Chapter 447: Chapter 421: Really a Bad Egg
Yu Minglang was thinking of several ways to deal with her that wouldn’t hurt and felt proud, like a good man who would go against his own neck—no matter if it’s just for show, it is still a ruthless move!
Inside the room, Xiao Qian continued to persuade Professor Liu while he was still sulking, but after talking with her for a while, he seemed to have calmed down quite a bit.
“You girl really understand me. I can’t believe I let you wheedle me, I didn’t know you were so good at talking.”
When Xiao Qian chatted, she listened more than she talked, but her words were like acupuncture and touched the heart.
“I think we have a good relationship, teacher. I’m thinking of coming to you when I apply for graduate school.”
“With your current knowledge, I think you’ve already reached a master’s level.” It was hard to believe that a child just starting college could have such enlightenment. The more they talked, the more they liked her.
“What a pity you were taken by Yu Gangdan. How great it would have been if you could become my daughter-in-law. Qi Lajiao is so lucky. His son can marry such a lovely daughter-in-law even though he’s messed up. Unlike me, although I have a good daughter-in-law, my son couldn’t be alive to marry her…”
The teacher sighed sadly.
His son had been gone for so long, and he was still deep in grief, unable to let go.
“Not bad?” Xiao Qian caught a keyword.
The teacher said his daughter-in-law is not bad?
However, the information Rong Yuan gave her was that she was a very heartless woman who took Liu Shuang’s insurance money and married someone else.
Even Yu Minglang, by default, thought she was no good. Xiao Qiang was usually quite steady when it came to talking about other people.
But just now the teacher said his daughter-in-law was good? Did she misunderstand or misinterpret it?
Xiao Qian was about to ask further but heard voices coming from outside.
“How is that stubborn old lady from my Family doing?”
The teacher had just been sarcastically criticizing Uncle Liu, but when she heard his voice outside, her hands clenched into fists and her eyes flickered with joy. Of course, she instantly hid her emotions and pretended to complain unhappily.
“Who let him come, that old thing…”
Noticing Xiao Qian’s sneaky smile, Professor Liu put on a serious face, “Did you know about this?”
“Know what? I’m a good person.” Xiao Qian immediately made an innocent expression.
Professor Liu narrowed her eyes, intending to cross-examine the slippery little girl, but stopped when she heard the voices outside.
“Uncle Liu, Auntie Liu is out of danger now and will stay in the hospital for observation for a couple of days,” Yu Minglang answered.
“Dad, didn’t you say you wouldn’t come?” Liu Li looked so happy to see his dad.
“I came by airplane. How could your mom faint?”
“I argued with my mom…”
Liu Li’s voice was so small that it couldn’t be heard in the patient’s room. Uncle Liu was the only one talking. After a while, Liu Li let out a miserable cry, followed by Yu Minglang’s voice trying to break up the situation and the nurse giving a reminder.
“Patients’ families, please control your emotions and don’t make a scene in the hospital!”
“You little brat! I warned you not to upset your mother! And you still managed to get her hospitalized!”
After that, there was a loud bang, and it was unclear what Uncle Liu had kicked.
Unable to bear it any longer, Professor Liu quickly pulled out the needle in her hand. Xiao Qian couldn’t stop her in time, so she just watched the old lady pull out the needle and walk out quickly. Xiao Qian bent the needle to prevent the liquid from leaking and followed her out.
Outside of the room, Yu Minglang pulled Liu Li behind him, and with a smile, he tried to calm down Uncle Liu, “Uncle, calm down!”
“Yu Gangdan, get out of my way! I’ll even hit you if you piss me off!”
Uncle Liu was frightened out of his wits upon hearing that his wife, well, ex-wife, was in the hospital and rushed over anxiously.
When he arrived at the hospital and found out that she was fine, he was too embarrassed to enter her room and vented his anger on his son instead.
Professor Liu came out, saw the fire extinguisher lying to one side, knowing that it was the old man who had just kicked it, and sighed with relief. But seeing his angry face and his son hiding behind Yu Minglang with a fearful expression, she couldn’t hold her anger in.
“Xiao Liu, how are you feeling?” When Uncle Liu saw her coming out, he immediately restrained his anger and asked in the tone of a leader inspecting the situation.
“Old Liu, who gave you permission to hit my son?”
As soon as they heard this conversation, Xiao Qian’s shoulders shook slightly. Uncle Liu called the teacher Xiao Liu, and the teacher called Uncle Liu Old Liu. They both had the same last name – Liu. Could this be the romance unique to people of that era?
“He’s my son too. It’s only natural for me to discipline him.” He couldn’t help himself but speak rudely when they met, even though his heart was filled with concern for her wellbeing before seeing her.
Upon hearing this, Professor Liu wanted to flare up, but she caught sight of Yu Minglang, Chen Xiaoqian, and her son Liu Li in the corner of her eye, all with the expressions of watching a spectacle.
So she suppressed her anger, put on the style of a senior intellectual, and said haughtily.
“Let’s not take up public resources. We’ll discuss this inside.”
They entered the room one after the other, and Xiao Qian was bragging to Yu Minglang.
“See? My teacher has the quality of an intellectual. She never loses her temper in public places. Compared to you smelly men, always choosing to act like a gangster and kicking things around. If you break the fire extinguisher, you’ll have to pay for it! I hate people who vent their anger by smashing things – no skill at all!”
As soon as the words were out of her mouth, there was a loud bang from inside the room, like the sound of an infusion stand falling to the floor, followed by Uncle Liu’s pleading voice.
“Xiao Liu, let’s talk calmly, a true gentleman uses words, not violence— Ow!”
Yu Minglang raised his eyebrows, “Quality? Not losing temper?”
Xiao Qian was speechless, her teacher’s slap resounded throughout the room.
“My mom loves hitting my dad. This is domestic violence, but I know she’s just pretending and never really hits him. She always chose cheap things to break when venting her anger.”
Especially metal things, since they couldn’t be broken…
“I hate people who break things when they argue? No skill at all?” Yu Minglang repeated Xiao Qian’s words again.
Xiao Qian, embarrassed, didn’t know her teacher could play her so well. She couldn’t let this bad guy show off, so she reached out and twisted Yu Minglang’s waist with force.
“I don’t break things, I hit people, especially you, who have thick skin and strong bones!”
“Then I’ll also-”
Yu Minglang wanted to flirt with Xiao Qian but considering Liu Li was present, that kind of colorful language had to remain unspoken.
However, his eyes had already betrayed his intentions. Xiao Qian’s heart skipped a beat under his shameless gaze, what a big bad egg…
But it was this big bad egg she loved; it was fate and their unique romance, just like that old couple inside the room.
