Chapter 464: Trouble incoming
Yu Dong didn't want to get entangled with the mers, the last time she was rude to one of the mers in the village, he threatened her with his life, saying that she was being too casual with him. It caused a lot of rumours to fly around the entire village, fortunately, one of the women of the village witnessed the incident and cleared Yu Dong's name, given that her husband and son were allowed to work in the strawberry fields of Yu Dong.
She was worried that something like the last time will happen again, so instead of handling the mers by herself, she left Fang Ch in charge. Fang Chi to has been suffering a lot ever since he got pregnant, from the day his pregnancy started to show mers of the village started to throw themselves at his wife, their reasons were simple he couldn't satisfy Yu Dong at the moment with the other three go, Yu Dong will slip up sooner or later, though Yu Dong promised that she wouldn't do something like that no matter what and wouldn't sleep with another mer, Fang Chi was still storing a lot of anger in his heart.
So what if he was pregnant? It wasn't as if he has gone to the high heavens. Even if he couldn't satisfy his wife and she wanted to take another mer, it was up to her. Since when did it become the responsibility of these mers to come and offer themselves on the threshold of their house? Were they trying to joke with him?
Fang Chi stepped forward and then with a cold and fake smile, he looked at the three mers who stopped them. " If you are that worried then you should go and ask the village head to do something about it, my wife is not the village head nor the elder of the village, it's good enough that she can protect her family where will she get the time to protect others?"
Then ignoring the ugly expressions on the faces of the mers, he dragged Yu Dong away without letting either of the mers say anything.
The three mers watched them go and their faces turned even more sullen.
" Ptui, he really thinks he is all that just because he married Yu Dong," one of the mers who took the lead in the plan of seducing Yu Dong spat on the ground. " Who doesn't know that Yu Dong simply married him because she was forced into a corner, why is it that he can marry her like that but when it comes to us we can't do that?"
The second mer patted the mer on the shoulder and said, " You don't have to get angry like that, he might be able to rein in his wife for now but wait till his pregnancy advance let's see whether or not he will be able to keep his wife under the palm of his hands or not."
" That's right, we just need to wait for the right time," the third mer chimed up, the Empire allowed the women to marry as many mers as they wanted given they paid the taxes on time, and since Yu Dong was rich enough to pay them, the three mers weren't bothered by each other, it was good if all three of them could marry Yu Dong and if they couldn't then that was their fate.
" Are you angry?" Yu Dong asked Fang Chi watching him drag her to their home with his lips set in a thin line. " I didn't even look at them."
" Humph, you are really good, day in and day out mers fall in front of you hoping that you will catch them in their arms," Fang Chi snorted as he flicked Yu Dong's wrist away. " You must be feeling really proud aren't you?"
" I am not," Yu Dong at once refused, there was no way she was going to admit that something like this was stroking her ego, if she did then she would be kicked out of the house. If that happened then where will she go and cry?
Fang Chi scoffed, now that his pregnancy was slowly advancing, his emotions were getting the best of him. A moment ago, he was feeling angry but now he was looking at the ground with reddened eyes and said, " Why are you so good? I am afraid that if I don't pay attention you will be snatched away."
Seeing his reddened eyes, Yu Dong almost dropped Xiao Hua to the ground but then she straightened up and caught him on time before softly coaxing Fang Chi as she said, " What are you talking about, I am only good to you …why will I be nice to those mers I don't even know?"
"It's good that you are not," said Fang Chi before raising his head and glaring at Yu Dong. "I will lock you out of the house if I catch you having affair with those annoying mers, they are nothing but trouble, you understand?"
"I understand, I understand." She has long understood that the mers were even more unreasonable than pregnant women, if she was to say something wrong then Fang Chi will really have her thrown out of the house. Then she hitched Xiao Hua up on her back and said, " Do you want something to eat when we go back home?"
Fang Chi sniffed before answering in a low voice, " Crab Rangoon and braised carp."
" Okay, it's good that I caught so many crabs then," said Yu Dong with a smile as she walked towards their house and waited for Fang Chi to open the door. " I will go and buy some carp——"
" I want them freshly caught," he said without even waiting for Yu Dong to finish. " Go and catch them for me."
Yu Dong's mouth dropped as she looked at him in disbelief and said, " Are you for real?"
Placing the lock inside the door, Fang Chi turned to Yu Dong and said with a smile, " Didn't you say that you are especially good to me? Then show it to me."
