Chapter 12 I won't tolerate your cowardice



Shi Qi stood up with a bang, his eyes red, and raised his hand to snatch the chopsticks from Gu Chijin's hand.

Eat shit!

Don’t eat any of it.

She couldn't stand this humiliation!

Men are indeed stumbling blocks on the road to success. They are useless and only annoy people!

Gu Chijin straightened his back stiffly, staring at Shi Qi, whose face was red with anger, not knowing how to start.

He...this time...really didn't mean it.

He just couldn't stand his own declining aesthetic.

But his behavior just now seemed like he was really throwing a tantrum.

Clenching his empty fists in frustration, Gu Chijin took full responsibility, coughed, and apologized with a dry throat:

"I'm sorry, I'm not mad at you, I'm just mad at myself."

Shi Qi would not listen to his nonsense.

Angry at yourself?

Being angry at himself, could he look at her with a sullen face, as if he wanted to eat her?

If the man just now didn't mean to scold her, she would cut off her head and use it as a stool for him to sit on!

After quickly putting the porridge and pumpkin pie into the kitchen, Shi Qi refused to communicate.

He brought out the same style that Gu Chijin had used to ignore the original owner.

Gu Chijin sat on the bench, watching Shi Qi coming in and out helplessly, and cleaned the table in two or three strokes.

Seeing the woman picking up the pumpkin pie and about to leave, Gu Chijin inexplicably felt that if he didn't speak up now, it would be difficult in the future.

Not knowing where this absurd idea came from, Gu Chijin followed his intuition and asked her, "Where are you going?"

Shi Qi gave him a forced smile.

"Captain Gu, do I have to report before I go out now?

Do you want me to write you a letter requesting leave and ask you to approve it?"

Shi Qi was so angry that his words were full of thorns, which made Gu Chijin speechless.

Before leaving with the pumpkin pie and fabric, Shiqi said:

“As long as we remain married, I will come home and cook for you.

But we should not eat together, so as not to bring bad luck to each other.

Also, I hope your leg heals quickly and we can get a divorce soon, so we can all escape this misery and no one will be burdened."

The person disappeared at the door and Gu Chijin didn't even come back to his senses.

Sitting there, he stared at the empty doorway with a tightness in his chest, and the words Shi Qi said kept echoing in his mind.

Shi Qi was right, their marriage was wrong from the beginning.

At the beginning, the Shi family forced the marriage.

His family compromised.

Grandpa is seriously ill and wants to see him get married.

One link after another, it has become the current deadlock.

Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for is that after he married Shi Qi, his grandfather's health gradually improved.

He went from resisting to accepting Shi Qi, and he felt guilty at first, which was why he sent back 20 yuan in allowance every month.

But looking at this woman, she changed from being enthusiastic and timid at the beginning to being cold later.

Then he used his allowance to eat and drink lavishly and caused trouble everywhere.

The guilt in Gu Chijin's heart disappeared with her every move and was gradually replaced by disgust.

After hearing what Shi Qi said today, Gu Chijin suddenly woke up.

Perhaps, he was also wrong in this marriage.

The worst thing he did was not to stick to his bottom line and agree to marry her home.

A marriage without love is doomed to fail.

Invisibly hurting two people.

At most in a month, he will be able to walk slowly.

Just go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with her to divorce her and give her some compensation. That would be the most reasonable thing to do.

The angry new-age woman Shi Qi strode towards Bai Xiaohua's house, carrying pumpkin pie and cloth.

Instead of being angry with Gu Chijin, you might as well find a way to make money.

Making money is the big thing.

When she earns enough money, she will buy a house and move out.

Stand up straight and you don't have to worry about other people's feelings.

Tomorrow she will start looking for work!

Jiang Chen went to the army early in the morning, leaving only Bai Xiaohua and his five-year-old son Jiang Haoyun at home.

Hearing Shi Qi shouting outside the door, Bai Xiaohua hurried to open it.

Today is not as hot as yesterday, so Bai Xiaohua originally planned to take his son to the city for a walk and buy him some new clothes.

Now that Shi Qi is here, it’s not easy for him to leave.

After bringing Shi Qi in, Bai Xiaohua felt embarrassed when he saw her bringing something again.

In this compound, it was always others who ate her food. Bai Xiaohua was not used to being fed by Shi Qi for two days.

"Look at you, why do you bring things here every day? If you continue like this, I won't let you in tomorrow."

Bai Xiaohua put the pumpkin cakes on a flower plate and placed them on the table. He gave one to Jiang Haoyun, told him to go play in the yard, and went to the kitchen to wash the grapes.

Putting the grapes on the table and inviting Shi Qi to eat, Bai Xiaohua glanced at the pieces of cloth Shi Qi brought and asked with a smile:

"Sister Shi plans to make clothes for Captain Gu?"

Shi Qi took out the flowered and blue cloths and said, "He'll do his last. I'll do mine first to practice."

Modern sewing machines are different from those from the 1980s.

Shi Qi didn't want to see someone else wear the failed item, so he decided to make a skirt for himself first.

After I become familiar with the sewing machine here, I will make it for others.

No matter what she loses, she must not lose her professional ability as a designer.

His eyes stayed on Bai Xiaohua for a few seconds, then Shi Qi stood up, picked up the floral cloth and gestured on her body, his eyes curved:

"Sister-in-law has such a great figure, I'll make you a long skirt, I guarantee you'll like it."

What Shi Qi said was true. Bai Xiaohua was tall and had fair skin, looking like a clothes hanger.

With her slender and well-proportioned measurements, a seven-point dress can look very stylish on her.

If she really wore a skirt, she would be a living signboard.

Bai Xiaohua exclaimed, and waved his hands hurriedly:

"I don't want it, I don't want it, you can just make it yourself. If I want clothes, I can just go to the city and buy them, no need to trouble you."

Others just lent her a sewing machine. If she really asked Shi Qi to make clothes for her, wouldn't that be an excuse for her to exploit labor?

What would it sound like if this got out?

Shi Qi knew what Bai Xiaohua was worried about, and when he saw her reject him so quickly and hastily, he laughed:

"Don't be anxious, sister-in-law. Let me make a skirt first, and then you can take a look at the pattern.

If you really don’t like me, it’s not too late to reject me then.”

Seeing Shi Qi so confident, Bai Xiaohua really had some expectations: "Okay, you make it first. If the skirt you make is really beautiful, sister-in-law will pay you to make it custom-made."

Shi Qi's eyes lit up, and he thought of a great idea. He took Bai Xiaohua's hand affectionately:

"My sister-in-law and I are not talking about money. If she is really satisfied, she can promote me and introduce a few clients."

Bai Xiaohua's face changed when he heard this, thinking that Shi Qi was in trouble, otherwise why would he talk about clients for no reason?

"Sister Shi, are you and Captain Gu really short of money lately?"

Thinking of Shi Qi's parents, Bai Xiaohua felt that he had found the reason and was furious:

"Is it your mother and the others who are coming to you and Captain Gu again to force you to give us money?

Don't be afraid. If they dare to come again, we will call the police. The sisters-in-law in our yard can all testify for you."

Bai Xiaohua defended himself like this, and it would be a lie for Shi Qi to say he wasn't moved.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, but this time it's not about my mother's side. I want to make money myself."

Bai Xiaohua looked at Shi Qi hesitantly: "Did you have a fight with Captain Gu?"
