Chapter 178 - 178: 178 Unemotional



“No… no problem.” Li Gui took a deep breath to calm his anxious mood.

“You’ve been following me all the way, and now you’ve come to my house.” She asked indifferently, “Why?”

Li Gui glanced at the half-open window of the Xiao Family’s secondary bedroom. He had been standing there for a while and already knew that Xiao Yishan and Xiao Yuchuan were not at home, only she and Xiao Qinghe were.

With the volume of her voice and the place where he and she were standing, Xiao Qinghe could see everything clearly through the window and hear clearly as well.

She spoke so bluntly, wasn’t she afraid that Xiao Qinghe would be upset upon hearing it?

Or did she simply not care about the disabled man?

Thinking of her washing the toilet bucket for the disabled man earlier, since the second and third sons of the Xiao Family were not there, she must have done it voluntarily. The Xiao family was so poor, yet she still did these things, which proved she was a good woman.

Li Gui no longer concealed it from her. “I came… to see you.”

She hesitated for a moment, repeating, “You came to see me?” since there was a chance of misunderstanding by reading lips.

He nodded.

Xiao Qinghe, who had been watching the outside from the room, felt a sudden contraction of his heart. Li Gui confessed so openly, would his wife like him because of his appearance, family wealth?

Knowing in his heart that the Li Family’s life was much better than the Xiao Family’s, he selfishly hoped his wife would not be tempted.

Instead of being moved by Li Gui’s confession, Su Qingyue became even more angry. “Don’t you know I’m someone else’s wife? I’m disgusted by your behavior towards a married woman. Who gave you such courage to be so presumptuous when we are strangers?” She glanced at his clothes, “Is it because of the money in your pocket?”

“I…” He didn’t know how to explain. He felt a little guilty about her unfriendly words. Perhaps it was because his money and family could not be compared to the Xiao Family, and he was indeed proud. Knowing that the Xiao Family’s disabled man was at home, he dared to wait outside like this, obviously not putting the Xiao Family in his eyes.

Just by looking at his face, she knew she had guessed correctly. “Don’t come again, it’s not good to be misunderstood. Besides, I don’t like to see you.”

Not waiting for him to say anything, she went back into the kitchen. She had always Deen Inditrerent to otners; tne xlao ramuy treatea ner well, Dut sne didn’t want to stay, let alone a stranger like Li Gui. Who was he?

Xiao Qinghe listened to his wife’s words, and the corners of his lips unconsciously hooked up.

Li Gui’s face became embarrassed and annoyed. His charm had always been irresistible to women in the village, but he set high standards for himself; he hadn’t expected to fall for Su Qingyue. With her appearance, she should be grateful that he found her attractive, but instead, she was indifferent and even defiant. He coldly left a few words and turned to leave— “I don’t like women who play hard to get!”

His voice was loud enough for Su Qingyue in the kitchen to hear.

In fact, Su Qingyue was deaf and didn’t know. She was in the kitchen, scooping water from the water jar with a wooden ladle and drinking more than half of it.

The jar was filled with well water brought back, and there was no pollution in ancient times. In May weather, drinking well water was not cold, and during her more than ten days in this home, the family drank well water directly, without the need to be particular about drinking boiled, cooled water.

She refilled the water pot, carried it back to the secondary bedroom.

She placed the water pot on the table by the bed, added water to the broken cup, and passed the cup of water to Xiao Qinghe.

He took it and silently drained the entire cup of water..
