Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 958: Chapter 931: Absolutely Unforgettable for a Lifetime

Qian kicked Dalong under the table, causing him to almost choke on a rib. Seeing the hinting expression from his sister, he swallowed the meat in his mouth and looked at their mother timidly, hesitating to speak.

Qian kicked him again and glared at him. If the little rascal didn’t say anything now, he wouldn’t have a chance later!

”Mom, about me wanting to go to my brother-in-law’s place for training, what do you think? If you really oppose it, then I’ll go to school.”

There just happened to be braised ribs with green beans on the table. Qian calmly picked up some beans with chopsticks and placed them on Mom’s plate, prompting an almost reflexive response from her.

”If you want to go, then go! But there’s one condition, you have to make sure your brother-in-law picks a place where you can really be trained. You shouldn’t find some leisure job that’s like an old man’s retirement.”

Mr. Liao raised his eyebrows, looked at Qian, then at Mom. What magic does Qian possess?

No one knew better than him how much his wife valued their son’s education. Yet Qian pulled her into the room for just a few minutes. How did she manage to change her mind?

Yu Minglang wasn’t surprised at all. That’s just his wife, a powerful woman who’s been brainwashing people for many years.

”Mom, you...” Even Dalong felt uneasy. He had been prepared for a long battle with mom.

Dalong naïvely believed that he could just hang around and come out with a steady job. Boys all have a bit of a hero dream, and he was no exception. He wanted to be above others, a leader who sat in an office, drank tea, and earned a high salary.

”Don’t say anything more. Since your sister has spoken for you, you have to perform well and not let her down.” Mom really trusted Qian. The persuasive talk Qian gave her had a huge impact.

Xiaoqiang raised his glass, smiling at the now-dazed Mr. Liao, ”Uncle Liao, let’s have a drink.”

”You really should bring Qian’er back often.” Mr. Liao concluded, seeing that the one who had the biggest say in this family was indeed Qian’er.

Mom was outgoing and straightforward, always needing to vent, while Dalong was a rebellious kid who would do whatever it took to achieve his goals.

Everyone thought Mom would fight with her son for days, but Qian casually intervened and solved it easily. Mr. Liao was utterly impressed by Qian.

Moreover, Qian had a vision, offering solutions that really addressed the practical issues.

”Brother-in-law! I toast you too! My future as your little brother-in-law is entirely in your hands!” Dalong thought he was in heaven, unaware he had fallen into a trap set by his sister and brother-in-law.

”Don’t worry, with a brother-in-law like me, your future will be ’unforgettable for life.’ Whenever you think about it, you’ll feel a mix of emotions and appreciate coming into this world, as you’ll soon be doing the most meaningful thing.” Xiaoqiang clinked glasses with Dalong, words resonating deeply with hidden meanings.

Naive Chen Zilong didn’t suspect anything, happily clinking glasses with his brother-in-law, feeling he had moved a step closer to adulthood.

After the meal, Mom pushed Qian who wanted to help wash dishes away, unwilling to let her work since her daughter seldom came home. Yu Minglang was blinking rapidly, and Qian finally gave in to his suggestion.

”Mom, I’m going back tonight with Minglang to our place to see if there’s anything that needs renovating.”

Mom initially wanted Qian and Yu Minglang to stay at home, but hearing Qian’s plan, she was a bit displeased.

”Can’t you look at the house during the day tomorrow? It’d be nice to stay here tonight; the quilts are all aired for you.”

”Some renovations can only be inspected at night. Whether things are level can’t be seen during the day. I’ll come back tomorrow night.” Qian said, eyes wide, telling a blatant lie.

”Alright, come back tomorrow, but Minglang can’t. You shouldn’t see each other the day before the wedding.” Mom reminded. The day after tomorrow was Qian’s wedding, and according to tradition, they shouldn’t stay together the night before; daytime was still acceptable.

Qian agreed and pushed Xiaoqiang out the door. Once outside, he immediately took her hand.

”Is your brain only thinking about pointless things instead of anything serious?” Qian said, annoyed.

”How is this useless? It’s really important!”

Fuelled by alcohol, someone dared to say anything. Qian was stunned by his shamelessness, chasing him to beat him up. Xiaoqiang ran away, with both of them playfully chasing out of the corridor. Running straight past someone standing at the entrance carrying items, Qian initially wanted to run right by, but finding him familiar, she stopped.

The person was a middle-aged, balding man with a slightly bulging belly, looking weary. He held a gift box and other items.

Qian originally wanted to run right by him, but after two steps, she felt something wasn’t right, paused, and turned to look.

Yu Minglang also found it odd, returning to stand beside Qian. The middle-aged man noticed Qian too, his eyes lighting up.

”Mr Chen!”

Qian felt the man was familiar, still searching where she had seen him...

”Qiuqiu’s dad!” Xiaoqiang, professionally trained in recognizing faces, had an impression just from one meeting.

Hearing this, Qian remembered. Yes, it’s him!
