Wu Dali was genuinely scared and embarrassed, so he was too embarrassed to mention the book again. He could only ramble on about some trivial matters.
After hearing what he said, Xie Yan was both amused and exasperated, and said speechlessly, "Your wife is pregnant, did you know?"
Wu Dali paused for a moment, then nodded. "I know! What's wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan nearly fainted from anger, his eyes widening in disbelief. "How dare you ask what happened?"
"Pregnant women are prone to mood swings, and instead of being understanding, you're arguing with her over trivial matters!"
"How dare you bring up such trivial matters?"
Wu Dali retorted, "Is this a big deal? How is it just a trivial matter?"
Xie Yan: "..."
He took a deep breath. "What important thing is it? Tell me about it."
"Are you out of your mind about that door-opening thing you mentioned?"
"Your wife is heavily pregnant. If you ask her to open the door, what if something happens to her? Can you take responsibility for that?"
"Or maybe you haven't even considered these things at all!"
Wu Dali's face paled when Xie Yan pointed out his secret, and he no longer dared to be arrogant.
Seeing his pathetic state, Xie Yan understood everything!
This person is extremely selfish and only cares about himself in everything he does.
Xie Yan even doubted whether such a person could shoulder the role of a father.
The thought that this good-for-nothing couldn't be relied on in the future, and that Yu Yuehui would definitely have to take care of that side, made her angry and she unleashed a torrent of anger on Wu Dali.
After being scolded by Xie Yan, Wu Dali lowered his head further and further, his face turning red. He stammered, "I... I really didn't think of it that way at the time!" In his heart, he knew that everything Xie Yan said made sense.
But she still stubbornly insisted, "The child she's carrying is also from the Yu family, and the child won't take my surname."
"Even if something needs to be considered, it should be the Yu family who are thinking about these things!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan was so angry he almost stumbled and lost his balance. He looked at Wu Dali in disbelief, "Are you out of your mind?"
"Or is it filled with the recycled products of the five grains!"
Enraged by Xie Yan's scolding, Wu Dali glared at Xie Yan and threatened, "You've gone too far!"
"Don't think that just because Yu Yue is protecting you, I won't dare to touch you!"
"Try cursing me again!"
Xie Yan sneered, took a step forward, and showed no sign of backing down. "Not only will I insult you, but believe me, I'll beat you up too!"
"Listen to what you just said, is that even human language?"
"Does the fact that the child doesn't take your surname mean he's not your biological child?"
"Not your child anymore?"
"So you're not going to call me Dad anymore?"
"According to your logic, if a child doesn't take the mother's surname, then the mother can simply abandon her own child!"
Wu Dali's eyes widened. "Can men and women be the same?"
Xie Yan didn't even want to talk to this kind of person anymore!
He chuckled and said, "With your mindset, you should stay single your whole life."
"He's not worthy of getting married and having children!"
Wu Dali's face turned ashen with anger. He felt that Xie Yan was insulting him because of his crying earlier, and he shouted, "That's going too far!"
Xie Yan rolled her eyes dismissively. "You think this is going too far?"
"What you've done is far worse than this!"
"You should be glad you met a good wife."
"If you ran into my wife, you'd be beaten to a pulp by now, not crying and whining here."
Upon hearing this, Wu Dali immediately pictured Yu Yuehui's powerful hand in his mind, and couldn't help but shudder. He quickly said, "I was just... just in a bad mood, and I was venting my frustration here!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Xie Yan rolled her eyes at his cowardly and bullying behavior, too lazy to argue with him anymore. She turned around, poured him a glass of water, and said irritably, "Drink some water, calm down, and then hurry home!"
Wu Dali nodded obediently. Afraid that Yu Yue would come and beat him later, he took the water cup, drank a few sips, and then slunk home.
When he left, his head was drooping, and his steps lacked the momentum he had taken when he arrived. He looked dejected, a stark contrast to his aggressive demeanor when he came.
Meanwhile, at Cherry's house.
Warm sunlight streamed through the window, filling the room with a cozy atmosphere.
Yu Yue looked at Cherry, who was humming a little tune and looking quite content, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She didn't look like she had just had an argument with someone at all!
However, seeing that Cherry was in such a good mood, she didn't say anything to spoil the mood.
The two sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time. As soon as Cherry saw Yu Yuehui, her eyes lit up and her face beamed with a happy smile. She quickly stepped forward, took Yu Yuehui's hand, and said, "Yuehui, you haven't come to see me for so long!"
Yu Yue smiled and shook her hand in return, "Well, here I am!"
Warm sunlight streamed through the window, gently bathing the two sisters in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. They sat close together on the soft edge of the kang (heated brick bed), whispering intimate words.
Before long, the topic naturally shifted to why Wu Dali ran away.
As they were talking, somehow the sisters' conversation gradually veered off course.
Cherry had a sly smile on her face, her eyes sparkling. She leaned closer to Yuehui, lowered her voice, and asked with a smile, "So, how did you feel after reading the book?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Yue's cheeks instantly flushed red, like a magnificent sunset. Embarrassed and flustered, she playfully slapped Cherry's hand and said sweetly, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Besides, I didn't read those books at all!"
Cherry smiled and said, "It's the same whether either of you sees it or not. Anyway, whoever sees it benefits, right?"
Yu Yuehui was a little embarrassed to talk about these things.
Although what Cherry said was true!
But it's embarrassing to say it out loud!
Cherry, who has been married for many years, has long been an "old hand" in these matters. When talking about this topic, she is very natural and not shy at all.
She widened her eyes, feigning surprise as she looked at Yu Yuehui, and said in a serious tone, "What's there to be ashamed of in this kind of thing!"
"You just haven't experienced enough!" After saying that, he gently poked Yu Yuehui's shoulder, his eyes full of teasing.
"By the way, how's Xie Yan's cooking?"
Yu Yue replied: "!"
She stammered, "Well... well, it's just so-so!"
Cherry, however, wasn't about to let her off the hook, and asked with a smile, "So what exactly happened?"
"Tell me about it!"
"Anyway, Wu Dali is just like that. Don't be fooled by how many tricks he's studied from books; his skills are undeniable."
She sighed after she finished speaking!
