Chapter 1414: Do All the Housework for a Month
Cai Anqi never imagined that she’d fall for the old woman’s trap.
Cai Anqi was so choked with anger that she felt like she was dying. She felt her heart ache for her clothes, shoes, and bags. They were all her precious babies.
Ning Shu added, “And don’t tattle on me in front of Wang Bo and make him get your stuff back. I’ll show the picture to Wang Bo if that happens.”
“You...” Go die! Cai Anqi was viciously cursing Ning Shu in her heart but was helplessly begging on the outside. “Mother, what on earth will it take for you to return them to me?”
“There is no meaning in pursuing things of the past,” said Ning Shu. “But now that you and Wang Bo are married, you should be loyal to each other and maintain this marriage.”
“Do all the housework for a month, and I’ll give it back to you,” stated Ning Shu.
“Impossible,” blurted Cai Anqi without thinking.
“Then I’ll just have to destroy your precious clothes then.” Ning Shu said flippantly.
“You dare!” Cai Anqi almost lunged at Ning Shu, her expression sinister.
Ning Shu pointed to her room that had been turned upside down by Cai Anqi. “The first thing is to tidy up the things in the room for me.”
Cai Anqi’s face was flushed with anger, and she stood there motionless.
“I’ll tell my parents that you’re bullying me,” said Cai Anqi.
“Oh.” Ning Shu’s face turned expressionless. “Then call all your family so we can meet in person. Who knows what expression your parents will make when they see this picture. If they don’t care, I will just disregard it and paste it along with your phone number in the hallways. It’s some form of work, at the very least. Since you’ll be working, I won’t have you handle housework.”
Cai Anqi: ...
Cai Anqi was so upset, but she relented and started shoving all the clothes on the ground into the wardrobe.
Ning Shu said with a stony face. “Hang it up and fold it neatly.”
Cai Anxi shook the clothes in her hands roughly, her eyes full of contempt. She looked at the dark-colored clothes and silently called them old-fashioned.
Ning Shu watched Cai Anqi from the side.
Cai Anqi wasn’t patient enough to quietly do chores. The more she did it, the more infuriated she got. She really wanted to throw these things on the ground and stomp on them.
As Cai Anqi unwillingly tidied up Ning Shu’s room, she said to Ning Shu. “Now, you should hand me my things back.”
Ning Shu shook her head. “I told you to do housework for a month. I’ll give it back to you in a month.”
Cai Anqi desperately wanted to strangle this old woman for daring to touch her precious babies.
When Cai Anqi left the room, she deliberately bumped against Ning Shu with her shoulders. She wanted to make this old woman suffer. It would be best if the old woman would just fall to the ground and become half-paralyzed.
But Ning Shu didn’t avoid it. When she was hit by Cai Anqi, she didn’t budge. Instead, Cai Anqi felt pain shoot up her arm and shoulder like she had smashed against an iron plate.
Cai Anqi rubbed her shoulder and angrily went back to her room, slamming the door.
Ning Shu took out a pen and a notebook and went to knock on her door.
Ning Shu kept knocking at the door rhythmically, which soon became very annoying. Cai Anqi, in her room, tried covering her ears to ignore Ning Shu. But the knocks felt like they were landing on her brain, which drove her mad. Finally, she couldn’t stand it anymore and yanked the door open.
“What do you want now?” Cai Anqi yelled at Ning Shu.
“The house hasn’t been dusted for several days. Today’s the big cleaning day.” Ning Shu brightly smiled.
Cai Anqi didn’t even bother replying and just slammed the door.
Big cleaning day? There was no way she would do such a thing.
