Chapter 10 Wei Laicheng, the Sucker
"Doctor, what did you say? Say it again?"
After the doctor finished repeating the instructions, the couple looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Am I being made a scapegoat?"
"You've been treated like a sucker?"
Their voices rang out simultaneously, both filled with disbelief.
"Wei Laicheng, what deep-seated grudge do you have against your master? Is this some kind of scheme to make you an unwitting father?"
"It shouldn't be that bad!"
He was accused of being disrespectful to his elders, throwing away all his treasured tea, and constantly complaining to his master's wife...
Such a small trick, it's not worth being so petty as to put such a green hat on him!
"Honey, no, I have to go ask that old man what he meant by doing this to me!"
Before Jiang Xixi could respond, Wei Laicheng had already disappeared from sight.
...
"Master, where are you? Come out now, you're going to kill your disciple!"
Master Jiang had just sneaked into the kitchen, ready to have something delicious to eat, when he was scared half to death by his unruly apprentice's roar.
He rushed out of the kitchen and stood at the door, glaring at his good apprentice with annoyance.
Finally, his wife wasn't home, and he wanted to eat something sweet, but this brat ruined it all.
"How did I harm you? Explain yourself to this old man, and don't slander your master."
"How did you manage to get me into trouble, old man Jiang? You told me last time that you would introduce me to someone, right?"
"Yes, you're not getting any younger. As your mentor, shouldn't I take care of your important life event?"
"What? Can't wait any longer? Let's wait a while longer, then I'll talk to the girl's parents." Master Jiang said, revealing a strange smile that made Wei Laicheng feel uneasy.
"What? I told you back then that I already had a boyfriend, and I told you not to play matchmaker, but you wouldn't listen. Not to mention the person you introduced, who is pregnant with someone else's child. What deep grudge do you have against your apprentice? No wonder my master's wife says you're unreliable."
"Wei Laicheng, do you know what you're saying? Don't make things up without evidence; this could be a matter of life and death." If you don't want to, then don't. You can't just ruin a young lady's reputation. This brat really needs to be taught a lesson.
"I know! You need evidence? Come with me to the hospital now, anyone you ask can be a witness."
At this point, Master Jiang was already convinced that his apprentice, who usually seemed carefree and irresponsible, would never joke about a girl's reputation.
Who was it that kept praising the Qi family girl back then?
Perhaps thinking of something, a cold smile crept onto Master Jiang's lips.
The Wang family?
Well done!
...
Jiang Xixi, supporting her pregnant belly, walked to the ward door. To be honest, the cafeteria chef's cooking skills were really good.
She bought two boxed meals, one with braised pork and the other with scrambled eggs with tomatoes. She originally planned to eat one herself and save one for Wei Laicheng.
Who would have thought that the chef's cooking skills were so good? Jiang Xixi couldn't resist and finished both portions.
You know what, aside from feeling a bit full, I still felt a little unsatisfied.
As she approached the ward door, intending to go straight in, the sounds coming from inside made her immediately put down the doorknob.
"Jiaojiao, didn't you say you had already made a plan?"
Do you know that if my wife finds out about our relationship, not only will the two of us be finished, but your Qi family and our Wang family will be wiped out as well?
"You're not a child anymore. Can't you be a little more thorough in your work?"
“Ah Wei, but I really have no other choice. I thought Wei Laicheng was just a country boy with no connections, so he would be easier to fool than someone from the city. I didn’t expect…”
"You didn't think of that? That's what you always say. So tell me, what should we do now?"
Jiang Xixi, standing outside the door, looked on with curiosity. Was this guy Qi Jiaojiao's lover?
Oh wow, this adulterer seems to have a powerful family background, and Qi Jiaojiao is actually a mistress.
It seems that my Wei Laicheng isn't the only victim!
"For now, you need to keep this guy quiet, at least stop him from talking nonsense, or we'll both be in trouble. I'll figure out the rest. The baby can't stay in her belly, let's go to a small clinic to get some medication!"
"Awei, I can't bear to part with him."
"You're not willing to part with the baby, my foot! I don't want to repeat myself. Get rid of the baby right now."
Jiang Xixi listened to the sounds inside, and her expression kept changing.
As the saying goes, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful.
Qi Jiaojiao is such a fool, falling for such a poisonous and tasteless man.
As she listened and complained, she suddenly felt a gust of hot air coming from beside her ear.
Looking up, who else could it be but Wei Laicheng?
Beside him stood an elderly man with white hair but boundless energy.
This must be the master he was talking about.
Neither of them looked good. Wei Laicheng was speechless, feeling utterly unlucky.
Master Jiang felt guilty, thinking that his apprentice was lucky, otherwise he would have been ruined by his unreliable master.
No, he has to make amends, otherwise the brat will definitely go back and complain to his wife.
The thought of the sleepless nights he would face if his wife found out sent a chill down his spine.
Their leisurely life has been disrupted. They still want to live their lives? Dream on! If I don't teach those people a lesson today, they'll really think I, Jiang Zheng, am a pushover.
"Come to Cheng, go to the government compound and call the heads of the Qi, Wang, and Jiang families. If they ask, just say that Jiang Zheng from the transportation team is looking for him."
"Master, what if they don't come?"
“They will definitely come.” Master Jiang’s face was full of certainty.
If they don't come, they shouldn't blame this old man for being impolite. After all, everyone knows that Jiang Zheng is extremely protective of his own.
Wei Laicheng nodded, still feeling somewhat uneasy as he left.
He cautioned, "Wife, you and Master shouldn't rush in by yourselves. It wouldn't be good if those two got desperate and hurt you."
Only after the two nodded in agreement did Wei Laicheng feel relieved and turn to leave.
"You're that kid's wife?" Master Jiang sized her up for a while. Jiang Xixi thought he was displeased with her and wanted to cause trouble, but she didn't expect his next sentence to make her both laugh and cry.
"How did you even fall for that brat? He's so arrogant and always tattles. Girl, you don't have good taste."
Master Jiang nodded as he spoke, as if it were a serious matter.
"I don't know anything else about him, but his face is incredibly handsome; I fell for him at first sight," Jiang Xixi replied earnestly, her eyes full of sincerity.
To be honest, that handsome face had already won her a third of her favor the moment she saw him after getting off the train.
Perhaps speechless, it took Master Jiang a long time to finally utter a sentence: "Superficial. Actually, that kid has quite a few merits. If you look closely, you'll find some admirable qualities."
Jiang Xixi almost couldn't help but laugh when she saw the anxious little expression on the master's face.
Wei Laicheng's master is quite interesting.
As it turns out, Wei Laicheng's master was not only interesting, but also incredibly skilled.
With just a cane and a mouth, he sat in the middle of the ward and berated the parties involved.
And so, those few people didn't dare to refute it.
Instead, he smiled obsequiously, and the head of the Wang family even brewed a pot of hot tea, saying he was afraid the old man would be thirsty.
Jiang Xixi looked at the scene before her thoughtfully. It seemed that Wei Laicheng's background was quite extraordinary!
