Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 143 - : A Pleasant Cooperation

Chapter 143: Chapter 143: A Pleasant Cooperation

Translator: 549690339

Yu Zhaozhao really hated herself for stirring up trouble and causing Wang Xiaohong to freak out.

If this continues, it’ll never end. The mother-in-law usually avoids Wang Xiaohong’s sensitive topics, especially when the youngest’s girlfriend is here. It would make everyone feel awkward.

Xiao Qian felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. Then, she saw a woman with average looks, thin eyelids, thin lips, and slightly triangular eyes. There were no tears, but she pretended to wipe them away. Xiao Qian also noticed a child sitting on the sofa. In an instant, she remembered – it was her!

“Xiaohong, I’ll have Aunt get it for you.” Mother Yu, with the idea of warding off misfortune by losing money, quickly tried to send her away.

It would’ve been fine on any other day, but today was the first time Ming Lang brought a girlfriend home. The Yu family couldn’t afford to lose face.

Unexpectedly, it was Ming Lang’s second sister-in-law! Xiao Qian’s heart was struck like a bolt of lightning, leaving her mind completely blank.

She remembered how impressive Second Brother was when he came to school, exuding an aura of masculinity that attracted many young girls who still talked about him to this day.

But how could Second Brother marry such a wife? These looks, this demeanor, and this strange sickness radiating from her… None of it seemed like Second Brother’s style.

Xiao Qian was so shocked that she forgot to greet everyone. Ming Lang and Big Brother Yu heard the noise and came out of the study room.

Ming Lang saw Xiao Qian standing there, staring at Second Sister-in-law without moving. He thought she was frightened by the shrew and walked over, putting his arm around her waist.

“What’s wrong?”

“No, nothing.” Xiao Qian’s mind was still being struck by lightning, and the more she thought about it, the scarier it became.

If this woman really had that certain illness she suspected, and Second Brother was her spouse, then…

Suddenly, it seemed terrifying, she couldn’t put Second Brother’s image together with that kind of illness.

“Is this the youngest’s girlfriend?” Second Sister-in-law noticed Xiao Qian and stopped wiping away tears, staring straight at Xiao Qian.

She didn’t have any impression of Xiao Qian, just that she looked somewhat familiar but couldn’t recall from where.

“Hello…” Xiao Qian finally found her voice to say hello.

“Youngest, you’re in the wrong here. You bring your girlfriend home without telling Second Sister-in-law. Let me have a look too. It’s not like I can eat your girlfriend, hehe.”

Wang Xiaohong thought she was joking, but no one could laugh.

Her mere words could turn the atmosphere awkward, yet she herself was unaware.

Mother Yu felt disgusted, like she’d eaten several flies. She had already made the call, but Wang Xiaohong didn’t want to come over. The youngest’s girlfriend was brought over at the last moment, so Wang Xiaohong’s words made it seem as if the youngest had acted dishonestly.

Ming Lang didn’t care about Wang Xiaohong. The family members only showed her some respect for Second Brother’s sake. He’d been dominant since childhood, and he wouldn’t tolerate anyone causing trouble for him. Plus, Ming Lang had long wanted to help Second Brother vent his anger; now was his chance!

“We all know Second Sister-in-law is a busy person. Even phone calls can’t get her here. Today her maternal uncles are visiting, tomorrow her maternal brothers are coming. If we don’t visit you, it’s our fault for not being polite – hey, Xiao Qian, what’s that on your hand?”

Mother Yu kept trying to give Ming Lang a hint, but Ming Lang pretended not to see. The more he indulged Wang Xiaohong, the more she’d take advantage.

“This is a gift from Auntie.” Xiao Qian replied.

“And what about around your neck?” Ming Lang had sharp eyes.

“It’s from Eldest Sister-in-law…” Xiao Qian had an idea what he was trying to do.

“Both Mom and Eldest Sister-in-law gave you something, right? Second Sister-in-law hates being looked down upon, doesn’t she?”

Xiao Qian nodded. “Yes, Second Sister-in-law is an open and honest person. There’s no problem.”

There’s no problem, it’d be strange if there wasn’t.

Ming Lang and Xiao Qian were playing off each other, making Wang Xiaohong’s expression a bit displeased. She seemed to understand something.

“Xiao Qian and I are both sensible people. Whatever Second Sister-in-law gives us, we won’t choose. More or less, it’s just a gesture.”

Ming Lang put Wang Xiaohong in a difficult position. If she said she wouldn’t give anything, she’d lose face. If she did give something, she’d be really reluctant.”You guys didn’t tell me in advance, and I’m not prepared at all. How about another day? I’ll make it up to you then.” Wang Xiaohong tried every means to dodge.

Xiao Qian quickly analyzed the situation: Father Yu didn’t want to see Wang Xiaohong, Ming Lang confronted Second Sister-in-law, Mother Yu could have stopped him but she didn’t, and Eldest Sister-in-law —

Hey, where did Eldest Sister-in-law and Eldest Brother go?

Eldest Sister-in-law grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, sat on the sofa with Eldest Brother enjoying the show while feeding the peeled seeds to the kids on the sofa.

Xiao Qian isn’t impulsive; she must give the Yu Family a perfect first impression. She didn’t speak up just now because she was observing everyone’s reactions. Since Ming Lang spoke up, she needed to follow his pace.

Someone offered themselves as a stepping stone to earn the Yu Family’s favor, so she couldn’t miss the chance!

Instead of being a passive daughter-in-law, she should show off her fighting spirit to them. It takes great courage and attentiveness to use this strategy- not everyone dares to try.

“Second Sister-in-law, it was presumptuous of me to come here without telling you first.” Xiao Qian spoke up.

Mother Yu’s brows furrowed slightly, thinking that Xiao Qian was disgusted by Wang Xiaohong. Just as she was about to smooth things over, Ming Lang pushed her to sit with Eldest Sister-in-law and grabbed some seeds for her.

“Yes, that’s right.” Second Sister-in-law nodded hurriedly.

Xiao Qian changed the subject, “Eldest Sister-in-law didn’t know I was coming either. The necklace was taken off her neck. Actually, I feel quite embarrassed. Second Sister-in-law, you mustn’t do the same because I won’t be able to handle it.”

While talking, she glances at the gold earrings on Second Sister-in-law’s ears.

Wang Xiaohong touches her own gold earrings, her face changing with fright.

“This one is… not suitable for you…” These earrings arc heavy and Wang Xiaohong loves them so much that she doesn’t want to switch to smaller ones even if it weighs her earlobes down.

Mother Yu couldn’t tell if Xiao Qian was being genuinely naive or intentionally setting a trap for Wang Xiaohong to step on. Wang Xiaohong’s triangular eyes turned into semi-circles as everyone felt relieved and relaxed.

“It’s not suitable. I don’t have ear piercings.” Xiao Qian touches her ears, and Second Sister-in-law nods in agreement.

“It’s precisely because I don’t have ear piercings that my mom said she’d melt her earrings down to make a necklace. But I think as children, we shouldn’t always think about our parents’ possessions. The elder’s things are theirs, and young people must strive on their own. So, Second Sister-in-law, please don’t force yourself. I would feel really bad.” This could also be seen as a reference to the recent matter with the cordyceps.

“Chen Xiaoqian! How can you be so thoughtless? How can you compare desiring your parents’ possessions to a gift? You’re too inconsiderate! Second Sister-in-law fears that people would look down on her. You took Eldest Sister-in-law’s gift, and what’s wrong with my Second Sister-in-law?”

Eldest Sister-in-law, who was enjoying the show, laughed, “That’s right!”

“But, I can see that Second Sister-in-law likes it very much. It’s not good for me to do this.” Xiao Qian looked at Second Sister-in-law’s face and could guess how much it hurt to part with the earrings. How could a woman who can’t hide her emotions marry into such a family as the Yu’s? It defied logic.

Wang Xiaohong and Yu Mingyi seemed worlds apart with their huge difference in personalities. How could they possibly live together and share common interests? Xiao Qian watched Wang Xiaohong being toyed with mercilessly and felt sorry but not sympathetic for her.

Ming Lang and Xiao Qian had a great time playing along with each other. He stared at her and slapped the table with his hand, pointing at Xiao Qian and said,

“Chen Xiaoqian, how could you not accept Second Sister-in-law’s earrings? Just melt it into a pendant if it doesn’t fit! Let me tell you, if you dare to look down on my Second Sister-in-law and not take her gift today, that means you look down on me, Yu Minglang!”

Wang Xiaohong’s heart turned cold, wanting to say — please look down on me! Who said I would give you earrings?

But it’s all too late. Ming Lang has already slapped the table to the rhythm of rap.

“Chen Xiaoqian, show your attitude!”

“Thank you, Second Sister-in-law! I will cherish your gift. You’re not mad at me anymore, right? I’m young and don’t understand many things, so please don’t be like me. I never looked down on you. I’ll keep it safe!”

Second Sister-in-law’s smile became forced as she looked at Mother Yu for help, but Mother Yu just played with Panpan, pretending not to see.

Second Sister-in-law realized the situation was hopeless and squeezed out three words from between her teeth, “You’re welcome!”

With a heavy heart, she takes off her earrings, wanting to kill Ming Lang and Xiao Qian.

Ming Lang winks at Xiao Qian, and she responds with a corner of mouth smile.

Well done, a pleasant cooperation..
