Chapter 374: Chapter 348: Taking Down Ming Xi (Thanks to Xuanyuan Yu Chen and Heshi Bi for their contribution)

“Eldest Brother, how did she win you over?” Yu Mingxi thought that her eldest brother was the craftiest person in the family. Otherwise, how could her eldest sister-in-law call him Big Fox?

“I’m not bought by her, but I do admire Xiao Qian. Although she’s younger than you, I’ve rarely seen women as perceptive and skillful as her. Besides, she didn’t just fool you, she even managed to fool an entire village in the mountains.”

Compared to Xiao Qian’s ability to deceive others, her treatment of Yu Mingxi was gentle.

This was the gentlest method Yu Minglang had ever seen Xiao Qian use to deal with a problem.

Xiao Qian used various ruthless tactics against her enemies, but with Yu Mingxi, she chose a gentle approach, showing restraint and not causing any lasting harm or making Yu Minglang get into a fight with his sister. This was truly precious.

Although it was a gentle solution, it was even more intoxicating than a heavy blow. Now, Yu Xiaoqiang couldn’t wait to hug his lovely Xiao Mei and kiss her passionately.

Since she knew that these people were important to her, she chose to be gentle when she could have been more ruthless.

Yu Xiaoqiang’s heart was warmed by Xiao Qian, like a lion being stroked with the fur. Thinking back, his attitude earlier was not as calm as Xiao Mei’s.

You shouldn’t feel guilty. This time it’s not that your IQfcn’t enough but that you care too much about her and me. Once the two people you care about confront each other, you get caught in the middle and easily lose your calm. This is called ‘chaos due to concern’.”

Xiao Qian was also satisfied with Yu Minglang’s performance.

Although he didn’t immediately figure out why his sister’s personality changed so suddenly, he defended Xiao Qian from beginning to end. Xiao Qian appreciated this attitude and intention.

“I still don’t believe it…” Yu Mingxi was utterly crushed by Xiao Qian.

Her wicked eldest sister’s plan was seen through so easily?

“My first impression of you was good.” Xiao Qian said to Mingxi.

“Why, I made things difficult for you today. In order to find this annoying feeling, I intentionally watched several TV series about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships!”

As a singer, her acting skills were seen through at a glance, how humiliating! “You believe in the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships portrayed in domestic TV series? That’s where your failure started! Domestic dramas can’t wait to amplify conflicts by ten thousand times. Where do so many extreme incidents come from in reality? Even if there are, they are not as hateful as portrayed on TV. You didn’t position yourself correctly; a daughter from a wealthy family, even if she is rude, wouldn’t engage in an 1980s village woman’s behavior—of course, your aunt is an exception. What she does doesn’t match her identity. I suspect she has a tendency for paranoid personality, pursuing perfection too much, which leads to her psychological distortion.” “Your evaluation is accurate and spot-on. My aunt is indeed a very paranoid person.” Yu Mingxi really started chatting with Xiao Qian.

She found out that what Xiao Qian said earlier was not bragging.

Not many people were liked by Chen Xiaoqian, but once she took a liking to someone and wanted to be friends with them, few people could resist; she had a magical charm.

“You’re very smart; you know that you can’t fully trust your aunt’s words and only believe in what you see. That’s why you remained vigilant against your aunt’s obvious attempts at sowing discord. This is what I admire about you. In your heart, your family’s honor must be significant. So when facing my mother, even though you had reservations about me, you still maintained your basic politeness.”

These things were what Xiao Qian asked her mother discreetly after the engagement party.

During the toast, Xiao Qian was already sorting out these relationships. When Jia Xiufang said Yu Mingxi was a polite girl who maintained basic courteousness towards Xiao Qian’s family members, Xiao Qian instantly formed a preliminary judgment about Mingxi.

Boss Qian wouldn’t criticize Yu Mingxi over this. A person capable of considering the bigger picture, who acted cautiously, protecting her younger brother, and doing some probing was only reasonable.

“That’s a bit too much… Can I have any secrets with you?” Yu Mingxi was shocked by Xiao Qian’s accurate analysis of their relationships.

Xiao Qian stretched out her hand and made a formal self-introduction.

“I am psychologist Chen Xiaoqian, and analyzing people’s hearts is one of my hobbies. Now I have a new identity, I am Yu Minglang’s fiancee. Would you like to accept me as your sister-in-law?”

Eldest Brother Yu had worked with Xiao Qian before, and Yu Minglang knew his fiancee quite well.

The brothers exchanged glances and immediately read the same message from each other’s eyes.

Usually, whenever Xiao Qian introduced herself to someone very seriously, saying, “I am a psychologist,” it meant that, in her perception, she had already taken control of the situation and was completely confident.

As expected, after Xiao Qian finished speaking, Yu Mingxi also extended her hand and shook hands with Xiao Qian.

“I am Yu Mingxi, the sister who was born 5 minutes earlier than Yu Minglang.” Xiao Qian tried to pull Yu Mingxi into her arms for a hug, which, to a certain extent, reflected her subconscious desire to control everything. As she exerted force, she felt Yu Mingxi doing the same.

The two were surprisingly similar in this respect: both liked to be in control of everything.

Feeling the other’s strength, Xiao Qian and Yu Mingxi looked at each other, then let go and changed to a hug.

Yu Mingxi whispered in Xiao Qian’s ear, “I don’t want my younger brother to be troubled.”

“Likewise.”

Yu Minglang was amazed. Xiao Qian had managed to handle the crazy Yu Sanfeng without even using force?

Old Yu patted Yu Minglang’s shoulder, “Your taste is much better than Second Brother’s.”

If it weren’t for Xiao Qian’s quick wit today and getting into a confrontation with Yu Sanfeng, the consequences would have been dire.

Both of them causing a ruckus would be a loss at home.

With Xiao Qian, who could see the essence through the appearance, the conflict was easily resolved.

“What did your aunt tell you?” Eldest Brother asked.

“Actually, she didn’t say much, just told me to watch out for the girlfriend that the youngest brother found.”

The rest was all investigated by Yu Mingxi herself.

“You did well by not being immediately swayed and sticking to your own judgment. If it were my younger brother who found a girlfriend, I would handle the problem the same way.”

Xiao Qian set aside her personal emotions and looked at the problem from a neutral perspective. If Chen Zilong were the one getting engaged and he found a girlfriend who was hard to control, Xiao Qian wouldn’t sit idly by either.

It’s just that Yu Mingxi made some misjudgments. Although Xiao Qian had done many ruthless things in the past, her actions today already demonstrated her intelligence, sufficient for her to be by Yu Minglang’s side.

Yu Mingxi was both sleepy and uncomfortable earlier, so her brain was a little slow. After Xiao Qian analyzed the situation for her, she started to see Xiao Qian in a new light..
