Chapter 721: Chapter 721 It’s Really Uncomfortable Chapter 721: Chapter 721 It’s Really Uncomfortable Lu Yichen was not soone who failed to notice how Qian Caihong looked at him every day. He had been wanting to deal with that disgusting woman for a while now.
Lu Yichen was tolerant in many things, but he did not want to give such a woman any hope, to avoid unnecessary trouble for himself. So, upon entering he looked at Luo Qiao, “You eat first. I’ll step out for a mont and co right back.”
Luo Qiao looked at Lu Yichen, “Eat breakfast first. After eating, you can go take care of things, otherwise, it’ll get cold.”
Having listened to Luo Qiao, Lu Yichen thought it made sense, “Alright, I’ll have breakfast with you first.”
Luo Qiao asked softly, “Who was that girl just now?”
Lu Yichen served a bowl of porridge, “She’s the niece of Chief Xie’s wife from the Household Registration Office next door.”
Luo Qiao pouted, “It’s really uncomfortable being stared at by such a person, and to have her living so close to us too.”
Lu Yichen smiled at Luo Qiao endearingly and tucked her stray hair behind her ear, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle it. She hasn’t done anything before, so I didn’t have reason to say anything. But today she has, and I can’t act as if it didn’t happen, giving her more chances.”
After they finished eating, Lu Yichen cleared the bowls to the kitchen and washed them. When he returned to the room, he saw Luo Qiao still sitting there, “Go back to bed and get so more sleep. Once you’ve rested up, I’ll have brought Stone here, be good!”
Having settled Luo Qiao in, Lu Yichen left the family compound and went straight to the office. Knowing that Xie Changzheng was on duty today, he went directly to his office.
He knocked lightly on the office door, and from inside ca, “Co in.”
Lu Yichen walked right in.
Upon seeing that it was Lu Yichen, Xie Changzheng quickly stood up, “Deputy Director Lu, aren’t you off today?”
Lu Yichen did not beat around the bush, “Chief Xie, you know I’m a straightforward person, so I’ll get straight to the point. Please, when you go ho, tell your niece to stop doing things that disgust people.
Everyone in the departnt knows I am engaged. Even if I were not engaged, I would never be interested in her. If she continues to disturb my life and upset my fiancée, she can’t bla for being rude.”
Xie Changzheng was not a fool; although he didn’t know exactly what his niece had done, she must have provoked Lu Yichen. So he said, “Deputy Director Lu, did Caihong do sothing?”
Lu Yichen replied, “Whatever she did, you can go ho and ask her. I’m just giving you a heads up beforehand. We’re colleagues, after all, and I don’t want to cause any embarrassnt.”
After finishing what he had to say, Lu Yichen bid farewell and left Chief Xie’s office.
Thinking of his niece Caihong, Xie Changzheng felt exasperated. Such a grown-up girl, with no sense at all. She’d been staying there for months without any intention of leaving, and as her uncle by marriage, it was hard to kick her out, wasn’t it?
Worried that she’d cause more trouble, he bid farewell to the colleague on duty next door and returned to the family compound.
As he entered the yard, Qian Xiue asked, “Weren’t you on duty? Why did you co back?”
Xie Changzheng closed the front door, “Where’s Caihong?”
“She’s in the house. Do you have sothing for her?”
“Co inside with , I have sothing to tell you.”
Qian Xiue wiped her hands and followed her husband inside, smiling, “Just tell what it is. Why all the secrecy?”
Xie Changzheng had no ti for laughter, “Did Caihong go over to Deputy Director Lu’s house today?”
“I don’t know, Caihong didn’t tell . Did sothing happen?”
“Deputy Director Lu ca to my office just now and said to stop Caihong from disturbing his life. He also ntioned that if she continues such actions, she’ll be responsible for the consequences.”
“I’ve told her so many tis. Deputy Director Lu is engaged. She should stop dreaming of unattainable things. The mont I took my eyes off her, she caused trouble.”
“She’s been here quite a while. Maybe we should send her back. If she causes any trouble, how can we face people? How can we explain it to my family?”
“Alright, if there’s no other way, I’ll take her back tomorrow. If sothing happens, we really won’t be able to show our faces, and it would be difficult to explain to my family.”
Their conversation was overheard by Qian Caihong, who was at the door. She returned to the room she shared with her cousin.
Thinking about the conversation between her aunt and uncle, she pondered what she should do. She couldn’t just go back like this. She had told her friends that she was going to marry into Capital City. If she returned now, she would lose all face.
Xie Changzheng, seeing his wife agree, said, “Alright, keep a closer eye on her. Make sure she doesn’t cause any more trouble. I’m leaving now.”
Qian Xiue nodded, followed Xie Changzheng out of the yard, and frowned as she glanced at her niece’s room. She thought to herself that she had only stepped out for a mont and trouble had already found its way. This child really was a cause for worry.
She had wanted to ask her niece what exactly she had done, but then she thought that since her niece was already grown up and she was going to send her back tomorrow, it might be better not to bring it up and act as if she didn’t know anything. That way, it would save her niece from embarrassnt.
