Chapter 230: Chapter 226 Of Course Disliking Him [-25 More]

——————

Zhang Shan Ni was thrilled that Xie Jingchen had come back; it felt like life suddenly had a backbone.

After dinner, Xie Jingchen first helped his little wife settle down, then talked with Xie Tiesheng over tea. The father and son briefly discussed the visible aspects of Xie Jingchen’s recent mission, and nothing more, given the confidentiality agreement involved in Xie Jingchen’s assignment.

Then he heard Zhang Shan Ni whisper some family matters that happened at home into his ear.

Xiuhua was so mad she ended up in the hospital, and her husband still wanted to settle the score with her. Zhang Shan Ni slowly realized that, maybe, when her husband left, he seriously ordered her to "stay well at home, and wait for my return."

Better late than never, although it’s a bit late, she still had to say it! After all, it couldn’t be her who was ’disobedient.’ It was because his mother had an accident, and how could she just sit still?

Moreover, she has the Space; she knows her own affairs, so there is a sense of ’fearlessness’ regarding going out.

Funny, how could someone who survived the apocalypse be afraid of going out in peaceful times? How would they survive in the apocalypse?

Xie Jingchen sat next to Zhang Shan Ni, his sharp eyes mainly focusing on her face, but inevitably lingering on her prominently swollen belly.

He felt a longing inside, his fingers itching to touch it...

Regarding the trouble at the fifth family, he felt it was quite good they divorced but his eyes couldn’t help but furrow slightly when they landed on the two children of the fifth family—after all, the children are innocent.

Xie Jingzi stealthily glanced over and saw that the two kids were still terribly scared; she could only helplessly wave her hand and decided to first take the two kids to bathe and back to their room.

It wasn’t until Zhang Shan Ni hesitantly mentioned that their mother had a health crisis due to anger that Xie Jingchen fixed his gaze on Zhou Xiuhua’s face. The old lady hurriedly said she was fine now, it was just the heat of the moment, and that she would be more careful and relax in the future.

After listening to this, Xie Jingchen rebuked his mother a little, then with a ’you’re really useless’ look, glanced at his father to signal Zhang Shan Ni to continue.

Mr. Xie: "..." He really missed the water pipes back home, what to do?

Seeing the meaningful gaze between the father and son, Zhang Shan Ni felt like laughing, but considering her own ’criminal record,’ she dared not act out and just relayed the doctor’s words. The statement was very neutral without adding anything extra, but this was enough to make Xie Jingchen angry.

Knowing how much his mother had been upset, Xie Jingchen glared at Old Xie with a ’scolding a good-for-nothing’ look, and seriously criticized Old Mother, resulting in Zhou Xiuhua feeling defeated and crawling away.

Their third child was good in every aspect, but when it comes to health, even if it was about his parents, he would continue his strong denunciations, and his arguments were always valid, leaving no room for rebuttal.

Zhou Xiuhua knew her son’s point of view quite well, and before her son could transform, she directly, without saving face, stood up and said:

"San’er, you just got back, spend more time with Ni; my illness is almost better, don’t worry about me, I am heading to bathe."

Now, in the family only Xie Tiesheng had to face Xie Jingchen’s dark, displeased face, and both father and son said nothing.

Since hearing the doctor say, his old wife’s illness needed peace and quiet and that smoke would increase the burden on her body, he gradually stopped smoking.

Later, when San’er’s wife came, after the doctor heard Zhang Shan Ni mention she was indeed expecting twins, he privately told him that it was best not to expose the pregnant woman to too much second-hand smoke, as it was bad for the babies.

Smoking too much can easily lead to premature birth.

Xie Tiesheng had always known that smoking was not good for pregnant women and children, so when he was at his old home, he tried to smoke as little as possible, only when he was agitated and needed to calm down, he would stay in the big courtyard and quietly smoke.

Now that he heard it could cause premature birth, he dared not smoke anymore.

Fortunately, his addiction to smoking wasn’t that strong, but now, facing his third son’s cold tiger eyes, he couldn’t help but think about the old smoking pipe at home... Smoking was quite useful, and it also came in handy for knocking people around!

Zhang Shan Ni saw the atmosphere suddenly turn cold, she tightly grasped the man’s waist, and when his gaze shifted to her, she glanced at him faintly, then tried to refocus on ’staring’ at Dad.

Xie Tiesheng had already stood up, "You two take your time to talk, I’m going to take a bath." Leaving behind this remark, Dad immediately left.

After staring at each other for more than ten minutes, the old man’s eyes were sore from staring - it’s not like he was staring at a great beauty, no one fancied continuing the ’deep eye contact’!!

Well, first, second, third, fourth, everyone was using bathing as an excuse to leave! It seems his family man’s lethality was still quite sufficient!

"Pfft!" Zhang Shan Ni covered her mouth in time and lowered her head to snicker, watching Dad’s amusing old playful child-like demeanor, she almost burst out laughing.

Seeing Xie Jingchen’s gaze turn towards her, Zhang Shan Ni quickly stood up, pretending like she was also about to leave, "Brother Chen, if you’re tired just sit a bit longer, or you could take a bath later, I’ll walk around—"

Saying so, she slowly stood up—not that she was putting on an act for the man, but because her stomach was really quite big now, and if she moved too abruptly, she’d feel a pressure in her chest.

Besides, if her own man wouldn’t care for her, then who would? [Parents could care]

"Be careful." As soon as Xie Jingchen saw her stand up, his body automatically supported her, she waved her hand, signaling him to let go, and then she slowly walked around the living room.

At first, Xie Jingchen was nervously following her, and after a few minutes, stopped by Zhang Shan Ni’s repeated hand waving, signaling him not to follow.

Before Xie Jingchen arrived, Zhang Shan Ni felt the house was quite spacious. But when a man over one meter ninety insisted on following her around, she felt like she had become a dwarf, and her previously broad view was now blocked by a mountain of flesh—

Based on her height, looking straight ahead, it was his solid chest blocking her view, really like a mountain of flesh, making it extremely frustrating.

Because of this stark contrast, Zhang Shan Ni continuously reminded herself in her heart, how did she become a dwarf carrying a ball?

This was quite depressing, and of course, Zhang Shan Ni did not favor him right now, seeing that the bathroom was empty, she straightforwardly directed him to take a shower.

Xie Jingzi was also tired, everyone was afraid of Xie Jingchen’s gaze, they all used bathing as an escape, there she was, continuously boiling hot water for baths, also not easy.

But there was no choice, don’t even mention solar energy, even water heaters haven’t come out yet!

I wonder if electric heating tubes have been invented? But those consume a lot of electricity and are prone to accidents if the quality isn’t up to par.

Zhang Shan Ni did have brand-new equipment in her Space, but even if she had it, she wouldn’t dare to bring it out.

This is only the years ’79, better wait a couple more years, when she has the economic means out in the open, then bringing them out would at most make people think they are foreign goods [Just thinking about it for now].
