" No ..No, I like it, I like it very much!" The reason Shao Hui hesitated just now was because he did not like Mo Qiang calling him little tomato just now, he never thought that his momentary hesitation will cause the woman to raise the bat again and hit Big Girl Li on the head.

He then turned to look at Big Girl Li who was cowering like a helpless woman and was slightly annoyed, this woman was so fierce with him just now but the second his wife arrived and gave a few nice hits she was cowering like she was some sort of delicate beauty who was being harassed by some hooligan. It was too embarrassing to watch, on one side he stopped Mo Qiang and on the other side, he hid the itchy powder bomb in his space kit.

As someone who was harassed by Big Girl Li and many other thugs because of his pretty face, he was used to carrying some defence tools with him that big brother Fu made for the three of them, though they could not use them on Mo Qiang, they could still use it on outsiders. Originally, Shao Hui was planning to make Big Girl Li itch to death until she scratched her skin and bled dry but now—— he looked at the many lumps on her head and arms and a small pang of sympathy rose in his heart when he thought about how Big Girl Li had a photo shoot in such a condition.

" You can leave," he told Big Girl Li since he had no intention of beating her any more and bringing trouble to their family.

Big Girl Li felt like she received amnesty from God herself which was why she turned on her heels and then rushed out of the alley, however, as soon as she reached the end of the alley with people surrounding her left and right, she was once again emboldened and shouted at Mo Qiang, " Mo Qiang! You better prepare the money for the debt because if you don't then humph… do not blame me for being harsh."

Her condition at the moment was like a shaven tiger who was still trying to roar even though it had a squeaking bath duck stuck in his mouth, it was a sorry sight. Instead of feeling threatened Mo Qiang looked at the beaten-up Big Girl Li and thought that she might have gone a bit too far while beating her just now.

That woman was screaming like a duck whose throat was caught and wrung pitifully.

Big Girl Li kept screaming and threatening but which each threat she moved away like she was scared of getting beaten until she vanished looking rather comical. Once she was gone, Shao Hui who was holding on to his breath sunk down to his knees and buried his face causing Mo Qiang to receive a fright.

She stared at the redhead before she hesitated a little and then she too crouched down and called Shao Hui out softly, " Umm, little tomato… no, Hui Hui… " She changed her wording when she noticed the glare that the mer shot her with his dual-coloured eyes. " Are you okay?"

" I am not little tomato, my hair is cherry blossom shade, you get that?" The man was very obsessed with his looks, he was once a mer who almost became an idol what kind of idol will he be if he was nicknamed little tomato? He would be laughed at by his fans!

And what will his fans be called? Little cherry tomatoes?

He could almost imagine a sea of red while he was performing. It will look more like a devilish ritual than an idol performance!

" Ah yes," Mo Qiang agreed as she looked around and then took out the warm water bottle that her mother gave her and handed it to Shao Hui who was looking at her suspiciously. " Don't look at me like that, this was prepared by Mother, I haven't touched it… no I mean I did not touch the water but I did touch the bottle."

Gosh, why was she even scared of this tiny little thing?

Shao Hui stared at her without saying anything just as she was thinking that he was going to reject her, he took the water bottle from her hand and then as if realising something he added, " I am only taking this on account of mother-in-law."

"Sure," Mo Qiang did not even know what to say at his sudden change of attitude, she watched the man gulp a few sips of water and waited until he looked in a good mood before asking, " Why did you not call for help? If you did someone would have definitely come to help you right?"

Mo Qiang could not help but ask these husbands of hers especially the third one was so fierce in front of her why was it that he did not do anything to that Big Girl Li right now. What happened to those growls and scissors that he was showing her when she saw him for the first time?

Shao Hui did not answer her right away instead he swallowed a few more gulps of hot water treasuring each sip, the bottles that were sold in the imperial star were more than a thousand golden star coins, and they did not even hold half litres of water just a few gulps, so much hot water was hard to come by and he, of course, was going to treasure it, what was more unlike the processed and heavily mineralised water sold in the imperial main star, this water that was purified by his wife was much more clean and sweet.

It was nice to drink.

However, Shao Hui knew that there was a limit to such a sweet thing which was why he only took a few more sips and then closed the water bottle. He took a sideway glance at Mo Qiang and then said, " I never needed anyone's help, I had an itchy bomb... if I had used that then the woman would have died while scratching her skin."

Mo Qiang: "….." Oh, this was why she was scared of this little thing.
