Chapter 31 -31: Melodramatic Story
“What’s with that look? Did brother-in-law’s acupuncture make you uncomfortable?”
Long Chen stared at Li Yueyue.
Li Yueyue’s pretty face turned even more flushed.
“Brother-in-law, can you not speak in such a well-behaved tone? It sounds like something indecent just happened.”
Li Yueyue couldn’t help but whisper.
“You want something indecent to happen between us? No way, did I hear that wrong?”
Long Chen teased.
“I’ll kill you, you bad brother-in-law, for flirting with your sister-in-law.”
Li Yueyue reached out and hit Long Chen’s chest a few times, but it was more like tickling.
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing you. Go do your thing,” Long Chen said with a laugh.
“I’m not going anywhere. My dad said to come over and keep you company, to help you with whatever you need,” Li Yueyue pouted.
“Help with everything?” Long Chen laughed, “Your sister can’t satisfy me, can you?”
“Huh?”
Li Yueyue was dumbfounded, “Sister didn’t satisfy you?”
“Well…”
Long Chen was momentarily stunned.
Having been married to Li Yuechan for just over a year, they hadn’t even kissed once.
Thinking about it, Long Chen couldn’t help feeling a bit melancholic.
“Sister really should just divorce you if she doesn’t love you, instead of keeping you hanging like this,” Li Yueyue sighed.
“She’s probably afraid of something?”
Long Chen didn’t know how to defend Li Yuechan.
“Brother-in-law, honestly, do you ever regret it?”
Li Yueyue asked curiously.
“Never,” Long Chen stated decisively, “Though she doesn’t love me, I always fantasize that one day she will genuinely care about my joys and sorrows. It’s hard, but it’s a painful joy.”
“It seems you’re quite a devoted person then. But have you ever thought, if your sister wants a divorce someday, that would really hurt you, wouldn’t it?”
Li Yueyue looked at Long Chen.
Upon closer observation, Li Yueyue realized that Long Chen was unexpectedly handsome, the type that doesn’t stand out at first but grows on you the more you look.
“If she really wants a divorce, there’s nothing I can do,” Long Chen said.
“You should really think more about yourself. If your sister was going to truly accept you, she would have done so by now. It’s been so long, and she still doesn’t let you touch her. That says a lot. Be careful not to get in too deep,”
Li Yueyue seriously analyzed for Long Chen.
Long Chen smiled and said, “You talk as if you know it all. Have you been in love?”
“Of course I have, but don’t get me wrong. It was just holding hands, nothing more before we broke up, hehe, I was the one who dumped him.”
Li Yueyue blinked her beautiful eyes.
“Such a heartbreaker.”
“That’s not true,” Li Yueyue said, “I realized he was acting strangely. Once, I coincidentally saw him kissing another girl at the school playground. I didn’t expose him but just broke up right away. I’m really glad I never kissed him; otherwise, I’d be full of regrets.”
“You’re quite smart.”
“Of course, brother-in-law, what about you? Did you date anyone before marrying my sister?” Li Yueyue asked.
“I did date someone, but it was a mess and not worth mentioning,” Long Chen said.
Before marrying Li Yuechan, he indeed had a relationship.
It was Long Chen’s first real love, but in the end, the girl chose a richer second-generation wealthy man.
Such stories are all too common, melodramatic yet realistic.
Long Chen, reflecting on the past, didn’t hate that girl but only hated himself for being insignificant.
“Brother-in-law, come on, just tell me. I want to hear.”
Li Yueyue pestered Long Chen.
Long Chen shook his head and said, “I won’t say, it’s not pleasant.”
“Oh, come on, just say it.”
Li Yueyue wasn’t about to easily let Long Chen off the hook.
Having no choice from being badgered, Long Chen briefly told Li Yueyue some details.
She listened with furrowed brows: “That girl was a bit too cruel, wasn’t she? What about the necklace you worked for three months to buy for her, did she return it?”
“Not a chance,” Long Chen smiled bitterly.
“Haha, if you ever meet her again, demand the necklace back. Don’t give her the satisfaction, that’ll show her.”
Li Yueyue laughed.
“Well, that would require bumping into her. By now, she’s probably a mother, living a life of luxury, not likely to see someone like me,” Long Chen said with a laugh.
“What if she regrets it and tells you that she has always loved you deeply, and wants to spend the rest of her life with you along with millions in assets? What would you do then?”

“Get out of here, no such cheesy drama. Don’t disturb me while I’m reading.”
Long Chen picked up a Martial Arts Secret Manual that looked quite cheap.
He suspected that Shiyin had someone pick it up off the floor, but Long Chen still didn’t mind studying it a bit.
“Look, I won’t disturb you, I’ll go make you some noodles.”
Li Yueyue turned and walked out the door.
In the following days, Long Chen devoted himself to studying various medical and Martial Arts techniques, occasionally practicing, and felt great improvement.
The relationship between Li Yueyue and Long Chen also rapidly grew; Li Yueyue volunteered to be Long Chen’s experimental guinea pig, experiencing his acupuncture techniques.
On the fifth day, Li Yuechan arrived.
As she stepped into the house, she just happened to see Long Chen holding Li Yueyue’s pale hand, studying the effects after applying acupuncture.
Li Yueyue looked earnestly at Long Chen, her eyes gleaming brightly as if lights were dancing in them.
But Li Yuechan, unaware of the truth, saw this scene and feel seething anger, “Long Chen, what are you two doing?”
“Ah.”
Li Yueyue was startled, quickly withdrawing her hand.
Long Chen also stood up, quickly calming himself down: “I was just applying needles to Yueyue, observing her reactions. If there’s no problem, I’m planning to start treating Grandpa.”
“Is that so?”
Li Yuechan frowned deeply.
She was holding two bags, looking suspicious.
Just now, Li Yueyue and Long Chen were too close for comfort, so close that it made Li Yuechan feel as if she was being placed under a big, conspicuous hat.
“Sister, look, I’ve just removed the needles, they are still here.”
Li Yueyue carefully pointed to the nearby Silver Needle Box.
“Li Yueyue, why are you here?”
Li Yuechan asked.
“Dad said brother-in-law would be bored here taking care of Grandpa by himself and, being a man, he certainly isn’t thorough in many aspects, so he sent me over to help,” Li Yueyue replied.
“You are just fooling around with him,” Li Yuechan glared at Li Yueyue, then immediately turned her head towards Long Chen, angrily saying: “Long Chen, didn’t you say you were going to ask your master to come to save Grandpa? Are you planning to do it yourself now?”
“Yuechan, I can do it, can you trust me this one time?”
Long Chen stared at Li Yuechan.
“No way,” Li Yuechan shook her head firmly: “This is no joking matter. A single mistake could harm Grandpa, I absolutely will not agree.”
“Sister, brother-in-law really can do it, I believe in his medical skills.”
Li Yueyue urgently said.
After these days of interaction and personal experience, Li Yueyue had come to fully trust Long Chen.
