Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

"No, Lei, this is the new era, where does the mistress come from?" Shan Lai pretended to be surprised and even faced Lei, their noses touching, almost hugging each other.

"Who knows? After all, so many people like you." Lei said more aggrievedly, with red eyes. "If you have a mistress, I wouldn't dare to have any objection. How could I dare to have any objection? After all, kittens are so lovable. It's not difficult to raise ten or eight of them outside. Will you abandon me then?" The way she said this made her sound like a little resentful woman who was about to be abandoned.

Shanlai wanted to laugh when she heard this, but she didn't dare to, so she just looked at Lei with a serious face.

"Raising a third child is against the law. Besides, I don't have such unrealistic thoughts. Having you is enough for me." Shan Lai smiled and reached out to touch Lei's face. It was still the handsome face that fascinated and made her indulge. "You are so handsome, how can I bear to leave you at home, huh?" She said deliberately, and even teased him a little, reaching out to lift his chin, as if forcing him to look up at her.

The two looked at each other, and Lei moved closer to her lips. Shanlai extended her index finger and touched his lips. "Let's eat first, or the food will get cold, be good." Her voice was low, with a little bit of desire.

Lei stood up, gave her a meaningful look, then put his lips close to her ear, "Deng Heshanlai, how can you be so good? Hmm?" He opened his mouth and gently bit her earlobe. A tingling feeling came from her ear, and she shrank her shoulders slightly.

She reached out to push him and said, "I learned it from you." She blinked her eyes. She was telling the truth. She did learn the skill of telling lies from someone, and she was even better than him.

The class chuckled. What if the lady imitates you to talk? What else can I do? I will spoil her.

"Okay, let's eat first." Lei sat next to her and started putting food into her bowl.

Just like usual, after dinner and cleaning up the dishes, Shanlai curled up on the sofa playing games. After playing for a while, she glanced in the direction of the kitchen, it seemed that she had not finished yet.

He picked up the iPad next to him and started to check today's entertainment headlines. It seemed that the headlines were about Huo Ting again.

The picture released showed two lighters thrown on the coffee table, and two bags of white powdery substance next to them. Huo Ting was sleeping in the middle of the bed, and two female models were nestled in his arms. From this camera angle, Huo Ting seemed to still have his eyes closed, looking very enjoyable.

Shan Lai was silent for a moment, and a hand reached out from behind her and took the iPad away, "You should watch less of this kind of stuff, it's bad for your eyes."

Lei said lightly, put the iPad aside, and then moved to Shan Lai's side and sat next to her, "Why are you reading those boring entertainment headlines?"

She rubbed her shoulder and said, "No, I just check it out when I'm bored." Then she reached out her hand to take the iPad in a sly way, but Lei slapped her hand lightly on the back of her hand.

"Still not listening?"

Shan Lai pursed her lips, then withdrew her hand in despair, "You act like you're so arrogant. You told me not to touch you, but I can't? What kind of bandit logic is this?" She was very dissatisfied with this. Why?

Lei looked at her and said calmly: "Really? Then why don't you try touching it?"

Seeing Lei's unfriendly eyes, Shan Lai backed down and didn't dare to argue with him anymore. She suddenly realized that no matter how arrogant or rude she was outside, she was still suppressed by Lei in front of him. What's the reason?

"Just give it a try." He then extended his hand.

The way he looked at her gradually became hot.

After taking the iPad, Shan Lai hooked his neck and kissed him without hesitation. It was really just a light kiss.

I was stunned. What was she doing? Was it a bribe?

"Is it okay?" Shan Lai asked him.

Lei didn't answer. She kissed the corner of his lips gently again and said, "I think this is very good. Don't push your luck." She raised her eyebrows and shook the iPad in her hand at Lei to show off.

"Little cat, you seem to be really good at it." Lei chuckled. He really felt that Shanlai's behavior today was as if he had learned skills from someone. Not only was he good at it, but he was also very seductive.

"Thank you for the compliment." Shan Lai said while shaking his head, with a professional fake smile still on his face.

The two of them teased for a while, and in the end they just sat on the sofa facing each other, you looking at me and I looking at you.

Shan Lai's face suddenly became serious, "Lei, tell me the truth, were you involved in Huo Ting's affairs?" She would never believe that Lei had nothing to do with this matter.

"No." Lei answered straightforwardly, "I just paid a little exposure fee." As he said this, he laughed.

Shan Lai had a stern face, but suddenly he started laughing again and said in a low voice, "Little Green Tea."

"What did you say?" Lei just heard a little bit of what Shanlai said, but it seemed that he didn't hear it completely, so he asked this question.

"No, I said you are handsome." Shan Lai smiled to hide her embarrassment, "So, Senior Lei, when are you going to buy me a ring?" She looked at Lei with an innocent face and even stretched out her right hand to him. There was nothing on her white, slender and long fingers, only a simple bracelet on her wrist.

This was when Lei and she went to the amusement park together and they met an old lady weaving bracelets with red rope at a small stall. She thought it was fun and wanted to buy one, and she did buy one. However, Lei sent her another one the next day, which he had learned to weave himself after staying up all night.

She had never taken it off since he put it on her.

In fact, Lei had bought a ring for her before, but she thought it was too troublesome and didn't wear it. Besides, they weren't married yet, so it would be the same if she wore it when he proposed to her.

"Okay." Lei's Adam's apple moved, and he pulled her into his arms.

Shanlai rested her chin on Lei's shoulder. After what happened with Huo Ting, she suddenly wanted to marry Lei. She wanted to stand with him legitimately and want others to call her "Mrs. Huaze". She wanted it very much.

He hugged his girl with great satisfaction. They had already done everything that a couple should do. Except for the last thing which they had to leave until the wedding night, they seemed to have no regrets.

Okay, then he would propose to her within this month. It just so happened that the ring he learned to make from the jewelry master had just been completed, so everything seemed just right.

……

A week later.

Huo Ting sat on a bench on the defendant's side of the court. He kept looking toward the audience to see if the woman would come. He didn't hear clearly what his defense lawyer was saying, but he just felt very annoyed.

After an unknown amount of time, the judge struck the gavel and a deep voice came from the judge's direction, "The defendant Huo Ting is sentenced to five years in prison for...
