How I Tamed My Wolfish Husband Back in 80s-Chapter 150 - 152: Obvious_1

Zhu Changsheng said in a deep voice, "Let’s talk at home!"

Yan Xiaoyu had thought for several days to come up with this strategy, she wasn’t willing to give up easily, "Are you even a man? He harassed your wife, and you..."

Qin Jin roared angrily, "Bullshit! Ugly freak! Don’t blame me for getting physical if you keep spouting nonsense without evidence!"

Li Qiao continued, "We’re trying to reason with you, and all you do is act shamelessly. You know very well who the true harasser is. Now, apologize in front of everyone for defaming my partner, and I won’t pursue it. Otherwise, once I file the lawsuit, you won’t even have a chance to regret it!"

Yan Xiaoyu tried to make an excuse, "I...."

"What about you? Don’t think you can bully us newcomers just because you’re an old resident here with a steady job. The eyes of the public are clear, don’t think you can use your connections to bully us," Li Qiao said sternly.

Yan Xiaoyu was at a loss for words.

Zhu Changsheng knew Yan Xiaoyu. If she was in the right, she would talk like a machine gun—why was she so silent now?

He was afraid that things would escalate out of control, so he dragged Yan Xiaoyu away, defeated.

The neighbors also took their leave one after another.

Qin Jin closed the door again and began cursing, "Damn it, she actually dared to frame me! I’ll show her tomorrow if I don’t bring my brothers over to her place and smash their pans."

Li Qiao smiled and said, "You cannot do that!" Let’s wait until I’ve written the lawsuit."

Qin Jin’s tone softened in the face of Li Qiao, "If they receive our lawsuit, will they say we’re making a fuss over nothing?"

Li Qiao: "Isn’t the law revised for the use of ordinary people?" It’s just that the process is too troublesome. Two weeks ago, it took over two weeks after I had written the lawsuit before Feng Bing was taken away, but the sentencing was quick afterward.

This time she would prepare the evidence better and get more neighbors to leave their fingerprints.

She would make sure Yan Xiaoyu had no place to cry!

Just do it.

The next day, which was the weekend, Li Qiao wrote the lawsuit early in the morning and had the neighbors provide fingerprints as evidence.

City neighbors are not as easy to talk to as those in the countryside; fearing trouble, they were unwilling to provide fingerprints.

Qin Jin’s anger flared up, "City people are so cold! They clearly know I was wronged, yet they protect that damned woman." He longed even more to make a name for himself, to be feared by everyone.

Li Qiao consoled him, "It’s okay, I have other ways." She changed the subject, "I heard from a colleague that there’s a beef noodle place on the street that’s supposed to be excellent. Let’s not cook lunch today; we’ll go there and then you can accompany me shopping and to the movies."

Qin Jin’s expression softened, "Mhm."

The two walked to the noodle shop and ordered two bowls of beef noodles.

The beef was plentiful and tender.

The noodle soup was topped with a pinch of vibrant green onion, attractive and appetizing.

She added a spoonful of chili and began to eat.

"Boss, a bowl of beef noodles," a familiar voice commanded Li Qiao’s attention.

It was Yan Xiaoyu.

Talk about a small world.

Yan Xiaoyu taunted, "Weren’t you going to sue me? Why aren’t you doing it? Pervert!"

Qin Jin’s forehead showed bulging veins, he clenched his fist and bowed his head to continue eating his noodles.

Thinking he was intimidated, Yan Xiaoyu loudly told the people around that Qin Jin was a pervert, trying to force himself on her, causing the people nearby to point and whisper.

Li Qiao retorted, "You’re the pervert! You’re a female pervert!" What kind of woman declares in public that she was forced by someone else? If such a thing really happened, she would have been depressed and shut herself away, right? Shameless woman!

Yan Xiaoyu: "You’re the female pervert... ah!"

Qin Jin suddenly stood up and poured the remaining soup from his finished noodles over Yan Xiaoyu’s head.

The hot soup and chili dripped along her hair onto her body and trousers.

Yan Xiaoyu screamed, "Help! It’s burning me! It’s burning me to death!"

Qin Jin’s face was icy cold as he said bleakly, "Aren’t you not dead yet?! If you dare to spread rumors about me being a pervert again, I’ll douse you like this every time I see you."

Yan Xiaoyu, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, was silenced when Qin Jin showed his seriousness; she left without eating her noodles, chased by the owner demanding payment for the noodles.

Li Qiao internally cursed her for being despicable and then soothed Qin Jin, who was fuming with anger.

She waited until his expression returned to normal before leaving the noodle shop with him.

The two had a great time shopping and watching movies.

After the movie ended.

Qin Jin was in high spirits, "I know there’s a big river nearby where we can fish. Let’s catch a couple and make fish soup at home."

Li Qiao was reluctant to go, "It just rained yesterday, the riverside must be slippery. Don’t fall in and be unable to climb back out."

Qin Jin: "Don’t worry, if you really fall in, I’ll save you."

After about half an hour, they arrived at the riverside.

Clusters of reeds caught Li Qiao’s attention, "Reed stems can be combed into strips for weaving."

Qin Jin laughed, "Always thinking about making money, you’re even more of a money-grubber than me."

Li Qiao bared his teeth, having been poor, he always thought about having more money at hand.

Qin Jin took off his shoes and waded into the river.

Li Qiao stayed on the bank to wait, noticing many crayfish sidling among the reeds. "Jin, there are lots of crayfish in the reeds."

Qin Jin replied, "Those critters aren’t easy to catch in the water, and they’re all shell, not much meat, not tasty. If you want shrimp, we can set a trap tonight and catch some river shrimp."

Li Qiao decided to go back home to get some line and a rod, then head to the market to ask for some chicken intestines to use for fishing.

Seeing Qin Jin swim to the middle of the river and dive, she figured he probably wouldn’t hear her, so she just left directly.

...

Qin Jin caught a big fish underwater and raised it with both hands in triumph, "Qiao... Where is he?" He couldn’t have slipped into a ditch, could he?

His heart skipped a beat, and he no longer cared about the fish.

He threw it ashore and observed the water’s surface.

Wherever there were bubbles, that’s where he searched for the person.

He frantically turned up empty-handed.

"Qiaoqiao! Qiaoqiao..."

Qin Jin swam to the middle of the river and searched several times without finding anyone; he felt utterly drained.

He choked on a few mouthfuls of water, came ashore to catch his breath, and after less than two minutes of rest, he resumed searching.

...

When Li Qiao returned with the tools for fishing crayfish, she saw Qin Jin sitting by the bank, his broad shoulders heaving.

She cocked her head curiously.

She could faintly make out the sound of sobs. Was he crying?

"Jin, what are you doing? You don’t have to cry just because you didn’t catch any fish," she said.

This was the first time she had seen a man cry—a big, tall guy crying like a woman.

Qin Jin turned around abruptly—the girl, in her bright red dress, was standing there lively, and it felt as if the hollow pain in his heart was suddenly filled.

Li Qiao spotted the tears on his face and burst into laughter.

Qin Jin was about to go up and hug her when he saw what was in her hands and became furious, thinking how she went off to catch crayfish without saying a word to him! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

It made him search in the river for ages.

He almost lost half his life!

But he was too embarrassed to admit he was crying for a false alarm, so he cooled his expression, "My eyes got confused in the water! Cry? What are you talking about?"

Li Qiao was skeptical, "Really?" If his eyes got confused, why were his shoulders shaking?

He’s obviously been crying!

Fine! She’ll give him some face and not expose him.

But she must tell her grandma when she gets home that he actually cried over not catching any fish.

...

Li Qiao tied the chicken intestines onto the nylon line and started fishing for crayfish.

Catching two or three at a time, she was thrilled.

Turning her head, she met Qin Jin’s intense gaze and felt a bit shy, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Worried you were gone," Qin Jin’s voice was hoarse.

Li Qiao laughed, "Pfft!" Why had he suddenly become so clingy? "Aren’t you supposed to be catching fish?"

Qin Jin’s gaze deepened, "Tired, don’t feel like catching anymore." After repeatedly diving to look for someone, now he felt completely drained, unable to even stand. He really wanted to tell her he had just thought she had fallen into the water.

But he didn’t want to see the triumphant look on her face when she’d find out the truth, her tail wagging so high it could reach the sky.

Li Qiao thought to herself, after last night’s exertion and no nap today, of course he’d be tired. Not knowing his limits, all worn out, serves him right! "Then you rest and watch me fish. In a bit, I’ll get a bucket of crayfish to take back, and I’ll make you some spicy crayfish to replenish your strength."

Qin Jin replied, "Yeah, I do need to replenish." He had indeed exhausted a lot of energy just now.
