Chapter 108: Eat Whatever You Want Without Suffering Any Loss
Jiang Hao admired Xu Qian’s gentleness and kindness, and even more, he appreciated her understanding.
She was smart and bright, unlike many shy girls.
As he looked at Xu Qian, he felt captivated by her beauty and the radiance she exuded, making her appear like a blooming flower.
Seeing Jiang Hao staring at her, Xu Qian asked, a bit shyly, “Brother Jiang, is there something on my face? What are you looking at?”
Jiang Hao immediately averted his gaze, saying, “Qian, I have a big problem with this matter. I knew very well how she felt towards me, but I did not keep my distance and didn’t even know how to avoid suspicion. I’m sorry; I will pay more attention to these details in the future.”
Xu Qian listened thoughtfully. “You do have a big problem. When a woman has such feelings for you, you have to be careful not to fall into her trap. If you do something wrong, should you be punished?”
Her words stirred something in Jiang Hao’s heart. She was not as forgiving as he had thought; she wouldn’t tolerate his mistakes. He found her slightly angry demeanor to be quite cute.
“Sister Qi may not be what you think, but I accept the punishment you give me. Just tell me what you want me to do,” he replied earnestly.
Xu Qian’s eyes brightened as she considered it. “Well, I’ll punish you to clean the yard and put away the broken bricks.”
“Okay! I’ll do it right away,” Jiang Hao responded without hesitation.
Xu Qian smiled, “This is just this time; it won’t happen again. If you can’t keep a proper distance from a woman who covets you, then I won’t be with you anymore.”
She said it seriously, recognizing the importance of the matter. If he truly lacked boundaries, such situations could arise again, and she wouldn’t tolerate it. Gossip could spread like wildfire, and it was essential to maintain a good reputation.
Jiang Hao was taken aback by Xu Qian’s words. He had thought she was only kind and understanding, but it turned out she had her own principles. He realized he hadn’t been careful enough and felt the weight of his earlier mistakes.
Despite the sweltering sun, he wasted no time and headed straight to the courtyard wall to sort out the broken bricks. Li Aihua didn’t like to clean up, and Xu Tianming’s legs were not in good shape. The yard looked decent, but the pile of broken bricks made it appear untidy. Xu Qian had wanted to clean it up for a long time but never found the time.
Now was the perfect opportunity for Jiang Hao to learn a lesson.
Watching from the window, Xu Weilan felt satisfied. Her sister Qian was not as naive as they had thought.
Xu Nian beamed with pride. “She is worthy of being my sister. She didn’t foolishly tolerate him. If it was the first time, there would be a second time. Well done!”
Xu Weilan chuckled, “Thanks to sister Qian, I didn’t have much trouble today.”
“Sister Lan, you can rest assured now. Although my sister is kind-hearted, she is also smart and won’t let herself suffer any loss!” Xu Nian declared proudly.
Xu Weilan felt pleased as she reflected on her sisters. She thought back to the two sisters in her previous life.
Xu Nian had married an ordinary worker who, because of his personality, led to a tumultuous life for her.
Eventually, she divorced him and became self-employed, managing to raise her child alone.
Xu Qian, following her third uncle and third aunt’s arrangement, married a self-employed person. Thanks to her calm and composed nature, she got along well with her husband.
However, she struggled with a troublesome mother-in-law who attempted to control her life. Despite the challenges, Xu Qian was resilient and never let herself suffer undue hardship.
In this life, everything had changed, but Xu Weilan believed that with their smart minds, her sisters could still live good lives.
As the long summer days continued, after dinner, Xu Nian rode her bicycle to take Xu Weilan back to the military compound.
On the way, they met Qin Yan, who was driving quickly but managed to spot his wife instantly.
Qin Yan wanted to take Xu Nian with him, but she happily declined, riding her bicycle instead.
Xu Weilan felt a bit worried about Xu Nian’s safety.
Qin Yan reassured her, “I’m only worried about other people’s safety. Her fist can make facial bones concave! She is a strong girl rarely seen in a century!”
Xu Weilan was skeptical. “It’s not that exaggerated.”
“If you don’t believe it, I’ll take you to the training ground one day to see how she beats those recruits who look down on others. Her strength is incredible!” Qin Yan enthusiastically replied.
Xu Weilan became curious, “Did Xu Bai not say he liked her before? Does he still like her now?”
Qin Yan chuckled at the thought of Xu Bai and Xu Nian. “They are like brothers now.”
“Haha…”
As they spoke about Xu Nian and Xu Bai, Xu Weilan couldn’t help but think of Jiang Hao and Xu Qian. She relayed what she had observed in the military compound today.
Upon hearing it, Qin Yan frowned. “Why is Jiang Hao so stupid?”
“He explained everything to Qian. She seemed to understand and even punished him to clean up the broken bricks in my yard.
He was really attentive and built a flower bed with the bricks under the scorching sun. All we need to do later is add soil to plant flowers,” Xu Weilan explained.
Qin Yan inquired, “If Jiang Hao still has an unclear relationship with Qi Lu in the future, what will you do?”
“Qian probably knows what is going on. The girl in our family will never suffer any loss,” Xu Weilan confidently reassured him.
Qin Yan nodded. “Actually, Jiang Hao is just not mature enough in his thinking, and he doesn’t understand women. Some women can be very complicated.”
“Do you think Qi Lu deliberately wiped Jiang Hao’s face in front of me yesterday? Did she have other intentions?” Xu Weilan asked.
Qin Yan considered it for a moment. “She may have done it on purpose to create a rift between Jiang Hao and Xu Qian, hoping to take advantage of the situation.”
Xu Weilan admired him. “Oh, I really found a treasure a good husband who can identify bitches.”
“What did you call me?” Qin Yan slammed on the brakes, his face lighting up with excitement.
“Hubby…” Xu Weilan felt a bit shy under his intense gaze.
Qin Yan looked utterly enchanted.
“Shout a few more times…”
