Chapter 197: I tortured myself to death, but other men got the advantage
Chu Li looked up, "Grandpa, why are you here?"
Old Master Chu sat down on the sofa and snorted coldly: "Let me see how you kill yourself."
"I have a lot of things on my hands..."
"Don't make excuses. Assistant Wu told me that you've been living and eating at the company these past few days, staying up half the night."
Chu Li put down his pen and rubbed his eyebrows.
"There are big projects these days."
Mr. Chu exposed his lie and said, "Cheng Wan is gone, you feel uncomfortable, right?"
Chu Li was silent. He could only numb himself with work to stop thinking about her.
At this time, Old Master Chu really wished that Chu Li and himself were as romantic and passionate as his father, and at least would not be sad because of a woman.
It’s a pity that Chu Li didn’t inherit this.
"Have you ever thought that if you die here, will Cheng Wan be sad for you?" The old man suppressed his anger and comforted his grandson.
Chu Li smiled bitterly. Of course she wouldn't.
Old Master Chu added, "Think about it again. Cheng Wan is still young. If she finds a man to marry in the future, your children will have to call him dad. Can you bear it?"
Chu Li clenched his fingers. Needless to say, he couldn't bear it.
Mr. Chu continued angrily, "If you torture yourself to death here, other men will get the advantage in the future."
Chu Li opened his mouth, his emotions fluctuating.
The old man has a point.
He and Cheng Wan still have a lifetime to spend together, and he can't let another man get away with it.
Even if they couldn't be together, at least he could protect her.
Instead of watching other men lend a helping hand to her when she needs help.
He closed the file, picked up his coat and draped it over his arm.
Mr. Chu was very satisfied, "Are you going to find her now?"
Chu Li said calmly: "Go home and sleep."
He needs rest.
Old Master Chu choked and left with a bad look on his face.
But I finally felt relieved.
His most proud grandson was saved.
…
Cheng Wan rested at home for several days. Seeing that Cheng Huayu and his wife were meticulous and patient with Qin Ping'an, and that Qin Ping'an also liked them very much, he was completely relieved.
She went to the studio.
Xiao Yu saw her and burst into tears. "Sister Cheng, you're finally back. What happened?"
If Cheng Wan hadn't replied to her messages, she would have thought she was about to lose her job.
Cheng Wan nudged the assistant and said with a smile, "I'm back now. Don't worry, you can stay at the store by yourself these few days. I'll give you double your salary."
Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with tears. "It's not about the salary. I'm really worried about you."
"By the way, there are two sisters in the store. They said they are here to help."
This is what Xiaoyu is worried about. When the two sisters came over and managed the store in an orderly manner, Xiaoyu immediately felt a sense of crisis.
But she didn't dare to ask Cheng Wan directly and was very nervous.
After all, it is really hard to find a beautiful and generous boss.
"I know, don't worry, I have no plans to fire you for the time being." Cheng Wan gave Xiao Yu a reassurance.
Xiaoyu immediately smiled happily and went to work.
Cheng Wan looked at the neat and bright studio and felt more relaxed than ever before.
She is free now.
There are a lot of orders in the store because she was in the hospital, and they all need to be processed one by one.
Cheng Wan quickly shook off his emotions and started working seriously.
It took three days before the work became a little easier.
She finally had time to make perfume for the old lady.
After thinking about it, I decided to prepare one for the third wife as well, to thank her for helping to keep Ping An safe.
Cheng Wan actually wanted to bring Qin Ping'an to the store as he did before, but the Third Madam refused. She liked Ping'an and was willing to take him with her.
Old Madam Cheng secretly told Cheng Wan that the Third Madam was much more cheerful than before and smiled more often, which was a good thing.
Cheng Wan didn't mention it again, but just remembered the kindness of the Third Madam in his heart.
After work, she went home with perfume.
Cheng Han was discharged from the hospital today and will continue to recuperate at home, so Qin Yunshu is also here.
Old Madam Cheng then called the Second Madam and Cheng Mingzhu to come for dinner.
Everyone was sitting at the dining table at this time.
Cheng Wan washed his hands and came over to sit next to Qin Ping'an.
The Second Madam said sarcastically, "How busy are you that you have to make the elders wait for you to eat."
Cheng Wan ignored her and just kissed Qin Ping'an's little face.
"Okay, let's eat." Old Madam Cheng said, "I have work to do every night, so it's a good thing to be busy."
The second wife looked at him with disdain.
During the meal, Old Madam Cheng mentioned that she was going to Bali Town. She was grateful to Grandma Qin for taking care of Cheng Wan and wanted to go there in person to take a look.
The Second Madam pursed her lips and said, "Cheng Wan has been back for a few days, and he hasn't even visited his own parents, right?"
Cheng Wan said calmly, "He passed away before he was discharged from the hospital."
The second wife choked.
Her gaze fell on Qin Yunshu, and after a quick roll of her eyes, she deliberately said, "I remember Yunshu is also a perfumer, right? Why doesn't she follow Cheng Wan's example and set up her own studio? Do you think you can't compare to Cheng Wan?"
She knew that Cheng Wan and Qin Yunshu had a bad relationship, so she deliberately brought up this matter to provoke them.
She did it on purpose.
Qin Yunshu was embarrassed. After all, she always wanted to surpass Cheng Wan, but was always surpassed by Cheng Wan.
Now Cheng Wan has his own studio and is Mr. Fang's apprentice.
And she had almost nothing.
But she won't let others laugh at her.
"I'm trying to get pregnant. Those things are not worth my time and energy." She retorted.
The second wife frowned. Preparing for pregnancy?
lie.
She laughed calmly, "Didn't I hear you were getting divorced?"
The smile on Qin Yunshu's face froze and he clenched his chopsticks.
Madam Cheng glared at her second daughter-in-law and said, "Eat your meal."
The second wife narrowed her eyes, snorted coldly and remained silent.
Qin Yunshu put down his bowl and chopsticks, his face pale, and whispered, "I'm full, take your time."
The second wife looked down on him, calling him a waste.
After dinner, Cheng Wan took Qin Ping'an to play in the small garden.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Qin Yunshu not far away.
Cheng Wan withdrew his gaze and spoke to Qin Ping'an in a low voice, asking him how he was getting along with the Third Madam.
Qin Yunshu walked over.
Facing Cheng Wan, she subconsciously straightened her back and raised her chin.
"Cheng Wan, did you say something in front of the old lady?"
She could feel the old lady's dislike for her.
She had little contact with the old lady, and apart from Cheng Wan, she couldn't think of anyone else who would gossip in front of the old lady.
Cheng Wan touched Qin Ping'an's head and asked him to carry the puppy back to the house.
After the child left, Cheng Wan said, "I just told the old lady what you did."
"It's you." Qin Yunshu's expression was a little distorted.
He dug his fingernails into his palms, pressing extra hard.
Cheng Wan looked at her coldly and indifferently, "Qin Yunshu, when you hurt Qingya's hand, I said I would give you a hand. Now that you have killed Qingya, you should pay her with your life."
Qin Yunshu gritted his teeth, "Pay with your life? Do you dare to kill me?"
Cheng Wan smiled and said, "Why would I kill you? I just want to take away everything you long for."
She walked closer to Qin Yunshu and laughed mockingly, "For example, Cheng Han, whom you've been thinking about so much."
