Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire Chapter 1827 – What Truth Do You Want Me to Say?

Chapter 1827: What Truth Do You Want Me to Say?

Mao Nana could finally relax. “I don’t want what ifs, I want ten thousand.”[1]

“Alright, I’ll give you 10,000 yuan, I can even give you 20,000 yuan.”

Qu Xiujie’s eyes lit up when he saw Mao Nana.

“Sis, Ge Ge, is dinner ready?”

Qu Xiujie stood up and wanted to see if the table in the dining room was ready but was pulled into the kitchen by Mao Nana. “Since you’re back, you should help Sister Manhua and Ge Ge do something.”

“My sister doesn’t need me, and neither does Ge Ge.”

Although he was pulled by Mao Nana, Qu Xiujie was not in a hurry to follow her. Indeed, Zhang Manhua and Pei Ge did not need his help.

“Uncle, hurry up and go out. Dinner will be ready soon.”

“Hurry up and get out. Nana, you should get out too. We don’t need your help here. It’s better if you don’t help us.”

Zhang Manhua hurriedly chased Mao Nana and Qu Xiujie out.

Mao Nana, who was standing in the living room, said softly to Qu Xiujie, “Look, Sister Manhua and Ge Ge treat you really well, so you don’t bear to tell them the truth?”

“What truth do you want me to tell them?”

Qu Xiujie looked at Mao Nana warily.

“Uncle, I know you have something on your mind. I don’t think I need to say it; Sister Manhua and Ge Ge will be able to tell soon. You’re really making them worry.”

Mao Nana could not bear to see him like this. She wanted to hear his sincere words but could not get any of it.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Qu Xiujie grabbed Mao Nana’s hand and looked at her sincerely. “Don’t worry. If something really happens to me, it won’t be now.”

“Good. That’s good. I’ll wait for you to tell me. No matter what time it is.”

Mao Nana did not interrogate Qu Xiujie further and went to the kitchen to help Zhang Manhua and Pei Ge bring the dishes to the table. They only started eating when everyone was present.

During the meal, Pei Ge and Zhang Manhua did not ask anything. After dinner, Qu Xiujie sat on the sofa and watched the television in boredom. “That old man is hospitalized.”

As Qu family was still in danger, Old master Qu’s hospitalization was a top secret and could not be known by outsiders so quickly. However, when Qu Xiujie said it, it was as though all his hatred for Old master Qu had a boundary.

“What did you say? Old master Qu is hospitalized?”

Zhang Manhua, who was standing behind Qu Xiujie, quickly ran to him and asked, “Why is he hospitalized? Isn’t he in good health? I saw him attending so many meetings these few days. Are they all fake?”

Zhang Manhua did not believe it. She had clearly seen Old master Qu’s mental state these past few days. No matter where he went, he always had the aura of a king. However, she did not expect this king to have moments of weakness.

“I suspect it has something to do with that woman.”

Qu Xiujie spoke quietly and steadily. His suspect was not without reason.

When he left Qu family, Old master Qu’s health was not as bad as it was now. However, when he went to Qu family this time, he realized that Old master Qu’s health was worse than he had imagined.

“You mean this woman has already—”

Zhang Manhua could not imagine how ruthless this woman was. How much hatred did she have for her? She even wanted to hurt the people closest to her. How heartless was she?

“This woman is much more powerful than she looks. I’m no match for her.”

Qu Xiujie’s voice was cold as he recalled the things Ji Ziming had told him previously. He could not help but recall that he had once treated this woman as someone important in his life. However, for some reason, he did not allow this thought to develop further.

Something seemed to have happened but Qu Xiujie actually forgot about it.

Indeed, his memories were deteriorating as he got older. He had almost forgotten most of his past.

“Have you told Old master Qu? What did he say?”

Zhang Manhua sat beside Qu Xiujie and continued asking nervously, “Is he still unwilling to believe you? Does he still think that we are wrong and that what that woman said is right?”

Zhang Manhua’s worries were not unfounded.

“Sister, do you really have to save him?”

Qu Xiujie turned to look at Zhang Manhua with a serious expression. “But if we really want to save him, we have to convince him personally.”

“We still need to arrange for someone to stay by his side. If not, how is he going to guard against the Qu family who is advancing step by step?”

Pei Ge walked out of the kitchen with a cup of tea. “Uncle, have some tea. I didn’t see you eat much for lunch.”

Pei Ge specially brewed some digestive tea before continuing, “I know what you mean and I agree.”

“Ge Ge, do you really agree?”

Qu Xiujie clearly remembered that Pei Ge did not want to step into the Qu family anymore and did not want to bother about the Qu family’s matters. The sudden change might have something to do with Zhang Manhua.

“I agree. How could I not agree? Since Mother said that she wanted to save someone, then let’s go save that person. Regardless of whether that person is willing to listen to us, we’ve already prepared our plan. If he’s really unwilling in the end, then I have nothing to say.”

She put down her tea and explained.

“Alright, you’re right. I do need to find someone to stay by his side, but I’m in Qu family…”

“Qu Jingwan is the person I’m looking for.”

Pei Ge blurted out. In fact, ever since Qu Jingwan came to look for Pei Ge the last time, the two had not seen each other.

“Between you and Qu Jingwan?”

Qu Xiujie was a little surprised. The two of them were clearly rivals in love but why did their relationship change so quickly? They could actually help each other like friends.

“I have nothing to do with Qu Jingwan. It’s just that she came to look for me when Qu Group was in trouble last time, so we got to know each other.”

Pei Ge adjusted her skirt and sat down on the sofa. Her tone was relaxed and there was no sign of fatigue on her exquisite face. “That’s why I helped her and she made a deal with me. If not, I really don’t know who I can find in Qu family or who else I can find.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you. Let’s try Qu Jingwan first. I’ll look for her this afternoon.”
