Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Content to Be Worse Off Than Me

Cheng Su stormed out of the building with a belly full of anger and grievance, nearly bumping into someone. She stopped abruptly, and when she looked up, she saw Chen Shouwang and his wife.

Chen Shouwang was holding a travel bag in one hand and was supporting Hualing’s waist with the other. Upon seeing Cheng Su’s furious expression, he seemed somewhat surprised and a bit awkward, indescribably so.

As for Hualing, her complexion changed at the sight of Cheng Su.

Her gaze was complex, showing an indescribable irritation and a subtle sense of shame.

Indeed, during the days she went back to her parents’ house and waited for so long, she finally got to see Chen Shouwang and also learnt the ’truth’ he brought with him.

It turned out that Chen Shouwang’s distracted ways during that period were all because of a fan she had requested. For her request, he had taken out high-interest loans, which led to debt collectors hounding him, and he was forced to sell blood. Later, he had even borrowed money from Qi Taiguo’s family.

Only then did she realize so much had happened.

While she was angry, she also felt somewhat ashamed. She was completely oblivious and yet blamed him for not caring about her, not realizing it was all because of this.

Chen Shouwang’s admission of his faults prompted her to return home with him, but now, seeing Cheng Su, her mood shifted. The money Chen Shouwang had borrowed later was from Qi Taiguo, which meant it was borrowed from Cheng Su. This implied that Cheng Su knew all about their family’s affairs!

How embarrassing!

Previously, she had been so proud and disdainful, and she feared that Cheng Su must have laughed at her behind her back countless times.

Now, just thinking about this made her feel her face growing hot.

However, upon seeing them, Cheng Su just nodded indifferently, asked if they were back and, not waiting for an answer, she briskly walked away.

Hualing and her husband were a bit stunned.

”Did you see? Cheng Su looked quite upset, as if she was angry. Do you think she had a fight with Commander Qi?” Hualing was the first to recover, thoughts of gossip flooding her face, which had been dull due to Chen Shouwang, now lit up with some excitement.

People are such that they can’t stand others having it better than themselves. Seeing the person they envy fare worse than them brings a sense of satisfaction, and Hualing was just such a person!

”That, can’t be, their marriage seems quite good!” Chen Shouwang hesitated a bit.

Hualing scoffed lightly and said, ”Which couple doesn’t fight? You really don’t know what kind of temper Cheng Su has?”

Chen Shouwang just smiled and said nothing.

When they went upstairs, they saw Qi Taiguo coming out of his door, and Chen Shouwang greeted him.

Qi Taiguo, taken aback upon seeing Hualing, nodded, ”You’re back!” and then he left.

The husband and wife were always in sync; their responses were the same.

As soon as they entered their home, Hualing couldn’t wait to say, ”They must have had a fight, Commander Qi’s face didn’t look good at all!”

Chen Shouwang responded with a noncommital ”Hmm.”

”Wonder what they fought about,” Hualing murmured to herself, then glancing at Chen Shouwang, she coughed and went into the room. She came out with money in hand, ”Here!”

Chen Shouwang was taken aback.

”I don’t want to owe Cheng Su any money, lest I have to live at her mercy. You return this money to them, and let’s consider this matter settled!” Hualing said, chin raised.

Always considering money a priority, Hualing was unexpectedly offering money to help him repay debts. Chen Shouwang was deeply moved and hugged her tightly, ”Wife, you’re the best!”

Hualing scolded lightly, ”What now, broad daylight and just now you realize I’m good?”

Chen Shouwang nodded, then shook his head, ”No, my wife is always good!”

Hualing snorted, pointed at his forehead with her index finger and said, ”So long as you know I’m good then it’s fine. But from now on, you better not hide anything like this from me again, nothing at all, or I’ll seriously divorce you!”

Chen Shouwang’s eyes flickered for a moment, but he quickly smiled and raised his hand in promise, ”I definitely won’t hide anything from you!”

Only then did Hualing, humming a tune, seem satisfied as she went to unpack their luggage.
