Chapter 22 Wait another 3 years
Chapter 22 Wait another 3 years
“Your brother is different. He hasn’t married the golden phoenix that will turn your He family’s fortunes around yet. He’s destined to be a high-ranking official. You say you don’t care, so why would I?”
The reason she didn't kick them out immediately after serving them food was because...
Because she didn't want people to think she was unfilial or materialistic.
She needs to give herself some time to think about what will become of these people.
They absolutely cannot stay here today.
Each of them is a ticking time bomb.
He Yongli, standing before him, was the one who could help him solve his problems.
Of course, this problem was also brought about by her.
It must have been that bastard He Yongsheng who instigated it; He Yongsheng doesn't want her to have an easy time.
He was also afraid that she would marry Chu Junbai.
According to Chu Zhihui, although Chu Junbai is the captain of the special forces, which sounds like a low position, his military rank is colonel.
He Yongsheng is a first-class sergeant.
The two are simply incomparable.
So he must be afraid she will retaliate.
If that's the case, then he guessed right!
This is just the beginning.
Seeing He Yongli's gritted teeth and resentful expression, she could see that He Yongli disliked her but dared not touch her.
Mu Xiaowan wrapped her red down jacket tighter around herself and said casually, "Go downstairs, your brother is here to pick you up!"
"My brother? Who sent him?"
What did that bitch do to become so powerful?
“I asked him to pick you up. He’s afraid of ruining his future. If you’re not afraid, do whatever you want. I have nothing to lose.”
Mu Xiaowan knew that He Yongli had no choice but to obey.
"In this family, my mom listens to my brother, and my brother listens to you, so you can decide what to say when you go downstairs. Just take them away."
"As for how to talk to the Chu family, you'd better use your eloquence and not cause me any trouble."
Mu Xiaowan stopped arguing with her and started walking downstairs. She hadn't gone far when she heard footsteps following behind her.
As soon as Mu Xiaowan went downstairs, she saw He Yongsheng coming out of their bedroom, looking flustered.
"He Yongsheng, what are you doing in that room?"
After a moment of evasiveness, He Yongsheng said confidently, "I'm looking for my sister!"
"sister!"
He Yongli quickly walked towards He Yongsheng.
"Xiao Sheng, what brings you here?"
Seeing He Yongli's unpleasant expression, He Yongsheng knew that his sister had suffered a loss in front of Mu Xiaowan.
Why is this bitch so difficult to deal with now?
It seems that inviting his sister won't work either.
"What are you doing in my bedroom looking for your sister? Didn't you see the bright red color inside?"
"Or are you here to steal information? Our bridal chamber is Chu Junbai's bedroom. Normally, family members don't just go in and out of his room. Don't you know what his job is?"
He Yongsheng looked at Mu Xiaowan with disgust.
Just now, Mu Xiaowan called and threatened him, saying that if he didn't come to pick up these people, she would go directly to Ge Qingran's father and higher-ups. She would also have the leaders investigate the guesthouse incident.
The military cares most about the opinions of the people. His case cannot withstand investigation, otherwise he would not have come.
"Mu Xiaowan, you can't make false accusations."
Mu Xiaowan's face was as cold as ice. "You'd better not have done anything. If anything is missing from the house, I'll settle the score with you."
Mu Xiaowan looked behind him and said, "If you come into our room, Captain Chu will see you. You won't be able to get away with it later."
He Yongsheng felt a chill run down his spine.
He quickly turned around and saw Chu Junbai standing at the top of the stairs, his dark eyes staring at him, his sharp gaze like a knife, as if he wanted to cut him apart every second.
He Yongsheng swallowed.
When did Chu Junbai start standing there?
Fortunately, he went in and came out quickly.
He immediately stood up straight and saluted.
Today, Chu Junbai was also wearing a military uniform. He had tied a big red flower on his chest earlier, but he found it in the way and tore it off.
Chu Junbai was half a head taller than He Yongsheng, and his back was straight as if measured with a ruler. He exuded righteousness, and his upright appearance was incomparable to that of the scumbag He Yongsheng.
"You are He Yongsheng?" Chu Junbai looked at He Yongsheng thoughtfully.
To He Yongsheng, his gaze was no different from that of a slow slicing execution.
He felt the hairs on his body stand on end.
"Yes! I... I just found out my sister and the others came to the city. I haven't seen them in so long, and I wanted to take them to my place." Damn it, what a lucky woman! How did she run into Chu Junbai? What a miscalculation!
In order to get Ge Qingran as soon as possible, He Yongsheng rented a house in the city.
When he's not busy, he'll go back to his rented apartment to cook for Ge Qingran, try to please her, and do some things he enjoys.
Today, all we can do is take these people to his rented apartment.
He was worried that if he brought her to the military base, Liu Guilan would nag and cause trouble. Only a rented room was suitable.
Mu Xiaowan said, "My sister-in-law also wants to go and see, and I can't persuade her to stay, so let them go. It's rare for them to come to the city. I don't have time these two days either, so I feel more at ease having someone show them around."
Seeing her younger brother bowing and scraping in fear at the sight of Mu Xiaowan, her new husband, He Yongli remembered Mu Xiaowan's earlier threat and dared not cause any more trouble. She quickly replied, "Yes!"
"In that case, we won't keep you any longer."
Chu Junbai said a few polite words and went to his room.
Mu Xiaowan gestured for He Yongli to go find his mother.
She went back to her room.
"what 's wrong?"
The room, which was neat and tidy before, is now a mess.
Chu Junbai immediately showed a displeased expression.
"Is it He Yongsheng?"
Actually, he didn't see He Yongsheng come out of the room. He only saw him standing at their door.
“My sister-in-law and I went to the rooftop to talk, and when we came down, we saw him leaving our room. I didn’t see whether he did it or not.”
Mu Xiaowan quickly walked towards the wardrobe.
The clothes where she kept her money were rummaged through.
"My dowry money is missing. Have you checked if you've lost anything? Even my money isn't as important as your things."
Upon hearing this, Chu Junbai quickly checked his belongings.
"Nothing is missing!"
"It seems someone is specifically after my dowry."
"Could it be that your family took it?" Chu Junbai didn't want to make assumptions.
Unfortunately, only her family members were on the second floor.
"I'll go ask about it. Let's not make this public for now. It's not good if our guests find out about our family scandals."
Chu Junbai's face turned ashen; marriage might be the worst possible solution to the problem.
……
Just wait another three years.
……
As soon as Mu Xiaowan entered the guest room, Liu Guilan screamed and lunged at her, trying to grab her hair and hit her.
Mu Xiaowan easily dodged it.
Unable to hit Mu Xiaowan, Liu Guilan angrily cursed, "You brat, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to kick us out?"
Liu Guilan used to beat and kick her all the time, and almost ripped all her hair out.
From now on, Liu Guilan will not be allowed to touch a hair on her head.
Today is less an auspicious day for her and more an unlucky day, with one "big surprise" after another.
Fortunately, the marriage was fake; otherwise, it would be strange if things went well for them.
