Chapter 233 - 89: Shen Yugang’s Gift, Your Wife Doesn’t Want You Anymore

Zhou Jiawen thought for a moment. "I haven’t seen a movie in ages. How about we go see one this afternoon?"

’Actually, as long as I can be with Jiang Li, I don’t care what we do or where we go.’

Jiang Li made an OK sign. "Sure, no problem."

Zhou Jiawen glanced at Shen Yuchu, who was seriously digging into his food, and pouted. "We’re not taking the two brothers."

Jiang Li paused for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, just the two of us then."

’If I didn’t know what was up with Zhou Jiawen before, it’s clear now. Shen Yuchu must have made her angry.’

She gestured with her chin toward the bowl in front of Zhou Jiawen. "Eat first. We’ll head out after we’re done."

Zhou Jiawen nodded obediently and said, "Okay."

Jiang Li turned back to eat, but ended up planting a kiss right on Shen Yanzhi’s cheek. She couldn’t help but blush. "What are you doing!"

Shen Yanzhi narrowed his eyes. "I should be the one asking what you’re doing. Instead of eating, what were you whispering to Xiao Zhou about?

You were so quiet I couldn’t hear a thing.

Jiang Li answered without holding anything back. "Wenwen and I are going to see a movie later."

Shen Yanzhi instinctively glanced at Jiang Li’s belly and asked doubtfully, "Can you go to the movies in your condition?"

’When he was doing his research, he seemed to recall reading that pregnant women shouldn’t go to movie theaters because it could affect the baby.’

Jiang Li snorted. "What, are you telling me I can’t go?"

’Who was she going to the movies for, anyway?’

’If Shen Yuchu hadn’t made Zhou Jiawen angry, she wouldn’t be going at all.’

Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi sighed helplessly and relented. "I didn’t say you couldn’t."

’If he’d dared to say no today, this little tyrant of his would have gotten angry again.’

"Then can I apply to be your personal ATM?"

Jiang Li shook her head. "No."

Shen Yanzhi started to say, "But—"

Jiang Li pressed her index finger to Shen Yanzhi’s lips. "No buts. Today is girls’ time for me and Wenwen."

Shen Yanzhi’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He relented again. "Then you have to take Xu and the others with you."

Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. "Of course."

Around the table, Jiang Bowen and Shen Yugang were drinking and chatting, with Jiang Manshu chiming in every now and then.

Shen Yuchu was focused on eating. Zhou Jiawen, probably thinking about the movie they were going to see, ate with a light and cheerful air.

Besides putting food on Jiang Li’s plate, Shen Yanzhi was also peeling shrimp and picking out fish bones for her, taking a bite himself every now and then.

Only Jiang Li was enjoying herself to the fullest.

During the meal, people came up to toast Shen Yugang, and before long his face was flushed red, as if he were wearing blush.

After they finished eating, Zhou Jiawen looked at Jiang Li with anticipation.

Seeing this, Jiang Li stood up, walked over to Jiang Manshu, and said, "Mom, Wenwen and I are going to go shopping for a bit. Do you want to come with us?"

Jiang Manshu waved her hand. "I’ll pass. You two go have fun."

With that, she took out her phone and transferred five million to both Jiang Li and Zhou Jiawen. "Here’s some spending money for you two. Don’t be afraid to use it."

Jiang Li didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. To think that of the ten million she had just sent a few hours ago, half of it had already come back to her.

Just as she was about to refuse, Jiang Manshu said, "If you don’t accept it, then don’t bother buying me anything in the future either."

’A blatant threat.’

’What else could she say?’

"Then thank you, Mom."

Jiang Manshu patted the back of Jiang Li’s hand. "Go on."

Jiang Li didn’t leave right away. Instead, she went to her half-drunk father, Jiang Bowen. "Dad, Wenwen and I are going to go wander around for a bit. I’ll have Ah Yan take you home later."

Jiang Bowen nodded dazedly. "Mhm, you go on."

Jiang Li shook her head with a helpless sigh. She wanted to tell Jiang Bowen to drink less, but it was a rare occasion for him. In the end, she returned to Shen Yanzhi’s side. "Keep an eye on my dad, and take him back to the hospital later."

Shen Yanzhi made an OK sign. "Don’t worry."

Jiang Li held her hand out to Zhou Jiawen. "Let’s go."

Zhou Jiawen immediately stood up, grinning as she linked her arm with Jiang Li’s. "Alrighty!"

Seeing this, Shen Yuchu asked blankly, "Wait, where are you going?"

Zhou Jiawen snorted. "None of your business."

With that, she turned and left, completely ignoring Shen Yuchu.

Shen Yuchu blinked in confusion, pointed at Zhou Jiawen’s retreating back, and asked Shen Yanzhi, who was standing beside him, "What does she mean by that?"

"Your wifey doesn’t want you anymore~"
