First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space

Why not kill him

Inside the east bedroom, the father and sons ate lunch while Lu Jiao had her meal inside the kitchen. The chicken soup was a little oily so she spooned out the oil and drank the clear soup.

Scared that those four little beans would break another bowl while they cleaned up, Lu Jiao carefully listened to any noises from inside the east bedroom. The moment it sounded like they were done, she went into the room to clean up the dishes.

This time, the four little ones stood as far away from her as possible. However, they didn’t react as scared as they were when she woke up this morning.

Lu Jiao ignored them. She didn’t glance at Xie Yunjin either and simply picked up the dirty dishes.

Behind her, Xie Erzhu mumbled in confusion, “Third brother, your wife seems to be different now. She hasn’t bothered you all day. Normally, she would be all over you asking for praises and compliments.”

Xie Yunjin thought her behavior made sense. As he had previously stated, she was plotting something.

Xie Erzhu didn’t stay long in the afternoon. After he fed Xie Yunjin and helped him to pee, he went home.

In the afternoon, Lu Jiao napped in the west bedroom. She had been busy all morning and was exhausted.

Though she wanted to lose weight, she couldn’t be impatient and had to do it slowly.

After her nap, she did a yoga routine designed to lose weight. After she was drenched in sweat, she went to the kitchen to boil some water for a bath.

At night, she boiled some chicken porridge with vegetables. She shredded the leftover chicken from lunch and added some vegetables. It tasted great.

However, Lu Jiao secretly added some water from the stream from her space. This water helped condition the body. She didn’t dare to add too much of it as too much of the stream water would cause the porridge to taste sweet and she didn’t want to get caught.

Xie Yunjin carefully checked the food for poison. After he made sure it was clean, he allowed the kids to eat.

The meals today made the four little ones feel like they were in a dream. They even suspected that Lu Jiao had gone dumb.

The four of them murmured to each other and hoped that she would stay stupid. That way, they would continue to get yummy food.

Lu Jiao heard their conversation and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Just what went on inside their heads?

After dinner, she went to clean up the dishes. There, Xie Yunjin suddenly spoke up, “Lu Jiao, stay in the east bedroom tonight and help take care of us.”

Inside the room, Lu Jiao and Xie Erzhu both raised their heads.

For the past three days, it was Xie Erzhu who slept in the east bedroom and helped out throughout the night.

Who knew that today, Xie Yunjin would ask Lu Jiao to stay and take care of him.

Xie Erzhu was shocked and said, “Third brother, just let me do it.”

Xie Yunjin said to Xie Erzhu, “Brother, you’ve been here for days now. It’s better for you to go home and spend some time with my sister-in-law. Tomorrow, you can come back.”

Xie Erzhu was still worried and carefully shot Lu Jiao a look.

Lu Jiao’s face was a little heavy as she narrowed her eyes at Xie Yunjin. Why did this guy ask her to spend the night? There was no way she would agree to sleep in the same room as him.

Could it be that he wanted to kill her? But he couldn’t even move.

Or maybe he simply wanted Xie Erzhu to go home and spend time with his wife. After all, Xie Erzhu did stay here for three nights by now.

That was a reasonable explanation.

Despite her thoughts, she remained cautious. However, she didn’t decline out loud.

After all, this guy will become the final boss. She had to make sure their relationship wasn’t too tense.

“Alright.”

Lu Jiao agreed and Xie Erzhu couldn’t say much else. After he helped Xie Yunjin clean up, he left.

When Lu Jiao went to wash the dishes, the four little boys crowded Xie Yunjin and mumbled unhappily inside the bedroom.

“Daddy, why would you let her sleep in our room?”

“I don’t want her in our room.”

“Tell her to get out.”

Xie Yunjin’s eyes were as dark as the night sky and his gaze could suffocate anyone.

“Enough. We need your uncle to rest well tonight. Tomorrow, I will tell her to get out.”

The four little ones finally stopped and quietly crawled into bed to sleep beside Xie Yunjin. For the past few days, they’ve slept like this. Only when they were beside Xie Yunjin, did they feel safe.

Inside the kitchen, Lu Jiao washed all the dishes and went to retrieve bedding from the west bedroom. As she headed to the east bedroom, she cautioned herself to be careful tonight and not get harmed by Xie Yunjin. She didn’t want to become the wife who died young.

Despite her plans, the moment she laid down, she realized just how tired she was. Plus, it was easy for her giant body to fall asleep. As she laid down, her eyelids dropped.

Despite this, Lu Jiao pretended to be asleep and waited quietly for Xie Yunjin’s movement. She wanted to see what he would pull off.

Given Xie Yunjin’s intelligence, he must know that murder came with consequences. If he killed his wife, it would tarnish his reputation and he would be incriminated. Once she was dead, he would be executed. Where would that leave those four little beans?

So, the most likely scenario was that he would kill her and make it look like she had killed herself.

The more Lu Jiao about it, the colder her heart grew. She did everything she could to stay awake but the man in the bed didn’t move an inch.

Lu Jiao carefully listened to his breathing and discovered that he wasn’t faking it – he had truly fallen asleep.

So was all of this her imagination?

Although Lu Jiao endured until late into the night, in the end, she really couldn’t stay awake anymore and fell deep asleep.

The moment she fell asleep, the man on the bed opened his eyes. His gaze was sharp like daggers that could slash all in sight.

Lu Jiao was soundly asleep and didn’t notice the noise. She even dreamt of her other life. After her death, her comrades mourned her in pain, and her parents, who each found their own true love, attended her funeral.

Lu Jiao was engrossed in her dreams when she felt someone strangling her neck, hard. It suddenly became hard to breathe.

She jolted awake and lifted her arm to hit the person guilty of choking her.

With a loud bang, the person slammed into the wall. Lu Jiao was now fully awake as she stared at the person.

It was late into the night and the moonlight shone through the window and reflected directly onto the man.

The man’s handsome visage appeared unspeakably troubled. His eyes were somewhat red as he stared at her with absolute disgust.

Right now, he acted like a demon who had just crawled into this world from hell. All he wanted was to eat Lu Jiao’s flesh and drink Lu Jiao’s blood.

Lu Jiao finally caught sight of the person who choked her. It was the heavily wounded and paralyzed Xie Yunjin.

“Are you crazy? Why aren’t you sleeping and why are you strangling me?”

Xie Yunjin’s eyes turned redder at Lu Jiao’s words. His gaze was ridden with killer’s intent.

“Yes, I am crazy. I am crazy because of you. You have ruined my supposedly great life. So, I am going to kill you.”

He felt dizzy and he wanted to vomit, but he gritted his teeth and endured as he crawled toward Lu Jiao. It appeared that unless he achieved what he came here for, he would not give up.

Lu Jiao got up and slapped him unconscious.

Xie Yunjin finally silenced as he fell onto the ground quietly and unmoving.

Lu Jiao stared at him. A dark thought sprouted inside her heart. Why not kill him? If he was dead, then she wouldn’t need to worry he’d seek revenge in the future.
