I Woke My Vegetative Husband up After Booktransmigrating

Chapter 15

I’m In The Same Boat As You

Xiao Fan nodded. “Yes, I did. I fed him at noon.”

“Did it go well?” Ming Liuyi asked.

“I could be clumsy, so I tried for over an hour, and yet only managed to feed him half a bowl’s worth,” Xiao Fan said.

“Isn’t that equivalent to eating half a bowl of congee for the entire afternoon?” Ming Liuyi’s brows furrowed tightly.

“I really couldn’t feed him. I was worried that he would be hungry, so I fed him some milk in the afternoon.” After Xiao Fan finished speaking, she saw Ming Liuyi nod her head. Without any other instructions, she went to the kitchen to prepare Ming Liuyi’s dinner.

The master bedroom was silent once more.

Ming Liuyi sat beside Yao Zizhou and looked at his side-profile. Eventually, she could not help reaching out and poking his face. “Yao Zizhou, why are you so disobedient? I was only gone for a while, why aren’t you eating properly?”

Yao Zizhou was confused.

Ming Liuyi did not know that, because of her touch, Yao Zizhou would regain his consciousness. Ming Liuyi continued mumbling to herself, “Xiao Hong has been arrested by the police. All those with malicious intent have already been driven away.”

Yao Zizhou was even more puzzled by this.

Ming Liuyi continued, “Actually, I did not want to alert the enemy, but I was thinking what if I slip up one day? So with this, we can eat without worry. In the future, if… Never mind, we’ll deal with each move accordingly, but you have to be obedient.”

Yao Zizhou was confused again.

No one had ever spoken to him like this since he matured.

If Ming Liuyi could lean on his chest at this time, she would definitely be able to hear his heartbeat beating like a drum.

At this time, Ming Liuyi’s phone suddenly rang. She carelessly answered the phone with one hand while her other hand continued to stroke Yao Zizhou’s face.

“Sister-in-law, I am Yao Ziyang.”

“Oh, Yao Ziyang, what’s the matter?”

Yao Zizhou could only hear Ming Liuyi’s voice. He suppressed the questions in his heart and silently listened.

Yao Ziyang was tired of keeping up the farce with this stupid woman, and said in a cold voice, “Let’s get straight to the point. I know you’re not happy with a vegetable and your days are hard. I have a way for you to get rid of Yao Zizhou and live a free life, but I just need you to not get in the way, sister-in-law. What do you think?”

Ming Liuyi thought furiously, ‘Yao Ziyang! He’s your older brother! How could you!?”

Yao Ziyang gave a cold huff. “Ming Liuyi, you can stop pretending now. If I weren’t sure of your actual nature, I wouldn’t be calling you. Yao Gui does not know about your methods, but I do. For the longest time, I did not let the Yao family know the truth. If not for me covering for you, do you think you could remain in the Yao family? Right now, you’re waiting for Yao to wake up, but have you ever thought about what he’ll do to you once he wakes?”

“So, what do you want?”

“I hope you won’t meddle in other people’s business like today,” Yao Ziyang replied.

“You planted Xiao Hong?” Ming Liuyi asked. She had her suspicions, but she did not think they would be revealed straightaway.

“Don’t get in my way again, or else you and your little lover will suffer for the rest of your lives!” Yao Ziyang threatened.

Ming Liuyi pondered for a moment. “Okay, but you have tell me what you want to do. Otherwise, it’ll be like today. You poisoned the orange juice, but I got set up as well.” You’re smart, but I’m not stupid. What do you think?”

Yao Ziyang sneered, “Fine, I’ll give you one more chance. But it will depend on your performance. Tomorrow, I’ll arrange for someone to put a small dose of slow-acting poison in the milk.”

Ming Liuyi was shocked. So there was still a hidden threat in this house! But Yao Zizhou had only been discharged from the hospital for two days, so why was Yao Ziyang so arrogant? He seemed to be in a hurry to kill Yao Zizhou.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell Yao Gui about this?”

Yao Ziyang sneered, “Go ahead! I’ll be having an all-day meeting with Yao Gui tomorrow. If you do anything, I’ll tell Yao Gui that you were the one who poisoned him. Do you think Yao Gui will believe you over me? He’ll have you dealt with without even waiting for your explanation. Ming Liuyi, to actually ask such a question, do you think you’re that important? Do you think that you’re the madam of the Yao family now just because you dealt with a few housekeepers?”

Yao Ziyang’s voice was like a venomous snake, waiting for an opportunity to strike. It sent chills down one’s spine.

Ming Liuyi understood clearly that if she were to fight him head-on, she would have no chance of winning. Her eyes flickered. “Okay, I’ll believe you this time. I’ll feed him milk tomorrow. If anyone finds out, you’ll have to protect me. I’m in the same boat as you now.”
