Chapter 227: Lin Shengli: You Don't Want Your Reputation to Be Ruined, Do You?

~7 min read 1,275 words

Seeing it with his own eyes, Shazhu still tried to argue, which also made Qin Huairu furious.

Shazhu grinned foolishly, said nothing, and didn't admit it.

This made Qin Huairu even angrier.

Before, whenever she got angry, Shazhu would say nice things to coax her.

Now he doesn't say a word.

She let out a cold snort and questioned:

"Speak, do you want to be with Yu Haitang?"

Shazhu retorted angrily: "Can't you stop forcing me?"

"How old am I?"

"You keep dragging it out; do you have to wait until I'm seventy or eighty to marry me?"

Qin Huairu frowned tightly and said:

"I already said it, as long as Bang Geng initiates talking to you, we'll go get the certificate right away."

Shazhu made a nasal sound and didn't speak.

Qin Huairu grew more upset: "Come on, say something."

Shazhu: "What should I say?"

"Tell me, what should I say?"

"After all these years, you keep dragging it out; how can you not consider my feelings?"

Qin Huairu: "No, why can't you understand human speech?"

"Is it that I don't want to marry you?"

"Bang Geng has grown up; I only have this one son."

"How could I not consider his feelings?"

"Then can you try to consider things from my perspective?"

"Shazhu, you've changed; I can't understand you anymore."

Shazhu: "Think whatever you want."

"I just want to ask you one thing: if Bang Geng never speaks to me, will you never marry me?"

Qin Huairu: "No, can you just relax a bit?"

"If we take it slow, there will surely be another way."

"Besides, Bang Geng has already taken the first step; taking the first step will lead to a second."

"You can't rush things."

Shazhu: "Forget it, I'm not saying anything else; go away, I want to be alone for a while."

Qin Huairu looked at Shazhu, after a moment sighed deeply, shook her head, stood up, and walked outside.

The next day.

Qin Huairu kept watch by her own window, looking outward.

Yesterday she had already instructed Bang Geng.

If she ran into Shazhu today, she would still nod at him.

Give Shazhu a little sweetener.

However, she especially warned Bang Geng that he must never initiate conversation with Shazhu.

Not long after, Shazhu opened the door and came out.

Moreover, it was quite a coincidence that Bang Geng happened to come from the Houyuan.

Shazhu also caught sight of Bang Geng out of the corner of his eye.

He tried hard to calm his emotions, then turned his body.

Bang Geng walked over slowly.

Shazhu became even more agitated.

Just as he was about to speak to Bang Geng, Xu Damao's voice suddenly came:

"Bang Geng."

His voice came, and he appeared.

Xu Damao appeared, pushing his bicycle.

Upon seeing him, Shazhu's face instantly darkened.

Especially when he saw Bang Geng turn to face Xu Damao.

Shazhu let out a cold snort and turned to leave.

Xu Damao glanced at his back, snorted coldly, and loudly said to Bang Geng:

"Bang Geng, I have to go to the film distribution company today."

"They won't let the new film run."

"I'll go talk to them."

"Go to the cinema and tell them not to sell the tickets, otherwise it's wasted."

Xu Damao deliberately said this for Shazhu to hear, just to cause him trouble.

Shazhu certainly got troubled.

He never expected Bang Geng to actually get together with Xu Damao.

Qin Huairu saw this scene, her mood somewhat complicated.

She didn't know whether this was a blessing or a disaster.

Jia Zhangshi also saw it, stamping her foot, looking flustered and exasperated, she said:

"You say, you say, what kind of situation is this?"

Qin Huairu pretended to be very anxious and said:

"Oh dear, this, what do we do about this?"

"What, what kind of thing is this?"

Jia Zhangshi: "Didn't we agree not to fight with Xu Damao?"

"Even if we fight, we can't let Shazhu see it, you know."

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi actually both understood that Bang Geng was helped by Xu Damao to find a job.

They just thought that as long as Shazhu didn't know, it would be fine.

But now, Shazhu knows.

This matter is now not easy to handle.

If Shazhu is pushed too far, then we'll have to go find Yu Haitang.

By then, everything will be too late.

After thinking a moment, Qin Huairu said:

"No, I need to think of a way."

Having said that, Qin Huairu walked out.

Her so-called thinking of a way was to find Lin Shengli.

Have Lin Shengli stop Yu Haitang from contacting Shazhu.

After hearing Qin Huairu's words, Lin Shengli laughed.

Qin Huairu asked somewhat glumly:

"No, Shengli, what are you laughing at?"

"You have to help me with this."

Having said that, she looked around and asked:

"Is there no one at home?"

Lin Shengli shook his head.

Qin Huairu: "As long as you help me with this, I'll keep you company tonight."

Lin Shengli laughed again, "Qin Huairu, I told you before."

"I've been busy lately, always preparing for the factory to resume production."

"I don't have the leisure for that."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and asked: "You, you, are you getting tired of me?"

That's right.

Lin Shengli is no longer interested in Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu is already old and her beauty has faded.

Moreover, her clothing is unfashionable.

Of course, the most important thing is still Qin Huairu's character.

Just like what he saw of her on TV.

He now also doesn't lack women.

He certainly doesn't want to have anything more to do with Qin Huairu.

This is basically a bottomless pit.

Although he now lacks neither money nor supplies, he feels spending money on Qin Huairu would be too wasteful.

Mainly, it's not worth it.

A few years ago, with his support, Qin Huairu's life was quite good.

But she kept thinking about sucking Shazhu's blood.

Although he knows Qin Huairu and Shazhu don't have anything shameful between them.

Although he knows that Shazhu and Qin Huairu are in a relationship where one willingly hits and the other willingly endures.

Shazhu still hasn't found a partner to this day; that's his own fault, he deserves it.

But he does not allow such a morally corrupt woman in his harem.

Actually, he already regrets it.

He shouldn't have gotten involved with Qin Huairu in the first place.

Back then he only wanted to get revenge on Shazhu, which is why he got involved with Qin Huairu.

However, he soon regretted it.

He shouldn't have acted impulsively.

If he wanted to get revenge on Shazhu, it wouldn't be that hard, would it?

But he stubbornly chose this way.

He is, after all, a lofty time traveler.

Yet he ended up making such a low-level mistake.

So, he has now made a decision.

No longer to have anything to do with a woman like Qin Huairu.

Lin Shengli glanced at Qin Huairu and said:

"I'm really busy right now; if there's nothing else, you can go back first."

Qin Huairu let out a long sigh and asked:

Shengli, do you know why I've never agreed to Shazhu?

Lin Shengli: "I don't want to know."

Qin Huairu: "Even if you don't want to know, I will say it."

"Because in my eyes, there's only you."

"I no longer look at other men."

Lin Shengli frowned and said: "Enough, you can't just say that."

"Otherwise, your reputation will be ruined."

"I think you don't want the reputation you built with hard work to be ruined, do you?"
