Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 550 - 524: Seize Every Opportunity

Chapter 550: Chapter 524: Seize Every Opportunity

“Brother Lang, what are you doing?”

Chen Zilong looked puzzled at his newfound idol and super brother-in-law Yu Minglang. He saw Yu Minglang holding a bottle of newly purchased iced green tea, his hands shielding his face as he bowed towards Xiao Qian.

Seeing Xiao Qian’s eyes round and full of anger, Yu Minglang also made a mouth shape at Xiao Qian. He spoke slowly, so Xiao Qian could see what he was saying. He was saying, “Long live! Long, long live!”

Damn, this bastard! He’s mocking her again for being as domineering as a female emperor.

After teasing Xiao Qian, Yu Minglang turned back to his silly little brother-in-law and said with justified indignation.

“Ever heard of a ‘Hu ban’?”

“A shin guard? The one you tie around your leg?” The slacker student is confused again.

Yu Minglang crouched to the ground and wrote out the two characters with a small stick. Chen Zilong wiped off his cold sweat, “Brother Lang, I don’t recognize these characters…”

Would it really be okay to hurt the slacker student like this every day? He’s just a kid!

“Hu ban was the tool used by ancient ministers when they met the king. It was held in both hands for recording the king’s orders or wishes. Understand?”

“Oh, I remember now. It’s that thing that looks like a brick that people in ancient costume dramas hold, right? Oh, it turns out that thing has the same function as taking notes in class!”

An ancient person’s notebook!

“Yes, pretty much. Later on, when paper was mass-produced, this became a ceremonial object.”

Being with brother-in-law is a learning experience! He is both intellectually and physically capable, knowledgeable about astronomy and geography. Wait a minute, what does the “Hu ban” have anything to do with brother-in-law bowing to older sister?

Chen Zilong hasn’t been roped in yet, “Brother Lang, why were you bowing to my sister?”

Even their daily torment of each other shows their compatibility. While Yu Minglang was making flirtatious eyes at Xiao Qian, he didn’t forget to throw an extra blow to Chen Zilong.

“Da Long, the invention of paper is one of China’s Four Great Inventions. Now, I have a history question for you: which of China’s Four Great Inventions appeared during the Han Dynasty?”

“…”

Look, when you don’t want to answer a question, just throw another question back. Simple.

After playing with his slacker little brother-in-law, Yu Minglang also throws a flirtatious glance at the queen.

Xiao Qian was initially a bit upset, but half of her emotions flew away after his teasing.

She really didn’t know what to say about him. This guy is incredibly sharp, always able to catch her off guard when she’s emotionally down. With this kind of fiance by her side, there’s no chance for her OCD to flare up!

After sending Jia Xiufang and Chen Zilong into a taxi, Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang walked back to his side.

It was just over ten minutes’ walk to get home. The cool evening breeze helped soothe her mood.

Yu Minglang sneakily tucked her little hand into his pocket. Xiao Qian still held a grudge against him for calling her Wu Zetian and wouldn’t let him hold her hand.

She pulled her hand away and walked quickly ahead, not wanting to talk to this idiot.

Yu Minglang chased after her and stubbornly held onto her hand. Xiao Qian couldn’t shake him off so she kicked his shoe, only to be caught in his arms.

“Was the wine good?” He asked with a mischievous smile.

“Get lost!”

“In front of Aunt, you act like a little lady, not drinking a drop of wine. You must have been jealous watching me drink, right?”

“You really think I’m an alcoholic?” If he dares say yes, she’ll turn around and go home, to get drunk alone!

“No no, am I not the alcoholic instead, can’t I be an alcoholic~” He joked and hugged her, pulling her towards home.

There was someone walking their dog at night. Xiao Qian looked at the old lady leading the dog and thought of her mother, feeling a pang in her heart.

“I’m not against my mom finding someone else. I don’t want her to be left with only a dog when she gets old.”

Even if children are devoted, they can’t always stay with their parents. Finding a suitable person to take care of her mother would ease her mind.

“Yes, I know.”

“You know that you just mocked me for being Wu Zetian?” Don’t think she had forgotten about this. She remembered it crystal clear.

“Didn’t I do that because I found your performance of playing the head of the household particularly adorable and wanted to tease you?”

Most families are run by the parents, but in his family, little Qian Bao has to be the head at a young age. She has to manage both big and small matters, even her parents’ matters.

“Really?” She looked at him sideways. He then tilted her face back and kissed her before letting go.

“I just don’t want you to be too tired.”

“So, did you think what I did was right?”

“Yes, yes, yes, you’re right about everything, you’ve got a big heart, and anything you say is right.”

“Get lost! You think I’m wrong!”

“No, no, everything our Qian Bao does is right. But have you heard this phrase, ‘Man proposes, God disposes’? Whether you can achieve your goal depends on fate, not stubbornness.”

“Why do I feel like you’re trying to play mind games?”

“Qian Bao, have you ever come across such a case where some women lament about their miserable marriages, and to you, ending the marriage seems to be the key to ending the misery, but she doesn’t want to hear you tell her to divorce. She consults you only to ask how not to divorce, what’s on her mind is how to change her husband and feels extremely unhappy when she can’t.”

“There are many such cases. I don’t only deal with women, but also men. This is connected to human nature –– hold on! Yu Xiaoqiang, are you mocking me?!”

Seeing her about to get angry, Yu Minglang hurriedly tries to explain cheerfully, “No, that’s not what I mean. What I’m saying is, some people just like to live in a twisted way. You, from the perspective of a daughter, don’t want your mother to be in danger, but perhaps your mother doesn’t think the same way. If you’re not a twisted candy, how would you know that a twisted candy doesn’t enjoy being twisted?”

“You’re the twisted candy––wait a minute, you know I’m opposed to this because I don’t want my mother to be in danger, not because I think they are of different social status?”

Yu Minglang has a sixth sense beyond common people, although when he encounters Xiao Qian, his sixth sense doesn’t work. Yet when it comes to others, it is pretty accurate.

“My Qian Bao is so protective of her family. Others might think your mother and Director Liao are too different and not suited, and you might also say the same to your mother, but in your heart, you certainly don’t think that way. How is it, does your big brother understand you?”

According to his family Xiao Mei’s protective tendency, her mom is absolutely the best in the world in her heart. No matter if it’s a fourth-rank official or a top first-rank official, they are all worthy of her.

So the large set of reasons she told Jia Xiufang are all superficial, which she used to deceive her mother.

The real reason is one, Father Liao’s profession is dangerous and she doesn’t want her mom to get involved. Even if her mom doesn’t care about this, Xiao Qian has to let Father Liao remember the good of her mom who is selfless, and can’t let him take advantage and think that it is Jia Xiufang who is marrying up.

Xiao Qian couldn’t rebut, because Yu Minglang’s words hit her right in the heart.

“When we get home, I’m going to silence you.”

“Why!” The person who understands you the most is me, why do you want to silence me!

“You know too much!” Bosses don’t like their minds to be read, she was having a good time being the Queen Mother, but after his analysis, she felt exposed.

The boss doesn’t like to be exposed, she feels like he saw through her!

“If I were to say what’s hidden behind your actions, you might want me gone even more. So, I won’t say it.”
