Chapter 647: Chapter 677: Jiao Jiao, Did They Bully You?
A few minutes later, Shen Yi opened the door to their apartment. Li Xiaomei, who had been sitting restlessly, shot up from the sofa almost instantly.
She craned her neck to look behind him and asked, a little confused, "Shen Yi, did you see your dad? He should have been right outside the door having a smoke."
Shen Yi gave her a disgusted look. "If you’re talking about Shen Zhengfeng, he went downstairs. If you hurry, you might be able to catch him."
The color drained from Li Xiaomei’s face. She rushed to the door, but as she was changing her shoes, she noticed Shen Zhengfeng’s leather shoes were still there!
Her heart skipped a beat.
But she didn’t have time to dwell on it. Picking up Shen Zhengfeng’s shoes, she was about to leave when Shen Yi suddenly noticed the things on the table and said, "Wait a minute."
Li Xiaomei froze on the spot.
To be honest, she was a little afraid of Shen Yi.
She had heard that when Shen Yi was doing business in the South, he’d even hit a woman!
Shen Yi brought the things from the table over to Li Xiaomei and said, "Take these."
Li Xiaomei gave a forced smile. "But Xiao Jiao is pregnant. We bought these for her."
"We don’t need them. If you don’t take them, I’ll throw them out the window and onto your car."
"..."
This wasn’t just a threat. No, Shen Yi was the kind of brazen man who always followed through.
Li Xiaomei didn’t dare say another word. Grabbing the gifts and Shen Zhengfeng’s shoes, she scurried away in disgrace.
As soon as the door closed, Shen Yi rushed over to Qin Jiao, looking extremely worried. "Jiao Jiao, did they bully you?"
Qin Jiao gave a lazy smile. "They can’t bully me. They’re no match for me in an argument, and if they had tried to get physical, I would’ve just hidden in my space."
Seeing her languid appearance, Shen Yi felt a stir in his heart. He leaned in and gave her a kiss. "As long as you’re okay. You scared me to death."
"They were very humble when they arrived, so they must have wanted to ask you for something. You ran into Shen Zhengfeng outside just now? What did he want from you?"
At the mention of what Shen Zhengfeng had said, Shen Yi sneered. "He came to play the sympathy card. Even said that if he hadn’t given me the clothing factory back then, I wouldn’t be as successful as I am today."
Qin Jiao was speechless. "Wasn’t that just him repaying the money he owed you and your mother? And it wasn’t nearly enough, at that. How can he be like that?"
"Yeah, it’s outrageous, right? So I shot back at him, and he got so angry he forgot to even change his shoes before storming off."
"So, what did he really come for this time?"
Shen Yi had confirmed that Qin Jiao hadn’t been bullied, but he still picked up the mop, ready to clean all the floors in the apartment.
He took off his jacket and got to work.
As he worked, he said, "He didn’t say, but I’m ninety percent sure it’s nothing good. Jiao Jiao, why don’t we move?"
They already owned a good number of properties, and with the addition of a courtyard house that was certain to appreciate in value, plus three companies, it could be said that their baby would be born at a finish line that many people couldn’t reach in a lifetime of hard work.
For Shen Yi, buying a house now was quite easy.
But Qin Jiao shook her head. "Let’s talk about buying a house later. Buying a place now would mean renovations, and that’s not suitable while I’m pregnant."
Shen Yi hugged her and gave her another kiss. "No need for renovations. Back when I went to the South on a business trip, I was always worried about leaving you home alone. You were always running over to your mom’s complex next door, right? Well, one time, I happened to see a unit in that building for sale, so I bought it. It’s already been renovated to your taste, and I’ve just been letting it air out."
Qin Jiao froze, her focus landing on something else entirely. "You had that much money stashed away?!"
That was a whole apartment!
