?” Shi Yuhuan looked down at her.
With puffed cheeks, Song Qinghuan glared at him, “I was helping you. If you had warned me, I would’ve been prepared, and I wouldn’t have been pushed down.”
Shi Yuhuan coldly retorted, “Warning you wouldn’t help. Only through direct experience will you learn how to handle it next time.”
Staring at his elegantly turning tall figure, Song Qinghuan said, “What? Next time?”
Regaining her senses, she continued with disdain, “Absolutely no next time. I’m not coming to this damned place again, understand?”
Ignoring her, Shi Yuhuan went straight into the bedroom.
Quickly following him, Song Qinghuan anxiously exclaimed behind him, “Hey, Shi Yuhuan, I said no more returns, did you hear me or not?”
Shi Yuhuan turned around, his gaze extremely even as he looked at her, “You’re already Mrs. Shi, the wife holding my name. It’s not up to you whether you want to come or not.”
“But it’s all a fake, you didn’t tell me at the wedding that I’d have to deal with so many strange people. It’s so annoying now.” Song Qinghuan pouted, speaking in a miffed tone.
“Do you dislike them that much? Including Grandpa,” Shi Yuhuan asked.
Song Qinghuan was at a loss for a response. She truly disliked them, including Shi Xiuren. The way he looked at her was as if she was here to consume all his assets.
However, she couldn’t tell the truth, as he was Shi Yuhuan’s grandfather after all. Yet, she didn’t want to lie and claim she didn’t mind either.
As such, she fell silent.
A tender look flickered momentarily in Shi Yuhuan’s eyes; he liked that she didn’t lie. Song Qinghuan was indeed contradictory. She seemed to dislike lying, yet she spoke nonsense incessantly.
Every time she didn’t want to speak, didn’t want to go against her heart, but was forced by circumstance to blabber relentlessly, like when he first met her, and the nonsensical response she gave, he had thought this woman was sent by God to add some humor to the world.
After a while, Shi Yuhuan didn’t react, just quietly staring at her. He stood there like an ice sculpture, emitting a chilly aura.
Song Qinghuan thought he was angry. She pursed her lips, contemplating.
In the end, she decided to say something, laughing awkwardly, “Actually, I’m just a passerby in your life. In two years, we’ll divorce. Whether I like them or not isn’t important. As long as you are happy with your family, it’s enough.”
As she spoke, she lowered her head, eyes on the ground.
Seeing no reaction from Shi Yuhuan, Song Qinghuan reluctantly looked up, just in time to meet his deep, complicated eyes.
“Song Qinghuan!” Shi Yuhuan abruptly called her.
Startled, Song Qinghuan replied after a pause, “Uh, yes…?”
“Um…” Before she even finished, Shi Yuhuan’s kiss abruptly landed on her, passionately sealing her lips.
