Problematic Sister Fell In Love With Me

Chapter 400 - Reminder of Shu Tong

Chapter 400: Chapter 401 Reminder of Shu Tong

“I know he hates you because of Mo Fei…”

I was taken aback. “You… already know…”

“It was not a secret that he was chasing Mo Fei. I didn’t know it before because I was foolish. But after I asked around, I gradually understood everything. Chasing me was just a pastime for him. So I decided to break up with him. In that case, he can also focus on chasing Mo Fei,” Shu Tong smiled sarcastically, “Actually, I wish he could win Mo Fei’s heart. Because in that way, my cousin would have one less enemy, don’t you think so?”

In the mocking chuckle of Shu Tong, there was still some sadness. After all, it still hurt her that Liu Xiaosheng regarded her as a toy. Thinking of this, I regretted saving Liu Xiaosheng a little. That kind of person should’ve been fed to the wolf!

“Sigh,” Shu Tong sighed and said with a sympathetic tone, “Liu Xiaosheng is a very arrogant person, his self-esteem would not even accept him losing to a matched rival, let alone losing to a person like you. You don’t have anything that can be used against Liu Xiaosheng. You don’t have money, nor are you handsome… So tell me, why does Mo Fei like you?”

I didn’t know if I had hurt Liu Xiaosheng’s self-esteem, but my self-esteem was seriously hurt by Shu Tong’s statement. However, our conversation became much more relaxed. I smiled and said, “Are you making fun of me?”

“Making fun of you? Are you saying that Mo Fei doesn’t like you?” Shu Tong stopped smiling and said faintly, “Not only Mo Fei, even that Police Officer Dong’s feeling for you also isn’t that pure, is it?”

I hurriedly said, “No. There is really nothing going on between Xiaoye and me…”

“So you admit that Mo Fei really likes you?”

“No… I mean are you trying to make fun of me to make yourself feel better?” I couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. I was so careless. I was almost tricked by her question. This woman seemed foolish, but she was actually very clever. She actually used Dong Xiaoye as a cover to test my relationship with Mo Fei!

“I’m not in the mood to make fun of you. I just want to tell you that a woman’s senses are always very sharp. Also, the main reason why I am calling you is that I want to tell you something. You need to say thank you to Officer Dong,” Shu Tong said. “She has never been to that Taekwondo gym.”

“Never been to that gym?” I was dazed, thinking of what Dong Xiaoye said before we went into the hunting park, “Really? Why would she need to lie about this?”

“What do you think?” Shu Tong asked instead of answering my question, “She said that the instructor there wanted to take advantage of her and was later taught a lesson by her. But the instructor there is a woman. Do you think she would take advantage of her? She didn’t even know this, so you can see how lame her lie was.

“In terms of the reason why she needed to do this, I think even without me telling you, you will be able to figure it out soon. She just wanted to give you some confidence because she was afraid that you would have no confidence in your heart after hearing what I said about Liu Xiaosheng. But after she gave you confidence, she herself became very worried.

“After you and Liu Xiaosheng entered the hunting park, although she was trying to dispel Yuan Yuan and Liusu’s worries, she never sat down once. Later when Manager Tian was organizing the rescue team, she insisted on going with them. She was clearly very worried about you…

“In the past, I didn’t like her and said bad things about her because she was too close to you. So for Liusu, I felt like I needed to help her to drive her away from you… But since she has helped me today, I want to return the favor as well. I suspected that with Officer Dong’s personality, unless other people told you, she would never confess it to you.

I felt a little moved, a little complicated, and a little afraid. Before I said anything, Shu Tong continued, “Even if I don’t say anything, it is not hard for other people to tell that the feeling she has for you isn’t just friendship… I saw her arguing with Min Rou secretly not far away from me in the hunting park when I tried to persuade my mom and dad to go back to the hotel first.

“Although I couldn’t hear it clearly, the vague conversation I heard was enough to make me understand that she wanted to get the police involved. However, after Min Rou explained to her that once the police were involved, there would be no room for negotiation, and you would offend many people, and it would not just be the Liu family… It was because of this reason that Officer Dong gave up in the end…”

Sure enough, there was a problem with the bottle of drink that Liu Xiaosheng spilled on me. From what Shu Tong said, it seemed that Dong Xiaoye knew about it later on from Min Rou, but she didn’t tell me… She was clearly trying to protect me. Did she really regard me as more than just a friend?…

“Sigh, I can’t tell whether you’re a good man or a bad man, and it’s a good thing or a bad thing that my cousin fell in love with you…”

Shu Tong sighed and then hung up the phone.

After that, I couldn’t fall asleep…

. . .

In the next two days, I did not go back to the company, but showed the Shu family around the city. This plan was hidden from Min Rou because I didn’t want to owe the Third Lady more favors.

But Min Rou also seemed to have a lot of things to do. Apart from making some telephone calls to me and complaining that I was deliberately avoiding her in a dissatisfied tone, she had no intention to keep pestering me. I asked her if the Liu family had caused any trouble to her, but she evaded my question.

There was once that I actually overheard the secret conversation between Dong Xiaoye and Min Rou when walking past the bathroom in my flat. From what Dong Xiaoye said I was sure that she was talking to Min Rou, but I didn’t hear enough to figure out what they were talking about. I was curious, but I did not take the initiative to ask Sister Tiger. After all, if she wanted to let me know, she wouldn’t be answering the phone in the bathroom.

Zhu Danchen had also called me during those two days. She was very excited and told me that she owed me a favor again. However, in terms of why Mo Fei invited her to Fengchang, she refused to tell me anything about it, saying that this was their agreement. Although she refused to tell me, from the fact that she was trying to persuade me to stay in Fengchang, I could vaguely guess what the agreement was.

Mo Fei eagerly wanted me to go back to the company, Dong Xiaoye also urged me to go back to Fengchang. The former said that she wanted to tell me something, and the latter said that I needed to find out more information from Mo Fei. However, I rejected both people. I told Ziyuan that I would protect her and shoulder her problem for her, but in the end, not only was I angry at the wrong person, I still didn’t find out who the Third Lady was. So how would I have the face to see her? Not to mention that awkward relationship between us…

In a blink of an eye, it was already Sunday night. Father Shu and Mother Shu’s original plan was that they would go back to the village on Monday. However, Mo Fei specially asked Yao Wan’er to come over and gave them a few shopping membership cards from Fengchang Mall.

In addition to the fact that it was very rare for Grandma Shu to come to a city once, the old woman clearly wanted to stay in the city for a few more days. So I disregarded Shu Tong’s objection and graciously invited them to stay for a few more days, saying that it would never affect my work. So Mother Shu and Father Shu decided to go back on Wednesday morning because the wheat at home was already ripe and needed someone to take care of it.

However, Grandma Shu didn’t have much time to live. She had been living in the countryside all her life. If she didn’t get to enjoy her time now, she would no longer have any chances in the future. Liusu knew that in these two days in addition to the hotel, all the costs came from my own pocket, so she didn’t understand why I wanted them to stay a few more days.

After I told her the truth about the Shu family’s visit, she also felt sad and guilty. I asked her if we should tell this to Shu Tong, but she didn’t answer me immediately, saying that she needed to think about it. Like me, Liusu also felt very complicated, not knowing if she should let Shu Tong know.

On Monday, I couldn’t find any more excuses not to return to the company. Zhang Mingjie told me that the senior executives had discussed the project leader’s position at the Monday morning meeting again. I was curious about the outcome, but I didn’t really care about that position. What I cared about was if what Zhang Mingjie said was a lie or not. If not, could there be other reasons for him to help me? Maybe it was more than the pursuit of his own interests…

It was true that I attached great importance to Zhang Mingjie because of the conflict of interests between Zhangjia and the Mo family. To put it bluntly, it was because of Mo Fei that I would pay attention to Zhang Mingjie.

But there seemed to be a law in the world that you would always bump into the person you fear the most. As soon as I went into the Investment Department, I bumped into Ziyuan.
