Chapter 1399: Youre Not the One Cooking

Cai Anqi wanted Ning Shu to cook, but in the end, she brought up menopause. Unable to say anything, Cai Anqi was left fuming.

This old woman really thought of herself as a rich elderly lady who lived comfortably.

Cai Anqi was left with no choice but to order, but she wasnt as extravagant this time. There were only three dishes and one soup.

It was a far cry from the feast she had ordered for lunch that had filled half of the table.

When the food delivery arrived, she took out her wallet to pay with a dark expression.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She was supposed to be a married woman. You marry a man to be taken care of and fed for a lifetime. So why was she being forced to support this entire family?

Cai Anqi glared at Ning Shu, who was setting the table, and said to her, Since my poor mother isnt feeling well enough to take care of the household, I think w.a.n.g Bos salary should be handed to me.

Ning Shu lifted her brows and said, Lets first wait for w.a.n.g Bo to come back. Lets see what he has to say.

Cai Anqis tense expression eased a little. w.a.n.g Bo would definitely hand her all his money as long as she tried to please him a little.

w.a.n.g Bo, who came back from a days hard work, was feeling exhausted. Cai Anqi went to greet him, and the first sentence that came out of her mouth was, w.a.n.g Bo, youll give me your salary card, wont you?

w.a.n.g Bo was stunned by the sudden demand. With a dazed look on his face, w.a.n.g Bo turned towards Ning Shu for an explanation.

Ning Shu said, Go wash your hands. Lets eat first.

w.a.n.g Bo walked past Cai Anqi and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Cai Anqis expression turned dark as she stomped her feet in anger. She got frustrated seeing w.a.n.g Bo being so obedient to Ning Shus words.

w.a.n.g Bo washed his hands, sat on the chair, and looked at the dishes on the table. After a moment of silence, he asked, Is this another takeout?

What else do you think this is? Cai Anqi sat next to w.a.n.g Bo and said, It takes money to order meals. w.a.n.g Bo, Mother isnt in good health and cant take proper care of the household. Please give me your salary card.

w.a.n.g Bo frowned in disapproval and said, I still feel that its better to cook at home.

Its easy for you to say. Youre not the one cooking, retorted Cai Anqi.

w.a.n.g Bo was left shocked by Cai Anqis aggressiveness and couldnt speak a word for a long time.

Ning Shu observed w.a.n.g Bos unhappy face and understood why he was upset.

There wasnt a single dish on the table that w.a.n.g Bo liked. Cai Anqi had only ordered things that she liked.

It could be understood by small details like this when one person didnt care about the other.

Cai Anqi didnt like the dull and wooden w.a.n.g Bo. She chose w.a.n.g Bo only because he was simple-minded. Even if he were to discover something about her, he would ultimately decide to bear with it because of his weak personality.

Although there was a mother-in-law in the family, w.a.n.g Bo and his mother both were too naive and simple. Cai Anqi had been confident that she wouldnt suffer when she married into the family.

Besides, her family had been pressuring her to get married, and all women eventually had to get married. Cai Anqi knew her situation well. If she had married into a family with better conditions, she would surely be abandoned by the husband because she has had several abortions in the past so it wouldnt be easy for her to get pregnant again.

A modest family like w.a.n.g Bos was the better choice for her. They would definitely wors.h.i.+p and cherish her.

w.a.n.g Bos family conditions were okay. w.a.n.g Bo had a steady job, and his family owned a house.

Ning Shu turned towards w.a.n.g Bo and said, Anqi is your wife. Theres nothing wrong with giving her money.

Cai Anqi looked towards Ning Shu with slight suspicion. She wasnt ready to believe that this old woman was suddenly so kind-hearted.
