Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Clingy and Possessive Boyfriend
Li Chenmo’s eyes lit up, he tried hard to hold back his joy, and asked probingly, “That means you agree with me?”

Lu Jueyu glanced at him, and asked him back, “Did you give me another choice? Your health is the most important.”

Hearing her words, he was overjoyed, and finally couldn’t help it, and let out a low laugh. Seeing him laughing foolishly, she couldn’t get angry even if she was annoyed. So she could only say helplessly, “Come on. I will help you back to the room.”

Li Chenmo knew it was time to stop. So, he nodded and obediently went back to his room. After she covered him with the quilt, he took her hand and put a pair of red hair clips in her palm.

“I bought this for you. Do you like it?” He asked.

For her, this kind of antique is very interesting. While this design is old fashioned for her, it is the latest design in this day and age and quite expensive. She held the hair clips and said, “I like it. Thank you Brother Chenmo.”

“Is it expensive? I heard from my second sister-in-law that this kind of hair clip cost a lot of money,” she added.

Li Chenmo shook his head and said, “It’s not expensive. As long as you like it.”

“I will cherish it,” she said with a smile.

Because of this gift, her annoyance disappeared instantly. The two chatted for a while before she went home.

The next day, Lu Han and Lu Cheng went to the mountains to gather more bamboo to build a waterway for the Li family. At noon, Father Li came with the matchmaker and Li Chenmo’s brothers. Because the matter discussed was related to her, Lu Jueyu stayed in her room. Feeling bored, she locked the door and entered her space.

Lu Jueyu went to the warehouse to get some wool and started knitting a few sweaters, scarves, gloves, socks, and even stomach warmers. She picked out a few festive shades of sorrel, soft pink and light green for her mother, sisters-in-law and niece. For the man and her nephew, she chose black, dark blue, dark green and brown.

She actually wanted to choose light blue for Li Chenmo, but in this day and age, this color is not available. If she used a color that wasn’t available in this era, it would raise questions. So she can only choose these boring colors.

Since the time in the space is different from the outside, she can knit slowly while eating snacks. Before she knew it, she had spent hours in her space finishing up several pairs of gloves. She used to make these things to sell in her previous life. Every Valentine’s Day or Christmas, she receives many orders. Not only is her product reasonably priced, but her workmanship is also very good. It was better than what is sold in the store.

After leaving the space, she listened to the conversation outside and found that Father Li hadn’t left yet. So, she entered her own space again and continued to knit. When she came out again, the sun had already started to set.

Lu Jueyu was startled, and went to the kitchen. When she entered the kitchen, her sisters-in-law had already prepared dinner. After seeing her, they didn’t say anything but asked her to help bring out the food. After finishing her dinner in a hurry, she went to Li’s house.

Fortunately, when she was in her own space, she had already prepared dinner for Li Chenmo. So, she just needs to bring it over. Because of the cold weather, she boiled medicinal chicken soup for him to keep him warm. Besides soup, she also made salmon steak and some fruit salad. She put a lot of vegetables in the chicken soup so didn’t make any more vegetable dishes, and just served it with white rice.

When she arrived at Li’s house, Father Li had already eaten and hadn’t returned from his elder brother’s house. So, Li Chenmo was the only one left in the house. Lu Jueyu entered his room and put the food on the table. She pursed her lips and found that he was not in a good mood.

She sat on the Kang bed and asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you ignoring me?”

Li Chenmo glanced at her, and said in a low voice, “You haven’t come to visit me since morning.”

“Am I not here now?” She asked confusedly.

He didn’t speak and just looked at her. Just when she felt the need to coax him, she heard him say, “Jueyu, I miss you. Before, I thought it would be fine if we didn’t meet before we got married. But when I don’t see you for several hours, I feel uneasy and uncomfortable. I keep telling myself that it doesn’t matter if you don’t come, because you may be busy. But when I hear people talking about your relationship with another man, I can’t help feeling angry and worried.”

“Jueyu, do you think there is something wrong with me?” He asked after being silent for a while.

She was taken aback by his straightforward confession. Unknowingly, she blushed. Even the tips of her ears and neck were red. This man is a clingy and possessive boyfriend type ah!

This situation really caught her off guard, he was not like this in the original plot. He should be a gentle and indifferent male protagonist who is never jealous. Who is this aggrieved man who looks like a bullied little wife?!

“You… how can you say these words so directly?” She stammered shyly and looked away.

Li Chenmo didn’t feel that what he said was wrong. These words are his sincere feelings. He knows he shouldn’t be like this, but he just can’t help it. When he thought of her getting so close to other men, he had a feeling of wanting to kill someone. Not to mention others, even himself, were frightened by his possessiveness. Not seeing her since the morning, countless memories that didn’t belong to this lifetime flooded into his mind.
