538: Chapter 537: Mass Release 17 538: Chapter 537: Mass Release 17 If it hadn’t been for Xu Zhiqiang saying that Dongzi was diligent and conscientious at work, Xu Niannian would have really wanted to demote him directly.
“Alright, you can go now.”
After Xu Niannian had spoken, Dongzi finally left the room, full of gratitude.
The mont he stepped out, Dongzi felt his forehead break out in a cold sweat, not expecting the Xu family’s younger sister to erupt with such an imposing manner of a big boss, which was really frightening.
Dongzi quickly patted his chest, thinking to himself that he was nearly killed by Zhao Zhenzhen and her daughter; it seed he had misfired with his flattery.
Determined never to make such a blunder again, he was even more resolved to work hard.
Flattery obviously didn’t work here; apart from doing his job well, there were no other options.
After Dongzi had left, only Xu Zhiqiang, Xu Sisi, and Xu Niannian remained in the office.
Xu Zhiqiang looked at Xu Niannian seriously and said, “Sister, thank you for being willing to believe in .”
Xu Niannian’s previously stern expression suddenly softened into a smile at his words.
“You are my own brother, how could I not know you?
How could you be involved in that sort of thing?
However, you should go and explain to Xiao Rou.
She seems to have misunderstood.”
Xu Zhiqiang had been wanting to explain to Chen Xiaorou, but he had been relentlessly harassed by Zhao Zhenzhen, the shaless woman.
That’s why he wanted to sort out this matter before explaining to Chen Xiaorou.
Hearing Xu Niannian say this, Xu Zhiqiang nodded firmly and said, “Alright, I will go.”
With Zhao Zhenzhen, the shaless woman, as a contrast, Xu Zhiqiang suddenly felt that Chen Xiaorou was indeed very obedient and virtuous.
Xu Niannian again thought about what Chen Xiaorou had said.
In the end, the reason why Chen Xiaorou refused to believe Xu Zhiqiang wasn’t due to a lack of trust, but rather because Xu Zhiqiang hadn’t made his affection for her sufficiently clear.
Moreover, they were married, and her foolish brother hadn’t even touched Chen Xiaorou yet.
Xu Niannian really wanted to crack open his head and see what was inside.
Why didn’t he possess those special qualities that a man should have?
Xu Niannian thought of Jin Gouzi’s shaless manner and, by comparison, shook her head, finding her brother sowhat more innocent.
Xu Niannian had even thought that after their uncle had shared all those experiences with him, he would understand how to proceed.
Yet, the fool had still not made a move.
When it ca to this subject, Xu Niannian actually felt a bit embarrassed, but she thought she should give him a reminder.
Slightly uncomfortable, she coughed a few tis, “That is, Zhiqiang, do you know Xiao Rou almost ran away from ho just now?”
“What?” Xu Zhiqiang exclaid in surprise, looking incredulously at Xu Niannian, “Where was she planning to go?”
Xu Niannian: “Uh…”
Is that the point?
Isn’t the focus why she wanted to run away from ho?
Xu Niannian rubbed her forehead helplessly, really dealing with a straight-as-an-arrow man here.
She decided not to beat around the bush.
She felt that her brother wouldn’t understand what she ant to say if she even slightly minced her words.
So she said directly, “Xiao Rou misunderstood, thinking there was really sothing between you and Zhao Zhenzhen.
That’s why she wanted to run away from ho.
She believes you don’t like her and that you married her only due to Mom’s pressure.
She…”
“Yes, that’s one of the reasons.”
Xu Niannian hadn’t finished speaking when Xu Zhiqiang suddenly interjected.
“Huh?”
Xu Niannian looked at Xu Zhiqiang speechlessly, “What did you say?”
“Didn’t you say Xiao Rou thought I married her because of Mom’s pressure?
That’s one of the reasons,” Xu Zhiqiang said earnestly.
Xu Niannian: “…Is there not any other reason?”
“Yes.”
A hint of amusent quickly danced in Xu Niannian’s eyes.
As long as there was another reason, that was good, that was good.
“What other reasons?” Xu Niannian asked.
Thinking Xu Zhiqiang would at least say he liked Chen Xiaorou, instead, he ca out with, “Xiao Rou is sensible and well-behaved, doesn’t cause trouble.”
After a pause, as if to add a thrill for Xu Niannian, he added, “Convenient.”
Convenient?
Xu Niannian looked at Xu Zhiqiang with a mix of amusent and disbelief.
Sensible and well-behaved, not causing trouble, was an acceptable reason that could increase his favorability.
But what on earth did he an by convenient?
Hey, big guy, convenient for what?
To rush into a divorce?
It just couldn’t get any more straightforward.
Xu Niannian looked up at the ceiling, wondering if a man ever confessed to her, saying he liked her because it was convenient.
She might pull out her insole right on the spot to slap it across his face, saying, ‘Convenient for your mother, was I born just to be convenient for you?’
Forget Xu Niannian.
Even Xu Sisi, who had only a rudintary grasp of romance, felt disdain upon hearing Xu Zhiqiang’s words.
Disgusted, she suddenly felt that even Brother Ruiyang, who wasn’t as gentle, was still much better than her Brother Zhiqiang.
Seeing Xu Niannian silent, Xu Zhiqiang asked puzzledly, “Sister, is there anything else?
If not, I’ll go explain to Xiao Rou.
Otherwise, she might actually run away from ho, and then I’d have to go looking for her.”
