Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Scheming All The Way To The End
“Several hundred thousand? !” Liusu was dumbfounded, “are you not joking? Nan Nan, isn’t it a bit too much?”
“You just realized it now?” Seeing two bags full of food in my hand, I shook my head and said to Dongfang Lianren, “You are really naughty. How did you come up with the idea of asking for food to take away? This is really mean.”
“This is not my idea,” Dongfang Lianren pushed Chu Yuan to the front, smiling: “It was Yuan Yuan’s idea.”
Chu Yuan blushed and explained quickly: “I thought that since it was rare to eat such delicious food, and it was someone else paying the bill anyway, so why not pack some and take it home, so mom and dad can try them as well? But I didn’t know it would be that expensive. . .”
“It’s okay, haha. Yuan Yuan, you don’t be afraid. No one is blaming you,” Mo Fei stroked Chu Yuan’s head affectionately, tears flashed in her touched eyes, “You even thought about your parents, you are such a good kid.” Mo Fei was also a filial daughter. She must have felt the same way.
Liusu said proudly, “Of course, there are not many kids like Yuan Yuan nowadays.” Looking at the proud look of Liusu, it made me feel as if Chu Yuan was not my little sister, but her little sister.
‘*Facepalm* Why don’t you say she is cunning and cruel?’
I sighed secretly. Probably, Chu Yuan would never take off her lovely disguise in front of people, apart from me.
After sighing, I asked, “Liusu, did you record it?”
Hearing what I said, Liusu took out the phone and shook it, “Mhm, I have recorded everything. It is a video.”
I nodded, “Don’t show this to your cousin yet.”
“Why?”
Not only Liusu and Mo Fei, but Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren were also confused.
Liusu was puzzled and said: “Isn’t this the reason why we came to this place?”
“No,” I smiled faintly, “We were just here to make him bleed. And at the same time, checking if he is faithful to your cousin. The thing you have recorded is not evidence, only a reference. If you gave it to your cousin without warning, she would only feel disgusted and think that we have done such shameful things behind her back. Did you forget how much our bill was?”
“He deserved it!” Liusu said angrily. “He is not faithful to my cousin after all.”
“What if he said that it was only for business purposes and he had no choice but to approach Fei Fei to please her? Do you think your cousin will believe you or believe him?”
Ms. Shu was like a blank piece of paper, which would only make people feel helpless sometimes, especially if you look at her attitude towards Liu Xiaosheng. The relationship between those two people has already reached a certain extent. She would not easily break up with him because of something that she wasn’t sure.
Liusu also understood this, “then, what should I do? I can’t just let him keep lying to my cousin, right?”
It was at this moment, Mo Fei said, “Chu Nan, are you worried that Liu Xiaosheng will take the initiative to confess to Miss Shu first?”
“Yes, he will most likely do it,” I smiled helplessly: “And after he takes the initiative to confess, not only will that make him look like he is honest, but it will also make us look like bad people. Then the recording Liusu has will become the evidence of that.”
Liusu hurriedly said, “Then why did you want me to record it? !”
“I asked you to record it, but I didn’t ask you to show it to Ms. Shu. . .” Seeing Mo Fei frowning and thinking, I said with a sly smile, “Just imagine, if we didn’t tell your cousin, she would not know anything. And then if Liu Xiaosheng confessed to her, wouldn’t that raise a bit of suspicion?”
Several girls gradually showed enlightened expressions. And Mo Fei exclaimed in surprise, “Oh~ Chu Nan, you want to. . .”
“Yes, we have created an illusion that we would tell Ms. Shu about it, and this will become a test for Liu Xiaosheng. If he indeed confessed, it can only prove that he was indeed guilty,” I sighed and continued: “Love is a matter between two people. We don’t have the right to separate them. The choice is Miss Shu’s own business, Liusu, if your cousin asks anything about today, you can honestly tell her what you think of Liu Xiaosheng. Let her observe and judge whether Liu Xiaosheng is worthy of her love. If she doesn’t understand it, just give her this video.”
Dongfang Lianren sighed, “Elder brother Nan, you are so cunning.”
“It’s not cunning,” I grinned bitterly, and said with emotion: “I would rather demolish ten temples than ruin a marriage. I just don’t want to be the bad guy.”
After listening to this, Liusu and Mo Fei’s surprised expressions suddenly froze. . .
…
I was really a little drunk, swaying as I walked. If it weren’t for Chu Yuan’s support, I felt that walking in a straight line would have been very difficult. Even if I dared to drive, others might not dare to sit in my car. . .
Liusu could drive, but her driving speed was really unsatisfactory. Running out of patience, Mo Fei almost wanted to drive herself. But her unsteadiness has proved that she, too, was drunk, and without immunity to alcohol, she was literally a two-pot screamer.
Liusu first sent Chu Yuan and me to my parents’ house, and then she went to send Mo Fei and Dongfang home. As a result, the topic we didn’t finish in the afternoon couldn’t be continued because there were too few opportunities for us to talk to each other alone. So why did Liusu leave the resort early last week on her own, I still didn’t know the reason.
Although Dongfang was very clingy to Chu Yuan, she was too embarrassed to come to my parents’ house, so she left obediently.
“Dad, Mom, we brought you supper.” Chu Yuan was not as afraid of my old man as I was. She opened the door with the key and called out loudly while changing her shoes. It was rare to see her in such a good mood. Maybe it was the first time for her to see something so interesting tonight.
My old man was enjoying his authentic tea, sitting on the sofa in the living room and watching TV. He was startled by Chu Yuan’s voice. Seeing that it was us, he couldn’t help feeling a little amused and angry, “you are a girl, and it’s unseemly for a girl to shout like that!”
Chu Yuan stuck out her little tongue cutely, but didn’t take it seriously. She took the bag in my hand and put it on the table, took out the takeaway box one by one, and said with a smile, “Dad, we brought you supper.”
“Oh? Bought me supper? Hehe… Daughters really care about their fathers. This old saying doesn’t lie.” My old man’s eyes were full of smiles, but once the eyes turned to my face, they suddenly became cold and serious, “Xiao Nan, Yuan Yuan still needs to go to school tomorrow, why did you bring her home at this time?”
‘Uh. . . Old man, I know that you are biased and treating me differently, but can you at least try to hide it?’
Before I could speak, Chu Yuan had already pulled me to sit on the couch, staring at my old man in dissatisfaction, and pouting her lips: “Elder brother took me out to eat a French meal tonight, and he specially asked for some dish to take away so you and mom can taste them as well. Why are you treating him like this?”
‘This bratty girl actually stood up for me!?’ I was almost as surprised as Liu Xiaosheng when he discovered Liusu’s real identity. Clearly, it was her idea, but she actually told my old man that it was my idea. It was even more shocking than the sun rising from the west.
My old man was dazed for a moment. Seeing Chu Yuan holding my arm and pulling me to sit down beside her, although he was still angry, he had a gratified smile on his face, “Okay, haha, okay.”
The relationship between Chu Yuan and I was a little special. Seeing that we could get along with each other like blood-related siblings, of course, my old man was happy, “let me see what my precious daughter had bought us.”
Chu Yuan corrected it: “My elder brother bought it!” Having said that, she turned her head and looked at me. Seeing that I was also looking at her in surprise, the bratty girl lowered her head instantly, her pink cheeks flushed. . . ‘This bratty girl. If she is not used to praising me, she doesn’t need to force herself.’
Probably, Chu Yuan was really grateful to me for inviting her to eat a meal worth hundreds of thousands of Chinese Yuan. . .
My stepmother had just taken a shower and walked out of the bathroom wearing a cartoonish nightgown that was definitely not suitable for the woman at her age. Seeing me sitting on the sofa, she threw away the towel that was wiping her head, strode up to me, and gave me a bear hug, “Xiao Nan, Yuan Yuan, when did you come back?”
