"What are you suing me for? It's a matter of mutual consent between you and me, don't try to frame me." Cheng Yi said to Xiaoxiao with a sly grin, showing his yellow teeth.
Xiaoxiao nearly choked with disgust. She couldn't afford to mess with this kind of scoundrel; she could at least avoid him. She turned to walk back, but Cheng Yi grabbed Lanzi. "You'll be my wife once you marry me, why are you running away?"
If it were anything else, I could just throw it away. But those two children depend on this fish soup to live.
Xiaoxiao held on tightly to the basket, refusing to let go. "If you don't let go, I'll scream!"
"Go ahead and shout. If anyone comes, I'll say it: I'm dating you, and I made you angry. This is called 'spare the rod and spoil the child.'" Some of the fish soup had already spilled, making the aroma even stronger. Cheng Yi held onto the basket even tighter, reluctant to let go.
"You're talking nonsense. I'm not dating you." Jiang Xiaoxiao was on the verge of tears. She had thrown down the basket, and Cheng Yi definitely couldn't catch up with her now. But she couldn't bear to part with the fish soup. Xiaoxiao struggled with Cheng Yi.
"In a little while, my sister-in-law will see me kiss you. She'll call everyone in the village, and that'll prove we're dating!" Although Cheng Yi's leg wasn't fully healed, he was still a man, and Xiaoxiao couldn't possibly outmaneuver him. Worrying about the fish soup would only put her in a more passive position. Hearing this, Xiaoxiao was terrified and wanted to drop the basket and run away.
Cheng Yi was almost fully recovered; he had actually thrown away his crutches, holding the basket in one hand and Xiao Xiao in the other. Being a man, he was definitely stronger than Jiang Xiao Xiao.
"ah!"
Just when Xiaoxiao thought she really couldn't escape, Cheng Yi was kicked away. Turns out, good fortune had arrived.
Cheng Youfu, holding the basket in his hand, kicked Cheng Yi away.
"Youfu..." Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she burst into tears when she saw Cheng Youfu.
Seeing Xiaoxiao cry, Youfu's anger flared up. "Here you go!" he shoved the basket into Xiaoxiao's hands. He then picked up the crutch from the ground and started hitting Cheng Yi...
"Hey, what are you doing?" Cheng Yi's sister-in-law came over and stood in front of Cheng Yi. She did this not because she felt sorry for her brother-in-law, but because she was afraid that Cheng Yi's injury would get worse and he would never recover! He had eaten all the good food in the house, and her own children hadn't gotten a single bite.
"Sister, let's go." Youfu pulled Xiaoxiao away.
Xiaoxiao felt a little uncomfortable being pulled by Cheng Youfu. She pulled her hand back. "I'm fine now, thank you for earlier."
"Sister, don't thank me. If it weren't for keeping He Da Mei in check, you wouldn't have come here. Don't worry, next time I run into that bastard, I'll teach him a lesson," Cheng Youfu said.
Jiang Xiaoxiao pulled the scarf up higher, trying her best not to let anyone notice anything unusual about her.
Actually, if you spill fish soup all over yourself, anyone would notice something's wrong.
