Chapter 9: The Overbearing Boss's Runaway Bride (VIII) shuhaige.net



When it comes to shamelessness, Sophie dares to say she is second to none.

She successfully squeezed into Aunt Wang's house and slung the fruit basket in her hand over her arm.

By the time Aunt Wang realized what was happening, Sophie was already sitting on the small sofa in the room. She patted the empty seat next to her and waved to Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, come in and sit down. You're welcome."

Aunt Wang was stunned by her warmth, and she hesitantly moved to sit next to Sophie.

He comes with ill intentions.

Only one thought flashed through Aunt Wang's mind, and Sophie raised her hand and held her rough hand.

"Aunt Wang, it's really not easy for you to raise Qingqing alone these years."

She frowned slightly, and a hint of heartache flashed in her eyes.

Then why are you firing me?

It turns out to be false sympathy.

Aunt Wang’s voice successfully awakened the system’s scoring mechanism.

[Ding! The host is hated by the cook, Kindness value -10, Innocence value -10.]

What? You can’t even empathize?

Sophie suppressed her twitching brows and continued softly, "Aunt Wang, the work in the Jiang family's kitchen is so heavy and the pay is so low. I really couldn't bear to see you working so hard, so I used this excuse to fire you."

Aunt Wang's solemn expression changed repeatedly with the words she spoke.

"Aunt Wang, I've come here specifically to express my condolences on behalf of the Jiang family for your dedication over the years. Here's a bank card with a PIN number of six eights. The amount isn't large, just 500,000 yuan. I hope you can forgive the Jiang family's lack of attention to you and accept this employee subsidy!"

Sophie handed over the bank card in her hand with both hands with utmost sincerity.

500,000? Not 500?

Aunt Wang looked at the golden card in amazement and was so excited that she was speechless.

[Ding! The host received a critical hit from the cook, Kindness value +50, Innocence value +50.]

The system's notification sound was so beautiful that Sophie secretly thought that she had made the right choice.

"Miss Jiang, I didn't expect there is such a good person like you in this world who is both hypocritical and kind-hearted!"

Aunt Wang hugged Jiang Ying and cried with joy.

Huh? Why does this sound weird...

Never mind, just praise her!

Sophie patted Aunt Wang's trembling shoulders, and they both cried together.

"Miss Jiang, when Qingqing recovers, I will definitely bring him to visit you at the Jiang family!"

Aunt Wang held Qingqing's hand and waved goodbye to Sophie at the door.

"Okay, I hope Qingqing still remembers me by then!"

Sophie pinched the boy's thin face and made an agreement with the two of them.

After successfully earning points, Sophie's steps were exceptionally light, and she walked out of Aunt Wang's community humming a little tune.

At the corner of the street, a familiar figure walked towards her.

Sophie grabbed the hat of the model at the door of the clothing store and put it on her head.

After waking up from a hangover, Xi Mengru had no extra thoughts to pay attention to the passers-by around her. She covered her aching head and walked towards home.

Phew, that was close. I actually forgot the heroine’s home is nearby.

Sophie sighed as she looked at Xi Mengru's receding figure. A strong gaze came from above her head, forcing her to look back.

Wow, this model is actually alive?

Sophie stared blankly at the tall man with delicate features in front of her.

You know what, this little guy is quite handsome.

"Miss, can you give me my hat back?"

Words without any emotion escaped from the man's thin lips.

Sophie laughed dryly and put the hat back on his head.

She considerately smoothed the man's hair that was a little messy because of her.

As he was about to withdraw his hand, the man suddenly grabbed her slender wrist.

Eh???

What is going on?

"Miss Jiang, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

The man's deep voice contained a hint of ambiguous smile. Sophie's pupils widened for a moment, and she suddenly remembered who this man was.

Isn't this the crazy male second Si Jin who is willing to give up everything for the heroine in the original plot?

Talking about the relationship between him and the heroine would take three days and three nights to finish.

In short, he has been the heroine's most loyal protector and all-purpose bootlicker since his school days. For the heroine, he can do anything.

As a stumbling block to the heroine's happiness, Jiang Ying frequently confronts him head-on. The two have a long-standing grudge, and Si Jin, seeking revenge, breaks Jiang Ying's legs and confines her to a mental institution. Finally, she is tortured to death...

hiss.

Sophie gasped.

As the saying goes, enemies often meet on a narrow road. This is too narrow! Even when I come out to earn some extra money, I run into my enemies?

"I'm sorry sir, you've got the wrong person."

Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one.

Sophie shook her head in denial and turned and ran away.

Si Jin didn't give her any chance to escape. He raised his hand and pressed her against the stone wall behind him.

"Tell me, what bad things are you planning to do by following Mengru secretly?"

The man stared at the woman who was so close to him, with a cold chill in his dark eyes.

Sophie saw his hostility, but she didn't intend to waste her hard-earned magic power on this insignificant man.

She frowned, looked up at the violent man with a weak face, and spoke softly.

"Little brother, you hurt me."

The sweet voice gave Si Jin goosebumps.

What's wrong with this woman's brain?

"Oh, please let go. It's embarrassing with so many people watching."
