Jiang Cong was completely exhausted after taking the little one to the amusement park and played the whole day.

Still, the little one was happily skipping around and showing no signs of tiring. “Uncle Cong, where should we go next?”

Downing half a bottle of mineral water in one gulp, Jiang Cong brushed of his sweat and panted, “Let’s... let’s go home, Young Master...”

How did the brat still have so much energy? Jiang Cong himself felt like he could die from fatigue.

Marriage is horror, having children even more so.

He felt sorry for President Li then.

It’s not easy being a father!

Meanwhile, the little one put his arms on his hips. “I’m not going home. I still want to ride a horsey!”

Jiang Cong scowled miserably. “Mercy, bro...”

“No!” The little one pouted, bursting into tears almost immediately. “Boo-hoo... I want to play! I just want to pay! Boo-hoo... I don’t care, I don’t care!”

His cries immediately drew an upset crowd.

“Let the child play. How can a big man like you be so stingy?”

“That’s right. Look, he’s giving the child grief.”

“It’s not like you’re poor from the way you dress. So unwilling to spend money for a child... he’s definitely a scumbag!”

‘Mother...’ Jiang Cong thought.

In the end, he brought the little one to ride the merry-go-round repeatedly.

The little one was more thrilled the more he played, while Jiang Cong, feeling terrible, threw up all over the ground. That was when he became even more determined to neither marry nor have children.

It was utterly miserable.

Ji Weixi wanted to go to the supermarket, and Li Shaoling accompanied her unconditionally.

She picked a whole pile of ingredients, along with some of the little one’s favorite strawberry yogurt before going to pay up at the counter.

“Ah, I forgot about getting soy sauce!” Ji Weixi told Li Shaoling when she suddenly remembered about it. “Wait for me here, I’ll be right back!”

Ji Weixi ran to the seasoning corner, chose carefully for a moment and decided she wanted the soy sauce on the topmost shelf.

It was too tall, and she was standing on the tip of her toes for quite some time.

That was when she suddenly sensed someone behind her who was pungent with sweat.

She did not pay too much heed since it was normal for many people to be around the supermarket.

“Can’t get it? May I help you?” A man’s voice spoke from behind.

Ji Weixi turned to find a man around forty, dressed in rags and having a face full of wrinkles. He was standing very near from her rear, and his smile made her uncomfortable.

“Thank you.” Ji Weixi smiled, intent on gracefully skipping a side and maintain a distance from him.

He quickly reached out with his arm over his head and took down one bottle of soy sauce.

Just when Ji Weixi wanted to take it from him, she suddenly felt her buttocks being touched.

She froze entirely and turned to glare at him in disbelief.

The man was actually smiling at her as if nothing happened. “Miss, your soy sauce.”

Miss? What the hell!

Ji Weixi swung a palm at him immediately.

Slap—

The slap caught the man defenseless, and he dropped the soy sauce on the floor as his entire head swung away.

“What happened?!” The shop attendant responsible for that zone quickly rushed to them at the sound, and glared at the two of them when she saw the broken bottle of soy sauce on the floor.

The man quickly exclaimed, pointing at Ji Weixi agitatedly. “It’s her! She did it!”

Ji Weixi sneered. “The CCTV would have recorded that you were holding the soy sauce.”

However, the man cleverly dashed out of the zone of racks and started shouting, “Everyone! Someone was trying to entice me!”

Funny. action

Nothing could get more disgusting than that!

“You know very well who was trying to take advantage here,” Ji Weixi said cold. “Should we go for a look at the security room? Do you dare to do that?”

He definitely wouldn’t!

Nonetheless, the man stubbornly refused to yield and was so bent on framing her that he sat on the floor and started to cry loudly. “Help! Come, look! I just wanted to buy groceries and go home, but this woman wanted me... she even said a hundred bucks per touch! Look at me, I’m already so old and married... how could I do such a thing!”

Somehow, his tears were quite infectious and many onlookers seemed to believed him.

Moreover, Ji Weixi did have alluring looks, which made many women gesturing her and cursing at her in envy and agitation.

“So shameless!”

“Don’t you even know what you look like?”

“How dare you try something like that in public!”

Everyone was aiming their weapons at Ji Weixi. She clenched her fists at her sides.

She glared at the geezer who was still acting pitiful, desiring nothing more than to kick him to death. “How revolting,” she seethed, “Playing the sympathy card at that age!”

Even so, this appeared not to be the first time that the old man did this. Rubbing off his tears, he even pretended to earnestly dissuade her, “Lady, I know you don’t have money... but you shouldn’t do this! You’re still young; you should find honest work!”

The crowd became even more agitated at those words. “No fear, old chap! We have many eyes here. We’ll see if she dares to go wild!”

“That’s right! You don’t have to be afraid. All of us are witnesses!”

Witnesses? It’s as if there were not enough repulsive people around.

All of them were simply going with the flow, believing only what they wanted to hear—Ji Weixi could talk until she lost her vocal cords and they would still never believe her.

Would you bite a dog who bit you?

Never try to talk to idiots!

Moreover, Li Shaoling was waiting for her, and nitpicking with such nasty people would be a waste of time.

Ji Weixi was about to turn and leave when the shop attendant stopped her and said in a very unfriendly tone, “Please pay for the soy sauce you broke!”

She kept impassive and coldly said, “I’m sorry but it has nothing to do with me.”

She was taken advantage of, and she still had to pay? How saintly did they take her for?

However, the attendant quickly pointed at her nose and roared, “Why are you so shameless, lady?!”

Ji Weixi, utterly infuriated, was about to let loose when an infinitely cold voice spoke.

“Who are you calling shameless?”

The attendant was about to answer, only to look up and find the man’s dark look and icy gaze, distinctly emanating a paralyzing coldness and an arrogance as if he stood above the world.

Frightened, she choked on her words.

Ji Weixi had did not felt much aside from irritation over the whole incident. Even so, all her grief overflowed when she saw Li Shaoling for some reason, and she wanted to cry.

When had she become so weak?

He watched as she bit her lower lip, the circles around her eyes going red in full grievance.

Li Shaoling glared sideways at the attendant with a face full of disgust. “As fat as a pig. Just die.”

“You...!” The attendant was humiliated, but could not even muster a word of retort.

“Who else was cursing you?”

Ji Weixi pointed at the woman who was pushing her trolley away, ready to flee.

Li Shaoling did not hide his mocking smile at all. “As black as a gas tank. So ugly! Anyone who sees you would want to blind themselves.”

The woman promptly exploded, putting her hands on her hips as she screamed like those uncultured women of wet markets, “What are you talking about! No manners! Did your parents even teach you a thing? You look like a dog yourself!”

Li Shaoling remained calm and composed. “If I don’t have manners, you clearly have dead parents.”

Ji Weixi was cheering him up to the skies in her heart, and could have ignited a whole string of firecrackers right then.

Li Shaoling had such a poisonous tongue! She liked that very much!
