Seeing him laughing heartily, Ni Sitian's face turned even redder.
But never mind, I won't argue with him. He must be having a tough time lately, so as his wife, I'll sacrifice a little to cheer him up.
She exhaled, fanned her cheeks with both hands to cool them down a bit, and couldn't help but laugh along with him.
Xu Tingchuan walked into the house from the balcony with a smile. When he got to Ni Sitian, he gradually stopped laughing, leaving a smile in the corner of his eyes.
He placed his hands on Ni Sitian's shoulders and leaned down to whisper in her ear, "Mrs. Xu, you still haven't told me what you've used."
"No, no, I didn't." The heat that had just subsided on Ni Sitian's cheeks returned, and she looked genuinely guilty.
Actually, she really didn't have it; it's just that she dreamt about him, and it was a very impure dream. After having it, when she woke up that morning, she...
"Mrs. Xu, your expression tells me that you must be thinking about something very impure right now." Xu Tingchuan raised an eyebrow and looked into her eyes, his voice full of teasing.
"You're the one who's not pure!" Ni Sitian was stung by his words, angrily brushed his hand away, and fled to the kitchen as if in a panic.
"I know there's still a bitter melon in the kitchen, you don't need to be in such a hurry," Xu Tingchuan called out to Ni Sitian's retreating figure.
Ni Sitian had initially decided to be tolerant and let him make her laugh, but he went further and further astray!
If we don't retaliate, he might take advantage of our kindness!
"You've reminded me, bitter melons are thick, big, and have granules! Yours can retire early right now!" Ni Sitian picked up a small kitchen knife, squinted her eyes, and made a threatening chopping motion at him.
Xu Tingchuan was about to burst out laughing again. He had truly married a treasure. Thinking that he would spend all his days with her, he felt that the future was bright and promising.
Ni Sitian was so embarrassed by the laughter that she wanted to bang her head against the wall. What nonsense had she just spouted? "Thick, big, and with grains"—how could such vulgar and obscene words have come out of her mouth? She was too ashamed to face anyone!
Ni Sitian slammed the glass door to the kitchen shut, turned around and started washing dishes in the sink. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. She simply scooped up a handful of water and patted it on her cheeks to cool down.
After washing the dishes, she slowly walked out of the kitchen. Seeing that Xu Tingchuan was no longer there, she breathed a sigh of relief. If he had continued joking around, she would have exploded on the spot.
Ni Sitian glanced at the wall clock in the living room. It was almost nine o'clock. She still had to wrap up this episode and also transfer money to Ni Qianshan's card.
So she went into the study, turned on the computer, logged into online banking, and checked her bank account. She had received two large deposits last month: one was an advance payment for a script, and the other was two royalties from a previous novel, totaling over 300,000 yuan.
Ni Sitian thought about it and decided not to transfer all the money at once. She estimated that 200,000 yuan would be enough, even including the deposit for priority treatment. She would transfer the rest later if surgery was needed.
She looked down, entered the amount and account number, clicked confirm, and the transfer was successful.
A short while later, I received a text message on my phone.
Ni Sitian sighed softly as she noticed the amount of money missing from her card. The money she had just received was gone in an instant.
However, getting her father treated is the most important thing now. Hopefully, after this experience with illness and high-interest loans, the three of them will be able to work steadily in the future.
