Financial success and romantic happiness
Chapter 9 My Cousin's Past
Lin Chuan could see a group of young men who were clearly involved in organized crime walking quickly toward him and Qin Rou.
There were seven young men in total. The one in the lead had a side-parted hairstyle, was smoking, and was blowing smoke out of his nostrils and mouth, clearly a seasoned smoker.
When the group saw Qin Rou, the cousin's wife, they all grinned mischievously. The young man with a side-parted hairstyle and triangular eyes waved and greeted her in a nonchalant manner, "Hey, President Qin, what a coincidence, running into you here."
Qin Rou sneered, "Yeah, I didn't expect you guys to come eat too."
The young man with his hair parted slightly, his tone laced with sarcasm, said, "What else would we be here for? To eat, of course."
Lin Chuan couldn't help but frown.
After all, he could sense that there was obviously some conflict between this young man and Qin Rou.
Lin Chuan decided to wait and see what was going on.
Qin Rou continued with a cold laugh, "I especially hate the smell of smoke. Besides, this is a place to eat, so let's not talk about unhappy things."
The young man with his hair parted said, "Hey, why should you get to decide what I do? Just because you tell me not to mention it doesn't mean I'll stop!"
Qin Rou's cold smile deepened.
At this moment, the young man, seeing that Qin Rou was a seasoned veteran and his attacks were ineffective, looked at Lin Chuan and sneered, "Oh, Qin Rou, when did you start keeping this gigolo?"
Qin Rou immediately sneered, "What I do is none of your business! Come here, all of you, don't test my patience!"
The young man with parted hair exhaled another puff of smoke: "Your patience? I'd like to test it today."
A cold glint appeared in Qin Rou's eyes.
Although Lin Chuan was unclear about the relationship between Qin Rou and these people, he still walked up to Qin Rou, protected her behind him, and coldly looked at the parted-haired youth.
The young man with parted hair looked at Lin Chuan as if he were an idiot, and grinned maliciously, "Pretty boy, what's your name? When did you and Qin Rou start messing around together?"
Lin Chuan gave the parted-hair youth a cold look but didn't say anything.
The young man with parted hair raised an eyebrow, raised his hand, and slapped Lin Chuan.
After all, this pretty boy needs to be taught a lesson, or he'll never recognize his place again.
Lin Chuan suddenly narrowed his eyes and quickly pointed his finger under the armpit of the parted-hair youth. The parted-hair youth immediately cried out in pain, not expecting this kid to have some skills.
Lin Chuan also learned medicine from his grandfather, as well as many self-defense techniques, including acupressure and martial arts.
According to his grandfather, the world is a dangerous place, and Lin Chuan is very kind, so he is bound to be bullied.
Having the means to protect oneself when being bullied is a sign of taking responsibility for oneself.
Lin Chuan is very smart. He has mastered the knowledge his grandfather taught him and his strength is actually quite great, even his grandfather didn't know that.
The young man with the parted hair was annoyed and shouted angrily, "Damn it, you're trying to play dirty tricks on me. You just wait and see."
Lin Chuan then said, "What are you waiting for? If you don't have the ability, don't talk nonsense here. Get lost!"
The young man with the parted hair was amused by Lin Chuan. He planned to settle the score later, and since it wasn't the time to cause trouble at the hotel entrance, he sneered, "Good lad, you've got guts. Things change, you've got guts!"
After the young man finished speaking, he left with his men.
Seeing that the group had already left, Qin Rou smiled disdainfully: "Out so early?"
Lin Chuan, somewhat impatient, quickly asked Qin Rou, who was standing beside him, "Sister-in-law, what exactly happened? Who were those people just now?"
Qin Rou said calmly, "Xiao Chuan, when you're in the world, you're not in control of your own destiny. As long as you're in this social environment, you're bound to encounter some enemies. Those people were the ones who used to bully me when I was doing business. In a fit of anger, I called the police and they were imprisoned for more than half a year. That's why they hate me in their hearts."
Lin Chuan nodded, understanding in his heart.
It turns out that person had been imprisoned because of Qin Rou.
No wonder he hated her so much.
However, Lin Chuan didn't care. No matter what conflicts he had with Qin Rou, if she dared to bully his cousin-in-law, he would definitely let her know why the flowers were so red.
Thinking of this, Lin Chuan didn't want to waste his energy on the man with the parted hair, and said softly, "Sister-in-law, let's go upstairs and have dinner. Anyway, with me here, I won't let anyone bully you."
Qin Rou smiled and said, "It's alright, Xiao Chuan. It's all in the past. Anyway, if they go too far, I have ways to deal with them."
Lin Chuan didn't say anything more.
But he knew in his heart that the method Qin Rou mentioned must be that of Uncle Tian.
But Uncle Tian's favors were still favors. He felt that the way to deal with those thugs was to make them feel pain and fear so that they would completely distance themselves from his cousin-in-law and him.
As for Uncle Tian, Lin Chuan felt it was best to avoid using him if possible, since it's hard to repay favors.
As Lin Chuan thought this, he and Qin Rou walked into the private room. They sat down, and a moment later, Shu Qiao pushed open the door and walked in, smiling broadly. "Oh, everyone's here. I'm not late, am I?"
Qin Rou quickly stood up and said warmly, "Sister Qiao, it's not late, it's not late. We just arrived."
Lin Chuan also stood up and looked at Shu Qiao. He then saw that Shu Qiao had changed into a casual outfit: a white short-sleeved shirt paired with tight jeans. Her legs were beautiful, and the tight jeans accentuated their shape, making them even more attractive.
Shu Qiao sat down and said with a smile, "I told you there was no need to be so polite, but you insisted on treating me."
Qin Rou patted Shu Qiao's hand: "We absolutely have to invite her, we absolutely have to invite her."
Shu Qiao looked at Lin Chuan: "Lin Chuan, look how good your cousin-in-law is to you! If it were someone else, would she go to such lengths to treat me to a meal?"
Lin Chuan nodded: "Yes, I'll keep all of that in mind!"
Shu Qiao smiled again and said, "Regarding your work, you still have to wait. Don't rush, take your time."
Lin Chuan nodded: "I know, but please take extra care, Sister Qiao."
Shu Qiao laughed and said, "Look at you, how eloquent you are!"
After saying that, Shu Qiao looked at Qin Rou and said softly, "As for Lin Chuan's position, it's not up to me to decide. To be honest, there are a lot of people applying for that position. Manager Zhang will have to interview many people later. He will definitely have to make a comprehensive comparison and select the best candidate."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan felt a chill run through him.
In that case, my job is probably in a bit of a precarious situation.
But Qin Rou calmly replied, "Actually, anyone can do the job well. In any case, I'll still ask you to put in more effort in the future."
Shu Qiao said firmly, "That's not necessarily true. Your cousin is my cousin, so there's no need to say more."
Qin Rou smiled gently: "Xiao Chuan, hurry up and fill your Aunt Qiao's glass. We must have a good drink with her today!"
Lin Chuan also felt he had to drink with Shu Qiao, so he took the wine bottle and went to pour her some wine. But Shu Qiao suddenly grabbed Lin Chuan's hand and said, "I don't drink, so don't pour me any."
Shu Qiao's hands were soft and delicate. Lin Chuan insisted, "Practice makes perfect. It's rare to be so happy tonight, so drink less."
Qin Rou also advised, "A little bit won't hurt, as long as you don't drink heavily, it won't harm your health."
Shu Qiao, who had never drunk alcohol, insisted, "I really don't drink. I'll just have some soft drinks instead of alcohol."
Seeing this, Lin Chuan realized that Shu Qiao really didn't want to drink, and didn't want to force her, so he said to Qin Rou, "Sister-in-law, let's just leave it to her. Since Sister Qiao doesn't want to drink, let's just let her be."
Qin Rou looked helpless: "Alright then."
Shu Qiao then released Lin Chuan's hand. Hmm, Lin Chuan's hand is so strong. I like it, I like it!
