Chapter 710: Chapter 684: Drama Everywhere
Zhu Dexi laughed, “You’re still the same, not at all refined.”
But every sentence, could touch his heart, especially that word “brother”, which made Zhu Dexi feel like crying.
Usually, he was used to bickering with Yu Minglang, but today Zhu Dexi didn’t want to bicker with Yu Minglang anymore. Before Yu Minglang could insult him, Zhu Dexi looked at Yu Minglang’s bookshelf with full of emotions.
Very special, because there was nothing on it.
“Is this where you keep the honor of your unit?” Zhu Dexi knew Yu Minglang, because if he hadn’t left, if he could still be Yu Minglang’s partner, he would have done the same thing.
“One day, that place will be filled with the glory of my company.” Yu Minglang said confidently, his company will definitely go a step further.
...
“Yes, I believe you, you can do it.”
“I’m not used to you not arguing with me.”
“I can’t lift it anymore after fighting for so many years, so it’s time to stop. One, I’m leaving. You do well because not only do you tell legends, but you are also an unfading one in my heart.”
“So fucking disgusting…” Yu Minglang muttered, and Zhu Dexi waved at him.
“No need to send me off, I’ll be back in a few days anyway. By then, my wife Shuixian and I will still have to mooch off your family, so we will have plenty of chances to meet.”
But Zhu Dexi knew that even if he had many opportunities to interact with Yu Minglang’s wife in the future, he would no longer be Yu Minglang’s employee or partner. He was going to start his struggle again as a businessman husband.
As he was leaving, Zhu Dexi heard Yu Minglang, who had never given him a good face after fighting with him for several years, say goodbye in a very formal tone.
“Friends, come back often.”
Zhu Dexi let out an indistinguishable grunt. He didn’t dare to look back, afraid that Yu Minglang would see his tears.
Goodbye, one.
…
Xiao Qian’s dinner was full of hidden undercurrents, and all around her were dramatic ups and downs.
Whether it was confronting Old Mai or directly fighting against Li who was Liu Mei’s boyfriend’s peculiar family, Xiao Qian stayed calm throughout and never lost her footing.
After she and Shuixian sang a double act and deliberately leaked Yu Minglang’s phone number to Old Mai, Old Mai hadn’t come in for a long time.
She didn’t know if he went to buy a phone or continued to smoke to calm his emotions.
The meal was over, but Xiao Qian was not in a hurry to leave.
She ordered a pot of green tea and drank it with Shuixian while listening to the voices of the weird family coming from the neighboring table.
After being blocked and insulted by Xiao Qian outside the bathroom door, the family didn’t learn their lesson. When they came back, they talked even louder, seemingly on purpose so that Xiao Qian could hear them.
The general content of their conversation was about how accomplished and capable their son was, probably trying to wash away the shame of Xiao Qian downplaying their son’s ability to buy a house.
After praising their son for a while, seeing that there was no reaction from Xiao Qian’s side, they stopped praising their son and turned the topic to their son’s future daughter-in-law.
The family collectively picked on the girl, portraying her as completely worthless. The main point was that their son marrying such a person would be too unfair.
Shuixian sighed helplessly.
“Isn’t this worse than Old Mai?”
Although Old Mai wanted to take advantage of her family’s wealth, at least he pretended to be deeply in love, disguised as a bodyguard to get close to her, and got sentimental when he was exposed, if Xiao Qian didn’t stop him, Old Mai would have said sentimentally to Shuixian, “Ever since I saw Shuixian, I’ve been willing to give up my worth and come here to be a bodyguard because I love Shuixian’s money!”
These people didn’t even bother to pretend to be in love. On the one hand, they coveted Liu Mei’s house, and on the other hand, they looked down on Liu Mei. Shuixian couldn’t stand it anymore.
“Qian’er, analyze this psychologically. What kind of mentality is this?”
“Men who live off women and their families never thank women for everything they bring. Instead, they feel that the woman is cheap and deserved it because the man is too charming and capable. To guess the thoughts of some selfish people with normal human thinking usually leads to only two results: 1. Disgust, 2. Incomprehension as to why such people exist in this world. So congratulations, you’re still a normal person.”
Annoying people won’t disappear just because you’re annoyed by them. There are countless annoying ghosts around. That’s life.
This peculiar family mainly discussed the issues of who will inherit the house, the woman’s family buying a car, and looking down on the woman. The girl who was being criticized hadn’t shown up yet, so the topic changed again.
“Xiao Qing should find someone with a house and car when she looks for a boyfriend in the future, not like your brother who has to rely on dowry of a house and car to get married.” The middle-aged older woman said.
They made such a clear distinction between their daughters-in-law and their own daughters, considering other people’s daughters as idiots, while only their own daughters were smart. Shuixian couldn’t help but admire Xiao Qian’s insight into human nature, which was exactly like what Xiao Qian said!
When Xiao Qian tasted the tea, there was a hint of hidden ridicule at the corner of her mouth.
It wasn’t that she was extremely cunning, but her job exposed her to all sorts of people, among which the most common were those like these.
Not everyone has a grateful heart, and more often, there are those who eat meat and curse their mothers after putting down their chopsticks.
“What time is it? Why hasn’t she come yet? Xiao Qing, go outside and make a phone call to ask where she’s dead!” The middle-aged woman, after eating and drinking to her heart’s content, became even angrier when she saw that the girl’s family hadn’t arrived yet.
Did they expect them to pay the bill? That’s not how to do things at all. On the first day of meeting their future mother-in-law, not picking her up at the train station was already very unreasonable, but how could they be so slow when it came to paying the bill?
“My phone is out of battery.”
Swollen Eye Pao Xiao Qing, called by her name, stood up wanting to go out to make a call. As she passed Xiao Qian’s table, Xiao Qian, who had been waiting, stood up and handed her phone to her.
“You can use mine.”
Swollen Eye Pao Xiao Qing hesitated for a moment but immediately accepted it.
Why not use it if it’s free? After using it, she didn’t even thank her. Swollen Eye Pao Xiao Qing just thought it was Xiao Qian feeling guilty for her previous confrontation and wanted to make it up to them. These were the true thoughts of this family.
Xiao Qing took out the phone book, pressed a few numbers, and Liu Mei’s name and photo immediately appeared on the color screen.
Xiao Qing saw that it was different from her own blue screen and thought, could this be a high-tech video call? Why can she see the other person’s name and photo just by entering the number?
The phone was quickly connected.
“Sister-in-law, I’m outside right now, what’s up?” Liu Mei’s voice came through the speaker.
“Who are you calling? I’m Xiao Qing.”
“Xiao Qing?!” Liu Mei was surprised, how did her sister-in-law’s phone end up in Xiao Qing’s hands?
“My mom asked when you’re arriving; we’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
“I’ll be there soon, but how did my sister-in-law’s phone end up with you?”
“Sister-in-law…?” Swollen Eye Pao Xiao Qing was puzzled.
Xiao Qian waved at her, “Hello, I’m Liu Mei’s sister-in-law, also known as the good-for-nothing, upside-down dowry, smoky ancestral grave man’s-wife Yu Liumei that your family talks about.”
The people at that table turned to stone.
