Chapter 190: Marrying A Rich Lady (23)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“I feel that you and Boss Qin are very harmonious.” Xiao Li and Boss Qin seemed to fit each other very well.
Harmonious?
They were only one step away from killing each other. How could our female protagonist see they were in harmony?
Is this why I can’t be a female protagonist?
Ming Shu shook her head. “I don’t like him.”
Qin Che didn’t like her, either.
She could see the seriousness on Qin Che’s face, but no real heart.
“Oh.” Jiang Duo sounded a bit disappointed as she murmured, “In fact, you and Boss Qin are very well-matched. You two standing together, you seem like a couple of heavenly creation. It’s enviable. And he’s also your brother, that’s like so cute…”
Wake up my lady female protagonist! What are you thinking about all day long!
She imagined a scene of her and Qin Che at their wedding ceremony and fighting against each other… Ming Shu was startled by her thoughts and quickly shook the picture out of her mind as well as the goose b.u.mps.
He and I?
That’s crazy.
She didn’t dare imagine further.
…
Jiang Duo said she wanted to be alone for a while, so Ming Shu went downstairs to have some food.
After mocking some sarcastic colleagues, Qin Che turned around and spotted Ming Shu at a glance, who was sitting in the rest area and kept shoving food into her mouth like a hamster.
There was a man standing beside her, who seemed to be talking to her. Ming Shu didn’t respond at all, but as the man continued talking he reached out to approach Ming Shu.
Seeing this, Qin Che ignored another boss coming over to be mocked and went straight to Ming Shu. But before he got any closer, Ming Shu suddenly got up and caught the man in an overarm throw. The man fell to the floor.
It made a big noise and attracted everyone’s attention.
After a while, the crowd exclaimed loudly.
“Isn’t that Mister He? Chut , that woman is finished, she dared to beat Mister He.”
“We have a good show today.”
“That girl looks a bit familiar…”
Most of the onlookers were young people. They loved gossip and kept whispering to each other.
Ming Shu was standing sideways, not showing her face. Thus, those who had seen her before only felt she was a bit familiar.
“He was being indecent.” Ming Shu calmly sorted out her clothes and turned to smile at the coming staff. “May I trouble you to throw him out?”
The staff members were frozen in place. These people here today were all respectable big potatoes, how did they dare to throw anyone out.
Let alone the famous dandy Mister He in the circle right now.
“Isn’t that Boss Qin’s girlfriend?” As Ming Shu showed her full face, someone immediately whispered to his companions, “Is she?”
“You should be right. I saw Boss Qin with her last time.”
“This is Boss Qin’s girlfriend? So beautiful. Is she a lady of another rich family?”
“I don’t know. We haven’t seen her in the circle. But look at her temperament, a girl that could attract the young master of the Qin family must not be a n.o.body.”
“Well well, this is quite a good show.”
Many people started to enjoy the show and gloated.
“Mister He, are you okay?” Someone stepped forward to help the man up.
Mister He was suddenly attacked like this and couldn’t figure out what just happened. His head became dizzy, ears squeaking. So he didn’t hear the discussion behind at hall.
After quite a while, he came to himself and pointed to Ming Shu, roaring, “Crazy b.i.t.c.h! I gave you some face yet you dared to beat me! You were just pretending. You’ll be thrown out!”
Ming Shu tilted her head. “How many faces do you have that you can just give one of them away?”
Pu—
Some onlookers couldn’t help but laugh aloud. He Yuxuan glared in the direction the laughter was coming from, and the laughter weakened.
“d.a.m.n b.i.t.c.h, you’ll…”
“Ah!” He Yuxuan was once again thrown to the ground by Ming Shu.
“Next time you interrupt my eating again, it’ll not be as simple as this.” Ming Shu looked down at He Yuxuan.
His embarra.s.sed appearance was now reflected in her smiling eyes.
He Yuxuan got extremely irritated. He pulled himself up and roared in a broken voice, “What are you doing! Throw this crazy woman out! Throw her out!”
“He Yuxuan, who are you saying to throw out?”
A sarcastic voice sounded from beside him. The entire place suddenly quieted down as if someone had pressed the pause b.u.t.ton.
He Yuxuan stiffened and turned his head mechanically. A few steps away, a handsome but icy man was standing with a pair of firm eyes, staring at him. A sense of invisible oppression gradually spread in the air.
He Yuxuan widened his eyes slightly, and stuttered, “C… cousin.”
“Who are you saying to throw out?” Qin Che repeated the question.
He Yuxuan knew that his cousin usually wouldn’t care much about his business, so he pointed to Ming Shu and reported confidently, “She beat me.”
Qin Che slowly walked to stand next to Ming Shu. “She beat you and that’s your honor, do you have any questions?”
He Yuxuan seemed to have heard something unbelievable.
Qin Che rarely meddled in his business. Even when he sometimes bullying others, Qin Che would at most mock at him with a few words.
But today…
This woman… She seemed a bit familiar.
“Cousin, she…” He Yuxuan was reminded of the recent rumors and swallowed his following words. Then he thought of the photo his father had shown him and started to realize Ming Shu’s ident.i.ty. “Oh, she is Cousin’s girlfriend, we’re one family. It was my fault just now…”
He Yuxuan quickly apologized and admitted it was his fault.
As everyone knew, no matter how arrogant He Yuxuan was, he had to hide his claws in front of Qin Che.
“Get lost.” Qin Che didn’t want to see He Yuxuan.
“Well, okay, Cousin, I’m leaving.” He Yuxuan was relieved and hurriedly stepped to one side. But he shouted at the crowd immediately, “What are you looking at! Move.”
The crowd scattered.
Ming Shu gave an unclear look at Qin Che, which made Qin Che feel a bit awkward.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Qin Che didn’t understand, so he asked.
Ming Shu answered weirdly, “Thank you, Brother and boyfriend, for speaking up.”
Qin Che felt there was something else in her words, but it didn’t prevent him from picking up the topic. “What about offering yourself as a thank you gift?”
“Get away!”
“…”
…
The engagement banquet officially began.
Nan Youyou wore a white gauzy dress and stood with Shen Yuanzhao, accepting the blessings and envy of everyone.
[Guest, go save the female protagonist.] The Harmony System suddenly alerted her.
What?
The Harmony System hadn’t alerted her like this before.
[Save the female protagonist and foil Nan Youyou’s plan so that you can get Hatred Points.] The Harmony System explained immediately.
Ming Shu looked around and didn’t find Jiang Duo. That loyal male supporting role was looking at the stage absently.
“Where are you going?”
As Ming Shu was about to leave, Qin Che grabbed her immediately.
“Restroom.”
Qin Che glanced at her. He didn’t feel right deep down but also didn’t stop her.
There were so many rooms upstairs, and it took Ming Shu quite a while to find a room which was guarded by two people.
Seeing Ming Shu coming over, the two men straightened at once. But Ming Shu walked casually and looked harmless and unprepared, and this made them less alert in their hearts.
Just as she pa.s.sed, Ming Shu suddenly lifted her leg to kick strongly at the nearest person. The other man reacted very quickly, and he took out the electric baton on his waist, waving it toward Ming Shu.
Ming Shu blocked the attack with one hand, then dodged to one side. She grabbed the man’s hand and led the electric baton hit the other man’s neck. The man’s eyes immediately rolled and he fell to the ground.
Before the other person could respond, he felt a darkness covering his eyes. Then he also fell to the ground. Done!
Ming Shu dusted off her hands and kicked away the “corpses” in the way. She tried to open the door, but it was locked from the inside.
Nothing could be heard from the outside.
