Three years later.
Dong Wenqiang noticed an extra man at his family's dinner table, and his gaze fell on Ruhua like a sharp sword.
Ru Hua pretended not to see, and looked at Ah Li.
Ali was holding chopsticks when she picked up a piece of braised pork rib for Xu Ze'an and said, "Eat more, my chef is very good at cooking."
Veins bulged on Dong Wenqiang's forehead instantly, and several new crossroads appeared on his forehead. He asked in a low, menacing tone, "Who is he?"
Ahri put down her chopsticks and said with a hint of fearlessness and spoiled arrogance, "My people."
"Your people?"
Dong Wenqiang felt like he was going to die of anger. He hadn't even settled down yet, but his little sister had already found someone. How old was she?
In short, it was his fault for not disciplining her properly, and he was going to... impose family discipline.
"Ruhua, go and get the family rules."
As a result, Ah Li hid behind Xu Ze'an and pulled Ru Hua over, saying, "Brother, what are you doing! I just saw that you were fighting alone and it was hard for you, so I found you a helper."
Xu Ze'an was initially happy that Ah Li said he was her man, but in the blink of an eye, he became his brother's helper.
Dong Wenqiang said coldly, "No need."
Ali said sadly, "But you work so hard every day, leaving early and returning late, your feet barely touching the ground. I don't even have time to have a proper meal with you. I feel sorry for you."
In order to avoid being beaten, Ahri said that she could also be a good younger sister who loves her older brother.
The main thing is that the eldest brother of the Dong family really hurts when he hits someone.
Dong Wenqiang's lips twitched slightly, and he said, "Is that really true?"
Ah Li peeked out from behind Xu Ze'an, her bright eyes sparkling, and said, "Yes."
As long as you avoid the female lead and don't mess with her, even a villainous female supporting character can live a good life.
"Glib-tongued".
Dong Wenqiang was still very angry. She thought that by saying a few soft words, she could escape a beating, but that was impossible.
So, Ru Hua didn't go to get it; someone else did.
The Dong family's family rules included a custom-made, extra-thick ruler that could make someone scream for miles around.
"Big brother, are you really going to hit me?"
Ahri's eyes instantly filled with tears.
Dong Wenqiang coldly and ruthlessly said, "Every family has its rules."
Ahri felt even more aggrieved. "But what did I do wrong? All I did was make a friend!"
"You're so busy every day that you don't have time to care about me or spend time with me. Now that I've finally made some friends, you want to punish me like family. I hate you!"
Ahri covered her face and ran out sadly.
Dong Wenqiang held the ruler and watched Ali's departing figure.
"Hey, Sister Li, you haven't eaten yet."
Ru Hua chased after him for a couple of steps and called out twice, but couldn't get him to come back. She sighed helplessly, but secretly gave Ali a thumbs up in her heart. "Brilliant! He's not so tough anymore; he knows how to use tears now."
At this moment, Xu Ze'an walked past Dong Wenqiang, gave him a cold glance, and went to chase after Ali.
Ru Hua looked at the dishes on the table and whispered, "She knew you were coming back today, so she specially asked someone to prepare your favorite dishes. That person was called over to taste the dishes."
Dong Wenqiang sat down and said, "Stop acting. I still know what she's been doing all these years."
Ru Hua chuckled dryly, showing no embarrassment at being exposed, and said, "Then, young master, I'll go get you some food."
Seeing Ru Hua enter the kitchen, and then looking at the several bowls of untouched rice, Dong Wenqiang called Ali.
No one answered.
He moved his fingers and sent a message: "Are you really planning to starve yourself?"
Ali stood at the door, put her phone back in her pocket, and asked Xu Ze'an, "Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to go back now?"
"Won't."
Xu Ze'an thought she was really crying, but when he chased after her, he found that she wasn't sad at all, and was even happy that she hadn't been hit.
He didn't tell her that she didn't actually have to run away; if her older brother really dared to hit her, he would take the hit for her.
"Let's go back then, you weren't full either." Ah Li took Xu Ze'an's hand and went back.
Xu Zean grasped Ah Li's hand. "Yes, let's go back together."
After returning home, the four of them sat down for a meal.
Ru Hua originally intended to leave quietly, but Ah Li stopped her.
Ru Hua sat down to eat again, indicating that she was a person who had seen a lot, and this was nothing compared to her. Therefore, she only ate the dish that was within her reach.
Dong Wenqiang ignored Xu Zean and let him eat.
Ali glanced at Dong Wenqiang's face a few times and found that he seemed to be no longer angry. She then put vegetables and meat into Dong Wenqiang's bowl.
Dong Wenqiang would also help Ali make soup.
The scene just now, where she suddenly started crying, ran away, and even threatened to hit someone, seemed unreal.
After the meal, Dong Wenqiang asked Ali to go to his study with him.
Ah Li was very well-behaved. After following Dong Wenqiang inside, she even looked at the ruler that Ru Hua was holding.
Xu Zean and others waited at the door of the study, while Ru Hua also leaned over the door to listen to the sounds inside.
However, the study is very well soundproofed, and there is no sound at all.
In the study.
Dong Wenqiang sat behind his desk and said, "Come to the company with me later."
"oh."
"By the way, do you know An Yinghe?"
"Yes, we know each other. We were classmates in high school."
"She said you had bullied her with your men before, and now her man is standing up for her and has gone against our Dong family."
After Dong Wenqiang finished speaking, he laughed first. People nowadays still do things like risking everything for a woman, but the Shangguan family is just like that.
"Wouldn't that be a lot of trouble?"
"Won't."
Dong Wenqiang leaned back in his executive chair, pointed to the documents on the table, and said, "Take these back with you. When you join the company, you can't be completely ignorant. These are the most basic documents."
Ahri's face fell. "That was way too fast."
Dong Wenqiang said with a half-smile, "You can ask your friend for help."
Ali slowly walked up to Dong Wenqiang and asked, "Brother, did you already know that I brought Xu Zean back?"
Dong Wenqiang laughed. With so many bodyguards, servants, and cooks in the house, plus surveillance cameras, he wasn't blind, deaf, or mute. Didn't he know to ask someone?
"You're really oblivious. He's been rescued by you for so long, and his father hasn't come looking for him. Don't you find that strange?"
Ahri muttered to herself, "It is a bit strange."
However, under Dong Wenqiang's ambiguous gaze, Ah Li belatedly realized and said, "So, brother, you're the one who took care of them?"
Dong Wenqiang said, "I am a law-abiding citizen and I do not do anything illegal."
He paid money to buy Xu Ze'an from that person.
His sister had finally taken a liking to a new and interesting gadget, and he wanted to buy it for her to play with.
Once his sister gets tired of it, then this thing can be thrown away.
