Chapter 2539 Qin Huairu's Resentment

Qin Huairu sat at home, her face full of worry.

A few days ago, she really went all out, shifting all the blame onto Yi Zhonghai.

Dealing with Sha Zhu has never been this difficult before.

She thought that after that attack, Sha Zhu would definitely fall head over heels for her.

Little did she expect that Sha Zhu wouldn't fall for it at all, making her performance a complete waste of time.

It would be one thing if the performance was all for nothing, but the real problem is that it ruined his reputation.

Whether it was her ambiguous relationship with Yi Zhonghai or her ungrateful betrayal of him, both became stains on her reputation.

She's afraid to go out now, for fear of being pointed at and gossiped about.

Not only Qin Huairu, but the reputations of the rest of the Jia family were also bad.

Yi Zhonghai is a bad person, a bastard. Anyone can criticize Yi Zhonghai, but the Jia family has no right to do so.

Yi Zhonghai owes everyone, except the Jia family.

Even though Sha Zhu hated Yi Zhonghai so much, he didn't dare to dig up Yi Zhonghai's ashes and throw them into a stinking ditch.

Bang Geng, however, personally dug up Yi Zhonghai's ashes and threw them into a stinking ditch.

This is the most talked-about topic in Nanluoguxiang right now.

Mike's arrival broke the heavy atmosphere in the room.

Tang Yanling stood up and warmly greeted Mike: "You're here, please sit down. Let me pour you a cup of tea."

Mike smiled and sat down: "Sister-in-law, we're all family here, don't bother."

Tang Yanling said, "You said yourself that there are no outsiders. Mike and Wutong haven't contacted their families in a long time."

Do you know what he's been up to lately?

Mike said, "I heard you're involved in an international project. Don't worry."

"I'll take care of things from behind."

"Then thank you very much, sister-in-law," Tang Yanling said with a slightly ingratiating tone.

Qin Huairu looked up when she heard about Jia Wutong: "Mike, you need to pay more attention to Wutong's affairs."

The Jia family has been so humiliated by Sha Zhu that they dare not even show their faces in public. Their only hope for a turnaround lies with Jia Wutong.

Mike smiled and said, "Wutong is my nephew, I won't abandon him."

The boss also thinks highly of him. He plans to give Wutong some experience, and once this cooperation is finalized, he'll have Wutong take charge.

Although the Jia family is useless and has a bad reputation, they still have a lot of value to Mike.

Jia Wutong was the bait used to lure the Jia family.

With Jia Wutong around, there's no need to worry about the Jia family not taking things seriously.

"I came here today to ask you about someone?"

"Who?"

Mike revealed the leader's name, and then explained it to Qin Huairu in case she didn't know.

"That leader has a close relationship with the top leader. Lou Xiao'e was able to resolve the crisis by contacting him."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately guessed the reason. The incident had escalated so much that Lou Xiao'e, with a "fight to the death" mentality, had decided to sell the courtyard house.

Although the courtyard house was registered in her name, the money to buy it was used by them behind Lou Xiao'e's back.

Lou Xiao'e immediately declared that she would either hand over the house or call the police.

Once the police were called, Xiao Dang, Xiao Huaihua, and even Sha Zhu were all arrested.

In order to save Sha Zhu, Qin Huai went to the top leader and begged him to intervene.

To save Sha Zhu, the top leader personally intervened to negotiate with Lou Xiao'e.

She didn't know the specifics of the negotiation, but in the end, she got the house and the Sichuan-style restaurant.

Lou Xiao'e knew that leader most likely because it was the price the big leader paid back then.

Qin Huairu never expected that the top leader would take such good care of Lou Xiao'e.

Her heart was filled with resentment.

She was clearly the legitimate wife of Sha Zhu, and shouldn't the connections of the high-ranking leader have been given to her?

If the top leader had given her all these connections, Bang Geng wouldn't have suffered so much in the ministry and ended up being forced into early retirement.

"It must have been given to Lou Xiao'e by a high-ranking leader."

Upon hearing Qin Huairu's guess, Mike also thought of what had happened back then.

He was afraid of arousing suspicion from the higher-ups, so he didn't dare to show his face. Now it's finally confirmed.

Thinking about this, Mike felt a little regretful.

If he had known how important Sha Zhu was to the big boss, he would have dragged Sha Zhu down with him. Through Sha Zhu, he might have been able to bring the big boss down as well.

A top leader is far more important than any other leader.

Mike harbored some resentment towards Yi Zhonghai and the others. It was all because of Yi Zhonghai who described Sha Zhu as an idiot that they missed this opportunity.

He discovered that whoever got close to Yi Zhonghai was doomed.

It's too late to regret it now.

Mike could only continue to use Qin Huairu: "It seems that's how it is."

I never expected the big boss to actually value Sha Zhu so much.

Qin Huai sighed: "Of course he values ​​it. You don't know, this place, Chuanweiju, was specially reserved for Sha Zhu by the big boss."

Many people wanted to buy this land, but the top leaders stopped them all.

Later, when Sha Zhu and Lou Xiao'e opened a restaurant, the high-ranking official, without saying a word, simply ordered the premises to be vacated.

Mike nodded upon hearing this.

Chuanweiju has an extremely advantageous location, so any business there will thrive.

There are countless people vying for places like this.

The fact that the top leader specifically reserved it for Sha Zhu shows how thoughtful he was.

This is not only treating Sha Zhu as a close friend despite their age difference, but also treating Sha Zhu as their own child.

Sha Zhu is just too useless. He has such a powerful backer, yet he's ended up in such a miserable state.

"Do you know that leader?"

Qin Huai thought to herself, "What do I know? Don't underestimate her just because she's Sha Zhu's wife; she's taken care of high-ranking officials a few times."

But every time the high-ranking leader met with his friends, he would have his wife stop her.

On one occasion, she went with Lou Xiao'e. The high-ranking leader took Lou Xiao'e to meet a friend, but made her accompany Sha Zhu to cook in the kitchen.

This is also why she hates the top leader.

That's why she misunderstood the top leader.

Lou Xiao'e is a successful entrepreneur with numerous investments in the country.

The high-ranking leader brought Lou Xiao'e along to discuss investment.

Qin Huairu's identity is just that of an ordinary housewife.

How did the high-ranking leader take her to meet his friends?

Furthermore, Qin Huairu possesses an innate allure. She pretends to be an innocent, pure woman whenever she sees a man.

Although the top leader believed that Qin Huairu, as Sha Zhu's wife, was a filial and good person.

But others won't think that way.

The top leader can't possibly blame Qin Huairu just because of her appearance.

Appearance is appearance, and character is character.

As a close friend of Sha Zhu despite their age difference, the high-ranking leader would not judge Sha Zhu's wife by her appearance.

Qin Huairu didn't know him, but instinctively he didn't want to tell the truth.

"You mean him? I've met him once. You know, the big boss likes the dishes that Sha Zhu makes."

Whenever close friends come over, they'll ask Shazhu to cook.

I will go with you.

But he's a big boss, and I'm just a housewife.

They just exchanged a few polite words with me.

Aside from leaders who frequently visit high-ranking officials' homes, other leaders might only exchange a few words with them.

If Qin Huai were to say that he was familiar with certain leaders, Mike would definitely be suspicious.

But her words dispelled Mike's doubts.

Mike thought it made sense; Qin Huairu was presented to the public as a filial woman.

Even the most incompetent leader wouldn't let such a person know too much.

If Qin Huai could even meet those people, that would be quite good.

This is because Sha Zhu has a lot of influence; without Sha Zhu, Qin Huairu would never have even seen those people.

In contrast, Lou Xiao'e was different. Lou Xiao'e was a Hong Kong businesswoman investing in mainland China.

Having this status grants one the right to associate with those leaders. (End of Chapter)
