Chapter 3: The Untamed Wolf

If He Wanqing had been in her right mind at this moment, she would have been able to see the contempt and smugness in He Cao’s eyes. Unfortunately, He Wanqing, who was lost in her pain, didn’t look up, so she didn’t notice this. She continued to talk about what she wanted to do and asked He Cao for help. When she mentioned that she wanted to get back the money she had spent and the houses she had bought for her son and daughter, He Cao’s face changed. Her gaze was like looking at a dead person, as she secretly agreed to help her while making a note of what she said, intending to have someone go and get it later.

 To avoid any accidents, He Cao probed again: “Little sister, have you talked to Uncle and the others about this?” If she had, it would be troublesome. He Cao, who was suddenly irritated, had no intention of continuing the conversation.

 “Little sister, I’ve been feeling unwell lately, and I’m a bit uncomfortable sitting for a long time. You know, why don’t you go back first, I’ll tell Big Brother and the others later, and ask him to help you with this?” She rubbed her right waist as she got up to see her off. He Wanqing saw her actions and got up as well: “I’m sorry, cousin, I forgot about your surgery.

Okay, you tell your Big Brother later, I’ll leave first, I still need to tell Big Brother and the others about this, and ask them to come and help.” Hearing this, He Cao’s hand stopped rubbing her waist, the irritable expression on her face instantly replaced by a smile: “Little sister, Big Brother and the others live quite far away, one south, one north, it’s not convenient, don’t tell them about this. I’m here, I definitely won’t let you suffer, you can rest assured! Otherwise, when we go back home together one day, Big Brother and the others will nag me to death!” It’s great, since she doesn’t know, it’s even easier to solve.

“……..” He Wanqing, who was thinking in silence, didn’t say anything. Seeing this, He Cao continued: “I heard that Big Brother’s family has a new grandson, and Uncle’s health isn’t good either. We are both forty years old, you shouldn’t let them worry about you. It’s a lot of trouble going back and forth, anyway, I’m here, I won’t let you suffer, don’t go and bother them!” Thinking about the situation back home, and the things happening in her cousin and nephew’s families. Thinking about how she had been acting like her brain was filled with lard all these years, she nodded helplessly: “Then I won’t say anything, we’ll talk about it after things are settled.”

 “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take care of it for you.” Seeing He Wanqing, who, as always, listened to her again, He Cao smiled contentedly. Then she looked at the weather outside, seeing that the rain had stopped, in order to end things sooner, she mentioned again that she was feeling unwell and needed to rest. This time He Wanqing didn’t stay. She had already said what she needed to say, there was no need to stay, after all, she had things to deal with back home.

He Wanqing, who said goodbye and left, coughed as she walked, as if she was going to cough up her lungs. In order not to delay things, after leaving the community, she didn’t run back, but hailed a taxi to go home. She didn’t know that as soon as she left, the man who had been listening upstairs for a long time came down from the stairs. Without waiting for He Cao to make a move, he gave instructions. Seeing the maid throw away the stool that He Wanqing had just sat on, He Cao went to sit on the sofa and quietly watched the man arrange things.

 It wasn’t until the phone call ended that she smiled and said: “Weijun, you’re so ruthless, if my cousin knew, she would be so angry.” “Even if I’m ruthless, I’m not as ruthless as you, after all, wasn’t it you who seduced me and provoked me in the first place? Everything I’ve done, which one wasn’t done according to your wishes, my darling.” Back then, if she hadn’t seduced him before marriage, why would he have taken a step. You know, He Wanqing was a real beauty, even though she was now ravaged by time, the beauty in her bones couldn’t be concealed. Thinking about the threats of this person back then, which prevented him from sleeping with such a beautiful woman, he was filled with resentment. Then, thinking about He Wanqing, who was still a girl until her death, the little bit of remaining reluctance in his heart finally surfaced. But it only lasted for a blink of an eye before it disappeared under He Cao’s seduction.

“I seduced you? If you hadn’t been able to control your own brother, how could I have seduced you? It’s actually me who lost out! I’ve been with you for so many years, I could only be a widow back home, if you hadn’t been transferred to a place where birds don’t shit, I wouldn’t even be able to see anyone. Even then, I was living under her name, I almost forgot my own name. I didn’t dislike you, but you disliked me for seducing you. How about this, you go back to her, and I’ll live with our son and daughter???” She loosened her arms around him, pouted, sat up straight, and stared at Xu Weijun. Xu Weijun, who knew he was in the wrong, quickly begged for mercy and apologized, and only then did she coax her back. The two of them, their mood restored, discussed how to deal with her while sitting by the phone, waiting for good news.

On the other side, He Wanqing took a taxi and went to the police station to report the case, then went back home. After closing the car door, she let out a long sigh, her lips curled up in a slight smile of relief as she walked towards her home. When she reached the front door, she found that it was closed. She smiled wryly and took out her key to open the door. The door opened, and before she could enter, a voice greeted her: “Mom, you’re back, how are the test results? Is it serious?” “Mom, didn’t you just go to get the report? Why did it take so long? By the way, it was raining so hard just now, didn’t you get wet???” Hearing her son and daughter call her “Mom” one after another, He Wanqing felt sick to her stomach. However, in order not to alarm them, she could only nod stiffly: “It’s okay.” After saying that, she changed her shoes and appeared in front of them.

The two of them, who were about to continue talking, saw her disheveled and wet appearance, and almost couldn’t help but laugh. “Mom, did you fall into a mud pit? You’re covered in mud, it’s disgusting.” She said this with disdain and walked away, but her eyes were still on her, wanting to remember her disheveled appearance, and when she got the money and the house, she would laugh at her properly. “Mom, go change your clothes quickly, otherwise you’ll get the floor dirty, and you’ll have to clean it yourself.” “By the way, Mom, my boyfriend said that the house isn’t in my name, so he won’t marry me. So you see, he’s still at work, let’s go and transfer the ownership later! And the money in your card, I just went to withdraw it, I’m going to buy a car for my boyfriend later, that’s not enough, you see if you can give me some more. You know his father is an official, so you can’t be stingy with the money.” “Mom, my boyfriend is the same, he said the dowry house and money can’t be less than my brother’s. Anyway, you’re going to transfer the ownership with him later, so you can transfer my house as well! Oh, right, and the money, my boyfriend wants to start a business, I need to invest in advance. You can’t give too little, otherwise his family will definitely look down on me for being from the countryside.”
