My New Bride Plays Dumb and Bullies People Again

When Xia Ke was born, she was labeled a fool and abandoned in the countryside to fend for herself. After she grew up, her family unexpectedly brought her back, only to quickly marry her off to the supposedly mentally unstable Jiang Chuanyao, the young master of the Jiang family! After marriage, Xia Ke rolled up her sleeves, planning to establish dominance over her newlywed crazy husband so he'd fear her. Jiang Chuanyao, on the other hand, wore a cold expression, intending to set rules for his silly bride to keep her away from him. But then... Xia Ke:"You're not crazy?!" Jiang Chuanyao: "You're not foolish?!" Both exclaimed simultaneously. In the next moment, Xia Ke and Jiang Chuanyao reached an unspoken understanding: one pretended to be a fool to tease the other while the other fiercely protected her. Someone came to Jiang Chuanyao to complain, saying that Xia Ke was pretending to be foolish, while in reality, she was very capable and might have some schemes after marrying into the Jiang family. Jiang Chuanyao retorted, ""Don't talk nonsense. My wife is both foolish and innocent. If you slander her again, I'll get angry."" Xia Ke secretly gave Jiang Chuanyao a thumbs up. Later, when Xia Ke became pregnant, she touched her growing belly and discussed with Jiang Chuanyao, "What should we name a child born to a fool and a lunatic? Foolish Lunatic?"

Finding a Better Man Than Jiang Chuanyao

Sun Fanghua was exasperated. "Even if we don't know who it is, can't you find one for her? Anyway, Xia Ke is no longer clean. She won't be able to clear her name even if she jumps into the river!"

Xia Qing reacted and was instantly excited. "Yes, yes, yes. Let's use the method you used to chase Xia Ke's mother away back then…"

"That's enough." Sun Fanghua interrupted. "Don't let your father hear you, in case he still thinks about that b*tch. I've already told your father to get Xia Ke to come back." This time, Sun Fanghua wanted to kill Xia Ke!

While Sun Fanghua and Xia Qing were plotting, Xia Ke was also in the hotel discussing countermeasures with Su Bing.

"Look." Xia Ke held back her laughter and opened her WeChat Moments to show Su Bing. Xia Qing had posted several photos in one go. She was wearing all kinds of clothes and posing flirtatiously in the pink cloakroom. The clothes she was wearing were obviously smaller. She had forcefully put them on. She even added a line of words. [Young Master Jiang, don't buy me such expensive clothes. There are too many for me to wear. What should I do?] Her words were filled with a sense of superiority. There were many people who liked this post.

Su Bing could tell at a glance that these clothes were Xia Ke's. Her cold face was expressionless. "Jiang Chuanyao bought these clothes for you, right? The quality is not bad. They didn't tear even after Xia Qing wore them."

Xia Ke said, "Xia Boyu just texted me, asking me to go home tomorrow to attend his birthday party."

"He wants you to attend his birthday party at this time? I'm afraid it's your stepmother's idea. She has ulterior motives."

Xia Ke shrugged and stood up. "Let's go."

"Where are we going?"

"To the bar." Xia Ke smiled evilly. "I've already been labeled as a mistress, so I naturally have to find another man. It would be best if he's more handsome and has a better figure than Jiang Chuanyao!"

Su Bing was speechless. "How can there be such a man in Lin City?"

"It's not impossible! Just come with me!"

At night, Xia Ke pushed open the door of the Xia family's house. She had previously sneaked out of the Xia family's house without bringing anything.

Everyone from the Xia family was in the living room. Xia Qing was wheedling with Xia Boyu, who was looking at her kindly.

Hearing the commotion at the door, Xia Boyu turned around and was stunned for a moment. When he saw that it was Xia Ke, his smile instantly disappeared. He stood up and shouted, "So, you finally know how to come home, huh? Look at the way you're dressed! Who taught you this?"

Xia Ke was wearing a black low-cut dress with a suit jacket over it. Her long straight hair had been curled into waves. She had heavy makeup on, and her red lips were fiery. She even held a cigarette in her hand, looking very much like a disgraced woman from a nightclub.

A hint of mockery flashed past Sun Fanghua's eyes. She even pretended to stand up and stop Xia Boyu. "Xia Ke is just insensible. No one expected her to ruin your contract. She's still young, so it's normal for her to like to play. It's good that she's back now."

When Xia Boyu heard this, he became even angrier. "She's young? When Xia Qing was this age, she was already a socialite in Lin City! She helped boost the Xia family's reputation!" After saying that, he glared at Xia Ke. "Look at her! She's just like her mother! Both of them are useless!"

A cold glint flashed across Xia Ke's eyes as he lazily reminded him, "Dad, my mother sold jewelry to raise the funds for you to start the company. All the connections belonged to my mother. Even this villa was bought by my mother."

Xia Boyu's expression stiffened. "Your mother gave all of these to me willingly. If it weren't for me, would the Xia family be where they are today? I was also the one who gave you and your mother 500 yuan monthly living expenses in the countryside!"

The corners of Xia Ke's mouth twitched. Putting aside the small sum of 500 yuan for living expenses, she and her mother had never gotten a single cent of this 500 yuan. It had all been withheld by Sun Fanghua.

Xia Ke didn't want to argue with them, so she went straight to the storeroom and packed her things. Then, she waved her hand. "I'm leaving. I'll attend tomorrow's birthday banquet on time."

Xia Boyu shouted angrily, "Where are you going?!"

Xia Ke grinned foolishly at him. "It's none of your business."

Xia Boyu's chest heaved up and down in anger. Sun Fanghua hurriedly went forward to comfort him. "Forget it, forget it. The child has grown up and is rebellious. Just let her be. It's fine as long as she comes to your birthday party tomorrow."

Xia Boyu had a look of disappointment on his face. He had originally hoped that Xia Ke would bring him benefits, but it was a pity that this daughter was useless! Now, she was even fooling around in a nightclub! He couldn't wait to get rid of this daughter! Fortunately, Jiang Chuanyao had taken a fancy to Xia Qing now. He was just waiting for Jiang Chuanyao to come to his birthday party tomorrow and get back the contract. After tomorrow, he would throw Xia Ke back to the countryside!
