Chapter 348 Playing the Schemer (shuhaige.net)



"You brat, stop eavesdropping from behind."

Zheng Yilan cursed viciously at the room on the left.

Li Haoxuan subconsciously turned around and saw Jinju open the door and walk out with her head down.

He raised an eyebrow. How did his mother find out?

"Mom, Haoxuan, I didn't mean to eavesdrop."

Jinju, stroking her large belly, stood demurely beside Li Haoxuan, and sure enough, the man's heart softened immediately.

Nobody said you were eavesdropping.

Before his mother could get angry, he quickly said, "Mom, we're talking about serious matters."

"Keep an eye on the work at the textile factory."

These days, buying or selling a job costs at least several hundred yuan. If Jinju had a job, he would have face.

Zheng Yilan rolled her eyes, not daring to argue with her son too much, and simply went into the kitchen to get busy.

"Haoxuan, what does Mom mean by this?"

For a moment, Jinju couldn't figure out what her mother-in-law was thinking. If she weren't pregnant, her mother-in-law would have really kicked her out.

The hospital dismissed her long ago after she became pregnant, since she wasn't a permanent employee.

Li Haoxuan asked mysteriously, "Have you forgotten who Mom loves the most?"

Jinju was momentarily dazed, then grinned.

As long as she takes good care of Li Haoxuan, he'll get her anything she wants, even the stars and the moon.

Li Aiqin walked quickly down the stairs. Aunt Mei came towards her. She subconsciously wanted to cover her face, but Aunt Mei walked up to her and greeted her directly.

"Xiaoqin, going to work?"

Aunt Mei's real name was Plum Blossom, and she was known throughout the building for her gossip.

With her eyes fixed on Xu Haifeng, she exaggeratedly said, "Wow, this young man is quite handsome and tall. Could he be your boyfriend, Xiaoqin?"

Li Aiqin's lips twitched. "Aunt Mei, are you blind? How can you call someone handsome?"

Xu Haifeng was overjoyed to hear this, "I am indeed dating Xiaoqin."

"What are you talking about? I'm not dating you."

Li Aiqin gave him a cold shoulder; he's so shameless!

Xu Haifeng's face froze, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes, but it was so fleeting that no one noticed.

The next second he resumed his gentlemanly demeanor, "Auntie, she's just joking."

"Yes, yes, girls are more sensitive."

Aunt Mei didn't seem to care much and continued to sing along with Xu Haifeng.

Li Aiqin pouted, her tone somewhat fierce, "Are you leaving or not? I'm going to be late for work."

After saying that, Xu Haifeng walked straight ahead, quickly said goodbye to Aunt Mei, and started walking to catch up with the beauty.

"Tsk tsk tsk, he said he didn't have a girlfriend, but he's bossing people around like crazy."

Aunt Mei stood there and sighed. She needed to find an opportunity to go to the Li family and find out the truth.

"Xiaoqin, you won't be late if you get on the bicycle."

Xu Haifeng pulled up her sleeve and walked to the bicycle.

Li Aiqin looked at the Phoenix brand bicycle; it was already a very good deal, but she still didn't like it.

But if she didn't sit down, more and more people would be leaving for work, and she would be unable to defend herself.

"Weren't you feeling uncomfortable a few days ago? So I specially installed a cushion for you. Try it out and see if it's comfortable."

The man's gesture warmed her heart; she felt cherished, which is why she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

Li Aiqin sat down as if possessed and whispered, "Let's go."

Xu Haifeng was overjoyed and quickly sat in the front seat. With a push of his foot, the car drove off.

He deliberately sped up, and Li Aiqin frowned in the cold wind and said, "Slow down."

"Xiaoqin, aren't you in a hurry? If you're afraid of falling, you can grab my clothes."

Xu Haifeng turned around and responded loudly, appearing particularly innocent.

But if you look closely, the gloom in his eyes is clearly visible.

Li Aiqin had a strange thought in her mind: could he have done it on purpose? But she dismissed it the next second.

This man doesn't have such a meticulous mind.

"Let's go quickly."

The car had been parked on the side of the road for a while, and passersby kept glancing at them. Li Aiqin lowered her head in embarrassment, but her hand involuntarily grabbed the man's clothes.

Xu Haifeng smiled with satisfaction, pushed off with his foot, and continued riding towards the hospital.

"Just leave me here."

Fifty meters from the hospital entrance, Li Aiqin quickly told him to stop the car.

The hospital is a place with lots of people and lots of gossip. If even a little bit of news gets inside, she can be the subject of gossip all day.

Xu Haifeng's eyes flickered. "Xiaoqin, we're not here yet, are we?"

“I’ll walk there myself.”

Li Aiqin got off the cushion, picked up her bag, and was about to leave when the man stopped her.

"Wait, here's breakfast. Take it and eat it."

When did you buy it?

Li Aiqin asked, puzzled.

Xu Haifeng scratched his head. "Before I went to your house, I bought two breakfasts to eat with you. Since you're in a hurry to get to work, you can take them to the hospital."

Li Aiqin took it in a daze. She really admired the man's thoughtfulness and suddenly felt that he wasn't so unacceptable after all.

Xu Haifeng took the opportunity to offer to pick her up from get off work in the afternoon.

This time, Li Aiqin did not refuse, but simply asked him to wait in a more distant place.

As soon as her mother-in-law left, Jinju urged her husband to go shopping.

"I heard a new clothing store opened, called something like 'Liren Yifang,' and the clothes are really beautiful. Would you like to come with me to check it out?"

Li Haoxuan took a drag of his cigarette and sneered, "You want me to be your ATM, don't you?"

Jinju didn't hesitate, "I'm pregnant with your child now, so I can't go out to work and naturally have no income. I can only rely on you."
