Chapter 117 Debate
Gu Yihan rested her head on Lu Huailin's shoulder, thinking that the woman who married Shen Yujie was a bit pitiful.
She couldn't help but ask, "Won't Shen Yujie, with his obsessive love for love, cheat on me after we get married?"
After hearing Gu Yihan's words, Lu Huailin asked in confusion, "What is a severe case of being love-struck?"
Gu Yihan smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just an illness that can't be cured."
She then added, "His family, relatives, life, career, and responsibilities are all inferior to those of his lover, Qiao Shuhui."
"That's why I said any woman who marries him would be ruining her life."
Lu Huailin picked up Gu Yihan and let her lie on his chest, then gently pecked her lips.
He chuckled softly: "You're worrying about others? Don't worry, that woman was just trying to avoid being sent to the countryside as an educated youth."
"Since you're not sleepy, let's do something meaningful."
After saying that, Lu Huailin hugged Gu Yihan and rolled over to kiss her, their lips meeting.
After their lovemaking, Gu Yihan was so tired she could barely keep her eyes open and fell asleep.
Soon, the day of Shen Yujie's wedding arrived.
After getting up early in the morning, Gu Yihan took out a modified military uniform from the wardrobe and put it on.
Lu Huailin was also wearing a military uniform when he saw Gu Yihan's clothes.
He strode forward, took her hand, and exclaimed, "My wife looks good in everything, but she looks even better without clothes."
Gu Yihan glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
When the two arrived at Shen Yujie's house, it was almost 11 o'clock.
Lu Huailin led Gu Yihan to an alley.
Shen Yujie and a female comrade were standing at the entrance of the courtyard when they saw Lu Huailin and Gu Yihan. They quickly stepped forward to greet them.
There was no trace of wedding joy on his face as he asked, "You've arrived?"
Lu Huailin's lips twitched slightly: "Uncle Chen is here too?"
Shen Yujie's face stiffened: "My parents are here."
The woman behind her smiled and walked up to Gu Yihan: "Sister-in-law, I am Yu Shanyue, Shen Yujie's wife. You can call me Shanyue."
Gu Yihan smiled and greeted Yu Shanyue, "Shanyue, you are really beautiful."
Yu Shanyue affectionately took Gu Yihan's arm and said, "Sister-in-law, stop praising me. Let's talk as we walk."
Gu Yihan was absolutely right; Yu Shanyue's beauty was particularly aggressive, not gentle and graceful.
It was a modern, alluring beauty; Gu Yihan herself was somewhat lost in thought as she stared at the other person's face.
She wondered if Shen Yujie could resist such a beautiful woman.
Shen Yujie looked at Lu Huailin with a worried expression and asked, "Qiao Shuhui, she..."
Lu Huailin interrupted him before he could ask a question: "You've already married that woman, you have to take responsibility for her."
"Qiao Shuhui's matter has nothing to do with you anymore."
Shen Yujie stared at Lu Huailin with bloodshot eyes and roared in a low voice, "Why can you have a wife who is not your equal, but I can't?"
Seeing that he still didn't know where he went wrong, Lu Huailin sneered, "You're asking me? How would I know? You should ask yourself!"
After saying that, he ignored Shen Yujie and went straight into the courtyard.
When Shen's father saw Lu Huailin enter the house, he immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Huailin! Come and sit here."
Lu Huailin didn't stand on ceremony and sat down to Shen's father's right, asking, "Uncle Shen, why haven't I seen Auntie?"
Mr. Shen said meaningfully, "You want to ask why I haven't seen your wife, right?"
“They’re all women in the next room, so it’s easier for them to talk.”
"There are only men in this room, so it's convenient for us to drink."
Lu Huailin nodded and began to talk to Shen's father about work.
Mr. Shen patted Lu Huailin on the shoulder and sighed, "Your father is still the best; he raised such an outstanding son as you."
"Unlike my unfilial son, whose brain has been eaten by pigs."
Lu Huailin remained expressionless and said modestly, "Yujie is also very outstanding."
"Old Lu, you're here so early?" Before he even entered the house, Leng Xiao's voice had already reached the ears of everyone sitting inside.
Leng Xiao walked briskly and sat down next to Lu Huailin. He whispered, "You can rest assured about your wife."
Lu Huailin's lowered eyes flashed, and he asked with a cold smile, "Is there any progress?"
Leng Xiao works at a research institute and isn't so easily fooled. He changed the subject, saying, "Your little hamster is really funny."
"Nothing I said worked. Guess what? It actually likes to be dressed up nicely by others, and even has hair clips on its head."
Leng Xiao sighed and said, "No matter how intelligent it is, it can't compare to a human. There are monitoring devices installed on those hair clips."
Lu Huailin's heart skipped a beat. He didn't respond to Leng Xiao's words, but instead asked him, "You came by yourself, without your wife?"
"Both of her children at home are unwell, so she stays home to take care of them. It must be exhausting taking care of those two little devils."
On the other side
When Shen's mother saw that her daughter-in-law was neglecting her, the mother-in-law, for the sake of a rural woman, she was shocked.
She scoffed, "Only now can a pheasant turn into a phoenix by sticking on some feathers."
“If this were before, we wouldn’t even be able to walk past our own door.”
Upon hearing Chen's mother's words, Yu Shanyue's face turned cold. She patted Gu Yihan's hand, saying apologetically, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry you had to see this."
Gu Yihan's eyes turned slightly cold. She didn't hold back and said directly, "It's alright, today is your big day."
"It just so happens that firecrackers aren't allowed now, so I'll just treat it as a dog barking and add some noise to your good day."
Upon hearing Gu Yihan's words, Yu Shanyue burst into laughter.
After Yu Shanyue finished laughing, Chen's mother noticed that everyone else in the room was looking at her.
The bride's relatives whispered, "Is Shen Yujie's mother a little slow-witted?"
"Shanyue's children must not be like their grandmother, otherwise they won't even recognize when they're being scolded."
Hearing the conversation inside the room, Chen's mother realized that she had been scolded.
Mother Shen jumped to her feet, pointing at Gu Yihan: "Who are you talking about?"
With a mocking expression, Gu Yihan said slowly, "Whoever responds is the one I'm talking about."
