Chapter 148: Well, That’s Settled
Yu Mingyi gave him an inscrutable look; Yu Minglang was still self-analyzing.
"You guys have been married for so many years. If she was crazy before marriage, then after marriage you should’ve used protection—"
Yu Mingyi reached out and lightly knocked him on the head.
"You’re getting more and more disrespectful."
"Oh, so you didn’t use protection—Second Brother, did you not do it or something? Damn, how many years have you been married? Bro, do you have problems? Don’t tell me, let me analyze it. You both should have check-ups..."
Yu Mingyi looked amused at his brother’s antics, while Yu Minglang spoke with mock seriousness.
"Second Brother, during your check-ups, was there a requirement not to be too big?"
"What?" Yu Mingyi frowned.
Yu Minglang leered and made a gesture, leaving Yu Mingyi both amused and exasperated.
"Ridiculous. Who told you that?"
"That’s the rumor. They say if that thing is too big, it can block the control stick, is your stick between your legs? Seeing how big it is, I wonder how you passed the check-up and got in—Second Brother, are you sure you’re okay?"
When they used to shower together as kids, he saw everything, haha.
Seeing Yu Minglang’s expectant expression, Yu Mingyi silently clenched his fist, and then—
"Just kidding, why did you hit my handsome face! I have a date with Qian tomorrow, how am I supposed to face her like this!"
Yu Minglang covered his eye. His mean second brother actually hit him, and it really hurt...
"That’s for you constantly thinking about useless things. Hitting you isn’t even too much." Yu Mingyi withdrew his hand, adding one more thing.
"It’s one thing for others to spread rumors, but why are you spreading them too? The stick is at knee level; even if you were a donkey, it wouldn’t hit it! If Dad hears you say stuff like that, he might just beat you to death!"
Mr. Yu was just like the second brother back then, only taking over the company later.
Yu Minglang chuckled twice; he was just trying to lighten the mood. Seeing his second brother so exasperated, it seemed...wait, if the second brother didn’t have any issues, did that mean he was deliberately avoiding Wang Xiaohong?
"Second Brother, seriously, when are you getting a divorce? You can’t keep playing around like this. It’s fine if you don’t care, but don’t drag the whole family down with you."
"When her condition improves." By then, he could make a choice without upsetting Dad too much. Yes, Yu Mingyi married Wang Xiaohong not only as a form of self-exile but with deeper motives.
"Let Sister-in-law check on her properly. Isn’t it just a bit of women’s issues that Sister-in-law is really skilled at handling?"
"No... she had a shock early on, and her brother said that only by marrying me would she have a chance for improvement." And he just happened to need to exploit Wang Xiaohong.
"Damn, where is her brother buried? I’ll dig up his grave and ask him: did she end up healed, or did he manage to drive our whole family insane? He must want to use his sister to make our family go crazy, so it doesn’t highlight her problems. I figured it out, Wang Dazhi is no good; he’s too malicious!"
Yu Mingyi didn’t directly say anything, just stared into the distance.
He thought Wang Xiaohong would become somewhat normal after marrying him – it didn’t matter whom he married – if she lived a stable life and helped him achieve his goals, he wouldn’t have planned to divorce, just let it ride.
But her condition didn’t improve, seemed to worsen, and even affected Panpan. Yu Mingyi began to seriously consider that perhaps it was time for him to act.
"Second Brother, you really can’t delay anymore. If you keep going like this, not only will it curse our family, it won’t do Wang Xiaohong any good. She keeps complaining that our family wronged her this way and that way. Here’s your chance, whoever can make it right for her, let her find them."
"I’ll decide what to do. Keep your nose out, and about Mom and Dad, keep your mouth shut."
"If you don’t hurry and deal with Wang Xiaohong, our family won’t need to lift a finger; I’ll come over and nag you when I get the chance."
But Yu Minglang never got that chance because his second brother took care of it the next day, all thanks to Yu Minglang and Qian’s help.
Heading back from the second brother’s place, it was already close to midnight. Originally, Yu Minglang intended to go home and sleep, but somehow, passing by Qian’s urban village, he drove straight in.
He just wanted to see if she was asleep from downstairs, only to find her house completely dark, except for the light in Qian’s room.
This girl, still awake this late?
Qian was in the middle of skincare, face covered in cucumber slices.
She had some insomnia tonight.
The attic was a bit stuffy at night, so Qian intended to open the window a bit. But when she did, she was nearly scared to death.
Yu Minglang was like a gecko person, sticking to her window, grinning at her.
"Good evening, fancy meeting you again!"
Qian was grateful for her strong nerves; anyone else, frightened by this kind of lunatic, might seriously fall ill.
Yu Minglang looked at her with a mischievous smile, curious to peel off all those cucumbers from her face. Women were so strange, putting all kinds of stuff on their faces.
Qian, at her wit’s end, threw a punch!
Yu Minglang had just been punched in the left eye by his second brother last night, and now Qian’s fist landed on the right. Though it didn’t hurt, his heart broke into pieces.
"Not sleeping in the middle of the night, coming to scare me, Yu Minglang, are you tired of our relationship, wanting it over?"
Qian turned around, quickly removed the cucumber slices from her face, still feeling the urge to punch him again.
"Qianbao, want to catch a midnight show?"
"Get lost, I’m tired! Who wants to watch dirty movies with you!"
"It’s not dirty, let’s go see a horror film. If you’re sleepy, you can sleep on my shoulder, I’ll take you home afterward."
Qian dragged him inside, secretly looking around to make sure no neighbors saw them; meeting a boyfriend felt like a secret rendezvous. Yu Minglang was such a crazy person.
"Aren’t you a nuisance? Just a few hours until dawn, can’t it wait?" She motioned him to her small bed, and Yu Minglang immediately noticed the bra by her pillow. Nice~
Qian covered the bra with a pillowcase, realizing her braless state, she draped a coat over her robe, then sat down across from him.
"Feeling uneasy, thought watching a movie might help vent... never mind, you sleep, I’ll go on my own." He got up and jumped back out the window.
Qian knew it was because of his second brother’s problem troubling him.
"Wait for me in the car, I’ll change and come down."
Yu Minglang’s eyes lit up, his mood instantly improved.
"This silly guy..." Qian shook her head, found some clothes to change into, carefully locked her room, then cautiously climbed out the window.
Going out on a date in the middle of the night, if Jia Xiufang knew, she’d be heartbroken. She had just taught her to be reserved, and here she was sneaking out!
But neither Qian nor Yu Minglang expected that this movie date would directly lead to the second brother’s singlehood!
