Chapter 20

The pajamas Zhou Yichuan was wearing belonged to her brother. The trouser legs and sleeves were obviously shorter, and the chest button was only fastened to the second button. She had seen him in military uniform, but had never seen Zhou Yichuan in pajamas.

A handsome face that is so perfect that there is no problem to find any fault with it, broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. No matter what he wears, he looks good. He is totally a walking clothes rack! Xu Zhihuan never knew that pajamas could be worn so well.

“Brother Yichuan, what’s wrong?”

Xu Zhihuan wanted to play the role of a good host and take care of Zhou Yichuan.

Zhou Yichuan stared at the water cup in her hand and said in a low, magnetic voice, “Drink water.”

“Um, I’ll go get you a glass of water.” Xu Zhihuan turned and was about to go downstairs. Zhou Yichuan took the glass from her naturally and said, “I’ll just drink this.”

“Hey!” This seems to be her cup! Xu Zhihuan had just drunk water from this cup when Zhou Yichuan’s thin lips were already touching the rim.

Is this a disguised kiss?

Xu Zhihuan’s face turned red.

“Good night.”

Zhou Yichuan returned the empty cup to Xu Zhihuan, then turned around and went into the house and closed the door.

Xu Zhihuan: “…”

Could it be that she hadn’t felt the nourishment of love for a long time, which was why she had these messed up thoughts?

Xu Zhihuan shook her head and decided to go to sleep!

It’s impossible for Zhou Yichuan to have any feelings for her. Compared with the two siblings, her brother has a better chance of winning than her.

…

Zhao family.

Zhao Baoshun came back drunk. Li Rou held her son and stayed away from him to prevent the child from being disturbed by the smell of his alcohol.

“Come here!” Zhao Baoshun narrowed his eyes and waved at Li Rou, “Hug my eldest son!”

Li Rou sat on the bed without moving, “You smell too much of alcohol, wait until tomorrow to hold your son.”

“Li Rou! This is my son. I can hold him whenever I want.” Zhao Baoshun pointed at Li Rou and cursed.

Li Rou’s face remained expressionless from beginning to end. She carefully placed the child on the bed and turned around to get some hangover medicine for Zhao Baoshun. “Take it, or you’ll have a headache tomorrow.”

Zhao Baoshun opened his mouth first and motioned Li Rou to feed him.

Li Rou took care of him and helped him take medicine and drink water. Zhao Baoshun suddenly grabbed her arm and hugged her in his arms.

“Wife, I need your help with something.” Zhao Baoshun buried his head in the crook of Li Rou’s neck and burped loudly. The foul smell that hit her nose made Li Rou frown. “What is it?”

Zhao Baoshun slowly raised his head and said, “The factory is in trouble and needs some cash flow.”

Li Rou was helpless, “I don’t have any money.”

“Of course I know you don’t have any money, but can you find a way to help me get some?” Zhao Baoshun paused and mentioned the Xu family. “Your aunt’s business has been booming in recent years. You just need to go back and ask them to invest a few hundred thousand in the Xu family factory. Wife, whether our factory can be revived depends on you!”

If it were in the past, Li Rou felt there was still some hope, but now… it might be difficult.

Li Rou hesitated and did not agree to Zhao Baoshun. She didn’t know what to say and did not dare to offend her in-laws.

“Hmm?” Zhao Baoshun urged Li Rou to agree.

Li Rou pursed her lips before saying, “I’ll give it a try. As for whether it will work in the end, I don’t know.”

“It’s okay. Your aunt loves you the most, so she will definitely agree.” Zhao Baoshun happily leaned over and kissed the corner of her mouth. “Wife, we haven’t slept together for a long time. I’m going to treat you well tonight.”

Li Rou pushed his shoulders, preventing Zhao Baoshun from getting close, and tilted her neck back. “No, the doctor said I have to wait three months. I haven’t recovered yet.”

“That’s enough,” Zhao Baoshun lowered his voice and kissed her neck. “Don’t you miss me?”

Li Rou knew that she couldn’t “escape” today. The man was drunk, and if she didn’t cooperate, she would suffer.

“Shh, keep your voice down. Don’t wake up our son.” Li Rou put her arms around Zhao Baoshun’s shoulders and said softly.

“Don’t worry, even if my son wakes up, what can he know at such a young age?”

Zhao Baoshun looked at Li Rou’s beautiful face even after giving birth, and couldn’t help but feel an inexplicable anger rising in his lower abdomen.

Ten minutes later, Li Rou stayed on the bed, her chest rising and falling slightly, just like in her previous life.

She had just given birth and her body had not fully recovered yet, so she could not satisfy Zhao Baoshun.

The man lost his temper. He immediately pulled the quilt over and turned over, ignoring Li Rou. “It’s boring.”

Li Rou didn’t have time to feel sad. The child started crying, so she put on her clothes and hurried to comfort her son.

After coaxing him for a while, his son was still crying loudly, so Zhao Baoshun impatiently drove them out.

“Get out of here, both of you!”

Li Rou didn’t dare to refute and quickly took her son to the guest room to sleep.

Zhao Baoshun cursed in dissatisfaction, “I should have stayed outside tonight!”

Li Rou: “…”

Go find a wild woman outside!

That woman should be pregnant by now, right? !

Li Rou’s eyes flickered, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

In her previous life, that illegitimate child had caused her a lot of harm, so she had to solve the problem fundamentally in this life.

“Wa …

The son in her arms was crying loudly, and Li Rou coaxed him patiently.

The young child did not sleep through the night, so Li Rou stayed up late to take care of her son. The next day she returned to the Xu family.

We must do what Zhao Baoshun instructed us to do.

“Why are you here again?” Wang Wanjun was discussing with her daughter about going to the department store to buy clothes in the afternoon. She glanced at Li Rou and saw her coming back with the child. She didn’t look at her well.

“Aunt, does that mean I can’t even go back home now?” Li Rou said with tears in her eyes and a wronged voice.

“My mother passed away early, but in my heart I regard my aunt as my own mother. I don’t know what I did wrong to make my aunt so annoyed with me. Otherwise, aunt, please tell me directly and I will change!”

If this happened under normal circumstances, Wang Wanjun would have been soft-hearted!

I thought that she was just a child after all, so there was no need to argue with her.

But now I don’t think so at all. Li Rou’s words sound hypocritical.

He said this, but I don’t know what he was thinking.

Wang Wanjun looked at her coldly, “Now that you’re married, you should live a down-to-earth life with your in-laws. Why are you running around like that? If your in-laws pick on you, your life there will be difficult!”

Xu Zhihuan didn’t even need to say anything, Wang Wanjun took the lead in the direct attack –

His words showed his disdain for Li Rou.

Xu Zhihuan twitched the corners of his lips and looked at Li Rou with interest.

Did this woman come here today for Zhao Fengjiao or Yuan Qingan?

“Aunt, I have a good life at my husband’s house. My parents-in-law take good care of me. Aunt raised me. If I don’t even go back to my parents’ home, my parents-in-law will think I’m heartless.” Li said softly.

“Okay, what brings you back this time?” Wang Wanjun thought to herself that she was a heartless person.

“Aunt, the Zhao family factory is having some trouble with cash flow. Baoshun wants our family to give him some money to help him through this difficult time. But don’t worry, the money will definitely be returned, or you can consider it an investment in the factory, and there will be dividends at the end of the year.”

“You’re here to ask for money.”
