Wang Peng was drunk, but his mind was still clear. He was lying on the bed chatting with Hu Mingyue.
"Little sister, call Du Lei or Hu Qing and ask them to come and take care of me."
Hu Mingyue rolled her eyes. "Can't I take care of you? What are you afraid of? Are you going to make a scene while drunk?"
"Not at all, haha," Wang Peng said with a laugh. "My mind is perfectly clear; I won't do anything reckless after drinking."
"Really?" Hu Mingyue took off her coat, revealing her perfect figure, and held up three fingers. "How many is this?"
“That’s the third point.” Wang Peng shook his head. “Let’s get down to business. I’m offering 60,000 yuan to buy Zhou Dahai’s shares. Do you think he’ll sell?”
Hu Mingyue nodded. "He hasn't lost all his money yet. He'll sell it when he's desperate to lose more."
Wang Peng rolled over forcefully, lay face down on the bed, and felt his mind go blank.
Hu Mingyue reached out and massaged his temples, saying softly, "Don't worry, I'll get it for you if you want it."
"Let things take their natural course, don't use extreme measures." Wang Peng yawned and added, "No rush, take it slow."
His mind went blank again, and he quickly lost consciousness, falling asleep on the bed.
"Wang Peng, if you introduce me to another boyfriend, I'll cut you off!" Hu Mingyue said fiercely, making a peace sign with her fingers.
The only response she received was snoring.
Hu Mingyue smiled slightly, slipped on her slippers, got into bed, and forcefully turned him over so that he lay flat on the bed.
Take off his clothes, go back to the living room to clean up the dinner, and then call his mother, Hu Juan.
"Mom, are you working overtime today? When are you coming home?"
"That brat is suddenly showing concern for her mom, there must be something going on." Hu Juan laughed on the phone. "Go ahead, what is it?"
"It's nothing," Hu Mingyue said. "I just wanted to ask what you'd like to eat for dinner."
After chatting for a few minutes, Hu Mingyue hung up the phone and then called her stepfather, Wang Song.
"Dad, where are you? Are you coming home for dinner tonight?" She heard the baby crying on the phone.
"Mingyue, haha." Wang Song laughed on the phone. "I'm at your older brother's house, taking care of Jiye. What's up?"
Hu Mingyue said, "Dad, actually my mom loves candlelight dinners the most. You can have a romantic dinner with her."
"Romantic?" Wang Song was a little confused. "I don't understand this either, how do you do it?"
“Go to the Manhattan Western restaurant and order a set menu. They’ll take care of everything for you,” Hu Mingyue said. “Dad, life needs a little spice.”
Just then, Li Mingzhu's voice came through the phone: "Mingyue, where is your older brother? I called him, but he didn't answer."
Hu Mingyue hesitated for two seconds, then plopped down on the sofa: "I don't know either. I should go find Zhou Dahai for a drink."
There was a two-second silence on the phone before Li Mingzhu said softly, "Mingyue, give me Zhou Dahai's phone number."
Hu Mingyue was taken aback, and immediately recited Zhou Dahai's phone number.
Li Mingzhu chuckled lightly: "Mingyue, your sister-in-law has been through this before. Before doing certain things, you should consider the consequences."
Hu Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, and she said guiltily, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."
“I was just saying it offhand, you don’t seem to mind,” Li Mingzhu said. “Mingyue, if you hear anything about Wang Peng, let me know immediately.”
"Yes, I will." Hu Mingyue hung up the phone, her heart pounding like a deer.
She felt that Li Mingzhu had guessed her thoughts but didn't want to stop her, which instead made her hesitant.
She returned to the bedroom, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently stroked Wang Peng's hair.
Looking at the sleeping person, Hu Mingyue took out her phone and called her assistant.
The assistant's voice came from the phone: "Mr. Hu, what is it?"
Hu Mingyue said in a deep voice, "Brother Peng wants to buy Zhou Dahai's Brilliant shares. His offer is 50,000. Can you help me secure it?"
“Okay, you’ll be with me for a month,” the assistant said. “Mr. Hu, is there anything else you need?”
"Half a month," Hu Mingyue said. "No matter what methods you use, you must take it down within half a month, understand?"
"Understood, I guarantee I'll complete the task." The assistant hung up the phone.
Just then, Wang Peng's phone rang, vibrating as it rang.
Hu Mingyue stared at her phone until it stopped ringing, then she decisively turned it off.
"Brother Peng, I'm sorry, but I want you to support me for the rest of my life."
She gritted her teeth, slowly took off her clothes, picked up the liquor on the table, and drank half a bottle in one go.
Soon, her vision and consciousness began to blur, and she suddenly buried her face in Wang Peng's arms and fell asleep.
Outside his house, a middle-aged man turned around, went downstairs, and took out his phone to call Du Lei.
In the cozy residential community, baby Wang Jiye is already asleep.
"This kid is really heavy, he's made my back ache." Wang Song rubbed his aching back and looked at his beloved grandson with a smile.
"My dear in-law, you should go back and rest. I can take care of things here." Duan Cuilu rubbed her arm as well. "Jiye is getting heavier and heavier."
"Okay, Hu Juan will be off work soon, I should go home and cook too." Wang Song packed his things and prepared to leave.
Li Mingzhu stopped him, "Dad, didn't Mingyue ask you to invite Aunt Hu to a candlelight dinner?"
"Oh dear, I almost forgot." Wang Song slapped his forehead and said, "I'm not going home, I'm going straight to a Western restaurant."
Li Mingzhu saw him off and couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Just then, her phone rang, and she went to the study to answer it.
"Sister-in-law, this is Du Lei. My men have sent word that Brother Peng got drunk at Mingyue's place, and he and Mingyue... were alone together."
Li Mingzhu chuckled softly; this outcome was within her expectations. "Lei Zi, is the news true?" she added.
“It should be true,” Du Lei affirmed. “My people contacted Zhou Dahai, and he said that Brother Peng drank about eight liang of baijiu, so he must be drunk.”
"Sister-in-law, what should we do? Should we stop it?" Du Lei added.
“There’s no need.” Li Mingzhu shook her head. “Let nature take its course. Mingyue is such a stubborn girl.”
"I understand. Sister-in-law, call me if you need anything," Du Lei said, then hung up the phone.
Li Mingzhu stood up and paced back and forth in the study. After a few minutes, she made a long-distance call to Li Mengjiao.
The call connected, and the two chatted for a few minutes.
Before Li Mingzhu could speak, Li Mengjiao asked, "Sister Mingzhu, have you encountered a difficult problem?"
"Hmm, it's a bit tricky." Li Mingzhu shook her head slightly as she recounted Hu Mingyue's little scheme.
Upon hearing this, Li Mengjiao burst out laughing. "Don't worry, Mingyue still has some self-respect. If Brother Peng is completely drunk, Mingyue won't take the initiative to have sex with him."
Li Mingzhu had a bit of a headache. "I'm worried that when Brother Peng sobers up and sees Mingyue lying next to him, he'll be scared half to death, haha..."
In the end, Li Mingzhu couldn't hold back anymore.
Li Mengjiao said, "No, Brother Peng is a smart man, he will definitely be able to guess her little tricks."
Hearing this, Li Mingzhu felt relieved, but also a little disgusted.
She shook her head. "It seems I need to give Hu Mingyue a talking-to."
