Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 750 - 724: Admit It or Not, You’re Convinced

"Forget it, people find me annoying anyway. The two of us have mismatched vibes. Come on, let’s drink!" Qiuqiu raised his glass.

Qian thought about Bai Jin’s painful confession just now, then looked at Qiuqiu covered in water. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: what if she introduced Bai Jin to Qiuqiu—

No, that won’t work.

Qian quickly discarded the idea. Matters of love require fate. She hadn’t forgotten Bai Jin’s clear dislike when she looked at Qiuqiu.

And Qiuqiu’s tone didn’t suggest he was very interested either. These two people were practically a modern version of "Pride and Prejudice."

"This year, I haven’t done much other than getting slapped. I guess I should focus more on my career. Qian, wish me luck." Qiuqiu raised his glass and said self-deprecatingly.

"I believe in you. Go for it." Qian raised her glass, suddenly struck by an idea.

"Do you and Meizi need an article published in the newspaper before your hobby class opens?"

"Yeah, I wanted to ask you to write it for me. Meizi said your writing skills are exceptional."

"Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll give you a Penguin account. You add her—there’s a girl specializing in writing articles. Just mention my name, and she’ll write it for you."

Qian wrote down the Penguin account left on the napkin by Bai Jin and gave it to Qiuqiu, thinking that she had created an opportunity for these two. Whether they could connect in the future was up to their own fate.

"Qiuqiu, lend me your phone." Qian thought about calling her older brother back. Her phone just ran out of battery, but when she dialed, he was temporarily on another call, so Qian gave up.

Her older brother should be fine, right? Drinking with Qiuqiu was more important. That matter was already settled, and Qian didn’t care at all.

...

"Oh no, oh no, it’s completely messed up. What should I do!" Her brother paced back and forth in his pajamas without any semblance of a big boss, while her sister-in-law, who’s off work today, sat at the vanity carefully doing her eyebrows and makeup.

Pretending not to hear her husband’s outburst.

"I can’t believe you’re so heartless! Such a big issue, and you still have the mind to put on makeup?" Her brother vented his anger.

Her sister-in-law dabbed some perfume on her wrist and took a gentle sniff. Being off work is great, you can apply makeup freely!

"So, what should I do? Should I lead the whole family to paint mourning makeup on you and let you experience a somber atmosphere?"

Her brother felt a pang of heartache.

"You heartless woman! You always spoil me, not realizing how hard it is to be in charge. Yu Laomao’s wife is also spoiled, doing such big things without consulting me and making decisions on her own!"

Such heartbreak!

Her sister-in-law slammed the perfume bottle onto the table, "What’s wrong with Qian? Qian did the right thing! What, is deceiving people during marriage justified? If Qian hadn’t exposed it, what would our family become? Accomplices! We’re doctors, not like you guys who only have money on your mind."

She didn’t think Qian did anything wrong and felt that’s how it ought to be done!

Oh, is having money so great? Does having money mean you can collude with doctors to deceive perfectly good girls?

Though her sister-in-law hadn’t raised a daughter, she herself was a woman. The thought of being tricked like that infuriated her. She stood by Qian’s decision.

Her brother got angrier seeing his sister-in-law’s stance.

"You women only know fake nobleness! Money might be rubbish, but who can live without it? Without me, the money-driven man fighting outside, where would you and the kids have a big house? That small bottle you casually threw costs thousands—hey, what are you doing!"

Her brother narrowly dodged the perfume bottle allegedly worth thousands that his sister-in-law threw at him. The sleek little bottle smashed on the floor, shattered into pieces. Her sister-in-law pointed at him angrily.

"Since you dislike my spending, I’m leaving right now, taking the kids with me, back to my parents’!"

"Can’t you learn something good from mom!" Packing up and leaving with the kids is surely her mother’s signature move?

"I’m going to tell mom! That you said she’s no good! I’ll also let dad know you not only wanted to deceive Qian to help a gay person scam a marriage to make dirty money but also said mom’s no good!"

Her brother hurriedly stopped her, "Don’t be rash; let’s talk nicely!"

Her sister-in-law smacked him, "Yu Mingli, you earn too much money; have you become arrogant?"

Her brother felt aggrieved, thinking if he were truly arrogant, would he be able to endure domestic violence from this still charming woman?

"Calm down. I’m anxious because my business lost, and I offended people. It’s not directed at you. Please don’t get upset and harm your health..."

"You’re not targeting me, so it’s fine to target Qian? Use your brain! If you help others perform such shady acts just for money, do you think dad would let it slide? Qian did well!"

Her brother being fearful of his wife wasn’t a new thing. Even when his sister-in-law scolded him, he dared not retaliate, but he was truly stressed. Offending people might make the future difficult.

"Yu Laomao called. He must want to apologize on behalf of Qian’er. I’ll take the call. If his attitude is good, I won’t hold it against Qian." After domestic violence, her brother found his own way out.

"Get lost! Not hold it against her? How big-headed are you? How much profit has Qian secured for you over the years? How can you shamelessly say you won’t hold it against her?"

Her brother dared not provoke the tigress and grudgingly went around the perfume shards to the other side of the room to take the call.

"Brother, still mad?"

"Yu Laomao! Do you think I’m mad? Did Qian ask you to call? Just when that girl is usually sharp as a monkey, why is she dragging her feet at crucial moments?"

"Haha... Brother, you’re getting carried away, daring to say my wife drags her feet?" Yu Minglang laughed coldly twice.

There’s no way Qian would proactively call Yu Minglang about this matter. Yu Minglang overheard it using eavesdropping devices; he protected Qian by placing a device on her cellphone charm. Knowing Qian’s phone ran out of battery, he personally called.

"Yu Laomao! Your brother is troubled enough, yet here you are, adding to the chaos? Can’t you comfort your brother a bit?"

Her brother, knowing the matter was already settled by Qian without room for maneuver, couldn’t truly be angry at her—being mad at Qian would offend not only his wife but also his mother, father, second brother and wife, and third brother...

Indeed, Qian now had the Yu Family completely under her sway, including the hardest to deal with, Mr. Yu, who also liked Qian and called her once a month. Even her brother could barely receive one call every two months!

Not to mention Yu Laomao, who might as well have ’wife’s slave’ carved on his face!

"Brother, not only are you getting carried away, but you’ve lost your mind. Honestly, I suspect you might be showing early signs of dementia. When can my nephew take over the family business? If you keep running it, the ship might sink."

"My son just started middle school; what business can he manage—no, Yu Minglang! How can you talk to your brother like that?"

"Do you not admit i was right? My wife did your family a huge favor. Can’t you use your brain for a second?"
