Chapter 151 Taiping Incident
Chapter 151 Taiping Incident
If you change to a thinner suit underneath, the overall effect will look much better.
The two sets of clothes matched unexpectedly when standing together. My sister shouted "Dad is a prince"
Ni Jia knew very well what it meant to attend such a public occasion with Li Yucheng, and she stared at the mirror in a daze for a while.
"what happened?"
Li Yucheng would lean forward slightly when talking to her, which was not the case before. Ni Jia felt guilty for the little thoughts in her heart.
"I might take advantage of you."
"Ok?"
She confessed, "At the dinner party."
Although the words may not sound very pleasant, honest people can gain Li Yucheng's patience.
"Using me for what?"
"Provoke Shen Chuyao."
"Gone?"
"Gone."
Li Yucheng nodded, indicating that he understood.
Unable to figure out what Li Yucheng was thinking, Ni Jia could only kindly remind him: "If you don't want to, then you'd better change your clothes."
"That's it." Li Yucheng handed the card to SALE, indicating that the other party should pay the bill.
SALE left happily, and Ni Jia returned to the dressing room to change clothes. Before closing the curtain, Li Yucheng stretched out his hand to block her.
"I'm going to change clothes."
"Is there anything else?" Li Yucheng asked.
"what?"
"Besides provoking Shen Chuyao, do you have any other thoughts?"
Shen Chuyao is her target, and this is the purpose of attending the Cheng family dinner.
If not, she wouldn't have spent so much time wasting on such a meaningless banquet.
Ni Jia shook his head honestly, and then saw Li Yucheng's expression turned a little ugly.
"it is good."
The other person loosened his hand, and the curtain hung down naturally, leaving a palm-width gap between them.
"You don't have to feel guilty. After all, we have the same goal." Li Yucheng turned around and stopped again.
"Compared to Shen Chuyao, I want to see Cheng Wenbo's reaction more."
Obviously their purposes are similar but not exactly the same. Ni Jia went there to provoke, but in addition to provocation, his more important intention was to make a statement.
Declare their "relationship" and let everyone know who Li Yucheng's woman is.
Because of this episode, Li Yucheng smiled less on the way back. Coincidentally, his housekeeper called him. After answering the call, he became even more silent.
"what happened?"
"I have to go back."
"Peace?"
"Ah."
Ni Jia nodded and said nothing more. Li Yucheng's eyes darkened and he did not invite her any further. He knew that Ni Jia was concerned about the house.
The car stopped at the gate of the yard. The younger sister had been making a fuss all afternoon and had fallen asleep. Ni Jia got out of the car holding the child.
Seeing that Li Yucheng didn't get out of the car, Ni Hao stood outside the car and pulled at the corner of his clothes.
"Are you coming back tonight?"
"Maybe, maybe not."
Having said that, Ni Jia also looked up at him. Li Yucheng touched his sister's face and asked the driver to drive away.
This house is taken care of on a daily basis. The flowers and plants are maintained monthly, the water quality of the fish pond and swimming pool is tested regularly, and even the housekeeper stays here.
Li Yucheng couldn't understand why so many people couldn't even take care of a few fish.
"what happened?"
"When the servants found them, two of them were already lying on their stomachs."
The housekeeper looked nervous. It was a cold January day, but he was sweating a lot out of nowhere.
Everyone knew that Li Yucheng treasured this fish pond very much. Now that the fish died, they all gathered in the garden waiting to be scolded.
Seeing Li Yucheng approaching, they all lowered their heads, worried that they would be blamed.
I was already feeling unhappy, and now Li Yucheng's face was extremely ugly, and his voice was cold, "Bring me the test report."
The servant had prepared it early in the morning and handed it over quickly.
Li Yucheng quickly flipped through a few pages and found that the water quality had only been tested once in the past six months.
“Who is overseeing this?”
Someone raised his hand tremblingly, and Li Yucheng's eyes immediately chased after him like a knife: "Give me an explanation."
"The previous testing master fell ill, so he sent his apprentice here for the past six months. The young master said..."
The servant looked at him cautiously and said, "Just once is enough."
"It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly." The butler admitted his mistake.
"Of course you have a responsibility." Li Yucheng interrupted coldly, and then fixed his eyes on the servant's face: "How long have you been here?"
The servant whispered, "Two years."
“Can’t you form a habit in two years?”
"Sorry, Master. I will pay more attention next time..."
"There won't be a next time," Li Yucheng turned his head and said to the housekeeper, "Pay her this month's salary."
It's really hard to find a job as the Chinese New Year is approaching. The salary here is high and no one lives here on weekdays. If I leave now, not only will I lose my job, but I will also miss out on the year-end bonus.
After hearing this, the maid bowed and apologized repeatedly, begging Li Yucheng to give her a chance.
"Okay." Just when the servant was starting to feel hopeful, Li Yucheng added the second half of the sentence very coldly.
"As long as they come back alive, I can give you another chance."
The servant's eyes turned red, she lowered her head and stopped talking. The housekeeper quickly pulled her out and settled the money.
The two koi were completely dead, and there was no reaction when Li Yucheng touched them with the salvage net.
This made him even angrier, because it showed that the people he hired usually never came to the backyard and stayed idle in the house.
"I'm not paying you to turn on the heating."
"Since so many of you can't even look after a fish pond, why don't you take your salary and replace it with a more professional one?"
No one had the courage to face Li Yucheng's anger. The servants looked at each other, fearing that the boss would fire them all in a rage.
"What are you all doing here?" Li Yucheng shouted, "Catch the fish and change the water!"
The servants dispersed, some went to get buckets, some went to get basins, and some went to get the pump.
The housekeeper found an extra-large spotlight from the warehouse, set up a ladder and hung the light on the tree, thus making the view of the backyard brighter.
A group of people ran in and out, carrying more than ten buckets and basins, and formed a circle around the fish pond.
Li Yucheng was in charge of catching the fish himself, for fear that someone would go too heavy-handed and break another fish.
No one dared to compete with him for the job. In order to keep their jobs, everyone kept their mouths shut and worked very hard.
Once the water in the fish pond was stirred, the fishy smell came in waves like the wind. Li Yucheng frowned and his face turned pale.
He called the housekeeper over and was just about to put the man's head into the fish pond to smell it.
"Go make a phone call to verify who did the water inspection!"
The housekeeper quickly agreed, passed by the living room, and poked the fired employee hard with his finger.
"Tell me the truth, have you done any water inspections?"
"Done."
"When was the last time!"
"Three...three months ago..." The servant didn't dare to raise his head because of being scolded.
The housekeeper's face changed when he heard this. "What about the test report?"
The servant lowered his head and stopped talking. The housekeeper immediately understood everything and shook his head and waved his hand: "Pack up and leave quickly."
