Situ Sheng slightly turned sideways, consciously making way for Liu, and clenched his fists in his sleeves.

Seeing him grovelling like this, Liu felt happy in her heart: "I will give you another chance today. If you make any mistakes next time, watch out for your life!"

"yes."

Situ Sheng responded softly, feeling extremely humble in front of Liu.

Only after the strong smell of cosmetics in the bridge tunnel disappeared did he raise his head and waved his hand in disgust to get rid of the smell.

At the same time, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he couldn't help but sneer: "Who the hell are you?"

"She's just a prostitute sold to wealthy families. She's still a prostitute, but she really thinks she's become a phoenix."

But when he thought about the fact that Liu would be defeated by him in the future and that he could help Gu Qing eliminate an enemy at the same time, he couldn't help but feel happy.

What I endured just now was nothing.

Finally, he could do something truly useful for Gu Qing.

By the time Situ Sheng returned to Jiaolan, it was already noon. Qiu Rong saw him and called him to the back hall, asking, "Where have you been?"

“What’s it to you?”

Situ Sheng had a bad expression and spoke in a sullen tone.

Qiu Nun was unhappy and frowned as she warned him, "My wife came this morning and mentioned you when she saw you were not here."

"Madam is here?!"

Situ Sheng's expression changed slightly, and he looked a little uneasy.

Perhaps out of personal guilt for Liu, he sighed: "If I had known..."

"What did you mean by knowing it earlier?" Gu Qing's voice and her figure appeared one after another.

Qiu Rong was the first to bow: "Madam."

Situ Sheng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head: "Madam, you are here."

"Well, you were away this morning. Where were you?"

Gu Qing glanced at Situ Sheng and saw that his trouser legs were slightly wet, so he must have just returned not long ago.

Situ Sheng smiled and moved closer: "Madam, I used my monthly allowance to eat breakfast porridge. I heard from Sister Qiu Rong that you called me earlier?"

"What do you want?"

When Qiu Rong heard Situ Sheng calling her sister, she was shocked and looked at him sideways in disbelief.

Is this still the Situ Sheng he knows?

This kid is like two different people in front of his wife and others!

Qiu Rong's dislike for Situ Sheng increased even more, and she deliberately moved to the side.

She didn't want to live with such a villain.

Gu Qing noticed Qiu Rong's mood and called her out, leaving Situ Sheng alone. "What took you so long to eat breakfast porridge?"

“It looks delicious.”

"It's really good. It's especially good because it's the first time I earn money myself." When Situ Sheng mentioned this, the smile on his face was very sincere.

Even Gu Qing was a little dazed.

If this kid was pretending, then she really underestimated him.

"Oh? Really?"

Gu Qing's eyebrows curved slightly, and her smile was just the right amount of polite, not too gentle nor too fake: "Then do you think the monthly salary I give you is enough?"

"Enough! Of course it's enough! I don't need to marry and I don't have parents to support me. This money is enough for me to spend!"

Situ Sheng glanced at the empty teacup on the table beside Gu Qing and stepped forward to fill it for her: "Madam, are you tired from the journey?"

"It's a bright day today, so you should take care of yourself."

Situ Sheng looked forward to serving tea to Gu Qing, his handsome eyes showing the innocence that only a man of his age could have.

But in Gu Qing's eyes, it didn't mean that.

Gu Qing took his tea and put it aside.

Seeing this, Situ Sheng couldn't help but look a little lonely. He lowered his head and said with some fear: "But what did I do wrong?"

"No."

Gu Qing stood up and retracted his scrutiny: "You did a very good job of accounting, without a single mistake."

"It's just that accounting requires not only carefulness but also sincerity."

Situ Sheng's heart skipped a beat.

He knew that Gu Qing's biggest concern about him was his loyalty, but how could he prove himself in the shortest time?

If Gu Qing wants to take out her heart and take a look, he is willing to do so!

But Gu Qing is not such a woman.

"Madam, time will tell. I will prove it to you."

Gu Qing chuckled.

The laughter did not make Situ Sheng happy. He even felt that the laughter was so cold that it made his heart chill.

He looked up in shock, his eyes red: "I will definitely be able to prove that I am loyal to my wife!"

"good!"

Gu Qing raised her slender hand and patted his shoulder: "Besides eating porridge, did you meet anyone else today?"

Their eyes met, and Situ Sheng's gaze was firm, without any evasion, as he said word for word, "No."

"After I finished my porridge, I strolled around the city for a while and then came back."

Gu Qing withdrew his hand without a trace, a flash of disappointment in his eyes, and his expression became a little colder: "You go down first."

"yes."

Situ Sheng didn't know what had made his wife unhappy, and he prepared to leave with his head down.

"Wait."

Gu Qing looked at his leaving back and suddenly spoke.

"Madam?" Situ Sheng turned around quickly and caught the expression on Gu Qing's face, but did not see a trace of smile or tenderness.

"Qingming Festival will be in a few days. I will leave for my ancestral home in the countryside tomorrow. I will leave the sale of new products to you." Gu Qing's words were light, but the heavy burden fell on Situ Sheng's shoulders.

"Me?" Situ Shengjun had a look of disbelief on his face.

Madam will leave such an important matter to me!

After a brief moment of surprise, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Situ Sheng will definitely not let Madam down! Make a lot of money for Madam!"

Thinking back to just now, he responded to Liu's words in the same way.

Gu Qing felt a sense of irony in his heart.

"Go down."

She waved her hand, signaling him to leave.

That night.

Gu Qing told Chen Zhizhou about Situ Sheng's private dealings with the Liu family, and how he entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of selling the new products.

Chen Zhizhou didn't look surprised or puzzled. Instead, he held her in his arms and praised her: "Madam is really amazing."

"If he tries to coax Liu while deceiving Madam, he will be caught between two odds and his true colors will be exposed."

Chen Zhizhou gently kissed Gu Qing's neck, and his hand wandered to her waist and gently pulled the belt.

Gu Qing reacted immediately, holding his hand to stop him, saying, "Don't!"

"We're leaving for the old house tomorrow. Have you forgotten the Chen family's rules?"

Chen Zhizhou sighed helplessly, still exerting force on his hands: "Of course I know, but the rules haven't been followed yet. Isn't there still two hours until tomorrow?"

"I can't touch you for three days. Do you know how much pain I'm in?"

Chen Zhizhou pretended to be pitiful.

The corners of Gu Qing's mouth twitched. Hadn't he asked for enough these past few days?!

Several times a night, she was tortured to the point of back pain and had no energy during the day.

"No, if our ancestors are still alive in heaven, they will blame us if they find out!"

"If you had a spirit, you would have come long ago. Why would you wait until now?"

Gu Qing: “…”
