Chapter 705 - 679: Qian Strikes Back No.1
"Are you sure that’s what it means? Dare to say what ’basket’ means if I ask again?" Qian was still digging a hole.
"Nonsense! Don’t think you’re the only one who knows things—basket, basket, they’re all baskets!!" Puffy Eyes said three times in a row, and Qian clicked her tongue a few times.
"A little girl like you, having puffy eyes is already bad enough, being ugly isn’t your fault, but why so vulgar? Hanging that stuff on your lips? Is it really appropriate to keep saying that?"
"Hahaha!" Xian’er laughed so hard she cried, her ladylike image was about to collapse.
Realizing she had been outsmarted, Puffy Eyes’ face suddenly turned red, she pointed at Qian, "You’re too wicked!"
"Exactly! You little girl, how can you be so uncivilized when you speak!" Puffy Eyes’ mom chimed in.
"Would I talk to you like this if you hadn’t started it?"
Qian turned to Mai, "Basket from the noble Carter family, oh, oops, said it wrong, Mr. Mai, are you willing to make a bet with me? Bet on whether I can understand their dialect, how about it?"
Mai had been tricked by Qian a few times and had a bit of experience now. His intuition told him not to bet.
"Anyone who doesn’t bet is a coward, no basket at all!"
"Bet!"
Xian’er felt a bit sorry for Mai. Seeing Mai’s annoyed expression, you could tell he realized he had likely been tricked by Qian’er.
"Great, then let’s bet that I can accurately translate what they’re saying. If I’m right, you must respectfully call me ’sister’ whenever you see me; if I’m wrong, I’ll call you ’boss’ whenever I see you, how about it?"
"No need to call ’boss’. In the future, whatever basket nonsense, don’t mention it in front of me, how about it?" Mai felt he had lowered the average intelligence of his whole family by himself.
"Deal!"
Qian smiled and turned to the bizarre mother and daughter, "This lady here said we look like seductive women dressed fashionably, suspecting we’re women from the entertainment places or mistresses kept by a boss, because we look better than her daughter. To be honest, wanting to look uglier than your daughter is really hard, you’ve got to have bad luck in your reincarnation. Then this Puffy Eyes who looks worse than us added, she thinks we don’t look like decent women because her brother doesn’t even drink, and she saw alcohol at our table when she passed by, hence she judges that we aren’t proper women. That’s the gist of their conversation, intermixed with some inappropriate language I won’t translate to avoid tainting your ears."
The phony man’s mother’s face turned green.
She didn’t know the small boss studying at Qian’s school was originally from their place and knew the dialect well.
"Sorry, we don’t sell our bodies; I’m a doctor, she’s an entrepreneur. Not all women have to rely on men to live; women who drink aren’t necessarily bad, and men who don’t drink aren’t necessarily successful. At least, we bought our houses through our abilities, unlike certain incapable men who rely on marriage to save decades of struggle for a wed house."
Xian’er was conquered by Qian, Qian was amazing!
These words were just too sharp, look at the expressions of the exposed mother and daughter, really delightful—wait a minute!
Save decades of struggle? Xian’er had a flash of insight and looked at Qian, realizing what Qian’er just said in the restroom.
Qian’er said, as long as she understands these people’s origins, she can figure out Schrodinger’s bodyguard situation!
Save decades of struggle! Could it be that Mai is in it for her money?
Qian nodded to her, "Some naive but wealthy girls look like big prey in some people’s eyes; why not eat them if you can? They think women have no value besides childbirth and being used, am I right?"
Cold sweat broke out in Xian’er’s heart, grateful that Qian’er was with her! If Mahadi had taken advantage of her vulnerability, her father’s hard-earned empire over the years might have been taken away!
"Such phony men’s families aren’t worth sympathizing; they always want to marry girls with better family conditions but won’t treat girls marrying into their family well, because in their eyes, these girls are cheap, worthless, and foolish, and they just feel lucky their son has charm to marry without spending money."
The phony man’s family provided Qian a chance for a double entendre; she not only effectively mocked them but also hinted at Mai’s true intentions towards Xian’er.
What would have happened without Qian’s hints?
Xian’er couldn’t help but quickly think about it.
After breaking up with her ex and about to take over such a big business, she would face fierce competition, her body and mind would definitely be particularly exhausted, if at this time, Mahadi cared for her devotedly, then after helping a little and revealing his real identity, would she feel touched?
Maybe.
If someone strategically pursued her in a vulnerable and exhausted state, she is very likely to be gradually moved; especially after a relationship ends, what would happen?
The more Xian’er thought about it, the more scared she became, heart pounding.
Qian casually faced the mother and daughter, hands in her pockets, speaking to them yet directing her words to Xian’er.
"What are you talking about? We don’t understand." The phony man’s mother said uncomfortably, unexpectedly, Qian had heard everything she and her family said.
"Your ’successful’ son’s face is truly thick, needing to rely on women to save decades of struggle, and you glorify it instead of feeling ashamed; if a girl follows your family, you’d think women are idiots, if she doesn’t fall for your tricks, you’d consider having her unmarried and pregnant to force her family into marriage, am I right? Even if getting pregnant before marriage was your design, you’d still think the girl is so cheap!"
"You, you, what nonsense are you talking!"
"It’s none of your business! Mom, let’s go! This woman’s brain is out of whack! We don’t need to talk to her!"
The mother and daughter, whose secret was exposed by Qian, could only use a feeble rebuttal to answer Qian, unwilling to stay as they couldn’t match Qian in words, quickly left.
Qian’s words were partly to prepare for future encounters with this mother and daughter and partly for Xian’er’s sake. She glanced at Xian’er’s belly, her face pale, touching her belly feeling a terrifying glimpse.
Could Mahadi even want to use force, a literal bow to force her to marry him by pregnancy?
