Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 295 - : Climbing Up the Relations

Chapter 295 -295: Climbing Up the Relations

Qiu Shuai looked helplessly at Zhao Gongji, “Why is your vision so narrow? Special forces come out to be security guards, what’s the point? Others come out to be leaders. In the future, they might even be in charge of our whole area. You need to be smarter and don’t go provoking him again.”

“Be a leader?” Zhao Gongji was skeptical, “Then why did a fellow villager of mine who was in the army become a security guard after demobilization? Standing guard at the newly developed residential compound for a salary of just 3500?”

“You need education, solid skills, and proficiency in several languages. Can your fellow villager do that? And don’t mess with his wife. I’m telling you, I’ve looked into it, her wife is…”

Qiu Shuai pointed upwards, “The daughter of a very high-ranking official.”

“What?” Zhao Gongji felt his legs go weak.

After all, he had been mingling in society for over a decade, especially in bars where all sorts frequented. He knew the power and influence of the mighty.

It was only because they hadn’t actually done anything to him that he hadn’t ended up in jail.

“Do you think they will come to get revenge on us?” Zhao Gongji asked.

Qiu Shuai took a drag of his cigarette, “No need to worry about that. Their kind has lots of things to do, they won’t bother with a small fry like you. But I’m thinking of using this opportunity to get closer to them, to find some protection or something.”

“You want to suck up to them?” Zhao Gongji asked.

Qiu Shuai said, “I haven’t figured out how to suck up yet. I’m just warning you, don’t go messing with them.”

“Okay,” Zhao Gongji, having been given instructions, obediently complied.

…

Xi Wanfen was on a mid-to-small night shift today, starting at 2 p.m. and ending at 11 p.m.

As soon as she stepped out of the inpatient department elevator, she saw a familiar figure playing with his phone on a bench in the lobby.

Her heart couldn’t help but thump wildly.

“Zhan Bai,” Xi Wanfen walked over.

When Liang Zhanbai saw her, he quickly put his game on hold and then said, “You’re finally here.”

“Did you… come to pick me up?”

“Yes,” he smiled, “It’s late. I was worried about you going back alone.”

Xi Wanfen’s face turned red, and then she laughed, “I have my own car.”

“Then you drive yours, I’ll drive mine, and follow behind you.”

Still sending her off like this?

“Then… let’s go together,” Xi Wanfen said with a laugh.

She drove her little Wuling, he drove his SUV. Small and large, she could see from the rearview mirror that he was truly following her all the way.

With fewer cars and pedestrians at night, driving on the road like this felt especially romantic, as if both of their cars were in love.

Near her home, there was a stall selling beef offal that had many people eating late-night snacks. Xi Wanfen stopped the car and called Liang Zhanbai, “Want to grab a late-night snack? My treat.”

“Sure,” Liang Zhanbai agreed.

They each ordered a serving of beef offal.

The weather was still dry and cold since New Year’s had not passed, but with the hustle around the beef offal and their addition of hot and sour sauce, they began to sweat after eating a while.

“I never found this beef offal that tasty before, but why does it taste so good today?” Xi Wanfen laughed.

Liang Zhanbai also laughed, “Is it because you’re eating it with me that it tastes so good?”

“Possibly.”

The two suddenly laughed out loud.

…

When Xi Wanfen got home, it was already midnight.

Usually, at this time, her parents would be asleep, but tonight they were still sitting in the living room.

Xi Wanfen couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, Mom, you weren’t waiting for me, were you?”

Xi Huarong smiled and pointed to the sofa, “Xiao Fen, come and sit for a while. Are you hungry? Want something to eat?”

Xiao Fen burped, “Not hungry, I just had late-night snacks with a coworker.”

Xi Wanfen looked at them, “Dad, Mom, is there something on your mind?”

Li Shirui looked at her and asked, “Do you know why you weren’t allowed to attend Xi Wanlin’s wedding today?”

Xi Wanfen paused, then replied, “Is it because… Sister Linlin did something wrong?”

It had to be said that despite her young age, Xi Wanfen was quite perceptive.

If Sister Linlin hadn’t done something wrong, why else would her parents prevent her from attending the wedding?

She asked again, “Mom, did you two go?”

Li Shirui shook her head, then played an audio clip for Xi Wanfen, “Xiao Fen, listen to this recording.”

Xi Wanfen listened attentively.

After listening, she couldn’t help but be indignant, “Sister Linlin sent someone to deal with Sister Su? How could she do such a thing?”

Li Shirui said, “That’s why we didn’t give her face at her wedding.”

“Sister Su doesn’t fight or snatch anything; Sister Linlin went too far!”

Li Shirui sighed, “And this Lu Lei, his relationship with Linlin is extraordinary. Linlin acting this way will eventually lead to her own ruin.”

Xi Wanfen said, “Then let her eat her own bitter fruits!”

That night, Li Shirui and Xi Huarong sat on the couch for a long time, discussing Xi Wanlin’s affairs.

When it came to the consequences, the two decisively decided to draw a clear line with Xi Wanlin.

They had given her a chance once; it wasn’t possible to do so over and over.

…

Tonight was Xi Wanlin’s wedding night.

After all the guests had left and the teasing of the bridal chamber had dispersed, she finally relaxed.

A feeling of weary sadness came over her all of a sudden.

Today, she had been abandoned by everyone.

Her foster parents gave up on her, and Lu Lei betrayed her.

All because of Su Meixi!

She wanted to cry but couldn’t shed tears.

Li Hengze was already drunk, lying on the bed snoring heavily.

She said slowly, “All I have now is you. In the future, I will live a good life with you.”

The moment she finished speaking, Lu Lei’s phone call came through.

She walked to the living room and answered his call.

“Linlin, I’m sorry. There was a slight discrepancy with the company’s accounts, I’ve been busy dealing with the tax office these past few days, so I didn’t call you.”

“Why are you calling me now?” Xi Wanlin asked.

“I… you became someone else’s bride, and it’s painful for me,” Lu Lei said.

“Didn’t you betray me? Do you know your conversation with Gu Wei was recorded, and now my parents have given up on me?”

“It was Gu Wei who approached me with my company’s accounts and threatened me. That’s why I let it slip, Linlin, I’m sorry, but I truly love you.”

“Lu Lei, let’s not contact each other anymore,” Xi Wanlin said firmly.

“No, Linlin, I love you…”

Xi Wanlin blocked Lu Lei and deleted all his contact information.

Lu Lei tried to call back, but it was unreachable.

He slumped to the floor, looking dejected.

But then he thought, maybe… there was still a chance.

If she got pregnant.

…

Today, in the outpatient department, Su Meixi encountered another patient who had specifically made an appointment with her.

The patient had a simple and honest appearance, especially that round and chubby face, which was surprisingly festive and difficult to dislike.

She glanced at the person’s name: Qiu Shuai!

“Where does it hurt?” Su Meixi asked.
