The kids have become quite picky eaters lately; they can almost taste anything as soon as they put a food in their mouth.
"Dad, the food tastes much better this time than before."
"But Mom's cooking is still the best."
Li Hanting's brow twitched; he was happier than anyone else to have his wife praised.
"Ah Ting".
The man remained silent. Su Jingjing was afraid that he was upset, so she tugged at his sleeve and called out to him.
"Then Dad will try to improve next time."
Li Hanting raised an eyebrow and said.
The agonizing dinner is finally over.
The children were watching TV, while Su Jingjing sat absentmindedly in her chair, her eyes occasionally drifting to Ah Ting's busy figure.
She wanted to explain what happened this morning to Ah Ting, but she couldn't find an opportunity.
Li Hanting wasn't unaware of his wife's gaze, but he didn't yet know how to respond.
After clearing away the dishes, he came to his wife and said, "I have some things to take care of at the office. I'll be back later."
Su Jingjing was dumbfounded; A Ting was avoiding her.
She took the man's hand, her tone slightly aggrieved, "Ah Ting, I have something I want to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Li Hanting stopped in his tracks.
Should his wife explain this to him?
With the children around, Su Jingjing didn't want to reveal too much, so she whispered, "I'll explain to you later, please don't be angry."
Li Hanting turned around, wanting to ask in return, "Have you ever cared about me?"
The two fell silent for a while until the two children went to bed, at which point Su Jingjing asked for a hug.
This was the first time Li Hanting had seen such a wonderful wife, and he simply couldn't refuse her request.
He gently pulled her into his arms, but his hands gradually tightened, trying to embed his little wife into his embrace.
He muttered to himself, "What am I supposed to do with you?"
Su Jingjing was startled, and felt inexplicably sad.
Her Ah Ting should be full of vigor and ambition.
She stepped back slightly, looked directly into the man's eyes, and got straight to the point, "Ah Ting, did Ge Hong say anything to you today?"
Ah Ting remained silent, and Su Jingjing panicked, "Don't believe everything she says, things aren't as she sees them."
"What happened?"
Li Hanting calmly retorted, not wanting to be cold to his wife, as that would only push her further away.
But whenever he thinks about his wife laughing and talking with other men, he can't help but feel jealous.
He admitted that he was stingy, and that he also wanted his wife to only have him in her heart.
Seeing Ah Ting's cold face, Su Jingjing dared not hide it any longer and told him the whole story.
Pouting, she said, "Ah Ting, I just wanted to rip him off, that's all."
But Ah Ting still had the same expression. Su Jingjing felt extremely wronged, and tears gradually welled up in the corners of her eyes. She lowered her head and apologized, "I'm sorry."
Slowly, she began to sob, tears streaming down her face.
Li Hanting immediately lost all his temper and quickly lifted his wife's face. Unsurprisingly, her beautiful face was covered with tears, and he felt extremely distressed.
Gently wipe away her tears, "I'm not angry, I'm just jealous."
The more he wiped away her tears, the more they flowed. He couldn't bear to see his wife cry, so Li Hanting lowered his pride and said, "Don't cry, okay? Or you can hit me."
Su Jingjing burst into laughter through her tears, "Are you really not angry?"
"Yes, I admit I was thinking too much at noon, which is why I didn't go home for lunch. I apologize for that."
Now that things have come to this point, Li Hanting decided to be frank with his wife.
He frowned, his eyes fixed on his young wife's pretty face, and said solemnly, "Wife, aren't you going to tell me about that man?"
Su Jingjing played with A Ting's fingers, nodded, and told him everything she knew, bit by bit.
Li Hanting's brows gradually relaxed.
His wife is still his alone.
Is he bothering you?
By repeatedly creating these chance encounters, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the other party had ulterior motives.
"Yes, you don't need to worry, he's no match for me."
This time, she tricked the scumbag, finally getting revenge for the original owner.
"Honey, I don't want him to keep bothering you."
If he could, he wished this man would disappear from Huaicheng.
After much hesitation, Su Jingjing told Wang Hui about the time he had asked her out.
Li Hanting's face darkened again. "Are you going?"
Su Jingjing was lost in thought and didn't notice the change in A Ting's expression.
"I want to go."
She wanted to see what this scumbag was up to and get rid of him completely in one fell swoop.
Jinju might even get involved.
Su Jingjing then noticed that the temperature around her seemed to have dropped a little. It turned out that A Ting had misunderstood again.
"Ah Ting, don't misunderstand, of course I don't really want to go out with him."
She wrapped her arms around the man's neck, leaned close to his lips, and said, "Why don't we go together?"
Li Hanting then regained his composure, "What do you mean?"
“He must have had ulterior motives for meeting me. I want to know his purpose, otherwise I’ll never feel at ease keeping this bomb in my heart.”
Li Hanting became worried at this moment, "Wife, I'll go with you."
As long as his young wife is willing to tell him, he is willing to believe her.
Holding his wife's shoulders, he said, word by word, "Honey, from now on, if anything happens, just tell me directly, okay? Didn't we agree that we can't have secrets?"
Su Jingjing felt guilty; she had indeed done something wrong.
"Okay, I promise you."
"Then you have to promise me that you won't sulk alone. If anything happens, you can come back and ask me."
Li Hanting hummed in agreement. Seeing his wife's pouting lips, he seemed to be bewitched and lowered his head to kiss her.
But her mouth was covered. "No, I'm going to take a shower."
Su Jingjing jumped up immediately. She knew all too well what Ah Ting was looking at at that moment. If they started kissing, it would never end tonight.
Before Li Hanting could react, his wife had already run into the bathroom.
Left with no other choice, he went to the door and reminded her, "Wife, be careful not to touch your hands."
Su Jingjing smiled silently and replied to the door, "I understand."
Li Hanting chuckled to himself. One of them was taking a shower inside, while the other leaned against the door frame, waiting quietly.
Until a small figure appeared in the living room.
"Dad, what are you laughing at?"
Li Cheng'an came out to get water for his sister and saw his father there, grinning foolishly.
Li Hanting instantly stopped smiling, his expression hardening, and he regained his usual coldness.
She coldly retorted to her son, "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"
Li Cheng'an almost thought he was seeing things because his father's expression changed so quickly.
"I came out to get water for my sister."
Li Hanting walked to the table, poured a glass of warm water, and handed it to his son.
"It's getting late, go to sleep."
Li Cheng'an held the cup. "Okay, goodnight, Dad."
"good evening."
