Chapter 142 - It''s Fun to Make His Man Angry


    “If he''s truly gone, why are you so adamant about joining him?”


    Huangfu Shao ruthlessly exposed Nong Mobai, rolling his eyes in resignation, as if he had grown ustomed to Nong Mobai''s reactions.


    “Who said I would? I have no intention of following those people into oblivion.”


    Yet, as he uttered these words, a wave of sadness washed over him, etching pain across his face.


    “Okay, okay, let''s drop this subject for now. If he ever finds out you''re indulging in such affairs, I''ll be signing my own death warrant!” A friendly caution.


    This time, Nong Mobai refrained from retorting and instead, his eyes darkened. Nobody could fathom his thoughts until he suddenly erupted, “Then why doesn''t hee out and teach me a lesson? Disappearing for years and not even bothering to contact me!”


    After venting his frustration, tears clouded his vision. He turned away to wipe them away.


    Perhaps Nong Mobai didn''t enjoy being with another man; perhaps he did it just to provoke a reaction from someone who had been absent for years.


    But, as he himself had admitted, he had been trying to do so for years, and the person he longed for had yet to reappear.


    “Big brother, why bring up this matter?” Huangfu Qiao nudged Huangfu Shao in the stomach, signaling him to change the topic and avoid upsetting Nong Mobai.


    Huangfu Shao understood the sentiment but couldn''t help feeling a pang of sorrow as he observed Nong Mobai''s self-deprecating demeanor.


    “Alright, I won''t mention it anymore,” Huangfu Shao sighed, acknowledging that he hadn''t intended to torment Nong Mobai.


    “Brother Mobai, did youe to see Xiaojie?” Huangfu Qiao redirected the conversation.


    Nong Mobai, still emotionally fragile, turned to wipe his tears before asking in a hoarse voice, “Who is Xiaojie?”


    Huangfu Qiao was taken aback. “Huh? Huh? Weren''t you here to see Xiaojie? Oh, wait, Xiaojie is Brother Mu''s wife!”


    Realizing the confusion, Huangfu Qiao borated further.


    “So Mu Sifa''s wife is named Xiaojie!” Nong Mobaimented, “Your big brother didn''t mention it during the phone call earlier!”


    “Oh, Xiaojie? Odd, why does the name sound familiar? Wasn''t the cute boy who arranged to meet Mu Sifawei also calling himself Xiaojie?”


    “Mu Sifa''s wife is really named Xiaojie?” Huangfu Qiao questioned, hoping it was just a coincidence.


    “Yes, that''s right! Shang Xiaojie! Big Brother Mu''s wife,” Huangfu Qiao confirmed, oblivious to Nong Mobai''s confusion.


    “Shang…?” Nong Mobai was stunned, his eyes widening. “Shang Xiaojie? Isn''t he Shang Minjie''s younger brother? Huh? Huh?” He stared nkly at Huangfu Shao.


    If it was indeed the same person, didn''t that mean Mu Sifa was involved with Shang Minjie''s family? How did they end up together?


    “What''s the matter, Huangfu Shao?” Nong Mobai waspletely bewildered.


    “Well, it''s a long story, but Uncle agreed to a wife switch, so that''s how it happened.”


    Huangfu Shao''s nonchnt words carried an undertone of helplessness, and his expression remained distant.


    Nong Mobai couldn''t help but detect Huangfu Shao''s resignation in his casual words, and he struggled toe to terms with the reality.


    “No way! Uncle agreed to this? But it''s a man!”


    Nong Mobai briefly contemted his chances. No, this wasn''t the time to think about that.


    “What about Shang Minjie? Can they just let it slide?”


    “How could there be no repercussions? After tangling with the Mu family, they even showed up at the Mu Sifa Hospital, where I heard they had an altercation with Xiaojie.”


    Perhaps Huangfu Shao understood that these events were inevitable.


    “Oh my goodness! What did I miss?”


    “Mu Sifa fought so hard to be a man; I really wanted to witness it! What a shame.”
