The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Dongfang Yu had just entered the living room when he heard her resolute words.

His eyes instantly flashed a hint of gloom!

He Meilian was unsure of how to react when she saw him, “Yuyu is home.”

Hai Xiaotang turned her head abruptly to find herself meeting his cold, dark gaze.

Dongfang Yu asked indifferently, “Why did you ask me to come back?”

He Meilian stood up and laughed, “No particular reason…”

“If there’s nothing, I’ll leave first!” Dongfang Yu turned around as if he found the sight of Hai Xiaotang repugnant.

He Meilian hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, “You’re already here, let’s have dinner together. After dinner, you can leave. It’s rare that our family has a chance to gather.”

Dongfang Yu’s tone was still indifferent, “I’ve already eaten, you carry on.”

“You should still eat a little bit more. Come on, let’s go for dinner.” Meilian turned to Xiaotang with a smile, “Xiaotang, let’s go, let’s have dinner.”

Hai Xiaotang shook her head, apologizing, “I won’t eat, I have some stuff to do. I’ll go first.”

“No one wants to eat?”

” Yes!” Dongfang Yu and Hai Xiaotang spoke in unison. Even the simplest of minds could tell—they just didn’t want to eat together.

Dongfang Zujie couldn’t stand it any longer, he stood up with authority and said: “This is your mother’s kindness, everyone go and have dinner!”

The most authoritative figure in the house had spoken; no one dared to resist.

The dining table was laden with a sumptuous array of dishes.

Nevertheless, Hai Xiaotang found no taste in any of it.

Sitting opposite her was Dongfang Yu. He was elegantly and silently eating, completely ignoring her presence.

Hai Xiaotang could feel his cold demeanor—he didn’t want to face her at all.

Actually, neither did she!

After eating a small bowl of food quickly, Hai Xiaotang put down her chopsticks, apologized with a smile, “Dad, Mom, enjoy your meal. I’m done eating. I have some stuff to do, so I’m leaving first.”

“Eat a little more.” He Meilian urged her.

A wave of emotion swept through Hai Xiaotang.

With such a wonderful mother-in-law, she felt extremely blessed. Yet her feelings for Dongfang Yu had completely withered away.

“Thankyou, mom, but I’m full. It’s getting late, so I’ll leave first.” Hai Xiaotang stood up to leave.

He Meilian quickly said, “Yuyu, go and see Xiaotang off. You can go back together.”

“There’s no need, I drove here, and now…” Hai Xiaotang was about to say she had moved out and was living in her own house when suddenly, a servant interrupted her.

“Young mistress, it seems that your car is broken. Just now, it made a loud noise; it appears that the tire has burst.”

Hai Xiaotang was stunned, “Broken?”

How could it suddenly be broken?

The servant nodded affirmatively, “It’s broken, I don’t know what happened, but the tire suddenly burst!”

Hai Xiaotang: “…”

However, Dongfang Zujie and Dongfang Yu both turned to look at He Meilian.

The latter blinked innocently, surprised, “It actually broke, how could such a thing happen. But don’t worry, Xiaotang, mom can get someone to fix it tonight. You and Yuyu should go back together. Yuyu, you’re so busy, it’s time to go home.”

“Let the driver take her!” Dongfang Yu said, without lifting his head.

He Meilian glared at him, “Your wife isn’t someone who can just be sent off by others. Go, or else both of you stay here tonight! Besides, your marital home is cleaned every day and it’s perfectly livable!”

Hai Xiaotang quickly declined, “Mom, I don’t need a lift, I’ll take a cab. Dad, mom, I’m leaving now, goodbye!”
