Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 987: Chapter 960: Mr Chen, You’re Quite Mischievous

Click.

A muffled noise came from the other end, then the call was hung up.

Qian guessed Mingxi had accidentally dropped the phone.

It seemed she guessed right.

Qian let out a long sigh.

The thing she feared the most had happened.

Yu Mingxi had someone in her heart, a man she liked.

But there was a 99% chance that this person wasn’t Hai Zhao; things were complicated.

Qian had just given Hai Zhao advice to determine if he really liked Yu Mingxi, but when crafting this diagnosis plan, Qian was certain Yu Mingxi wouldn’t fall in love with anyone.

Because her outward behavior suggested she loved herself more.

Yet the recent conversation made Qian suddenly realize something shocking: Yu Mingxi actually had someone in her heart!

If Hai Zhao confirmed that the person he liked was truly Yu Mingxi, wouldn’t he be left with no chance ever?

The reason Qian only needed a few words to confirm that Yu Mingxi had someone in her heart was all because of that three-second silence, which indicated inner turmoil in a woman with great self-control.

If the person in Yu Mingxi’s heart was Hai Zhao, why would she resist?

Qian picked up the phone and sent a text message.

If you don’t want to be trapped there and unable to escape for life, come find me.

About a few minutes later, Yu Mingxi replied to her with a text message.

Three days later, at my personal concert, come.

The truth will be revealed in three days.

Qian replied with an okay and closed her eyes to calculate.

The end of the first stage of treatment she gave to Hai Zhao was set for one month later.

Her original plan was to use a month as a node and buffer period, but now it seemed, this time was too long.

Qian had an unshakeable heavy feeling, a premonition that uncovering the truth might lead to a painful outcome, but not uncovering it would leave an indelible scar in the hearts of Hai Zhao and Yu Mingxi forever.

Qian thought about it and made a call to Hai Zhao.

”Hai Zhao, the Morioka Therapy I gave you needs to be advanced.”

”Advance to when?”

”Two days later.”

”Didn’t you say I needed to paste a photo for a month before treatment?”

The photo pasting was a trick on you, just wanted you to calm down emotionally.

”!!!” Damn, Chen Xiaoqian, when will you stop screwing with me! Hai Zhao roared in his heart, his psychological shadow is colossal.

”Due to some special and irresistible reason, come to Lishi to find me two days later, and I’ll help you resolve your inner confusion.”

Qian seemed to hear music in the background and guessed he might have booked a bar and gave him a friendly reminder.

”If you can’t control your belt in the next two days, you’ll regret it for life. Remember what I said, using self-punishment to retaliate against others is the stupidest act.”

Hai Zhao was startled; did she open a third eye? How did she know he was in a bar now?

Qian hung up the phone. Hai Zhao looked at the drinking escort he found out of spite, but he hadn’t planned to do anything anyway. Qian’s previous words had still affected him; he just didn’t want to drink alone and wanted someone to accompany him.

Regret for a lifetime... When Hai Zhao thought of those four words, he found it hard not to recall that spirited and heroic face.

Is Chen Xiaoqian’s advice really reliable?

Whether true or false, he still waved the escort away, gulping down glass after glass of strong alcohol, only hoping that in his drunken fantasies, Yu Mingxi wouldn’t hurt him anymore.

After dealing with everything, Qian silently closed her eyes to ponder.

What exactly is perfect love?

The answer is that love is never perfect.

Leaving aside the tangled emotions between Hai Zhao and Yu Mingxi.

Take Yu Minglang and Qian, their feelings for each other are strong, with no issues in all aspects, yet on the wedding day, didn’t it still leave Qian alone raising the toast?

Qian doesn’t understand what others’ view of perfection is; she just feels she really wants to hold onto this love.

There’s no perfect love, only suitable people.

Two days later, she will test Hai Zhao to help him confirm his feelings, and three days later, she will attend Yu Mingxi’s concert, where she will search for the untouchable person in Yu Mingxi’s heart.

And now, she needs to find the person suitable for her.

Returning to Lishi in the leader’s car, the leader didn’t come along; he stayed behind in Q City to take care of things, planning to return to the capital after finishing his work. Being able to ride in his car was already enough compensation for the groom’s absence at today’s wedding toast.

Qian wasn’t bothered by these formalities; she wasn’t in the best mood today. Mingxi and Hai Zhao’s matter was more troubling to Qian than Yu Minglang skipping the wedding toast.

Thus, she kept a straight face on the entire journey, without interacting with the driver.

Until the car was close to Lishi, her phone rang.

It was a familiar number.

”Qianbao, I’m sorry, I was wrong! No matter how you want to deal with me, please don’t ignore me!”

The moment the call connected, Minglang’s pleading voice transmitted through.

Qian’s previously stiff face softened a bit upon hearing his voice, but she asked calmly.

”Oh? What did you do wrong? The call of duty was an unavoidable responsibility for you, so why apologize?”

She was too good at concealing her emotions; Minglang couldn’t tell if she was truly angry and sarcastic or just pretending to be mad.

As soon as he finished his work, he eagerly called Qian to apologize, without speaking of anything else, immediately apologizing.

He didn’t expect Qian to forgive him; anyone would find it intolerable to leave a bride alone in front of so many friends and relatives. At this moment, Xiaoqiang’s heart was burning like fire. Give him a knife, he might even seek emotional redemption with Qian.

There was a thousand reluctance when he left, but also a thousand helplessness.

He hadn’t even explained to her a single sentence, leaving such a good wife aside, he couldn’t forgive himself either.

”I shouldn’t have left; I really wanted to stay and finish it all. But the car arrived from above, I had no choice. Qianbao, you must be angry, you can hit or scold me, do whatever, just don’t ignore me! If necessary, let’s make up for it with another ceremony!”

While busy with work, he had no time to think about her reaction. Once he flawlessly completed the tasks given by the higher-ups, his personal feeling surged in, making him feel chills and cold all over. Just thinking about her temper made him feel he might lose this beautiful love.

Ah, Qianbao, how proud of a woman she is, with a strong pride and never willing to suffer any injustice. Whoever dares to provoke her would dare face her wrath; today he committed an unforgivable sin!

”The ceremony is no longer necessary; I’ve already done what needs to be done. Haha.”

The last two laughs shattered Minglang’s heart.

He felt as if darkness engulfed him; it’s over, the wife is truly angry!

He wished to explain further—although it couldn’t be called an explanation, it was just a one-sided begging.

Qian didn’t give him any chance, hanging up the phone directly.

The driver seated in the front row adhered to the principle of not seeing or hearing what’s inappropriate, but still overheard a little. As a fellow man, he thoroughly understood Minglang’s predicament today and was about to say a few words of comfort when he heard Qian cheekily chuckle from the backseat.

”Um... Mr Chen, you’re not really angry, are you?”

The driver had come with the leader, and today’s bride’s impressive performance was well-known, a very remarkable woman.

”What would I be angry about? If I were, why would I request to take wedding photos at your place with the leader?”

”Then just now—”

”I was scaring him, playing a joke on him.”

His reaction—a laugh—was too mischievous, Mr Chen!
