The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

”Gu Jiaojiao said it was a misunderstanding to save you face, and you really had to push it?”

”Xu Wenwan, the biggest regret of my life is meeting you! You’re an absolute jinx! Anyone who gets close to you is doomed to suffer!”

Yun Hao snapped. He had been a golden boy, living a smooth and easy life, admired by everyone wherever he went.

But ever since Xu Wenwan arrived at Qingshan Team, his reputation had tanked and his luck had run dry. He’d had a falling out with his family because of her, losing his monthly allowance, and now he’d even made an enemy of the village head.

If she wasn’t a scourge, a jinx, then what was she?

Xu Wenwan let out a yell and lunged at Yun Hao, her nails aimed at his face.

”You useless bum! You’re completely incompetent, so you blame all your failures on me! I’m so beautiful, I could have married a much better man, but instead I’m stuck with a good-for-nothing like you! I haven’t even called *you* a jinx, and you have the gall to call me one? I’ll kill you!”

’I’m the heroine of this story!’ Xu Wenwan thought. ’I’m a woman who embodies both wisdom and beauty, a little fairy who brings good fortune and helps those around me achieve greatness. And now someone dares to call me a jinx? How can I possibly stand for this!’

Soon, the two were scuffling again.

Being a man, Yun Hao was much stronger, and soon had Xu Wenwan screaming in pain.

Xu Wenwan cried, indignant that this man was beating her again.

So she took the Power Pill the system had given her, the one meant for dealing with Leng Yuan, and swallowed it.

The system didn’t even have time to stop her.

After taking the Power Pill, Xu Wenwan was immediately filled with immense strength. She pinned Yun Hao down and started wailing on him, making him howl in pain.

The system, on the other hand, was practically apoplectic.

Without using the Shop, it had only managed to squirrel away a single Power Pill. It was supposed to be Xu Wenwan’s final trump card, and she had just wasted it like this.

At that moment, for the nth time, the system regretted being so blind as to bind itself to Xu Wenwan in the first place.

If it had bound itself to Gu Jiaojiao, it would’ve obtained the Purple Qi long ago.

It would’ve been free by now.

It was drowning in regret...

The system couldn’t cry, or it would have long since shed tears of bitter regret.

「Next door to Yun Hao’s house.」

They had finished dinner long ago. Hearing the commotion from next door, the large family, not even minding the cold, had lined up with their little stools and were sitting at the base of the wall, listening to the fight.

Listening to the couple on the other side of the wall trading insults, they found it all thoroughly entertaining.

You had to admit, this New Year’s celebration was certainly an interesting one.

They were getting a free action movie.

「Back at Leng Yuan’s home.」

The two children were asleep, and the couple, Gu Jiaojiao and Leng Yuan, had also laid down. Suddenly, Leng Yuan felt something cool on his arm. He lifted his hand and saw a men’s Plum Blossom watch.

Gu Jiaojiao was beaming. ”It’s your New Year’s gift.”

When they got married, Leng Yuan had bought her clothes, a watch, and shoes. He had spared no expense on her.

She didn’t have much money back then, certainly not enough to buy him a watch in return.

Later, Leng Yuan gave her a lot of money, but that was all money *he* had earned.

’Since she was the one giving Leng Yuan a gift, it had to be with money she earned herself.’

The money for this gift came from selling those two skincare sets. She had spent a long time picking out the perfect one, intending to give it to Leng Yuan all along.

The reason she hadn’t given it to him during the day was because she hadn’t prepared gifts for Sweet Girl and Xiao Yang. She was worried the children would get jealous, so she chose to give it to him at night instead.

Leng Yuan’s gaze was intense as he stared at the beautiful, smiling woman before him. Then, he pulled her into his arms.

A blush crept up Gu Jiaojiao’s face. Even though they were like an old married couple, she still felt unaccountably shy.
