“In the past, when he had money, he would honestly hand it over to you immediately. Why is he dividing the money with his children this time? Could it be that he has discovered something?”
"Especially since he's not even afraid of divorcing you anymore!"
Chen Dazhu believes that Li Junsheng may already know about his relationship with Ma Yulian.
However, he had no substantial evidence.
Ma Yulian understood what he meant, but after analyzing it for a moment, she felt it was impossible.
“If Li Junsheng knew about our affair, how could he possibly stay calm? He would either continue to be a coward or kick me out of the house.”
"It's unlikely he knows about our relationship. I feel like he might be seeing someone else, so he's not afraid of me divorcing him!"
The two men spent a long time speculating about Li Junsheng, but couldn't come to any conclusions.
Even if Chen Dazhu racked his brains, he would never have imagined that Li Junsheng had already had his soul replaced.
Thinking back, everything that was wrong with Li Junsheng started after he drank that day.
Chen Dazhu immediately asked Ma Yulian, "Yulian, what has Li Junsheng been doing these past two days after drinking with us? Tell me everything!"
Ma Yulian also pondered Li Junsheng's strange behavior and then slowly told Chen Dazhu about it.
“Ever since that day he drank, he’s become a completely different person. He won’t do any housework anymore, and he even dares to order me around to take care of him. He’s acting recklessly because we need him to get the certificates we need.”
"He was so cowardly before, but now he can teach the eldest son a lesson whenever he wants, and he even dares to yell at me. When the second son's grandson was sick and asked him for money, he actually gave him two hundred yuan in one go!"
"He seems to have suddenly become much smarter, and he can get the boss to fawn over him and even personally bring him water to wash his face."
Hearing about Li Junsheng's recent strange behavior, Chen Dazhu knew that there was something odd about him.
However, the specific reason for his drastic change in temperament remains unknown.
Chen Dazhu could only instruct Ma Yulian: "Li Junsheng is definitely acting strangely. Stay home and keep a close watch on things. See what tricks Li Junsheng is up to. If anything seems amiss, let me know immediately."
Chen Dazhu sighed. He had thought that buying Li Junsheng's job and getting the money back through Ma Yulian would be a perfect thing.
Unexpectedly, Li Junsheng acted unpredictably, leading to a series of unforeseen changes in the situation.
Ma Yulian listened to Chen Dazhu's words without question.
“Okay, I’ll keep an eye on Li Junsheng. If he has another woman outside, then I’ll take this opportunity to kick him out.”
"At that time, the house and his money will all be ours. Li Junsheng won't be able to take a single penny. I'll also have a reason to teach him a lesson."
Ma Yulian was more than happy for Li Junsheng to have an affair with another woman. Chen Dazhu's eyes lit up when he heard her words.
Li Junsheng's house is worth more than a thousand yuan. If he can get his hands on it, he will really make a killing!
Chen Dazhu put his arm around Ma Yulian and showered her with sweet words, making Ma Yulian completely smitten.
"Li Junsheng, you have such a good woman at home. If you still have someone else outside, you really don't know what's good for you!"
"You've really ruined yourself by marrying him. Seeing you with him, having to take care of several children and a whole family, I truly feel sorry for you."
Ma Yulian said with heartfelt emotion, "Fortunately, Li Junsheng's parents passed away a long time ago, otherwise I would still have to take care of those two old people now!"
"That blockhead Li Junsheng is definitely not as considerate as you are, and your wife is ungrateful too!"
After the two spent some time being affectionate, Chen Dazhu continued against his will, "Yulian, I'm so sorry to have put you through this. Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long. Once Zhiyuan is settled and has found a wife, we'll get married."
"When the time comes, Zhiyuan and I will separate our homes and live our own little lives, doing whatever makes us comfortable every day."
Ma Yulian was immersed in the beautiful promises Chen Dazhu made for her, and she really thought that Chen Dazhu wanted to marry her and live a good life with her!
Ma Yulian, with her slightly robust body nestled in Chen Dazhu's arms, nodded repeatedly in agreement with an extremely coy and affected manner.
"Okay, once Zhiyuan gets married, we'll enjoy our time together as a couple. As long as I can be with you, I won't feel wronged!"
Chen Dazhu chuckled; he had never seen such a stupid woman as Ma Yulian.
"I have to go back to my parents' house now. I'll come see you another day. It's not safe here."
People can come and go at any time in the narrow alley.
Ma Yulian didn't dare to stay any longer, so she and Ma Yulian left one after the other.
As Ma Yulian walked out of the alley, she didn't forget to tidy her hair. Unexpectedly, she was seen by a pair of sisters-in-law who lived next door.
The woman in charge, Sister Zhang, was the most gossipy and talkative woman in the tenement building, and her sister-in-law was just like her.
"Hey, isn't this Sister Yulian? What brings you out of this alley? What are you doing here?"
Ma Yulian never expected to be seen by these two people. Fearing that the two sisters-in-law would gossip about her, she could only pretend to be calm and cover up the fact that she was meeting with Chen Dazhu here.
"The thief I just encountered stole my bag and disappeared into a side alley. I couldn't catch him!"
"Oh, that's serious. Let us take you to report it to the police."
The two women, the aunt and the sister-in-law, came over and pulled Ma Yulian to go report the case, but Ma Yulian stammered, "Forget it, there's nothing valuable in my bag anyway. I have urgent business at my parents' house, so I can't delay!"
With that, she broke free from her sister-in-law's grasp and headed back to her parents' home without looking back.
Seeing her hurried steps, the sister-in-law leaned closer to her sister-in-law and whispered gossipy, "Sister-in-law, do you think she really went to chase a thief?"
Aunt Zhang scoffed dismissively, "In broad daylight, where would there be so many thieves? I could tell she was lying the moment I saw her. She's probably up to something shady going around in those alleyways!"
"Look at her, she does nothing all day, but dresses up in a flashy and flamboyant way. She's definitely not an easy woman to deal with."
The younger sister-in-law wholeheartedly agreed with what Sister-in-law Zhang said, nodding vigorously.
"It's a pity about Brother Zhang next door. He's such an honest and kind man, how could he marry such a woman? Do you think we should remind Brother Li?"
How do I send a reminder?
The aunt and her sister-in-law walked home, discussing Ma Yulian's affairs.
Downstairs, people were still chatting in small groups.
Seeing the two of them return from outside, still discussing something intensely, I couldn't help but smile and ask.
"What are you two, sister-in-law, talking about? Are you gossiping about someone's family again?"
"No way! I just ran into Sister Yulian coming out of a small alley on my way home. When I asked her, she said she'd been robbed and her bag had been stolen. She disappeared into the alley!"
"We suggested we take her to the police station to report the incident, but she refused, saying there was an emergency at her parents' home, and then she left in a hurry..."
