Chapter 161 Revenge
At the same time, on the coffee table in the living room of the Wan family, a mobile phone was playing a video with the highest click rate from a certain entertainment gossip UP host:
"According to an insider who wishes to remain anonymous, this 29.6 billion yuan mansion, Sucong Manor, located in the suburbs of Shenta City, Country C, is one of the betrothal gifts that Hei Huomian gave to his fiancée Bai Shuiru. It covers an area of ..."
"According to information, the manor is equipped with a complete private hospital and fire station with advanced equipment. It is completely a small urban area..."
"Hei Huomian is indeed a man who dotes on his wife. In order to help his fiancée transform into a jewelry designer, he recently organized a skills competition for the fifth anniversary of the establishment of Ming Xin Group..."
"Pretentious!" Wan Che angrily raised his head and took a sip of beer, then slammed the can heavily on the coffee table made of wooden boxes and covered with colorful plaid cloth.
"No wonder the sister I met at the front desk that day said that the champion of the competition has already been decided! She really didn't lie to us. Isn't Bai Shuiru Hei Huomian's fiancée?! What else is there to fight for as my brother-in-law?!"
Qin Xi brought out a basket of cherry tomatoes and a large plate of rice noodles from the kitchen and placed them on the coffee table. Then he took the empty beer cans on the coffee table and threw them into the trash can, lowering his voice to remind:
"You are still young, drinking is not good for you, and you promised your sister that you would never drink again."
Wan Che just stood up and wanted to pick up the can when he heard his sister Wan Lan's voice approaching, and hurriedly sat back in his seat:
"Ah Che, don't say that."
Wanlan then brought out dishes and chopsticks from the kitchen and shook her head, "I think Bai Shuiru was sincere when she came to us to explain that day. And I feel that her magnetic field is very pure and clear, not like that of a treacherous and vicious person." After saying that, she turned back to the kitchen.
Wan Che seized the opportunity and took a big step to pick up the can from the trash can. He tilted his head back to drink the wine inside and quickly threw it back into the trash can. When he turned around, he bumped into Wan Lan.
Wan Che smiled awkwardly and made a face at Wan Lan, saying:
"The garbage bags are new, and the cans should be placed vertically in the bucket. It would be a waste to throw them away without finishing the drink." As he said this, he was about to take the plate from the other person's hand, but Wanlan dodged sideways.
Wan Che knew that his sister was angry, so he smiled and apologized:
"Sister, don't be angry! I'm already 18, and it was just beer."
Wanlan turned back to the kitchen and took out two or three plum-like purple berries from a jar and handed them to Wanche who was following behind her. Seeing him obediently take a handful and chew them, and his facial features wrinkled up because of the sourness, she slowly persuaded him:
"You and I promised that you would never touch alcohol again in this life, not even cooking wine, beer, or even sweet wine."
Wan Che frowned to hide his flash of guilt and remorse, then tried to relax his features, put on a flattering smile and added a little cuteness, gently grasped his sister's shoulders and pushed her out of the kitchen, "I know I was wrong, sister~! This time, let's celebrate the big order I received last month, how about buying this house in full?"
The young man held his sister's shoulders and spun around, looking around the three-bedroom, two-living room where they lived. In the end, he simply stretched out his arms proudly and cheered for the nine hundred and ninety-ninth time for the pre-marital property he had prepared for his sister.
Wanlan gently brushed the big hand off her shoulder, sat down at the dining table, and picked up the spoon to scoop up the locust flower powder.
Wan Che thought the crisis was over and sat down, but was hit on the back of his hand by Wan Lan's left hand with chopsticks.
"The reward should be settled on the spot. This is the consequence of overdue payment."
Wan Che blew on the back of his red hand, and breathed at the hand that had just been hit, aggrievedly, "Sister, in order to make me quit drinking, you almost stopped using cooking wine when cooking. Speaking of which, I really want to eat the red wine grilled wings you make. Can you make it tomorrow night?" He winked at his future brother-in-law Qin Xi.
But Qin Xi spread his hands to express his helplessness, and went back to the kitchen to wash the pots and clean the kitchen.
The eldest sister of Wanlan showed her full aura. She lowered her eyes and put a bowl of locust flower powder in front of the other party, then responded calmly:
“What should I do before dinner?”
"handwashing."
When Wan Che came back to wash his hands and sit down again, Wan Lan had already added taro balls, crushed peanuts, cherries and Oreo crumbs to the bowl of locust flower powder for him and mixed it evenly.
Wanlan then mixed the second bowl of locust flower powder for Qin Xi, adding more chopped peanuts and cherries, and small pieces of watermelon and cantaloupe. "The guards around Bai Shuiru are wearing uniform uniforms. They are definitely not ordinary ghosts, let alone evil ghosts who are collecting debts. It can be seen that she is protected by the official of the underworld and has a mission."
"Hmph! I'm afraid that money makes the world go round. Ouch~!" Wan Che picked up a piece of brown and translucent beef brisket and put it into his mouth. While chewing, he wanted to pick up a second piece but was hit by Wan Lan again.
Wanlan elegantly held the spoon and mixed the locust flower powder for herself, smiling lightly as she spoke each word:
"Use chopsticks."
Wan Che blew his hands, blinked his puppy eyes and tried to act coquettishly towards his sister, but when it failed, he pouted and continued to sing the opposite tune:
"Humph! I'm afraid that money makes the world go round. Hei may have burned countless paper money to the underworld to buy off the powerful to protect his little lover."
Wanlan added three or four mint leaves to her locust flower powder and began to taste it. "Even if Bai Shuiru has been selected as the champion, it will not affect Ah Xi's level in the slightest. He does not need to rely on one or two championships to prove his strength. I know this very well."
Qin Xi hugged his girlfriend from behind and kissed her gently on both cheeks, "Thank you, Lanlan." He winked at his future brother-in-law, took off his girlfriend's apron, took the bowl and chopsticks to serve her a bowl of beef noodles and mixed the ingredients, "You've worked hard, you try it first."
Wan Che was smart, and quickly served a bowl of noodles to Qin Xi and himself, added the ingredients, and mixed them, then smiled and changed the subject:
"We can often eat hometown flavors even though we are away from home, all thanks to my gentle and considerate chef sister! Sister and brother-in-law eat."
After dinner, Qin Xi cleaned up the dishes and went back to the kitchen to wash them. From time to time, she would lean over to Wanlan, who was making sweet potato juice and snacks, and ask for snacks, and then feed her with food in her mouth. The girl shyly gave in, and grabbed the cut fruit pieces with a smile to "stop" her lover's entanglement, and asked about the taste triumphantly. The boy picked up some detergent foam and smeared it on his girlfriend's nose, and finally the two of them smiled and blossomed like a flower.
The warm afternoon sun shines through the window into the small kitchen, but it is far less than the indescribable warmth and affection that fills the room.
Qin Xi saw Wanlan leaving the kitchen with the sweet potato juice, and immediately turned back to confirm her whereabouts:
"Ache, the sweet potato juice is ground. It will not taste good if it gets cold." Wanlan's sweet voice came in the direction of Wanche's bedroom.
Qin Xi smeared the foam on her hands on her apron and took out her cell phone to dial a number, deliberately lowering her voice:
"It's me. I've already started to get close to Bai Shuiru... I'll do as you say..."
Before Qin Xi could say a few words, Wanlan's voice suddenly came closer and closer to the kitchen:
"Ah Xi, is Ah Che out? Did he say where he was going?"
Qin Xi subconsciously turned around and stopped talking when he saw his girlfriend's anxious expression. He held his breath and looked at his girlfriend. He unconsciously stroked the bridge of his nose with his right hand, which was also dipped in foam, and comically gave himself a white "clown round nose".
"...Thank you, no thanks, bye." Qin Xi hung up the "sales" phone call calmly, swallowed his saliva, frowned slightly and walked forward, "...A Che said he went to buy mountain yellow peel and asked you to make yellow peel sauce and rolled noodles for him to eat."
"But his computer isn't here!" Wan Lan stamped her feet lightly, turned around, rushed back to the dining table, grabbed her phone, opened the door and ran out, "I'm worried that he went to the Black Nether Heart official website!"
Sitting in an outdoor seat at a coffee bar, Wan Che was tapping away on his laptop, mumbling to himself angrily:
"Qin Xi, you big pig's hoof, you don't keep your word! You swore before that you would marry my sister with a promising job and 1.5 million as a betrothal gift, but you suddenly decided to participate in Ming Xin's so-called bullshit competition while watching TV."
"Tsk, this isn't an internationally renowned professional jewelry design competition. Even if I win the championship, what's the point? And you're still trying to stop me! You scumbag!"
Wan Che pressed the Enter key fiercely and cursed concisely:
"Scumbag!"
"Sister, you are such a fool. You actually agreed to Qin Xi's proposal with just a silver ring. Even if he designed and made it himself, so what?! Pure silver is not as valuable as pure gold. It doesn't even have diamonds, emeralds, rubies, sapphires, or pearls! It doesn't even have zircons! If we really break up, I won't be able to get much money even if I put it on Xianyu!"
"No! Even if I don't do it for Qin Xi, I have to seek justice for my sister!"
The young man's ten fingers quickly tapped the keyboard as if playing the black and white keys of a piano. Just as he was watching the code jumping on the screen, suddenly, a gentle voice called from behind:
"Handsome boy, come drink a cup of coffee with me~!"
Wan Che quickly closed his laptop and glared at the hot girl who had already sat down opposite him. "I hate coffee and I hate chatting up people!"
Rao Minzhi took a sip of the coffee in her cup and turned her eyes to the young man, "Buna Vista, you don't like it either?"
Wanche's clear eyes lit up immediately.
Half an hour later, Qin Xi took Wanlan to the Mingxin Building on an electric bicycle and looked up at the hundred-meter-high building in front of them.
"Lanlan, you know Ache. He will definitely find a suitable place near here to hack into the Ming·Xin official website. Let's split up. I'll find a way to get into the building and try to distract the security guards to buy time for Ache. We'll contact each other by phone if there's any situation."
Qin Xi ran towards the building quickly and easily, and quickly turned back to see his girlfriend running away around the corner. He stopped, took out his cell phone, and dialed the number:
"It's me. My wife's brother got into a little trouble, and I need to get into the Mingxin Building."
At 19:57, the sky was filled with coral red and light golden glow, which looked like the pouting lips of a naughty little girl.
At this time, apart from the dining area in Building B which was open to the public, only a few office floors in the Mingxin Building had lights on.
Most of the lights in a corner of the design center were turned off, and only Bai Shuiru was still at her workstation, modifying her work.
Throughout the whole afternoon, rumors spread throughout the Mingxin Group that Hei Huomian had already chosen Bai Shuiru as the final champion of the competition. They were like tiny mosquitoes that could penetrate every pore and made Bai Shuiru extremely disturbed.
She wanted to hide her ears and pretend that something was wrong, but she found that even the chat records in every employee communication group were similar; she waved her hands angrily to drive them away, but found that the whispers stopped abruptly.
This repeats until the end of get off work.
Bai Shuiru waited for a long time until all the colleagues in the design department got off work, and even waited until Han Shuli left, before she could completely calm down and revise the design draft according to the inspiration she had collected before.
However, within a few minutes, clear, powerful and familiar footsteps were heard.
Bai Shui turned around subconsciously and glared at him, but saw a familiar tall figure standing still because of his fierce gaze.
Hei Huomian noticed the look on Ren'er's face and quickly raised his hands in surrender, then handed over the takeaway paper bag in his hand and suggested in a gentle voice:
"Since you insist on going home before having dinner, why not drink some hot chocolate to fill your stomach first."
Bai Shuiru calmly picked up the two documents on the table and pressed them on an empty takeout box, pursed her lips, and said "hmm".
Hei Huomian noticed the girl's little movements, lowered his eyes and smiled knowingly, "There are a lot of things on your desk, I'll put them on the next table." Then he sat down on the chair at the workstation next to her, slowly drinking his hot chocolate and checking Li You's work report.
Bai Shuiru seemed to be continuing to immerse herself in revisions, but in fact she was in a state of confusion:
Bai Shuiru, Bai Shuiru, when did you start to vent your anger on Hei Huomian?
After all, it is your own fault that you are not worthy of your position. What's wrong with Guan Heihuomian abusing his power for personal gain?
Bai Shuiru used the small makeup mirror on the table next to her to secretly glance at Hei Huomian for several seconds before she whispered:
"Hei Huomian, actually I..."
The soft and gentle voice instantly made the man feel better, but the next moment, a sudden knock on the door scared away the girl's good intentions.
Hei Huomian's usual cold and imposing aura immediately reached its full potential, shocking the security guard on duty who came in to report so much that he couldn't help but tremble three times.
The security guard on duty lowered his head, not daring to look up at his boss, but he was oppressed by the aura and atmosphere and swallowed his saliva frequently.
"Speak." Hei Huomian reminded unhappily.
"Dong, Dong, Chairman, Director."
Hei Huomian looked back at Bai Shuiru tenderly to comfort her. He stood up to help Bai Shuiru untie the lid of the hot chocolate cup, blew on it gently and handed it to her. When he turned to the security guard, his eyes were cold and indifferent, "Straighten your tongue before you speak."
The security guard on duty was so shocked that he took two steps back with bated breath. After taking a deep breath, he replied word by word:
"Chairman Dong, the engineers in the technical department who were working overtime reported that someone had hacked into our official website and modified the results of the anniversary competition."
Hei Huomian raised his eyes to look at Li You who came over and confirmed:
"The results of the game were tampered with by hackers?"
"Yes. I had just asked the organizing committee to upload the final results of the competition to the official website, and then it was tampered with..."
As he was speaking, the fire alarm suddenly rang.
The security manager ran to the office door and said:
"Chairman, we are still investigating the fire. For safety reasons, please evacuate downstairs quickly via the emergency staircase."
"Everyone evacuate quickly, you go first!" Hei Huomian pulled Bai Shuiru back two steps, preparing to teleport.
Li You understood and turned around to direct the rest of the people to evacuate quickly and in an orderly manner.
Bai Shuiru's heart skipped a beat, and an idea suddenly popped up in her mind. She hurriedly pulled the man back, "Hei Huomian, I feel like this is not a simple matter. The fire alarm may be related to hackers."
Hei Huomian immediately stretched out his arm and wrapped his arm around Bai Shuiruhuan's waist. "That's also under An's care. I just need to ensure your safety! Close your eyes, I'll teleport you!"
"Wait, Black Fire Sleep!"
