Chapter 1070: Lurking Near the Ji Family
Fortunately, Brother has returned.
"Qingxiang, you finally returned." Madam Chen changed who she was hugging, and continued to cry.
Zhu Qingxiang was very embarrassed; his younger brother was still right there.
He attempted to push Madam Chen away: "Madam, please don't be like this, calm down." But she wouldn't listen, holding on tightly, and he couldn't push her away no matter what.
"Sob sob sob, I have no one to rely on now, only you two. You cannot abandon me, you cannot abandon me, promise me, alright?"
Madam Chen's eyes were filled with tears, and she stared at Zhu Qingxiang pitifully.
"You won't abandon me, right? We have shared life and death, and we have the most intimate relationship; you definitely won't abandon me, right?"
The thing that made him most embarrassed was being spoken of so brazenly.
Zhu Qingxiang was extremely embarrassed, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"I'm going out for a bit."
Zhu Qingrui went out, out of sight and out of mind, and also to avoid everyone being embarrassed.
……
Shi Ran and Qi Heng returned to A Country, and the Zhu Qingxiang brothers had run away again; based on the brothers' consistent behavior, Shi Youxuan judged that they would not return to L Country in the short term.
There was nothing else going on here for the moment, so Sheng Hanyu and his wife prepared to return to their country!
However, there was still one difficult problem that hadn't been solved—Wang Yingzhi.
Her destination hadn't been arranged yet, and it seemed that no arrangement was appropriate.
This woman was like a hedgehog; whoever was close to her would have bad luck.
When dealing with Zhu Qingrui, using her was quite satisfying, but with no enemies for the time being, Wang Yingzhi was the biggest enemy!
These past few days, with Shi Youxuan suppressing her, she had been able to restrain herself slightly, but she had still put the Qi Family through a lot of trouble.
Relying on the fact that she had saved Qi Heng, Wang Yingzhi played a key role and acted everywhere like a meritorious official of the Qi Family!
At first, she only demanded good food and drink, and some rewards.
Later, seeing that her requests were always met, her appetite grew larger and larger.
She even used the Vice President's name outside to engage in usury!
Thanks to this matter being discovered early and Shi Youxuan stopping it in time, it did not cause any particularly large impact.
But the idea of keeping Wang Yingzhi in L Country was also declared unfeasible.
L Country wouldn't work, so where to put her?
A Country wouldn't work either; Qi Heng valued loyalty and sentiment, and whether Wang Yingzhi could be disciplined in A Country, Shi Ran didn't know, but she would definitely emotionally blackmail Qi Heng; this was certain.
This path wouldn't work either; if she were brought back to Jiangzhou, she would 100% find trouble for the mother-in-law again, so that wouldn't work either.
When Wang Yingzhi was dealing with the Zhu brothers, she was quite useful.
But without an opponent, she became the opponent!
Just at this time, Aunt called, and upon learning that Wang Yingzhi had nowhere to be placed.
She said: "Xuanxuan, send Wang Yingzhi to me; I have a use for her."
Shi Youxuan hesitated: "What do you want to use her for? That person is very difficult to deal with."
"And the geographic location of the Ji Family is special; aren't you afraid she will leak the location?"
Ji Yingjie: "It's fine, based on her intelligence, she won't be able to leak it at all. I feel that those two brats from the Zhu Family are very close to me; send her over, perhaps she will be of great use."
"Alright."
Only then did Shi Youxuan agree.
They had reached a consensus, but it wasn't certain whether Wang Yingzhi would agree to this matter.
Her husband was very certain: "She will agree."
Shi Youxuan: "Why are you so certain?"
Sheng Hanyu: "Do you want to make a bet?"
Shi Youxuan: "Alright, what are we betting?"
Sheng Hanyu: "If you lose, within three months, whatever I say you must listen to; you cannot refute, and you are not allowed to have different opinions."
She agreed: "Fine, but what if you lose?"
He said: "The same thing; within three months, I will also listen to everything you say, will not refute, and will not have different opinions."
She just wanted to agree, but reacted in time.
"Forget it, I won't bet with you; this is a deal where you win no matter what."
Originally, she was the one who made the decisions at home; adding a time limit now wasn't that just gilding the lily?
It was good that she reacted quickly, otherwise she would have been tricked!
A bet couldn't be made, but the answer still had to be told; not telling wasn't an option, as a pampered wife was just that overbearing.
Sheng Hanyu: "You just need to inadvertently reveal to that woman that the Ji Family has a Treasure, and she will go there on her own initiative."
Shi Youxuan: ……
She gave her husband a thumbs up; that was correct, with Wang Yingzhi's money-grubbing nature, she would definitely do that.
……
Wang Yingzhi returned from outside and saw Shi Youxuan on the phone with someone.
It seemed like she was afraid of being overheard, as she was covering her mouth with her hand.
If she was afraid of being overheard, it must be important information!
She walked over on tiptoe, and although she couldn't hear the whole sentence, she heard it more clearly.
Shi Youxuan mentioned "Treasure," "a lot of money," "cannot let others know," and it seemed she mentioned her name later on.
Her eyes lit up.
Her eyes lit up, and she quietly leaned in a little closer.
This time, she heard it more completely.
Shi Youxuan: "Aunt, I really don't have the time. I know that Treasure is very important, but the Sheng Family is just as important. Please find someone else; don't ask me."
"What? You can't find anyone else? How could you not find anyone? The Ji Family is full of talent; there must be a suitable candidate to guard the Treasure..."
Hearing the word "Treasure," Wang Yingzhi's eyes lit up, and she could no longer control herself.
"I can do it, I'll go, I'll go. Anyway, I have nowhere else to go. You all hate me, so let me go find your aunt; that way, you can be rid of the sight of me."
Shi Youxuan turned her head abruptly, her face tense: "Why do you walk without making a sound? It's like you're a ghost."
"Where are you going? Don't let your imagination run wild. You've performed a service for the Sheng Family this time; according to our agreement, I will provide for your old age and see to your burial. You will come back to Jiangzhou with us, and I will send people to take care of you."
"Forget it."
Wang Yingzhi curled her lips: "It sounds nice to call it providing for my old age, but in reality, it's just sending people to watch over me. Without freedom, what difference is there between that and being in jail? I don't need you to watch me; I have hands and feet and can work."
This was probably the most spirited sentence Wang Yingzhi had ever said in her life.
Without waiting for Shi Youxuan to respond, she pulled the topic back: "Xuanxuan, what was that about the Treasure you mentioned just now?"
"Oh, you heard wrong. Where would there be any Treasure? Do you think this is a TV show or a novel? It's just that my aunt wants to find a warehouse keeper."
The more Shi Youxuan said this, the more certain she became that there was a Treasure.
"I'll go, I'll go and try."
Shi Youxuan shook her head: "You can't; you don't meet my aunt's requirements."
"What requirements? Tell me about them. What if I can meet them? Besides, what kind of requirements could a warehouse keeper have? Tell me."
Shi Youxuan was secretly delighted, but her face showed great difficulty. She looked Wang Yingzhi up and down, just looking without speaking, as if she were hesitating and weighing things up.
After a long while, she said: "My aunt is looking for someone single, with no children, who doesn't plan on getting married for the rest of their life..."
Wang Yingzhi hurriedly interrupted: "Me, me, me! This condition is tailor-made for me. I'm single, I'm alone, and I don't want to get married anymore."
Shi Youxuan: "That's not right, is it? Don't you go around saying all day that Hanyu is your son and that you are the old mistress of the Sheng Family?"
