Chapter 228 - The Mafia King Questions Lihua\'s Orientation

Lihua facepalmed.

Really...Uncle\'s family really likes to keep their silence. ??

Her brow twitched. "You all need a different sort of conversation for that. Showing concern is not so difficult. But back to the topic, there is no hint at all why they are so distant? Nothing at all?"

Jiang Ruiling wondered if she should speak her mind. "I have a thought, but I may be completely wrong."

"Oh tell, tell!" She beamed. "Maybe we can figure something out!"

"It will make you uncomfortable."

She furrowed her brows. "Why me?"

"It\'s related to my cousin. There might be a slight chance that sister-in-law might like cousin Wei?"

Lihua coughed hard. "R-really?" She looked at her, speechless.

"I mean she was supposed to marry cousin Wei in the first place. Maybe she had feelings for him. But he declined."

"But Jiang Lanying wasn\'t forced, right?"

"I cannot say that. How she agreed for bro and what happened in her family when cousin Wei declined this marriage is their internal matter. Maybe she didn\'t want to marry bro, but her family urged her to and she couldn\'t reject it?"

Lihua scratched her chin.

Is it really that case?

She never really saw her act differently around Wei.

"So you think that Jiang Li might have realized this and that\'s why he is so distant towards her?"

Jiang Ruiling said, "Possibly. But like I said, it could be way off the mark. There is a realy slim chance."

"I see...but how could I help here?" She asked. "As far as I understand, the only thing that can sort this out is to have proper communication. It\'s really important for a husband and wife, otherwise the problem won\'t ever be solved. Just assuming things will get us nowhere."

Jiang Weiyuan said, "Li doesn\'t listen to us. He just wants us to leave their marriage alone."

She frowned. She thought for a moment and then said, "Okay! I will do what I can! I think the best way is to create chances for them to have a conversation. I don\'t think that they want this current status quo to remain between them. But something is stopping them from breaking it either."

She grinned. "We just have to force them out of their comfort zones. Hoho! I will do that for sure! Just watch me."

Lihua stepped in her room when she suddenly felt her wrist pulled behind.

She gasped and looked behind. Then she sighed in relief. "Oh it\'s you Wei. I thought that…"

Wei\'s dark gaze silently stared at her, making her feel goosebumps crawl on her.

"You thought what?" His gaze dimmed and his voice was aggrieved as he spoke.

Ah? Why is my hubby looking so sad?

"You thought that it would be Ruiling?"

Lihua widened her eyes. "Why will I think of her?"

Wei heavily pursed his lips and showed her the most distressed face he could to look pitiful. "Why won\'t you? I got to know everything from Mingshen."

Her mouth twitched.

What did that evil doctor do now?

Wei showed his phone to her with a picture on it. Lihua took a glance and choked hard.

"T-this…"

It was the picture of Lihua pinning Ruiling on the bed in a \'compromising\' position.

Under the picture, the caption was -

\'Beware of your wife\'s lesbian tendency. Keep a watch on her. She might soon leave you.\'

!!!

Yang Mingshen! What the hell is with this message!?

She was so angry that she wanted to fly to the Yang mansion and strangle that psycho doctor.

Wei had a hurt expression on his face. "Why are you two like that on the same bed? You cannot like her and neither can she like you. I am your husband."

Lihua coughed. "Wei. It\'s really not like that...That idiot Mingshen is just joking haha…"

Wei didn\'t buy that.

"My wife is in the same bed with my cousin in an intimate position. It isn\'t a joke to me."

"..."

"Wei...I-I don\'t bend that way. See? I married a man, right? You? And Ruiling loves Shen Yang too. A MAN. So…"

Wei pursed his lips. "Feelings can change anytime. I didn\'t like you seeing so close. How did that happen anyway? You were fine when I was out with Renshu."

"That…"

"Then how did you end up like that?"

"Um-"

"Did Ruiling attack you?" He coldly asked.

"No."

Her answer left him even more distraught. "So you…"

Lihua widened her eyes. "No, no, no! Heavens no!"

"You don\'t like me anymore?" Wei bit his lip. His gaze shone in a misty hue as if he suffered the greatest tragedy of his life.

"Lixue, I cannot live without you. I don\'t accept this."

Lihua\'s mouth twitched. Then she burst into laughter. "Hahaha, Wei you are so cute! You are really jealous of a woman and that too your cousin?" She clutched her stomach. "O-Oh God, you are really so adorable!"

She pinched his pouty cheeks. He looked at her, trying to gauge her reaction. "So you two-"

"Really it\'s nothing. That evil doctor is having fun with you! You shouldn\'t believe what he says," she put her hands on her waist.

"I didn\'t want to. But the picture. You two seemed awfully close and comfortable."

"..."

"That was just a small part of a plan to fool Shi Ruomei and Wen Yaoting into thinking that Jiang Ruiling was really on the bed in a compromising position. So I just pushed her on the bed-" she bit her tongue as she realized that she told the truth by mistake.

Wei narrowed his eyes. "So you did initiate it...But you said no."

She nervously laughed. "Haha I-I mean...I pushed her but...but then we just f-fell so it was an accident too."

"But you just said you planned it to happen to fool them."

"..."

What is happening to my intelligence!?

"You never said to me that this is your plan too," he tilted his head.

Of course not or else you wouldn\'t have let me do it!

Wei said, "Now wifey has to be punished for lying to her hubby."
