Chapter 201: Ming Zi Stole His Wife

~8 min read 1,530 words

Such enviable best-friendship!

However, deep down, he was happy for his wife, because it is so difficult to be treated with sincerity in this world.

As long as Rongrong is happy, that is all that matters.

He even displayed his hospitality in a very gentlemanly manner, "Welcome to Haidao for a visit!"

Ming Zi looked over this legendary Songshan Island and spoke her mind, "It's only this small?"

Jiang Cheng:...

Ming Zi linked her arm with Si Rong's and spoke to her, "Let me tell you something funny. Just now, looking at your island from the boat, it was floating on the sea, looking especially like it had been pulled out by a giant bird."

As soon as she finished speaking, she burst into laughter herself.

Si Rong had not heard such carefree laughter in a long time, and she could not help but laugh along.

Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng followed slowly behind them, pushing the two children, listening to the two women ahead giggling.

He loved watching Si Rong laugh like this.

Unfortunately, there were always things working against him.

Shen Lan was beaten.

It was at the end of training in the evening, just as he had entered the Junshuyuan and was taking a shortcut through the bamboo forest.

Just like that, he was pinned to the ground and punched again and again.

At first, he wanted to fight back; after all, the original body was also a soldier, and its physical fitness was still stronger than his previous one.

But the more he resisted, the harder the person hit him.

Shen Lan could not help but recall that he had once been beaten like this before, and that person was Jiang Cheng.

This man...

Before he could ask, the person who had come already announced himself, "Shen Lan, why is your memory so poor? Didn't I tell you to stay away from my wife?"

"So what if you had a Rebirth? You won't become any smarter, and you still have to be pinned to the ground by me and beaten."

Shen Lan was shocked inside; how could Jiang Cheng know about his Rebirth?

Could it be that Si Rong told him? But, is Si Rong not afraid of being treated as an anomaly?

Or have the feelings between those two already reached the point where they share everything?

Shen Lan was unwilling to believe the latter.

But now that Jiang Cheng also knew about his Rebirth, if Jiang Cheng had any malicious intentions, his situation was actually very dangerous.

Because his Rebirth was not quite the same as Si Rong's; Si Rong was reborn in her own physical body, so her flaws were much smaller than his.

"Stop hitting, stop hitting!"

Jiang Cheng stopped, but just as Shen Lan breathed a sigh of relief, his pupils suddenly widened.

His male parts were ruthlessly stepped on; the balls that had just been injured by Si Rong two days ago suffered a heavy blow once again.

"If I find out you dare to say one more word to my wife, I will kill you!"

The last thought Shen Lan had before passing out was, his male parts! Who would save his male parts!

Jiang Cheng strolled through the door.

Si Rong, wearing an apron in the kitchen, asked him, "Did you take out all the trash?"

"Mm, it's all taken care of," Jiang Cheng said in a low voice; he had taken care of all the trash that needed to be taken care of.

"Then go wash your hands and eat!"

Today, the guest took the initiative to tend the fire.

Ming Zi looked at Si Rong and could not stop clicking her tongue in admiration, "Look at this, three days apart and one must truly look at you with new eyes; you've almost become a virtuous wife and a good mother!"

When she tasted the stir-fried baby bok choy that Si Rong had made for her as a welcome dish, Ming Zi:...

She had always been blunt, "Rong, did you happen to throw in some bok choy while you were stir-frying salt?"

Si Rong:...

Could it be that she put in too much salt again? But she put in even more than this last time!

"It's a good thing I love you, otherwise I really couldn't swallow this."

Ming Zi endured it and took another bite.

Jiang Cheng:...

Hu Qian:...

Si Rong silently replaced the stir-fried baby bok choy in front of Ming Zi with another dish.

During the meal, Ming Zi did not forget to interact with her godson and goddaughter.

"Juzi, your mom's cooking is this!" She gave a thumbs up.

Si Rong:...

She had long been accustomed to Ming Zi's way of speaking, but Jiang Cheng was not; he felt that his wife's stir-fried Xiao Bai cai had improved quite a bit today, much lighter than last time.

"To each their own; I think it's quite delicious!"

He took the opportunity during the meal to profess his love.

Wife, look at me more; the love I profess is much more advanced than Ming Zi's exaggerated praise.

"Do you like eating salt?" Ming Zi asked him in surprise, "No wonder you seem to have turned darker."

Jiang Cheng:...

Is this kind of indiscriminate verbal attack really okay?

"As long as it's a dish made by my wife, I like to eat it whether it's salty or bland," he said sullenly.

Ming Zi raised an eyebrow, "That is the difference between you and me; only speaking the truth can help people improve."

She picked up a third bite of the stir-fried baby bok choy Si Rong had made, "I'll just critique it up to here for today."

She pushed the remaining large portion of the plate of greens toward Jiang Cheng, "You like salty food, these are a reward for you."

Then she said with a straight face, "Rongrong, I'll be waiting to eat your improved work tomorrow."

Si Rong was full of confidence at this moment, "Mm, I will definitely use less salt tomorrow!"

She even silently repeated "use less salt" three times in her heart.

Jiang Cheng:...

He was in a state of disarray.

Ming Zi had stolen his wife's heart.

By the time it was time to sleep, this feeling was even stronger, as his wife proposed that she wanted to sleep with Ming Zi tonight.

It turned out the room his wife had tidied up earlier was for him.

At night, the two women lay on one bed and talked for half the night.

They started talking from their university days.

"By the way, Cui Lili got a divorce. When she remarried, I gave a hundred yuan as a gift, and I also gave a hundred on your behalf."

"I'll have to give that gift money back to you later. Wasn't her relationship with her husband quite good before? To think they just divorced like that."

"Marriage is like a besieged fortress; what you see is only what others want you to see. The reasons behind it are only known to the parties involved."

It was rare for Ming Zi to say such serious words. Si Rong had just nodded in agreement when she heard her say again, "By the way, Li Xuan is also on her second marriage—no, wait, I think it's her third."

"The law issued new regulations, pyramid schemes are illegal, and that fat man doesn't want her anymore. But Li Xuan should have learned to be smart now; she has more than one man in her hands."

Si Rong:...

"But it's really a pity about that child Shen Yuan. She was so small and obedient back then. How did she get raised by Li Xuan to be like this now? She married someone who was involved in pyramid schemes with Li Xuan, and he looks at least ten times her age."

"Everyone has their own fate; perhaps her fate is just like this."

Seeing that there was no look of sadness in her eyes, Ming Zi stopped bringing it up, "Yeah, after Shen Lan died, the mother and daughter completely let themselves go."

At this moment, Si Rong was very hesitant about whether to tell Ming Zi about Shen Lan's Rebirth.

Having been together for so many years and having experienced so many things, she trusted Ming Zi in her heart.

But Ming Zi had always been blunt and carefree; knowing might not be a good thing for her.

"I also went to the Si Family to see your uncle and aunt, as well as your Xiao Bai. They are all doing quite well."

Ming Zi visiting them wasn't entirely because of Si Rong. Of course, half of it was for Rongrong, but more of it was because Si's father and Si's mother had given her a lot of help when she was young.

She visited them every so often, which also allowed her to have a clear conscience.

"Thank you, A-Zi," Si Rong felt that what they had was no longer just friendship, but also family affection.

"Having said so much, how are things between you and Shen Qinghe now?"
