Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Shen Yi’s brow furrowed. ”You all stay in the car. I’ll get out and take a look.”

Qin Jiao nodded. Once he was out of the car, she turned to her mother and brought up the house.

”The house was a gift from Beidou’s father—a wedding present, he said. Shen Yi’s household registration is tied to the courtyard house. Yours was transferred over, but it’s only a temporary registration. It would be better to have it formally attached to a property.”

When the registrations were first transferred, Su Yun’s and Xiao Shi’s were processed, but Qin Zhonghui’s was still in their hometown because he had a house there.

If his household registration were transferred, the house would have to be dealt with.

Su Yun and Qin Zhonghui had discussed selling the house for cheap, since it was just an old residential plot. But Qin Jiao knew their hometown would undergo a major relocation project later on.

If they sold it now, they would get one thousand yuan at the absolute most.

But if they waited a few years for the demolitions, they could get tens of thousands all at once!

Hearing this, Su Yun was stunned. ”Xiao Yi is letting us all transfer our registrations there? That doesn’t seem right!”

”I’d thought about buying a house before, but after looking into it, the prices here are a little high. It would probably take us a year or two to afford one. Who knows what the situation will be by then? I was worried the temporary registration might cause some issues, so I figured we should just transfer it over for now and deal with the rest later.”

Su Yun murmured with a sigh, ”There are no words for how good Xiao Yi is to you.”

Qin Jiao nodded. She was quite satisfied with Shen Yi at the moment. If Xiao Shi and Xiao Cheng hadn’t been right there, she would have told her mother about her and Shen Yi’s plan to just date for a while and see how things went.

But right at that moment, the sound of an argument came from outside.

’Shen Yi’s been out of the car for a while. Why isn’t he back yet?’

Qin Jiao said, ”Mom, stay in the car. I’m going to go see what’s happening.”

”Okay.”

After getting out of the car, Qin Jiao walked around the front of it and saw Shen Yi standing before the other vehicle with a grim expression.

On the other side stood Li Xiaomei and another woman. Qin Jiao had to dig through her memories before she recalled that the woman with Li Xiaomei was Ji Yuehong, her cousin. Back when Du Liya and Shen Zhengfeng were still married, it was this Ji Yuehong who had provided cover for Li Xiaomei, creating opportunities for her to meet and date Shen Zhengfeng.

That was usually how it worked. Ji Yuehong would first ask Du Liya to go shopping, and they’d be out for the entire day. For that whole day, Shen Zhengfeng could be with Li Xiaomei.

’What a disgusting woman.’

Shen Yi also knew about this, so of course he wasn’t about to give Ji Yuehong a friendly look.

Qin Jiao walked to Shen Yi’s side and asked in a low voice, ”What’s going on?”

When Shen Yi saw it was Qin Jiao, his tightly furrowed brow relaxed a little. He said, ”This car belongs to Shen Feng. He’s not here, and I don’t know where he went. I told them to get Shen Feng to move the car, but they won’t.”

Shen Yi knew this second chance at life wasn’t easy, so he did his best to control his temper at every turn, even though he knew it was bad.

Besides, he would never hit a woman.

That was why he’d been stuck in this dispute for a while.

If it had been Shen Feng blocking the way and refusing to move, Shen Yi would have thrown a punch long ago.

But Qin Jiao said in a calm tone, ”Oh. If they won’t move the car, then just call someone to have it towed.”

If it had been anyone else, Qin Jiao would have been willing to wait a little longer. After all, anyone can be in a hurry.

’But when it comes to Li Xiaomei, Shen Feng, and this Ji Yuehong... heh. There’s no need for that. They were basically enemies, so there was no reason to be friendly.’
