Chapter 397: Chapter 397: Boss, Hurry and Catch the Cheater!
The Changrong Group is famous throughout Beijing.
Even the house owned by Jin’s mother was developed by Changrong Real Estate!
Jin’s mother’s expression twisted slightly for a moment.
“…What are you saying? My eldest daughter’s blind date isn’t some big-shot CEO. He’s just an ordinary mechanic. I like honest, hardworking young men like him.”
“I’m not joking! Mr. Jin and President Shen are getting married!”
Xu Xiaoru took out her phone and showed Jin’s mother a photo of Jin Qingzhou and Shen Boyi dining together.
Under the restaurant’s warm light, the orange glow fell upon them. Shen Boyi stood up to drape his suit jacket over Jin Qingzhou.
The photo was coincidentally captured by Shen Boyi’s secretary and sent to him.
Shen Boyi kept the photo and didn’t delete it. When Xu Xiaoru asked him for a picture, he sent her this one!
Jin’s mother instantly recognized it—the clothes Jin Qingzhou had worn just a few days ago!
“Auntie, you’re truly blessed. President Shen treats Mr. Jin extraordinarily well. With President Shen’s wealth, Mr. Jin wouldn’t have to worry about anything for the rest of his life.”
Jin’s mother scrutinized the photo repeatedly.
Eyes don’t lie!
Shen Boyi’s gaze was so tender it seemed like water would drip from it. The lighting rendered him gentle and elegant, exuding an indescribable air of nobility and restraint.
The last time Jin’s mother saw Shen Boyi was on the news!
She knew full well just how exceptional this man was.
It had taken so much effort years ago to separate Jin Qingzhou from him. Now, how had they gotten back together?
That damn foolish girl must have been secretly contacting him all along!
“Absolutely not! My daughter isn’t good enough for him! I won’t agree to this!”
“Why? President Shen is such a good man. Women lining up to marry him could stretch from your doorstep all the way to France.”
Jin’s mother would never allow Jin Qingzhou to marry a man this outstanding!
“My daughter is riddled with flaws. Her taste is bad, her health is poor, and she can’t have children! All because she’s been fooling around with other men constantly—her body is filthy and she’s unworthy of marrying someone like President Shen!”
Qingwu said coldly, “Talking about your daughter like that—isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”
“What’s inappropriate about it? I’m her mother! I know her best. She’s just a debauched woman—rotten to the core, unable to bear children. How could such a woman presume to marry into the Shen Family?”
Qingwu interjected again.
“President Shen said he doesn’t care. Children don’t matter, either.”
In an instant, it was like some emotional valve inside Jin’s mother had been ignited!
She suddenly clutched her head and screamed!
“No! Absolutely not! All of you are terrible people! Only I have my daughter’s best interests at heart!”
She frantically tried to call Jin Qingzhou to confirm the situation, but after more than ten unanswered calls, she completely broke down!
“Ungrateful brat! I’ve worked so hard to raise her, not for her to go off seducing men!”
Seeing her emotional eruption, Qingwu calmly stamped the diagnosis report with a seal borrowed from Chen Jianhong.
She usually had to get him to sign these forms, a tedious process. After discussing it with Chen Jianhong, Qingwu simply took the stamp herself.
Although Chen Jianhong enjoyed coming to sign the forms—likely because he found them entertaining—Qingwu found him irritating.
“Alright, you can call the psychiatric hospital staff now. Symptoms include extreme overreaction, verbal oppression, lying, strong control tendencies, playing the victim, complete lack of boundaries, and inability to accept that her daughter might fare better than herself. All classic signs.”
“The most notable symptom is somatization of mental illness, coupled with severe aggression.”
With that diagnosis alone, Jin’s mother qualified to be admitted to the psychiatric hospital!
Upon hearing she was going to be confined, Jin’s mother panicked immediately.
“I’m just a mother who gave up everything to make her child better! What did I do wrong?”
“You’re all villains! I’m calling the police! You want to separate me from my child forever!”
Jin’s mother’s emotions completely collapsed.
Qingwu cast her a brief look, then reached out to press down her swinging arm. “If anything’s unclear, go explain it to the police.”
Watching the psychiatric hospital staff take Jin’s mother away, Xu Xiaoru waved the diagnostics report in her hand.
Shen Jishi glanced toward the end of the corridor where Qingwu, clad in her white coat, had walked away.
“That doctor—doesn’t she look a bit like Qingwu?”
Xu Xiaoru patted him on the shoulder.
“Quit dodging the question. Come home and have dinner with me!”
“Don’t you think that doctor looks like Qingwu?”
“Why would your mentor be here anyway? Surely not to treat *your* mental breakdown, right?”
Shen Jishi clenched his fists tightly!
Unfortunately… he knew he couldn’t beat Xu Xiaoru, this violent woman. Watching her retreating figure, he swung his fist futilely in the air and had no choice but to follow!
“Did his mom go crazy just because you brought up my eldest brother’s situation?”
“Typically, NPD patients can’t accept that their daughters live better lives than they do. You think she set up a blind date with that mechanic for your sister-in-law just because she likes him? No—it’s because he’s beneath your sister-in-law.”
“For women, most of the suffering in their later years stems from marriage. By picking an unsuitable husband, she can ensure your sister-in-law remains stuck in misery for life. Quite the bargain, isn’t it?”
Xu Xiaoru casually sucked on a lollipop. “Even though Shen Lyu is a stellar attorney, it wouldn’t hurt him to study psychological problems occasionally.”
“You minored in psychology?”
Xu Xiaoru shrugged indifferently. “Not at all. It’s just that my dad has the same disorder, so I know it inside out.”
“But luckily, my family prioritizes practical benefits. It hasn’t gone as far as forcing me to marry a garbage truck driver. Young Master, you really lucked out.”
Though Shen Jishi was the youngest son of the Shen Family, he truly resented being called ‘Young Master’!
He tried to retort, but before he could, Xu Xiaoru stretched lazily, laughed heartily twice, and strode out of the hospital.
Shen Jishi had a sudden realization—he seemed to never win in arguments with Xu Xiaoru!
…
At Ye Yi’s Studio.
Li Zhu had prepared a batch of the latest haute couture fabrics, and Ji Qiurong stretched her neck as she waited for them to arrive.
Among these materials was the fabric reserved for the boss’s engagement gown!
There was also fabric Li Zhu planned to use for the haute couture fashion week exhibition.
Nothing could go wrong!
After waiting half an hour, Ji Qiurong grew impatient and decided to drive out to retrieve the materials herself.
If anything happened to this fabric, her boss might just skin her alive and use it to make clothing!
Ten minutes later, Ji Qiurong crouched in a corner and stealthily called Qingwu.
The voice coming from the other end of the line sounded like a thief murmuring.
“Boss, I think I saw your man on a date with another woman…”
“Speak straight.”
Ji Qiurong was caught off guard.
He double-checked and confirmed the man was indeed Pei Jue, and he even had a child with him!
Could it be that her boss’s man already had a child?!
Qingwu pressed her fingers against her temples. “Anything else?”
“Huh? I also saw a kid hanging around by our fabric. Could they be planning to pee on it or something?”
“Send me the address.”
Ji Qiurong got excited!
“Boss, are you coming to catch him in the act yourself?”
Qingwu replied coolly, “I’m personally coming to skin you, dye it, and turn it into fabric.”
