Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

He deliberately twists her meaning every time, and he's driving her crazy.

"Xiaohan, I'll just hug you for a moment, just for a moment." Li Zhicheng looked at her with piety, seeing her brilliance like a black diamond. In his eyes, she was the only shining star.

"You're crazy! You're always taking advantage of me. If you don't get out, I'm going to get angry!" Shen Menghan glared at him angrily. She was about to lose her temper with him constantly causing trouble.

Without any warning, Li Zhicheng took out his phone and took a close-up photo of himself with her close together.

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, she pouted, and Li Zhicheng smiled even more brightly.

"Delete that photo for me, delete it now." Shen Menghan was worried that if he leaked it, she would be in a situation where she couldn't clear her name no matter what.

"I won't delete it." Li Zhicheng answered decisively, and he used it as his phone's screen saver right in front of her.

"you're so boring."

"Okay, okay, I'm not bored anymore. I'll sit here and wait for you to get off work, then we can go home together."

"Then why don't you shut up?"

Shen Menghan sat down to work, sorting and putting away the documents he had just approved, planning to review them again next Monday.

Tomorrow is Saturday, and she plans to go back to her hometown to visit her grandmother, and then return the day after tomorrow.

When she looked up and saw Li Zhicheng, she had a momentary hallucination: if her grandmother saw him, would her condition improve?

She didn't know what illness her grandmother had, and her mother never told her. What frightened her even more was that her grandmother stayed at home to recuperate and refused to go to a big hospital for a checkup.

She asked her mother several times that this illness shouldn't be delayed and that she should definitely go to a big hospital for a checkup. Her mother gently told her that her grandmother only had a minor ailment and that she would be fine.

She believed it, but if it really was just a minor ailment, why hadn't her grandmother's condition improved even after her mother had stayed by her bedside for over a year?

She must take this opportunity to go back and persuade her grandmother and mother.

Li Zhicheng stared at the photos on his phone, his expression alluring, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turning up in a smug smile that made one want to punch him.

Would things go much more smoothly if we brought Li Zhicheng back to help?

She didn't want anything to do with him, but now she wanted his help. She was frightened by her own conflicting feelings. How could she involve him in her family affairs? Wouldn't that just make things harder for herself?

Forget it, I'll handle my own problems and not worry about anything else.

They went back together. Li Zhicheng wanted to ride in the same car as her, but she didn't want to, so he sat behind her while she drove.

Li Family

Li Guowei and his family were having dinner when they heard a car coming from the gate and looked outside.

Li Zhicheng and Shen Menghan returned in a luxury car, one in front of the other, displaying their ostentatious nature.

Xu Jingjing swallowed her food politely, then turned her gaze back to Li Guowei and said, "Honey, I want to buy a new car."

“We already have a car, why would we buy a new one?” Li Guowei immediately retorted. He explained that financial constraints meant they couldn’t afford to buy whatever they wanted like others.

He and his father only received salaries as ordinary senior managers, so they didn't have the money to squander on her.

"I want my own car." Seeing Shen Menghan driving different luxury cars made her feel uneasy. It was said that Li Zhicheng had more than a dozen luxury cars. The Maybach limited edition he mentioned that day cost more than ten million. If you own this luxury car, even if you are dressed in rags, people will treat you like a landlord.

"Didn't your family give you a car as part of your dowry? Why are you buying another one?"

Li Guowei looked displeased. What was Xu Jingjing trying to do?

"Give that one to Mom, I want a new one."

Xu Jingjing was shameless enough to bring this up in front of Li Dahai and Huang Ju. She didn't consider Li Guowei's feelings and wanted to test her status in their eyes.

"I don't have money to buy it for you. If you want to buy it, save up and buy it yourself." How could Li Guowei tolerate such insolence? Did she not know the actual situation of his family? Did she think he was in the mining business?

"Husband, I married you, shouldn't you grant me one of my wishes? All I want is a car," Xu Jingjing said, her face immediately turning sad.

“Jingjing, how have I ever mistreated you? When we got married, your family asked for a dowry of 500,000 yuan, plus some miscellaneous items totaling 100,000 yuan. I gave it to them, right? Our family's financial situation is limited. To meet your family's demands, we practically sold everything we owned. And now you want to buy a car? Are you kidding me?”

Li Guowei's voice grew louder. If Xu Jingjing didn't stop, he was afraid he would lose his temper. His family had already done everything they could to marry her. If he had married Shen Menghan, he might not have had to spend a penny. Shen Menghan was a very sensible girl. Once the situation was explained to her, she wouldn't be like Xu Jingjing, who was a complete gold digger who insisted on a grand display for everything. If anything was lacking, she would say that he didn't love her and wasn't sincere about getting married.

"Honey, we've only been married a few days and you're already yelling at me. What do you mean by this?" Xu Jingjing was anxious when she saw that Li Dahai and the others hadn't said anything. Li Guowei's attitude made her feel very disheartened.

"I was just raising my voice a little, and that's considered being mean to you? Jingjing, our family isn't as rich as others, so don't always compare yourself to others. That's not how you live your life."

Li Guowei had already lost his appetite, and if she continued to say that, his mood would only get worse.

“You can drive the car after we buy it. It’s not like we’re using it as an investment. I don’t care. If you don’t buy me a car worth three million, I’m going back to my parents’ house tomorrow.”

Xu Jingjing put down her words, thinking of taking a gamble.

"Ha, go back then, I won't stop you. If you want a divorce, return the bride price, and I won't care about anything else." Li Guowei was also angered. He felt that he had been ruined by Xu Jingjing.

"Dad, Mom, please say something for me!" Xu Jingjing didn't expect it to backfire. Li Guowei had changed so much before and after the marriage. Before the marriage, he was almost always compliant with her requests. But after only a few days of marriage, his attitude changed so quickly. She felt that she had been too hasty back then.

But she forgot the most important point: she was the one who proposed marriage first.

"Jingjing, as long as you give us a big, healthy son, I'll buy you a car worth five million, let alone three million. What's the rush?"

Huang Ju sneered. Even if Xu Jingjing was materialistic, she was still their daughter-in-law. If she really went back to her parents' home, it would be the Li family who would lose face. They would have to bear the consequences when the old woman scolded them.

Her son was immature, and she couldn't let them both have their way with their tantrums.

"But I want it now. I don't want people to think that I, the granddaughter-in-law of the Li family, am living a shabby life." Xu Jingjing pouted, still unwilling to accept Huang Ju's words.

She always brings up the issue of having children, but she just doesn't want to have any.

“You need to understand your place. Although you live in the Li family, we are not the true masters of the Li family.” Li Dahai glared at Xu Jingjing. This woman was too greedy.
