Quick Travel: From Beginner to Master
Chapter 140 Breaking out of the cocoon 12
He Sichen called his father-in-law and mother-in-law over to help, but obviously, they couldn't restore their daughter to her original appearance.
All four rooms in the He family were occupied. The original owner's parents rested in a nearby hotel at night, and the son-in-law specially booked a room for them.
In the next few days, the Ye family's parents took turns coming to persuade their daughter.
But despite all the hard and soft words, the daughter refused to listen. Instead, they witnessed with their own eyes how the He family was ordered around.
Because they really couldn't stand it, the two couldn't help but blame Ling Liang again.
Ling Liang was not the original owner. He wanted to give his parents face, so he would not spoil them and kept poking the lungs of Ye's parents.
Ye's father scolded him for not fulfilling his duties as a daughter-in-law and mistreating his parents-in-law. Ling Liang mocked him, saying that some people could not even meet their foreign daughters-in-law, let alone the respect they received from their sons and daughters-in-law.
Ye Mu earnestly taught him that "everything will be prosperous if the family is harmonious" and that women must be virtuous so that their husband's family will like them.
Ling Liang laughed and replied to her, "My eldest brother's wife has nothing to do with gentleness and virtuousness. As a mother-in-law, don't you still like her so much that you show off to others every day that your son has a foreign wife?"
From time to time, the conversation was mixed with the daughter's belittling of the eldest son, and the parents of the Ye family couldn't stand it just listening to it.
The in-laws couldn't help, and they were still very angry. They didn't want to deal with the mess at their son-in-law's house. They packed up the luggage they had brought, checked out of the room, and took the car home.
On weekends, Xiaopeng went to learn drums as usual.
He Sichen watched Xiaopeng go out, then turned around and closed the door gently. He especially wanted to stop his son and go to the interest class with him.
But he didn't have the courage. His wife was staring at him eagerly.
After Xiaopeng left for a while, Ling Liang put down his chopsticks, pushed the dinner plate aside, and stared at He Sichen.
The sweat on He Sichen's forehead was visible.
"You are very smart and you can think of calling my parents over to treat me."
Ling Liang spoke, his tone was not good, but not bad either, giving He Sichen the illusion that things could be undone.
But illusions are meant to be broken.
"Everyone knows that cockroaches are very tenacious."
Ling Liang smiled and continued, "But I think this kind of creature will feel ashamed when it comes to you. He Sichen, you are much better than a cockroach."
"Punches and kicks can't break your back, and you don't even care about being strangled with a belt. You bear the humiliation and bear the burden just to find an opportunity to fight back. I'm almost moved by your evocative spirit."
On the surface, these words sounded like praise, but He Sichen would rather his wife hit him as usual, rather than receiving this unexplained compliment.
As he expected, Ling Liang's next words revealed his murderous intent, "He Sichen, do you think life is too wonderful and you have become curious about the world below? Are you forcing me to beat you every meal?"
He Sichen shook his head like a rattle.
Unexpectedly, his wife didn't care about the feelings of his own parents. If he had known about this earlier, he would definitely not have invited his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
After racking his brains, he ended up shooting himself in the foot.
He Sichen regretted it to death.
Ling Liang glanced at his annoyed expression, feeling very contemptuous in his heart.
In fact, Ling Liang was already aware of He Sichen's actions when he contacted the original owner's parents.
But when he thought that he would meet the Ye family sooner or later, he didn't stop him. It wasn't a big deal anyway.
This man is indeed regretting it now, but if the plan works and the original owner's parents successfully suppress him, He Sichen will be arrogant and proud.
Thinking of this, Ling Liang said disdainfully: "You're pretty good at playing tricks. He Sichen, if you have any tricks you haven't used yet, you might as well..."
He was interrupted mid-sentence by the phone ringing.
Looking at the phone, I saw the note on the screen was "Big Brother".
This is from Ye Songqing.
It doesn't take much thinking to guess that it was a good thing done by the original owner's parents.
Ling Liang handed the phone to He Sichen and said briefly: "Take it."
The trouble he caused should be solved by him.
The male voice on the other end of the phone kept ringing like a machine gun, "Yeling, what's wrong with you! How old are your parents, and you still let them worry!"
"Why did my brother-in-law offend you? Are you going to fight with him? Huh? You don't even look at your own conditions. As your brother, I can't help but say something fair. You are the one who set yourself up for marrying your brother-in-law."
"Isn't my sister good enough? She is talented and capable, and she treats you well, so if she makes a small mistake, you can forgive her. Isn't it nice to make a big fuss and have a husband and wife fight and scold each other every day? Everyone is laughing at you. do you know!"
"How could I have a sister like you? It's such a shame! From now on, live honestly with your brother-in-law and stop being so forceful. I won't harm you, do you hear me?"
In Ye Songqing's commanding tone full of superiority, He Sichen couldn't get a word in.
When he stopped to take a breath, He Sichen finally found the opportunity to reply.
"That, brother-in-law, is me... He Sichen."
After a while, the male voice on the phone said slightly awkwardly: "Oh, it's you, brother-in-law, I thought my sister answered the call."
He Sichen and Ye Songqing exchanged pleasantries with each other, and then apologized to each other, "Brother-in-law, actually, Ziling and I just had a little friction. I was so angry that I called our parents over. You see, you even made a special phone call from overseas to check on me. I'm so embarrassed..."
Ye Songqing happily accepted her brother-in-law's apology, "It's okay. You are my brother-in-law. You don't even have the kind words from my own family. Hey, where is my sister? Give her your phone and I'll teach her a few words."
He Sichen looked at Ling Liang in embarrassment.
Ling Liang was indifferent.
He Sichen had to make up an excuse, "Ziling is not at home. She said she has not been feeling well these past two days and went to the hospital for a check-up."
Ye Songqing complained about his sister, chatted with her brother-in-law, and hung up the phone.
He Sichen returned the phone to Ling Liang, looked at Ling Liang's face carefully, and said if he had nothing to say, "Your brother is still very concerned about your sister."
Seeing that Ling Liang didn't respond, he laughed dryly and fell silent.
After a while, Ling Liang commented: "A dog cannot spit out ivory from its mouth."
He Sichen's eyes suddenly showed humiliation. He thought he was the one who was called a dog by his wife.
Seeing him like this, Ling Liang kindly comforted him, "Don't be angry. You seem to have misunderstood. I'm talking about you two, not just you."
He Sichen: "...he is your brother."
"So what. He doesn't treat his sister as a human being, so why should I respect him?"
Ling Liang said in disgust: "Such a piece of trash is actually my brother, and he still dislikes me for embarrassing him. Why don't you even look in the mirror to see what you look like?"
"He should be lucky that he is abroad, otherwise..."
Ling Liang didn't say any more, but everyone understood what he meant.
He Sichen lamented for his brother-in-law for two seconds, but Ling Liang suddenly changed the topic, "Ye Songqing's matter is not important. Now, do we have to settle the account that you called my parents here?"
He Sichen's face immediately turned pale and all the blood faded.
He thought that if his brother-in-law interrupted him, his wife would forget about it, but it seemed that he thought too well.
All four rooms in the He family were occupied. The original owner's parents rested in a nearby hotel at night, and the son-in-law specially booked a room for them.
