Shen Zhixia transmigrated into a 1960s novel, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.
The ex-wife, a wealthy capitalist young lady, inherently looked down on the male lead, who ca...
Chapter 456 Dispute
At this moment, the woman inside the car said unhappily, "Why are the windows closed so tightly? It's suffocating!"
An old lady standing nearby chimed in, "Yes, why would you close the windows so tightly for no reason?"
Mrs. Huo frowned. She closed the window because the staff had told her that the monkeys could hurt people and advised her to close it. The staff clearly heard her, but acted as if they hadn't heard her at all, as if she had deliberately closed the window.
She wanted to explain, but then felt it was unnecessary, so she opened the window a little bit—just enough to keep the monkey out while still allowing some air to circulate.
The two women snorted, their faces becoming even more arrogant. They mistook Mother Huo's tolerance for fear of them, which made them even more self-important.
When traveling, Mrs. Huo only wanted to have a good time and didn't want to cause any trouble.
The man remained silent the whole time.
Next, they saw many more animals.
Giraffes, sika deer, camels, yaks, red-crowned cranes... they have everything, a feast for the eyes.
"I need to use the restroom."
"That's what the young woman in the car said."
The staff member replied, "Okay."
So the car stopped in front of us.
Shen Zhixia noticed a sign that read "Safe Zone".
There are still many safe zones along the way, each of which provides rest areas, water and food for sale, and public toilets.
However, public toilets nowadays charge a fee.
Shen Zhixia also took the child and Huo's mother to the restroom.
When they boarded the bus, the couple and the old lady had not yet returned, so they waited for them on the bus.
Mother Huo said, "We haven't seen any tigers along the way."
We all came here hoping to see tigers, but we didn't see any along the way, which was a bit disappointing.
Shen Zhixia took a sip of water and said, "We haven't arrived at the destination yet. The form says that the tigers and leopards are in a deeper area."
The staff member said, "We are about to enter the tiger area. Please be careful and do not close the windows."
"good."
After the couple returned, the car drove inside.
We had already entered the tiger's territory, but we still hadn't seen any tigers.
The woman said impatiently, "Where's the tiger? Didn't you say there was a tiger? You're not trying to scam me, are you?"
The old lady also complained, "We paid money to see tigers, not those boring animals. If there are no tigers, then we want our money back."
The staff explained, "This is already the tiger's habitat. Please wait patiently. There are two tigers in the park, but I don't know where they are now."
Looking out the car window, all I could see were mountains and trees; there were no animals at all.
However, Shen Zhixia sensed a dangerous aura.
Previously, when I was in the park, I could see many small animals. In other animal enclosures, I could occasionally see different kinds of animals running around, but here it was quiet and there were no animals at all.
That means the tiger is probably nearby, so other animals don't dare to approach.
It won't be long before we see tigers.
However, the young woman lost her patience: "I want to get off the bus. It's so stuffy in here. I don't want to stay here anymore. I can't stand it anymore. Let me off! I want to get off! What are you doing blocking me?"
Because Huo's mother was sitting outside the car, any woman who wanted to get out had to ask Huo's mother to move aside, but Huo's mother was sitting properly at the moment.
Mrs. Huo had a good temper, but she wasn't always indulgent. After being pushed, she didn't hold back: "Are you deaf? Where is this? This is a tiger enclosure. Tigers could appear any minute now. Are you trying to get yourself killed by going down there?"
She also pushed the young woman, though not with much force, but it made the young woman feel challenged.
Huo's mother and Shen Zhixia were usually very low-key people. They didn't wear designer clothes; they only cared about good quality and comfort. So, the young woman glanced at them and assumed they were easy to mess with.
She sneered, "You pushed me! You actually pushed me! Do you know that pushing me could seriously injure me? You have to apologize to me, and you have to kneel down and apologize to me, or this matter is not over."
Mrs. Huo thought she was completely insane: "If you hadn't pushed me, would I have pushed you? And your attempt to extort money is so obvious. I just gave you a light push, how could you be seriously injured? You're perfectly fine."
The old woman next to the young woman said arrogantly, "Who do you think you are? Get out of my way! Who gave you permission to talk to my daughter like that?"
They were clearly used to bullying others by taking advantage of their power, so they were adept at it, which made people extremely angry.
Mrs. Huo was indeed furious. She was usually kind to everyone and had never been treated like this before. In addition, she was Huo Chenzhou's mother, so everyone treated her politely. This was the first time she had encountered such a person.
Shen Zhixia tugged at her hand.
When Huo's mother saw Shen Zhixia, she felt extremely wronged. It was as if she had found her pillar of support: "Zhixia, what kind of people are these? The staff said that we can't get off the bus here. I didn't let her get off the bus, was that wrong? One of them pushed me, and another wanted me to apologize. I didn't do anything wrong, why should I apologize?"
Shen Zhixia nodded, indicating that she understood, and then she looked at the mother and daughter.
The young woman was dressed very elegantly. Her hair was all styled in a bun, curly and dyed yellow. Although it looked old-fashioned, it was a very trendy hairstyle at the moment. Her makeup was also exquisite. She carried a designer handbag and looked arrogant with her eyes downcast.
The old lady behind her was also arrogant, looking at Huo's mother with disdain. Both of them exuded the aura of the wealthy.
The man behind them was very thin and remained silent throughout. He neither stopped nor appeased their behavior, as if he had seen it all before and had always been an outsider.
The young woman's eyes remained icy as she looked at Shen Zhixia: "Let me tell you, this car isn't yours. What right do you have to block the way? I'll give you two choices: either apologize and open the door obediently, or open the door right now..."
Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Huo said angrily, "You are all unreasonable. We are all here to have fun. I will not apologize to people like you. This place is not supposed to be a place to go down."
The staff member driving in front also advised, "This is a dangerous area, you can't get out of the car. The old lady did the right thing."
This was speaking up for Huo's mother, which made her feel a little better. She was just following the rules, but these people were really unreasonable.
The mother and daughter immediately started cursing: "We've walked for so long and haven't seen a tiger yet, and you still have the nerve to talk? I bet you're all in cahoots! Give us our money back, give us our money back right now! I don't want to come to a place like this."
"This is the worst place I've ever been. Not only is the place terrible, but I also had to encounter such awful people. It's absolutely disgusting."
After the mother and daughter finished cursing, they pushed and shoved Huo's mother, insisting that she open the door. When Huo's mother refused, they pinched and hit her all over. Although she wasn't seriously injured, she must have been in a lot of pain.
Shen Zhixia frowned and said, "Mom, switch seats with them."
Mrs. Huo paused for a moment: "But if I switch seats with them, what if they..."
What if the door is opened?
Before she could finish speaking, Huo's mother understood the meaning behind Shen Zhixia's words, and she got up and switched seats with the two mothers and daughters.
The mother and daughter were very smug. They thought that Huo's mother had compromised again because she was afraid of them, so they started to mock Huo's mother.
"You should have done this from the beginning. Why did you have to? You should have let us sit outside from the start. The view outside is the best. Why should you all be seated outside from the very beginning?"
"Your wife is so sensible; she knows to ask you to give way to us."
