Chapter 538: Damn, Where Did I Lose?

In the prosecutor's family building.

After receiving her parents' clear support, Shen Xianglan couldn't help but feel relieved. She smiled and said, "He also has the intention of coming to visit you. Dad, when would be a good time? I'll bring him back for you to meet."

Shen Xianglan's father thought about his work schedule for the next few days and then replied, "If everything goes as planned, I should be free the day after tomorrow."

"Then, let's make it noon the day after tomorrow. I'll bring him back for a family dinner."

At this, Shen Xianglan looked at her brother and said, "Brother, I know you and Zou Weijie are close. Tell him not to waste his time on me. I already have a boyfriend, and there's no way I could like him. You should let him give up on me early."

Shen Baoshan sighed and said, "Xianglan, are you sure you won't reconsider?"

Shen Xianglan replied, "Brother, I'm not being impulsive. We've known each other for several years, and I've thought about it for three or four years before agreeing to be his girlfriend."

Hearing this, Shen Baoshan knew that there was no way to change her mind. He nodded and said, "Alright, I understand. I'll call him later, but I know his character. He might bear a grudge against your boyfriend. Remind him to be careful, so nothing happens."

At this, Shen Xianglan's father frowned immediately and asked, "Baoshan, is that guy really like that?"

Shen Baoshan said somewhat awkwardly, "Dad, Zou Weijie is quite friendly with people in his circle, but he looks down on those without a background. That's why he's a bit petty. During the dinner, he had a conflict with Xianglan's boyfriend. Now that Xianglan has given him no chance, I'm afraid he might take it out on her boyfriend."

Shen Xianglan said angrily, "He dares?"

Shen Xianglan's father's eyes narrowed slightly and asked, "What kind of conflict did they have?"

"Dad, it happened like this..."

Shen Xianglan explained the incident at the restaurant to her father and then said indignantly, "Dad, Zou Weijie was the one who started the insults. If he dares to do anything to Dongzi because of this, don't let him off."

Shen Xianglan's mother furrowed her brows, "Is he that domineering?"

Shen Xianglan's father snorted coldly, "Baoshan, remember to warn him when you call him."

Shen Baoshan replied, "Got it, Dad!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

Shen Xianglan's face was full of smiles. With her father's words, she no longer had to worry about her boyfriend's safety.

...

After leaving the restaurant, Zou Weijie became increasingly angry the more he thought about it.

As the son of a wealthy family, Zou Weijie had never lacked women. Over the years, he had been with at least a dozen women, and this was still under the condition that he was quite picky. If he wasn't picky, the number would easily double or even reach three digits.

However, those women were just tools for him to vent his frustrations; he had no intention of marrying any of them.

But Shen Xianglan was the first woman Zou Weijie wanted to marry.

The woman he considered his exclusive possession had, at some point, fallen into the arms of another man, which made him feel betrayed.

Zou Weijie didn't confront the other man on the spot that evening, partly out of respect for Shen Baoshan and partly out of caution, wanting to investigate the man's background before making a move, to avoid any unexpected setbacks.

Therefore, he had no interest in going out to play and instead returned to his residence to wait for Shen Baoshan's call. He believed he would soon know the details of that little punk.

In reality, this was the correct way to investigate someone's background. Unlike in some brain-dead novels and TV shows, where a complete stranger's full background is obtained within three minutes with just a phone call, that was just ridiculous.

After an unknown amount of time, his phone rang. He looked at the screen and saw that it was indeed Shen Baoshan calling. Zou Weijie answered immediately, "Brother Shan, have you found out that little punk's background? Does he have any connections?"

Shen Baoshan coughed and said, "Weijie, Xianglan's boyfriend doesn't have much of a background, but I have to tell you some bad news. It seems Xianglan has set her mind on him, and my parents respect her decision, so... sigh..."

Zou Weijie said agitatedly, "Why would Xianglan choose a nobody? This is really infuriating. Where did I lose to that little punk?"

Shen Baoshan said, "Weijie, don't get too worked up. Although I want to help you, matters of the heart can't be forced. Xianglan is quite stubborn, and once she sets her mind on something, even my parents can't change it. As a friend, I can only advise you to let it go."

Zou Weijie couldn't help but swear, "Damn, where did I lose?"

Shen Baoshan sighed, "Weijie, let it go!"

Zou Weijie gritted his teeth and said, "Damn little punk!"

Shen Baoshan, remembering his father's warning, cautioned, "Weijie, my father has officially invited Xianglan's boyfriend to our home. Don't have any funny ideas, or my father will come down hard on you."

Zou Weijie fell silent for three whole seconds before saying, "I understand, Brother Shan. I'll hang up now and talk to you later."

After hanging up, Zou Weijie's face turned ashen, and he threw his phone to the ground with all his might. With a loud "bang," the phone shattered into pieces.

He was already furious about being cheated, and he was planning to teach that little punk a lesson. But then Shen Baoshan's words made him even more frustrated, leaving him with no outlet for his anger. Unless that little punk fails to impress the Shen family, he would have to think twice before making a move.

However, even if he couldn't use force, he would make sure that little punk's life was miserable. Shen Baoshan just said he would invite that little punk to their home, didn't he? Maybe there was something he could do there. Zou Weijie fell into deep thought.

...

In the afternoon.

In a family building in Chengdu, Building 1.

Knowing that her father-in-law was coming, Gu Caiwei prepared a large table of delicious dishes.

Gu Caiwei's cooking skills had improved tremendously over the years. When she first met Deng Yunheng, she couldn't cook at all. Later, she learned from her mother for a while and started to cook seriously after marrying Deng Yunheng.

Over the years, as Deng Yunheng's position grew, Gu Caiwei put more effort into cooking. She couldn't help her husband much with his work, but she could make sure he had a delicious meal when he came home from work.
