"Where are we inferior to her!" Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, the women's expressions changed instantly. They wanted to be angry, but seeing Qin Yu's face, they couldn't muster any anger.
I just think he said that on purpose because his wife was around.
"Let's go." Qin Yu put his arm around Xia Lan and led her to the office.
Inside the office, Director Wu was smiling as he looked at the data in his hand. The number of tickets sold today was several times higher than usual, all thanks to Qin Yu.
What a great comrade! I never expected Qin Yu to be so good-looking. Making him the ticket inspector was definitely the right choice.
These are all achievements he made. When the report is submitted at the end of the month, the boss will definitely think highly of him.
Just as he was thinking about Qin Yu, Qin Yu brought in a female colleague. Director Liu looked at Xia Lan's striking appearance and smiled knowingly.
"Comrade Qin Yu, do you need to use my office?" Director Wu looked Xia Lan up and down and walked over with a smile.
Looking at Director Liu's smile, Qin Yu and Xia Lan felt disgusted.
What does Director Liu mean? What does he think her relationship with Qin Yu is?
"This is my wife." A fierce glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes. Especially when Director Liu was sizing up Xia Lan, the gloom in Qin Yu's heart made his fists itch, and he wanted to punch him in the face.
Director Liu looked at Qin Yu in surprise. What had he just said?
Is this his wife?
"Oh, hello, hello, I'm the director here, my surname is Liu." Director Liu extended his hand to Xia Lan and said warmly.
Xia Lan glanced at Director Liu with disgust, and Qin Yu took the initiative to shake Director Liu's hand.
"Director Liu, you're too kind. May I leave work now?"
"sure."
Director Liu quickly stepped aside so that Qin Yu could clock out.
After clocking in, Qin Yu left the office with Xia Lan, only turning back to nod to Director Liu before leaving.
As Qin Yu and Xia Lan left the office, there were still quite a few female colleagues lingering in the movie theater. Just as Qin Yu was about to pull Xia Lan along quickly, a hand stopped him.
"Kid, I'll take you through the back door." Old Bai grabbed Qin Yu's clothes and led him aside.
"This is my wife, Xia Lan. Wife, this is Old Bai."
Qin Yu introduced Xia Lan.
"Hello, Mr. Bai," Xia Lan said with a smile.
"I never expected your scruffy face to suddenly turn into a handsome young man. You have the same style as me back in the day. Not bad, not bad." Old Bai said approvingly when he saw Qin Yu's face.
"I never imagined that you, with that slovenly face, could actually marry such a beautiful wife."
Qin Yu smiled but said nothing, and took Xia Lan's hand.
The smile in Lao Bai's eyes deepened, and he led the two out through the back door.
"Thank you, Elder Bai," Qin Yu and Xia Lan said gratefully.
"Alright, don't be so polite with me. I'm just an old man sweeping the floor." Old Bai waved his hand, signaling the two to hurry up and leave!
"That Director Liu just now..." On her way home, Xia Lan felt extremely disgusted whenever she thought about the look Director Liu had given her.
"Next time you see him, stay away from him." Qin Yu shared the same sentiment.
The way Director Liu looked at Xia Lan...
He deserves a beating.
"Okay." Xia Lan nodded obediently. Even if she was asked to get close, she wouldn't go near that lewd man.
"By the way, Brother Yu, Minister Yang gave me two days off..." Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu and blinked.
“Perfect timing. We’ll look for a house tomorrow, then go back to the village and bring our things over.” Qin Yu should have gone back, but he didn’t because of Xia Lan.
“Okay.” Xia Lan’s eyes lit up; that small room was indeed too small.
As Qin Yu led Xia Lan back through the alley, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him. In an instant, Qin Yu pulled Xia Lan behind him and shielded her.
A long stick fell from beside Qin Yu, hitting the ground with a 'duang' sound.
Xia Lan's expression changed drastically. If Qin Yu hadn't turned to the side, he would have hit her.
"You're pretty arrogant, kid. You walk through my territory and think we don't exist..." The thug sneered, picked up a wooden stick, raised his head and grabbed Qin Yu's collar. However, since he was only up to Qin Yu's shoulder, the feeling was obviously different.
It's like a child threatening an adult with a stick.
Xia Lan would have laughed if he hadn't been holding a wooden stick.
"What did you say?" Qin Yu coldly glanced at the thugs. There were three people behind him, who were obviously the ones who had been following him and Xia Lan.
"What did you say? I was sitting there just a few days ago, and you guys just walked right past without even glancing at me? What do you take us for?" The thug threatened, placing a wooden stick on Qin Yu's shoulder.
"Too short, I didn't see it." Qin Yu ignored the wooden stick on his shoulder and sneered.
"You little brat, you're asking for it, aren't you!" The thug steeled himself and was about to hit Qin Yu on the head with a wooden stick.
"Brother Yu!" Xia Lan cried out in alarm. "Be careful."
Qin Yu calmly grabbed the wooden stick with one hand, twisted it, and the thug's arm hurt, causing him to drop the stick instantly. Qin Yu held the stick in his hand and looked at the four people in front of him.
"You dare hit me, kid? Do you know who we are?" the thug said menacingly when he saw Qin Yu holding a wooden stick.
The other three also gathered around.
"Kid, just apologize to us and that'll be enough. Why are you being so stubborn?"
"Do you know who we guys are? If you run into us, you'll have to crawl on your knees."
"I advise you to be sensible and hand over the money, then everything will be fine. You have to make things like this, which is causing trouble for everyone."
Qin Yu looked at the four people in front of him. In the shadows where Xia Lan couldn't see, the sinister look in Qin Yu's eyes was fully revealed.
But the four of them, oblivious to their own mortality, spotted Xia Lan behind Qin Yu and their eyes lit up.
"Don't say we're bullying you. If you want this, we'll let you go if you let that pretty girl behind you play with us."
When Qin Yu heard them look at Xia Lan, his cold face suddenly turned icy, his eyes dark and deep, filled with turbulent emotions.
"Wife..." Qin Yu called out to Xia Lan.
Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu. "Brother Yu?"
"Be good, close your eyes," Qin Yu said softly.
"Oh, I've closed them." Xia Lan reached out and covered her eyes.
The next second, I heard several sounds of wooden sticks hitting my body. Each blow landed squarely on my flesh, and it sounded painful.
The person who was hit seemed to have their mouth gagged and couldn't make a sound. Xia Lan only heard a few muffled groans, and then everything returned to calm.
After a while, even the muffled groans became fainter.
Xia Lan, fearing that Qin Yu had killed someone, quickly called out, "Brother Yu!"
"...Hmm?" Qin Yu's deep voice sounded in front of Xia Lan, and Xia Lan felt Qin Yu walking towards her.
"Can you open your eyes now?" Xia Lan felt Qin Yu take her right hand and pull her outside.
