When the Green Tea Female Side Character Wants to Ridicule the Male Lead - Chapter 7
Chapter 7
“Xi Le, I’m fine… If there’s someone admiring Brother Mohan, it’s his good fortune. Blame me; I’m not good enough to let Brother Mohan and his secretary be together…” Ruan Chacha pretended to cry while covering her face. Unexpectedly, the company’s shareholders and executives also happened to come out. What a coincidence! The green tea value is soaring!
Xi Le was infuriated. “Madam! How could it be your fault? This secretary has been trying to drive you away since she came in, and now she even laid hands on you…”
Helplessly, Ruan Chacha shook her head and said, “Xi Le, as long as Brother Mohan is happy and content, what does it matter if I get hit or scolded? Brother Mohan… I only hope you can come home for a meal; just a glance from you, and that’s enough for Chacha.” Such a touching display of true love!
Xi Le cried bitterly, moved by Madam’s deep love for her husband.
Dugu Mohan: “…”
He probably wanted to strangle her, feeling the “intense scrutiny and reproach” from the shareholders and executives behind him.
“Is there any truth to this?” Dugu Mohan asked the secretary.
The secretary shook her head and said, “No, I didn’t push or hit Madam, I swear.”
Dugu Mohan’s expression grew colder. “Is there any truth to the allegation of trying to drive her away?”
Reluctant to admit it, the secretary faced Xi Le’s accusations: “You dare say you didn’t? You even said I was just a servant. Who do you think you are? Coward!”
Knowing she was in the wrong, the secretary tried to pull Dugu Mohan: “President, I shouldn’t have driven Madam away. I just saw her injured foot and suggested she go home and wait. Please, President, give me another chance…”
Xi Le spat at her, a gesture of disdain. She may not be educated, but this was how folks from her hometown criticized others.
Ruan Chacha couldn’t help but give Xi Le a thumbs-up. This girl was pretty good, full of a sense of justice. She decided to give her a raise when she went back; it’s not like she needed her money anyway.
Dugu Mohan remained unmoved: “Mr. Jin, never employ this secretary in any company under the group.”
Following behind Dugu Mohan, a male secretary adjusted his glasses and said, “Yes, President.”
The secretary couldn’t believe that the person she loved so deeply would treat her like this. “President! I like you! You know that, right? You know!”
But Dugu Mohan was not one to be swayed by the constant scrutiny from people around him; he wasn’t the kind to be polite or soft-hearted.
“Get out!” Dugu Mohan didn’t want to spare another glance at the secretary.
Ruan Chacha was amazed at Dugu Mohan’s reaction. It seemed he genuinely didn’t know about the incident. Tut tut tut, this advanced stage of straight male stubbornness is truly beyond comprehension.
“Brother Mohan, if you feel reluctant, I won’t tell Grandpa. I’m fine. As long as you’re happy, that’s enough for me.” Ruan Chacha gave a wry smile to Dugu Mohan.
Ruan Chacha’s implication was that Dugu Mohan had fired the secretary only because he didn’t want Grandpa to know. In reality, he wasn’t willing to do so.
Dugu Mohan had a headache. “Stop making up stories. Secretary Jin, call An Nan and ask him to come over.”
Secretary Jin quickly dialed An Nan after dismissing the female secretary. “Yes, President.”
The moment this fabrication came out, Xi Le exploded, “Sir! Madam loves you so much and is eagerly waiting to see you. She’s been hurt so much, and you think she’s just making trouble? No wonder your secretary said you didn’t want to see Madam; that’s why you haven’t been home for days!”
Xi Le was infuriated. She might as well quit; the boss was too mean to Madam.
Ruan Chacha absolutely loved Xi Le. From now on, Xi Le would be her person, with a raise in salary—much more than she needed. Ruan Chacha’s eyes were filled with green tea value +2.
Dugu Mohan probably didn’t expect that even the maid he cared for dared to shout at him. He was about to scold her when Xi Le turned even more fierce.
“I’m going to tell Uncle Xing! Let Uncle Xing tell Old Master Dugu.” Xi Le vented her dissatisfaction. The boss wasn’t afraid of anything but Old Master Dugu.
Dugu Mohan’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and Ruan Chacha didn’t give him a chance to speak.
“Xi Le, don’t talk to Brother Mohan like that. Brother Mohan is actually very good to me. It’s just that Brother Mohan has to come home no matter what, or everyone worries about you. If Brother Mohan feels ‘inconvenient,’ he can tell me, and I can stay at my parents’ house for a night.”
Ruan Chacha thought the situation wasn’t chaotic enough, so she added fuel to the fire, increasing the green tea value.
Upon hearing this, everyone understood. It turned out that Dugu Mohan hadn’t been coming home because he was hanging out somewhere else. The legitimate wife came to look for him, and she got scolded and hit by others. Dugu Mohan was really not doing well.
Those shareholders who previously had confidence in Dugu Mohan’s conduct were disappointed. They had watched Dugu Mohan grow up, never expecting him to turn out like this.
An older man with a cane slammed it on Dugu Mohan’s back, saying, “Mohan, bringing a wife home is for pampering. You’ve gone too far with Chacha, disappointing Uncle Qin.” After speaking, he shook his head, turned around, and walked away with his cane.
Dugu Mohan didn’t have time to react. Several shareholders took turns lecturing him, all looking disappointed. The higher-ups didn’t dare say much but stared at him with a gaze that said “unfaithful man.”
Dugu Mohan: “???”
His cold face looked completely innocent, as if he didn’t understand why his situation had changed so drastically.
The value of green tea kept increasing by +2+1, making Ruan Chacha struggle to maintain a facade of sadness. Today’s visit to the company was indeed fruitful.
“Ruan Chacha!” Dugu Mohan was frustrated and angry, his headache intensifying.
Ruan Chacha took advantage of the onlookers to leave, and Xi Le happened to turn her back to herself. She grinned brilliantly at Dugu Mohan, with no trace of sadness flowing upstream into a river.
Gritting his teeth, Dugu Mohan glared at Ruan Chacha, veins popping on his forehead. “You’re playing tricks on me again!”
Xi Le quickly stood in front of Ruan Chacha. “Sir, you can’t bully Madam anymore!” She fiercely confronted Dugu Mohan.
This scene was witnessed by Han Annan, who had just entered. He frowned, looked at Ruan Chacha, who was sitting on the sofa with support, and then at Dugu Mohan, who exuded obvious hostility.
Having not walked far after receiving the call, Han Annan guessed that something had happened to Ruan Chacha again. However, he didn’t expect Dugu Mohan to actually resort to violence.
“Mohan, don’t be impulsive.” Han Annan, carrying a medical kit, intercepted Dugu Mohan.
Seeing Han Annan, Dugu Mohan withdrew the murderous intent, cast a sideways glance at Ruan Chacha, and sternly said, “Don’t play tricks on me again.” He sat down on the office chair.
Facing Dugu Mohan’s warning, Ruan Chacha internally rolled her eyes. Did he really think she was afraid of him now? What a joke.
“Brother Mohan, it’s all my fault for making you suffer,” Ruan Chacha whimpered.
Xi Le was too angry to speak. Madam was so afraid of losing her husband that she became so submissive.
Even Han Annan couldn’t bear it. “Mohan, that’s enough!” He pulled Dugu Mohan down with a stern face.
Dugu Mohan: “…”
Glaring angrily at Ruan Chacha
Innocently, Ruan Chacha blinked at him, asking, “Happy or not? Surprised or not?”
Han Annan re-bandaged Ruan Chacha’s leg. Fortunately, the injury was minor this time. “Don’t twist your ankle again; otherwise, it’ll leave a chronic problem.”
Ruan Chacha nodded quickly. She needed to be careful; she didn’t want to limp at such a young age. Although she didn’t touch her injured foot this time, it seemed to be healing, and she couldn’t afford to accidentally hurt it again.
