"You're already sober, why would you drink hangover soup?"
Yang Xi muttered to himself, but still went to make him some sobering soup as he requested.
Why didn't he get drunk to death? He drank so much alcohol.
He caught a cold, it must be because he drank too much. She poured a basin of ice water on him, which only added fuel to the fire.
As soon as Yang Xi entered the kitchen, he received a call from Mu Qing.
"Yang Xi, are you okay? Did Ouyang Yu do anything to you? Why would his people come looking for you?"
Mu Qing and his wife returned to the store and found that Yang Xi was not there. They asked their mother and found out that Yang Xi had left with Ouyang Yu's men.
She was worried about her friend and called him immediately. Fortunately, the call went through, which meant that Yang Xi was fine. At least he was free to move around and could answer the phone.
"I'm fine."
Yang Xi replied in a low voice, "It's a long story. Anyway, I offended Ouyang Yu, and now I'm being retaliated by him."
"What did he do to you? Do we need to call the police? I'll ask Junbo to take me to find you."
Mu Qing didn’t know where Ouyang Yu’s home was, but Ye Junbo definitely knew.
"Mu Qing, no need. Ouyang Yu didn't do anything to me. I poured a basin of ice water on him and he caught a cold. He wanted to retaliate by asking me to be his servant for a few days and take care of him until he recovered."
Yang Xi told his friends about Ouyang Yu's revenge.
"Mu Qing, I can't go back to the store these few days. I'll leave the store affairs to you. As for my family, I will tell them that I'm too busy. I will stay in your rented house for a few days so that it will be convenient for me to go to work. If my mother calls you to verify it, you have to help me cover up this lie."
Mu Qing: "...How did you get involved with Ouyang Yu and even poured a basin of ice water on him?"
"I'll tell you when I get back. You don't have to come here to seek justice for me. In fact, I am indeed responsible for Ouyang Yu's cold. He won't hurt me. He just lets me be his servant and do some housework. He is already very kind."
Mu Qing asked, "You really don't need me to go over there?"
"No need. If you come over here, it might just spark a conflict between me and Bad Boss."
Mu Qing could only say, "Then you have to be careful. If Ouyang Yu hurts you, you must call the police and tell me. I will help you seek justice."
"Don't worry, I will protect myself."
Yang Xi comforted his friend.
She insisted on not letting Mu Qing come over, and Mu Qing verbally agreed to her request. After the call ended, she asked Ye Junbo, "Do you know where Ouyang Yu's home is? I'll go and bring Yang Xi back."
Ye Junbo, who was standing next to her, heard a lot of the conversation between the two.
He comforted his wife: "Although Ouyang Yu is not a good person, he is not that bad. He will not hurt Yang Xi. At most, he will discipline Yang Xi and teach Yang Xi a little lesson. Don't worry about Yang Xi. It was Yang Xi who caused Ouyang Yu's illness. He asked Yang Xi to take responsibility, and Yang Xi is willing to take responsibility. So we don't have to go there."
"If we really go and bring Yang Xi back, Ouyang Yu will still find an opportunity to settle the score with Yang Xi. It's better to let them settle the score now, so that Yang Xi won't have to live in fear every day."
Ye Junbo knows his mortal enemy very well.
He asked Yang Xi to take care of him, and he really meant it and would not do anything else.
After all, the woman he deeply loved was Zhao Shu, and no other woman was in his eyes at all.
With Ye Junbo's persuasion, Mu Qing had to give up going to pick up Yang Xi.
Seeing that she was still worried about Yang Xi, Ye Junbo said softly: "I'll arrange for someone to find out and make sure Yang Xi is safe, and then come back to tell you."
Mu Qing nodded.
After the couple finished whispering in each other's ears, Mu Qing pretended nothing had happened and returned to Zhang Guifeng.
"Mom, are you planning to stay here for a while?"
Mu Qing pointed to the small suitcase her mother brought.
"Why, your mother is not welcome to stay?"
"No way, I mean, why do you suddenly want to come and live with me? My dad, you don't care about him anymore? My grandparents are old, you don't care about them anymore?"
Zhang Guifeng poked her daughter's forehead with her finger and said, "Are you hiding something from me? Are you afraid I'll expose it if I stay? I'm at home 365 days a year, taking care of my parents-in-law, husband, and children, and you don't even allow me to take a few days off?"
"Without me, they can't survive? Before your father married me, weren't he and your grandparents still living well?"
Mu Qing: ...She just said a few words, and her mother refuted her several times.
"Mom, I opened the refrigerator and saw some pears, so I squeezed a glass of pear juice for you. It's hot, so drink a glass of iced pear juice to cool you down."
The person who spoke was Ye Junbo.
He actually squeezed a glass of pear juice for his mother-in-law.
Zhang Guifeng immediately beamed, took the pear juice handed over by her son-in-law with both hands, and praised Ye Junbo with a smile: "Junbo is really considerate and thoughtful, unlike Mu Qing who only knows how to talk back to me."
Ye Junbo smiled gently and said, "Qingqing cares about Mom too. When I go shopping with her, she always thinks of you first when she sees something nice. Qingqing has also bought you a lot of nice things. Remember to bring them back when Mom goes back."
Mu Qing: “…”
Honey, she didn’t buy a lot of things.
Ye Junbo seemed not to notice his wife's reaction and still maintained a gentle attitude towards his mother-in-law.
Zhang Guifeng scolded her daughter: "Your store's business has just started to pick up, and you haven't even made back your investment yet, and you're already wasting money. Mom doesn't need anything. If there's anything I need, it's a grandson and a grandson-in-law. When will you and your brother satisfy me?"
Mu Qing's face flushed, "Mom."
She let out a low cry.
When she looked up, she saw Ye Junbo looking at her affectionately.
That look speaks for itself.
Her face turned even redder.
This man flirts with her regardless of the situation. Does he want to electrocute her to death?
"Mom, don't blame Qingqing. It was Qingqing who picked the things, and I paid. I have a high salary, and I don't spend much money on my own. I don't know what to do with the money I save. It just so happens that Mu Qing found something nice for you, so I have something to spend money on."
Mu Qing complained in a low voice: "First you hurt me, then you saved me, you are the god and the ghost!"
The more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him.
This is the case with Zhang Guifeng.
"Junbo, even if you have a high income, don't spend money recklessly. Mom really doesn't need anything, so you don't need to buy anything for her. Save your money and buy a house. Decorate it, and then after you have your wedding, you can move in. Having your own little home is better than anything else."
Mu Qing thought to herself: Her man doesn't have much other than a lot of money. He already has a house.
Ye Junbo owns more than one house.
"Mom, I'll listen to you. From now on, when I get my salary every month, I'll give one-third to Qingqing for living expenses, one-third to you, Dad, and Grandpa and Grandma, and I'll save one-third to buy a house soon."
Mu Qing: ...
