After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.
Chapter 111: Trapped in Two Difficulties
At this moment, Li Haokai and Lin Xiaoshan were no match for Fu Cheng's words.
Both of them felt very uncomfortable with what was said, but they couldn't find any strong words to retaliate.
In the end, I could only make an excuse to leave quickly.
"Well, brother-in-law, my colleague and I have to rush back to the company, so we won't talk much more. We can chat another time."
Fu Cheng hummed in response, then turned his head away, no longer looking at the two of them.
Li Haokai and his assistant didn't dare to approach each other again until they got back into the car.
Li Haokai gently took Lin Xiaoshan's hand and comforted her, "Xiaoshan, don't be angry. My brother-in-law is just arrogant because he works at a good company. It's not worth getting angry with him."
Lin Xiaoshan pulled her hand back half-coquettishly and half-angrily, and said in a coquettish voice, "Don't call me Xiaoshan, so that others won't misunderstand. From now on, when no one is around, you can only call me Shanshan."
Li Haokai pulled his assistant's hand back and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Whatever you say, I'll listen to you."
He is now completely powerless against his little assistant; his heart melts whenever she acts cute.
Seeing her usually authoritative supervisor so submissive to her, Lin Xiaoshan smiled sweetly.
She leaned close to Li Haokai's arm and said, "Do you think your brother-in-law already knows about us? I felt there was something fishy about what he just said."
Li Haokai was stunned for a moment, then said, "Impossible. With his arrogant and conceited nature, if he really found out, he would definitely expose me to my face. How could he possibly give me face?"
"Your brother-in-law does look quite aloof, but he's quite handsome, and has a great physique..."
Lin Xiaoshan couldn't help but praise him; after all, any woman would be attracted to that man.
"Go find him, handsome!"
Li Haokai's face immediately darkened, and he brushed Lin Xiaoshan's hand away.
He already harbored extreme hatred towards Fu Cheng, and now hearing his woman praise him only made him feel more resentful.
"I'm just giving an objective evaluation, don't be angry. No matter how handsome he is, he's just an ice-cold guy. I wouldn't be interested in him. I still prefer a gentle and considerate man like you."
As Lin Xiaoshan spoke, she pressed her face against Li Haokai's chest.
The man's expression softened somewhat.
"The reason Fu Cheng is so arrogant now is because he has a respectable job. Let's see how arrogant he is when he gets laid off and loses his job!"
Li Haokai knew that the current economic climate was not good, and many companies were laying off employees.
His expression gradually turned cold, and he secretly vowed, "I'll make you one of those laid off. Just you wait and see."
Large companies value their reputation above all else. At this point, a fabricated anonymous letter would be all it takes to get Fu Cheng fired.
These days, it's easy to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of legwork to refute them.
Lin Xiaoshan leaned against Li Haokai's chest, her voice soft, "He's still your brother-in-law, are you really hoping he'll get laid off and lose his job?"
Li Haokai said coldly, "Just because he is now doesn't mean he will be in the future."
"That's true, anyway, after your divorce, he won't be your brother-in-law anymore."
"When are you finally getting a divorce? I don't want to have to sneak around like this anymore."
Lin Xiaoshan shook Li Haokai's arm and took the opportunity to press him for answers.
"Honey, the time has come. Divorce is just a matter of time. I'm sorry you had to go through all this today. Haven't you always wanted a bag? We'll go buy you one later."
"Really?" Lin Xiaoshan excitedly gave him a kiss.
Li Haokai's heart immediately stirred with excitement.
He hasn't done *that* for so long. When Lu Shuyao was pregnant, she was afraid it would affect the baby and wouldn't let him touch her. Now that they've drifted apart and argue from time to time, she's even more reluctant to let him touch her.
Sometimes he felt like he was about to explode from holding it in.
Li Haokai's hands unconsciously began to move up and down.
However, just as he was about to vent his anger, Lin Xiaoshan stopped him at the perfect moment.
"Didn't we already agree that the most precious moments should be reserved for the most memorable ones?"
Li Haokai was passively stopped, his mouth was dry, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he found the woman in front of him even more attractive.
He eagerly awaited the moment when he would completely conquer and win her over.
……
Time flies, and it's Friday already.
In the morning, Lu Shiyi was focused on her own work in the study hall when Tang Yiran quietly floated up to her.
"Eleventh!"
Lu Shiyi was so frightened by the sudden sound that her soul almost left her body.
"Tang Yiran! If I had a heart condition, this would be murder."
Tang Yiran sat down in front of her friend with a grin, "I only dared to do this because I know you're as strong as an ox and as brave as a beetle. I also wanted to give you a little boost."
Lu Shiyi glanced at her and said, "Are you praising me? It sounds worse than being insulted."
"Are you feeling unwell? Well, you won't feel unwell anymore when you hear the good news I have for you~"
Lu Shiyi teased, "What good news can you bring? Did you meet your Mr. Right on a blind date??"
"Tch, you'd be better off if you didn't mention the word 'blind date'."
Tang Yiran excitedly pulled out two expensive-looking coupons and handed them to Lu Shiyi.
"Look, what is this?"
Lu Shiyi glanced at it, not seeing anything else clearly, only noticing a striking red number at the top, "".
"what is this???"
She took it curiously.
"This is the health club I frequent. They're having a once-in-a-lifetime promotional event, offering a variety of high-end facial treatments plus a full-body spa. How about it? Doesn't it sound tempting?"
"There was only one extra spot, and you were the first person I thought of. Isn't that great?"
Lu Shiyi held the coupon in her hand, her eyes gradually brightening. "You mean, all the projects mentioned here are free? You don't have to pay a single penny?"
"Absolutely! They make way more money off me than that all year round. We should take advantage of this opportunity, and we should both take advantage of it together."
Lu Shiyi nodded and said with a grin, "Yeah, we have to go! When are we going? Anytime is fine?"
Tang Yiran pointed to the date at the bottom of the coupon, "How could it be anytime? The event lasts for half a month, but the morning and afternoon sessions are already scheduled. These two coupons are for Saturday morning."
"Happy weekend! Weekends are the perfect time to relax."
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, the smile on Lu Shiyi's face began to freeze.
Immediately, she took out her phone, opened WeChat, and scrolled through her chat history with her husband.
The last glimmer of hope was extinguished...
The two times completely overlapped.
Lu Shiyi glanced at the coupon in her hand, then looked at the chat history on WeChat.
Um, she was really tempted by this spa. It's free, it would be such a shame to miss out.
But my husband made the agreement with me first, wouldn't it be bad to break it?
At this moment, Lu Shiyi was caught in a dilemma...
