“What she’s going through is her own business since she chose that man and gave birth to that child. It’s only right that she faces the consequences. The reason I’m telling you all this is because I want you to know that a person with no abilities is bound to be played by fate, ”
“Fortunately, I have the ability to protect you and our little family,” Yigol said.
Suri couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Here you go again, that’s what you really wanted to say, right? You love to blow your own horn. I’ve never met anyone as narcissistic as you.”
“Wifey, I’m just telling the truth, okay? I want to assure you that I’m here to protect you, no matter what. So you can do whatever you want, without any hesitation,” Yigol responded.
He said this because he believed that Suri had good character and wouldn’t mess around unless someone provoked her. She was not the type to stir up trouble.
Yigol thought for a moment that it had been a long time since he received any rewards from the System. Although he seemed to have everything he needed now, he still felt something was missing if he couldn’t take advantage of the System.
Life was too boring, and it was fun to squeeze benefits out of the System when there was nothing to do.
For a while, Suri had been busy taking care of the injured Yigol, so she didn’t have time to show off her outstanding husband. That was understandable.
But now that his injuries were mostly healed, he really couldn’t sit idly by any longer.
“Tsk, you jerk, what do you think I am? A brainless vase that only gets into trouble?” Suri asked unhappily.
At this point, Yigol didn’t know how to respond.
Suri’s words reminded Yigol of Quinn Powell.
“Wifey, what do you think we should do about Quinn?” Yigol asked.
Though Quinn hadn’t directly retaliated, her actions almost brought crisis to them. Who knows what kind of trouble she would cause in the future if her revenge didn’t work this time?
If they didn’t teach her a lesson, she might never give up.
“Quinn, huh…” Suri thought for a moment and said, “That woman is someone who can only rely on men. She has no skills of her own, so I don’t think she can cause much trouble.”
“Better safe than sorry. We already know that this time it was her doing. If we don’t remind her, she might think she’s invincible and hurt you eventually. That would be terrible,”
“I previously said that the Presley family’s supermarket would go bankrupt, but after today’s events, I told people in my company not to target the Presley family anymore. So their supermarket won’t go bankrupt, and she might think we were just bluffing in the group chat and feel even more pleased with herself,”
“It’s alright for me since I don’t have to see what they do, but since she’s your classmate and knows all your other classmates, it would be unfair to you if she kept annoying you in the chat group,”
After visiting Suri’s childhood room, Yigol had a better understanding of her. Her sensitivity ran deeper than he initially thought.
She appeared cold and independent, but that wasn’t what she wanted. She also craved friends, warmth, and protection.
It’s just that there was never anyone around her who understood her.
People who didn’t know her might think she was aloof and unapproachable, but deep down, she was eager to establish good relationships with those around her.
At the age when Suri needed the most care, her family went through that incident, forcing her to learn how to protect herself. It seemed like she wanted to tell her mother that people could only rely on themselves.
However, for her, it was also a helpless choice. If she could be protected by someone else, why would she need to put on such heavy armor herself?
Although Suri may seem indifferent after experiencing injustice, those heartaches and sorrows were still brewing in her heart. It would be great if she could slowly digest them. The worst-case scenario is that she might collapse one day under the pressure of heartache.
Before, he wasn’t in her life, so he let it be.
But now that he’s in her life, he has to protect her well. He wants to provide her with warmth, and only then can they love each other for a long time.
“So, we can’t let this go. They used to cause a commotion in the chat group, right? Now let’s teach Quinn a lesson in the chat group. Wifey, give me your phone,” Yigol had a plan to deal with Quinn.
“I hope everyone around you can bless you, see your goodness, and not just be blindly jealous and hurl malicious words at you,”
“No, I don’t need it,” Suri immediately refused.
Yigol overbearingly said, “Wifey, I’m not asking for your permission, I’m informing you. I have to do this, give me your phone,”
“Why, why? I won’t give it to you,” Suri hesitated for a moment, but still refused.
“Because I’m your husband, and I need to check your phone. It’s an inspection,” Yigol said seriously.
“No, don’t do it. Honey, I don’t need it, really,” Suri clung tightly to her phone.
Seeing that negotiation wouldn’t work, Yigol suddenly got up and placed both hands on the sofa beside Suri, gradually moving closer to her.
“What, what, what are you doing?” Suri asked in a panic, her body retreating backward until she could no longer dodge, her back pressed against the sofa.
Suri, who had just been so dominant, suddenly turned into a timid mouse, quickly covering her mouth, “Fine, take it! Isn’t that enough?”
Yigol couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Had his secret kiss left a psychological shadow on her?
“If you had given it to me earlier, we would’ve settled this, right?” Yigol finally achieved his goal and held the phone, distancing himself from Suri a bit.
He was looking forward to doing something, but he didn’t need to cherish every single opportunity now. They were already very close, so he didn’t have to do things he wanted only when they were lying in the same bed.
Now, he needed to deal with Quinn first.
Yigol found that teasing Suri, who appeared to be a tigress but was actually made of paper, was quite amusing. A little provocation from him, and she caved.
However, he enjoyed it. If she eagerly threw herself on him every time he wanted something, life would be dull, and he might not feel very passionate about Suri..
