Qiao Sha was not willing to leave Jiang Fenhua with Yu Dong even though she knew that there was no way the two of them will do anything immoral with so many people present in the house, she still felt stifled upon seeing Jiang Fenhua call Yu Dong ' Sister Dong' so lovingly.
' She is not even your sister! Why are you clinging to her like that?' Qiao Sha roared in her head, she wanted to scream these words at Jiang Fenhua but that would only make her look petty which was why she pursed her lips and did not say anything to either Yu Dong or Jiang Fenhua.
On the other hand, Magistrate Li knew what was going on in the head of her friend and shook her head, Qiao Sha was a great general but she was someone who had always been muddleheaded. The promise that she made with Zhou Ming was already null and void, instead of hurting both of her husbands, she should have tried to treat them fairly and mend their relationship but now ——
Because of her idiocy, she was neither close to Zhou Ming nor was she close to Jiang Fenhua.
"Let's go," Magistrate Li needed Yu Dong's help which was why she could not watch the scene in front of her silently, in case Qiao Sha offended Yu Dong it will be really troublesome and unlike Qiao Sha whose eyes were green with envy, she could see that neither Jiang Fenhua nor Yu Dong was looking at each other with loving eyes that screamed of an affair.
Their smiles and actions were purely platonic and even Yu Dong's husbands could see that, even Xiao Hua who was yet to be married to Yu Dong was not jealous of Jiang Fenhua and Yu Dong's cordial relationship because he trusted Yu Dong and secondly he could see that there was nothing messy about the relationship between the two of them.
When Jiang Fenhua called Yu Dong his sister, he really meant it in the sense of a platonic sister-and-brother relationship.
She dragged Qiao Sha away from the living room ignoring the glare that the latter sent her way. Though the glare seemed to be filled with the promise of revenge, Magistrate Li was not scared —— she might not look like it but she was just as good as Magistrate Li when it came to swordsmanship.
" Thank you for having us here and listening to our requests," Magistrate Li kept a hold on Qiao Sha's wrist lest the latter dragged Jiang Fenhua forcefully and caused her relationship with him to go down in an abyss, not that it wasn't already but she could at least stop it from plunging even more deeper.
Yu Dong looked at Qiao Sha who was glaring at her and Jiang Fenhua even though the woman tried to suppress it and tried to compose her expression, the anger that she was trying to rein was literally oozing off her skin and Yu Dong who was rather familiar with this gaze since many mers looked at her with googly eyes while their lovers looked at her with the same gaze as Qiao Sha was easily able to cotton on what was going on in Qiao Sha's head.
Unlike Magistrate Li who thought that she will be offended, Yu Dong was actually tickled. She really could not understand what was wrong with Qiao Sha on one hand she pretended as if she did not care about Jiang Fenhua, going as far as degrading him at every chance that she got and yet when the latter was getting close to her, Qiao Sha was glaring at the two of them as if she caught them tangled in bed.
Though Yu Dong understood that Qiao Sha was misunderstanding her and Jiang Fenhua, she deliberately did not clear her misunderstanding. Call her petty but now that she took Jiang Fenhua under her wing, she could not watch this woman disrespecting her brother like this woman did in the past.
The reason Qiao Sha was so at ease with disrespecting Jiang Fenhua was that she took it for granted that the latter will not be able to leave her since he was carrying her child and they already cooked the rice which was why she had to make Qiao Sha realise that Jiang Fenhua though pregnant and unwanted by her, was still a wonderful mer and would be liked by someone else if Qiao Sha did not pick up her big mommy pants and wear them timely.
"It's all my pleasure, Magistrate Li," Yu Dong feigned innocence when Qiao Sha turned to look at her silently asking her to send Jiang Fenhua with the two of them. Instead of asking Jiang Fenhua to leave with his wife, Yu Dong turned to look at Qiao Sha and said with a polite smile, " Don't worry, Marquis Qiao… I will take care of Brother Jiang properly and send him back to the Qiao house before midnight."
As she spoke she bowed and then closed the door of her house before Marquis Qiao could say anything. Magistrate Li who was sharper when it came to such things knew at once what Yu Dong was doing but Qiao Sha who was green with jealousy did not catch the teasing note in Yu Dong's voice as she turned to look at her friend and gritted out, " Why did you stop me from dragging that mer out?"
Magistrate Li was tired of Qiao Sha's drama as well which was why she simply pursed her lips and asked Qiao Sha coldly, " And why will you drag Master Jiang with you? What is he even doing to be dragged when he is pregnant and carrying your child?"
Qiao Sha was used to her friends standing up for Jiang Fenhua, with her brows furrowed she pointed at the closed door of Yu's house and then said in an annoyed voice, " He is in there with Miss Yu and did you not hear how he was calling her sister Dong again and again? Do you not think something is up between the two?"
" I believe that Master Jiang is a man of clean character," said Magistrate Li which earned her a scoff from Qiao Sha, she ignored Qiao Sha's scoff and then raised a brow before delivering a low blow, " And even if there was anything between the two of them…what is it to you? Did you not say that you were only keeping Master Jiang because he is carrying your child and the second you get your child, you will throw him out? Doesn't this work out just perfectly for you? After Master Jiang delivers your child, you will get your heir and can get rid of him without feeling the slightest bit guilty."
