Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 208 - 209: Her Actions Became a Joke

Thinking about this, everyone couldn’t help but cast sympathetic glances at Shi Mei.

Unexpectedly, Shi Lingyan didn’t push her away; instead, he naturally supported her.

Such a gesture turned the surrounding schadenfreude and sympathy into astonishment!

Was this...

Not only did Mr. Shi not push her away with disgust, but he was also... indulgent?

Shi Lingyan looked at the pink rabbit head in front of him, his eyebrows showing helplessness as he touched her head and said, "How could it be broken?"

His voice was gentle, completely different from usual!

The tone, the demeanor, was just like soothing a child?

Those following Shi Lingyan were already dumbfounded, speechless!

Was this person really Mr. Shi?

Clearly, this girl looked somewhat neurotic; when had they ever known Mr. Shi to be so patient?

The crowd was filled with astonished doubt, unable to help but take a few more glances at Shi Mei.

But the more they looked, the more familiar she seemed.

"Hey, isn’t this the same person from the video conference last time?"

Such a remark made everyone’s gaze converge on Shi Mei once more.

"Yes, it really is."

"Wait, what did she just call Mr. Shi?"

"It seemed like... ’husband’?"

"She called him ’brain hubby’, I didn’t catch it right away!"

"So, is she actually the mysterious wife of Mr. Shi?"

...

Shi Mei, completely unaware of the turmoil she caused, pouted her lips with a nearly crying expression and said, "It’s broken, sob sob, look!"

Saying this, Shi Mei once again opened the box she was holding.

Shi Lingyan glanced at it, picked up a piece of broken glass and said, "Glass is indeed easy to break."

A statement that stirred a thousand waves!

"Glass?"

"Wasn’t it supposed to be jade?"

"Oh my god, even the material is different!"

"Wow," Shi Yuanyuan interjected, "Miss Bai, wasn’t this the birthday gift you prepared for Old Lady Shi? You said it was a jade Ruyi, and now it’s changed to glass?"

Bai Yuejie couldn’t believe it, she furrowed her brows and said, "How could that be, it must have been switched by someone..."

"Exactly," Shi Yuanyuan said understandingly, "Glass is so cheap; such color and quality of jade would cost at least a few million, right?"

"Ah," Shi Mei took the piece of glass back from Shi Lingyan’s hand, "Glass, brain hubby, glass can scratch your hand!"

Shi Lingyan’s expression remained indifferent, but his eyes grew colder.

He closed the box and casually handed it to Yun Du behind him, "Check this."

Yun Du: "Yes."

Bai Yuejie was somewhat flustered and said, "Brother Ling Yan..."

"Did you bring the gift I gave you yesterday?" Shi Lingyan spoke as if he hadn’t heard Bai Yuejie’s voice.

Shi Mei’s eyes brightened even more; she nodded her head, immediately dug out a small heart-shaped box from her purse.

Shi Lingyan fondly touched Shi Mei’s head and whispered in her ear, "Remember how to say it?"

Shi Mei immediately sprang up like offering a treasure before Old Lady Shi and cutely shouted, "Grandma, Shi Mei’s little heart!"

Shi Yuanyuan saw Bai Yuejie’s face and snickered, saying, "Mr. Shi is really considerate towards Shi Mei."

Bai Yuejie’s face turned even whiter than before.

It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her heart.

She distinctly noticed that the respectful and flattering looks around her had changed.

There was mockery, pity, sympathy.

Her actions had turned into a... joke.
