Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss

Chapter 437: Chapter 411: Tattling (500+ monthly tickets update)

“Don’t take what just happened to heart. Getting angry over such people isn’t worth it.” Xiao Qian advised. This child had just graduated from high school and had just entered society. What she encountered was different from what she learned in school, so there was inevitably a gap in her thoughts.

“It’s totally unreasonable. I don’t understand how our people can be so cold-blooded! What are our men doing! Why can’t they have some backbone!” Liu Li said angrily.

This child… Xiao Qian thought about how she was about the same age, with a somewhat charming, silly enthusiasm. Everyone has their passionate, hot-blooded moments in life, but reality can be harsh, grinding people’s passions away.

“Sorry, I shouldn’t have told you all of that…” After complaining a few times, Liu Li sheepishly smiled at Xiao Qian. Suddenly, he had a thought: if this girl was his mother’s student, then…

“Beautiful girl, can you do me a favor?” Liu Li asked Xiao Qian.

“What favor?”

“Could you please tell my mom about what happened today, gently? She never believes me when I say anything.”

Xiao Qian readily agreed.

“Fine, I’ll tell your mother when I get back.”

“Thank you, beauty. What’s your name?”

“I’m Chen Xiaoqian.”

“I’m Liu Li.”

Liu Li was a sunny boy with simple thoughts, full of youthful passion, and had a radiant smile. Professor Liu suspected that the boy had a mild manic disorder, but in Xiao Qian’s eyes, he was just a sunny, lovable boy.

Although manic disorder can be considered a disease, it has a positive effect as long as it doesn’t reach a pathological level. Many domineering CEOs have a manic disorder tendency, and manic disorder can stimulate creativity. Many billionaires have restless souls, and manic disorder is common in highly-educated, high-quality individuals. However, it’s problematic once it reaches a pathological level, leading to manic depression and affecting one’s life.

Xiaoqian looked at Liu Li and thought of her playboy brother, also a young boy. But compared to Liu Li, her playboy brother still had a long way to go.

“Beauty, are you attracted to me?” Liu Li saw Xiao Qian smiling at him and joked.

“No, I was just thinking of my younger brother. I have a brother in junior high school, but he doesn’t have your kind of passion. He just becomes energetic in front of beautiful girls.”

Xiao Qian accurately assessed Chen Zilong, which was definitely not wronging him.

Chen Zilong was usually a worthless person, but if there was a pretty girl by his side, everything changed. Like a shot of adrenaline, he would exert himself to impress, especially in front of beautiful girls, whether he knew them or not. As long as there was a pretty girl beside him, he would try his best to show off.

For example, earlier, if it was Chen Zilong, he would have first observed the surroundings to see if there were any pretty girls before stepping in. If so, he would have been up for it.

He would play the hero and show off his prowess.

Or when he was with his group of friends, he would also show off and take the lead.

But if it were just Chen Zilong by himself, and if he was surrounded by a group of older women, he would definitely keep quiet. Comparing him with Liu Li made the difference in their level of awareness quite clear.

“Beauty, how old are you? How can you treat me like a younger brother?”

Liu Li felt a little unconvinced, thinking that Xiao Qian was about the same age as him, and even looked a little younger.

“Well… I’m your mother’s apprentice. You tell me how old I am, little brother. Quick, call me sister!” Xiao Qian mischievously misled him.

After thinking about it, it made sense to Liu Li that his mother’s students would be older than him, as they were all graduate students and doctoral students.

“Sister!”

“Good boy~” Xiao Qian pushed up her glasses and revealed a small triumphant smile.

It was a long time later that Liu Li found out Xiao Qian was actually two months younger than him. He had been tricked into calling her sister for so long, she was practically cunning. But that’s another story.

For now, Xiao Qian, who took advantage of Liu Li, hailed a taxi, “Let’s go, little brother. Big sister will give you a ride home.”

“Thanks, sister, but I’m not going home. I’m going to the hospital.”

“That’s on the way. I can give you a lift – what are you going to the hospital for?”

“I had a small minimally invasive surgery on my stomach, and I need a doctor to give me a health certificate. Otherwise, they won’t agree to let me join the army.”

Xiao Qian suddenly brightened up. So he was going to join the army. It was a good thing, an honor filled with youthful fervor.

“Does your teacher agree?”

“It doesn’t matter if she agrees or not, I’m already 18 years old.”

“Does your father agree?”

Liu Li proudly patted his wallet, “My dad gave me the money for the expenses!”

“…” Uncle Liu was asking for trouble.

Xiao Qian could imagine that the teacher would not be happy once she found out. According to her understanding of Professor Liu, the teacher would be furious…

On the way back, Xiao Qian was contemplating whether she should report the matter to the teacher.

Liu Li was quite honest and didn’t guard against Xiao Qian from telling his mother everything. He didn’t know Xiao Qian would know so much about his family, nor did he expect that her casual words would make Xiao Qian think so much.

Considering the teacher’s elder son had already passed away, the teacher blamed herself for valuing work over family. It’s clear that she wouldn’t agree to her younger son choosing this path, as she wanted to find a more comfortable life for him.

By rights, Xiao Qian shouldn’t interfere in other people’s family affairs.

However, thinking of the teacher in her past life addressing her elder son’s picture while offering incense, Xiao Qian couldn’t bear it.

What did Liu Li do in his past life?

Xiao Qian couldn’t remember, as the teacher rarely mentioned this child. Xiao Qian didn’t know much about him, but she remembered the teacher once mentioned in passing that the two children were ruined because of their master’s irresponsibility.

Is it possible that the second brother had an accident too, which was why the teacher said that?

Xiao Qian’s analysis became more and more plausible.

When she returned and reported to Professor Liu about Chu Xuan’s treatment process, Professor Liu was very satisfied that Xiao Qian had handled it well.

“I’ll talk to your advisor this afternoon about letting you take extra credits early – but you must also work hard. There is only one chance, and the consequences of failure are clear to you.”

“Thank you, teacher.”

Professor Liu saw that Xiao Qian didn’t leave after speaking, and asked doubtfully.

“Is there anything else?”

“Today, I met Liu Li on the bus…”

Xiao Qian recounted what happened, and Professor Liu listened with a frown.

“That naughty boy, he’s so energetic, just like someone with manic disorder… I’ve always suspected he has a manic disorder, with his impulsiveness and poor self-control! But this time, he behaved like a decent person.”

All mothers praise their children like this – appearing very dissatisfied yet actually feeling very proud.

Xiao Qian completed the task Liu Li gave her, knowing that he would definitely use this incident to negotiate with his mother about his desire to leave home in the future.

“Teacher…”

“Hmm?”
