Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 9

Chapter 9: Shameless Su Anna
Seeing that the young man wanted to say something, Lu Jueyu raised her hand to stop him, and added, “I don’t care what you think or what you feel. I have a fiance and I don’t want him to misunderstand me. So, stay away from me. If you disturb me like this again, don’t blame me for being impolite, and report you to the authorities.”

After Lu Jueyu finished talking, she bypassed the young man and left without hesitation. She didn’t know that the young man she met at Li Chenmo’s house was hiding behind a tree and watching them. He followed her until she was inside the house, before turning to report the incident to his captain.

Sitting on the Kang bed, Li Chenmo frowned as he listened to Xiao Zhang’s words.

“Did he do something to her?” he asked.

“No, captain. Sister-in-law is so powerful. Her tone was so cold that even I felt scared. The man could only stand there blankly, watching sister-in-law walk away.” Xiao Zhang said with a grin.

“I’ve already asked around and found out about that person. His name is Du Jiawen, and he’s from the county town. His family works in a factory, so his family has money. But he’s been engaged to his childhood friend, Huang Yuanfeng, since he was a child.” Xiao Zhang said while he observed Li Chenmo’s expression.

Seeing his calm expression, he continued cautiously, “Some villagers said that he likes sister-in-law for a long time and wants to propose to her. But before he can capture sister-in-law’s heart, she is already engaged to you.”

Li Chenmo was silent, trying to recall who Du Jiawen is. After a while, he finally remembered that person who was always stalking Lu Jueyu. He licked his molars and let out a chuckle.

Hearing his laugh, Xiao Zhang felt a chill go down his spine, and hurriedly said, “Captain, calm down. I’ve already taught him a lesson.”

Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and waited for his explanation. Xiao Zhang said, “When I returned after making sure that my sister-in-law had safely returned home, I saw this Du guy loitering around Lu’s house. So I covered his head with a sack and beat him. He wouldn’t be able to leave the bed for at least a week.”

After he finished talking, he looked at his captain with bright eyes asking for praise. Li Chenmo chuckled and said, “Well done. I will buy some meat for you to bring back.”

After hearing his words, Xiao Zhang was overjoyed, thanked him quickly, and then went to help Father Li repair the chicken coop.

After he was left alone in the room, Li Chenmo looked out the window and saw a young woman peeking from behind the fence. He narrowed his eyes when he recognized her. He just watched coldly as she talked to Father Li.

“Uncle Li, how is Brother Chenmo’s injury?” She asked worriedly.

“Miss Su, please don’t call my son so intimately. He has a fiancée and will be married in two months. You don’t have to worry about his injuries, Jueyu will take care of him.” Father Li said with a frown, obviously very unhappy.

Su Anna bit her lip, her eyes reddened, and said softly, “I’m just worried about Brother Chenmo. I have no other intentions.”

Father Li hates this kind of woman who likes to pretend to be pitiful as if everyone bullies her. He blocked the gate with his body, and said, “Miss Su, please go back. My son has a fiancée, so you should stop bothering him.”

He has told her twice about Lu Jueyu. A well-bred woman would understand his words and keep her distance from his third son. But he still underestimated Su Anna’s shamelessness. Not only did she not leave, she even started crying.

“Uncle Li, I… I just like him. Do you need to keep reminding me about that woman? I have no intention of destroying their relationship, I just want to take care of him until he recovers. Is that too much to ask?” She sobbed as she asked.

When Li’s father was stunned by her shameless words and sudden tears, Li Chenmo had already stood at the door with Xiao Zhang’s support.

“Yes, it’s too much. Miss Su, we are not familiar and never talk with each other. Please stop saying things that may mislead others. My heart is very small, so it can only accommodate one person, and that person is my fiancée, Lu Jueyu. There will never be a place for another person in it. So, stop your wishful thinking and don’t bother me and my family anymore. If you are still not stopping, I will report you to the officers.” Li Chenmo said coldly, and then returned to his room.

Su Anna was stunned by his words. He was so cruel that he didn’t save any face for her and even threatened her openly. She looked around and saw the villagers pointing at her in whispers. Feeling ashamed and humiliated, she ran back to her house.

Lu Jueyu didn’t know that there was a Mary Sue drama at her fiancé’s house, and was rummaging through things in her room. Since she has no memory of the original host, she doesn’t know if she has money. She searched her small room from the beams to hidden corners, and finally found a small jar hidden in the corner of the Kang bed. She opened the jar and saw some money and coins inside.

After she poured out the money, she counted it. Although it was only fifty-eight yuan in total, it was already a huge sum of money in this day and age, as two yuan could buy a kilogram of fine grains. Of course, if she has food coupons, she can buy them at this price. If she went to the black market, the price would probably be nearly double the market price.

Lu Jueyu is not used to the value of money in this era. In her previous world, a kilogram of rice cost twelve yuan.
