Chapter 19

Yuan Qing’an admitted it, which meant that Li Rou had met with him privately and was worried that it would cause trouble for her.

Yuan Qing’an didn’t admit it, but it seemed unreasonable. Since it wasn’t Li Rou who said it, then who said it?

While Yuan Qing’an was hesitating, Xu Zhihuan had already guessed what was going on. It was indeed Li Rou.

Wang Wanjun threw the chopsticks on the table with a “bang” and had a cold face. She was obviously angry about Li Rou’s behavior. Not only did she not have time to settle the score with Li Rou, but Li Rou even dared to gossip in front of Yuan Qing’an. Yuan Qing’an, this idiot, also helped Li Rou.

Xu Zhihuan crossed his arms and said stiffly, “What did Li Rou tell you?”

Yuan Qing’an replied with an unnatural expression, “She didn’t tell me anything. I know it myself. Don’t try to change the subject here.”

“Let me guess,” Xu Zhihuan deliberately stretched out his voice and continued, “Li Rou said I was taking revenge on her, on her friends?”

Yuan Qing’an frowned, wondering how Xu Zhihuan knew so much.

“Ha!” Xu Zhihuan snorted disdainfully. “I’m so happy to have gotten rid of a fool like you. This should be a cause for celebration. Why would I want to take revenge on her?”

“Yuan Qing’an, please use your pig brain to think carefully. How could I possibly send an innocent person to the Public Security Bureau? We live in a society ruled by law now. You must be responsible for your words. If you have no evidence, I can sue you for false accusations.”

“Before you came to question me, you should have investigated everything yourself. What Li Rou told you might not be true.”

Xu Zhihuan finished speaking word by word, raised his hand and pointed at the door, “You can get out now!”

Yuan Qing’an didn’t believe what Xu Zhihuan said, he believed Li Rou.

Yuan Qing’an’s chest rose and fell violently. “I want to know now, are you cheating on me?!”

“What you said is quite interesting. We broke off our engagement because you betrayed me. You cheated on me!” Xu Zhihuan had completely lost the patience to talk nonsense with him. “You don’t really think I dare not go to the police station to report it!”

“No need to be so troublesome.” Xu Jinnan slowly stood up, looking at Yuan Qing’an with sharp eyes, as if he was ready to take action if Yuan Qing’an didn’t leave.

Yuan Qing’an took two steps back cautiously, “Xu Jinnan, you can’t beat me!”

“What about me?”

As Zhou Yichuan spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong and muscular forearms.

Yuan Qing’an swallowed hard, he couldn’t beat Zhou Yichuan.

In the past few years, Brigade Commander Zhou was the champion of the military region’s major competitions for several consecutive years, and Yuan Qing’an was very clear about the value of “major competition champion” and “consecutive years”. His best result was only third place, and he was lucky that year.

In front of Xu Zhihuan, Yuan Qing’an was once again outdone by her current boyfriend, which made her feel embarrassed.

“Alright, both of you sit down first.” Xu Guoqiang naturally wouldn’t actually watch them fight. He looked at Yuan Qing’an with a gloomy expression, “Qing’an, your actions now make me increasingly disappointed. How could Old Yuan have a son like you who can’t tell right from wrong? I’m lucky I didn’t marry my daughter to you, otherwise you don’t know how much she would have suffered!”

“You have no right to ask my daughter these questions today. You should first find out what’s going on! You just believed Li Rou’s random words? As a man, you don’t even have basic judgment. In my opinion, your future is just this.”

Xu Guoqiang knew that Yuan Qing’an was not convinced. Everyone has been young, and people of his age are frivolous!

He might not even take his own father’s words to heart, let alone an outsider like him.

Xu Guoqiang has no interest in helping others teach their sons a lesson. He is protecting his own daughter.

“If you come in here without permission again, I will call the police and have you arrested.”

“Don’t worry, my daughter has completely given up on you and won’t have any thoughts about you anymore. You are not worthy of being my son-in-law.”

After Xu Guoqiang finished speaking, he glanced at him unhappily and asked, “Are you still not leaving?”

Yuan Qing’an brought shame upon himself again!

He knew that if he didn’t leave now, he would have no way out.

With his current abilities, he is no match for the Xu family.

Yuan Qing’an turned around and walked out.

Xu Guoqiang ordered Aunt Wen to close the door, “If he comes again, chase him out with a broom!”

Aunt Wen: “Yes.”

Xu Guoqiang waved his hand, “Come on, Yichuan, let’s continue eating.”

Wang Wanjun looked at the cold food and suggested, “Do you want to heat it up?”

“Auntie, there’s no need to heat it up.” Zhou Yichuan pursed his lips slightly, “In the past, when we were on missions, it was common to eat cold steamed buns.”

“Eating cold, hard food for a long time can easily cause a poor appetite.” Wang Wanjun frowned and said with concern, “When you’re promoted to deputy division commander, you won’t be on missions as often. You should take good care of your spleen and stomach.”

“Yichuan was sent on the mission because the military district leaders appreciated his abilities. If it weren’t for their spirit of defending the country and risking their lives, how could we have such a good life!” Xu Guoqiang pretended to be angry and said that the affairs of the military district were not something that they, as outsiders, could talk about casually.

Wang Wanjun realized that she had said the wrong thing and smiled awkwardly, “Yichuan, Auntie just said it casually, please don’t take it to heart.”

“I think what my uncle and aunt said makes sense. My aunt is concerned about my health, and my uncle has a broader perspective.”

Zhou Yichuan said softly.

Xu Guoqiang nodded with satisfaction. Yes, this was the best son-in-law candidate in his mind!

Xu Jinnan: “…” He knew Zhou Yichuan, and what he just said was clearly meant to flatter him.

There’s something wrong with him!

Something is very, very wrong!!

Xu Zhihuan didn’t care what they were thinking at all. At this moment, his mind was full of what Li Rou would do next?

Yuan Qing’an hits a wall at the Xu family, and the Public Security Bureau has no right to intervene. If he fails to fulfill Li Rou’s instructions, what will happen to Li Rou?

“Yichuan, I think it’s getting late today. You just drank some wine and drove here by yourself. It’s too dangerous to go back by yourself. Why don’t you stay here tonight?”

Wang Wanjun took the initiative to say, “My house has plenty of guest rooms. I’ll ask Aunt Wen to prepare one for you!”

“The room across from Zhihuan will do!” Xu Guoqiang said. “That room is spacious.”

Zhou Yichuan didn’t refuse, “Then I’ll stay here tonight and trouble my uncle and aunt for one more night!”

“No trouble, you’re not a trouble at all. Auntie likes you. You can come and stay whenever you want in the future!” Wang Wanjun curled the corners of her lips. By the time Xu Zhihuan reacted, Zhou Yichuan had stayed overnight???

The most important thing is that I live across the street from her.

Xu Zhihuan is still scared when she sees men.

Maybe it was because he ate too much salty food at night, but Xu Zhihuan’s throat felt dry before going to bed.

Unfortunately, there was no water in the house, and I was too lazy to go downstairs to get some water. I thought I would not feel thirsty if I fell asleep.

The more he thought about it, the thirstier he became. Xu Zhihuan couldn’t bear it anymore, so he went out to get some water.

“…” His throat felt refreshed, as if a long drought had finally brought him some fresh rain. After finishing a large cup, Xu Zhihuan felt unsatisfied and poured himself another, thinking, what if he woke up in the middle of the night and was thirsty again?

She went upstairs with the cup of water and was about to go back to the room when the bedroom door opposite opened.
