Li Nuanchun felt an unease in her heart, greatly worried that Si Chen would come back and have a fight with his wife. Her gloom was so apparent that she didn't even manage a smile while she was cooking.
"Where have you been all morning?" Chen Yanmei entered the kitchen with a bowl of vegetables and noticed the long face Li Nuanchun was pulling, casually asking, "Did you have a fight with your man or something? You look as long-faced as a cucumber."
"I wouldn't be this worried if we really had a fight." Li Nuanchun had been feeling suffocated, eager to vent her feelings she shared the morning's events. "Dr. Si's wife may seem pretty and clever but she's a frivolous spender. Not even a bank at home could put up with that kind of spending! She goes through two to three hundred yuan in an outing, just a fan alone costs a hundred and fifty yuan. As for coal briquettes that everyone else uses, she prefers to burn whatever is more expensive."
