After the father-in-law and mother-in-law stepped aside, Han Lie quietly asked, "How did I do?"
Pan Ge nodded reservedly, "Not bad..." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚫𝙣𝙚𝙩
Before she could continue, the asshole quickly added, "Then take note of my bank account number."
Pan Ge mentally flipped a table. Damn!
Her usually upright posture suddenly collapsed; she lay back into the couch, crossed her arms, and got angry.
Brother Lie immediately looked down at her feet.
Her toes were clenched tightly, not letting go for a long time.
Oh, so that’s how it is...
Pan Ge, oblivious to what the asshole was pondering, grumbled back, "Then send it over. I’ll transfer the money when I’m free—I have to call my personal customer service assistant, otherwise I can’t make the transfer, so I need to do it behind their backs."
Wow, are these the troubles of the rich? Loved it, loved it!
Having received a specific promise, Han Lie didn’t argue with her about the money anymore.
She obviously wasn’t interested. Talking about money and careers with a rich girl is purely idiotic. What’s the point even if you talk up a storm? Their so-called appreciation of ability is nothing more than admiration for power, not a genuine curiosity about your capabilities. So, what do you talk about? Just sweet-talk her!
"I wasn’t lying just now. You really look too beautiful in the JK school uniform, pure and sexy, something I’ve never seen before... Hm, if I had to use one word to describe my feeling, it would be ’stunning’!"
Pan Ge’s expression didn’t change much.
But, her toes not only relaxed, they even began to dance.
Alright, she’s pleased!
"Stop sweet-talking me!"
She haughtily chastised him, standing her ground firmly.
"Today you have only one task—to win over my parents, so they’ll worry about me less, without being suspicious all the time. It’s so annoying!"
Han Lie, unaware of the recent developments, curiously asked, "What are they suspecting you of?"
Pan Ge glanced toward the living room door like a thief, shifted her butt a little, and quietly replied, "After what you did to me last time... Xi Luting found out..."
Han Lie raised an eyebrow, "No way? She’s so adorably clueless..."
Pan Ge, finding the situation somewhat amusing and frustrating, said, "She may not be shrewd about other things, but that day she really rubbed my IQ in the dirt... No matter what I argued, I couldn’t get past her!"
Han Lie finally understood why Xi Luting had exploded suddenly. It turned out to be this...
Man, it’s always the dog-man’s fault.
"What happened afterward?"
Pan Ge sighed, "Then somehow my parents heard about it... I guess they heard, I’m not sure, but it’s very likely."
Han Lie shook his head, "I haven’t been in contact with Uncle Pan."
"I know it wasn’t you."
Pan Ge gave the asshole a sidelong glance, scoffing, "I scrolled through his phone and only found a call log with Principal Zhang at 10:48 p.m. that night. What do you think I would have done if I had found your messages?"
Han Lie shivered all over.
Damn, you little thing, you sure are cunning!
Luckily, your Brother Lie is broad-minded and behaves legitimately...
Since Brother Lie didn’t have to take the blame, he naturally started to relish another’s misfortune. "Then you’re really unlucky... Didn’t get a beating, did you?"
Pan Ge snorted dismissively, "I’ve grown up without ever knowing what a beating feels like!"
Han Lie’s eyes lit up, "Need help?"
Pan Ge was momentarily stumped by the question, and by the time she realized what he meant, she got even more irritated.
"Do you still want to borrow money?"
Han Lie’s expression was innocent. "I was just asking for an opinion... I’m sorry, my bad."
Seeing that she was still standing on ceremony, he promptly came up with a bad idea. "Next time Xi Luting starts flaunting again, call me over to help you smack her!"
"HA! I like that idea!"
Pan Ge was tempted, her face lighting up with joy as she blissfully imagined the scene.
"When the time comes, you hold her down for me, and I’ll personally spank her... until her butt swells!"
She was happy for a while before she suddenly became vigilant again.
"But you better not get handsy. Keep a good distance from her. Don’t take advantage and certainly don’t let her take advantage of you, got it?"
"Relax, my reputation is solid!"
Han Lie thumped his chest confidently, looking entirely reliable.
Pan Ge believed him, and thus was happy once more.
Brother Lie was also very happy, trying so hard not to laugh that he broke out in a sweat...
He kept egging Pan Ge on to get back at Xi Luting, mainly because he genuinely couldn’t get Xi Luting to go out with him.
The cucumber girl was determined not to contact the dog-man, unwavering and unbreakable.
But look, isn’t it broken now?
The master strategist says: This is called deceiving the heavens to cross the sea and secretly crossing through Chen Cang!
As for the complex situation after the trio’s outing... we’ll find a way then!
One problem at a time, one disobedient girl after another to handle. This round, the advantage is still mine!
