Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 937: Chapter 910: Yeah, I Lied to You—So What

Qian had previously obtained two pinhole cameras at Arcana, intending to install them in the bathroom to observe Xiaoqiang’s state while relieving himself—don’t ask her why she’s so bored and has such a quirky taste, she’s just curious about whether Xiaoqiang, who poses as aloof outside, holds a shampoo bottle to study the instructions, or stares at the ceiling contemplating life while squatting.

Because this guy doesn’t smoke like other men when relieving himself, nor does he bring a book, nor does he play PSP, so Qian got playful and thought of this trick. There must be plenty of this equipment in a laid-off agent’s stash. She had no psychological burden in pranking her own husband a bit.

However, this plan was discovered as soon as it was implemented.

Qian thought she had placed it very secretly, how Yu Minglang discovered it is a mystery.

For this matter, she was severely dealt with by him. That process is better left unsaid...all tears...

Qian withdrew those colored thoughts and spoke to the surprised man.

”Strange, you wonder how I know, right?”

”You betrayed us?!” The man looked angrily at Shi Yu.

”Trading is fake, how is it betrayal?”

Shi Yu picked up the juice, downed it in one gulp, and smashed the empty cup on the ground with a bang.

”Those friendships that seemed to change as soon as they hit society are one of the most important things to me. Moreover, do you think I’m too naive and sweet? You dream of using me to take down Qian?!”

”Shit!” the man swore, grabbing the suitcase and wanting to leave.

Qian curled up one side of her lips and waved her hand.

The door of the café closed.

The man holding the suitcase took a few steps back, watching Liumei and Qiuqiu arm-wrestling with smiles, moving towards him step by step.

”What are you going to do?”

”Teach you a lesson! Bai Jin, is the camera turned off? He’s a lawyer, they care about evidence most. Let’s not leave even a tiny bit of evidence that’s unfavorable to us! Just keep the useful evidence!”

Qiuqiu said loudly.

Bai Jin made an OK sign, all the evidence was recorded, and the part of the video where the lesson was taught can be cut and not broadcast.

As a professional journalist, whether it’s sneak shots or leading the mood, it’s all professional!

Qian held Shi Yu’s hand as if returning to the times when they ran out of the mountain ditch hand-in-hand. Qian led her to the bar; the server had long since left unnoticed, and there were only these few people in the store now.

”How does it feel to have the place to ourselves?” Shi Yu asked Qian.

Qian walked into the bar, wanting to make a cup of coffee for Shi Yu to watch the show. When Shi Yu saw her going to touch the machine, she shivered and pushed her out at once.

Qian pouted, her coffee-making skills are good, why does no one believe her?

Sitting on the bar, watching Qiuqiu and Liumei cornering the man to the wall, her snow-white slender legs dangled back and forth on the high bar.

”The experience of being a domineering female CEO feels good, how does your role as an undercover feel?” Qian asked as she took the coffee Shi Yu handed over.

”It’s okay, actually I feel I still have a few places where my emotional expression is not good enough. Leaving the mini-theater stage, the emotional immersion is a bit lacking. For instance, I should have been more involved in some of my performances to express the misery of a fallen heiress.”

During her school days, Shi Yu was the exclusive playwright for the drama club, best at understanding characters’ inner thoughts.

The two clinked glasses, and Qian patted the spot next to her, inviting Shi Yu to sit on the bar with her. Qian wrapped an arm around her shoulders to watch the show.

”Hey, are you not afraid that Xiaoqiang will get jealous if you hug me?” Shi Yu joked.

”Why would he be angry? All the late-night chats between us were his idea anyway.”

Xiaoqiang, seeing how sad Qian was after Shi Yu first tried to leave last night, persuaded her to find Shi Yu, and then they had a heartfelt talk.

Actually, from the moment Xiaoqiang ”got jealous,” it was the first joint intentional performance by Xiaoqiang and Mei.

Although Qian didn’t know where exactly Shi Yu’s psychological state had gone wrong, her many years of clinical experience told her Shi Yu definitely needed some guidance. After Shi Yu returned the second time, Qian immediately discussed countermeasures with Yu Minglang, allowing Qian to have a solo talk with Shi Yu.

If they had come directly to Shi Yu and said, ”Hey, let’s talk, tell me if there’s anything bothering you” – such an amateurish approach would not only fail to get Shi Yu to say what’s troubling her but would likely backfire.

So it had to be in what seemed the most normal way, subtly easing into a conversational state. Isn’t the constant state in Qian’s house Yu Minglang’s jealousy?

The title of ’the Jealous King,’ Shi Yu came up with it for Yu Minglang. The more Yu Minglang fit into the character persona Shi Yu had in mind, the more easily Shi Yu could accept Qian’s implications.

If Shi Yu’s emotions weren’t unstable, she definitely would have noticed Yu Minglang’s abnormality. Qiao Zhen could be Yu Minglang’s life-and-death brother, and Shi Yu Yu Minglang’s sister-in-law. Shi Yu is Qian’s good friend. Whatever the identity, for Shi Yu’s family to have such a big event and for Xiaoqiang to act petty at this juncture is simply unreasonable.

It was obviously intentional. Given her unstable mood, Shi Yu easily fell into the high-IQ couple’s trap. Starting from the jealousy, Qian had already guided Shi Yu onto her path.

After the two returned to the room, lying together as they did when they were studying, Qian used professional methods to lead Shi Yu to relieve and release her pain. This alone would have been enough, but unexpectedly, Shi Yu immediately brought up someone wanting to buy the CEO Qian’s notes.

Shi Yu had intended to tell CEO Qian; she just had too many jumbled thoughts in her head and didn’t know how to bring it up. Qian’s guidance was timely, allowing Shi Yu to effortlessly do what she initially wanted to do.

Then the sisters devised a plan, inviting the victim to enter, intending to identify the mastermind behind the scenes.

This led to Shi Yu following through on the subsequent plan to transact the notes.

Seeing Shi Yu, who should have been bought off, standing shoulder to shoulder with Qian, threw the errand boy wanting to buy the notes into a tailspin.

He began to severely question his own worldview.

”You women, you’re all deceivers, big deceivers!” The man, cornered with nowhere to retreat, could only roar at Qian and Shi Yu furiously.

He still didn’t understand how things unfolded or why the disillusioned Shi Yu reconciled with Qian.

”Yes, we did deceive you. Who asked you to be so easy to bait with such low intelligence? Even trying to fish requires some skill, not to mention, getting bitten back, serves you right! Some men are just dimwits dimwits dimwits!”

Shi Yu made a face at him.

Seeing no way out, the man, steeling his heart, decided to fight it out. He must run out; he absolutely cannot be caught by these women and a man, otherwise won’t his boss be exposed?

Determined to escape, the man first set his sights on Liumei.
