Chapter 746 - 720: Whatever You Say Is Right
Brilliant! The onlookers couldn’t help but secretly give a thumbs-up. As expected of Qian, her twisty words got people dizzy. Looking at Yu Minglang, who was both a bit embarrassed and secretly pleased with her high praise, yet unwilling to let it go, he fully demonstrated a woman’s profound ability to coax her man.
Yu Minglang thought that this skill of lowering defenses first with flattery and occupying the moral high ground, wasn’t it his?
Previously, he used such methods on Qian, though it mostly didn’t work. Qian would hit him when needed, but after she refined it and used it on him, Yu Minglang felt thoroughly pleased, as if he was a frog filled with old wine, secretly delighted inside. Yet he still had to pretend to be serious, which was tough...
"My husband knows me best, he also knows my bottom line in love, he understands that my lifestyle would never have problems, don’t you agree, hubby?!"
Qian’s brainwashing five hits didn’t just work on Fugui; they also worked on Yu Minglang. Usually, just calling him hubby once would make him dizzy, and now she’d said it five times in one breath. The flowers didn’t matter anymore; his mind was full of her sweet voice calling him hubby.
"Isn’t it right, hubby?"
"Yes!" Whatever you say is right!
"That’s it. If my brother was in ancient times, he would definitely be a muddle-headed ruler, right?" Liumei voiced what everyone was thinking. Looking at her brother’s initial aggressive stance, everyone thought he would drink up the vinegar jar, but unexpectedly, with Qian’s easy rhythm and confusing tricks, Yu Minglang was utterly defeated!
"That’s quite contrary, your brother would totally be a wise emperor from ancient times because without me, no other woman could have such an influence on his judgment. A person’s IQ decreases only when facing someone they like; with those they dislike, their mind stays clear."
"Why is it like this?" Liumei was also led astray by Qian’s topic.
While Qian secretly delighted, she hugged the troublesome bouquet of roses and walked towards the bathroom, moving the flowers out of Yu Minglang’s sight to more easily shift the topic and eliminate negative impact—all her lifetime learning in psychology was used here, perfect!
"Because people’s IQ only drops when they’re extremely happy or angry, so your opponents try all means to irritate you and strike when your IQ is low. The actions of those you love may make your IQ drop, so finding a mutually loving partner is the best way to maintain a marriage. When your happy IQ decreases, his decreases too, so neither two fools can outwit the other!"
Everyone nodded, agreeing that’s how it works!
Watching Qian strain all her lifetime learning to successfully change the subject, everyone was also led astray by her, while Yu Minglang felt both helpless and amused.
With a wife like this, what else could he do?
Just as Qian was glad she had diverted the topic, her unhelpful teammate Liumei suddenly said:
"Didn’t that foreigner initially like the daffodils? How did he suddenly change to giving my sister-in-law flowers?"
Qian decided she would later sneakly take all the good tea Liao Fugui gave Liumei—this silly girl’s one line just pushed her back to the liberation era!
Yu Minglang is that kind of man who gets a black face when jealous, hoping to divert the topic and give him the cold treatment, waiting until he regained some sanity to analyze things together. Yet Liumei...
Qian sneakily glanced over, and sure enough, the Asian Vinegar King was online again!
"How do you analyze him giving you flowers?" Thankfully, the Vinegar King’s face was only a bit dark but not to the extent of biting everyone; it showed Yu Minglang still respected Qian.
"I think Mai’s purpose for doing this is to drive a wedge between me and the daffodils."
Qian threw out an answer that left Yu Minglang both amused and relieved of his jealousy.
"Driving a wedge between us?" The daffodils hadn’t even reacted, but Qian’s expression showed she was serious.
"Yes, just think, his original aim was to pursue you. Once I exposed it, he harbored resentment towards me, so he thought of this fish-dying-and-net-breaking plan to drive a wedge between us. Women have a competitive nature, and if he showed he liked me but not you, even if you didn’t like him, you’d be uncomfortable. Then he could take the opportunity to drive us apart, achieving the goal of alienating us."
"Is it that complicated?" The daffodils were confused by Qian’s twisty words.
"Exactly. Once we turn against each other, and you are no longer close to me, he’d think you have no counselors for advice, then take the opportunity to get close to you and win you over!"
Qian, a woman too intelligent yet emotionally insensitive, turned a simple matter into a conspiracy theory, making it unnecessarily complex.
"Why do I feel..." It’s not like that? The daffodils felt that Mai really liked Qian.
If she was a man, she would surely like someone like Qian too. Compared to her, except for having a wealthy dad, how could she compare to Qian? Besides, she could never be jealous of Qian; she knew Qian’s excellence better than anyone. Actually, the daffodils always wondered about one thing.
A woman like Qian, except for Yu Minglang, had no other pursuers around her, which was illogical.
The daffodils didn’t know that Yu Minglang had already bought off all the relationships around Qian for a long time. If anyone showed interest in his wife, he immediately stepped in to settle it, killing all potential rivals in the bud.
"So what do you plan to do?" Yu Minglang asked Qian.
The daffodils glanced questioningly at Yu Minglang. Qian hadn’t figured it out, but how come he didn’t either? From Xiaoqiang’s tone, he seemed to approve of Qian’s words?
"I plan to play along. If he wants to pursue, let him. I’d maintain an attitude of not initiating, not being serious, not being responsible, not cooperating, leaving him unable to figure out my routine. Meanwhile, the daffodils should seize the opportunity to resolve her family matters, and when he starts to realize it’s too late, by then the daffodils have regained power and reconciled her emotions, he would just be embarrassed and return home. We’d also have cooperated with Xiaoqiang’s mission, codenamed ’Flood and Beasts’ to drive him away!"
Perfect!
Yu Minglang was silent for two seconds, then revealed a mysterious smile, "Hmm, you’re right."
Watching these two exchanging smiles, the daffodils suddenly understood.
Qian surely didn’t realize someone genuinely wanted to pursue her and approached it as a complicated conspiracy theory, while whether Yu Minglang didn’t realize either, or he did but still supported Qian—this matter was worth pondering.
