7 Chapter 7: Yu Minglang, The Meeting Gift
Translator: 549690339
Xiao Qian only saw the young man who looked very much like her daughter come running back, and she froze again.
Yu Minglang took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into her hand without waiting for her to react, and then quickly ran away again.
When Xiao Qian came to her senses, she looked down and realized that she was holding a Muscle and Bone Injury Patch.
Did he… see her get hit in the foot?
Xiao Qian felt her heart warm, and the urge to wash her hands vanished. Some little bubbles that she shouldn’t have had stirred in her heart, and her face grew even warmer.
“This young man is not bad, he’s very righteous, and he looks good too. He seems like the kind of person who would be caring towards his daughter-in-law, much better than that Ni Jianren who just ran off! What a joke!”
Jia Xiufang’s voice pierced Xiao Qian’s bubbles, and her slightly rippling face instantly turned cold again.
Tsk! He’s so eager to warm up to every girl he sees. I never thought that Yu Minglang would be such a flirt, with no morals or principles. Tsk, tsk, tsk!
Yu Minglang had already run far away, and didn’t bother to explain when the old man scolded him through the walkie-talkie on his ear.
Qiao Zhen watched Xiao Qian and her mother enter the dry cleaning shop through his telescope.
“Little boss, the targets entered the 2-story building. They run a business on the first floor and live on the second floor. The name of the shop is Baitaling Dry Cleaning Shop!”
“What are you looking at?” Yu Minglang glared at Qiao Zhen.
Qiao Zhen chuckled, “Little boss, have you taken a liking to that girl?”
“Do you want me to send you to the Arctic Branch so that the polar bears can beat you up?” Yu Minglang glared at him coldly.
Qiao Zhen stopped joking and picked up the telescope to continue observing while muttering to himself.
“You just find her pleasing to the eye. Don’t think I didn’t notice that you gave her the herbal plaster that your family makes. Whenever I ask for it, you never give it to me.”
The little boss’s mother is a famous orthopedic expert, and her herbal plasters are extremely effective. But the little boss never gives them to anyone else.
“You’re as sturdy as a cockroach and don’t need it to heal. The people wouldn’t waste something so precious on you!”
“I’m one of the people too. Why don’t you give it to me?”
Why hadn’t he seen the cold-hearted devil be so kind-hearted before? He had just clearly seen that Yu Minglang had deliberately run back to give it to her!
“I’ll let you go on that overseas investigation mission.”
“No! Little boss, I was wrong!” Qiao Zhen thought to himself, could this be the legendary… Cold-faced Captain’s embarrassment turning into anger and resorting to petty revenge?
Well, he’s not far from the truth.
When they returned home, Jia Xiufang grumbled angrily.
“What’s with that Ni Jianren!”
Xiao Qian followed behind Jia Xiufang, carrying the fruits Ni Jianren had left behind and the herbal plaster that the dazed Yu Minglang had given her.
“Oh, big sister, you’re back! Why did you buy so many fruits?”The woman tending the shop was about thirty years old and was wearing clothes that looked a size too small, tightly wrapped around her average-looking body with a good figure.
When she saw Xiao Qian and Jia Xiufang come back, she put down the iron in her hand and greeted them warmly, wanting to help carry the fruits. Xiao Qian glanced at her with a cold expression.
“The bitch bought the fruits.”
She bypassed Chu Xue, holding the fruits and headed straight upstairs.
“Sister, what’s wrong with this child?” Chu Xue’s hand awkwardly stopped in midair. She didn’t understand why Xiao Qian, who had always been on good terms with her, suddenly turned so cold.
“Don’t mention it. On our way home, the madman from Aunt Qi’s house came out and chased us, and then…” Jia Xiufang’s words gushed out non-stop.
Xiao Qian had already climbed the stairs and, seeing her mother, who appeared fierce but only knew how to nag, chatting so happily with Chu Xue, who would take away her father in the future as the second wife, she stopped and shouted angrily at Jia Xiufang.
“Mom, come to my room! Don’t delay Chu Xue’s work!”
Why was the kid calling her by her name today when she usually addressed her as Auntie Xue? Chu Xue realized that Xiao Qian’s attitude towards her was not right and quickly changed to a pleasing face, trying to flatter Xiao Qian.
“Qian’er, Jianren treats you so well! Look, he knows to buy you fruit before even marrying you. It’s clear he’ll spoil his wife.”
Normally, as long as Ni Jianren received praise, both Jia Xiufang and Chen Lin would be very happy, since their future son-in-law had a respectable job and good reputation. However, today, Chu Xue’s failed flattery had the opposite effect.
“Stop chatting and get back to work!” Jia Xiufang vented her anger at her son-in-law’s unfaithfulness on Chu Xue.
Entering her room, Jia Xiufang sat on Xiao Qian’s bed, which was in the attic.
The first floor was for business, the second floor was for living, and there were two bedrooms. The sun-facing room was given to her younger brother, while her parents lived in the smaller one. Xiao Qian could only stay in the attic and had to bend down if she was tall, so as not to bump her head.
She suspected that her height of only 160cm was related to the long-term residence in such a cramped space. Her parents were too partial to her brother, giving him all the best and leaving her with the leftovers.
“Why are you so angry at Aunt Xue today? She might be blunt, but she has no ill intentions. She’s been good to you usually. I’ve told you so many times, although she works for our family, after all, she is my distant relative. You can’t act like a spoiled princess toward her. You…”
balabala, the nagging began again.
Xiao Qian looked at her mother coldly. She was certainly an able and tough woman, but all her qualities were ruined by her nagging mouth.
Her mother had endured and worked hard for her father, but her endless complaints had irritated her father, Chen Lin, who started having an affair with Chu Xue, a distant relative who lived and worked with them.
By this time, her father had been involved with the seemingly gentle woman downstairs for more than a year. Her seemingly shrewd and fierce mother was like a fool, completely deceived.
In another half a year, her mother would catch them in bed together, cry and make a scene, embodying the spirit of a menopausal woman’s cry, nagging, and threatening to take her own life. She would lead her brothers to their grandmother’s house with weapons, demanding an explanation from her grandmother. freewebnov(e)l.com
Doing so was extremely foolish for a woman whose husband had erred, seeking redress from her in-laws rather than winning back her husband’s heart. Instead, it angered the grandmother so much that the initially undecided father firmly chose to divorce Jia Xiufang and marry Chu Xue right away.
In TV dramas, wicked women who break up families would face a bad ending eventually. However, in reality, after her father remarried, their property was finally demolished, and they used the compensation to start a business that grew bigger and bigger.
Xiao Qian would never forget Chu Xue’s face after becoming the official wife, driving her million-dollar luxury car and creating trouble at Jia Xiufang’s impoverished home. The saying that good people live a peaceful life was just a way to deceive and numb a person’s nerves.
Foolish good people would seldom receive good rewards, while evil women were often much smarter, and Chu Xue was a prime example.
Unfortunately, in this lifetime, Xiao Qian had come back to life as a woman even more ruthless than Chu Xue.
