Chapter 159

Thousands upon thousands of families are this warm; although great wealth and high status are far from them, they are not lacking in the sweetness of life.

The more Qiao Muting listened, the more he wanted to hear, "Did you like to hit people when you were little?"

Shu Xia blushed instantly, "The times you've seen me hit people were actually special circumstances. Lin Qi and Lin Miao provoked me first. In the past, I wanted to be a family with them and could endure it for the sake of peace, but now, they are worthless in my eyes. If I don't teach them a lesson, they will only push their luck."

If it weren't for a society ruled by law, she could do even more excessive things.

After all, her experiences in her previous life made her hate this family to the bone.

Qiao Muting naturally noticed Shu Xia's hatred for the Lin Family, and a smile touched his thin lips, "They bullied you, so they are indeed courting death. The Lin Family will go bankrupt before long; is that what you want?"

"Of course, that is what I want." Shu Xia did not hide her intentions at all.

She had no intention of maintaining a "white lotus" persona in front of Qiao Muting.

In this life, she would never forgive those people in the Lin Family.

On the day they registered their marriage, she had already made things perfectly clear, telling Qiao Muting not to cooperate with the Lin Family anymore and to withdraw all the help previously given to the Lin Family.

She was waiting, waiting for the Lin Family to fall from heaven and properly taste the flavor of being in hell.

Qiao Muting smiled faintly, "Alright."

Seeing that Qiao Muting was very easy to talk to today, Shu Xia felt a stir in her heart. Could it be that he wanted to terminate the agreement early and was releasing some goodwill in advance?

Just so that when they divorced, there would be no worries at all.

"Mr. Qiao, there is something I would like to discuss with you first," Shu Xia said again.

Hearing the words "Mr. Qiao," Qiao Muting frowned, "Mm, go ahead."

"I didn't tell my family about my secret marriage, but after I met my older brother last time, he sensed it. I could only tell him that I was married. He has been wanting to meet the person I married during this time. I know you can't go see him, so I plan to find someone online to help me fend him off," Shu Xia said.

The internet is advanced, and you can place an order for any service you want.

Finding someone with good acting skills would certainly not let Shu Xuan notice anything.

The space between Qiao Muting's brows seemed to furrow even deeper.

Shu Xia couldn't quite figure out what Qiao Muting was thinking for a moment.

"If he wants to see me, you just arrange a time. As long as the media doesn't know about our marital relationship, it's fine," Qiao Muting said in a deep voice.

Shu Xia was very surprised, "Really?"

"Mm."

Things went more smoothly than Shu Xia had expected; Qiao Muting was truly too easy to talk to today.

"Do you need me to help you massage your head?"

Qiao Muting had originally wanted to bring this up, but thinking of his previous refusal, he figured that if he asked for her help now, she certainly wouldn't agree.

His heart felt a bit more joyful, "Alright, thank you."

Shu Xia placed the spare pillow from the side onto her lap, "Lie here."

Qiao Muting looked at Shu Xia, then looked at the pillow on Shu Xia's lap; some emotion seemed to be budding in his eyes.

Unknowingly.

Qiao Muting fell asleep under Shu Xia's gentle kneading and pressing.

When he woke up again, it was already six o'clock the next morning.

He had no dreams all night.

The moment Qiao Muting opened his eyes, he felt a bit dazed, as if he had had a dream.

His gaze fell on the face of Shu Xia, who was still sleeping beside him; there was a faint smile on her porcelain-white face.
