Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 Jealousy

Hualing returned home and sat on the stool, stifling her frustration. Why? It was all because she had visited Cheng Su’s place.

While at Qi Taiguo’s home, she took the opportunity to look around inside and out while Cheng Su was busy in the kitchen. She deeply felt that her own home was practically a pigeon coop in comparison.

Qi Taiguo, being of higher rank, was allotted a two-bedroom apartment with a living room and a bathroom. In contrast, all they had was a one-bedroom apartment without a bathroom, requiring them to use a communal one. How was that convenient?

It’s human nature to fear comparison. Without it, Hualing might have been content, but now she couldn’t keep her calm.

Her anger grew upon seeing the dishes served on the dining table.

Cheng Su was just a country girl from the sticks, yet she was fortunate enough to marry a good husband with a high rank, leading to better living conditions than theirs.

Look at their place—in this sweltering heat, the fan spun, cool and refreshing, instantly lifting spirits, and on the table, the serving of meat—was that roast pork? How expensive must that have been!

Is the bounty for a company commander that substantial?

The more Hualing thought about it, the more envious she became, and coupled with the heat, she felt increasingly irritable.

"Is Chen Shouwang that deadbeat man ever coming back?" She grabbed a book from the table and fan herself vigorously, glaring at the door.

No sooner had she said this than there was a sound at the door—sure enough, it was Platoon Leader Chen coming home.

"There you are, eating and drinking merrily, all greased up, without a care in the world for me!" Hualing grimaced and chastised him.

Platoon Leader Chen hastily closed the door and replied, "Didn’t I just get back?"

"This room is scorching hot." Hualing fanned herself fiercely, her cheeks puffing up with annoyance.
