Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 1124: Chapter 1096: Trick or Treat

Zheng Xu avoided Qian’s playful gaze and directly asked.

"Just tell me, how can I deal with this yellow-haired girl and stop her from messing with me like this?"

"The tough approach won’t work." These words were originally quite ordinary, but Zheng Xu felt something was off. He suspected Qian was being suggestive, but had no evidence.

"So you have to use a softer approach," Qian was holding back so hard she almost hurt herself internally.

Zheng Xu felt the urge to send her away again.

"Speak plainly!"

"You could use your charm, let me give you a tip; psychologically speaking, the more powerful a person is, the more they lack love in their heart. Akka was an orphan since childhood, and her growing environment was quite harsh. If you show her a little vulnerability, she certainly won’t target you anymore."

Zheng Xu felt flabbergasted by Qian, "Me, a respectable man, you want me to show weakness to that young yellow-haired girl?"

"You could act cute too, I guarantee she won’t bother you anymore. The more you toughen up against her, the more she retaliates. Really."

"Forget it, relying on you, this quack, I’d rather figure it out myself." To act cute was worse than a swift death.

Qian was frustrated, "Good advice can’t convince a stubborn ghost, if you don’t listen, just wait for her to continue messing with you."

After leaving Zheng Xu, Qian didn’t rush to the Li family, but went home.

She made a pot of herbal tea in the microwave, lit calming incense, and meditated to music.

This case is different from previous ones; although the illness doesn’t involve much, the matters it touches upon are quite broad. Facing such situations requires calm before action.

After meditation, while she was still clear-headed, Qian started writing a treatment plan. Based on her experience with Mr. Li from yesterday, the plan came together almost effortlessly.

She was highly focused while working, but once finished, she noticed something was odd.

When did that ball of shredded fabric appear on the floor? And the pattern on this shredded fabric, isn’t it just like her nbe handmade wool shawl?!

That was her favorite shawl!

The most distinctive feature of the exotic handmade shawl is its unique pattern, with no other exactly like it in the world. Of all her shawls, this was her proudest, and now, her beloved item was scattered in pieces everywhere.

All the careful groundwork she had laid was now undone.

Qian felt her blood starting to flow backward, a surge of anger rose instantly, her big beautiful eyes turned sharp as she began searching frantically for the culprit.

Yu Minglang was coming home from work and saw his wife holding a kitchen knife, chasing the beauty around, startling Xiaoqiang so much he didn’t even bother changing his shoes and directly rushed over to snatch the weapon from his wife’s hand.

"Honey, what are you doing?!"

"Let go of me! I want to kill this ruffian to avenge my pure handmade wool shawl!!"

Seeing her backer returned, the beauty tucked her tail and ran behind Yu Minglang, stretching out her limbs, burying her head in her paws, looking all aggrieved.

Seeing the dog’s sly demeanor made Qian’s anger flare up even more.

"Yu Minglang, keep indulging it, look what kind of mess this brat has made! Evidence! That is evidence!" Her poor scarf!

Yu Minglang also saw the pile of fragments on the ground, this scarf seemed to be one his wife really liked, she often wore it.

No wonder she was so furious.

Yu Minglang quickly glared, sternly scolding the beauty behind him, "You little rascal! That’s your mom’s favorite thing, how could you ruin it? Go! Squat in the corner and reflect! No spare rib for you tonight!"

"Woof" this cry was so melodious and pitiful, expressing the misery of a dog, life ain’t easy for dogs.

"Hurry up and go!" Yu Minglang worried that if he didn’t separate his wife and the beauty, his wife might really take the knife and finish off the beauty in a fit of anger.

"Yu Minglang! You brat, you’re taking sides!" Qian obviously saw through Xiaoqiang’s delaying tactic, he was afraid she’d beat up the fake sweet dog so he sent it away!

"Honey, I didn’t! Didn’t you see I was seriously scolding her?"

"Scolding won’t work, I think we should just have dog meat hotpot tonight to replenish my damaged brain cells, simply can’t go on like this!"

Hearing Qian talk about dog meat hotpot, the beauty’s body shook, making whimpering noises.

Seeing this, Yu Minglang quickly hugged Qian, "I do need to replenish my wife, honey, there’s a task for you!"

"A task for me?" Qian paused her search for trouble.

"Yes, you must complete the case you took yesterday."

"That thing shouldn’t be under your jurisdiction, right? When did you start meddling in everything?" Qian immediately thought of that thing Zheng Xu mentioned that was in Mr. Li’s possession.

"Seems you already know, did Zheng Xu tell you?"

"Mm."

"This makes it easier to explain, you’re right, even if handed over that thing is not under our control, but in my territory I have the responsibility to protect. They know the Li family contacted you, they asked me to pass on the message that you must complete Mr. Li’s treatment."

Qian had actually already agreed to Zheng Xu, and received considerable benefits from Mrs. Li, and even blackened Zheng Xu’s cloisonné box with Hetian jade. But now hearing that Xiaoqiang said that side was aware, she immediately rolled her eyes, from a fierce wife chasing a dog, she suddenly turned into Lin, softly lying on the sofa, posing like Xi Shi clutching her heart.

"I can’t do it anymore, my body is getting worse and worse, I fear I’m unfit for this heavy responsibility, my whole head aches."

Yu Minglang, hearing Qian’s frequent claims of total head ache, couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of his mouth.

"Honey, what are you playing at here?"

"Your promise is useless, I have difficulties! Call him, tell him I’m unwell with headache, can’t take appointments."

Qian thought for a moment, "Forget it, I’ll tell him myself."

Finished speaking, she took out her phone and sent a text, Yu Minglang was surprised, "He gave you his phone number?!"

He didn’t even have the private number of that person!

"He left it at the wedding banquet last time, said to contact him if anything happens, now I really do have a matter."

Qian was sending as she spoke, two minutes after sending, the phone rang.

Yu Minglang, by her side, saw Qian displaying her star acting skills once again.

"Yes, I’m feeling completely unwell, I fear I might let down the organization’s trust, is the illness treatable? Well, of course, if I were feeling well, it would just be a matter of days, do you wish for a quick recovery or prefer me to remain ill?"

Yu Minglang held his forehead, his wife was obviously extorting, she just didn’t say ’trick or treat’ outright.

This was too outrageous! She dared to blackmail anyone!
