Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Chapter 306: Your Bed or Car

Seeing Wei Shuyi’s reaction, Jiaren Wu revealed a surprised expression. She asked him, “What? Do you dislike it? Aren’t you not picky about food?”

Wei Shuyi shook his head in a speechless manner. As someone who cared about his diet, he had not eaten instant noodles in several years.

He tore off the lid and prepared the noodles with Jiaren Wu. She threw him a piece of ham and a packet of pickled vegetables. They were cheap, the kind that cost one yuan per packet.

Wei Shuyi caught the ham and pickled vegetables and raised his eyebrows in surprise. He had never tried such a combination before. After adding the food into the bowl, he sat on a small table outside the convenience store with Jiaren Wu. After taking a bite, he was surprised to find that this food tasted quite good.

However, although instant noodles were delicious, they were unhealthy.

“Do you eat this often?” he asked Jiaren Wu.

Jiaren Wu said, “I eat this when I’m busy. It’s convenient.” She slurped down a few mouthfuls of instant noodles and added. “It’s just that the quantity is too little, and I can’t get full.”

Wei Shuyi stared at the big bowl of noodles and revealed an even stranger expression.

I can’t even finish it, yet she thinks it’s too little…

When Jiaren Wu saw that Wei Shuyi didn’t eat much, she misunderstood him and said, “Although I like you, I won’t eat the leftovers.”

Wei Shuyi had no choice but to explain. “It’s just a little hot. I’ll eat it after it turns cold.”

“Oh, then I misinterpreted you then.” Jiaren Wu didn’t seem embarrassed.

Wei Shuyi lowered his head and ate his instant noodles. Jiaren Wu watched him eat and suddenly said, “The way you eat is especially cute.”

Wei Shuyi got a little embarrassed.

He had no choice but to raise his head and look straight at Jiaren Wu. Then, he sternly said to her, “Officer Wu, can you stop flirting with me regardless of the occasion?”

Jiaren Wu nonchalantly replied, “I do want to flirt with you on a special occasion, but I don’t think it will work.” She looked at Wei Shuyi with a serious face and added, “At least not for now.”

Wei Shuyi was stunned and asked, “What occasion?”

Smiling, Jiaren Wu softly said, “On your bed.”

The reply stunned Wei Shuyi.

Jiaren Wu remained fearless and said, “I can do it in bed too.”

The words continued to shock Wei Shuyi.

Jiaren Wu again said, “Well, if not, we can do it in your car too. But not on my motorbike. It’s too narrow.” She frowned and gave an expression as if she were seriously considering which positions she could use on her motorcycle.

Wei Shuyi was shocked and frightened. He wanted to scold her for being shameless, but when the words reached his mouth, he lost the courage to speak. Wei Shuyi opened his mouth, but remained speechless for a while. In the end, he embarrassedly said. “The police officers nowadays are becoming more and more indecent.”

Jiaren Wu solemnly shook her head again. “No, you’re wrong. Being a police officer is a proper profession, but the person who has the role might not be proper.”

Wei Shuyi didn’t know what to say. Jiaren Wu admitted that she was indecent.

After that, Wei Shuyi didn’t dare to speak anymore.

He was afraid that Jiaren Wu would flirt with him if he said anything.

When he was done eating noodles, Wei Shuyi heaved a sigh of relief.

He got up and went to the tap to wash his hands. Jiaren Wu leaned against the side of the motorbike and waited for him. At this moment, a young black-haired boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, walked into a small store. He took out ten yuan with great familiarity and handed it to the boss, saying, “A packet of Hongtashan.”

The boss bent down, took out a packet of cigarettes from the glass cabinet, then gave it to the young man.

The young man took the packet and skillfully opened it. He took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it.

That action and that expression of enjoyment when puffing out smoke told Jiaren Wu that this boy was an addict.

She strode toward the shop.

The cigarette in the young man’s mouth was suddenly taken away.

The young man was momentarily stunned, then he became angry. He turned around to scold the one behind it when he saw a beautiful face. The young man’s face turned red, and the words that were about to come out of his mouth fell back. “You… who are you?”

Jiaren Wu slapped the youth on the head. She used her fingers to extinguish the cigarette and said to him, “Minors are not allowed to smoke.”

The young man got even more embarrassed. “There are many people who smoke. What can you do about it?”

“If I see it, I’ll deal with it,” Jiaren Wu said. She pulled her credentials out of her shirt and walked into the convenience store, ignoring the grumbling of the young man behind her.

Showing her police badge to the store owner, Miss Jiaren Wu righteously said, “Shopkeeper, according to Article 15 of the People’s Republic of China’s Law on the Prevention of Underage Crime, parents or guardians and schools should educate underaged minors that they are not allowed to smoke or drink. No business premises should sell cigarettes and alcohol to minors.

“Shopkeeper, now don’t tell me that the child is an adult.” Jiaren Wu pointed at the young man, who was only about 1.6 meters tall and had worn a sweater to act cool in the middle of winter. She didn’t look too happy.

Although selling cigarettes to minors was not illegal, it was still morally punishable. The shopkeeper awkwardly smiled and said, “I’ll be careful in the future.”

As Jiaren Wu put away her badge, Wei Shuyi had just finished washing his hands. He stood outside the shop, looking at Jiaren Wu with a complex expression.

He really could not understand this woman.

When Jiaren Wu came out, she patted the young man’s shoulder and said, “Study more and smoke less.”

When the young man found out that this woman was a police officer, he was a little embarrassed. As she patted his shoulder, he stammered, unable to speak.

Jiaren Wu sat on the motorbike. Wei Shuyi put on his helmet and sat behind her, hugging her waist. Jiaren Wu asked for his address, and Wei Shuyi told her. Then, he asked, “You’ve tried to seduce me time and time again. Are you a pervert?”

Jiaren Wu chuckled and said, “Then go and sue me. Report me to my Chief.”

Wei Shuyi was surprised. “What do you mean?”

Jiaren Wu said, “My Chief is worried sick over my marriage. It’s tough for me to find someone I like. It’s already kind of him not to pair us up. If you report me to him, he’ll only clap his hands and praise you.”

Wei Shuyi stopped talking.

When they arrived at his house, Jiaren Wu dropped him off downstairs.

The residents familiar with Wei Shuyi saw Jiaren Wu. They smiled and asked Wei Shuyi, “Mr. Wei, is this your girlfriend?”

Wei Shuyi was about to shake his head when Jiaren Wu smiled and said to the neighbors, “Yes.”

Wei Shuyi took a few more glances at this thick-skinned person. After thinking for a while, he decided not to correct her.

“Which floor do you live on?” Jiaren Wu looked up at the elevator and curiously asked.

“Sixteenth.”

“Oh!”

As a man, Wei Shuyi pretended to be polite and asked. “Do you want to go upstairs for a cup of tea?”

Jiaren Wu immediately replied, “Sure!”

Wei Shuyi was speechless.

He wanted to say, “Actually, I’m just being polite to you. Why don’t you know the social cues?”

Wei Shuyi and Jiaren Wu went upstairs together. As they stood in the elevator, Jiaren Wu said, “I live in the stairwell. I’m afraid of taking the elevator. I watched too many horror movies when I was young. I always feel like something’s wrong with the elevator.”

Wei Shuyi revealed a complicated expression.

He looked down at Jiaren Wu’s face and chuckled. “Coward?”

Realizing that he was mocking her for being timid, Jiaren Wu snorted and turned her head away, ignoring him.

She was rather cute like this.

Wei Shuyi took a few more glances at her, and the elevator reached the 16th floor.

Just as Jiaren Wu had expected, Wei Shuyi’s house was spotless, just like him. Seeing the three teacups on the coffee table, she asked, “A guest came to your house yesterday?”

“Xiao Sheng and Mr. Fang visited me.”

Jiaren Wu suddenly asked, “Are you two good friends?”

“Yeah.”

“Mr. Fang and Ah Sheng are good people.”

“Xiao Sheng is not bad.”?As for Fang Yusheng…?Wei Shuyi chose not to mention him.

Wei Shuyi said that he would treat Jiaren Wu to tea. However, since he had tea leaves at home, he got busy boiling water. When he saw that Jiaren Wu had nothing to do on the sofa, he said, “You can watch TV.”

As Jiaren Wu turned on the television, her gaze fell on the first-aid kit beside the TV cabinet. She turned to look at the kitchen. After thinking for a moment, she ran to get the first-aid kit. When Wei Shuyi finished boiling the water and brought out the tea, Jiaren Wu was waiting for him with the first-aid kit in her arms.

“Come here.”

Wei Shuyi’s eyes flashed, and he felt the pain on his face.

He had seen his face in the kitchen just now. It was a horrible sight.

Jiaren Wu took some ointment to clean his wounds. After she was done, she applied some ointment on his wounds and reminded him, “Don’t wash your face when you’re showering. If you apply this on your face and let it stay there all night, the swelling should subside tomorrow. It’s Sunday today, and you have to go to work tomorrow. Your injuries should recover well in two to three days. So I suggest you take a few days off.”

Wei Shuyi’s lips twitched when he heard this. These actions made the wound on his face start to hurt again. “It’s all your fault.”

Jiaren Wu remained silent.

“Done.”

She went to wash her hands. When she came back, she held the cup of hot tea and took a sip. It was unknown if the tea was hot or not, but Jiaren Wu drank her tea very slowly. As she drank the tea, the clock turned from 8: 10 pm to 9: 30 pm. Wei Shuyi looked at the clock on the wall several times and felt anxious.

Is this woman planning to stay at my house?

When Wei Shuyi looked at the clock for the umpteenth time, Jiaren Wu finally put down the teacup in her hand. “It’s getting late. I should go.”

Wei Shuyi quickly stood up to send her off.

Jiaren Wu really left. After she left, Wei Shuyi couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

Jiaren Wu went downstairs and leaned against the motorbike. She muttered, “Twenty-nine years old, single, living a good life. He used to be a doctor, and now he’s a teacher. The most difficult thing is his cleanliness. Yes, I’m a virgin, and he’s a virgin too. He’s physically compatible with me. He’s quite handsome, and I’m also beautiful. Yes, my looks are quite compatible with his, too. Living in a bachelor’s apartment, inviting girls into the house when it’s dark, but not touching them… The whole process is rather orderly. He’s a gentleman who knows the rules…

“In conclusion, this man…” Jiaren Wu raised her head and looked at the 16th floor with a determined gaze. “I want him!”

People were just like that. The more they were not interested in you, the more they wanted you.

To Jiaren Wu, conquering an old bachelor like Wei Shuyi was much more interesting than dating a rich man like Lin Zhi.

Wei Shuyi stood on the balcony and watched Jiaren Wu drive away her bike. Only then did he return to his room.

He took a shower and carefully avoided the wound on his face before lying down on the bed.

Wei Shuyi’s bed was a solid wooden tatami-style bed. It was two meters wide. He slept on the left side, and on the right side was a six-meter long bear doll. This was a gift given to him by a twelve-year-old girl after he had performed his first successful surgery.

Wei Shuyi turned over and hugged the bear doll. Just as he was about to fall asleep, his WeChat rang.

After three rings, Wei Shuyi had no choice but to turn on his phone.

His phone showed three unread messages from a person who had a man’s abs as their profile picture.

Wei Shuyi was surprised when he saw Jiaren Wu’s WeChat profile picture. It had been a long time since they had chatted on WeChat.

He opened it and saw a message from Jiaren Wu.

Alluring Beauty: “I like you, and I’ll text you to harass you. You can choose to not answer or ignore me, but you can’t block me.”

Alluring Beauty: “The first thing I want to say to you is: You were not handsome at all today.”

Alluring Beauty: “The second sentence I wanted to say to you is: I’m sorry! I hit you too hard last night!”

Wei Shuyi stared at the messages for a long time but didn’t reply.

He ignored all the messages and went to sleep.

Three days later, Wei Shuyi went to class. The scars on his face had finally faded a little.

The female teacher in the office asked him, “Mr. Wei, what happened to your face? Did you fight with someone?” Mr. Wei used to be a doctor. He cherished his hands more than anyone else. It was quite surprising that he would fight with someone.

Wei Shuyi could not tell anyone that some woman at a bar had molested him on Saturday night and that a policewoman had beaten him up.

“Well, I had a fight with a friend.” He hesitated for a moment and chose to lie.

“Hey, so you know how to fight too.”

The topic quickly changed. After a while, the female teacher spoke again. This time, she first sighed before saying, “People these days are getting more and more outrageous.”

“Why?”

“My daughter works as the lobby manager at the Jiazhou Hotel. The couple who had planned to get married last weekend actually canceled their engagement.”
