Chapter 132: Angry Whether Winning or Losing an Argument

Jiang Han stopped, staring at her. Seeing that she wasn’t lying, his expression softened a bit, but his tone was still harsh.

“Do you listen to everything I say? I didn’t see you being so obedient before! You believed all those messy things outside! Are you crazy?”

He was scolding her again.

Hu Yao pursed her lips, unhappy as she pulled her hand away from him. “I was crazy back then, that’s why I’m fine now. You’ve been scaring me!”

“You said you wanted to divorce me, and you said you were going to deal with me properly.”

Her eyes, as she looked at him, unconsciously filled with tears and a hint of unknown grievance.

“When did I ever really touch you? You’re almost as good as the ancestors of the Old Jiang family, you should be burning incense to me!” Seeing that she was about to cry again, Jiang Han’s face darkened slightly, but he softened his tone.

“You used to climb the roof and tease cats and dogs all the time. It’s not wrong to say you deserved a beating?”

“What divorce! You think my words are just wind in your ears? Say it again and try me!”

“Since this matter is a misunderstanding, let’s forget about it… Do you still want the glutinous rice cake?” He picked up the glutinous rice cake from the ground and asked her.

Hu Yao didn’t want it. Her eyes still held a vague resentment as she looked at him.

It was quite irritating.

“Fine, I was wrong!” Jiang Han gritted his teeth, his face black.

Damn it, she wants to run away with Jiang Fuchao, and I still have to apologize to her? What kind of logic is that! She’s spoiled rotten!

“Eat!” He glared at her.

“I don’t want to eat now!” Hu Yao glared back at him, pulling her hand away from him, and went out to check on Hu Xiujie.

She remembered how he had held Xu Xuzhu’s hand in front of so many people on the street and said he wanted to divorce her. She felt a dull ache in her heart.

“Where are you going in such a hurry! Is there gold for you to pick up?” Seeing her rush to find that woman who wanted to take her away, Jiang Han became irritated.

She even dared to glare at him! I’ll beat her flat one day!

Hu Xiujie hadn’t left. Jiang Han’s angry appearance just now was scary, and she was worried that he would do something to Hu Yao. She was very uneasy.

She could still hear his angry scolding of Hu Yao outside, and she was extremely worried.

“Sister Xiujie, I’m fine.”

Hu Yao opened the door and saw her worried expression, her heart warmed. She took her hand and pulled her inside.

She quietly explained the previous incident to her.

“…I’m sorry, Sister Xiujie, I caused you trouble.” Hu Yao felt a little guilty.

“It’s fine as long as you’re doing well. There’s no such thing as trouble. Why are you being so polite to me now?” Hu Xiujie looked at her and sighed softly, but knowing that Jiang Han was truly good to her, she was also relieved.

When she first saw Hu Yao, she was stunned because she looked even more beautiful and delicate now than she had a few years ago.

It was clear that she was well-fed and well-taken care of. However, she had written that letter to her, and the few guesses she had made were not entirely confirmed.

Hu Xiujie sat with Hu Yao and talked, while Jiang Han stood not far away, staring straight at them. His unhappy and gloomy appearance was hard to ignore.

“Don’t you have something to do?” Hu Yao noticed Hu Xiujie’s discomfort and looked at him.

“Nothing to do!”

“…Then can you pour us some tea?” Knowing that he was still unhappy and disliked Hu Xiujie, Hu Yao softened her tone.

Jiang Han stared at her for a moment, then impatiently walked over to make tea.

The sound of the teacups landing on the table was loud, especially Hu Xiujie’s cup.

“…”

“Sister Xiujie, don’t mind him.” Hu Yao glanced at him, frowned, and whispered to Hu Xiujie.

Her words were all about protecting Jiang Han and speaking for him. Hu Xiujie smiled and shook her head, indicating that she really didn’t mind.

Jiang Han’s hostility towards her actually showed that he cared about Hu Yao very much and was afraid that she would take Hu Yao away.

It was strange to see this man, who had a bad reputation and was known for his ruthlessness, have this side to him.

This girl must have feelings for him too.

“Sister Xiujie, have some glutinous rice cake. It’s delicious.” Hu Yao didn’t know what she was thinking. Seeing Jiang Han standing there, scaring her, she half-coaxed and half-angrily “chased him away,” picked up the tea he had made, and brought it over to place the glutinous rice cake in front of Hu Xiujie.

They hadn’t seen each other for so long, and Hu Yao missed her and had so many things to tell her. She looked worse than before, and Hu Yao was very concerned about her.

Hu Xiujie’s eyes flickered with complex emotions. She didn’t say much about her own situation, just smiling and saying that she was doing well.

Hu Yao didn’t quite believe her, but seeing that she didn’t want to talk about it, she didn’t press her further.

Jiang Han, who had been chased away, looked even more unhappy. He pulled a long face and stared fixedly at the back of Hu Yao’s head. Seeing her give the glutinous rice cake he had bought for her to that woman, he snorted coldly.

Why did I come back and give her glutinous rice cake? Let her run away! Let her run away with that woman!

“Dad, what are you doing?”

Jiang Xiaochao….

“I’ll go!” He thought, snorted.

Jiang Han, with a dark face, kicked him and the ox away together.

What the hell are you yelling about! It’s obviously Hu Yao, that woman, giving him the cold shoulder and throwing a tantrum!

“Get lost, I get annoyed just seeing you!”

Jiang Xiaochao came back and inexplicably took a beating, he was also angry, puffed up his cheeks and rushed forward to headbutt him. He was still holding the rope that tethered the ox, winding it around and around, and the little ox followed along, turning in circles.

“Jiang Fu Chao! Are you tired of living? You didn’t get beaten this morning, you want to make up for it now?” Jiang Han grabbed him by the collar.

“…What are you doing?” Hu Yao heard the commotion and couldn’t help but come out to see.

“Look at your good son!” Jiang Han snorted, not looking at her.

“Dad hit my ox again! He also said I didn’t take good care of Mom!” Jiang Xiaochao complained.

Hu Yao was silent for a moment, seeing him still holding Jiang Xiaochao and hitting his butt, she stepped forward to stop him, pursed her lips and patted him once.

“Why are you hitting him again! It’s not Chaochao’s fault.”

“That’s right! Why are you always hitting me!”

“Don’t be angry, I won’t leave with Sister Axiu, I just said that.”

“Yeah! Dad is always angry!” Jiang Xiaochao echoed, not understanding the situation.

Jiang Han heard her soften and reiterate that she wouldn’t leave him, the frustration in his heart dissipated for the most part. However, seeing the two of them, mother and son, saying the same thing in unison, he couldn’t help but give her a slap on the butt: “Are you satisfied now? Both of you are getting hit!”

“…”
