"Can you do it?"
After staring at Gao Churou for a moment, Wang Qian tentatively asked.
He did feel somewhat ashamed of what Qiu Minxia had done.
but,
He didn't want to end up with nothing because of Qiu Minxia's decision.
"If I say yes, will you stop helping me?" Qiu Minxia asked rhetorically.
Wang Qian's breath hitched.
After a quick assessment, he shook his head. "No, I was the one who took advantage of you first. Even if you don't keep your promise, I will still help you."
"Okay, you said it yourself?"
Qiu Minxia sneered, "I hope you keep your word!"
"in addition……"
She glanced back and forth between Wang Qian and Gao Churou, and sneered, "The relationship between the two of you must be more than just casual, right?"
Gao Churou panicked instantly, her voice trembling with fear, "No, Sister Xia, don't talk nonsense. Wang Qian and I are just ordinary friends, and he's already married with children. How could I possibly be with him..."
As she spoke, she herself couldn't continue.
What she said was indeed true, but with her blustering tone, it sounded like she was trying to cover something up.
Wang Qian hurriedly defended himself, saying, "Sister Xia, my relationship with Sister Rou is not what you think."
Qiu Minxia's expression shifted for a moment, then she waved her hand impatiently, "Sigh, I can bear my own misfortune, I won't get involved in your affairs."
"but……"
She changed the subject, "As for whether I'll help you or not, I'll decide after you help me, okay?"
"good!"
This time, Wang Qian answered very readily.
He found it hard to accept placing his hopes on someone else's whim.
But since he had done something wrong first, even if Qiu Minxia was unwilling to help him in the end, he had no choice but to accept it.
Most importantly, he also came up with a backup plan that he could use.
"Since you've agreed, you can make the arrangements yourself from now on. I will do my best to cooperate!"
...
the next day.
Inside Jiang Zhenghua's private garden.
"Brother Huang, that Yang Chunlan is quite pretty, why didn't you do *that* to her yesterday?"
Inside the pavilion, Jiang Zhenghua, dressed in a bathrobe, lay on a recliner, holding a cup of tea, and asked with a half-smile, "Could it be that she's not your type?"
I guess so!
Huang Bo shook his head and chuckled dryly, "Mainly because I have someone I like, and in that area, I'm a little... reserved."
"Can't let go?"
Jiang Zhenghua laughed heartily, "Looking at your carefree attitude, I thought you were a master of romance, but I didn't expect you to be so reserved in this area?"
"Isn't this normal?"
Huang Bo shrugged and said with a wry smile, "Although I am frivolous, I am still young and don't have much experience in this area. In front of people I don't like, I am still a little... well?"
As he said this, he gave him a knowing look.
Jiang Zhenghua didn't think much of it and just said, "Alright, you'll get used to it eventually. If there's a chance, I'll find you some even better-looking girls. There's bound to be one you like."
"Then thank you in advance, Brother Jiang!" Huang Bo hurriedly said.
Just then, a man rushed in, panting, and said, "President Jiang, something terrible has happened!"
"What is it?" Jiang Zhenghua asked instinctively.
"Someone from the court just came; they want to see you!"
The person who came to report was Jiang Zhenghua's temporary new secretary, named Zhang Lei.
She has a decent figure, but her face is rather ordinary.
Jiang Zhenghua had no interest whatsoever; he only asked the other party to come so that they could help him manage his affairs.
"What? People from the court are looking for me?"
A hint of unease flashed in Jiang Zhenghua's eyes. "Did they say what they wanted to see me about?"
“They said they would only tell you after seeing you in person!” Zhang Lei said cautiously.
Beside him, Huang Bo's heart stirred, and a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes.
When the court officials arrived, he almost guessed what they meant.
But on the surface, he pretended to be surprised and said, "Brother Jiang, the court is looking for you. It must be related to legal matters. Have you done something wrong recently?"
"No!"
Jiang Zhenghua, though outwardly fierce, said weakly, "I'm a legitimate businessman, I've never..."
He couldn't continue speaking halfway through his sentence.
Because he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have done many shameful things.
If this is related to something, then it could be troublesome.
Thinking of this, he grabbed Huang Bo's hand as if he were his own brother, "Brother Huang, if I get into any legal trouble, you have to help me!"
"Don't worry, Brother Jiang. I may be unable to help with other matters, but when it comes to legal issues, I can turn black into white," Huang Bo said with a confident smile.
"That's good!"
Jiang Zhenghua finally felt relieved and said to his secretary, "Xiao Lei, bring them in."
"Yes, Mr. Jiang!"
Zhang Lei responded and immediately turned to leave.
Sure enough, not long after, he came in with a group of court personnel.
"Excuse me, which one of you is Jiang Zhenghua?"
The middle-aged man at the head of the group spoke very rudely. Even though he knew Jiang Zhenghua was that old man, he still asked him the same question as if it were just a formality.
"That's me!"
Jiang Zhenghua glanced at Huang Bo, and only after receiving a nod from the latter did he muster his courage and ask, "May I ask what brings you here to see me, esteemed leaders?"
"Your wife, Qiu Minxia, is suing you for adultery and cohabitation with another woman. You must be in court at 9:00 AM tomorrow for the hearing."
