Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 1121: Chapter 1093: Poor Choice of Friends Encountering Qian

Qian didn’t refuse, accepted the check, exchanged a few polite words, and left as someone came to see Mrs. Li. She agreed to come back in the evening.

Balan was waiting outside, intending to take Qian back. However, as she thought about his chatter in the car, she found an excuse about visiting a friend to turn him down. Instead of going home, she took a cab directly to Zheng Xu’s house in Lishi.

Initially, she should have gone to her elder brother, but he seemed to be busy doing business out of town recently, probably too occupied to spare time. Coincidentally, Zheng Xu had called her this morning, saying he was in Lishi and asking when she could meet. This matter was best suited for Zheng Xu.

At Zheng Xu’s place, Qian went upstairs. When Zheng Xu opened the door, she was taken aback upon seeing him.

"What are you staring at?! Haven’t seen a handsome guy before?!" Zheng Xu got irritated by her gaze.

Qian clicked her tongue twice, her gaze fixed on Zheng Xu’s evenly distributed dark circles, "I’ve never seen such a disheveled handsome guy. Zheng Xu, what exactly happened to you these days? Did you sleep with someone else’s woman, or did you do something bad and got beaten up like this?"

Not only were his eyes bruised, but the spots revealed by his bathrobe were also full of blood marks, indicating he was both beaten and scratched!

"Isn’t it because of meddling in your Yu Family’s trouble, all of it is aftereffect..." Zheng Xu rubbed his eye sockets, feeling anger rise at the sight of Qian, his temper flaring up.

"Our Yu Family? The most violent man in our Yu Family is still at work, you know. Besides, those scratches on your neck are clearly made by a woman. Don’t wrong my family members."

"Don’t pretend to be innocent! Isn’t it that blond near you? That woman is too vicious! She actually set a trap at my house!"

Thinking about what happened this morning made Zheng Xu furious, wanting to catch the blond and pluck her yellow hair strand by strand!

Yesterday the two of them happened to meet in a hot spring in Q City. Zheng Xu, at the time, was holding a voluptuous young lady, planning to enjoy a comfortable hot spring experience. Just as they got into the water and hadn’t even gotten intimate, the blond climbed over from the private hot spring area fence, pounced on him, and jumped into the water, scratching and clawing at him like a madwoman, leaving his new girlfriend stunned.

Not only did Arcana scratch Zheng Xu, but also concocted a whole plot, calling him a heartless jerk who abandons randomly, that not only he refused to pay after sleeping together but also allegedly infected her with an indescribable disease, prattling on about all sorts of things.

As a result, Zheng Xu’s new girlfriend’s face turned, scared to flit out of the pool as if avoiding a plague, so swiftly that it’s likely she directly headed for the hospital for a check-up after leaving Zheng Xu. After all, Arcana’s vivid narration seemed so real, enough to scare anyone listening.

After messing up Zheng Xu’s great time, the blond ran away, and Zheng Xu couldn’t catch her. Stifled with anger, when he came to Lishi to handle some business, he called Qian in the morning, planning to rest at his place here. As soon as he entered, two sandbags came flying, hitting Zheng Xu right in the eyes, with impeccable accuracy unknown.

Zheng Xu was fuming, and the sandbags even had a note stuck on them:

Toothpick Man, you deserve it!

"I must catch that blond, tie her up, and throw her in a laborers’ den, let people have their way, then pour cement and throw her into the sea! How did she enter my home? She dared to trespass privately!" Zheng Xu spoke as if he was puffing smoke, gritting his teeth when he noticed Qian shaking at the table.

Zheng Xu cleared his throat, "I’m just saying, don’t be scared, I wouldn’t really do anything, after all, she’s a woman and your friend."

He thought Qian was scared by his description.

Instead, when Qian looked up, her eyes were filled with tears, which softened Zheng Xu’s heart, thinking this married woman Chen Xiaoqian had some conscience, sympathizing with a friend. Just when he was about to offer comfort, he heard Qian gasping between laughter.

"Oh dear, I can’t, I’m laughing to tears, haha, my stomach is hurting, give me a moment, I’ll talk to you after I finish laughing, hahaha!"

Xu’s face turned green.

Poor choice of friends.

The words floated through Zheng Xu’s mind as he watched Qian laugh like a blooming flower.

"Chen Xiaoqian, keep laughing, better not laugh till you choke." Zheng Xu said sourly.

Why did he become friends with such a woman?

Qian wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, clutching her twitching stomach from laughter, "Oh my, your guys’ story is just too funny, it’s hilarious, Arcana is just too amusing."

Zheng Xu got angry.

"Are you my friend or hers? I got messed up so badly by that blond, and you’re still laughing!"

Qian patted her face, forcing herself not to continue laughing, but one look at Zheng Xu’s bruised eyes, and she couldn’t hold it in anymore.

She quickly took out her phone, looking for the camera function. Missing the chance to memorialize Xu’s current look would be a pity.

"Chen Xiaoqian, if you dare take a picture, I’ll destroy both phone and person. Try me."

Qian had no choice but to put her phone back, saying regretfully.

"It’s too bad I can’t send this look of yours to our Xiaoqiang, theoretically, good stuff should be shared with the husband, hah!"

Zheng Xu’s temples throbbed; how did he end up liking such an immoral woman back then?

"Did you come here just to annoy and disgust me? Knowing how well I understand you, if you got nothing important, you wouldn’t remember the direction my door opens. Speak, what do you want from me this time?"

"You’re spot on. I came with something to ask you to handle, and laugh at your panda eyes in passing."

"Go find your Erha for that, I’m deciding to not meddle in your affairs anymore."

Mocking Brother Xu has severe consequences; Brother Xu pouted.

"Let’s not joke around, let’s be serious, Zheng Xu have you heard of Lixin Biotechnology?" Qian brought the topic to the main point.

"The top domestic biopharmaceutical group, currently holding a cutting-edge biological laboratory, monopolizing many patent projects. Their laboratory carries significant weight not only in China but also across Asia. They’re a priority-supported enterprise. Why, have you gotten involved with them?" Zheng Xu rattled off, well-informed.

Qian took a light sip of her coffee, then nodded.

"I have a bit of a connection, can you help me investigate their connections?"

"Give me a direction, like?"

"For example, the relationship between the Li couple and the old man, how the relationship between the Li couple is, whether there are any property disputes, or any disputes in the inheritance rights within the Li family."

From today’s matter, Qian keenly sensed something.
