Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract
Chapter 189 Forced Confession
"You'll understand when you have a lover someday. Come on, let's go eat." Li Zhicheng didn't refute him. He loved Xiaohan and wanted the whole world to know. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Jingwen teasing him.
"Well, I'll wait for that day to come. If I really fall in love with a woman, I'll definitely cherish her like you do, Uncle. Uncle, if you see any great girls, remember to introduce them to me!"
"I've married the best woman in the world. You can take your time to find someone else!"
"puff!"
Li Jingwen smiled helplessly, but in his heart he was mocking him, thinking, "What will you do when your high-quality woman disappears one day?"
They had just sat down when Shen Menghan received a phone call.
Li Zhicheng was secretly delighted; Xiao Han rarely called him on her own initiative!
"Zhicheng, do you see if Linglong is here?"
"Okay, what happened to her? Did something happen?" Li Zhicheng asked, puzzled. She always cared more about Qin Fengjiao than him, so it would be a lie to say she wasn't jealous.
“I called her but she didn’t answer. If you see her, ask her to call me back.”
"Row."
Li Zhicheng stood up and walked out.
"Uncle, where are you going?" Li Jingwen asked naturally.
Li Zhicheng did not respond and strode out.
He immediately dropped his relaxed and carefree expression, staring at the private room with a calm and indifferent look.
He was burdened with the mission of revitalizing his family, so he had to get close to Li Zhicheng, gain his trust, and then step by step trample him underfoot to avenge his father and elder brother.
He received the news before he came down for dinner: his mother told him, crying, that his elder brother and sister-in-law had been sentenced to three years and three months in prison for suspected murder!
He was only slapped a few times, and he was sentenced like this!
This is clearly an attempt to wipe out their entire family! Seeing that their father is getting old, if he dies and then kicks them out of the Li family, it will be difficult for them to return in the future.
So he rushed back to deal with him, relying on their past brotherly bond to gain his trust and then sabotage him.
Qin Fengjiao ate quietly by herself. She just wanted to be alone and quiet. She was afraid that if anyone got too close to her, it would hurt them.
Li Zhicheng stepped forward and looked around for a long time before finally finding her in the crowd.
Suddenly, the atmosphere around us became strange. Everyone fell silent as if they had been frozen in place.
"Miss Qin, you should call your best friend in a bit. She needs to speak to you urgently." Li Zhicheng's voice was loud enough for everyone around her to hear.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Li." Qin Fengjiao's voice was very soft, almost inaudible.
Li Zhicheng saw her lips move, and then he thought that he might as well use his phone to call Xiaohan directly back, so that she would definitely be able to find Qin Fengjiao.
After he got through, he handed the phone to Qin Fengjiao.
She stood there stunned, and under the watchful eyes of others, she reluctantly accepted it.
"Xiaohan, what's wrong?" She lowered her voice, not wanting more people to know: "I'll call you in a bit."
Then, she hung up, handed the phone back to Li Zhicheng, and left without finishing her meal.
Li Zhicheng ignored the people around him and returned to the private room.
Li Jingwen had already asked the housekeeper to bring up the food, and they were waiting for him. The two of them then began to eat and drink.
Qin Fengjiao found a secluded corner and began pulling back.
She knew in her heart what Xiaohan wanted to see her about, and she had already resolved her problem and didn't want her to bother her again.
"Linglong, tell me your problem, and I will definitely help you." Shen Menghan was extremely determined. She was not the kind of person who would forget kindness. Although she did not know everything that Qin Fengjiao had done for her, they were best friends, so they had to face the problem together, instead of leaving her to bear it alone.
"Xiaohan, I'm really fine. Don't worry about me so much. I'll go home tonight and won't stay out anymore." She pleaded, not wanting her to call again and keep asking about this issue, as that would only hurt her heart.
"What's our relationship? If you don't tell me, I'll have someone investigate and find out!" Shen Menghan was very perceptive; she was certain that something had happened to Qin Fengjiao.
"If you don't believe me, I'll check it out. See how much money you're wasting."
"Then you have to tell me."
How can I tell you something that didn't happen?
Just as the two were about to start arguing on the phone, Shen Menghan suddenly fell silent.
Qin Fengjiao thought she had hung up in anger, only to find that the call had been going on the whole time.
"Okay, you can go to work now." Shen Menghan then hung up the phone.
Then, she tidied up the things on the table, picked up her bag, and walked out.
"Ms. Shen, there's a meeting coming up soon," Manager Yang called out to her.
"Postpone it to tomorrow morning, I have an urgent matter to attend to." Shen Menghan left without looking back; it was an unimportant meeting, nothing compared to what she was currently most concerned about.
Qin Fengjiao was still in training when she heard that someone was looking for her. She was puzzled, so she went out.
Shen Menghan was standing at the doorway, her eyes fixed on her.
"Xiaohan, what brings you here?" Qin Fengjiao raised an eyebrow, completely taken aback.
"If I don't come, you keep avoiding me. How can I not come?" Shen Menghan stepped forward, grabbed her, and pulled her away.
"I'm in class." Qin Fengjiao was afraid; she didn't want Xiaohan to see through her disguise.
"That's easy, I'll have Zhicheng tell you in a bit."
"Oh? You and Mr. Li have made up now?"
"Don't try to change the subject. Come on, let's go to his office." Without waiting for a reply, Shen Menghan dragged her directly to Li Zhicheng's office.
Qin Fengjiao was forced to sit on the sofa, and her aggressive gaze made her almost surrender.
“Miss Qin, your problems are Xiao Han’s problems, and Xiao Han’s problems are my problems. If you tell us your difficulties, we won’t stand by and watch you die. But if you keep keeping quiet and let Xiao Han live in fear, then I won’t be so polite.”
Li Zhicheng spoke very directly. He sat with her, and Qin Fengjiao looked much more haggard, her eyes empty and lifeless, completely different from before.
"I'm fine, I just have a hormonal imbalance!" Qin Fengjiao still didn't want her to know the truth!
Shen Menghan lowered her head, grabbed her head with both hands, and pulled her hair very hard. Seeing that her best friend was still evasive and unwilling to talk, she felt very helpless.
"Really?" Seeing that she was still unwilling to speak, Li Zhicheng called Li Jun in.
Qin Fengjiao bit her lip tightly. She thought that Li Jun might be able to find some clues, but she didn't want him to offend that person by investigating her. If that person went berserk, no one could withstand it.
"Xiaohan, I'm really fine, why don't you believe me?" She was distressed and torn.
"Linglong, this isn't the first time I've known you!" Shen Menghan slowly opened her head and looked directly at her, her mind slowly sorting out the recent events.
Then, she was completely stunned!
