Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

"Grandma, thank you for your hard work." Li Zhicheng said sincerely. He had heard his father mention his grandmother's hardships before, but he didn't know that she had single-handedly supported the family.

"Yes, as long as you and your father are safe and sound, even if I go to the underworld right now, I will be able to face your grandfather again." Runqiong looked particularly forlorn when she said this. What did this woman gain by guarding her whole life?

As her son grew up and entered his own world, she began to retire from public life and help Lu Fen take care of Zhicheng. But as Zhicheng grew up as well, she became even more lonely and isolated.

"Grandma, don't talk nonsense. You still have us. I will definitely take good care of you." Li Zhicheng felt sad. He had been busy with work and neglected the old lady.

"Grandma knows you're a good child. Grandma just hopes you two will have a child soon, then my wish will be fulfilled." Runqiong repeated again. She just wanted to finish everything she needed to do so that she would have no regrets.

"Okay." Li Zhicheng agreed without hesitation this time. He finally understood why his grandmother was so anxious. She would feel more at ease if there was a child by her side.

Although Shen Menghan was also saddened for her grandmother, she did not agree. Given her relationship with Li Zhicheng, if she continued to appease the elderly, how awkward would it be if they met again on the day she passed away?

Grandma lived alone in a small bungalow on the right side of the villa. She liked this kind of house and stubbornly stayed there despite Li Zhicheng's objections.

Now they are bringing her back, and although they pass by the main house, they don't have to go inside.

Xu Jingjing and the others inside spotted the figures passing by and immediately stood up and walked out. Their movements were so synchronized that one might suspect they had been trained.

"Mom, you're back." Lu Fen spoke first, as she was of a much higher generation than the others as a daughter-in-law.

Runqiong looked at her, a clear look of disgust flashing in her eyes. Shen Menghan was even more puzzled when she saw this. Since her grandmother was all alone, why did she have to make things difficult for Lu Fen?

Runqiong glanced at Lu Fen dismissively, mumbled an "Mmm," and prepared to lie down. She didn't want to deal with people she didn't want to bother with, no matter how much they messed around.

Shen Menghan looked at Huang Ju. She was about the same age as her grandmother, but she looked much younger. And Lu Fen, she seemed to be about the same age as Huang Ju too. Sometimes she was confused. Since Li Dahai was already over sixty years old, why hadn't he retired and was still working at Li's Group?

That's because Li Dahai was unwilling to give up and still wanted to stay and fight for a place for Li Guowei!

That's even stranger. How come Li Guowei is about the same age as Li Zhicheng? No, he's even younger than Li Zhicheng!

Does this mean that Li Dahai also married late?

The relationships within this family are truly unfathomable. Never mind, I'd better just take care of myself.

"Sister-in-law, Jingjing and I came here to chat with you. If you're tired, we'll come back yesterday morning." Huang Ju was good at reading people's expressions. She thought that with so many people present, Runqiong probably wouldn't give them a hard time. But with so many people around, there were some things she and Xu Jingjing couldn't say out loud.

"Go do what you're supposed to do, don't get in my way, I want to sleep." Runqiong waved her hand, and Wang Sao, who was taking care of her, came forward to help her, also chiming in, "It's time for the old lady to take a bath and go to bed, you should all go back."

"Grandma, let's go back first." Shen Menghan couldn't wait to see these people again, so she walked out after saying that.

"Grandma, remember to call me anytime if you need anything." After saying that, Li Zhicheng waved to his grandmother and chased after Shen Menghan.

"What are you all standing there for? Get out!" Runqiong shouted when she saw that they were still standing there.

Lu Fen and the others waited for her all night, only to receive this one sentence. She was angry but had nowhere to vent her frustration, so she could only leave dejectedly.

Shen Menghan walked quickly and returned to their home in the blink of an eye. Li Zhicheng closed the door behind her, and the two went upstairs together.

She walked up the stairs very quickly, as if someone was chasing her.

Afterwards, I quickly took a shower, threw my clothes into the washing machine, and lay down on the bed to rest.

When Li Zhicheng approached, she had already closed her eyes and was truly asleep.

He gently covered her with the blanket, then went out, tiptoed to close the door, and went to the study to handle some matters.

Qin Fengjiao tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She was thinking about how to get rid of that person. He had been following her like a shadow for so many years. If it weren't for him dragging her down, she would not only be in such a miserable state, but also penniless.

Who can she turn to for help now? She doesn't want her friends to know about her shameful deeds, and she can't trust strangers.

After much thought, she actually thought of Li Jun. He seemed like a dull person on the surface, but the fact that he had followed Li Zhicheng for so many years proved that he was quite capable.

If he could help, perhaps he could save her from this predicament.

Early in the morning, she arrived at the company, clocked in, and then called Li Jun to invite him to have breakfast together in the cafeteria.

Li Jun went to the appointment before it was time for work, wanting to see what she had to say.

Qin Fengjiao stared at him intently, her voice low: "This is the breakfast I bought, it's on me."

Li Jun let out a cold laugh. The person who borrowed money from him yesterday was treating him to breakfast today. What kind of operation is this?

"Just say what's on your mind, no need to beat around the bush." ​​Li Jun stared at her, sensing something was wrong as she seemed distracted.

Seeing how readily he agreed, Qin Fengjiao said directly, "I want you to help me deal with someone. After it's done, I'll give you ten thousand."

"You think you can hire me for ten thousand?" Li Jun scoffed. Was his worth only ten thousand?

"You, I only asked you for help because I think you're a good person. I'm just a low-level worker, earning a few thousand a month. After living expenses, I can't save much money. This 10,000 is already too much." Isn't she short of money? If she had money, why would she need to live a frugal life?

"Sorry, then you should hire someone worth ten thousand to do things for you." Li Jun stood up and was about to leave.

Qin Fengjiao subconsciously stood up and reached out to push him back into place, still lowering her voice as she said, "I only trust your character. If you don't help me, I'll die."

"Oh, then come find me when you're about to die." Li Jun's eyes were cold, sensing that Qin Fengjiao had ulterior motives for using him.

"If you don't help me, I'm about to die. Are you really going to just stand by and watch me die?" Tears welled up in her eyes. She couldn't believe Li Jun could be so cold-blooded.

"Oh, we have no reason to talk, yet you've come looking for me time and time again. Isn't that ridiculous?" Li Jun still didn't want to get involved in the trouble. Qin Fengjiao's appearance didn't suggest she was a well-behaved girl. The more he interacted with her, the more accurate his guess became.
