Chapter 258 - 246: Reduced to Tang
Besides, being able to make Yu Mingli take time twice in such a short period to play with the family, everyone in the Yu Family is impressed with Qian.
"Do you really want me to ask for something?"
"Anything you want, feel free to ask." Yu Mingli was in high spirits due to the happy events.
"Then play with the two little handsome guys for a week, it’s winter break, they’re definitely free now, take sister-in-law and the kids out more. Consider this week as my reward for the business you’re missing."
"Uh... you’d better just ask for a car." Big brother was in a dilemma.
Qian reached out and patted the two little handsome guys, smiling as she asked, "What are your names?"
"I’m Yu Yizhong!"
"I’m Yu Yiguan!"
Sister-in-law held Panpan in her arms and waved to Qian, "This one is Yu Yibai!"
Second brother wasn’t back yet, so Panpan was handed to Mrs. Yu. Mrs. Yu intended to come over today, but a last-minute emergency appointment came up, so she had to send the kids over to be babysat by big brother and sister-in-law.
Qian nodded, "So this generation is all ’Yi’ names, huh."
The Yu Family has a genealogy book, and everyone in Yu Minglang’s generation has ’Ming’ in their name, and the next generation is all ’Yi’.
Suddenly, Qian paused, "Sister-in-law, are their names in the order of Zhong, Guan, Bai, Ri?"
"Yes, our family patriarch set the rule. The kids all follow Zhong, Guan, Bai, Ri, meaning our Yu Family is as faithful as the brightness of the day. Why, Qian?"
Qian looked at the three handsome young guys and suddenly felt a bit sorry for the fourth Yu Family child.
Ri...
Although Yu Minglang has a twin sister, even if she gets married, her kids won’t follow the Yu Family genealogy.
Big brother’s family has a pair of twins, second brother just got divorced, so who knows where this "grand prize" will end up.
"It’s fine, pretty good... By the way, big brother, could you lend me your phone to send a text, mine’s out of battery."
After the father and daughter from the Teng Family left the store, Tang Shuixian suddenly remembered her partner in adversity.
"Ah, where did Qian go?"
Teng Daye’s phone rang; it was a text. He opened it and couldn’t help but laugh.
"This girl’s really something."
Tang Shuixian took his phone; it was from Qian sent through Yu Mingli’s phone, just six words.
Old Tang, pay up if you lose.
"Dad, how did you end up being called ’Old Tang’? And what did you bet with her? Qian is particularly good at setting traps..."
Tang Shuixian had been tricked by Qian into serving as a waitress for three days, which reshaped her worldview.
Unexpectedly, Qian not only got her but even tricked a wealthy man.
Even renamed her father to Old Tang; what a kid! Even Yu Mingli, when seeing Mr. Teng, would courteously call him Mr. Teng.
"Scroll up and you’ll see a few texts above."
Teng Daye also found himself in a difficult situation, he truly didn’t expect Qian to be this impressive.
Tang Shuixian scrolled up and discovered that three days ago, Qian had made a bet with Teng Daye.
The content was simple: if she could make Shuixian serve in the BBQ shop for 3 days and improve her relationship with her father thereafter, Teng Daye would have to meet one of her conditions.
Furthermore, Qian stated that if she failed, Tang Daye was welcome to tear down her house, dig up her ancestors’ graves, and throw her into the sea wrapped in a burlap sack.
"I’ll call her brother later and tell him to come over and sign the contract. Honestly, over the years, many people have tried to coz up to our family, but this girl’s methods are the most powerful. Oh well, a bet’s a bet."
Tang Daye thought what Qian wanted was for him to hand the contract to Yu Mingli, since the two families were currently at an impasse.
Tang Shuixian shook her head, "I have a feeling Qian isn’t after that."
"Daughter, you’re still young and not good at judging people. I admit Chen Xiaoqian is capable; you can be friends with her in the future, but don’t get too involved. There are interests at play between you, and while you may really like her, she’s just using you for her brother’s deal."
Tang Daye knew it was a little harsh, but he had to tell his daughter the truth.
"Are you sure...?" Tang Shuixian opened Qian’s latest message, laughed until tears came out.
"Daddy, take a look yourself; what is she asking you to do?"
"What the heck?!" Teng Daye was astonished to see that Chen Xiaoqian wanted him to do such a thing.
Just as Tang Shuixian expected, what Qian wanted Teng Daye, the wealthy man, to do had nothing to do with the contract.
Qian’s text read:
Old Tang, your daughter owes me 80.5 yuan. Please, within one day, take your daughter to sell leek pies, and use the money from selling them to repay me. It’s only fair that a father’s debt is paid by the daughter.
"No respect for elders, there’s a limit to jokes! I’ll tell her brother what she’s taken our family for!"
The wealthy man was displeased.
At his status, selling leek pies!
"Did you owe her money?"
"Yes... you see this coat? She bought it, the cab fare she covered, totaling 80.5 yuan."
"I’ll pay her 8,500 yuan, no, I’ll pay her 850,000! You can’t hang out with her anymore!" Teng Daye felt he had been seriously taken advantage of like a fool.
While Teng Daye was fuming, Shuixian’s phone rang.
"Hello, Qian."
"Tell that cheeky girl she’s been blacklisted from our family!" Teng Daye shouted loudly, while Tang Shuixian pressed a hand to his mouth to signal him to be quiet.
"Shuixian, a bet’s a bet, you lost." Qian’s voice came through.
"Chen Xiaoqian, stop this nonsense, put your brother on the phone!" Teng Daye attempted to use Yu Mingli to pressure Qian.
"Old Tang, my brother authorized me. He said he doesn’t need the business, but whatever I want to do, he fully supports it."
The brother driving almost crashed into a tree by the side of the road. Wait, who said that? I need the business, I really do!
"Chen Xiaoqian, what exactly are you up to? Do you want us to become enemies?" Teng Daye’s voice came from the speaker, loud enough for the sister-in-law to hear.
"Old Tang, shut up, let me talk to her."
Tang Shuixian told her father.
The rich man who was now just Old Tang, the ex-overbearing CEO, angrily kicked a stone by the roadside, wincing in pain. The guard next to him, rare to see such a once-in-a-hundred-years scene, wanted to laugh but was silenced by a glare from an enraged Old Tang.
"Qian, is this treatment you’re talking about starting with this?" Tang Shuixian asked.
"Yes, the three days you just experienced were a theatrical method for treating anorexia by rebuilding concepts. I modified it a bit; the immersion effect was quite good, wasn’t it? It’s more effective than telling you ten thousand times. Now you’re ready for my treatment. What I need to cure is your Old Tang. Go and sell your leek pies, and bring back the Old Tang from the old days."
"Alright, I accept your treatment, but... my dad seems a bit resistant."
