176: Chapter 176 Meeting with the Boss

Liu Yuan suddenly found out the next day that Su Nange had been hospitalized.

She rushed to Qiantang First Hospital.

With Old Dong and Old Huang around, Su Nange's medical conditions couldn't be better. It was almost like staying in a star-rated hotel.

Only, why was it different from what he had imagined? Where were the gorgeous nurses?

In truth, Su Nange was perfectly fine, but if he didn't do this, he'd be done for by the time Liu Yuan's grandfather's birthday arrived.

Utilizing every available incident to make everything seem reasonable—that was Su Nange's goal.

Seeing Su Nange lying in bed, Liu Yuan was worried sick.

"Darling, what on earth happened to you? How did you get into a car crash?"

Su Nange squeezed out a smile for Liu Yuan. "It's nothing, don't worry about it. This is something I have to face. After all, you're a young lady from a wealthy family, and I'm just an ordinary person. It's normal for someone to be unhappy with me."

Liu Yuan leaned over Su Nange. "I'm your wife. Tell me quickly, who was it? I, Liu Yuan, will make them disappear completely."

Su Nange played the manipulative victim role to the end. "I know you're good to me. With those words of yours, I'm satisfied."

"I really can't tell you who it is. I can't let myself affect your relationship with them."

"Su Nange! If you keep this up, I'm going to get angry!"

"Fine, I'll tell you, but you mustn't get agitated. It's your elder brother, Liu Zongren, who wants to deal with me."

"He had his subordinate cut my brake lines. I've already obtained the confession."

"But you know, for someone of your brother's status, the higher-ups won't do anything to him. As long as I'm not dead, it'll be treated as if nothing happened."

Liu Yuan clenched her fists. "Liu Zongren! How dare you do this to my man!"

"Darling, don't worry. I'm going to find him right now!"

Su Nange quickly pulled Liu Yuan back. "Don't go! It'll ruin your grandfather's birthday celebration!"

Liu Yuan leaned over Su Nange again. "Darling, you... you're so good! Where do you feel unwell? I'll take care of you!"

How could Su Nange feel unwell? However, once Liu Yuan said that, it seemed there really was a certain place that felt a bit... uncomfortable.

Liu Yuan's face reddened. "You devil! Look what time it is!"

But the young lady still lowered her proud posture.

After all, it wasn't unreasonable for the sister to pay for the brother's mistakes, right?

In the afternoon, another enchanting figure appeared.

Su Nange complained, "See? What am I supposed to say to you!"

"Pretending to be your boyfriend—now look what's happened."

The woman's face was cold, her bright eyes tightening slightly.

"Liu Zongren really went too far this time!"

Su Nange continued his act. "Forget it. After all, he's pursued you for so many years. It's normal for him to feel psychologically unbalanced."

Zhou Wanqing thought Su Nange was forced to bow his head because he feared the Liu Family's power.

She felt very guilty.

She took the initiative to sit beside Su Nange and held his hand. "I'm sorry. It was my lack of foresight that caused you to—"

Su Nange suddenly said seriously, "Why are you apologizing? Seriously, what does this have to do with you? This is a struggle between men! Don't get involved!"

Being scolded by Su Nange, Zhou Wanqing wasn't angry at all; instead, her cheeks flushed red.

You little brat, why are you so overbearing?

But then Su Nange changed his tone. "However, if you're really guilty, it's not impossible to compensate me a little, hehe."

Zhou Wanqing, who had just been full of tenderness, was left speechless.

Still, she asked, "What compensation do you want?"

Su Nange turned his face away and pointed to his cheek.

Zhou Wanqing shook her head helplessly, leaned down, and lightly "stamped" a kiss on Su Nange's face.

But she didn't expect Su Nange to suddenly pull her into his arms.

Her lips were blocked.

Su Nange only let her go once he was satisfied.

Zhou Wanqing tidied her appearance and grumbled, "You rascal, I think you did this on purpose! You're perfectly fine!"

"Yeah, I'm as strong as an ox! Why don't you come up and try for yourself?"

Zhou Wanqing gave him a flick on the head.

This damn guy—even through the covers, Zhou Wanqing could clearly see a small mound.

But women are strange creatures. Once she has you in her heart, the more you act like this, the more of a sense of achievement she feels.

Especially the current Zhou Wanqing, she even thought: Hehe, Liu Yuan, whatever you can do, I can do too.

This guy has absolutely no resistance against me.

Su Nange finally let this big sister, Zhou Wanqing, off the hook.

He did this deliberately to let the woman know.

For now, it was best not to go too far in front of Liu Zongren.

Don't drag me along to join the fun for Liu Yuan's grandfather's birthday.

If I end up fighting Liu Zongren for your sake then, won't it make things awkward for the old man?

Meanwhile, the matter regarding Su Nange was also reported to Zhou Bingzheng.

Of course, Director He Bangguo was still fuming. This Young Master Liu had shown such disrespect to him, a dignified provincial-level official.

Regardless of the relationship between the Liu and Zhou families, he was going to file a complaint.

Zhou Bingzheng felt speechless as he listened to the exaggerated report from the other end.

Fortunately, the final impact wasn't significant.

Neither of the two young men was easy to deal with.

He also knew Su Nange was doing it on purpose, specifically to show off his methods.

Zhou Wanqing must have told the kid about his decision.

This Great Agent Su was expressing his dissatisfaction here.

Otherwise, why would the usually composed man choose such a direct way of charging at someone's doorstep to resolve a conflict?

Zhou Bingzheng thought it over; he still had to downplay the matter. They were both mature men, so why were they getting so worked up over a woman?

It seems my daughter is quite charming, hehe.

However, this matter didn't start because of Su Nange. It was time to give the Liu Family a warning.

"Comrade Bangguo, let me handle this matter personally."

"Let's not make this kind of thing known to everyone."

Director He Bangguo nodded. He knew Zhou Bingzheng was in a difficult position. On one side was his good brother's son, and on the other was his wife's nephew.

If they fought, it would bring shame to the Secretary.

Zhou Bingzheng called Liu Lu. "Old comrade-in-arms, I'll come to see the Old Master tonight. When the Old Master's birthday comes, I'll just have Wanqing represent me."

"Hehe, Secretary Zhou is too considerate. To bother you to come in person—my Old Master will surely be happy."

The two agreed on a time.

For all these years, Liu Lu had always maintained a well-controlled distance from Zhou Bingzheng.

No matter how good their relationship was in private, in public, respect was always the first priority.

Liu Lu also called Liu Zongren over and gave him a harsh scolding.

However, his attitude was: "Either you land a fatal blow, or you don't use such underhanded tactics at all!"

Liu Zongren was also very frustrated. "I didn't expect that brat to have such strength and methods!"

Liu Lu continued to shout his questions. "Would the person my daughter took a fancy to be an ordinary person? Where's your brain? Do you think you're the only one investigating him?"

"Don't forget, he's the one who saved your grandfather!"

Liu Zongren: "But what's outrageous about this guy is that he clearly provoked Yuan, and now he's after Wanqing too!"

"Dad, can I endure this?"

Liu Lu waved his hand. "Can't endure it? Then do the job cleanly! Fine, now your Uncle Zhou is coming to visit in person! And your old man has to clean up your mess!"

Liu Zongren sighed. "I'm sorry, Father. It was my lack of foresight."

"Enough, go back and think about it. I'll see what your Uncle Zhou's attitude is first. I'll bring up the relationships that need to be clarified."

"Thank you, Father!"
