Chapter 2169 - 2172: The Little Scheme Seen Through by the Beauty

Upon hearing Wenren Meiqiao's words, Shen Qiang was surprised and said, "Don't you think Jinli Qianning's personality is problematic? That kind of aloof and unapproachable attitude, don't you dislike her?"

The charming Wenren Meiqiao giggled and said, "Shen Qiang, you, we have spoiled you. That Jinli Qianning is a mermaid, isn't she beautiful? Isn't she prettier than the campus beauty Qin Yurou? Is her family background bad? Oh, why should someone who is beautiful, sings sweetly, has a good family background, and excels in martial arts, smile and welcome people who are inferior to her in every aspect and have ulterior motives?"

Looking at her full of doubt and cold smile, Shen Qiang said, "Then what do you mean?"

Wenren Meiqiao smiled, and at that moment, Ye Guyun, who couldn't wait any longer, directly grabbed the meat that Shen Qiang was cooking and said, "Of course, you should. Miss Qian Ning is so beautiful, her songs are nice, and I really like her anyway."

The moment he heard this.

Wenren Meiqiao was stunned, then suddenly turned her head, smiled at Shen Qiang and said, "My opinion? Of course not."

This sudden change made Shen Qiang astonished and said, "Why?"

Wenren Meiqiao giggled and said, "Because she's prettier than me, so I feel threatened, and I won't let you interact with her. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Shen Qiang smiled and continued cooking the meat, clearing his throat and said, "Appearance isn't important; I prefer your kind heart."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao cutely took a bite of the cooked meat and said, "Speaking of heart, it's even worse. That Qian Ning is arrogant, and if she joins Heshenghe, wouldn't that be a disaster? So if you're asking my attitude, definitely no, absolutely no, no discussion."

For a moment, Shen Qiang's smile was slightly awkward.

At that moment, Ye Guyun, full of oil, said, "What exactly are you two up to? Initially, Shen Qiang didn't want Qian Ning, and Meiqiao wanted her. How, in the blink of an eye, have you two switched places?"

Shen Qiang felt awkward and frowned, "Just eat your meat, how come you're involved in everything?"

Ye Guyun pursed his lips helplessly.

Meanwhile, Wenren Meiqiao charmingly smiled and looked at Shen Qiang, "Ye Guyun, do you know how long it's been since Shen Qiang cooked?"

"It's been a long time," Ye Guyun replied, "Also, he hasn't made anything delicious for us."

Wenren Meiqiao smiled and said, "Do you know why he cooked today?"

Ye Guyun was taken aback, looking puzzled.

At this time, Wenren Meiqiao smiled charmingly at Shen Qiang and said, "Ye Guyun, let me tell you, your master is trying to use this cooked meat as a ploy to please me, hehe, basically being kind for no reason."

Ye Guyun was stunned and looked at Shen Qiang with surprise.

Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Meiqiao, you overthought it."

Wenren Meiqiao laughed giggly, flirtatiously winked at Shen Qiang, then suddenly her face turned serious and said, "When a woman acts childish in front of a man, it's because she loves him. But if she doesn't love him, I assure you, she'll be more mature than your mother."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Watch your image; you're talking like a shrew."

Wenren Meiqiao laughed angrily and said, "I was curious why you suddenly wanted to cook for me. I thought your flirtatious self had a moment of conscience and wanted to turn over a new leaf. Looks like you came to trick me, talking about Gong Ziyi again and saying it's tough."

"And then showing off that beautiful and enviable Qian Ning, acting like you couldn't care less about her, oh, is that so? Waiting for me to beg you to recruit her? Sitting here telling you facts, reasoning, and then you say, given my heartfelt persuasion, you'll reluctantly agree?"

Shen Qiang laughed, "You overthought it. I definitely didn't mean that. I just felt that you've been working too hard recently and lost weight, so I wanted to make something good for you."

"Hehehe," the charming Wenren Meiqiao laughed flirtatiously, "I've been bitterly dieting these past few months and finally lost a pound or two. So, do you want to help me gain it back?"

Shen Qiang laughed awkwardly, "No such intention."

Just then, as Shen Qiang finished speaking, the charming Wenren Meiqiao stopped laughing, her face turned serious, and she slammed the table, saying sternly, "Confess for leniency, resist and suffer! Tell me, what you're plotting with such premeditation?"

Seeing Shen Qiang's awkward smile, Wenren Meiqiao raised her eyebrows and said, "I'll give you one last chance, tell me your purpose directly, or else I'll..."

While thinking, Wenren Meiqiao pointed her finger, but couldn't finish her sentence.

Because if she said it harshly, she feared Shen Qiang would be upset, but if she said it lightly, she worried he wouldn't be honest.

Thus, for a moment, she put herself in a difficult position.

Seeing this, Shen Qiang chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, don't say it, I've confessed, I've laid it all out, okay?"

"Then explain!" Wenren Meiqiao reminded, "If you dare lie to me, I won't forgive you."

Shen Qiang smiled, hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, you guessed one-third right. Regarding the little trap I set, hoping you'd request me to pursue Jinli Qianning, I admit, it is indeed true, it's my fault for trying to play tricks on you, and I apologize."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao's eyes became coquettish with pride, "Hmph, at least you're sensible. I forgive you, but don't do it again."

Shen Qiang smiled and then said seriously, "And the reason I'm doing this is because my time is really tight. Gong Ziyi won't give me much time because he knows that if we at Heshenghe have another strong newcomer, then he won't have a chance to beat me."

"So right now, I have to quickly get Jinli Qianning on board, but I don't understand her, and she's very cold on the surface, always expressionless, making it hard to guess what she's thinking. So my plan was that while you ask me to pursue her, I would naturally suggest you help investigate her personal interests and hobbies, allowing me to pursue her accordingly."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao laughed, "Wow, little Shen Qiang, you're really tricking even me."

"Tricking you is just one aspect. If I didn't want to personally cook for you, I have other methods that are more effective." Seriously looking at Wenren Meiqiao, Shen Qiang said, "Moreover, please believe that in my eyes, your figure is flawless, so I urge you not to continue dieting."

Looking at Shen Qiang's serious expression, Wenren Meiqiao's beautiful eyes suddenly showed a coy smile and said, "Alright, since you said so, if I really become a two-hundred-pound fatty, don't regret it."

"While you're with me, you can happily become a two-hundred-pound fatty, and my love for you won't diminish in the slightest."

Upon hearing this, the coquettish-eyed Wenren Meiqiao saw Ye Guyun staring at her, immediately retracted her flirtatious smile, then pretended to be annoyed at Shen Qiang and said, "Oh please, who believes your sweet talk? But given your honest attitude, I'll help with this favor!"
