Mr. Shen, your love-struck wife doesn't want you anymore!

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment.

Although the lighting was poor, the two were so close that Jiang Yu could clearly see the red marks on his face.

Shen Chengyan laughed and said, "Why are you acting silly?"

Jiang Yu withdrew her gaze and said coldly, "I can only get everything if you die? You're not even thirty yet, which means I'll have to live a life of poverty for decades. What's the difference between having a will and not having one?"

Shen Chengyan said, "What if I die in an accident someday?"

Jiang Yu: "I can't think of any possibility that a scourge could die young. Good people in this world never live long."

Shen Chengyan was genuinely amused by her: "Fine, whatever, in your eyes, I'm just a complete bastard."

Jiang Yu closed her eyes: "Yes, you are a bastard."

Shen Chengyan hummed in agreement, took her hand under the covers, and suddenly asked, "If I die someday, will you miss me?"

Jiang Yu replied without hesitation: "I'll only want your money."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Very good, she lives life with perfect clarity.

**

The next day, Jiang Yu was awakened by a tingling, itchy sensation on her face.

She opened her eyes, and in front of her was a magnified, ugly face.

Shen Mo lay on the edge of the bed, staring at her intently: "Are you a pig? How can you sleep so much? The sun's almost high in the sky."

Jiang Yu closed her eyes: "I don't want to beat you up first thing in the morning when we're going out to play."

Shen Mo didn't go out. He kicked off his slippers and climbed onto the bed like a nimble little pig. "Are you hungry? Dad asked me to come up and wake you up. He's making breakfast downstairs."

Jiang Yu thought to herself that she was finally living a good life, able to eat breakfast made by the young master himself.

Except when she was pregnant, when Shen Chengyan was inseparable from her, he was almost always working. He didn't have much time to sit down and have dinner with her, let alone breakfast.

Moreover, he has never cooked before, and he doesn't even know where the pots and pans are in the house.

Shen Mo continued nagging, "Get up, get up, get up."

Jiang Yu was so tired of being nagged that her ears were practically calloused. With a dark expression, she got up, and Shen Mo quickly climbed off the bed, sat on the floor, picked up her slippers, and put them on her feet.

Jiang Yu felt uncomfortable instead. "I'll put it on myself. You can leave."

Shen Mo grabbed her foot and wouldn't let go. Jiang Yu tried to push him away with the back of her foot, but in his haste, he scratched her instep with his toenail. Jiang Yu hissed in pain. Shen Mo immediately got up, said sorry, and ran away in a panic.

Jiang Yu: "..."

After she finished washing up, she went downstairs. Shen Mo was sitting in the living room watching TV, while Shen Chengyan was busy in the open kitchen.

As soon as he saw her come down, Shen Mo immediately looked away, as if afraid she would come after him.

Thinking of how cowardly he had been in the square yesterday, Jiang Yu frowned and went to the kitchen.

Shen Chengyan glanced at her forehead and nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, the swelling has gone down."

Jiang Yu casually picked up a fork, speared some cut fruit from the side, and put it in her mouth. "Your son hurt my foot just now, and he ran away without me saying a word."

Shen Chengyan paused for a moment, then said, "He probably did it accidentally, so don't blame him."

Jiang Yu: "..."

One or two, is she some kind of fierce person?

She looked at Shen Chengyan seriously and earnestly: "Don't you think he's a bit of a coward?"

Shen Chengyan glanced at the living room. "You're quite bold in front of me."

"I used to think he was brave, but yesterday I found out he's just a paper tiger." After a moment's hesitation, Jiang Yu said, "And I also found out he doesn't seem to know how to fight."

Shen Chengyan put the sandwiches he had made on a plate, poured in milk and juice, and said nonchalantly, "The problem is that they can fight."

He handed the milk and juice to Jiang Yu, then carried the sandwich plate himself towards the restaurant.

Jiang Yu followed behind him and said, "You didn't understand what I meant. What I meant by him not knowing how to fight is that he doesn't know how to fight back."

Shen Chengyan went to the kitchen and brought out some cut fruit, placed it on the dining table, pulled out a chair and said to Jiang Yu, "Come sit down and eat."

Jiang Yu frowned. "Didn't you hear what I said?"

"I heard you." Shen Chengyan pressed her into the chair. "Try the breakfast I made first."

Then he added, "If he could fight back, you should be the one having a headache."

Jiang Yu rolled his eyes; he had no idea how important the matter was.

Shen Chengyan went to the living room to turn off the TV and called Shen Mo over to have breakfast together.

Shen Mo climbed onto the chair, sat down, and finished the milk in one gulp.

Seeing that Jiang Yu was staring at him, he pursed his lips and said, "I didn't smack my lips."

Jiang Yu: "..."

Shen Chengyan asked her, "How does it taste?"

Jiang Yu ate listlessly. "What kind of flavor do you want for this sandwich? Anyone can make it, it requires no skill at all. Are you trying to get me to praise you? Sorry, I can't bring myself to do it."

Shen Chengyan was a little embarrassed.

Jiang Yu took a bite and said to him, "If you don't know how to cook, just ask your aunt to come over and cook. You really don't need to do all this for me. You were right about something last night: you've never forced me to do anything. I used to cook for you willingly, and I never complained that you couldn't cook."

Shen Chengyan's expression darkened further.

Jiang Yu continued, "You don't think I'd be so pretentious as to ask someone with a huge workload to take time out of their schedule to cook for me, do you? I'd look down on you for wasting your time making money in the kitchen. You'd be better off making more money and giving it to me."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Jiang Yu finished eating and went upstairs.

Before going upstairs, she said to Shen Mo, "Eat quickly, and come find me when you're done."

Shen Mo wanted to say that he had finished eating, but after looking at his father, he silently sat down again.

After Jiang Yu left, he stood up from his chair, patted his father's shoulder to comfort him, and said, "It's okay, Mom doesn't like it, but I do."

Shen Chengyan sighed and patted his son's chubby face: "Your mother doesn't dislike eating it, she just doesn't like me cooking it for her."

"Then you should try your best to make her like you."

"What if she never likes it?"

"Then keep trying, keep working hard, and one day she'll like you."

Shen Chengyan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "You're right."

**

As Jiang Yu lay on the floor looking under the bed, Shen Mo came up.

He mimicked Jiang Yu, lying on the floor and peering into the darkness under the bed. "What are you looking at?"

"What am I looking for?" Jiang Yu had already searched the entire house, but still couldn't find it.

"Then what are you looking for?"

Jiang Yu is looking for a ring, a wedding ring.

She told Shen Chengyan that she had sold the wedding ring, but in reality, she had thrown it away.

The day she returned from the hospital, looking at her empty home, she was filled with resentment. When she got into bed, she casually took off her wedding ring and threw it away forcefully.

The bedroom was too big; she must have thrown such a small ring somewhere out of the way.

It seems this was destined.

Jiang Yu put away her phone, let me search, and sat up straight.

Shen Mo also sat up.

Jiang Yu suddenly reached out to him and forcefully pushed him away.

Shen Mo fell backward and crashed to the ground, stunned.
