Chapter 218 Bai Xiaohui and Dong Xiaodi are caught red-handed

Here's what happened: When Brother Dong delivered vegetables to Bai Xiaohui last time, he invited her to go to the zoo to see the giraffes, which happened to be today.

With some unspeakable purpose in mind, Dong Xiaodi arranged to meet Bai Xiaohui not in the morning, but in the afternoon.

Of course, the official reason given is that the zoo is less crowded and quieter in the afternoon, making it a better time for a date.

As for what he's really thinking, only he knows.

But Bai Xiaohui either didn't think much about it and readily agreed.

Along the way, Dong Xiaodi did everything he could to win Bai Xiaohui's favor.

After the two of them leisurely strolled around the zoo, Bai Xiaohui's opinion of Dong Xiaodi completely changed, and she even occasionally looked at him with a hint of sweetness in her eyes.

It was getting dark, and there were fewer pedestrians on the road. As they walked, Dong Xiaodi and Bai Xiaohui walked side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

Bai Xiaohui smiled and gave him a reproachful look, but didn't say anything.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Dong Xiaodi's little scheme began to stir.

The eldest son of the Ren family is back, and it's not right for him to always share a room with the third son.

He has to speed up his pace.

Dong Xiaodi deliberately moved closer to Bai Xiaohui, intimately putting his arm around her shoulder. Seeing that she didn't resist, he was secretly pleased.

He grew bolder and actually tried to lean in and kiss her lips.

Bai Xiaohui seemed to have anticipated this scene, and was not surprised. Instead, she closed her eyes shyly and excitedly.

Dong Xiaodi smiled.

Both of them were eagerly anticipating what would happen next.

Even Dong Xiaodi started thinking about whether they should find a place tonight.

Suddenly a roar,

"What are you doing?!"

Like a thorn, it forcefully pierced between them, breaking the sticky atmosphere.

Dong Xiaodi and Bai Xiaohui separated in a flash, like two startled mandarin ducks.

Both of them stared in alarm at the newcomer, speechless. "Qi... Qi Baifan?!"

No, no, can someone tell her/him, what is Qi Baifan doing here?!

Before the other two could react, Dong Xiaodi darted behind Bai Xiaohui.

There's nothing else to it, I'm just afraid of getting beaten up!

Qi Baifan's angry voice followed.

"Tell me, what are you doing?! Huh!"

Qi Baifan gritted his teeth as he stared at the two people in front of him—no, the two despicable men and women—his anger barely contained.

Who would have thought? He had just finished strolling in the park with Director Wang, and they had a little fun in a quiet spot. Director Wang had to leave first, and he was packing up to go home when he came out and saw a woman who looked like Bai Xiaohui across the street kissing a man with her arms around his shoulder!

Qi Baifan thought he had misread it. After all, he knew how infatuated Bai Xiaohui was with him. She was the one who begged him to marry into her family. How could such a foolish woman who was so devoted to him do something to betray him?

Upon closer inspection, it really was Bai Xiaohui!

He even recognized the adulterer; he was none other than the younger brother of the Ren family's daughter-in-law from the countryside!

Qi Baifan was so furious that if his head could smoke, he would have burned it all off.

First, he was furious that Bai Xiaohui dared to betray him.

Secondly, he was furious that Bai Xiaohui was having an affair, and that she had actually cheated on him with this country boy he had always looked down on!

Despite everyone in the courtyard praising Dong Xiaodi for being diligent and helpful, and seemingly liking him a lot, Qi Baifan had never taken a liking to him.

The saying goes, "like repels like." He could tell at a glance what this kid was thinking. Wasn't he just trying to appear diligent, leave a good impression on everyone, and then use that to marry a nice girl and live off her?

This kid actually wants to compete with me in the same race.

Qi Baifan naturally had no good feelings towards his peers and even looked down on them.

Because in his eyes, Dong Xiaodi's little schemes were very crude and low-level, relying solely on selling his physical strength to attract older men and women. Little did he know that this had no appeal whatsoever to women.

Hmph, showing off one's limited skills before an expert is just Qi Baifan's leftover tricks.

Qi Baifan felt a great sense of superiority over Dong Xiaodi.

But now, his wife, Bai Xiaohui, has actually gotten together with this country bumpkin he looked down on!

The little brother Dong, whom he looked down upon, actually stole his girlfriend!

Isn't this just telling others that Qi Baifan is inferior to even a simple-minded country bumpkin?!

Qi Baifan couldn't accept this fact!

No man can accept his wife cheating on him with a man he despises.

No!

If looks could kill, he could slice that shameless bastard Dong into hundreds of pieces right now!

Brother Dong: "!!!"

Why am I a little scared?

At the same time, he was also indignant.

Damn it, he's out selling hooks and he still cares who his wife dates and what she does?

Occupying the toilet without doing anything!

Why are you so possessive, you bastard?

Qi Baifan glared fiercely at the two people in front of him, especially Dong Xiaodi behind Bai Xiaohui.

I felt both angry and contemptuous.

"Bai Xiaohui, you shameless woman! You actually cheated on me with another man! What have I done to wrong you? Haven't I been good enough to you? How could you be so despicable as to stoop so low as to date such a country bumpkin!"

"A spineless coward who hides behind women whenever trouble arises!"

Bai Xiaohui, who was initially a little guilty, became unhappy upon hearing this.

Why can he sleep with men, but I can't?

Is it just because he has that extra piece of flesh?

She immediately glared at him and cursed back, "Pah! If I'm a slut, what are you anyway, you..."

In a fit of anger, Bai Xiaohui almost blurted out Qi Baifan's affair, but luckily, Dong Xiaodi pulled her back at the crucial moment. His words, seemingly righteous but actually sarcastic, were, "Qi Baifan, you can't be so selfish. You clearly don't love Xiaohui, yet you insist on keeping her by your side in the name of marriage. That's wrong. Xiaohui and I are truly in love. Please grant us your blessing. Xiaohui and I will be grateful to you."

This was mainly meant to annoy Qi Baifan, since he had called him a coward to his face.

They look down on rural people. What's wrong with rural people?

The rural folks even stole your boyfriend!

"Xiao Dong, you're so understanding..."

Dong Xiaodi looked back at her with deep affection, "Xiaohui, you know how I feel. Even if Comrade Qi beats me to death today, I will still be with you."

These words moved Bai Xiaohui to tears. Looking at Dong Xiaodi with deep emotion, she didn't even care that Qi Baifan was right in front of her. She hugged Dong Xiaodi and started crying, "Waaah, Xiao Dong! I want to be with you too!"

Their affectionate display undoubtedly further enraged Qi Baifan.

Those two scoundrels!

Do these two scoundrels think they're dead? They dare to be all lovey-dovey right in front of me!

Qi Baifan felt like he was being cuckolded.

No man could stand that!

I really can't stand even a little bit!

"Aaaaah! You adulterous couple!"

I'll kill you all!

Enraged, Qi Baifan clenched his fist and swung it at the two adulterous couple.

Dong Xiaodi panicked.

Oh no, we've gone too far!

I didn't expect this guy surnamed Qi to be so easily provoked. He hadn't even said two words before he was trying to scare people with his fists.

If he really hits me, how could I possibly be a match for him?

Dong Xiaodi knew he was no match for Qi Baifan. Despite being from the countryside, he was the apple of his family's eye, spoiled by his older sisters. He never did any housework and was a weakling. He really couldn't handle Qi Baifan in his rage.

Moreover, he was in the wrong, and even if the matter were to be publicized, he would still be in the wrong, with no one to help him and his reputation ruined.

What to do? What to do?

His mind raced, and suddenly an idea struck him.

He stepped forward with great masculinity, pulled Bai Xiaohui behind him, and said to Qi Baifan with a sense of responsibility:

"It's all my fault, Xiaohui is innocent. I'll let you hit me, but hit me, don't touch Xiaohui..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Xiaodi rushed towards Qi Baifan. The instant Qi Baifan's fist collided with Dong Xiaodi's, Dong Xiaodi seemed to be out of breath, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed softly to the ground.

Bai Xiaohui: "!!!"

She was terrified. She rushed over, squatted down, and started patting Dong Xiaodi while screaming incessantly.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

"Xiao Dong, Xiao Dong, what's wrong?!"

"Qi Baifan, what did you do to Xiao Dong? Let me tell you, if anything happens to him, I'll make you pay with your life! Waaaaah..."

Seeing that no matter how much she patted him, he didn't react, Bai Xiaohui was on the verge of tears.

Could something really happen to this person?

She's just having an affair, why is it so difficult for her?

"Little Dong, don't die! Please don't die! Waaaaah..."

Qi Baifan: "!!!"

Looking at his own fists, he questioned the meaning of life.

No, he hasn't done anything yet!

But look at Dong Xiaodi, who is lying unconscious on the ground.

For a moment, he really wondered if he had superpowers.

They've all forgotten why they hit people in the first place.

My heart is pounding. Could something really have happened?
