Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss - Chapter 376
Chapter 376: Chapter 350: Unbearable Eyes (Thanks to Youyou Xiaomihu’s Hetian Jade + Update)
“No, I’m indirectly telling you that I’m not an easy-going person, let alone the fact that she’s not just putting sand in my eyes, but stones.”
How did Xiao Qian find out that her aunt was the one who spread the news of her abduction?
Because of the kidnapping incident, she ruled out the possibility of an internal informant among Yu Minglang’s brothers.
Considering all existing conditions, which of them had information about the internal situations of the Yu family, and knew the best way to penetrate the news was through gossip-loving elderly people with atrophy?
In the end, only her aunt had the conditions to betray Xiao Qian.
The location of Xiao Qian’s uncle was exactly where they had to pass by. Yu Minglang, in order to find Xiao Qian, had to deal with his uncle, demanding access to surveillance footage.
When his uncle returned, he must have inadvertently mentioned something,
and his aunt took it to heart.
She knew the limits of the situation and did not spread the news publicly but only among relatives, intending to make Xiao Qian lose the opportunity to marry into the Yu family.
However, what Aunt didn’t expect was that Yu Minglang’s mother happened to be a woman who cared very much about such things, and the more she tried to spread rumors, the more determined Mother Yu became. All the members of the Yu family, led by Yu Minglang, firmly stood by Xiao Qian’s side, making internal instigation useless.
Although external relatives knew about it, Xiao Qian immediately dealt with the hostage situation and was accidentally broadcasted by a journalist. The Yu brothers immediately managed the crisis in a textbook manner, calming it
down.
Effective crisis management means making the right judgments at the first moment when a problem arises. After the live broadcast, bad events were turned into good ones. With a little guidance, the focus was shifted.
Yu Mingxi did not know what Xiao Qian had done and was surprised by her straightforwardness.
Does Xiao Qian’s words imply that she admitted it?
“What did you do to her? I saw that her dark circles were almost as severe as
mine.”
Yu Mingxi saw her aunt looking exhausted at the engagement banquet, with terrifyingly dark circles under her eyes, and her mental state was much worse than before.
“I just chose a gentler method to return the favor, compared to what she did to me. But I don’t know what Ming Lang did to her.”
The deal Xiao Qian made with Yu Minglang back then was for him to do his own thing, and she would do hers, without interfering and stopping when the point was made.
Xiao Qian used Zheng Xu’s “engagement gift” to torment her aunt for almost a month.
“1 found out that I don’t quite understand your thoughts. You’re different from anyone else I’ve ever met.” Yu Mingxi looked at Xiao Qian, not knowing the mood behind her frank revelation.
“All you need to know is that I am the person your brother chose and that I won’t hurt him. That’s enough. Now that we’ve discussed my issues, let’s talk about yours. How long have you suffered from insomnia?”
In the study room, Yu Minglang and Boss Yu sat cross-legged facing each other. On the small table of the Luohan bed was Father Yu’s clandestine wine, with a glass for each brother.
“When did you find out about Aunt’s involvement?” Boss Yu asked.
Yu Minglang took a sip. He had already drunk a lot during the engagement banquet, and this was just a filler.
“We figured it out after dealing with the hostage incident with Xiao Mei.”
Yu Minglang hadn’t been idle since then.
Eldest Brother sighed, “No wonder Uncle didn’t come today. I heard that he might be retiring early.”
Although Eldest Brother suspected that Aunt might be involved in spreading the rumors, he didn’t expect Yu Minglang to be so thorough. Yu Minglang did this behind the family’s back and didn’t even consult with his eldest brother.
“It’s a good thing to retire early. It’s better than being tormented by the family’s troublemakers and not having a peaceful retirement. I gave him a choice, but if he couldn’t give me a satisfactory answer, I’ll solve the problem my own way.”
“Aunt doesn’t know it was you who did it, does she? When I think of her reaction when she finds out, I get a headache…”
“It doesn’t matter if she knows. You have to pay the price for doing something wrong. How can Xiao Mei trust me if I don’t handle this matter properly? I can protect the peace of thousands of families, but how can 1 not protect the only woman under my wings?”
Eldest Brother didn’t immediately refute Ming Lang’s words. The issue wasn’t caused by Youngest Brother Yu.
The Yu family members all had a protective streak.
“Have you thought about how you’ll handle it if she complains to Grandpa and Grandma later?”
“Let her cause trouble if she wants. As my biological aunt, if it weren’t for that relationship, I would’ve demolished her house by now. If this matter isn’t restrained, what will happen to my Xiao Mei?”
In Yu Minglang’s clear-cut world, there is no forgiveness after being hurt.
Although his Xiao Mei was well-blessed and turned peril into safety.
But what if Xiao Mei wasn’t smart?
Would she have to live a lifetime with him under a cloud of scandal?
A woman, even if mentally strong enough to face all the controversy, but the damage of the rumors can haunt her for a lifetime. Chen Xiaoqian may not care, but Yu Minglang must.
So when both Xiaoqian and he guessed the mastermind behind the curtain, Yu Minglang immediately went to his uncle.
Uncle, not as strong as before, although there were still a few years left to retire, was pressured directly by Yu Minglang and could only make the decision to retire early.
“Aunt must not know about it, otherwise, she would have kicked up a fuss today.” Eldest Brother thought that his brother’s wedding, although dramatic, had the best possible outcome.
“Even if Grandpa and Grandma come to me about this, I’m not afraid. They didn’t raise their child properly, and now they want to argue? Yes, she’s their only daughter and may have been spoiled, but she’s grown up now and still so unreasonable, doing things entirely based on her personal preferences. She’s been spoiled by them from a young age. Is everyone in the world her parents who have to tolerate her?”
Yu Minglang was completely unyielding. Even if the family elders came to question him, he wouldn’t fear them.
“You didn’t do anything wrong. The things we have found out about were from our own relatives. If someone from outside finds out about it… Aunt’s temper, if Uncle continues to indulge her, this kind of recklessness could cause trouble instead.” Eldest Brother analyzed, siding with his younger brother.
At first, it seemed like younger brother had gone too far.
However, since Yu Minglang had done it and had sufficient reasons, Eldest Brother began to find various justifications for his younger brother’s actions and, within the shortest possible time, thought of how he should cooperate with him during the follow-up development..
