Cao Juzheng was just excitedly shouting for Mu Fangting to come out.

At this moment, a pair of sharp eyes looked up at Chen Xiaobei. Although she was dressed simply, she exuded an inviolable strength and nobility.

He suddenly felt a little scared.

However, he didn't want to show it on his face.

He then looked directly at Shen Xiaobei and asked, "Are you Shen Xiaobei? Shen Xiaobei, where is my wife? Where did you hide her?"

"Your wife is a living person. How could I hide her? Cao Juzheng, you didn't treat your wife well, forcing her to work outside. How dare you question me?"

"It's none of your business as an outsider to judge me and my wife! As for you, I, Cao Juzheng, have no grudge against you. Why did you incite my wife to run away from home?"

"Where did you take her? Hand her over to me immediately. I want to take her home! Otherwise--"

"Oh, what else?"

Shen Xiaobei has already seen that Cao Juzheng is a man who looks strong but is weak inside, and only relies on his loud voice to bluff people.

Then he sneered and asked with contempt.

"Otherwise, I will stay here with you until you hand over my wife!"

"Oh, I finally understand why you were able to marry Mu Fangting in the first place. I guess you relied on this scoundrel skill to get her, right?"

"Who are you calling a scoundrel? She married me willingly!"

"Oh, so you still remember that she was willing to marry you?"

"She was an educated youth from the city. She was good-looking and had a good temper. She thought you were sincere to her, so she was willing to marry you and worked hard to bear children for you!"

"But what about you? How long after getting married did you change your attitude? You forced her to run away from home! And now you still have the nerve to say you'll take her home?"

"Excuse me, what are you going to use to take her home? What makes you think you can take her home?"

"I, I am her man, it is only natural for her to go home with me!"

Cao Juzheng was obviously lacking in confidence and even began to stutter when he spoke.

Shen Xiaobei was not soft-hearted.

Since this man likes to act like a rogue, she has no choice but to follow his example and act like a rogue like him!

"Right as a law? What law says that just because you're her man, she has to go home with you? Show it to me!"

"If you can't produce it, I'll have to call the police and charge you with trespassing! I'll put you in detention for a few days!"

"You, how dare you? You hid my wife, and now you dare to sue me? I don't believe that there is no law in Beijing, and that we farmers won't be judged by the government!"

"You still know the law? Then why don't you think about the law every time you treat Mu Fangting as a nobody, hit her and scold her?"

"I, I didn't mean to do that to her..."

Cao Juzheng hung his head and his voice became softer and softer.

It seemed that he felt some regret for how he had treated Mu Fangting badly in the past.

This man...

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place!

Shen Xiaobei glared at him and shook his head slightly.

Although she was quite angry that Cao Juzheng did not fight back.

However, since he had some regrets and had gone to such great lengths to find his wife, she didn't want to kill him.

After all, it is always better to leave some room for others so that we can meet again in the future.

Moreover, Mu Fangting gave birth to two children with him.

She was just an outsider between them, and she couldn't really help Mu Fangting make the decision and completely turn against this man.

"Okay, you came all the way here, you probably haven't eaten yet, right? Aunt Zhao, please help make him a bowl of noodles."

"Oh, yes, I'll go down right away!"

Aunt Zhao saw that Shen Xiaobei's tone towards Cao Juzheng softened, so she naturally stopped being hostile towards him.

Turned around and went to the kitchen to make him egg noodle soup.

"You stay at my place tonight. We'll talk about you and Fang Ting tomorrow!"

"Where is Fang Ting now?"

"She's not in Jing City."

"You lied to me, I don't believe you! She left me a letter before she left, saying she was coming to Beijing."

"She came, but then left."

"Then where did she go? Tell me quickly, I'll go find her right now!"

"What's the rush? She's been out for so long, why weren't you anxious before? Why are you so anxious now? Are you putting on an act? I told you, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Shen Xiaobei rolled his eyes at Cao Juzheng and made a few sarcastic remarks to him.

Then he said without hesitation.

“Shen Xiaobei, what’s the difference between saying it today and saying it tomorrow? You have to tell me anyway, why don’t you tell me now?”

"The difference is, I'm not in the mood to talk to you today, but I'll be in the mood tomorrow!"

"You'll stay in that room tonight. Come with me. Put your luggage down first, then have some noodles. We'll talk about everything tomorrow."

“Shen Xiaobei——”

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? If you don't, then go find a hotel on the street!"

Shen Xiaobei said this threatening word coldly, and finally blocked Cao Juzheng's mouth.

It would be very expensive to find a hotel on the street.

What Cao Juzheng lacks most now is money!

This trip to Beijing, with alternating bus and train travel, has almost emptied his wallet, and now he has to count every penny he spends.

How could I dare to stay in a hotel? If I stay in a hotel, I have to buy my own food.

No matter how you think about it, it's still more cost-effective to stay with Shen Xiaobei and get some food and accommodation.

After arranging Cao Juzheng's accommodation, he was allowed to sit at the small table in the kitchen and eat the noodle soup prepared by Aunt Zhao.

Shen Xiaobei went to the hall and called the hotel, and asked the front desk to transfer the call to the housekeeping department for Mu Fangting to answer.
