Chapter 279: You Are a Fortunate Person

Hearing about Cheng Su’s car accident, Ning Ge and the others were terrified. Once they got off work, they all rushed to Cheng Su’s home to visit her, repeatedly saying that there was no hurry for the company and the restaurant matters, as they would take care of it, and urged her to rest well at home.

Cheng Su felt that Qi Taiguo did it on purpose. She was fine by herself, but he had made her stay at home to recover, as if she were handicapped. It was only a scraped hand and a mild concussion, not mangled hands and feet.

But Cheng Su dared not argue, because they were united and single-minded, while she was just a lone person. She had no choice but to obediently listen.

"Don’t be so indignant," Ning Ge said laughingly. "Not just Big Brother Qi, even we felt anxious when we heard. A concussion is no small matter. One wrong move, and you could become an idiot. We can’t go around calling you ’Silly Su,’ haha!"

Cheng Su grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at him: "Scram!"

"Don’t be like that, this is all for your own good!" Ning Ge caught the pillow and then asked, "So, does this mean you two are reconciled?"

He gestured with his chin toward the bathroom.

"I’m like this now, would he still argue with me?" Cheng Su snorted softly.

"That may be true, but you should still take care of him a bit, considering he’s a soldier, with a manly disposition and that macho thing. Both of you take a step back, and you’re almost there," Ning Ge advised. "My sisters-in-law, they’re busy outside but still make time to come home and cook delicious meals for my brothers. Juggling both career and family, you should take a leaf out of their book!"

Cheng Su glared: "It’s easy for you to talk, not knowing the pain of the labor. Are you not aware that the company just started, with so much to do? Do you think I’m too lazy to cook?"

Ning Ge smiled awkwardly, "Alright, alright, then I’ll also give Big Brother Qi a talking-to."

"What talking-to?" Qi Taiguo, holding a plate of washed fruits, took the book from Cheng Su’s hands and put an apple in her hand: "Rest well, don’t strain your brain, and eat an apple. It’s good for you!"

Cheng Su felt like she was being treated like a pig being fed, dumped into a trough with the words: Eat up, get nice and fat for a good price!

Ning Ge winked at her and slung an arm over Qi Taiguo’s shoulder, "Big Brother, I’ve got a few moves I’d like to ask you about. How about we go downstairs and try a couple of moves?"

Without waiting for Qi Taiguo’s consent, he dragged him away.

Cheng Su chuckled to herself.

Once they were downstairs, Ning Ge mockingly sparred a few moves with Qi Taiguo before collapsing on the ground, claiming he had enough.

"Spill it, what’s on your mind?" Qi Taiguo took out a cigarette, lit one for himself, and offered one to Ning Ge.

Ning Ge took a drag and said, "Nothing much. What could it be? What are you thinking though? This accident with sister-in-law, it clearly happened because of your argument."

Qi Taiguo frowned.

"I don’t really know what’s going on between you two, but from sister-in-law’s perspective, it seems like you’re not too happy about her getting involved in business?" Ning Ge continued, "But Big Brother Qi, you’ve really misunderstood her. In her heart, it’s always you first. And let’s be honest, I really admire her!"

"Oh?" Qi Taiguo raised an eyebrow, glancing at him sideways.

"Don’t you think so? I’m just speaking objectively; no discrimination against her background. Sister-in-law comes from humble beginnings, yet opened her own small restaurant and even started a business with me. It hasn’t even been a year. A person from the village with neither prominent family nor connections has come this far. Sure, there’s a bit of luck and opportunity, but it’s mainly her own hard work that got her here, step by step. It’s just like you, Big Brother Qi. Tell me, doesn’t she deserve my respect? And compared to those women who cry at the drop of a hat, Big Brother Qi, don’t you think such a wife suits you better?" Ning Ge looked at Qi Taiguo and spoke: "Big Brother Qi, you really are a very fortunate man!"

Having such a wife, if not a blessing, then what?
