Chapter 646: Chapter 620: Secretly Making a Small Resolution~
Yu Minglang was holding the phone with his neck crooked, his hands busy as the sweet voice of his beloved Xiao Mei came through the receiver.
The two chatted casually about everyday things without any particular topic. This was Yu Minglang’s favorite way to relax. No matter how busy or tired he was, her voice always lifted his spirits.
“Is Fu Gui here?”
“Hmm, it’s a pity he came one step too late. I really wanted to play a tune with him, but it’s not you who’ll accompany me to the end~” Xiao Qian looked through the glass of the balcony, and Comrade Liao Fugui was concentrating on watching Liu Mei set up the sand table.
From their appearances, these two really had a complementary couple vibe, only her half-brother came a step too late.
“Qian Bao, don’t take advantage of my absence to commit any lifestyle problems. When did you and Fu Gui rekindle your romance?” Yu Minglang’s brush paused under his hand, and he felt that something was wrong.
“What are you talking about? What rekindling?”
Xiao Qian didn’t even know that Comrade Liao Fugui had had a little crush on her. It was Er Ha (Siberian Husky) who was too cunning and had crushed the sprout of love before it could even germinate.
“Cough cough. I mean, what do you mean he came too late?” Cunning Yu Xiaoqiang wouldn’t remind Xiao Qian that she was once fancying her.
“I originally wanted to introduce Liu Mei to him, but when did Liu Mei get a boyfriend?”
“Oh, that’s right. Now that you mention it, Qian Bao, the organization has a difficult task for you. Can you do it?”
Yu Minglang had been busy getting married these days and almost forgot the task his family had entrusted to him.
“What is it?”
“Liu Mei’s father, who is also my uncle, said that whoever can dissuade Liu Mei from getting married will be rewarded with a car. I think your car should be replaced too…”
Xiao Qian laughed and cried at the same time.
“Yu Xiaoqiang, what are you guys up to? Have you made me a matchmaker?”
“No, no, no, the matchmaker is for promoting marriage. We are breaking up unsuitable couples and doing good deeds. It’s not right for me as an elder brother to handle this. You are my sister-in-law, so it’s okay for you to talk to her about it. She’s such a silly girl that she doesn’t even know what it means to get married. She just wants to marry someone she hardly knows to spite her family.”
“What exactly is going on?”
“Simply put, Liu Mei has a grudge against her family. Her parents are civil servants, right? When she was conceived, the family planning policy wouldn’t allow a second child. So she was registered in Fourth Uncle’s family. Liu Mei’s health has not been good since she was a child. Someone told her fortune and said that she was a temple boy in her previous life, and she would harm her parents and herself. So she had to be sent away to learn martial arts. So her family sent her to the mountains, and she’s been holding a grudge against them ever since. She doesn’t do what they want her to do. A while ago, she suddenly wanted to get married, and it almost killed her uncle.”
“Your uncle’s family is quite unreasonable. How can government officials still be superstitious? Sending such a small child away?”
“I don’t know the details, but Liu Mei is determined to marry someone she doesn’t know very well. My uncle and aunt are helpless. You should educate her on marriage and family.”
“Oh, so you calculated this ahead of time? You didn’t mention it before, waiting until Liu Mei and I have a good relationship, and then you say it’s to make sure I won’t refuse?”
Yu Minglang chuckled, “I’m just taking the overall situation into consideration. If you can get along, please help me work on her. If not, I’ll think of something else. I can’t tear down our house to mend someone else’s. Let’s make sure my wife is happy first.”
Xiao Qian snorted, “Fine, you’re smooth-talking. What are you doing? I keep hearing strange sounds on your end.”
Like something rubbing?
“Well, I have a little task. Qian Bao, what color do you like?”
“Anything is fine, but lately, I’ve been into green.” Xiao Qian didn’t think much about it, as she felt that green was refreshing during hot days.
Yu Minglang lowered his head and looked at the paint bucket with a thoughtful expression, green, huh…
“What are you up to?”
“Nothing~ I’ll surprise you in a couple of days.”
“Hehe…” Xiao Qian laughed reluctantly. Generally, when Xiaoqiang talked about surprises, the final result was always shocking.
“By the way, Xiaoqiang, I have a legal question for you. If I suspect that a foster father has physically violated a foster daughter, can he be sentenced without catching him in the act?”
“Is the girl over 14 years old?”
“Yes.”
“When was the last violation?”
“Right now, I only have suspicions without evidence, and I don’t know whether it’s indecent or worse. The last time, at the earliest, was a few days ago.”
Xiao Qian had her suspicions, but because Fu Gui had said so, she became more convinced in them.
There must be something wrong with the foster father, but she didn’t know how far he had gone.
“Can the girl come out and point it out?”
“The girl is emotionally unstable and can’t mention this matter for now. Xiao Qiang, it’s difficult to legally accuse him, isn’t it?”
“It’s not easy. If the case is reported long after the incident and there’s insufficient evidence, it’s difficult for the judicial organs to accept it. Qian Bao, have you encountered such a case?”
“It seems that if it can’t be resolved publicly, it will have to be handled privately.” Xiao Qian muttered quietly.
“What did you say?” Xiaoqiang had sharp ears.
“Cough cough, I said, I am a noble lady with status, and I always keep my actions in mind. I won’t do anything outside the scope of the law. Don’t worry!”
Xiao Qian added in her heart that if she couldn’t find out, it wasn’t her problem.
“I’m hanging up.”
“No way! You’ve missed something!”
“Huh… Go to bed early?” Xiao Qian didn’t know what he was thinking.
“No way! What do you call me?” His tone was like a child who didn’t get candy.
“Xiao Qiang.”
“No! Wrong!”
“Oh, Xiaoqiangqiang? Xiao Qiangzi? Little Steel Egg~”
She almost angered him to death. Yu Minglang had his wedding ring in his pocket, ready to take her to get their marriage certificate whenever he had free time. He wanted to experience the feeling of being official first, but why was it so hard to hear her sweetly call him husband?
“Oh, you don’t like any of them? I see!”
Yu Minglang instantly became spirited, holding his breath and waiting for the feeling of ecstasy to flood his heart.
“Old~”
That’s right, just like this! Xiao Qiang’s little man in his heart started setting off fireworks. It’s coming, it’s coming~
“Old Egg Egg! Goodnight!” With her prank successful, the little devil inside her crossed her arms and laughed wildly, haha!
Bang! The little fireworks of happiness turned into little bombs, instantly shattering Xiao Qiang’s ambition of becoming official, leaving him in darkness with debris everywhere.
When he tried to talk to her again, the heartless woman had hung up the phone, leaving only a beep on the other end.
“You little troublemaker, just wait until I see you next time!” Yu Minglang muttered to himself, putting his phone in his pocket, knowing full well that he couldn’t carry out his threat.
Xiao Qian is already sparing him, and yet he still thinks of dealing with her. He can only dream about it.
