How I Tamed My Wolfish Husband Back in 80s-Chapter 315 - 317: I’m Back_1
Chapter 315: Chapter 317: I’m Back_1
Li Shengcai and his two companions were locked up separately overnight and weren’t released until the next morning.
"Undutiful daughter!"
As he walked out of the main gate, Li Shengcai’s legs trembled as he cursed.
To think that she would arrange for someone to arrest her own father and make him squat in a cell; he wouldn’t let her off without a lesson!
Dong Lamei was equally weak in the knees, covered in cold sweat all over her body.
Li Jinhua’s face was pale, Li Qiao’s capabilities were too great, and it would be even harder to trip her up in the future. If they couldn’t seize the opportunity to make Li Qiao give in this time, it would be even more difficult next time. "The third sister should be at work, right? Let’s wait for her and see where she goes after getting off work. I heard her house is very big, big enough for ten people to live in."
In fact, all of this was her speculation, based on her confidence in Qin Jin, and it was not just at one address; people in the village said his residency had been transferred to Beijing.
Could it really be because of Li Qiao’s application? Impossible.
The transfer must be because of buying a house; if he could buy a house in Beijing, there’s no reason he wouldn’t buy one in a small county town.
Qin Jin was incredible!
In his past life, he never bought a house, and he kept dealing in antiques under the table, until Li Qiao sent him away.
And that Li Jianguo, she finally remembered his previous life recently, he must have been around fifty when he left his hometown to lease land for farming, becoming a major planter with an annual income of millions.
Because he had no partner or progeny, he bought houses and cars for his nephews.
Ah!
Why didn’t she remember his story earlier?
Both his past and present lives were clean; he was a decent man who conducted himself with integrity. Being his woman would have been better than being Qin Jin’s.
It was so unfair of fate!
To have her always just miss out on rich people.
Dong Lamei harbored the same thought; they had made their enquiries clear, Loser Qin hadn’t come back with Li Qiao, which made it a good opportunity to make demands on Li Qiao. If they missed this chance, there might not be another. "What do you say, Li?"
"What can I say? I’m hungry. Let’s grab something to eat first," Li Shengcai said.
.....
After the family of three finished their meal, they returned to find a secluded place to stake out Li Qiao.
At five in the afternoon, the unit office closed, and a half-hour later, the main gate was locked.
Li Jinhua wondered, "Why can’t we see the third sister?"
"You ask me, but who do I ask?" Li Shengcai had been in the sun all day, and on top of not sleeping well the night before, his head was heavy and his feet light; he was full of resentment.
Dong Lamei couldn’t wait any longer either. "Let’s..." Go.
She didn’t finish her sentence as Li Qiao came out of her office, pushing a bicycle.
The three of them immediately followed.
They saw Li Qiao turn into a spacious alley with their own eyes; by the time they reached the mouth of the alley, there was no sign of anyone.
"Let’s go home, I don’t believe she won’t return to Feng Family Village," Li Shengcai stamped his foot.
In the days to come, he would guard the Qin family’s doorway every day, not believing that she wouldn’t appear.
Dong Lamei and Li Jinhua felt discontented but helpless.
....
After the turmoil had passed, Li Qiao immersed herself in work, and before she knew it, it was mid-August.
Li Qiao cleared all the case files from her desk.
She received a nickname, Old Monster.
And she was quite upset by it.
She was in the prime of youth, at the peak of her beauty; how could she be associated with an Old Monster?! That day after work, she went back home as usual.
The front gate was open, the kitchen chimney was puffing smoke; she parked her bike and tentatively called, "Jin?"
Qin Jin poked half his body out from the kitchen, wearing an apron that couldn’t hide his handsomeness. A smile spread across his face, "Finished work, huh? I cooked the crucian carp and tofu soup you love."
Li Qiao was pleasantly surprised, "When did you come back? Is your residency sorted out?"
"I’ve just returned not long ago. The household registration was taken care of early, and I’ve also received a grain coupon. Right before coming here, I just picked up 30 jin of grain, and grandma was overjoyed,"
Li Qiao was equally happy.
Qin Jin whispered, "Did you miss me?"
"Of course, people have been missing you so much that they couldn’t sleep at night," Li Qiao expressed frankly, then asked about his study progress, if he had memorized any words, and how his driving lessons were going.
Qin Jin replied one by one, "I’ve finished all the test papers, they’re on the bedroom desk. I’ve been memorizing words every day, and Professor Xue even gifted me two spoken language tapes. I can drive now, haven’t taken the test yet, but the written test date is out, early September, just when you start school."
"How’s the business going?" Li Qiao asked further.
Qin Jin: "Pretty good, basically in a stable state. Those dark fabrics have all been sold out. I got a new batch of nice fabrics, and had grandma make you several outfits. Want to try them now?"
"Sure." Li Qiao went inside and her gaze fell on a big bag placed on the living room chair.
Opening it, red, white, yellow, floral...
A variety of colors, many styles.
Each one was exactly to Li Qiao’s aesthetic taste. She picked up a little white dress, a spaghetti strap design, the fabric soft -- this must be a nightgown, right? After trying it on and standing in front of the mirror, it fit her perfectly, the hem fell to her calves, swaying gracefully as she walked.
She was very satisfied. She casually let her hair down and appeared at the kitchen doorway, smiling, "Jin, does it look good?"
Qin Jin’s gaze darkened.
Her clothes were as white as snow, her hair black as ink.
Smooth and luxurious.
His wife was truly beautiful.
The next second, he took two steps in three strides to the doorway to look outside. Thankfully, the main door was closed. No one had caught a glimpse, so he hadn’t lost anything. "That’s for sleeping in, what are you doing wearing it now? You don’t want me to cook properly, is that it?"
Li Qiao tousled her hair, casting him a flirtatious glance.
The hand that Qin Jin held the spatula with tightened, his voice strained, "You just wait!"
Li Qiao, chuckling, didn’t dare to push too far and quickly changed back into more conservative clothing.
And picked up the other dresses to compare in front of the full-length mirror.
There was also a black dress, the same style as the white one she had tried.
The black seemed even more seductive.
Wouldn’t she completely captivate him if she wore the black one next time?
She thought silently.
....
When the meal was ready, Li Qiao took a bottle of wine out from the cabinet in the living room.
"Where did this come from?" Qin Jin was surprised; red wine wasn’t easy to find, was it?
Li Qiao: "Director Xun’s wife made the grape wine herself, she insisted on giving us a bottle."
"Homemade? Has it gone through desensitization? Don’t get poisoned," Qin Jin was hesitant to drink it.
Li Qiao: "Don’t worry! Director Xun tested it, it’s drinkable, I’ve seen him drink it myself, and the alcohol content isn’t high, so you won’t get drunk and be unable to perform."
Qin Jin: "..." Who wouldn’t be able to perform? He would show her later!
The grape wine was sweet. Li Qiao had a small glass, and her face immediately blushed.
Qin Jin watched her, her face the perfect oval, with long lashes and big eyes, fingers pale as scallions. He felt like he really wasn’t a good person.
Leaving such a beautiful wife alone for over a month without a care.
"How did you get by when I wasn’t home?" he suddenly asked.
"How else? Just got by. Sometimes I even had to work overtime at night. That damn Director Xun said he wouldn’t make me work overtime at first, but for a while, I worked till past ten every night without overtime pay. I could even deal with that, but you have no idea how creepy the forensic department is at night. One night he called me over to fetch some documents he left in the operating room, and the white cloth covering a body suddenly fell off, almost scared me to death with what was revealed underneath," Li Qiao rambled on in complaint.
Qin Jin was both distressed and amused, "I didn’t mean that. I meant in that regard, didn’t you miss it?" He couldn’t sleep whenever he went a while without being with her.
Li Qiao instantly understood that he was referring to their sex life. "If I missed it, I just held in. Did you expect me to just pick any man?"
Qin Jin: "...."
