After Being an Improper Control Group as an Abandoned Wealthy Wife, She Effortlessly Came Out on Top

Someone’s Quarreling?

“How did we lose?” Qi Yan began to mutter to herself. She still could not accept this fact.

For a small mission, her entire body was aching and she had broken her nails. What’s worse was that she actually ranked last.

Qi Zhen sat on the sofa at the side with his eyes closed. He was clearly too tired to speak.

Hearing Qi Yan’s complaints, he slowly opened his eyes and said expressionlessly, “The competition has already passed. What’s the point of obsessing over it now?”

“I just feel irritated. It’s fine if I lost to Lu Jinsen’s group, but why did I lose to Liao Jiake?”

Although Lu Jinsen’s team did not pay much attention to the mission, with Meng Chuyuan’s intelligence, Qi Yan felt that it was not embarrassing to lose to them.

Qi Yan was really upset that she had lost to Liao Jiake’s team. “There are two of us… And that Meng something, she even went to help others. Isn’t this breaking the rules of the game?”

Qi Zhen couldn’t stand Qi Yan’s complaints. He suddenly sat up straight and said without changing his expression, “But she also helped us.”

Qi Yan sneered. “Qi Zhen, whose side are you on?”

He replied bluntly, “You’re really being unreasonable.”

“I’m unreasonable?” Qi Yan did not expect him to speak up for Meng Chuyuan. She immediately felt an indescribable frustration in her heart. “That’s because you’re useless. You can’t even fix a hoe. In that case, alright. If you still have to do this kind of physical work tomorrow, do it yourself. Don’t expect me to help you.”

Qi Zhen, who was originally tired and sleepy, saw her desperate look and the anger in his heart was ignited. “It’s just a broken nail. Is there a need to do this? Ask yourself honestly, what have you been doing these two days?”

In the past two days, Qi Zhen had done everything he could to film the Variety show. He thought that he had treated her well enough, but he did not expect her princess syndrome to act up again.

Qi Zhen snorted coldly and said, “You were also the one who said that you wanted to participate in the variety show with me, right?”

“…”

Meng Chuyuan really did not expect that she would have to walk such a long way back after eating that dinner.

After walking for a while, she suddenly pointed at the house in front of her and asked Lu Jinsen, “That should be where Qi Zhen and the others live, right?”

When Lu Jinsen heard that, he nodded casually.

“Come, let’s go in and get some water.”

“…”

Before Lu Jinsen could react, Meng Chuyuan had already walked towards the house.

Meng Chuyuan saw that the lights were still on in the room and thought that they should be in, so she walked over firmly.

When Meng Chuyuan walked into their courtyard, she vaguely heard someone talking. However, the wind at night was whistling loudly, and she could not hear clearly. She even felt that it was an illusion.

“Did you hear anything? Is someone quarreling?” she asked Lu Jinsen in confusion.

Lu Jinsen’s hands were still in his pockets. He was wearing thin clothes and felt that the wind was a little cool. It was so cold that he wanted to tremble.

When Meng Chuyuan suddenly asked him, Lu Jinsen looked at her in confusion. “What quarrel?”

“It’s nothing.” The cold wind blew against her face. Meng Chuyuan took it as an illusion.

Before Meng Chuyuan entered, she shouted, “Hello, is anyone there?”

Unfortunately, what she heard was not a response, but—

“Please, know your place before you talk to me…”

At this moment, Meng Chuyuan stuck her head through the door and said without any fear, “Hi?”

Qi Zhen and Qi Yan were suddenly shocked. They looked at the door almost at the same time and realized that Meng Chuyuan had appeared with Lu Jinsen.

“Why are you here?” A trace of doubt flashed across Qi Zhen’s deep eyes. She did not know when Meng Chuyuan appeared and how much she had heard from the conversation just now.

Meng Chuyuan saw some panic on their faces, but she acted very naturally, as if she knew nothing. She asked briskly, “What were you talking about just now? I didn’t disturb you, did I?”

Seeing her like this, Qi Zhen felt that she might not have heard them just now, so he smiled. “It’s nothing. We’re reviewing the script.”

“You read the script right after the live-stream. You’re very diligent.” Meng Chuyuan turned around and looked at Lu Jinsen. “No wonder you’re not popular. You’re not as diligent as Qi Zhen.”

Lu Jinsen: “…”

Qi Zhen smiled embarrassedly when he was suddenly praised. “Not at all…”

Seeing that they were chatting so happily, Qi Yan’s face darkened again. She stood up and said casually, “I just finished applying a facial mask. I’m going to wash my face. You guys chat.”

After Qi Yan left the living room, Qi Zhen asked Meng Chuyuan and the rest, “Why are you here?”

Meng Chuyuan raised her eyebrows slightly. There was a hint of playfulness in her eyes. “I was passing by and was a little thirsty. I wanted to get a glass of water. You don’t mind, do you?”

“Why would I mind? It’s cold outside. Come in and sit down.”

After Qi Zhen invited them in, he poured them a glass of water.

Meng Chuyuan took the water from Qi Zhen and said, “Thank you.”

“I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for lending us your hoe this afternoon.”

“It’s not worth mentioning. Why are you thanking me?”

Meng Chuyuan really left after drinking the water. She had no intention of staying to chat with Qi Zhen. “Thank you for the water. It’s too late and the road at night is not easy to navigate. We’re going back. Goodbye.”

When Lu Qingye came out of the morning meeting, he saw his assistant leaning against the wall and laughing. His deep eyes were filled with confusion.

“What are you looking at?” He suddenly walked over and glanced at his assistant, who was smiling happily.

The assistant looked up and saw his boss’s cold expression. He subconsciously hid his phone behind his back and greeted respectfully, “CEO Lu.”

Although he had hidden his phone, the sound playing from his phone could still be heard.

Lu Qingye seemed to hear a familiar voice and could not help but frown.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the assistant immediately apologized. “CEO Lu, I’m sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have slacked off during work hours.”

“It’s good that you know. There won’t be a next time.”

“Alright, CEO Lu.”

Seeing that he was not angry, the assistant’s nervousness dissipated. He even dared to take out his phone from behind his back. Looking at the screen that was still playing, he even started to say arrogantly, “But Madam’s IQ is really as good as mine. And Second Young Master Lu, honestly, these two clowns together are simply the source of happiness for our society…”

There was no expression on Lu Qingye’s face, and his eyes revealed an unfathomable expression.

He handed the document in his hand to his assistant coldly and said with some seriousness, “If you say one more thing, I’ll deduct your year-end bonus.”

The assistant: “…”

Lu Qingye returned to his office and looked at the pile of documents waiting to be reviewed on his desk. His eyes gradually dimmed and his eyebrows twitched.
