Chapter 835: Delicate heart stomped on
" Dong Dong!"" All right don't get so excited," Yu Dong raised her hand and then stopped them right on time as she held her hand out and then said, " Give me that sheet, let me see what you have written on it."
Though she was rather excited about Shen Li's pregnancy, she could only calm down since this was what Shen Li wanted to hide it. She looked at Shen Li's belly and sighed, this child really knew how to choose the correct timing, among the four mers, she was really looking forward to Shen Li and Ye Liu's pregnancy and now that one of them was finally pregnant, she could only suffer in silence while keeping this great news to herself.
Yu Dong sighed again and looked at Shen Li's belly with a belly full of complaints, she wanted to rub it in the face of their neighbour Madam Chou but —— if not for the fact that she was almost thirty years old inside her body, she would have thrown a tantrum.
Shen Li also knew why Yu Dong was looking at him like she had wronged her greatly and blushed with guilt. He knew that Yu Dong was the one who was working hard to make him pregnant, from digging yams in the mountain to bringing him all sorts of tonics and taking care of his health, she did almost everything only to make sure that he will be able to conceive and now that he was finally with a child, they needed to hide it from the world.
In fact, even he was aggrieved. Though no one said anything to him now that Yu Dong was the head of the village and owned everything from the mountain to the shore of the village, he was really annoyed with the number of times when elderly mers stopped him and told him that he should make Yu Dong understand that she needed to give way to another mer taking place of her official husband since he could not give her a child.
Every time he heard the villagers say something like this he felt like someone had slapped him in the face, he was Yu Dong's official husband and he loved his wife to bits. If possible he wanted to keep her tied next to him with his waist belt, even the time that he shared with her seemed like it was not much and yet those elderly mers wanted him to give his position as the official husband and even welcome another mer. Why don't they just fly to heaven?
As he thought about it, he could not help but curse his mother and sister.
' What sticky ghosts they are, they did not let me live peacefully when I was living with them and now that I am married they were not allowing me to live in peace either!' As Shen Li grumbled, he walked inside the room where he had put away the promise sheet and then went to look for it in the cabinet.
Once he found it, he walked back into the living but before handing the promise sheet to Yu Dong, he said, " If you tear it, then I will not talk to you."
Yu Dong was so amused by his words that she wanted to smack him like he did last night. He was daring enough not to only make her drunk but even have her sign that document and now that she was asking him to hand the document he was daring enough to threaten her.
" If you want to be grounded as well, then you can keep threatening me," Yu Dong sneered as she snatched the sheet from Shen Li and started reading everything clearly.
Though she had a good idea what was written on the sheet, she was still a bit bewildered by the things which were written on it by the four mers. She had no idea whether to call them fools or to say that they were really naive, they had such a good opportunity and yet they wasted it like that but then her gaze fell on the words that said that she will agree to play a violent act with Shen Li and curled a side of her lips as she said, " Li, I didn't know that you were such a sucker for pain."
Shen Li blushed since he knew what Yu Dong was hinting at and said in a rough voice, " I meant that you need to act as if I am not favoured, it will be hard on you but please treat me a bit rough for the time being."
" This is the very first time, I am hearing such a fascinating request," Yu Dong muttered as she looked at the promise, generally mers wished to be treated kindly and yet her husband was asking to be treated roughly. What a hassle.
" You have no idea how my mother and sister are, the second they catch a whiff of money even if you beat them to death, they will still crawl their way to the yamen and make a fuss that you hurt them such that they will be able to get some compensation from you," Shen Li tried to instil some sense of danger in Yu Dong. " And my sister used to be a thug, if we don't play it smart, she might try to do something." As he spoke he looked at the babies' room.
Yu Dong understood what he was trying to say and sighed," Fine, we will do it as you want but I do not have the patience to deal with them, if they leave me alone quickly, it will be better or else I will have to make use of my fists, I have other things to do rather than paying attention to them." As she spoke, she handed the sheet back to Shen Li and then said, " I am leaving for the town if they come looking for you, have Lang chase them away."
