Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1012

Hearing her husband’s words, Lu Jueyu was stunned. She glanced at Father Li and the others and sighed in relief when she saw them already climbing the stairs.

She pulled her husband to the side and asked, "Husband, what nonsense are you saying? Who wants to get rid of you?"

"Didn’t you say it would be better to have an average-looking husband? Are you thinking of replacing me with another man?" Li Chenmo asked with a hint of grievance in his voice.

Realizing her careless words had hurt him, guilt filled Lu Jueyu’s heart. She reached out to hug him, and said, "Blame me for being careless with my words and hurting you. Husband, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean what I said just now. I shouldn’t take my frustration out on you over what others did. I’m so sorry."

Hearing her apology, Li Chenmo looked at her expression and asked, "Wife, do you mean your words now?"

"Mn," Lu Jueyu nodded.

Finally feeling reassured, Li Chenmo hugged her tightly and buried his head in her shoulder. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he said, "Wife, please don’t say those things again. Hearing it nearly drove me crazy. I would die if you ever left me." _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}

Lu Jueyu nodded and promised, "I won’t say those words ever again. I love you, Husband."

Although he wanted to hold his wife longer, Li Chenmo knew they had other important matters to attend to. After a brief conversation, they climbed the stairs together.

When they saw Pan Meijia at the door, Lu Jueyu walked over and hugged her while saying, "Sorry for being late, Meijia."

Pan Meijia hugged her briefly before letting go and said, "Jueyu, Brother-in-law, please come in."

After they both entered the house, she closed the door and took a seat beside her eldest sister-in-law. Unlike Lu Jueyu, who stayed in her bedroom during her proposal day, Pan Meijia sat with her family.

Seeing this, Father Li simply smiled without comment. Since they didn’t bring a matchmaker, Mother Pan invited Zhao Xirui to serve in that role.

The moment Mother Xiao saw Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo, she was stunned. She had previously heard from her son that her daughter had once fallen in love with another woman’s husband, causing a lot of trouble.

Although her daughter had since moved on and married her current husband, Mother Xiao was still curious about the man her daughter had been so infatuated with.

This time, it was Mother Pan who picked up the list and read it. As she opened the small book, she saw the amount of the bride price and asked with doubts, "In-laws, was there a mistake with the bride price?"

Mother Xiao glanced over and nearly lost her composure when she saw the bride price. Normally, people would give at most 188 yuan as a bride price, even in the capital. For the Li family to offer 18,888 yuan was almost four times more than what her daughter had received from Mu Zigu.

"There is no mistake, Mother. This is all of my savings, and I’m happy to give it to Jia Er," Li Lingyun said firmly.

When Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu heard his words, they exchanged glances but said nothing. While Li Chenmo privately scoffed at his brother’s bold claim, Lu Jueyu admired the Li family’s confidence.

They were still only discussing the proposal and hadn’t yet exchanged birth dates, but both her father-in-law and second brother-in-law were already calling Pan Meijia’s parents "in-laws."

Her father-in-law had shifted smoothly from "Brother" to "in-laws," and her second brother-in-law directly addressed them as "Mother and Father." They truly left no room for hesitation in claiming these connections ah!

While the Pan family was stunned by the betrothal gifts and bride price prepared by the Li family, Pan Meijia quietly ate her melon seeds on the side. Her boyfriend had already informed her of the amount he had prepared, so she was no longer as shocked as they were.
