Chapter 273: So Long As I’m Still His Wife, Any Other Woman Who Pesters My Man Is a Mistress
“You!” screeched the enraged woman, who ultimately suppressed her anger at the last minute.
Chuckling away, Ye Erruo slipped her arms around her husband’s neck as she shot a warning look at the other woman as though she was declaring her sovereignty.
This man is mine!
Qing Ning took a deep breath before she managed a forced smile with great effort. “I hope sis-in-law is magnanimous enough to overlook the inappropriate way I behaved previously. That’s right, Brother Jiangye. You should bring sis-in-law along to our house for dinner tomorrow.”
Ye Erruo played with her hair as she replied airily, “No, thanks. My hubby wants to introduce me to his band of brothers tomorrow, so we won’t be able to make it for dinner at your place.”
The young lady turned grim. “I-Is that so, Brother Jiangye?”
“Yes.”
“You two can join us for a meal the next day then. It’s been a long time since my grandfather last saw you, and I haven’t met Grandpa Lin in a while either.”
Mo Jiangye kneaded his wife’s tender hand as he obediently asked her with a smile, “Do I have your permission to go, wifey?”
She shot him a look. “No.”
“Okay. We won’t go then.”
Qing Ning’s eyes bulged wide in incredulity, as she had never expected the man to listen to his wife so much.
“We’ll be staying in S City for at least a week, so we can’t drop by for a meal at your house.”
“Oh... We can always have a gathering once you return.”
Ye Erruo’s lips twitched in disgust. Can’t she discern the underlying meaning of my words? Very well. I’ll make things clear for her once and for all.
“I have no desire to dine at your place.”
Her curt reply made the other woman grit her teeth in anger as she flashed them a stiff, embarrassed smile. “O-Oh, okay. Brother Jiangye, you—”
“I go wherever she goes.”
“B-But grandpa wants to meet you badly!” she cried out, looking aggrieved.
Ye Erruo snuggled in her husband’s arms. “Get your grandfather to meet Mo Jiangye then. I’ll set up a gathering and send a car to fetch your grandfather for a meal. You, on the other hand, need not come.”
Qing Ning almost flared up at her rival’s provocation right there and then despite her good upbringing.
“Sis-in-law, I know we got some bad blood between us over what happened previously, but there’s surely no need for you to be so petty as to hold a grudge against me, right? I’m Brother Jiangye’s childhood friend. We grew up playing together. What’s the big deal about me having a meal with him on the rare occasion that I’m back in the country?”
A stern look appeared on Mo Jiangye’s face. However, just as he was about to speak, his wife spat out, “I’ve always been a narrow-minded person who easily holds a grudge over the most trivial things. The idea of you having a meal with my man makes me jealous and upset. If I get upset, my husband will naturally not attend your dinner.”
The man was on cloud nine when he heard that his wife got jealous of him having a meal with another woman. As his heart soared, there was an increasingly wide beam on his face.
Out of curiosity and burning desire to see just how long the other woman would rein in her anger before she finally exposed her hypocritical side to the man, Ye Erruo went on provoking her.
“To my knowledge, you didn’t actually grow up with him and he never asked you to come around to play, so why are you still pestering him by pretending to be his childhood friend? Isn’t that right, hubby?”
He gave her another peck on the cheek. “That’s right.”
“You’re going overboard, Ye Erruo. I only want to have a meal with Brother Jiangye. Why are you so agitated?”
A smirk hung on her face as she studied the young lady before her. I’ve already made things very clear to her, yet she insists on pestering my man? Ha! I’ll deal with her the way one should deal with a mistress then!
“So long as I’m still his wife, any other woman who pesters my man is considered a hussy. Any idea what the word ‘hussy’ means?”
Mo Jiangye asked, “What does it mean, wifey?”
“A mistress bent on destroying my marriage.”
