Chapter 417: Chapter 417

Chen Jiahua helplessly called out a few times from outside, and seeing that Wan Chu’er ignored him, he could only sulkily return next door.

As soon as he entered, the old lady Yuan Mei Qin asked: "Kicked you out again?"

Chen Jiahua sighed, "I didn’t expect Wan Chu’er to be so heartless, not leaving even a trace of sentiment."

The old lady gnashed her teeth, "This damn girl, she doesn’t know how to respect her elders at all, not letting her suffer a bit will mean she never knows who’s truly good for her!"

"Mom, what are you thinking of doing?" Chen Jiahua quickly asked.

Yuan Mei Qin disdainfully glanced at her son and said, "Calm down, you get all flustered over anything."

Chen Jiahua stalled, then said, "Mom, Wan Chu’er’s maternal grandfather is not someone we can afford to provoke, and that Bai Qiyan, Yan Hui, as well as Wan Chu’er’s husband’s family, they aren’t easy to deal with either."

"Let’s just drop it," demoralized by Wan Chu’er’s repeated rejections, Chen Jiahua felt disheartened and persuaded, "If she doesn’t want to recognize us, then so be it. We’ll just keep doing what we’re doing. We can talk about this again when the opportunity arises."

Yuan Mei Qin expressed her disappointment, "You don’t understand anything!"

Chen Jiahua watched the old lady’s sullen face as she seemed lost in thought, feeling somewhat apprehensive. He dreaded when she got , because based on his past experiences, it meant she was concocting some plan.

But he had grown up under Yuan Mei Qin’s dominance, where could he persuade her? He could only think to be more vigilant himself, and look for a solution if things went wrong.

Next door, Mai Qiqi blinked and asked Wan Chu’er, "The person just now said he was your uncle, so that’s why I let him in. What’s the issue? Is there a problem with that person?"

Wan Chu’er spoke in a nonchalant manner, "Don’t know where those two suddenly sprang from, just don’t bother with them if you see them again."

Then she changed the subject and asked, "Have you eaten yet? I brought you some buns and porridge."

Mai Qiqi quickly nodded, and the two went to the dining room. After reheating the food, Wan Chu’er watched Mai Qiqi eat.

After eating, Wan Chu’er asked, "What are your plans after getting out? Won’t you talk to your family?"

At this, Mai Qiqi’s shoulders slumped as she said gloomily, "I don’t know, I don’t want to see anyone right now." She was actually hoping that An Zihao would come to find her.

But until now, she hadn’t received a single call from An Zihao, and her heart was as much in turmoil as it was sad.

Seeing her , Wan Chu’er shared how she had called An Zihao, asking, "Who’s that woman?"

When Mai Qiqi heard An Zihao’s reaction was for her to calm down more, she felt both anger and resentment, and couldn’t help the tears that started to fall.

Wan Chu’er sighed and passed her some tissue to wipe her tears.

Some time past, Mai Qiqi finally calmed down, and said, "That girl is our junior, she just transferred last semester. At first, she seemed to not know anything, and An Zihao and I took extra care of her."

That extra care, ended up being extended to An Zihao’s bed.

Wan Chu’er frowned slightly and pulled Mai Qiqi to the study. She turned on the computer and asked, "What’s the name of that girl? Where is she from? Which university did she do her undergraduate at?"

"She’s called Chu Xueli, she’s from K province, her undergraduate was also in Beijing, at XXX University in Beijing."

Wan Chu’er raised an eyebrow, keyed "Chu Xueli" into the computer, and chuckled coldly, "She even shares a character with my name."

Mai Qiqi muttered, "It was precisely because of that, I found her pleasing at first."

Great, she’s involved in this too.

Watching Wan Chu’er rapidly typing on the keyboard, one webpage after another opened up on the monitor, revealing all the information about Chu Xueli.

Mai Qiqi felt more and more desolate the more she looked; Chu Xueli had long harbored malicious intentions toward An Zihao, yet she had been like a fool, always keeping Chu Xueli in the loop and being so kind to her.

"I’m really stupid!" she said.

Wan Chu’er couldn’t help but say: "Too naive and too simple-minded?"

Mai Qiqi gave her a lackluster glance.

This Chu Xueli could even match Zhuo Yao, perhaps even surpassing her. Looking at the information, Chu Xueli’s study abroad expenses were all paid by some coal mine owner, and the implications were self-evident.

In the end, Wan Chu’er carefully selected from Chu Xueli’s information and sent the package to An Zihao.

"Alright, let’s see what choice An Zihao makes. If he continues to be obsessed, you should quickly cut ties with him. If he realizes his mistake and turns back, then it’s up to you."

Wan Chu’er has noticed Mai Qiqi still had many feelings left for An Zihao.

If this had happened to her, if Jiang Kechu dared to get involved with any other woman, she would definitely chop that woman and then ditch Jiang Kechu.

Thinking of this, Wan Chu’er felt she needed to head to the Northwest soon. She wasn’t worried about Jiang Kechu, but there were too many cunning women in the world.

Mai Qiqi let out several sighs, still lacking the courage to say anything harsh, and merely said: "Let’s wait for An Zihao’s reply first."

But Wan Chu’er felt it was doubtful; emotionally, where was An Zihao a match for someone like Chu Xueli who had been through numerous battles? He might indeed get caught by Chu Xueli, considering the appeal that the An Family’s conditions held for people like her.

However, she didn’t thought with Mai Qiqi.

After dealing with An Zihao and Chu Xueli, Wan Chu’er remembered Zhuo Yao’s matter and felt she should also do something to prevent Zhuo Yao from continuing to cause trouble.

Mai Qiqi saw Wan Chu’er about to leave and asked, "Where are you going? I’m in this state, and you’re not staying with me?"

Wan Chu’er’s mouth twitched, "What’s with you? You can eat and drink, don’t try to act pitiful with me, I can’t stand people playing the victim!"

Mai Qiqi glared at her, petulantly saying: "I don’t care, Jiang Kechu isn’t by your side now, so I’m sticking to you."

She didn’t want to go home, truly fearing her family’s concern and pleasantries; staying alone would only lead to rampant overthinking.

Clearly, Wan Chu’er had also thought of this, and she felt it wouldn’t be bad to have Mai Qiqi accompany her to deal with Zhuo Yao.

The two of them changed into the most ordinary black clothes, carried backpacks, and even each wore a long duck feather hat.

Mai Qiqi: "Why do I feel like we’re about to do something bad?"

Wan Chu’er walked out first, "You feel right."

"Ah?" Mai Qiqi’s eyes immediately lit up, and she quickly followed.

Half an hour later, the two darted around in the electronic mall, Mai Qiqi watched as Wan Chu’er went from one store to the next, buying a stack of things: headphones, cameras, listening devices...

After the shopping, they returned home again, Mai Qiqi watched as Wan Chu’er tinkered with those items in the study.

"Who are you planning to monitor?"

Wan Chu’er: "Zhuo Yao."

Mai Qiqi curiously asked: "Is it that woman who made those outrageous statements at your wedding?"

"Why can’t she just disappear?"

"So this time, I want her to be scared out of her wits!" Wan Chu’er said indifferently. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveIFire.net
