MGASC -Chapter 78 Hold Her Tight! Whatever His Wife Says, He Believes It

“Whoever makes a sound is a fucking idiot!”

“Holy shit!”

Wang Zhi clenched his fists and was about to charge forward.

But he was only a bit over 1.7 meters tall and fairly thin. Standing in front of Lin Tianyue—who was 1.85 meters tall with a broad, solid build, big enough to fit two of him—he suddenly lost his nerve.

He didn’t even need Lin Tianyue to make a move. Wang Zhi’s courage vanished on the spot.

He even hoped his mom would hurry up and pull him back, at least help him save a little face.

But his mom seemed to be scared too. She just stood there, frozen, not moving at all.

The situation got awkward…

Wang Zhi loosened his clenched fist. His hand turned into a pointing finger as he jabbed it at Lin Tianyue. “You… you…”

Lin Tianyue snorted coldly and stepped forward. “You wanna fight?”

His aura was icy. He was clearly smiling, yet he looked like some grim reaper coming to collect a life. Wang Zhi was so scared he took two steps back. “Who’s like you, always itching for a fight? In and out of the police station three times already. I don’t know what my sister ever saw in you!”

“If you’re not gonna fight, then get the hell out of here. Don’t fucking pollute the air!”

Lin Tianyue grabbed him by the collar, flicked his wrist, and flung Wang Zhi several meters away.

Wang Zhi hit the ground hard, his ass feeling like it had split into pieces. He clutched his waist and couldn’t get up for a long while.

Just then, the bus arrived. Lin Tianyue didn’t say another word. He grabbed Zhang Qiao’s hand and got on the bus with her.

Outside the bus window, once Wang Zhi saw them leave, he started cursing again, trying to act tough like a clown. His mom cursed along with him.

“That man is a damn bandit! Thank goodness our Yan’er didn’t marry him. Otherwise, she’d be scared to death every single day! And you too—couldn’t you keep your voice down? Why provoke that kind of little hoodlum?”

Wang Zhi looked aggrieved. Wasn’t it his mom who provoked them first?

Still… thankfully they didn’t end up with a brother-in-law like that. Otherwise, he’d be miserable for life.

Only then did Wang Yan’s mom finally help her son up, brushing the dust off his backside. “When you went to deliver the gifts yesterday, did that person say anything? When exactly will Yan’er be released?”

“He said it’d be in the next few days. Told us to wait for good news. He also said Wang Mingqing is definitely getting sentenced—today or tomorrow there’ll be results. It’s a hard crackdown right now, and there’ll even be a public parade.”

“Serves him right! That bastard deserves it! He ruined our Yan’er! A parade is good—let everyone drown him in their spit!”

The two of them were still venting when they saw several officials approaching from across the street, holding a notice and pasting it onto the bulletin board opposite the bus stop.

As soon as it went up, a crowd gathered around.

Wang Yan’s mom vaguely heard people saying that the list for the public parade had been announced.

She exchanged a glance with her son and hurried across the road to take a look.

She didn’t bother checking other names, only searched for Wang Mingqing’s.

There it was.

Hooliganism. Premeditated murder. Combined punishment for multiple crimes: Death sentence.

Tears streamed down Wang Yan’s mom’s face. Wonderful. Heaven truly had eyes!

But Wang Zhi stood there, stunned. “Mom… Yan’er, she…”

“What about Yan’er? Yan’er can be released now, right?”

Before Wang Yan’s mom could finish celebrating, she saw—just a few lines below—her daughter’s name.

Wang Yan: Incitement to commit a crime. Premeditated murder. Hooliganism. Death sentence.

The words death sentence were like a sharp blade stabbing straight into a mother’s heart.

By the time Wang Zhi reacted, Wang Yan’s mom’s vision had gone black and she collapsed to the ground.

“Mom! Mom! Wake up!”

……

There weren’t many people on the bus. Because Zhang Qiao was pregnant, someone gave up their seat for her.

Lin Tianyue stood beside her like a door god.

Zhang Qiao tilted her head up to look at him. “Didn’t you say the factory was busy? Why did you follow me onto the bus?”

Lin Tianyue secretly hooked his finger around her hair, playing with it. “I was worried those two might follow us.”

“You were afraid they’d bully me?”

“A toad hopping onto your foot—it won’t bite, but it sure disgusts you.”

Bottom line: he didn’t want that whole family having any contact with his wife.

The farther away, the better.

Lin Tianyue suddenly thought of how he’d ridden in Zhou Junlin’s car that morning. Zhang Qiao had looked like a fairy—elegant getting in and out of the car. Anyone who didn’t know better would think she was some rich city girl.

And now, she was squeezing onto a bus with him.

It left a bitter taste in his heart.

“Xiao Qiao, once I save up some money, let’s buy a car too.”

The words slipped out while he was lost in thought.

He wanted to buy a car—a sedan like the ones people like Zhou Junlin rode in. That way, Zhang Qiao wouldn’t have to hitch rides with others anymore.

She could sit prettily in their own car, go wherever she wanted.

Zhang Qiao was a little surprised at first. She thought, What’s this big brute suddenly going crazy about?

And why was he suddenly calling her Xiao Qiao? Hadn’t she made herself clear enough yesterday?

After a brief pause, she nodded. “That’s a good plan. But cars aren’t cheap. Take it slow. Anyway, we’ll have one sooner or later.”

“You believe me?”

Only then did Lin Tianyue realize how embarrassed he should feel.

Talking about buying a car sounded like bragging. Anyone hearing it would say he was daydreaming.

A car would cost at least seventy or eighty thousand. Even a big truck would be fifty or sixty thousand. His factory had just started; yearly profits were barely ten thousand. Even if he didn’t eat or drink, it would take years to save enough.

He was afraid Zhang Qiao would laugh at him, say he was aiming too high and dreaming nonsense.

But she said: take it slow—sooner or later.

“Mm. Making money isn’t that hard. Times change. Lin Tianyue, do you believe it? In the future, you’ll definitely own many, many cars.”

Zhang Qiao thought to herself: I’ve read the novel. Lin Tianyue becomes a domineering CEO with a net worth in the hundreds of millions. He’s been on rich lists. Buying a car is nothing.

But to Lin Tianyue, her words were the hottest, most powerful affirmation.

A tidal wave surged through his heart, as if all the blood in his body had been ignited.

Unable to help himself, he reached out and pulled her small head into his chest, letting her lean against his waist. “Wife, I believe you!”

Whatever you say—I believe it all!

Zhang Qiao was suddenly hugged, and on a bus no less. Her face instantly turned red.

She hurriedly tried to break free, pushing at him with both hands.

Is he crazy?

Is it really this open now? Hugging in public? Don’t get her charged with hooliganism too!

Besides, what was he getting excited about? She’d only told the truth.

“Hey, Lin Tianyue, you’re pulling my hair!”

Lin Tianyue quickly let go and helped smooth her hair.

Her hair was so silky, so soft—so nice to touch. Unable to resist, he rubbed it a few more times.

Was he petting a cat or what?

Zhang Qiao shot him a glare that was half angry, half reproachful. Her delicate face was flushed red, clearly expressing her irritation, telling him to take his damn hand away.

But in Lin Tianyue’s eyes, it looked like she was acting cute.

Her eyes and brows were full of charm—so alluring it was deadly.

Laughter came from around them. Lin Tianyue knew people were laughing at the two of them, but he didn’t care.

What was there to be afraid of? He and Zhang Qiao were husband and wife.

The bus approached the next stop. There was a large crowd gathered on the street, staring at a newly posted notice.

The public parade needed to be widely announced to serve as a warning to the entire city.

Soon, people got on the bus, discussing the hottest topic of the day.

“They’ve all been sentenced—death penalty! Scary stuff, but they deserved it. I heard she was totally shameless. Even tried to poison people, put something in the water. That’s straight-up murder!”

“Wang Yan looked fine on the surface, but she was vicious behind the scenes. Good. This is killing one to warn a hundred—let’s see who dares act up now!”

“A scumbag man and a trash woman—death wouldn’t be enough for them. Just a pity about Doctor Wu.”

“Yeah. Doctor Wu really got screwed over by Wang Mingqing. Who knows if she’ll even be able to get married in the future…”

Almost everyone getting on the bus was talking about it. Zhang Qiao couldn’t avoid hearing it even if she tried.

Wang Yan… sentenced?

Death penalty!

Zhang Qiao knew Wang Yan wouldn’t have a good ending, but this result still shocked her.

These days… anything could happen.

Before transmigrating, she’d read a piece of news about a girl who was sentenced to death during a hard crackdown simply for maintaining ambiguous relationships with multiple men. Zhang Qiao had thought it was unbelievable back then.

She never imagined reality could be this brutal.

She hadn’t wanted to hurt anyone—it was Wang Yan who had tried to kill her.

She didn’t dare imagine: if she had fallen for the trap that day, if the inspection team had caught her in that room with no way to explain herself… would her name now be on that notice, dying an unjust death just like that?

Too fucking terrifying!!!
