The wicked sister-in-law is in charge; meals include fish and shrimp.

Chapter 111 Rejection

"Ah Yue, this is a new dish that Luo Luo made, you should try it!"

"You must have worked hard cleaning up at home!"

At the dinner table, Xie He kept putting food on Helian Yue's plate. Seeing that the bowl in front of him was overflowing, she simply took another bowl, filled it with food, and placed it in front of him.

Wen Luozhi curled his lips. All he did every day was chop wood, sweep the yard, and then eat rice. How was that hard work?

Thank you, Auntie.

Helian Yue's voice was clear and pleasant as he looked at Xie He with a smile in his eyes, making Xie He feel overjoyed.

This child is really great! He started helping with chores as soon as his injury started to heal. He's also very well-mannered and knowledgeable, which makes her like him a lot, just like a mother-in-law meeting her son-in-law.

Helian Yue picked up a piece of fish maw and placed it in Wen Luozhi's bowl. "Luo Luo, this is your favorite."

"Mmm, I love it," Wen Luozhi said, shoveling rice into her mouth without even looking up, while Xie He chuckled to himself.

Helian Zhiyan blinked her big, bright eyes, filled with excitement. Her brother had finally figured it out!

Helian Yue's gaze remained fixed on Wen Luozhi, while Wen Zi'an frowned deeply: "We just chased one away this afternoon, how come another one is coming tonight? Don't the parents care!"

He turned to look at Wen Muchuan and Xie He, who were sitting in the main seat. Wen Muchuan was engrossed in eating a piece of pork rib and hadn't noticed them at all.

Looking at Xie He again, seeing her son's eyes looking over and then gesturing towards her daughter, she glared at him directly. Wen Zi'an quickly looked away and lowered his head to eat his rice, feeling wronged.

Why is Mom glaring at him? Shouldn't she be glaring at that stranger?

After finishing her meal, Wen Luozhi wiped her mouth and said to Helian Yue beside her, "Come here, I have something to tell you."

She walked toward the room where Helian Yue lived, and Helian Yue put down his chopsticks and followed behind her.

Wen Zi'an couldn't sit still any longer and jumped up. Xie He grabbed him and gently tapped his head with a chopstick. "Why did you go with them? Your sister must have something important to say."

Xie He glanced over there. Her daughter was always sensible and wouldn't do anything reckless. Besides, Dou Dou had gone in with her, so there was no need to worry.

Once inside, Wen Luozhi sat down first, then pointed to the chair opposite her, saying, "Sit down, let me take your pulse."

Wolf Batian had grown quite a bit. He jumped onto the bed and excitedly howled at her, "When did you learn to diagnose illnesses? You're acting so convincingly, hahaha!"

Wen Luozhi glared at it, then placed her hand on Helian Yue's inch-long ruler and called the system:

Check him out quickly, see how he is. Is his injury healed? Can he leave now?

The system's beeping check sounded in her mind, and the results came out in just a few breaths:

The internal and external injuries have fully healed. There are still a few toxins remaining in the body, so one more dose of medicine will suffice. Also, there is still some kidney deficiency.

Wen Luozhi burst out laughing, took her hand off Helian Yue's hand, and covered her mouth.

She was diagnosed with kidney deficiency last time, and she even added some kidney-tonifying herbs to her medication! But after several courses of treatment, she still has kidney deficiency...

"Lolo"

Helian Yue looked at her helplessly. Last time, after taking her pulse, she didn't shy away from saying that she had kidney deficiency and even held back her laughter for a long time. This time, she thought the diagnosis would be much the same as last time.

Wen Luozhi covered her mouth, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons as she smiled, and shook her head at him.

"It's alright, it's alright, just one more dose of medicine and you'll be fine."

When do you plan to leave?

She winked at Helian Yue, thinking to herself that they should leave quickly, otherwise she felt they would be bored at home with the courtyard gate closed every day.

Helian Yue looked somewhat saddened. Her current appearance seemed to have the words "You should leave now" written all over her face. Didn't she feel any reluctance to part with him?

Wen Luozhi realized she might have been too excited, so she composed herself and said seriously, "What I mean is you should wait until you're fully recovered before you leave. You've been eating and drinking for free for so long, a few more days won't make a difference."

Awooooo!

"If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all. When have people ever eaten for free? Do you think the firewood in the yard will break by itself? Do you think the broom will sweep the yard by itself?"

"Look at how you've described her! You're such a straight woman!"

Wolf Overlord was filled with righteous indignation. It controlled its size according to the normal growth rate, and now when it stood up, it was almost up to her knees.

Wen Luozhi bent down slightly and punched its little belly twice. "What are you barking about?! Shut up!"

Wolf Overlord howled twice in dissatisfaction, then ran behind Helian Yue and bared his teeth at her, "Straight girl! Straight girl! Nya nyah nyah!"

Wen Luozhi laughed and rushed over to hit it, but Helian Yue took out a jade ring from his sleeve and gave it to her.

"Lolo, I'll leave after I finish my medicine."

"I just don't know if I'll be able to come back. If I do, I'll definitely return the money to you. If I can't, you can pawn this button; it's worth quite a bit of money."

He sent all his cash to the Southern Wilderness, and now he has nothing of value left except this.

This jade ring was given to him by his mother when she was still in the mansion. He had one that was connected to it, and the other one is what he is now giving to her.

Wen Luozhi took the item, examined it carefully, and then returned it to Helian Yue, saying, "You should keep this little thing for yourself. If it doesn't come back, I'll accept the money and the free food, drink, and lodging you've already paid for."

The button clearly had another half; how could she not understand Helian Yue's intentions? She might be a bit straightforward, but she wasn't stupid.

Putting aside his identity, all she wanted was to make money and then relax; she couldn't afford to get involved in love at all!

Besides, he has important things to do, and she's just an ordinary person; they're completely incompatible.

The light in Helian Yue's eyes dimmed, and he silently took the jade ring and put it back into his sleeve.

Awooooo!

"Why are you being so slow in accepting a jade button?! I've protected him for so long and he hasn't even offered to give me anything in return!"

"You're so ungrateful! You should be secretly happy that a handsome man is giving you gifts!"

"Warm! Pocket! Pocket!"

Wen Luozhi's fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly as she gritted her teeth and uttered the name that Lang Batian found shameful, word by word.

Sure enough, even Helian Yue couldn't help but chuckle when she shouted it out.

He looked at the little wolf, his eyes seeming to say: So that's your name!

A snow wolf called out the name of a puppy!

Wolf Batian's fur stood on end, and he howled at Wen Luozhi.

"Didn't we agree? In front of outsiders, you have to call me Wolf Overlord!"

Wen Luozhi rushed up behind Helian Yue, picked it up, and sneered at it.

Hmph? Outsider? I see you protecting him like he's your own father and you're yelling at me. Do you even respect me as your meal ticket?

She walked towards the door, and from a distance threw Lang Batian outside, yelling, "Go away!"

Wolf Overlord was thrown upside down by her. After getting up, it shook off the dust and defiantly stuck out its wolf rear end.

Wen Luozhi ran out to chase it, and the two of them chased each other in the yard.

Helian Yue followed and came out, smiling gently at the girl in the yard who was carrying the wolf education.
