Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 238 - 239: The Thing Done in Love

Shi Mei glanced at the window, unaware that the car had already entered the highway, and only then did she close her mouth.

Being abandoned on the highway was no joke.

Shi Mei sat properly, her gaze leaping at the sight of directional signs outside the window.

She knew this highway all too well.

This was... toward Shi Wuzhou’s direction.

Shi Mei, fully aware, retracted her gaze and feigned ignorance, "Mr. Shi, where are you taking me?"

"You guess."

"I can’t guess," Shi Mei giggled covering her mouth, her voice coquettishly sweet, "If I knew what you were thinking, I would have already knocked you over~"

"Heh," Shi Lingyan looked away, gazing out the car window, "Keep talking dirty, and no one will send you back later."

It was hard to catch a taxi around Shi Wuzhou, very secluded.

It would take a full half-hour just to walk from Shi Wuzhou to the roadside.

Shi Mei’s eyes twinkled slightly as she lowered her gaze and spoke softly, "Do you know where I live, planning to send me home?" she said, inching closer to Shi Lingyan, "It’s inconvenient at my place, I could go to your place..."

Shi Lingyan, without turning his head, smacked away her misbehaving hand.

Shi Mei pouted, taking back her hand, and whimpered in a coquettish tone, "Since you don’t want to do the deed with me, what are you bringing me to this godforsaken place for?"

Yun Du, unable to bear it any longer, blurted out with a face turning red, "Can’t you think of something healthy?"

"It’s very healthy. More exercise is beneficial for physical and mental health. You won’t find a girlfriend with such old-fashioned thoughts. You need to be more open-minded, lively, ah. Look at Mr. Shi from your family, he seems upright, but gets naughty secretly to the point where even he scares himself."

Yun Du was at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, Shi Lingyan glanced over with a deep and impenetrable expression, it was impossible to understand what he was actually thinking.

Sitting in the car, Shi Mei’s phone suddenly rang in her pocket.

The ringtone was that of a classic arcade game known worldwide, almost every phone had such an unpleasant sound.

Shi Mei had changed to a special phone case just to dare to carry it with her, but she didn’t dare to answer it in front of Shi Lingyan and immediately turned off the phone, then stuffed it back in her pocket.

Shi Lingyan watched this and suddenly said, "You seem to have a lot of secrets."

"Who doesn’t have secrets?" Shi Mei responded frankly, "You have quite a few yourself."

"So, who exactly are you?" Shi Lingyan’s gaze seemed to be on her, but actually, his focus was elsewhere, "The false identity you’ve created is indeed clever."

Shi Mei’s heart skipped a beat, "What false identity? I don’t understand what you’re saying."

"Niu Dahong, 27 years old, born in the deep mountains, grown up to face emotional setbacks and her father’s debts, worked alone in Kang City, and got acid thrown on her face by her ex-boyfriend while resting in the employee dormitory..." Shi Lingyan softly recited the false backstory he’d found out long ago, "It’s indeed seamless, but Niu Dahong, at 21, got her revenge on her ex-boyfriend and accidentally left him disabled. She was convicted of intentional injury and sentenced to five years in prison. You, on the other hand, show no signs of just being released from prison, nor any traits of a mountain villager."

"That means I’m exceptionally talented, badass!" Shi Mei declared confidently, "What makes you think this identity is fake? My dad’s surname is Niu, and my mom’s surname is Hong. They named me Niu Dahong to represent their strong bond. What’s wrong with that?"

"What about your parents afterward?"

"Uh, back in my hometown."

Shi Lingyan laughed, "Then who died last year in the hospital from cancer?"

Shi Mei: "..."
