“I want to see what’s in this box.”

Chu Wanwan snorted coldly and immediately went forward to snatch the box.

Xu Chuchu did not expect Chu Wanwan to be so tyrannical. She could not help but feel a little unhappy and immediately started to argue with Chu Wanwan.

“Why are you like this? This box is mine. I can give it to whoever I want and show it to whoever I want. How are you any different from a bully?”

Hearing this, Chu Wanwan could not help but get angry.

“Then why are you arguing with me like this? You’re such a shrew. If it weren’t for Jiu Zhu presence, would you have competed with me?”

She was about to open the box.

In a moment of desperation, Xu Chuchu used a spell to make the box disappear.

“What are you doing?” Chu Wanwan was dumbfounded when she saw the box disappear without a trace.

Then, she said in exasperation, “Lady Boss, what do you mean? Could it be that this is a love letter for Jiu Zhu, or is it a token that the two of you want to have an affair?”

At the end of her sentence, she had already expressed her inner thoughts.

“What?!” Xu Chuchu felt incredulous.

“Do you think everyone likes Jiu Zhu?” she asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

When she said this, she felt a little guilty. She did have some thoughts about Jiang Ming, but because of Chu Wanwan, she did not show too much affection to him.

In the end, she did not expect Chu Wanwan to see through her. This woman’s sixth sense was really strong.

Jiang Ming was a little unhappy when he heard that.

Wasn’t this accusing him of having an ambiguous relationship with Xu Chuchu?

He had not even had physical contact with Xu Chuchu. What right did Chu Wanwan have to say such a thing?

Thinking of this, he could not help but get angry. He looked at Chu Wanwan and said, “Chu Wanwan, do you really not believe me? We are already married, yet you still want to say such things. If that’s the case, why don’t we cancel the marriage ceremony? I can’t stand being distrusted like this.”

Chu Wanwan realized that she had said something wrong. She quickly said, “Jiu Zhu, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have said that. I spoke without thinking. I’ll stop now. But I really find it strange. I just want to see what the lady boss gave you. Why is she so afraid of me seeing it? Is it something that can make me angry? I don’t understand. Other than love letters, what else can make me angry?”

Xu Chuchu muttered to herself, “What else could it be? It must be Yellow Gall Grass.”

She had stolen the yellow gall grass from the village, but she had stolen it a long time ago. The people in the village did not know about it.

If Chu Wanwan saw it, wouldn’t the village chief hear about it?

She did not want her cafe to be in trouble.

Jiang Ming knew what was inside. He quickly helped Xu Chuchu. “This should be some kind of rare treasure. Didn’t the lady boss say so? If this thing is opened by someone else, it will disappear. This should be something that can only be safe if I open it. That’s why she’s so vigilant. You’re not listening to the lady boss at all.”

“That’s right,” Sikong Wuyuan said. “Chu Wanwan, since you trusted Jiu Zhu, you shouldn’t have snatched the box. But now that the box is gone, everything is in the past. Let’s pretend that there was no box just now and continue drinking tea.”

Yuan Hehe added, “Yes, the tea here is really good. Come and have a taste. The fragrance and charm inside are very special. I recall that Jiu Zhu likes tea very much. Come and have a sip too.”

Seeing that the topic had changed to tea, Xu Chuchu immediately put on a pleasant expression. “Yes, this is my exclusive tea. Chu Wanwan, you should drink more. I didn’t make myself clear just now. It has nothing to do with you. Now that we’ve reconciled, I’ll tell you that I don’t have any improper relationship with Jiu Zhu. You don’t have to worry.”

Although they had already said so, Chu Wanwan’s face was still dark. She did not care about what the others said. Instead, she stood up and ordered Xu Chuchu, “Lady Boss, you must take out this box today. I don’t care if you’ve apologized or not. I have to see this box. Otherwise, you can forget about seeing Jiu Zhu.”

As she spoke, she wanted to drag Jiang Ming away.

Jiang Ming suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Why did not he sense that Chu Wanwan was this unreasonable? She did not even care about the thoughts of everyone present.

“What’s wrong with Chu Wanwan?” Yuan Hehe raised his eyebrows. “We’ve already explained. Why do you still want to make the atmosphere so awkward? Have you not thought about how to handle this?”

“Aren’t you still suspecting Jiu Zhu by doing this?” Sikong Wuyuan asked unhappily. “Jiu Zhu is an open and frank person. How could he do such a thing?”

He reprimanded Chu Wanwan with every word, trying to convince her to stop.

Unexpectedly, Chu Wanwan was unwilling to let them off.

“I have no intention of suspecting Jiu Zhu. I just want to see what’s in the box. I suspect that there’s something in the box that will harm Jiu Zhu. I just want to save him. Who knows when the lady boss will take out this box to harm Jiu Zhu?”

These words seemed to be for his sake, but Jiang Ming felt a chill run down his spine.

It was obvious that she wanted to see what was in the box and was not worried about his safety.

Why did Chu Wanwan insist on looking at this box? Could it be that she knew that there was yellow gall grass inside?

“How could the lady boss have the intention to harm me?” he asked. “The young ladies of your village are all here. They can flatten this cafe. If she really has bad intentions toward me, why would she attack me here?”

As he spoke, he secretly signaled Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe with his eyes.

The two of them immediately understood. They said, “That’s right. Besides, we’re still here. If anything happens to Jiu Zhu, we won’t let this lady boss off either.”

Xu Chuchu wiped her forehead and sighed. “Miss, why are you so suspicious of me? Do you think I can kill your husband? Don’t overestimate me. The matter of this box is over. Hurry up and sit down. I’ll give you a free cup of tea. Is that okay?”

Xu Chuchu had already lowered her head, but Chu Wanwan was still unwilling to let things go.

“I don’t care what you say. I don’t need your apology or tea. I just need to see the box.”
