Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 585 I'm sorry, Madam

Two days passed quickly.

During this period, both Yu Li and Qin Jingru gave up their jobs to their family members: Yu Li's eldest niece and Qin Jingru's youngest niece.

Li Guoqiang, besides spending time with Wu Caie, Zhen Hexiang, and Yu Jiaxue in turn, gave Luo Guofu a large pile of letters that Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan, and others had written to their families in advance, along with a thousand yuan, asking him to help send a letter and ten yuan back home each month.

This can prevent their families from worrying because they haven't heard from them for a long time, thus avoiding unnecessary trouble.

"Qiangzi, what time are we leaving tomorrow?"

On the third night, Qin Jingru, Yu Li, and Qin Huairu played whack-a-mole with Li Guoqiang, and then, unable to contain their curiosity and anticipation, asked him a question.

"You'll find out when the time comes!" Li Guoqiang raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and kept everyone in suspense.

"Oh!" Qin Jingru pouted, somewhat displeased.

"Alright, we'll find out tomorrow anyway, why are you in such a hurry?" Yu Li gently patted him on the shoulder.

Qin Huairu remained silent, her head bowed in deep turmoil.

Soon, Qin Jingru and Yu Li, filled with anticipation, drifted off to sleep.

As for Qin Huairu, she listened to the breathing sounds coming from beside her, tossing and turning, feeling very tired but unable to fall asleep.

Even the thought of being left all alone in the courtyard, waiting anxiously for Li Guoqiang to return every day, filled her with an indescribable sadness.

why?
Why was she the only one abandoned?

Just as she was silently wiping away the tears welling up in the darkness, a long, strong hand suddenly appeared on her shoulder.

"Are you alright?" Li Guoqiang asked gently.

"No, it's nothing!" Qin Huairu shook her head, trying to appear strong.

"Take this money and use it to buy yourself some good food." Li Guoqiang handed over ten 10-yuan bills.

"Waaah~" Qin Huairu looked at the big black dog in front of her and couldn't help but cry.

Although she liked money, compared to being able to stay by Li Guoqiang's side, this amount of money was nothing.

What makes her even more upset is that now she is the only one left in the courtyard who is collecting money.

"Alright, don't think so much. It's not like we're never coming back," Li Guoqiang said softly, trying to comfort him.

In fact, the netizens' evaluation of Qin Huairu in the previous life was correct. If we don't consider that she was already married, then she was very good in terms of personality, appearance and figure.

Just like these past few days, even though there were some inconveniences, Qin Huairu tried her best to take good care of him and even helped Yao Meilan with a lot of things.

Unfortunately, in Qin Huairu's heart, the Jia family and her children were the most important.

"Mmm!" Qin Huairu nodded pitifully.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang could only reach out and help Qin Huairu exhaust her last bit of energy so that she could fall asleep smoothly.

Then, he took out silver needles and pricked Qin Jingru and Yu Li to ensure they could sleep for a whole day.

Immediately, he put them all into his small world, then used teleportation to leave the courtyard and head towards the airport.

When he arrived, he was just in time for the passengers to board, which made him feel a little relieved.

Fortunately, I made it in time; otherwise, if I wanted to return to Hong Kong, I would have had to wait for the next flight, and I don't know how long that would have taken.

Counting the days, it's been more than half a month since he returned from Hong Kong. I wonder what his wives have done to Qiangsheng Group.
Also, are they probably still busy playing mahjong at home all day?

"Hey, when do you guys think Qiangzi will be back?"

At this moment, in the two-story house in Repulse Bay, Shang Xiuzhen was playing with a pistol when she asked Pan Qiaoyan, Xu Yuying, and others who were studying a submachine gun.

"How would I know? Speaking of which, my skin has been in a bad state lately. I wonder what Qiangzi is doing right now? If he doesn't come back soon, I don't know how I'm going to go out and face people!"

Pan Qiaoyan, who is usually the most vain, showed a slight hint of resentment on her face.

"Tch, I think you're not worried about your skin getting worse, you're just craving meat, aren't you?"

Shang Xiuzhen rolled her eyes, looking disgusted.

"Hmph! I'm just craving it, aren't you all craving it too?"

Pan Qiaoyan gave a light snort, her face full of self-righteousness.

Upon hearing her words, the others fell silent.

After all, flowers always need enough sunshine and rain to grow healthily.

What's more, this is the first time Li Guoqiang has been away from home for such a long time since they came to Hong Kong!

In addition, during this period, under Luo Huijuan's arrangement, they not only had to learn how to manage the company and their subordinates, how to use guns to eliminate enemies and protect themselves, but also how to be a qualified wealthy wife.

They even had to learn how to punish those traitors who betrayed their own side.

Even now, they can clearly remember the screams that burst from the traitor's mouth and the blood that splattered from his brain.

Therefore, they are eager to release their stress and clear away their negative emotions.

"Alright, all of you, it's been so long and you still haven't managed to get a shot into the 8 rings. If you don't keep working this hard, then even if Qiangzi comes back, you'll still have to get a shot into the 8 rings."

At this moment, Luo Huijuan, who was sitting to the side wearing a cheongsam and gently swirling a glass of red wine, suddenly spoke up in a somewhat annoyed tone, lecturing him.

"No, Sister Juan, do you think everyone is as twisted as you? No matter what kind of gun it is, you treat it like a game. I'm starting to seriously suspect that Qiangzi used to teach you how to use it?"

Pan Qiaoyan looked indignant.

"Yes! You disagree?" Luo Huijuan raised an eyebrow, her authoritative gaze sweeping over Pan Qiaoyan.

"How could I dare!" Pan Qiaoyan readily lowered her head and admitted defeat.

"And you?" Luo Huijuan turned her gaze to the others.

The next moment, everyone lowered their heads slightly, not daring to meet Luo Huijuan's gaze.

At that moment, images flashed through their minds of Luo Huijuan pulling the trigger, shooting one after another like watermelons. From that moment on, in their hearts, Luo Huijuan was not only the beautiful and elegant first wife, but also had another title: the Iron-Blooded Woman.

Seeing her sisters' reactions, Luo Huijuan smiled slightly, revealing a satisfied expression. Then she tilted her head back and drank the red wine in her glass in one gulp.

A drop of crimson wine slid from the corner of her mouth, down her fair and slender neck, and gradually disappeared into her collar, just like the drop of blood that splattered from the head that had exploded before her eyes.

"Let's go! Let's go out to the beach to practice shooting!" Luo Huijuan said seriously.

"Yes!" Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan, and the others all answered loudly.

Afterwards, they quickly changed into sportswear, then took various guns and followed Luo Huijuan to the beach.

At the same time, two teams of fully armed guards quickly set up an impregnable defensive line around them.

Furthermore, there is an armed helicopter in the nearby mountains, ready to provide support at any time, demonstrating that all kinds of extreme situations have been taken into account.

However, looking at the entire southern district, nearly 80% of the population now depends on Qiangsheng Group for their livelihood.

More importantly, the working conditions at Johnson & Johnson are so good that some employees have even set up longevity plaques for Li Guoqiang at home.

Under such circumstances, how could anyone be so blind as to cause trouble for Luo Huijuan and her group?
If someone actually dares to do that, then the security personnel won't even need to lift a finger; the henchmen guarding the outermost perimeter alone will be enough to give them a good beating.

And just like that, the evening of the second day arrived in the blink of an eye.

After finishing their beach combat training, Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan, and the others, all dragging their tired steps and covered in sweat, sat in their off-road vehicles, ready to go home.

However, before they even reached their doorstep, they saw a group of mysterious people, heavily armed to the teeth and exuding a powerful aura, suddenly appear in front of their house.

In the middle of the entrance stood a burly man, Li Chongjiu, who looked as dangerous as a wild beast.

This surprised them at first, but then they suddenly realized something, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

"Madam!" Li Chongjiu's voice was somewhat cold.

"Yes, your boss is back, right?" Luo Huijuan asked, her voice trembling with excitement.

"Yes!" A hint of genuine respect flashed across Li Chongjiu's face.

"Then hurry up and open the door!" Pan Qiaoyan said impatiently.

However, Li Chongjiu seemed not to hear him and simply looked at Luo Huijuan quietly.

Pan Qiaoyan was somewhat annoyed.

Although she knew that a secret bodyguard like Li Chongjiu would not listen to anyone except Li Guoqiang and Luo Huijuan, she still felt embarrassed by being disrespected to her face as a concubine.

"Alright, hurry up and open the door!" Luo Huijuan first gave Pan Qiaoyan a reassuring look, and then gave Li Chongjiu an order.

"I'm sorry, Madam, the boss has already taken back your command. We cannot follow your orders now." Li Chongjiu shook his head, his face serious.

Luo Huijuan glared at him, immediately becoming angry.

Just as she was about to lose her temper, she suddenly saw Li Chongjiu speaking respectfully into his earpiece.
"Okay, boss!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Chongjiu quickly stepped aside and gestured for Luo Huijuan and the others to come in, saying, "Madam, the boss invites you in!"

"Hmph!" Luo Huijuan snorted coldly in dissatisfaction upon seeing this, and then led Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan and others to walk past Li Chongjiu.

She was initially quite excited to learn that Li Guoqiang had returned.

However, she did not expect that as soon as Li Guoqiang returned, he would take away her command and make Li Chongjiu embarrass her in front of so many sisters.

If there isn't a reasonable explanation, she's determined to make this deal with Li Guoqiang.

Soon, as the courtyard gate slowly opened, Luo Huijuan, Shang Xiuzhen, and the others quickly walked inside.

Before long, they walked past a lush green bamboo and saw Li Guoqiang lying in the pavilion with his legs crossed.

Also, there were three women kneeling in front of Li Guoqiang.

"How...how did they get here?" Luo Huijuan's eyes narrowed, a hint of surprise showing on her face.

You should know that these three women were promoted by her from ordinary employees, with the aim of cultivating her trusted subordinates to counterbalance the old guard in the company.

Originally, she was planning to tell Li Guoqiang about this when he returned.

Unexpectedly, Li Guoqiang actually brought the person here directly.

"Madam, please!"

At this moment, Li Chongjiu also walked in from outside the courtyard gate, and then gestured to Luo Huijuan, who had stopped, to invite her in.

Luo Huijuan glanced at Li Chongjiu, some guesses forming in her mind, and then slowly walked towards Li Guoqiang.

"Wife, come sit here!" Li Guoqiang pointed to the chair next to him and greeted her with a chuckle.

"Hmm!" Luo Huijuan suppressed her doubts and, along with Shang Xiuzhen, Pan Qiaoyan, and others, sat down next to Li Guoqiang.

"Speak! Chongjiu, tell Madam what good deeds they've been up to behind the scenes." Li Guoqiang waved his hand and gave an order to Li Chongjiu.

"Yes!" Li Chongjiu nodded respectfully, then walked behind one of the women, grabbed her hair, and revealed her pale face.

"Madam, this is your secretary. She used your name to gather a large number of mid-to-senior level employees in the company, and then used her position to forge many documents signed by you, embezzling more than 30 million yuan from the company."

And this one, the general manager of the cosmetics company you appointed, used her power with her boyfriend to buy a batch of cosmetics with excessive heavy metals using company funds, almost causing 137 female customers to be disfigured.

The last one is the security supervisor you promoted; she's an undercover agent sent by Wo Shing.

"How could you do this to me?" Upon hearing this, Luo Huijuan couldn't help but stand up angrily, pointing at the three trusted confidants she had personally cultivated.

At the same time, she also realized why Li Guoqiang had taken away her management authority over the security personnel as soon as he returned.

Putting everything else aside, with her limited ability to judge people, she is simply not up to the responsibilities of a lady of the house.

Based solely on what Li Chongjiu said, it's clear that she caused her family at least 50 million yuan in losses this time.

From this perspective, it's already good enough that she wasn't scolded, let alone that all that was done was to take back her command.
