What's Wrong with Getting a New Wife? [Rebirth] [MTL]

Chapter 84

After Yan Congyu waited for a while, he found it even harder to remain calm when he heard the clanging sounds coming from the kitchen.

　　Little Guji is so cruel.

　　When Gu Ji was pouring water, he accidentally knocked over the shelf, and the kitchen utensils on it scattered all over the floor. He picked them up one by one and put them back.

　　Yan Congyu felt uneasy and walked nervously to the kitchen door and took a peek. He saw Gu Ji holding a spatula in his hand.

　　Xiaoyan's heart almost stopped here, her face turned pale, and she didn't know how she got back to the living room.

　　While Gu Ji was waiting for the water to boil, he remembered that Yan Congyu had not eaten dinner yet, so he looked around the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat. The refrigerator was empty, without even a vegetable leaf.

　　Finally he found instant noodles from the cupboard.

　　Although instant noodles are not very healthy, it is difficult to buy other ingredients so late at night, and instant noodles are one of the few foods that Gu Ji can cook.

　　A few minutes later, Gu Ji brought out a bowl of steaming hot instant noodles and placed it on the dining table. "Xiaoyan, just have a few bites. I'll take you to eat something good tomorrow."

　　During this time, Yan Congyu anticipated countless possibilities in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. But when he saw this bowl of noodles, he was suddenly stunned.

...Before he was beaten, he was given a sweet date to eat?

　　But no matter what, Yan Congyu couldn't refuse a bowl of instant noodles cooked by Gu Ji himself.

　　Gu Ji had finished his meal in the evening. He pulled a chair and sat next to Yan Congyu. "You eat yours. I'll settle the bill first."

　　Yan Congyu coughed twice and asked weakly, "...Do you have to calculate it so clearly?"

　　"Of course." Gu Ji glanced at Yan Congyu, "It's not clear, you will do the same thing again next time."

　　Yan Congyu immediately promised: "I won't do it again."

　　Gu Ji held his chin and looked at him, then turned his head back after a few seconds, "I don't believe it."

　　Yan Congyu: "............"

　　Where did Gu Ji's trust in him go?

　　Gu Ji was not in a hurry. After sitting next to Yan Congyu for a while, he stood up and walked around the living room twice. When he had finished eating, he asked calmly, "Then shall I start?"

　　"Wait--" Yan Congyu stood up suddenly, went back to the sofa and took something, handed it to Gu Ji, and asked in a low voice: "Can you use this?" 

　　Gu Ji lowered his eyes and looked over, and saw a black leather belt. He took it, stretched it in his hand twice, and found that it was just an ordinary belt, nothing special, and asked: "What do you need this for?"

　　Yan Congyu bit his lip and uttered a few words, "...hit me."

　　If he couldn't escape this, this was his only bottom line, at least use decent tools.

　　Gu Ji paused, raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Congyu, as if he had guessed the reason.

　　Xiaoyan thought that what he meant by settling the score... was he going to beat him?

　　Gu Ji said it, threatened it, but he had no intention of really hitting him. Even if he hit him, at most he would just slap the fleshy parts that didn't hurt. Why would he need a belt?
