88 Chapter 88: A Venomous Snake That Could Bite
Realizing that she seemed to have made a low-level mistake, Qin Xiaoyao looked a little embarrassed.
However, since she had already put down the handcart, she might as well take a break.
Song Que glanced at Qin Xiaoyao, who was still standing in front of the handcart, and his beautiful brows furrowed.
He then said, “I’m thirsty.”
Qin Xiaoyao went up to Song Que instinctively.
Then, she took out a bamboo container filled with water from a basket and handed it to Song Que.
That was right. Ever since she had a handcart, she always brought a bamboo container filled with drinking water with her when she delivered goods to avoid feeling too thirsty on the road.
Qin Xiaoyao didn’t realize that Liu Daniu and Big Girl Li were looking at her with an even more bewildered expression.
Did… did she have to be so attentive?
Wasn’t the bamboo container right beside Song Que? Didn’t he have hands?
Song Que had also noticed their gazes, but he did not take it to heart.
He took the bamboo container from Qin Xiaoyao, opened it, and started drinking.
Qin Xiaoyao stared at Song Que’s sexy Adam’s apple moving up and down as he drank the water, and she was almost lost in thought.
Her attractive husband was actually drinking water from her bamboo container…
Did this count as… what was that called?
After a while, Song Que finished his water and passed the bamboo container back to Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao hurriedly took it.
Then, she screwed the cover back on and put the bamboo container back in its original place.
After doing all this, she still stayed by Song Que’s side, as if she was waiting for orders.
This scene once again shocked Liu Daniu and Big Girl Li.
In particular, Big Girl Li’s mood was really conflicted and contradictory at this moment.
This was her Sister Sanya, the almost omnipotent Sister Sanya, and yet she was bowing and scraping to Song Que!
Okay… it was her Sister Sanya who forced this marriage on Song Que.
However, Song Que couldn’t be such a bully!
That was right. At this moment, Big Girl Li felt it was too unjust to her Sister Sanya.
The more she looked, the angrier she got. Big Girl Li couldn’t hold it in anymore and was ready to say a few words for her Sister Sanya.
However, just as she stepped forward, her man grabbed her arm.
At this moment, Song Que also spoke up.
“Let’s continue.”
“Okay!” Qin Xiaoyao quickly answered and prepared to push the handcart.
However, Song Que stopped her with a look.
Then, Qin Xiaoyao saw that her attractive husband had shifted his annoyed gaze away from her to Liu Daniu.
Liu Daniu was shocked.
“I… I’ll push the cart!” He quickly said.
Then, he quickly left his wife and walked towards the handcart.
Only then did Song Que retract his gaze. He leaned against the basket of vegetables and closed his eyes.
Qin Xiaoyao was a little shocked. She only realized something when the handcart set off again.
Then, a ‘goofy’ smile appeared on her face.
Song Que, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and saw her expression, causing him to give a scornful snort.
Big Girl Li was standing right beside Qin Xiaoyao, and she saw everything that had happened.
She couldn’t hold it in anymore.
However, she was once again pulled back by someone, and this time, it was Qin Xiaoyao.
Then, she saw her Sister Sanya turn her head and give her a smile that told her to ‘calm down.’
Big Girl Li could only glare at Song Que and suppress her anger, who had closed his eyes again.
No! She had to find a chance to talk to her Sister Sanya!
How could a man be pampered like this? Someone like Song Que should be whipped with a cane!
“Just whip him a few times, and let’s see if he still dares to act like this!” she thought.
In her mind, she imagined her Sister Sanya whipping Song Que, and the scene of Song Que crying, “Wah! Wah!”. Only then did Big Girl Li feel she had finally vented some of her anger.
She even had a smile on her face.
Qin Xiaoyao, who was watching from the side, was feeling somewhat perplexed.
The group of people walked very quickly, and they soon arrived at the city gate.
After queuing up and paying the entrance fee, they entered Mountain Spring Town.
“Send me to the Cirrus Loft Bookstore first.” When they reached the fork in the road, Liu Daniu was about to push the handcart to Fortune Mansion when Song Que suddenly spoke.
Liu Daniu was stunned and stopped the handcart.
As for Big Girl Li, her face was filled with anger again.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao quickly went to take over from Liu Daniu.
“You two wait here. I’ll send my husband to the Cirrus Loft Bookstore first. I’ll be back in a while,” she said as she walked.
Thereafter, before the couple could reply, Qin Xiaoyao pulled Liu Daniu away and grabbed the handle of the handcart.
Then, she quickly lifted the handcart and pushed it away.
When the handcart was more than ten meters away, Big Girl Li couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“What… what the hell is he doing?” She pointed at the handcart and cursed out loud.
Liu Daniu quickly pulled down his wife’s arm to restrain Big Girl Li.
“Enough! Lower your voice. Don’t let Brother Song hear you!” he whispered.
Big Girl Li immediately looked up at Liu Daniu, her eyes even angrier than before.
“So what if he heard me? He’s a man, but he’s using all sorts of methods to torture my Sister Sanya! Why should he still be afraid of people talking about him?”
“And you! Why are you afraid of him?”
Wasn’t he just a weak scholar? To put it bluntly, he looked like a woman. What was so great about him?
At this point, Big Girl Li was extremely angry with Song Que. How could she remember that she herself had once imagined beautiful future visions of Song Que?
If anyone reminded her now, she would spit in his face.
“Enough. I… I’m not scared.” Liu Daniu said guiltily as his wife stared at him.
Of course, he was afraid.
In Brook Falls Village, Song Que was the smartest among his peers.
Though he might appear weak and powerless, in reality, he was very ‘brutal.’
None of the people he targeted had a good ending.
When Song Que was young, the children in the village kept hearing the adults at their own homes praise him. Naturally, they did not like him.
Seeing that he was weak, they teased him a lot.
However, all those who laid a finger on him ended up in trouble.
At best, the perpetrator would be beaten up by his family because of this mistake.
At worst, the perpetrator fell into River Ringwaters and almost drowned.
And Song Que happened to see him fall. He was standing on the shore, watching the child struggling in the water with an icy cold expression.
In the end, nothing happened to the child, and in fact, Song Que was the one who saved him.
He even received the gratitude of the child’s family and the child himself in the end.
As a result, the child started to protect him, and no one in the village dared to provoke Song Que anymore.
Daniu was the only one who knew that the child had most likely fallen into the water because of Song Que.
Ever since then, he had been afraid of Song Que.
He did not dare to get close to Song Que and even stayed far away.
In retrospect, it had been ten years since that incident.
He thought that he had already forgotten about that matter.
However, now he realized that he couldn’t forget it at all.
Song Que only needed to look at Daniu once, and he would feel a chill in his heart. How would he dare to go against Song Que?
That was a venomous snake that could bite!
Big Girl Li looked at her man in disbelief.
Before she could ask, she heard Liu Daniu continue, “What do you know? Don’t meddle in the affairs of a married couple!”
Seeing Big Girl Li’s expression darken, Liu Daniu continued, “Brother Song is deliberately causing trouble, but it’s not just to torment Sister Sanya!”
