They wanted you to divorce and leave, but you became a rich woman's dream man.

Chapter 304 [Must Read! Awesome!] Zhou Shumei made Zhang Qinglan submit to Gao Jun?

Ye Xiaowei felt conflicted at this moment. She really wanted to ask Gao Jun what the red thing on his lips was.
Is it a lipstick mark?

If it's a lipstick mark, is it Josie Lin's?

But she didn't have the courage; she didn't know how to take the initiative to ask.

So she sat in the passenger seat, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, the other group members returned, excitedly discussing the content of the interview they had just conducted.

One of the classmates even asked Qiao Xilin, "Xilin, how many people did you just discuss interviewing?"

Josie Lin replied, "I was feeling a little dizzy just now, so I didn't interview many people. I'm sorry everyone, I just got back to my car to rest."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaowei frowned slightly, which further convinced her of her sixth sense.

When they got back to school, Gao Jun noticed that Ye Xiaowei's mood had changed, so after everyone got off the bus, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Xiaowei looked at him and then took out a pack of tissues from her pocket.

He then wiped his mouth, glanced at Gao Jun, and got out of the car.

Gao Jun saw the lipstick on the tissue and didn't expect that Qiao Xilin had left something on him.

"This girl is really cunning." Although Gao Jun didn't know whether Qiao Xilin did it intentionally or unintentionally, Ye Xiaowei must have guessed something.

So he didn't say much.

He soon drove back to the main branch of Da Chuan Yan Hot Pot Restaurant.

As he was about to go in, a new waiter reminded him, "Sir, there is a queue at Da Chuan Yan Hot Pot. Please take a number and wait in line."

Gao Jun was about to explain.

A waiter nearby quickly reminded her, "Xiaoju, are you stupid? This is our boss."

The new employee, Xiaoju, naturally didn't know that Gao Jun was the owner of Dachuanyan Hot Pot.

Upon hearing this, she immediately looked at Gao Jun in surprise and said, "I'm sorry, boss, I didn't know you were our boss. I apologize."

Gao Jun laughed and said, "It's alright. You did a great job just now. No matter who comes, they should take a number and wait in line. That's the right thing to do. You can go about your business now. By the way, where did Manager Chen go?"

"Manager Chen is patrolling the second floor. Should I call him down for you?" Xiaoju asked.

"Then I'll go upstairs to find him."

With that, Gao Jun went upstairs to the second floor.

Chen Haoran was busy with something when he saw Gao Jun arrive, and he was a little surprised: "I didn't expect our busiest person to come and inspect."

Gao Jun waved his hand and said, "I just happened to be passing by and wanted to see if you were slacking off. You're making tens of thousands of yuan a month from me."

"Look at what you're saying. When have I ever slacked off? I've treated Da Chuan Yan Hotpot as my career, so you can check it all you want," Chen Haoran explained, patting his chest.

Gao Jun was just joking, then said, "I was just saying, why are you so excited?"

"Of course, you just laze around all day while I'm working myself to the bone, and I still don't know whose property this is."

"You can't say that, after all, you also received a share of the profits here," Gao Jun said with a smile.

Chen Haoran then asked, "By the way, when are Sun Miao and Liang Yaqi having a baby?"

"My due date is still over a month away, and I might be admitted to the hospital two weeks earlier," Gao Jun explained.

"That's definitely the right thing to do. After all, as time goes on, the belly will definitely get bigger and bigger, and it will be even more inconvenient then. It's better to let the hospital's professionals take care of it."

“I might hire a postpartum nanny to take care of them, and I’ll be staying there often, so I’ll leave the company hot pot restaurant to you. I won’t be coming here as often.”

Chen Haoran then complained, "You talk as if you're the one who's always getting things done, but it's me who has to manage things every day."

Finally, he asked again, "Have you thought of a name for the child?"

Gao Jun shook his head and said, "No, I don't even know if it's a boy or a girl."

This surprised Chen Haoran greatly. He widened his eyes and asked, "You still don't know if they're having a boy or a girl? You should at least send a few red envelopes to the doctor and ask them to tell you. If all else fails, go abroad; they'll definitely tell you then."

Gao Jun replied, "Actually, I also thought about finding out the baby's gender in advance, but the two expectant mothers firmly disagreed. They felt that the surprise should be saved for the last moment and insisted on opening the blind box."

Chen Haoran laughed: "I didn't expect you to be so easily swayed by two expectant mothers. But their thinking is right. After all, if you know in advance whether it's a boy or a girl, your mindset might change. If it's not the gender you want, you might feel disappointed. I think Sun Miao and Yaqi did a great job."

"When did you start speaking up for them?" Gao Jun teased.

"At least Yaqi helps me when I'm overwhelmed with work, unlike you, who's always busy chasing girls." Chen Haoran, as Gao Jun's brother, naturally kept complaining.

Gao Jun shook his head and said, "You don't understand. Sometimes women can help me a lot in my career. I'm laying the groundwork for my career."

"Yeah, yeah, you handle the flirting and chasing girls, I'll do the hard work that'll leave me exhausted," Chen Haoran complained.

Gao Jun naturally knew that Chen Haoran wouldn't care too much, but he still said, "Alright, alright, just to encourage you, I've decided to give you an extra five thousand yuan in salary next month."

"Okay, you said it, but don't regret it." Chen Haoran was also happy: "I've found a neighborhood in Shanghai that I like. Once I've saved enough money this year, I'll pay the down payment."

Hearing this, Gao Jun, who was about to leave, turned around and looked at Chen Haoran, saying, "Which building in the complex do you want to buy?"

Chen Haoran replied, "Fulu Community."

"What's the average price we need?" Gao Jun asked.

"At 50,000 yuan per square meter, I'm looking at a four-bedroom, two-living-room apartment, which is over 140 square meters in total. Even the down payment would be quite a lot."

After hearing this, Gao Jun calmly said, "I'll pay the down payment for you first. You can renovate and move in first, so that the general manager of a chain store won't be living in cheap rented rooms while relying on others."

Chen Haoran was very surprised when he heard this; he didn't expect Gao Jun to say such a thing.

He asked tentatively, "Brother Jun, are you telling the truth? You're not just kidding me, are you?"

Gao Jun then said, "When did I lie to you? Besides, the down payment isn't that much money. Just consider it as your early salary for working hard for me over the past two years. You don't need to be too grateful to me."

Chen Haoran laughed and scolded, "I won't thank you at all. I've been working like a dead dog these past two years. I deserve this."

Although he said that, before Gao Jun left, Chen Haoran still said gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Jun. I may not be able to pay back this much money in a short time, but don't worry, I will pay it back as soon as possible."

Gao Jun calmly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, take your time."

In fact, Gao Jun didn't need him to repay any money.

In Gao Jun's eyes, when he was divorced and had nothing, it was Chen Haoran who took him in and even made him deliver packages when he opened a courier shop.

He also has a lot of time to spend with Gao Yingying, and he earns nearly 10,000 yuan a month.

This was a real lifesaver for Gao Jun, who was down on his luck at the time.

Now that Gao Jun is rich, he naturally helps Chen Haoran with a small problem without much effort.

Therefore, Gao Jun would never accept Chen Haoran's money.

Gao Jun then drove away, and Chen Haoran's mood improved considerably. He then replied in the work group: "Everyone stay for a late-night snack tonight. It's on me—no, not me, it's on Boss Gao."

This statement immediately garnered widespread praise.

Thank you, Manager Chen.

Thank you, Boss Gao.

Thank you, Manager Chen and Boss Gao.

Gao Jun was pleased to see these messages.

He then went to Zhou Shumei's house. At that time, Zhou Shumei was packing her things.

Seeing this, Gao Jun asked, "Where are you going?"

Zhou Shumei replied, "Of course, I'll go see my former father-in-law."

She explained, "Lin Zhaodong was so angry that he was hospitalized, so I have to go see him. He was so arrogant before, now I want to see what his arrogance is really like."

Gao Jun didn't expect Zhou Shumei to be so vengeful, and even went to the hospital to mock Lin Zhaodong.

So he said, "How about I give you a ride?"

Zhou Shumei asked, "Are you going too?"

Gao Jun replied, "Of course, you're going to mock him anyway. What if he gets angry and hits you? I should at least be there to take care of you."

Zhou Shumei laughed after hearing this: "He hit me too. Even though he's in the hospital now, he can still hit me."

However, Zhou Shumei still agreed to let Gao Jun go along.

Before leaving, Zhou Shumei swallowed hard, and then her eyes revealed a longing look.

Gao Jun knew what Zhou Shumei wanted to do, so he picked her up in a princess carry and carried her to the bedroom.

The "Fairy Scattering Flowers" spinning move that Zhou Shumei used earlier had truly opened Gao Jun's eyes.

So today, Gao Jun also wants to experience it again.

After an hour of loving intimacy.

Zhou Shumei and Gao Jun came out of the bedroom.

Zhou Shumei was in a great mood, not only because she had just experienced what ultimate pleasure was, but also because she was about to get close to Lin Zhaodong and unleash her ultimate attack to thoroughly mock him.

When Gao Jun set off for the hospital, he wanted to send a message to Zhang Qinglan, but after thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate and didn't send it.

Meanwhile, Zhang Qinglan was taking care of Lin Zhaodong in his hospital room.

These past few days in the hospital have made her much better than when she first heard that Lin Chen had been taken to the police station.

He ate the orange that Zhang Qinglan had peeled, and then said, "Lin Chen is just like his father."

He then muttered a few more words, but Zhang Qinglan did not reply, which made Lin Zhaodong glance in the direction beside her.

He noticed that Zhang Qinglan was actually daydreaming, and that she had almost completely peeled the apple without realizing it.

So Lin Zhaodong asked, "What are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."

In her panic, Zhang Qinglan accidentally cut her finger, causing it to bleed.

She immediately screamed and pressed her fingers down.

Lin Zhaodong then complained, "How can you not even do this simple thing right? You're really stupid."

Zhang Qinglan felt even more aggrieved. She had come to visit early in the morning, and had even peeled oranges and cut fruit for him.

Instead of being grateful, Lin Zhaodong criticized him.

Zhang Qinglan said angrily, "Then you can peel it yourself and eat it; I don't care anymore."

After saying that, she covered her injured finger and walked out.

She stood alone in the corridor, looking out the window at the scenery, thinking of Gao Jun.

Yes, she remembered the time they spent together at the hotel a few days ago. Every experience she had with Zhang Qinglan haunted her.

"I wonder what he's doing?" Zhang Qinglan muttered to herself.

Just then, a familiar voice came from over.

Where is Lin Zhaodong's room?

"It seems to be in 605."

Upon hearing Gao Jun and Zhou Shumei's voices, Zhang Qinglan immediately turned her head to look into the distance.

Sure enough, Gao Jun and Zhou Shumei were walking towards him, chatting and laughing, and they looked very well-matched.

If it were according to her previous thinking, Zhang Qinglan would only think that Zhou Shumei was an unchaste woman with no sense of shame when she saw such a scene.

But now Zhang Qinglan couldn't help but envy Zhou Shumei's life.

Zhou Shumei has now divorced Lin Beishan, and Lin Beishan has been arrested for intentional injury.

Zhou Shumei can be said to have no one to stop her, and she can boldly pursue her own happiness.

But now Zhang Qinglan also has to take care of Lin Zhaodong, who is yelling at her in the ward.

The contrast between the past and the present clearly caused Zhang Qinglan some psychological imbalance.

Gao Jun looked up and noticed Zhang Qinglan not far away.

So he waved his hand and said, "Sister Qinglan, what a coincidence!"

Zhou Shumei smiled when she saw Zhang Qinglan and said, "Good morning, Sister Qinglan."

Looking at the two of them, Zhang Qinglan asked, "Why are you both at the hospital today?"

Zhou Shumei replied, "We came here today specifically to visit Mr. Lin Zhaodong. Although he did some things that were not conducive to unity before, in my heart, he has always been a responsible father-in-law. So when I heard that he had fainted and was hospitalized, I brought some fruit to visit him."

Zhang Qinglan remained unmoved upon hearing this, knowing that Zhou Shumei intended to thoroughly humiliate Lin Zhaodong through this incident.

So she pointed to that room and said, "Lin Zhaodong is inside. Go in and see him."

Zhou Shumei then looked at Gao Jun and said, "It's not appropriate for you to visit Lin Zhaodong. You just wait at the door, I'll go in."

Zhou Shumei then went inside, while Gao Jun looked at Zhang Qinglan.

He noticed that Zhang Qinglan was always covering her hand with a tissue.

There was also a little blood on the side.

So he asked, "What happened to your hand?"

Zhang Qinglan shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just accidentally got cut by a knife."

Upon hearing this, Gao Jun reached out and said, "Let me take a look."

Because he knew that Zhou Shumei couldn't come out so quickly, he had plenty of time to deal with the matter.

Zhang Qinglan then obediently took out a tissue and handed it to Gao Jun.

When Gao Jun saw the cut on his finger, he said, "How about I get you some iodine and buy you a band-aid?"

Zhang Qinglan wanted to say no, but then she thought about how well Zhou Shumei was taken care of by him, and she felt a little envious.

So she took the initiative and said, "Okay."

Gao Jun smiled after hearing this, and then went downstairs to buy iodine and band-aids.

As for Zhou Shumei in the ward, she looked at Lin Zhaodong and said, "Old man, if you ask me, you shouldn't waste Qinglan's youth. You should let her go. If you really can't handle it, I'll introduce Qinglan to Gao Jun!"

Lin Zhaodong was furious after hearing this.
