Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Chapter 363: Chapter 363: Jiao Jiao, My Face Hurts

When they got home, Qin Jiao immediately went to the kitchen to boil some eggs. Seeing the bruise on Shen Yi’s face, Mr. Du and the others hurriedly asked what had happened, so Shen Yi recounted the day’s events at the department store.

Du Liya, who was nearby, was furious. "Those bastards! How dare they beat my Xiao Yi up like this? No, I can’t let this go. I’m going to find that mother and son and settle the score!"

Shen Yi quickly pulled his mom back, whispering, "Mom, there’s no need. I didn’t get the worst of it."

"Your face is all bruised! And you just said it was really hurting!"

"Well, I just wanted to make Jiao Jiao feel sorry for me."

Du Liya was stunned for a few seconds. Mr. Du, standing nearby, was the first to react. Stroking his beard, he chuckled and said, "Alright, Liya, don’t make a fuss. Xiao Jiao brought back a lot of fabric. It’s in that other room, go take a look. Xiao Yi, you and Xiao Jiao go on back to your room. The eggs she’s boiling should be ready by now."

"Okay!"

When Qin Jiao came out, she was carrying a bowl with several boiled eggs soaking in cool water. "Xiao Yi said his neck hurt," Mr. Du told her, "so I told him to go lie down in his room."

"Oh, I’ll go check on him. By the way, where’s Aunt Du?"

"Liya went to look at the dacron you brought back."

Qin Jiao hesitated for a moment, then decided to check on Shen Yi first. She could talk to Du Liya about making the clothes afterward.

Besides, the thought of designing, making, and selling clothes made Qin Jiao think of someone.

Still, she went to check on Shen Yi first.

Carrying the bowl of boiled eggs, Qin Jiao entered their small newlywed room. Shen Yi was lounging on the kang, propped up against the blankets, flipping through a book.

’In her past life, he’d also liked to read, but his demeanor was never so calm and relaxed. Instead, he would always be frowning, looking bitter and full of grievances, as if the entire world owed him something.’

’But not anymore.’

’His already handsome features, illuminated by the warm, orange light, looked even more gentle and affectionate.’ fгeewebnovёl.com

"Jiao Jiao!" Shen Yi’s eyes lit up the moment he saw her.

Qin Jiao hummed in response, walking over to the edge of the kang. She sat down and began to peel an egg. "Shen Yi," she said as she worked, "tomorrow, you should probably take Chen Sheng and visit some of the larger department stores. Your mom and I will make the rounds at the local schools. We need to try and sell an initial batch of clothes to get the factory up and running. Also, we need to talk to your mom later about some modifications to the designs."

"She’s your mom, too."

Qin Jiao pressed the freshly peeled egg against the bruise on his face. "You’re really pushing your luck, aren’t you?"

"I call your parents ’Mom’ and ’Dad’, but you won’t call mine..."

"Shen Yi!"

"Okay, okay, Jiao Jiao, I was wrong. My face hurts so much. I mean, that bastard Shen Feng... why’s he acting like such a lunatic?" Shen Yi quickly changed the subject, then added, "I finally understand how other people must have seen me in our past life."

Just like the looks everyone gave Shen Feng today.

Absurd. Contemptuous.

Qin Jiao said, "I think Shen Feng was influenced by Lin Nian. Then, on top of that, he found out ahead of time that his mother was the other woman, so he just couldn’t handle it. Also, there might be the ’forced plot’ element at play."

"Yeah, in our past life, he didn’t find out until much later. By the way, do you think Lin Nian will come looking for Shen Feng after she gets out of prison?"

’Lin Nian’s sentence wasn’t very long. With good behavior, she could probably be out in less than a year.’

Qin Jiao gently rolled the warm egg over the bruise on Shen Yi’s face. Her tone was level, yet completely certain. "Lin Nian will, one hundred percent, come looking for Shen Feng."
