Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 728 - 702: Fugui Brainwashed

Liumei entered the bedroom, while Fugui stood in the living room, flushed red, savoring the glimpse he’d just caught.

"Have you had breakfast?" Qian asked.

"I have." Fugui walked over to the sofa and sat down, feeling very thirsty, and grabbed the bottle of mineral water from the coffee table to chug it.

"Are you busy today?" Qian had a sense of what was happening upon seeing this.

"Not too busy, I’ve got some things to do. I need to attend a meeting. Didn’t you introduce an intern to me? Let her come and I’ll take her to the hospital."

"Oh, if you’re so busy, then forget it. I’ll find someone else to help Liumei."

"What’s wrong with Liumei?"

Qian cast an amused glance at the tightly closed bedroom door and signaled to Shui Xian, "Shui Xian, go check on Liumei. She might need help choosing an outfit and could use a chat."

Shui Xian understood that Qian wanted to talk alone with this much-admired Liao Fugui, and clearly didn’t want Liumei to know the contents.

"Don’t worry, I won’t let her come out. You go girl!" Shui Xian looked at Liao Fugui, his gaze reminiscent of a rural farmer inspecting a large beast, sizing him up and down.

What the heck... Haven’t you seen him before?

Shui Xian confirmed once again she hadn’t been mistaken, patting Qian on the shoulder, "I truly believe Liao Fugui’s personal qualities outshine Ma Lv. If you settle this, I’ll add another bag for you."

The Ma Family had already made the onlooking Shui Xian unable to stand it, eager to mess things up.

"Make it a men’s bag; my Xiaoqiang also needs one for his phone." Qian clapped hands with Shui Xian, and seeing Qian like this made Shui Xian assured, since Qian dared to ask for something, it meant she was sure of herself.

Liao Fugui watched the interaction between the two women, puzzled, as Shui Xian gave Qian a thumbs up before heading into the room to hold Liumei back and ensure she wouldn’t come out.

Qian beckoned to Fugui with her finger, signaling him to come closer with an ear, and lowered her voice to ask.

"Fugui, would you be willing to intervene for justice, even if it means being the third party?"

"The third party" was a derogatory term utterly repellent in Liao Fugui’s high-minded life.

If Fugui saw anyone being the third party, he would recite quotes from great figures to dispel the negative impact.

But when this repellent term was linked with justice, Fugui’s brows furrowed.

"Qian’er, what do you mean?"

Fugui believed that even for justice, one shouldn’t be the third party; that would be too improper!

Liao Fugui was having none of it.

"I’m saying, for Liumei’s happiness, would you intervene as the third party to break up her marriage to that gold-digging guy?"

"She’s getting married?!"

Boxers! Big boxers!

It was like two bolts of lightning striking Liao Fugui’s heart; a clear sky thunderbolt!

"She’s not married yet, but if we don’t intervene, she might get married soon."

"For her happiness... we... should... not... interfere with her freedom to marry..."

Haha, breaking a sentence like this shows how insincere you are. Qian saw through it but didn’t say it, instead speaking mysteriously.

"But the guy’s family... tsk tsk, let me describe it this way: marrying Liumei off would be like going back to an evil old society, facing daily bullying from her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and the guy would be extra compliant, kicking out nothing but air. He’s excessively filial."

"If she... likes him, it’s fine..."

His voice trembled, and his face was pale. Qian suppressed her laughter with her self-control.

What does it mean to say one thing and mean another? Just look at Liao Fugui’s demeanor now and you’ll understand.

"But that man has issues, you know yesterday Yu Minglang mentioned Liumei’s grandma was sick and had no money, how did he react?"

"If grandma’s sick and has no money, how much does she need? I’ll transfer some from my card for emergencies."

"Don’t rush to flatter them; grandma passed six months ago. That was an excuse Xiaoqiang used, but this family..."

Qian told the story, and Fugui listened as if it were gibberish.

If Fugui didn’t like Liumei, Chen Xiaoqian could easily give up and exit the psychology profession! They’re not that close, yet they talk about borrowing money, tsk tsk tsk!

"Do you want her to marry into such misery?"

"The character’s really terrible... but she likes him." That’s the most frustrating part, if Soft Cotton really likes him, what can we do?

"She doesn’t like him!"

"Doesn’t like him?!" This sentence neither paused nor wavered, it was like dead wood coming back to life for Liao Fugui.

"She really doesn’t like him, the matter began from a ridiculous prophecy by her teacher..."

Qian took a few minutes to simply outline the cause and effect, emphasizing what this family was like, covering yesterday’s events.

Liao Fugui’s eyebrows twisted into knots.

"Qian’er, are you deliberately exaggerating others’ flaws to break them up?"

Could there really be such a cruel family? Liao Fugui was skeptical. As a man, he sincerely despised those who lived off others.

"If you think so, you can observe for yourself—today we’re going to eat buffet at brother’s real estate, would you like to join?"

"I..." Liao Fugui hesitated. He wasn’t very familiar with Liumei, would she find it strange if he suddenly joined?

When Qian spoke, Liumei had just finished changing her clothes and came out. Since they were going to such a place today, Shui Xian encouraged her to wear her only dress instead of dressing too casually, and Fugui was instantly focused on those straight long legs. Really long~

Qian noticed his stare fixed on her legs and started joking, saying loudly, "Oh, my Fugui is too busy, no time, huh? Okay, I’ll just push Liumei into the fire pit, let the Ma Family’s male chauvinists torment her to death!"

"I have time!" Fugui’s heart was set ablaze with fury.

If it were just for justice, he absolutely wouldn’t be the third party; but for that darling Soft Cotton Abs Long Legs lovely honey-colored skin pleasing lively personality stunning beauty at home Mei, Fugui decided none of that mattered anymore—everything could be thrown aside!

"Qian’er, could you tell your intern that we’ll go see the director in the following days?"

"Oh? Aren’t you busy?" Qian asked deliberately.

Fugui looked at Liumei, his eyes full of determination; no matter how busy, he would make room for Soft Cotton, such a fine girl couldn’t be allowed to jump into the fire pit!

Different conflicts required different solutions! He was determined to resolve Soft Cotton’s matrimonial dilemma!!!

Yes, since others are so busy, let them stand aside, bring them on, whatever it takes! Fugui has decided to win over this girl.
