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.
