Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 90: Third Update (100+ Monthly Tickets)

Yu Minglang packed meals for Qian’s family, and they were just as good as any meals ordered outside, which made Chen Zilong exclaim in surprise.

Qian looked at his unbecoming behavior and kicked him.

"Haven’t I talked about this with you before? Haven’t you seen or tasted anything good before? Embarrassing me outside like this!"

"Sis, why are you defending him already when you’re not even married yet? Besides, he’s so rich, he wouldn’t care about the cost of one meal. Jeez!" Chen Zilong got beaten by Qian again.

"What do you know, you idiot!" Qian looked at her brother’s face and wanted to hit him again.

"You ordered all the expensive stuff..." Every time Chen Zilong said something, Qian hit him, so he didn’t dare to speak anymore.

When Qian finally stopped, the spoiled brother shrank back into the sofa, carefully speaking.

"Sis, he’s really better than that jerk from before."

Hmph, always hitting people, but there’s no harm in complimenting your boyfriend, right? Chen Zilong thought with fear, trying to suck up by complimenting Yu Minglang.

Then—

"Who needs you to say that!" How dare he compare Yu Minglang with that jerk, Qian picked up a magazine and slapped it on his face, then turned and went upstairs.

Chen Zilong was dumbfounded.

What the heck, even sucking up gets me hit?

"Useless brat, all you think about is eating!" Jia Xiufang slapped her son on the head and went upstairs to find Qian.

Chen Zilong put a piece of meat in his mouth and mumbled while eating.

"Why does Mom hit me too..."

Qian saw Jia Xiufang had come in, and she spoke directly.

"Mom, don’t say anything, I know what I’m doing."

"... He really won’t bully you?" Jia Xiufang’s biggest fear was her daughter meeting the wrong person like she did.

"You see how much I bully him, did he fight back? Stop worrying about pointless things. It’s already good if I don’t beat him in the future, how could he ever hit me?"

If Yu Minglang could ever raise his hand against a woman, then the world would truly go crazy. His self-control is really superb, he never lost his temper in his previous life even when she was so difficult, well, except for once...

Qian imagined Yu Minglang losing his temper and couldn’t help but laugh.

Jia Xiufang pushed her, "What are you laughing about, silly girl!"

"No worries, he’s a tough guy. I’m training his emotional control skills, it’s all for economic contribution." Qian began to stretch the truth with a straight face.

"Qian’er, this relationship between you two, in my heart, I just feel uneasy... I always feel that the young man is too good, a bit..."

Good or bad, it needs comparison.

With Ni Jianren setting off Yu Minglang, even the young brat Chen Zilong knows who’s better, naturally Jia Xiufang understands too.

It’s precisely because he’s so good that she’s afraid her daughter will suffer.

"He’s in good condition, what’s wrong with mine? Am I missing an arm, a leg, or common sense?"

Qian’s emotions were all stirred up.

In fact, she hadn’t decided whether to be with Yu Minglang, after all between them lies a lifetime, a life that went through so much, she truly didn’t want to touch it.

But as she followed Yu Minglang’s path of thinking, she gradually accepted the relationship.

"There’s nothing wrong with my girl’s condition, but he’s still older than you, you have to go to school, and you’re living in separate places, if he lets you down..."

"Back at his old workplace, besides the mosquitoes that flew in, everything else was male, what are you worried about? Being someone with zero romantic experiences, what is there to fear? If anyone should be worried, it’s him worrying about us!" There’s no shortage of young men in college, so who should really be concerned here?

Jia Xiufang had nothing to say after hearing this from Qian, smacking her lips, "Why do I feel like the way you both talk is so similar?"

It’s always hard for others to argue back after they’ve already predicted what you’ll say.

"Birds of a feather flock together, all a fateful bond..."

"By the way, when you two were in the room, what did he say when he leaned over to whisper in your ear?" Jia Xiufang was still curious about this unresolved question.

"I won’t tell you."

Qian’s face warmed up, thinking about what he whispered in her ear earlier.

He said he liked her mischievous bad side, where she acts mean but deep down means well for him.

Jia Xiufang worried that Qian couldn’t handle Yu Minglang, so she deliberately put on a show for her mother, intending to scare Yu Minglang and see his reaction, but unexpectedly, he saw right through it in no time.

"Qian’er, I’m worried about you going to school... I’m afraid your father will cause trouble over there."

"What are you afraid of? Could he stir up trouble at school?" Qian firmly believed that the stunt Yu Minglang pulled outside the court would be enough to keep Chen Lin occupied for a while.

"He can do anything, that disheartening person!"

"Do you still think about him?"

"Do I care about him one bit! He treated the three of us like that, I’ll just consider him dead!"

Qian could dissipate her mother’s hatred, but she deliberately didn’t bring it up.

Some people, if they’re to be treated as enemies, should be considered as such, it makes no difference, the page has turned. That deadbeat dad shouldn’t be in her or her mother’s life.

"Mom, I’m about to go to school soon, there’s something I need to clarify with you: don’t keep in touch with those relatives from the Chen Family. I suppose they won’t come over soon, my dad doesn’t dare to tell them about the divorce, it’s because grandma is old, he’s afraid to tell her, and you also shouldn’t mention the divorce to the Chen Family for now."

"What about your fourth uncle’s family? Fourth aunt is nice to us, isn’t it awkward to hide this from them?" When it comes to people from the Chen Family, Jia Xiufang felt reluctant mainly for the fourth uncle’s family. Even though her relationship with Chen Lin has turned sour after the divorce, it’s been years, and hiding it from them feels a bit wrong.

"I’ll handle his side, just steer clear for now. Fourth uncle isn’t a bad person, but he’s easily swayed and can’t keep secrets. Once he knows about your divorce, he’ll inform the elders, and they’ll come to hassle you every day."

Qian is now the backbone of the family, dealing with everything.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you." Jia Xiufang had complete trust in her daughter.

"Also, keep your distance from my second uncle’s family, especially my second aunt. She’s a troublesome woman, getting close to her won’t do any good."

"I know she’s not great, but grandma still lives at their place. If I don’t stay on good terms with her, won’t grandma have to face her attitude?"

As the mother and daughter were chatting, Chen Zilong shouted from downstairs.

"Mom! My second aunt called!"

Jia Xiufang was about to go downstairs to answer the phone when Qian turned on the speaker mode, and her second aunt’s rude voice came through.

"Hurry up and take this old hag away, she’s messed up the bed, I’m furious!"

"Who’s the old hag? You think you’ll never get old?" Qian sharply retorted.

The old hag her second aunt referred to was Qian’s grandma, Jia Xiufang’s own mother.

"Going to college and now you don’t recognize your elders? How dare you talk back!"

"You dare call your own mother-in-law an old hag, I’m just learning from you."

Who’s this weakling daring to mouth off against the boss? Ridiculous!
