Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 717 - 691: The Invincible Straight-A Couple in the World

Chapter 717: Chapter 691: The Invincible Straight-A Couple in the World

Hearing Xiao Qian’s question, Old Mai became excited and introduced his technique with an air of unlimited glory.

“At first, I tried to ignite the charcoal with paper, but it was laborious. So, I thought of using branches, but as you know, branches have a high moisture content. Then I collected some dried branches and even tried pouring oil on them, but the fire still wouldn’t light up. So, I thought of using the power of wind. I fanned it with a fan, and although the process was complicated, I did it.”

Liu Mei and Shuixian, who were working together on marinating the fish, couldn’t help but look up when they heard Old Mai’s words. Seeing the gadget in Yu Minglang’s hand, they both laughed.

Xiao Qian laughed too, and even laughed out loud.

Old Mai had interacted with her a few times before; he’d seen her being cunning or giving orders more often, but seeing her laugh so happily was a first. Her laughter, in Old Mai’s eyes, was like the ripples on a lake blown away by a gentle breeze, completely entrancing – Huh?

Old Mai felt annoyed as he found that his view of Xiao Qian’s laughter had been blocked by Yu Minglang, who perfectly obstructed all of his sightline, not even leaving a single strand of his daughter-in-law’s hair for another man’s imagination!

...

Interrupted, Old Mai felt a bit displeased, but still proudly lifted his chin and boasted to Ming Lang.

“I can make fire!”

“Your way of making fire is barely different from a caveman’s. What is there to be proud of?”

“Why do you have to say that in front of her? Why do you have to say that about me?!” Old Mai couldn’t bear being criticized by Yu Minglang in front of Xiao Qian. He wanted to show her that he wasn’t a useless “little brother”!

“Just because…” Yu Minglang shook the gadget in his hand and grinned at Old Mai.

“The advancement of tools promotes the improvement of human life, fostering civilization and economic development. So, modern people like to use this thing called a blower for outdoor fires.”

If you have a blower and don’t use it, instead opting for such a stupid way of making fire, aren’t you foolish?!

Old Mai pointed to the mini-blower in his hand. He hadn’t used this kind of thing when having BBQs abroad!

He had bought all the barbecue tools, but he didn’t know what else was needed, so he asked for a full set from the store. The gadget had been thrown into the bag of charcoal, and he hadn’t understood what it was for.

So that beautiful laugh from Xiao Qian earlier, even more beautiful than the Mona Lisa, was actually mocking him, not encouraging him?

“A pig, its bristles burned, my daughter-in-law, finish the verse!” Yu Minglang couldn’t help bursting into poetry after seeing Old Mai’s expression.

“An idiot, exposing his mind!”

“Huh? You’re quite good at this, little girl. Let’s go again!”

Yu Minglang thought for a moment, “Real and fake, blurred distinctions!”

The first part described Old Mai’s burnt fur, while the second part expressed Yu Xiaoqiang’s delight in watching Old Mai being teased by Xiao Qian.

“Big and small, little brother!”

The cooperative couple who enjoyed teasing others high-fived in celebration. The Scholar Couple, unbeatable in the world, Old Iron, no problem!

Watching Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang, the Scholar Couple, enjoy themselves so much, Shuixian couldn’t help but join in on the fun.

She didn’t understand those crooked, insulting poems, but Shuixian remembered the songs those DJs shouted when she went to night shows.

“New era of grilled fish, new era’s people—”

Boss Qian accidentally joined in.

“The new era’s Old Mai, who bathes without closing the door?”

“Why don’t you close the door?” Yu Minglang surprisingly chimed in again.

“Because there’s a woman outside the door…”

“Oh yes~” Yu Minglang and Xiao Qian high-fived again.

Old Mai felt mocked again. Liu Mei looked at Old Mai’s dark, garbage-like expression and then at her brother and sister-in-law’s perfect teamwork. She wasn’t good at shouting out poems like Shuixian or matching her brother and sister-in-law’s literary talent, but Liu Mei could sing.

Old Mai’s expression reminded her of a popular song from the year before, which she accidentally started singing.

“I should be under a car, not inside it, seeing how sweet you two are. That way, it’s easier for me to give up and find the courage to leave!”

Old Mai really wanted to leave. How could this song be so fitting?

“I’ve been thinking about these lyrics for a long time, and I just don’t get it. Why should they be under a car?” Liu Mei asked after humming the song.

“Maybe because they are a mechanic, with a face that dirty.” Yu Minglang glanced at Old Mai suggestively. Xiao Qian looked at him, and he did indeed resemble a mechanic. She couldn’t help but laugh!

She laughed again… but it was mocking him! As Old Mai looked at Xiao Qian’s face, it turned into Yu Minglang’s.

Yes, Brother Lang had the power to steal the spotlight and prevent other men from looking at his wife. Great!

“Brother, is it okay to put these seasonings in?” Liu Mei asked Yu Minglang.

“No, move aside; I’ll do it.” Yu Minglang rolled up his sleeves and skillfully added the seasonings. As he was marinating the fish, he set up the fish soup next to him. He demonstrated to Old Mai how to quickly ignite the fire with a blower, skillfully igniting a fire beside the barbecue grill for an outdoor fish soup.

His work was visually satisfying and efficient. A picnic is the best occasion to display a man’s charm. When the most primitive things are utilized perfectly, if done well, it can be very attractive to young ladies, like Brother Lang, for example.

Of course, if done poorly, it may have the opposite effect, like with Old Mai.

Yu Minglang perfectly demonstrated the true outdoor capabilities of a real man, successfully attracting the attention of the three ladies.

“Qian’er, is there anything he can’t do?” Shuixian asked Xiao Qian. She felt he was the perfect man, capable of everything!

Xiao Qian nodded, “Yes, there is.”

“What?” Old Mai’s spirits lifted.

“He might not be able to turn a simple problem into something as complicated as you do.”

It hurt right to the heart, Old Iron!

Yu Minglang laughed. “I really couldn’t make lighting a fire look like such a mess. In light of your appreciation, I’ll let you have the first tin foil roasted fish. Brother, I’ve decided to forgive you for your unsteady stance just now.”

“Thank you for your magnanimity!” Xiao Qian pretended to bow, and Old Mai watched with envy, sourly saying,

“In our part of the world, men don’t cook; that’s women’s work.”

“Oh, so that’s why you can’t find a daughter-in-law here.” Yu Minglang perfectly shut him down.

Old Mai felt hurt again. He couldn’t beat Yu Minglang, and his wit wasn’t as sharp as Yu Minglang’s!

“Qian’er, does your Xiaoqiang have any unmarried brothers? Introduce me!” Shuixian joked.

“I do have an unmarried good brother.” Yu Minglang chimed in.

“Who? Haven’t all your brothers married?” Shuixian had met the Yu family’s brothers; they were all outstanding individuals, but their children seemed to be quite old, right?

“Zhu Dexi isn’t married yet. He’s also my brother. I heard his family is actively arranging blind dates for him since he was dumped. Meizi, why don’t you dump that useless dim-sum dwarf boyfriend of yours? I can introduce you to him.”

Shuixian was hurt now. Daodao was going on blind dates?

Damn you, Zhu Daodao! Shuixian clenched her teeth in anger. After she sent the break-up text message, Daodao had silently accepted, and now he was preparing to meet other women on blind dates?
