Not So Kind_1Xiao Ming nearly choked to death on that chicken soup, coughing for a while before saying incredulously, "Goddamn it! How many times do I have to say 'I only love my wife' before you believe me?"
"I've never doubted your feelings for your sister-in-law. But you know, a man can love his wife and still have affairs without conflict."
Shen Siyi said this with utter seriousness, clearly believing it to be true.
Xiao Ming shook his head and said speechlessly, "Next time you talk such nonsense, remember to stay away from me. I don't want to be drowned by the spit of the female compatriots."
Shen Siyi let out a sly chuckle, and then said seriously, "All jokes aside, bro, it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, so don't touch Yu. After all, we're all friends, and it wouldn't look good to turn against each other.
Besides, if the Yun Family found out, you'd be in for a whole lot of trouble."
Xiao Ming was utterly surprised: "Just before I saw you following her around like a love-struck fool, why does it sound like you're not interested in her all of a sudden?"
"How could I not be interested in such a beautiful girl?"
Shen Siyi scratched his head, "But I know my place. Yu wouldn't even glance at someone like me, and the Yun Family would never marry off their daughter to the son of a businessman.
My dad's trying to make something out of nothing, thinking he could climb the ranks through me, which is just a fool's dream."
Xiao Ming laughed heartily, clinking glasses with him.
"Anyone who calls Shen Siyi a fool in the future gets slapped by me!"
As soon as he put down his glass, Shen Siyi's phone rang. After he answered, he looked at Xiao Ming and said, "Bro, your sister-in-law is at the Dachuan Family Hospital right now."
Before he knew it, the phone was in Xiao Ming's hand.
"Dachuan, this is Xiao Ming. My wife is okay, right?"
"Look at what you're saying, Ming! How could there be a problem when your sister-in-law is on our turf? It was a minor trouble, and it's all solved now, you can rest assured!"
Xiao Ming's eyebrows raised: "What trouble?"
"This... I should first apologize to you, it was an error on the part of our staff, and I have already fired them."
Zhang Dachuan briefly explained the situation, then added, "I'm really sorry, Ming, for upsetting your sister-in-law. When you have time, I'll treat you to a meal, please give me the chance to apologize properly."
Xiao Ming could tell that this call, though ostensibly an apology, was actually a subtle boast.
After all, even if he was unreasonable, he couldn't blame the mistake of a nurse on Zhang Dachuan.
Of course, the little scheme was also to get closer to him, so he didn't mind.𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
"It's Shen Siyi's brotherhood, no need to be so formal. I owe you one for today,
Let's talk about the specifics face to face, I'm on my way now."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ming returned it to Shen Siyi, stood up, and as he headed for the door he said, "Looks like I'll have to accompany your sister-in-law this afternoon, so I won't be able to help you with the counter-betting agreement.
I'll call Yu in a bit and have her send someone over."
"Sister-in-law is alright, right?" Shen Siyi asked, following him.
"She's fine. Zhang Dachuan is quite resourceful. I plan to count him in on tonight's investment as a way to make up for him getting slashed by Mengmeng."
"Hey! That guy is lucky indeed. During the race that day, out of everyone there, only he and I bet on Yamaha to win.
And you can't always ride a sports bike to take your sister-in-law home, so just take my car instead."
After some thought, Xiao Ming agreed. But when he saw the valet bring up a Guste, it was already too late to refuse.
"You sure don't do things low-key, do you?"
"Why should I be low-key about a car I've won fair and square?"
Shen Siyi grinned mischievously, "When I transferred the ownership, I made sure to keep the original plate number just to show everyone in Longyin City. Cao Bangxi enjoys sleeping with other people's wives, right? I'll drive his beloved car!"
"Look at your lack of ambition."
Xiao Ming shook his head as he got into the car, "If you end up eating up Cao Family's Dabang, I bet your tail will be wagging up to the sky, right?"
"What?" Shen Siyi clung excitedly to the car door, "Ming, you... you're planning to take over Dabang Group?"
"If Cao Bangxi dares to target my wife, do you think I'd let him off just by making him wet his pants?
I'm not that kind-hearted."
With that, Xiao Ming closed the door and drove away.
Shen Siyi stood there for a moment before shivering suddenly and muttering to himself, rubbing his arms, "God really is God, smiling yet so scary. I need to learn well."
Xiao Ming arrived at the hospital and met Zhang Dachuan outside the ultrasound room.
"Ming, I'm really sorry! I had no idea your sister-in-law would come, otherwise I would've definitely greeted her at the front door early on."
Zhang Dachuan still started with an apology, making a full show of it.
Xiao Ming smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "We're friends, no need for such formalities.
Two things: one, prepare five hundred thousand, transfer it to me before nine tonight, and I'll return no less than ten times that in five days.
Second, remember to have someone watch the rooftop tomorrow morning to prevent any accidents."
Both requests were more baffling than the other, but after the underground race experience, Zhang Dachuan was no longer that surprised, just gravely asked, "What kind of accident?"
Xiao Ming shook his head, "Can't say now. Just make sure the rooftop isn't unattended before noon. Otherwise, your hospital could be in big trouble."
