Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 162

After Jiao Siyu finished speaking, Li Chenmo raised his eyes and looked at her coldly. When Jiao Siyu saw his gaze, she trembled all over and felt a chill running down her spine, but she refused to back down and straightened her back instead.

Li Chenmo let out a chuckle and said with a sneer, "What you said is true. My wife cannot do heavy work and is often sick. However, she has a capable husband who is able to let her eat her fill every day without putting their family in debt. She even has extra money to spend as she pleases."

"But what about you? Your husband is incompetent, weak, indecisive, and timid. Since he can’t earn enough money for you to spend, you should learn how to live a modest life. Even if your family lives in the county town, you are not a rich girl so don’t act like one. Don’t keep forcing your husband to go to your father-in-law for money. How embarrassing!" he added harshly.

"Li Chenmo! Who are you calling incompetent, weak, indecisive, and timid?!" Li Chenxuan slapped the table, stood up, and shouted.

Li Chenmo poured himself a cup of water, took a sip, and said calmly, "Jiao Siyu’s husband. Who else?"

The moment he uttered those words, Li Chenxuan was angered and felt a pain in his chest due to the frustration. Growing up, he had never defeated his third brother. Whether it’s a fight or an argument, he always gets the short end of the stick!

"Do you think I won’t dare to hit you when Father is here?!" Li Chenxuan said through gritted teeth.

"Do you think you can beat me?" Li Chenmo asked him with raised brows.

Indeed, in terms of physical strength alone, he had no chance of winning against his third brother. What’s more, Li Chenmo has been in the army for eleven years. In addition to daily training, he also experienced countless life and death battles which hone his combat skills, instincts and willpower. If there was a fight, Li Chenmo might be able to kill him with one punch.

Li Chenxuan was choked by his words and could only glare at him. Since he couldn’t win against Li Chenmo, he turned to look at Father Li and asked, "Father, my third brother already disrespects me like this, won’t you say anything?"

Father Li sighed and said, "Second son, if you want to improve yourself, you must first admit your shortcomings before you can change them and become a better person. You always know what your shortcomings are, but you are never willing to admit them, let alone change yourself for the better. If you continue down this path, there is only a bleak future waiting for you."

"You are all my children, and I always want the best for you. But your father is old, and I cannot protect you forever. You should learn how to support yourself and your family. I am tired, and it is time for you and your wife to go back." Father Li shook his head again and returned to his room, unwilling to see his disappointing second son.

Looking at his father’s tired back, Li Chenmo’s eyes darkened. He looked at Li Chenxuan and said, "Second brother, this is my last warning to you. Stop bothering our father for money. If you still insist on doing this, don’t blame me for not giving you face."
