Chapitre 66: Chapter 66
To say Meixiu is tired and worn out would be the right words to describe what she's feeling at the moment.
Xiaohui couldn't help but agree with what her mother said the night they had a conversation with Meixiu listening to them.
She couldn't handle any of Xiaowen's childish antics, so she didn't have a choice but to agree with her visiting her grandmother with a stranger.
Right now, Xiaowen ordered Meixiu to grab her bags and load them in the trunk of Tingfeng, as she didn't let Tingfeng help with anything.
The guy, wanting to spend some time with Xiaohui, quickly agreed with the outing that Xiaowen apparently prepared for them.
All he thought was that it was only the three of them—Xiaohui, Xiaowen, and himself—but he completely ignored the fact that Xiaohui wouldn't come with anyone without Meixiu.
Or go somewhere without her knowing.
So upon arriving at the Zheng family house, he couldn't help but feel upset that Xiaowen had just completely lied to him.
Xiaowen explained everything, saying that her daughter wouldn't come or even agree on things if they involved Tingfeng, so she didn't have a choice but to agree.
As she said, "She's acting like a child".
Which is the polar opposite of what really happened that night.
Meixiu couldn't help but just shake her head upon hearing what her mother-in-law just said.
Meixiu pulls the trunk door down and sighs heavily before looking at the door and seeing Xiaohui going out, struggling with her luggage.
She quickly went to her wife and put her hands on the luggage, but another hand put theirs on it, making her look up only to meet Tingfeng's glaring eyes.
"I can do this."
Tingfeng said, pulling the luggage forcefully towards him as Meixiu slightly stumbled in the process.
Meixiu smiles at her before pushing Tingfeng's hand away from the luggage.
"I can handle this; it's my wife's things."
Tingfeng scoffs before he grabs the luggage from Meixiu's hands, pulling it a little too hard and making the girl stumble a lot.
Xiaohui went to help Meixiu balance herself, but she got dragged down on the floor, with her on top of Meixiu as the taller woman put her arms around Xiaohui's waist.
The girl on top has her eyes closed, waiting to feel the floor, but all she could feel was a warm and soft body flushing a little too close to her.
She opens her eyes and widens them upon seeing Meixiu staring back at her with worry in her eyes.
"Are you alright?"
Meixiu asks, her hands going in to cup the smaller's cheeks, and feels it become hot as the red hue goes to scatter around her face.
Xiaohui was about to speak when someone held her up and forced her to stand up. Looking at the culprit, she saw her mother, who held a glare at Meixiu.
"How dare you hold my daughter like that!?"
She yelled before pulling Xiaohui away from Meixiu. The girl stood up from the ground before she was confronted by Tingfeng, who pulled her with the use of her collar.
"What the hell was that?"
"What?"
Meixiu asks, her eyes looking at Tingfeng in confusion as to why the guy is acting like a weirdo in front of her.
Oh right, he likes Xiaohui, and it's sad that the girl is married to someone.
Meixiu's mouth formed a circle before she smiled widely, feeling a little proud as she managed to make the right decision without panicking when seeing her father-in-law.
"I can do that for her; she's my wife anyway."
Tingfeng sneered before his fist landed on Meixiu's cheeks. The girl dropped to the floor as Tingfeng went on top of her and continued to punch her.
"You're an asshole!"
He yelled, grabbing the attention of Xiaohui and Xiaowen, who were about to argue with one another yet again.
Xiaohui's eyes widen, and she quickly goes to push Tingfeng away from Meixiu, squatting to look at her wife's bruised face.
"Oh my! What is he thinking!?"
Xiaohui voiced out her thoughts, her finger ghosting Meixiu's right cheek as the girl hissed in pain.
"Tingfeng! Are you ok?"
Xiaowen quickly went towards Tingfeng's side and helped the guy stand up from the pavement.
He scoffs before forcefully pulling his arms away from Xiaowen, glaring at Meixiu in the process.
"You're lucky Xiaohui's here because if she's not, then you're dead."
Tingfeng threatened before he went towards his car and sat down. Xiaowen glanced at the couple before running to the car, which drove off.
Xiaohui sighs as she expected her mother to help the two of them, but she just went with Tingfeng, probably to get a head start on going to Grandma Peng's hometown.
She looked at her watch and saw that it was already two in the afternoon.
"Come on, let's get your wounds treated first."
Xiaohui guided Meixiu back into the house before she went to the kitchen to find the first aid kit.
Meixiu's eyes bore into the coffee table, glaring at it and imagining that it was Tingfeng's annoying face.
Her thoughts got cut off when someone tapped her shoulder. Looking at the culprit, her eyes met Xiaohui's, which held a gentle expression.
"Come on, let's get you treated."
Xiaohui pulls the cotton ball from the container, adding a little bit of alcohol before looking at Meixiu's wounds.
"Why did you even provoke Tingfeng?"
"I wasn't saying anything; I was just telling him facts."
Meixiu said, wincing as the cotton ball came into contact with her wounds.

"... storm will likely break out later in the evening."
The radio rang as the news broke out. Meixiu and Xiaohui are both on the road already, taking a little longer as Xiaohui slows the drive.
Not clearly that good at driving and not wanting to disturb Meixiu's healing process, she drives very carefully to not cause any accidents.
"Baby, you can drive a little faster."
"No, we need to be careful."
Meixiu sighs and shakes her head, looking at the road and seeing that no car is coming their way.
"There's no car that's driving around."
"Still, you heard what the radio just said."
Upon speaking, the roof of the car can be heard creating a sound, causing the two to look around and see that the rain is starting to fall from the sky.
"I thought it'd start at night?"
Meixiu said, a little confused, as she looked at the radio time and saw that it was just 6:30.
"It's continuing to rain heavily."
Xiaohui said, slowing down more as the rain hit harder. Meixiu sighs before she leans towards the driver's seat.
"Stop for awhile, and let's wait for it to lie low."
Xiaohui nodded as she let Meixiu guide her to park at the side, turning the car off with the heater still on.
Xiaohui turns to the side to look at Meixiu, confusing the taller, as Meixiu also turned to the side to face Xiaohui.
"I think this is the best time we could talk more."
"Aren't we talking for, like, the past 4 years?"
Meixiu raises her eyebrows as Xiaohui shakes her head, smirking at her.
"No, I meant a lot more deeply."
"How deeply do you want it to be?"
"Maybe we could get to know each other more."
Meixiu sighs as she looks away, shaking her head in the process. Xiaohui looks at her with furrowed eyebrows.
"Don't you want to know more about me?"
"If it's you, of course I'm willing, but baby, you don't want to hear my story."
Xiaohui looks at Meixiu in confusion.
"Why?"
"It's messed up."
Meixiu looks at her with all seriousness.
"You don't want to share it with me?"
