Chapter 187 - Fu Hua Pets His Wife
After consoling his sad wife, Fu Hua brought a warm towel to clean her face, before ringing the bell for her servant to come to the bedroom.
Fu Hua ordered her to bring Jia Li"s lunch to the bedroom. The servant took the order and left.
"You are allowing me to eat here?" Jia Li asked.
"Yes. I bet you are already exhausted from crying." Fu Hua said and went into the inner room to change out of his clothes.
Jia Li felt her heart warm up with his treatment. She smiled and released a long sigh.
Now that she thought about it, she has noticed that Fu Hua was indulging her more and more. She didn"t know if that treatment will last for long but she will be greedy and enjoy it while it lasts.
After Fu Hua changed out of his clothes, he was in time to see the servant bring the food to the room.
After serving the food, the servant left.
Fu Hua sat beside Jia Li on the bed as he opened the plates. He picked up the spoon and scooped some soup before blowing on it.
Jia Li thought he wanted to taste the food but was surprised when he brought the spoon to her lips.
"Open your mouth!" Fu Hua said to her, and she obeyed as instructed.
"How is it, do you like it?" Fu Hua asked with his gaze on her.
"I like it. I will eat myself." Jia Li said as she tried to take the spoon from him but Fu Hua moved the spoon away from her reach.
"I will feed you." He said as he put down the spoon and used the fork and knife to cut another side dish before sending it into her mouth.
Jia Li was happy with the love he was showing her and did not insist on feeding herself anymore.
"Next time, don"t cry. I don"t like to see you cry."
Before Jia Li could jubilate because of his heartfelt words he added, "You look ugly when you cry."
Jia Li"s facial expression changed and she refused to eat the food he just brought to her lips.
"Open your mouth." Fu Hua said to her.
"I don"t want you to feed me, I can eat by myself." Jia Li said stubbornly as she folded her arms below her chest.
Her actions caused her b.o.o.bs to rise because of the pressure underneath them.
Fu Hua glanced at her chest before fixing his gaze back on her. "Are you trying to seduce me? You have been starving me for several days now, are you throwing an invitation to me?"
Jia Li glanced at her chest and saw her visible b.o.o.bs before taking her hands off. She wondered how just seeing a glimpse of her b.o.o.bs could easily turn him on and what did he mean by she has been starving him for several days.
Fu Hua brought the spoon to her lips but she still refused to open her mouth, so he had no choice than to threaten her.
"If you don"t eat obediently like you"ve been doing before, I will take it that you have enough strength to serve me tonight. I won"t just let you go after one round because you have starved me for a long time. I will only be satisfied if we do it 5 times."
His words were enough for Jia Li to wise up and obediently eat her food without throwing a tantrum. Fu Hua was glad that his threats worked.
"Are you not hungry?" Jia Li asked with a careful gaze.
"Do you want to feed me?" Fu Hua asked.
Jia Li didn"t reply as she saw that there was no point in trying to care for him.
After feeding her, Fu Hua said to her, "Lie down and rest, I will go downstairs for lunch and make some calls before returning."
Jia Li laid down and watched him cover her with the duvet.
It was really exhausting to have cried for long, plus her pregnancy. These past few days she has been feeling a bit lethargic because of the pregnancy, so not quite long after her head hit the pillows, she dozed off.
After having his lunch, Fu Hua made some calls. Since he found out that Bai Fen dared to abuse his wife in public and even caused her to cry and be unhappy for a long time while she was pregnant, he decided to deal with her but not directly.
He sent the contact of the person that sent him those pictures of Jia Li and Li Huan to someone to run a simple investigation.
What he wanted to know was very simple. He wanted to know who had that contact.
When he confirmed it really did belong to Bai Fen, he forwarded the message and the evidence from the investigation to his old man to take care of.
Fu Hua didn"t want to step directly into the matter because his ways of doing things were too straightforward and cruel.
He understood that the Bai and the Fu families has known each other for decades and because he knew if he handled the matter he will ruin whatever relations that was left, he had to hand the matter over to his old man. He would be the best person to solve the issue, using his methods.
When Butler Lu shows the message to Grandfather Fu, he was very angry and pounded his palms on his work desk.
"Who gave the Bai family the right to commit such an offense?! That woman hurt my precious granddaughter-in-law and that is unforgivable! Look at the kind of friends Fu Hee makes, very useless people!" Grandfather Fu said angrily.
"Sir, calm down. Don"t put yourself under pressure for insignificant people." Butler Lu said.
He was angry because Jia Li was accused and embarra.s.sed in public. He recognized the young man in the picture with Jia Li and knew he was the same person Jia Li told him about once last year.
The old man had noticed that the young man and his mother had eyes on Jia Li and had to bring Jia Li away from her town because he already had plans to make her marry Fu Hua.
Butler Lu knew the situation very well and also wanted that woman from the Bai family to be taught a lesson.
