Xiao Sheng looked at Zhao Min mockingly. “Their future lives will be in their own hands, and can’t be exchanged for my indenture.”
Xiao Sheng expressed his displeasure.
When Zhao Min saw Xiao Shengs reaction, she hurriedly explained, “Xiao
Sheng, that’s not what I meant. I just want to say that I can give you more than Yu Bing can give you.”
Xiao Sheng didn’t want to waste time on Zhao Min. The two of them were too different. “I have hands and feet, so I’ll get whatever I want myself. Miss Zhao, please don’t look for me again in the future. I don’t want others to misunderstand.
Xiao Shengs rejection had always been direct and merciless. Zhao Min clenched her fists and stared at Xiao Sheng in confusion as she asked, “Since Yu Bing is an intellectual living in the countryside, there’s a high chance that her family is an ordinary family without any connections. I’m not worse-looking than her and my family background is better than hers, so how am I worse than Yu Bing? If there’s anything about me you don’t like, I can change.”
Xiao Sheng replied calmly, “You two are two different people to begin with, so there’s no point in comparing. However, in my eyes, she’s the best. There’s no other reason.”
Zhao Min felt helpless. Xiao Shengs words made her unable to even find a direction to work towards. In that case, he shouldn’t blame her for being heartless!
Zhao Min looked at Xiao Sheng with a trace of ruthlessness in her eyes and her expression was very stubborn. “If you don’t care if you can become a city dweller or not, you should at least care if Yu Bing can continue working, right?” Xiao Sheng frowned when he heard this and asked coldly, “What do you want?”
Zhao Min was very happy that she had found something that Xiao Sheng cared about and could control him, but she was also very angry at how much he cared about Yu Bing. This contradictory feeling made her feel a little exasperated.
Zhao Min smiled proudly at Xiao Sheng. “Now that you my family background, you should know that I can do many things, such as removing her from her position, making her go to the farm to undergo labor reform, or worse. By the way, my parents dote on me very much. As long as I want it, they will help me do it!”
Xiao Sheng gritted his teeth and glared at Zhao Min. He had never hated anyone so much.
When Zhao Min saw Xiao Shengs obvious hatred, she smiled even more happily. “Brother Xiao, the choice is in your hands now. See what kind of life you want to choose for Yu Bing.”
Just as Zhao Min finished speaking, clapping sounded behind her.
Yu Bing said in admiration, “How impressive. You’re using your power for personal gain so openly now?” Zhao Min turned around and saw Yu Bing, who was two meters away. She rolled her eyes, but didn’t answer directly. Instead, she turned around and said to Xiao Sheng sweetly, “Brother Xiao, give me an answer in three days. Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking action.”
After Zhao Min finished speaking, she didn’t wait for their reactions. When she passed by Yu Bing, she even let out a disdainful snort.
Xiao Sheng looked at Yu Bing worriedly, but Yu Bing raised her eyebrows and shrugged nonchalantly.
Seeing Zhao Min’s departing figure, Xiao Sheng walked forward and said in a low voice, “We have to make some preparations. We can’t let her do whatever she wants.”
Yu Bing nodded. The other party’s family background was indeed more impressive than hers, but it was precisely because of this that this might become the other party’s weakness.
“I’ll go to the Xiao family’s house to look for Zeng Li l s sister-in-law. Women know more about the complicated relationship between the families of the high-ranking officials’ children.”
Xiao Sheng looked at Yu Bing apologetically. “I’m sorry for implicating you.”
Yu Bing said with a serious expression, “Indeed. To be precise, I was implicated by your beauty.”
Seeing that Yu Bing was still in the mood to joke, Xiao Sheng said helplessly, “Why are you still teasing me at a time like this?”
Yu Bing pursed her lips and said with a chuckle, “You’re the one who’s unaware. In the eyes of politicians, love is the least worth mentioning. This matter might not be that serious. It’s not suitable to visit someone’s house during the Lantern Festival, so I’ll call and see if I can arrange to visit the Zeng family tomorrow morning.
Some things were easier for women to communicate about, so Xiao Sheng didn’t get involved.
The next day, just after nine o’clock, Yu Bing brought fruits, osmanthus yams, bean rolls, and a few other snacks to the Zeng familys house. When Lin Xue saw Yu Bing, she welcomed her into the house warmly..
