Chapter 296

296 My husband or my son?

Retribution indeed. Yi Chen watched on as his man devoured his ribs like a greedy little piggy. But Yi Chen thought he was so cute.

That’s because he had sticky sauce smudged at the corner of his lips. For this level of cuteness, he would most definitely go hungry.

Ikeda Yua who was half gone (wasted) by now offered her plate. “Chen-ge, you can have some of my food. I am not hungry anyway. Unlike a certain someone I would never let my man go hungry,” she said only for Yi Chen to direct a murderous glare at her. This girl was ruining a good thing for him.

Yi Chen glanced at Zi Han and thought his baby would be mad or at least upset but unlike what he expected, Zi Han chuckled before saying,

“I will make sure you are satiated tonight. You know I am good for it.”

Yi Chen, “...”

He smiled gleefully while reaching out to wipe Zi Han’s mouth. “I know you will never let me starve,” replied Yi Chen his exquisite visage showing a delighted expression.

Zi Han wasn’t heartless. In the end, he fed Yi Chen with each bite he took and the pair looked so harmonious that it felt like a crime if one interrupted them. Even Ikeda Yua didn’t dare interrupt after that. She had to admit that Zi Han had his tentacles deep inside Yi Chen’s heart and there was no point in trying to undo this.

Her best option to vent out her jealousy was to make things difficult for them. She was certain that Lin Ruoxi wouldn’t accept these two being together thus she planned to give her every detail about this meal. Her idea was plausible but it was the target she got wrong.

.....

The person she should have gone to with this information was the Marshal but she hadn’t thought about it. Her mood suddenly improved as she finished off her glass of wine.

As soon as she got home Ikeda Yua requested a video call from Lin Ruoxi but like always Lin Ruoxi ignored her. It was only after she wrote a message did Lin Ruoxi call her back.

Lin Ruoxi was sitting with her two babies helping them with their school work when she saw that message. The fact that the girl mentioned her son’s and Zi Han’s names Lin Ruoxi had no choice but to leave her babies doing homework.

“Hie Yua-er. I am helping my kids with homework so I couldn’t accept your call,” said Lin Ruoxi while glancing at her kids who were sneakily trying to take advantage of her absence and play games.

“Sorry,” said Lin Ruoxi before muting her call and yelling at the two, “hey, put that down. I am watching you.”

She unmuted the call and asked, “What did you say happened to my son again.”

Ikeda Yua didn’t spare any details. She mentioned everything about what she saw, what they did, and her negative opinion of it. Ikeda Yua was very detailed but what she didn’t realize was that Lin Ruoxi was smiling knowing that her son was doing everything right. If one wants to keep their wife they have to put in the work. This was great news.

The only problem was that this information was coming from Ikeda Yua. When she recalled that the smile on her face fell. She suddenly worried that this willful girl had offended Zi Han and caused conflict between the couple.

This thought had her interrupting Ikeda Yua in a panic. “I will take care of it, okay? Just keep what you saw to yourself,” before directly hanging up the call.

Meanwhile, Zi Xingxi received a message informing her that someone had ordered a few men to watch Zi Han on his date with Yi Chen. Not only that but they also took pictures of Zi Han. She had been drinking in her room while hugging her husband’s crown when she received the message.

Yes, it was a thing now. Ever since Zi Han gave her the things he found in Prime Minister Ikeda’s secret room she had been hugging it to sleep. Most people would suggest she moved on but to be honest her husband was the only person she had ever loved. She couldn’t get over him thus this scene where she was lying in bed with her husband’s crown.

When she got to the brig of Han she found two men with swollen faces kneeling on the ground with blood dripping down their mouths.

Zi Xingxi sighed as she sat down on the chair while pulling her sleeves back. “Who sent them?” she asked seeming very exhausted.

Secretary K who was wiping his knuckles of all the blood replied, “It was the prime minister. It seems he hasn’t learned anything from the past. He still has immoral thoughts about the young master.”

Zi Xingxi scoffed as she raised her hand and called the prime minister. She couldn’t believe that after he almost lost his life and thoroughly lost his manhood he would still have perverted thoughts about her son. It was just too despicable.

As soon as her video call was accepted she was met by a man much skinnier than before. He seemed to have less vitality and his eyes were sunken with black circles. He was smoking a cigar his eyes seeming lifeless.

Zi Xingxi laughed as she leaned back after seeing this. She couldn’t get over her husband’s death and is still grieving even now. This was understandable because they loved each other but this man who had been rejected was also still grieving over her husband and even trying to use her son as a substitute which was incredibly insane. What made it even worse was that her son had almost killed him yet he was busy stalking him in the shadows taking pictures of him.

“You must be tired of living,” she said with a deadly glare directed at him.

The prime minister pulled back his hand holding the cigar and exhaled creating a cloud of thick smoke in front of the floating screen before saying, “I can’t help it. I am sure you can understand how much he means to me.”

“Who? My husband or my son?” asked Zi Xingxi killing intent flushing in her eyes.
