Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 1070: Chapter 1041: Flies Don’t Bite Eggs Without Cracks (800 Monthly Tickets + Bonus)

The closest and most distant relationship is between husband and wife. No matter how much two people love each other, living under the same roof for decades will inevitably lead to some conflicts and frictions. What’s not scary is the conflicts and frictions; what’s scary is the inability to resolve them.

For example, despite the good relationship between my brother and sister-in-law, they still have cold wars over family trivialities.

Why did such a shrewd businessman like my brother give others opportunities to exploit? It’s simply because he was in a cold war with his wife at the time, with his mind entirely on her, leading to a lack of vigilance externally.

”Ah! I remember now! The reason I was in a cold war with Mingli was that Feng Manman had come to me before and said many things to sow discord between us, so --” The sister-in-law remembered all the previously overlooked details during the cold war.

Everything clicked together completely.

Feng Manman first incited the sister-in-law, making her have many dissatisfactions toward my brother, thinking that he didn’t value her family, the household, or many aspects. Then, as the sister-in-law had a cold war with my brother, he was in a bad mood due to the quarrel, which led to subsequent oversights.

Recalling these previously unheeded details sends chills down one’s spine.

Then Qian added fuel to the fire, ”Sister-in-law, it was around your physiological period, right? If not, it was when you were ill, having headaches or fever and feeling irritable, wasn’t it?”

”Those few days my toothache was so troublesome -- ah, you mean she even took advantage of such a moment?!” The sister-in-law felt her scalp tingle.

Qian nodded.

”Although the opponent may not be as proficient in psychology as I am, she clearly knows how to exploit human weaknesses well. She knows you’re in a bad mood and deliberately says provocative things, then lets you take it out on my brother -- brother, was your work also particularly stressful during those days?”

”Wasn’t it? Those days I was quite troubled by work matters.” My brother nodded.

The more they thought about it, the scarier it seemed. The everyday little matters they went through turned into weaknesses exploited by others!

”Every little event you experience could become prey under someone else’s microscope. I admit being someone with power and money is extremely arduous, as countless people will scrutinize and speculate about you. Of course, if you wish to free yourselves from such troubles, there’s a simple solution—”

Feeling the attention of my brother and sister-in-law, Qian revealed a mischievous smile, winking at her husband, signaling the time for their tacit understanding.

”Hmm... Brother, sister-in-law, you could give us all those deeply entrenched evil money, and without its root of all evil, you wouldn’t be so exhausted. Am I right, sweetheart?”

Qian nodded, ”Yes, my dear, you’ve even started answering for me!”

My brother laughed helplessly.

”At this point, you two still have the thought to mess around? Qian, I understand your point. I will be more cautious in the future to prevent such things from happening again. But you haven’t told me how you plan to handle Feng Manman?”

Xiaoqiang thought that Qian would use the recently learned embedded hypnosis to retaliate against Feng Manman, but unexpectedly, Qian offered a completely different perspective.

”Have you heard the saying, ’flies don’t bite seamless eggs’?’” Qian said confidently.

My brother thought Qian was complimenting him, ”Well, I’m a seamless egg, so she can’t bite me.”

The sister-in-law nudged him, ”You dare say that? Without Qian and Minglang, you’d still be stuck being the ready-made dad she imposed upon you!”

Indeed, my brother dared not boast anymore.

He looked seriously at Qian, waiting for her solution.

”According to my understanding of Feng Manman, despite being extroverted, she is overly anxious. Such a person is prone to phobias, so—”

”So, sweetheart, are you going to be the fly to bite her?” Yu Minglang responded considerately, and was unsurprisingly countered by Qian.

”Get lost, you’re the fly! And a huge green bottle fly at that! If you dare interrupt me again while I’m speaking, I’ll end you!”

Qian elegantly gave Xiaoqiang the finger, signaling him to shut up!

Yu Minglang obediently zipped his lips, but before Qian could continue, Xiaoqiang muttered softly.

”Being any fly, it shouldn’t be a green bottle fly; it’s not auspicious with that green shine. Sweetheart, even if you were a fly, you shouldn’t go green on me—ah!”

Qian threw a sofa cushion at his face, and Xiaoqiang stayed quiet thereafter.

Initially suppressed, my brother and sister-in-law inexplicably felt like laughing due to these two characters’ antics.

”Ahem, let’s continue with the serious topic. Let’s talk about Feng Manman, this woman full of flaws who’s looking to attack others’ weaknesses.”

Upon hearing this, my brother and sister-in-law simultaneously envisioned a smelly egg with Feng Manman’s face painted on it, full of seams, with Qian circling it holding a big needle, ready to stick it in the seams.

Tsk tsk, Xiaoqiang’s brainwashing prowess is formidable.

”So, brother, you get to choose. Do you prefer hepatitis, tuberculosis, or AIDS? Hmm, personally, I favor AIDS the most; it’s the most effective and intimidating.”

”Qian, why are you mentioning so many infectious diseases?”

Qian grinned, ”Because brother needs to fake having one of those diseases to force Feng Manman to have an episode.”

”What kind of episode?”

”If brother declares he accidentally contracted AIDS, based on Feng Manman’s personality, I reckon there’s an 80% chance she’ll develop an AIDS phobia, a condition where psychological fear triggers physical ailments. It’s quite interesting.”

”But what if she’s not among the 80%?” Xiaoqiang, due to his job nature, pursued a 100% success rate.

Qian glanced at him confidently and arrogantly, ”Without me, she has a 20% chance of escaping, but with me here, I’ll ensure she has a 120% chance of experiencing the AIDS phobia; I’ll make her life worse than death—sister-in-law, do I have your authorization to proceed?”

Actually, Qian could proceed without the sister-in-law’s consent, but she preferred showing the ruthless side to the sister-in-law, also the best way to avoid similar incidents from happening again.

The sister-in-law simply replied boldly.

”One million, is it enough to cure her AIDS phobia?”

Qian smiled slightly, ”Take away two zeros; an ordinary psychologist can cure it with that amount—maybe even half-off after that.”

Such a small ailment could be treated by ordinary psychologists.

But the issue is, a tiny spark can start a prairie fire; don’t be fooled by the small disease, the consequences it causes could be quite severe.

The situation had developed to this point, and Yu Minglang was already convinced that his wife had total control over the outcome, requiring no intervention from him; she could handle it entirely on her own.
