Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 470

Chapter 470: Selfish and Arrogant
Li Chenmo glanced at Chen Lina and said coldly, “In that case, I don’t need your compensation or your apology. I will report you to the authorities and let the officers handle the case in accordance with the law.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Sang panicked and said, “Brother Li, please don’t report my wife. We will do as you say.”

Hearing her husband’s words, Chen Lina glared at him and said, “Li Sang, you are just a useless man! How dare you make decisions for me?! I…”

SLAP!

Before she could finish her words, a loud slap landed on her cheek. Everyone looked at Aunt Li who had just slapped Chen Lina with surprise.

“Chen Lina, if you dare to yell at my son and belittle him again, I will ask him to divorce you! Do you think my son will not dare to divorce you after you give birth to a son for my Li family?” Aunt Li asked.

Chen Lina covered her red and swollen cheeks and looked at her mother-in-law in shock. This was the first time she had been slapped in public. Although her mother-in-law would nag her, she never beat her in public. At most, he was nagging while glaring at her. Looking at Aunt Li’s darkened face, she finally realized her situation, felt scared and shut up.

Aunt Li took a deep breath, calmed down the anger in her heart, and said, “Nephew, as long as you don’t report my daughter-in-law, we will do as you say.”

She then bowed to them and added, “I’m very sorry for what she did. I promise to punish her and make sure she doesn’t make the same mistake again.”

Seeing Aunt Li bowing to them, Lu Jueyu pulled her husband’s sleeves and said, “Husband…”

Li Chenmo looked at his wife and sighed, “I promise that I won’t report her, but I want her to apologize to my wife in public.”

Li Sang nodded quickly and said, “Brother Li, we will definitely apologize.”

After reaching an agreement, Aunt Li took Chen Lina and left in a hurry followed by Li Sang.

As for the villagers, although they did nothing, they still came after hearing her cry for help. So Lu Jueyu gave each of them two peaches. After seeing them off, Li Chenze and Li Lingyun took the children to the backyard to give Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu some space.

She placed the remaining peaches in her space. When she finished, she saw her husband looking at her sullenly. She walked up to him, hugged his waist, and said, “Husband, she didn’t actually hurt me. I messed up my hair and soiled my clothes. I’m really fine.”

Li Chenmo hugged her tightly and said, “Wife, do you know how worried I was when Xiao Li told me there was a thief and when I saw you just now? Even if you know who the thief is, can’t you wait for me? What if she has a weapon? What if you are seriously injured? What should I do then?”

After a long silence, Lu Jueyu finally said in a low voice, “Husband, I’m sorry.”

“Yu Er, when you do things in the future, can you please think of me? It’s just some peaches, if she steals them then she steals them. We can afford to lose these few peaches. The most important thing to me is your safety.” Li Chenmo said with a hint of pleading.

Hearing his words, Lu Jueyu felt guilty and sad. She had no idea she could have such an influence on her husband. She thought that since she was strong and had space, nothing would happen to her. Even if she is injured, she still has spiritual grass powder. Only now did she realize that the mere possibility of her getting hurt would devastate her husband so much.

‘I was so selfish and arrogant,’ she thought.

Feeling the wetness on his clothes, Li Chenmo lowered his head and said with a sigh, “Why are you crying? I am the one who should cry. You heartless woman.”

He patted his wife on the back and coaxed gently, “Okay, don’t cry. Xiao Li and Xiao Huang will be worried if they see you crying. ”

Lu Jueyu wiped her tears and snot on her husband’s clothes and said, “I didn’t cry. There was dust in my eyes.”

“Mhmm, you have dust in your eyes.” Li Chenmo said with a chuckle.

After a while, Lu Jueyu calmed down and said, “Husband, I’m going to check out the food.”

Li Chenmo looked at her watery eyes, and felt his heart throbbing with pain. He lowered his head and kissed the tears from the corners of her eyes before letting her go.

In less than an hour, the news that Chen Lina had stolen Lu Jueyu’s peach spread throughout Xie Village and shocked everyone.

Back home, Aunt Li was sitting in the living room, with Chen Lina kneeling in front of her. Although she was dissatisfied with her mother-in-law, she did not dare to disobey her and could only bow her head and kneel obediently.

Beside her stood Li Sang, looking at his mother worriedly. Although his wife was greedy and stingy, she never did anything excessive. This is the first time she steals from someone else.

After a long silence, Aunt Li finally said, “Shitou’s mother, you have been married into my Li family for several years. Although we cannot give you a luxurious life, we never let you starve. No matter how I think about it, I can’t understand your reasons for stealing.”

After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Chen Lina kept her mouth shut and didn’t speak. She looked at the ground as she knelt.

“Aren’t you going to explain it to me and Ah Sang?” Aunt Li asked.

Chen Lina raised her head, looked at her mother-in-law and said, “Do you need me to explain anything? If I told you that I didn’t steal her peaches, would you believe it? You already believe in your heart that I am the thief.”
