Chapter 8

Shen Qingli frowned slightly. Zhou Sicheng’s hostility towards her was inexplicable.

When she hadn’t stopped Zhou Yubai from giving him the money, malice had already existed. Zhou Sicheng really wanted her to die.

Why?

Shen Qingli thought about her original body’s past. After careful consideration, she determined that her original body had never offended Zhou Sicheng. At first, when their two families discussed marriage, Zhou Sicheng even agreed.

Why did he suddenly change?

Did something happen, or was Zhou Sicheng planning something?

Or maybe he was in cahoots with Li Qiushou and Zhao Dahua, and they were going to cheat Zhou Yubai’s money together.

No.

Shen Qingli tapped the bed lightly with her fingers habitually. If her supernatural power was still in the same state as at the end of the world, she could use the wood supernatural power to quietly extend her mental power.

She could monitor Zhou Sicheng’s every move.

Now…

Shen Qingli was tired just thinking about it.

She muttered a few words and fell asleep in a daze.

When she woke up again, it was already nine o’clock in the evening.

“Wake up, you must be hungry.” Zhou Yubai’s voice sounded, and the tenderness of his eyebrows could be seen clearly in the dim kerosene lamp in the room.

Shen Qingli supported his arm and got up, “It’s so late, why didn’t you call me.”

“I didn’t call you because you were sleeping soundly.” Zhou Yubai helped Shen Qingli get out of bed, “I’ll put the chicken soup on the stove and simmer it. I’ll go cook some noodles now. You can eat some and go back to sleep.”

Shen Qingli nodded, “I’ll go to the kitchen with you.”

Zhou Yubai was about to refuse but suddenly thought that Shen Qingli might be afraid of the dark when she was alone, so he nodded immediately, “Okay, I’ll hold you.”

Shen Qingli had no time to refuse and was carried directly to the kitchen by Zhou Yubai.

There was only one chair in the kitchen, which was kicked by Zhou Sicheng and bent. It was repaired by Zhou Yubai when he was cooking.

Zhou Yubai put Shen Qingli on the chair and ran over to get a bowl of chicken soup.

“Drink some first to warm your body. I’ll go cook noodles.”

The aroma of chicken soup lingered faintly. Shen Qingli was about to take it, but Zhou Yubai retracted his hand, “It’s a little hot. I’ll get you a spoon and drink it slowly.”

Shen Qingli couldn’t help but raise the corners of her lips. This man is so considerate.

Just after drinking the soup, the noodles over there were also cooked.

Zhou Yubai cooked noodles for Shen Qingli and put two steamed buns in front of him.

Shen Qingli felt warm in her heart, but also a little sour. This man, if you treat him a little bit well, he will return everything.

“I can’t eat anymore.” Shen Qingli put down her chopsticks after eating half a bowl.

“Eat as much as you can. I’ll eat the rest.” Zhou Yubai said in a gentle voice. He ate the steamed bread in his hand in a few bites and quickly finished the noodles in Shen Qingli’s bowl.

“Are you going to work tomorrow?” Shen Qingli asked. It was the busy farming season.

If it wasn’t for marriage, the team leader would not give Zhou Yubai leave.

Zhou Yubai was a good worker and could get full work points every day.

“Well, I’ll prepare the meal when I leave in the morning. You can get up when you wake up. You don’t have to get up early.” Zhou Yubai reminded me.

Shen Qingli’s lips moved. She didn’t go to work before. When she just came back, Zhao Dahua naturally wouldn’t let her eat white rice and forced her to work. Although there were no treacherous people in the village, they couldn’t bear to see others not working, so they all agreed.

On the first day, Shen Qingli vomited blood as soon as she walked into the field.

On the second day, Shen Qingli fainted before she even got to the place.

In the end, the captain decided that Shen Qingli could not go to work due to special circumstances. She was like a child or an old man. If she did not go to work, she would not have work points, but only a year-end salary.

Now that she was married, although Shen Qingli knew that she would recover soon, she was not ready to go to work. If she went to work, her time would be stuck. How could she have time to practice her supernatural powers?

“I can cook. From now on, you go to work and I will cook.” Shen Qingli said firmly. Zhou Yubai immediately refused, “You are not in good health, so take good care of yourself. You should be the same as when your mother was here.”

Shen Qingli’s lips moved. When she mentioned her original mother, she felt dazed for a moment. That woman was not simple either.

The two talked for a few more words and went to bed together.

Zhou Yubai covered Shen Qingli with a relatively new quilt and lay down on the side.

Shen Qingli’s lips curved, “We are married, why not cover ourselves with the same quilt?”

“I’m afraid that my sleeping posture will affect you.” Zhou Yubai said in a low voice.

Shen Qingli muttered to herself. Zhou Yubai’s sleeping posture was very good. He basically didn’t move when he was asleep. It was she who moved around in her sleep… 𝙬𝓦🆆.𝕍𝕆𝓓🆃🆆𝙡𝔸.🄲🄲

Half an hour later, Shen Qingli fell asleep.

Zhou Yubai carefully covered Shen Qingli with the quilt and got up and walked out quietly.

A man was standing outside the yard… Gu Qichuan.

Gu Qichuan said nothing, pointed to the foot of the mountain, and Zhou Yubai followed with big strides.

The two of them were soon some distance away from the yard. They could see the yard, but the yard couldn’t hear them talking.

Gu Qichuan swung a punch!

Zhou Yubai dodged sideways, and the two fought!

An hour later, the two separated.

Gu Qichuan was forced to take several steps back by Zhou Yubai. He panted and said, “As expected of the champion of the three-year competition.”

Zhou Yubai looked at Gu Qichuan, “You are not bad either.”

“I am very curious, why would someone who can become a soldier king be thrown out of the army.” Gu Qichuan asked sarcastically.

Zhou Yubai had a cold face and did not mean to answer.

“Divorce A Li, you are not suitable for her, and you can’t give her the life she wants.” Gu Qichuan’s voice was a few points colder than before. He had already inquired clearly, including Li Qiushuo and Zhao Dahua, coming to ask for people early this morning.

He was much smarter than the people in the village, and he guessed that Li Qiushuo and the others must have calculated Shen Qingli and Zhou Yubai, so they dared to be so fearless.

He was sure that his A Li was forced to be with Zhou Yubai.

He didn’t mind that she was divorced, as long as she could be by his side.

“Qingli said that she would not divorce me.” Zhou Yubai’s voice was not loud, but it was extremely lethal.

“You know she was forced!” Gu Qichuan was furious. He strode forward, “Ali and I were childhood sweethearts. If her family hadn’t had an accident, we would have been married now!”

“She only has me in her heart.”

Gu Qichuan exhaled slowly. He never lost his composure in front of others. Because of A Li, he could hardly control his emotions.

He had taken care of the girl since she was a child, and he felt very distressed when she was hurt. However, when her family changed drastically, he was on a mission in the army. When he hurried back, Shen’s father and mother had already completed the divorce.

Shen’s mother took Shen Qingli back to her parents’ home.

He had no time to chase her, so he could only write to her and ask her to wait for him…

He thought she would wait for him.

In fact, she was also waiting for him, but she was forced to endure too much.

Gu Qichuan’s eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to close them painfully, “Zhou Yubai, let A Li go.”
