Chapter 58 - 58: Does It Have Anything to Do with You?
“Mr. Qi…” Pei Yan looked at the water stains on Qi Shenbai’s face in a daze and could not help but tremble in fear. Mr. Xu was really pushing his luck now. What if he actually hurt his boss?!
Qi Shenbai’s cold features were expressionless. He raised his hand and gestured for Pei Yan to leave first.
Pei Yan nodded slightly. Before he left, he did not forget to close the door. However, he did not walk too far. He carefully pressed his ear against the door and listened to the movements inside.
If a fight really broke out inside, he could rush in and stop it immediately. If Mr. Xu actually broke Mr. Qi, Pei Yan would lose his position as the head secretary!
Xu Zhengyang, who was always smiling cheekily, was not smiling at all right now. He gritted his teeth and glared at the man in front of him. If looks could kill, he would have cut Qi Shenbai into pieces by now.
Qi Shenbai reached for a tissue paper and wiped the water off his face.
“Qi Shenbai, do you really think that 1 won’t fight you?!” Xu Zhengyang said fiercely, enunciating every word. “It’s fine if you f*cking tricked my sister into getting a marriage certificate, but you even brought her to Ireland to get it! Are you f*cking crazy?!”
“I want to be with her.” Qi Shenbai looked up at him and said seriously, “I’m confident that I can take good care of Jiaojiao.”
Xu Zhengyang could not help but mock him, “Who do you think you are? Why does my sister have to marry you just because you want to be with her?!”
Qi Shenbai looked at him firmly and did not say a word.
“Qi Shenbai, don’t tell me that you really like my sister. There are so many other fish in the sea! You’re my friend, not my brother-in-law!” Xu Zhengyang became even angrier when Qi Shenbai did not say anything.
Qi Shenbai casually threw the wet tissue into the trash can. His lowered eyes were firm and calm.
“Xu Zhengyang, I’m not asking for your opinion. Jiaojiao is now my wife. Our union is legally recognized.”
He had already guessed that Xu Zhengyang would overreact, so he had no choice but to use this shady method to legalize his marriage with Xu Jiaojiao. Other than that, he was confident that Xu Zhengyang knew his character well enough.
“F*ckyou,” Xu Zhengyang cursed in a low voice. “If murder isn’t illegal, 1 really want to kill you now.”
“You wouldn’t.” Qi Shenbai’s tone was firm. “If you kill me, Jiaojiao will become a widow. You wouldn’t do that to her.”
“You cunning old fox!” Xu Zhengyang could not help but curse. He was furious but helpless. After all, this jerk was his boss and his brother-in-law!
“Qi Shenbai, I’ll only tell you this once. If you dare to touch a single strand of Jiaojiao’s hair, I’ll fight you to the death.” Xu Zhengyang warned, “If it comes to that, all bets are off!”
Qi Shenbai took out another sheet of tissue paper and wiped the water on the table methodically. He said unhurriedly, “I’ll leave everything to her. I won’t force her to do anything she doesn’t like.”
In other words, unless Xu Jiaojiao was willing, he would not do anything to Xu Jiaojiao.
“Don’t use your capitalist methods to scheme against my sister!”
“My feelings for her are true. As for Jiaojiao’s feelings, I won’t use any tricks to influence her.” The two of them were officially husband and wife now. As for Jiaojiao’s feelings…
He had plenty of time to wait. There was no hurry.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Xu Zhengyang let out a shaky breath and gave him one last warning, “You’d better clean up that mess of yours. If you make Jiaojiao sad, you can forget about our friendship.”
Qi Shenbai’s eyes darkened, and he did not say a word.
Xu Zhengyang turned around and walked to the door to pull it open. Pei Yan, who was eavesdropping at the door, almost lost his balance and fell into his arms. He dodged to the side in disdain.
Pei Yan grabbed the door handle in time so that he did not fall flat on his face. He smiled at Xu Zhengyang awkwardly.
Xu Zhengyang was in a bad mood and even found him an eyesore. He glared at him angrily and turned back to say to Qi Shenbai, whose eyes were lowered, “That cup cost 200 yuan. Remember to transfer the money to me on WeChat!”
Damn it, he had specially asked someone to buy the Christmas limited cup from Starbucks last time.
Xu Jiaojiao had applied for a week’s leave from school, but she had returned to China a few days earlier than she had expected. After taking a shower, she rested at home for a while before returning to school in the afternoon.
Regarding the rumors on the Internet, the school was also in an uproar. Some people were skeptical and immediately surrounded Xu Jiaojiao after class to interrogate her about the truth.
Before Xu Jiaojiao could explain, she heard Su Luo’s impatient voice. “So what if it’s real or fake? Does it have anything to do with you?”
Su Lu was a year older than Xu Jiao jiao and came from a well-to-do family. She was usually unrestrained in school, and no one dared to provoke her. As soon as the crowd saw her, they dispersed..
