Chapter 210

Yu Cheng's face was full of enthusiasm as he looked at Zhou Jiaojiao showing weakness and nodded in agreement. "Sure, why not? There’s no problem with that.

I often go to Uncle Qi’s house. Just follow me."

Zhou Jiaojiao pulled her man and followed Yu Cheng.

Arriving at the Qi family’s door again, Zhou Jiaojiao ignored Lin Qiuyu standing nearby and stared at Yu Cheng, almost giving him a flirtatious look.

Her voice was soft. "Big Brother Yu, can you help us call him out? This relative of mine... I don’t want to cause him any trouble."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

Lin Qiuyu watched her and found it very familiar.

Her sister usually acted just like this!

Although she knew Brother Yu wouldn’t be interested in this woman, and the woman was married,

she still felt a bit uncomfortable.

Yu Cheng was more than happy to help; his plan was to create a rift between the He family and He Youde.

He always felt that Wang Qinghe was scheming something, but if Wang Qinghe benefited, so would he—it was all good for him.

"Sure, I’ll go call him out. You wait over there."

With that, Yu Cheng took Lin Qiuyu to the He family.

At this moment, Qi Yingying was in the living room, preparing vegetables for cooking.

Seeing Yu Cheng come over, she was somewhat puzzled.

"Yu Cheng? Why are you here? Did your family send you?"

Qi Yingying was confused because Yu Cheng wasn’t exactly close to their family.

Moreover, she had no mood to entertain Yu Cheng, who was only half-acquainted, especially since Old He was upstairs talking to his good younger brother.

Once they finished talking, when He Tian returned in the evening, Old He would surely treat He Tian even better.

He Tian was here precisely to get Old He to find him connections for smoother sailing ahead.

But these connections were their family’s resources.

What would they do next time?

She and Old He weren’t childless.

Thinking about it, Qi Yingying felt distressed and didn’t bother maintaining a smile when looking at Yu Cheng.

Yu Cheng was quite perceptive.

Seeing her demeanor, he immediately understood that Aunt Qi must be in a bad mood recently, thanks to He Youde causing trouble.

Yu Cheng wasn’t interested in Aunt Qi’s mood; he just asked about the matter at hand. "Aunt Qi, is Uncle Youde around?

I’m here to see him. Someone outside was looking for him and wanted me to pass on a message and bring him over."

"Who was looking for him?" Qi Yingying immediately became interested. She didn’t know who had visited He Youde last time.

All she knew was that He Youde came back looking grim.

According to He Ming, He Youde even got angry at He Tian.

"Sorry, I don’t know, Aunt Qi. Is Uncle Youde not here?" Yu Cheng countered.

"He’s here. I’ll go call him." Qi Yingying couldn’t wait for He Youde to leave this house!

This younger brother-in-law was the person she hated the most!

Soon, He Youde was called down.

"Uncle Youde, let me show you the way," Yu Cheng greeted him and walked with him.

Qi Yingying noticed Lin Qiuyu hadn’t left yet and grabbed her hand. "Qiuyu, stay and sit for a while.

Auntie hasn’t seen you come to play with Wei Wei for a long time."

Lin Qiuyu smiled at her and sat down as suggested.

"Auntie, Wei Wei hasn’t been going out much lately. I know she’s in a bad mood, so I haven’t come to see her.

But once Wei Wei feels better, she can come find me anytime."

Lin Qiuyu’s obedient smile made Qi Yingying feel better.

Then she asked what she really wanted to know: "Xiao Yu, you came with Yu Cheng. Auntie wants to ask, who was looking for Uncle Youde?

What kind of person was it?"

Qi Yingying was eager to know the truth and asked rather urgently.

Lin Qiuyu was secretly pleased, thinking she didn’t need to act subtly anymore since Auntie was asking directly.

"It was those relatives who came to claim kinship a few days ago. Didn’t Uncle Youde have two relatives visit him a few days ago? It was them.

Today, Brother Yu brought me to meet his family, and we happened to run into them at the gate of the compound."

They asked Brother Yu to lead the way, so we came here.

Aunt Qi, are they your relatives? I heard earlier that they asked Uncle Youde to help them with some job, but I'm not sure what it was."

Lin Qiuyu said this as Yu Cheng had taught her, speaking to Qi Yingying.

Qi Yingying immediately became annoyed upon hearing this: "What job?"

"Huh? I'm not sure either. Maybe I misunderstood. But, I think they didn't treat Uncle Youde very well last time.

It's really kind of Uncle Youde to still meet with them."

Lin Qiuyu felt she had said enough and decided not to continue.

She got up to leave: "Aunt Qi, I can't talk anymore. Yu Ge and I still need to visit their house."

Qi Yingying was deep in thought and didn't bother to see Lin Qiuyu off.

She was curious about who these people were.

Two strangers suddenly appeared, demanding jobs and treating He Youde poorly.

This sounded unbelievable no matter how she thought about it.

Could someone like He Youde be blackmailed?

Wasn't that ridiculous?

And what could he possibly have that others could use against him?

No! She had to go and see for herself.

Qi Yingying forgot about the vegetables at home and rushed out.

She first saw Lin Qiuyu's figure and followed her out. Soon, she encountered He Youde and the others. They didn't notice her, seemingly discussing something.

He Youde was called out and felt extremely frustrated.

What was wrong with these two?

Couldn't they wait a bit longer?

"Uncle He, we meet again. Don't misunderstand, we don't mean anything by it; we just want you to handle our matter quickly."

Zhou Jiaojiao noticed He Youde's bad mood but didn't care.

All she wanted was a job.

In front of so many people, He Youde couldn't do anything.

He didn't even know where she was staying, and she and Wang Qingqi always took detours through crowded places when returning.

She was worried about being targeted by He Youde.

Plus, she was lucky, and others couldn't follow her.

A job? He Youde had never been more speechless.

He had already promised to help with the job. Couldn't they just wait?

"Don't call me out for such trivial matters. This is affecting my important business. I won't break my word about the job.

But if you keep interfering with my affairs, there's nothing more to discuss."

He Youde's attitude was cold, unlike his previous meeting's warmth.

Looking at Zhou Jiaojiao and Wang Qingqi, he knew that being too nice to them would only backfire.

However, this time, He Youde was mistaken.

Zhou Jiaojiao never intended to have much interaction with him from the start. She planned to use him as a stepping stone!

So, she didn't care whether he was angry or not.
