Chapter 31 Melodramatic Story
Chapter 31 Melodramatic Story
"What's with that expression? Did I make you uncomfortable just now?" Long Chen stared at Li Yueyue.
Li Yueyue's face turned even redder as she couldn't help but whisper, "Brother-in-law, can you not speak in such a strange tone? it's as if we did something shameful just now."
"You want to do something shameful with me? No way, did I hear it right?" Long Chen teased.
"I'll beat you to death, you dirty brother-in-law. How dare you flirt with your sister-in-law," Li Yueyue hit Long Chen's chest a few times, but it was just like scratching an itch.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Go and do your work," Long Chen said with a smile.
"I'm not going anywhere. My father told me to come and accompany you. I'll help you with anything you need," Li Yueyue pouted.
"Anything? Will you satisfy me in what your cousin can't?" Long Chen smiled.
"Huh? My cousin didn't satisfy you?" Li Yueyue was dumbfounded.
"This..." Long Chen, on the other hand, was dazed for a minute.
He had been married to Li Yuechan for a year, but he had never kissed her even once.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little melancholic.
"What's my cousin doing? She should divorce you and let you go if she doesn't love you. What's with her being coy like this?" Li Yueyue sighed.
"She's probably afraid of something?" Long Chen didn't know what to say to help save Li Yuechan's image.
"Brother-in-law, to be honest, have you ever regretted it?" Li Yueyue asked curiously.
"No, I haven't," Long Chen said decisively, "Although she doesn't love me, I've always fantasized that one day, she'll really care about my happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. It's difficult, but I'm happy though it's painful."
"It seems that you're a very affectionate person. Have you ever thought that if one day she says that she wants to divorce you, won't you be so upset that you'd want to die?" Li Yueyue looked at Long Chen.
Upon closer inspection, she found that Long Chen was surprisingly good-looking. He was the type that didn't stand out at first glance, but the more one looked at him, the more attractive he became.
"If she really wants a divorce, I can't do anything about it," Long Chen said.
"To be honest, you have to think more about yourself. If my cousin really loved you, she would have accepted you a long time ago. It's been so long, but she still doesn't let you touch her. This already shows a lot of things. Be careful and don't let yourself fall too deep," Li Yueyue explained to Long Chen.
Long Chen smiled, "You're talking in a way that's so full of yourself. Have you ever been in love?"
"Of course, but don't get me wrong. At most, we just held hands. We broke up before we went any further. Hehe, I dumped him," Li Yueyue blinked her eyes.
"Scumbag."
"No, I'm not," Li Yueyue said, "I noticed his weird behavior. Then, I happened to see him kissing another girl on the school field. However, I didn't expose him and just told him that I'd like to break up with him. I'm glad that I didn't kiss him or anything like that. Otherwise, I would have regretted it to death."
"You're smart. "
"Of course. Brother-in-law, what about you? Have you ever been in a relationship before you married my cousin?" Li Yueyue asked.
"I did, but there's nothing much to say," Long Chen said.
Before he married Li Yuechan, he had been in a relationship.
That was Long Chen's first love, but in the end, the girl still chose a rich second-generation heir for a better future.
Such stories were everywhere. They were melodramatic, but they were real.
Now that Long Chen thought about it, he didn't hate that girl. He only hated himself for being a good-for-nothing.
"Brother-in-law, just tell me. I want to hear it," Li Yueyue said to Long Chen.
"No," Long Chen shook his head and said, "It's not a good story anyway."
"Geez, just say it," Li Yueyue was not going to let Long Chen go so easily.
Long Chen had no choice but to tell Li Yueyue the story of his first love.
She kept frowning as she listened, "That girl is a little too cruel. Then, did she return you the necklace you bought for her after working and saving for three months?"
"Return my ass," Long Chen smiled bitterly.
"Haha, if you see her in the future, get the necklace back. Don't give her a chance to take advantage of you. Piss her off," Li Yueyue said with a smile.
"First I'll have to get the chance to meet her. She's probably a mother now and is living a life of luxury. She won't see someone like me," Long Chen said with a smile.
"What if she regrets it and tells you that the person she loves has always been you and that she wants to spend the rest of her life with you with her thousand million assets? What would you do?"
"Stop, stop, stop. There's no such melodramatic plot. Don't disturb me from reading," Long Chen picked up a martial arts manual that looked like a knockoff.
Long Chen suspected that Li Shiyin had gotten it from a roadside stall, but he didn't mind studying it.
"Fine, I won't disturb you. I'll cook you a bowl of noodles," Li Yueyue turned around and walked out the door.
In the next few days, Long Chen devoted himself to studying all kinds of medical skills and martial arts. He would practice from time to time and felt that he had made great progress.
The relationship between Li Yueyue and Long Chen had also improved rapidly. She was now willing to be his lab rat to experience his acupuncture skills.
On the fifth day, Li Yuechan came.
As she stepped into the room, she happened to see Long Chen holding Li Yueyue's fair hand and studying the changes in her after the acupuncture.
Li Yueyue looked at Long Chen's serious face with her bright eyes.
However, Li Yuechan did not know the truth. When she saw this scene, she gritted her teeth in anger and said with killing intent, "Long Chen, what are you doing?"
"Ah," Li Yueyue was shocked and quickly retracted her hand.
Long Chen also straightened his body and quickly calmed down, "I've just performed acupuncture on Yueyue and I'm observing her changes. If there's no problem, I'm going to start saving grandfather."
"Is that so?" Li Yuechan frowned.
She was carrying two bags in her hands and looked suspicious.
Just now, Li Yueyue and Long Chen were standing too close to each other. They were so close that Li Yuechan felt like a green hat was about to be on her head.
"Sister, if you don't believe me, you can see for yourself. The silver needles have just been removed and are still here," Li Yueyue carefully pointed at the box of silver needles.
"Li Yueyue, what are you doing here?" Li Yuechan asked.
"My dad said that brother-in-law would be very bored taking care of grandpa alone. He's a man, so he must be quite careless in taking care of people. Thus, dad asked me to come over and help," Li Yueyue said.
"You're just playing along with him," Li Yuechan glared at Li Yueyue before turning to Long Chen. She said angrily, "Long Chen, didn't you say you would ask your Master to save grandpa? You said that but you're going to do it yourself?"
"Yuechan, I can do it. Can you trust me this once?" Long Chen stared at Li Yuechan.
"No," Li Yuechan shook her head firmly, "This isn't child's play. If you're not careful, you'll hurt grandpa. I will never agree to this."
"Sister, brother-in-law can really do it. I believe in his medical skills," Li Yueyue said in a hurry.
After a few days of interaction and personal experience, Li Yueyue had complete trust in Long Chen.
