Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Who Dares Touch My Wife is Seeking Death (9)

Kang Baojun vigorously scratched his head.

"It seems you’ve found out," Kang Junjia could tell.

"Dad, don’t mention it, that bastard just sent someone over with a bouquet of Qingming Festival flowers. My wife and I were almost angered to the point of vomiting blood."

"Who told you to be so careless in your dealings?"

"Dad!" Kang Baojun protested anxiously, "Why are you talking about me the same way she does? Could I have controlled it? Those villagers, each one uneducated, you don’t know the risk to my life every time I communicate with them. They made their own decision; I’ve never taught them to kill, how could I possibly teach them to do something that would get us all thrown in jail. It was their own fear; they panicked when they saw people coming to investigate and did it without consulting me."

"Do you think your father-in-law and brother-in-law would believe that?"

Kang Baojun had nothing to say.

"Kang Baojun, if you don’t want anyone to know, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place. Listen to your dad, let this matter end here."

"Dad?"

"What, do you think the villagers would be willing to spit out the meat that’s already in their mouths? No. They only recognize money."

After thinking for a moment, Kang Baojun said, "I understand, Dad."

"Quickly take care of the people you need to deal with. Your father-in-law was planning to react at the board meeting today. I don’t know if it’s luck or what, but suddenly someone intervened and threw a wrench in his plans. Of course, even if your father-in-law was planning to say anything at the board meeting today, I wouldn’t have made a peep."

"Dad, I’ll resolve this quickly in the next couple of days. But, Dad, please help me to take a few more days off from the company."

"What about your wife, has she been staying with you in the hospital all this time?"

Kang Baojun looked up again at Xiao Shulan and pointed at his phone.

Xiao Shulan coldly watched the father and son, raising her chin slightly towards her husband: Do you need to ask?

"Dad, she’s busy, how could she possibly stay with me in the hospital the whole time," Kang Baojun turned back and told the phone.

Kang Junjia directly hung up on him.

Xiao Shulan didn’t bother with the father and son anymore, the matter was settled for the time being. It was an embarrassing deed done by her own family relatives; even if Xiao Jianming knew, he’d have to cover up for them a bit. After all, no lives had been lost.

Now the pressing matter was to call her younger sister Xiao Shuju to ask about the girl she had mentioned introducing to Xiao Yebai last time.

After all, considering Xiao Shuju’s age, it was impossible for her to have a daughter as old as Lin Yishan. This meant that Lin Yishan was the daughter of Xiao Shuju’s husband’s ex-wife.

Perhaps because of the lackluster relationship with her own mother, Lin Yishan’s relationship with Xiao Shuju was not bad.

However, in Xiao Shulan’s view, it should be said that, fundamentally, Lin Yishan and her father were no different from her own husband—they only had eyes for the Xiao family’s money. Therefore, whether Xiao Shuju became her stepmother or not was not a critical issue for Lin Yishan. What mattered more was whether she could get some of the Xiao family’s wealth from her stepmother in the future.

When the call was made, Xiao Shuju was eating durian, and the strong scent of durian seemed almost able to transfer through the phone to Xiao Shulan.

Xiao Shulan covered her nose: "Are you eating durian?"

"Big sister, your nose is so sensitive," teased Xiao Shuju.

"Stay away from me!"

"You’re the one who called me, not the other way around," Xiao Shuju complained.

Xiao Shulan took a deep breath and asked, "Last time, didn’t you say you wanted to introduce a girl to Yebai? I saw her picture; she is indeed beautiful."

"Do I even need to say it?" Xiao Shuju replied. "Miss Su, Little Su, a great beauty. She’s been the campus belle from childhood, even that Arab Prince came chasing after her in his car."

Xiao Shulan only wanted to know one thing, "So the introduction wasn’t successful?"

"He wouldn’t even look, let alone meet," Xiao Shuju said, shaking her head about her peculiar brother, "You’d think I’d get some gratitude for being such a good sister, worried that as he gets older, becoming an uncle, it would be hard to find a young and pretty girl. But no, he totally snubs my help. Claims that uncles only get better with age, more charming. And what’s more outrageous is when Yishan tries to introduce a potential girlfriend, he has the nerve to shoot back with a saying about beauties belonging on cow dung."

Pfft!

Kang Baojun, overhearing the conversation, unexpectedly spat out a mouthful of tea onto the ground.

His brother-in-law’s words had just reached a whole new level of venom.

No matter which family’s daughter, who could tolerate such a remark!

"Besides—" Xiao Shuju continued, "Isn’t he allergic? Last time he ended up in the hospital just from a red carpet actress, and Dad has given strict orders: no women are to approach him carelessly."

"Well, you may not know. He was purely faking it," Xiao Shulan stated calmly.

"What?" Xiao Shuju seemed not to understand.

"Last night, I saw with my own eyes as he walked hand-in-hand with a woman. What allergy? A complete figment. He concocted such a lie simply because he doesn’t trust us sisters."

Xiao Shuju chewed her teeth irritably on the other end of the line, "I’ve always treated him the best since we were kids. I even washed his urine-soaked diapers."

"I’ve fed him milk before. Our eldest sister used to sing him to sleep. Our youngest sister let him have all her toys."

"Oh—" Rather than Xiao Shulan’s indignation, Xiao Shuju just sighed, "Forget it."

"What do you mean forget it? That woman is a vixen. I can smell the pickled cabbage scent on her from a mile away. Do you want your brother entangled with a family-ruining vixen?"

Xiao Shulan’s impassioned speech elicited a reaction from Xiao Shuju.

They all said that Xiao Yebai would inherit the Xiao family’s fortune in the future, but Xiao Jianming was still alive, and who knows what could happen. It was unthinkable to let Xiao Yebai bring a wife in to divide the family’s wealth.

"I’ll talk to Yishan again, see what Miss Su from the Su family says. We should at least offer an apology, right?" Xiao Shuju was reconsidering.

"Alright, you handle that matter," Xiao Shulan agreed quickly, and then remembering something, asked, "By the way, who did you say her aunt is?"
