Ding Ning's experiment was finally interrupted.
All the girls knew their man's temper. Even their elder sister, Ding Qianlie, would never disturb him when he was doing an experiment.
Although this guy usually spoiled them, if anyone disturbed his experiment, he would definitely fly into a rage with a dark face. He would not give them any face, just like how he would get angry when he woke up. This was a habit that everyone could understand.
But even Ding Qianlie couldn't ignore some people's calls, such as the one calling at this time. There must be something urgent, so she had to brace herself to interrupt Ding Ning's concentrated experiment.
"It's Governor Du."
Ding Qianlie covered the phone and said in time before Ding Ning's sullen face could get angry.
If it was in the past, she might not disturb Governor Du even if he called, but it was different now.
Although Du Mosheng's memory was erased, everyone knew that she was actually one of the sisters. Governor Du had been promoted from the governor of a city to Ding Ning's prospective father-in-law, so he naturally had to treat him differently.
As expected, Ding Ning, who had a guilty conscience against Governor Du, immediately lost his anger. He looked at his elder sister, who was full of hidden bitterness, with an apologetic look, and she rolled her eyes coquettishly. Then he took the phone and said in a pleasant tone, "Uncle Du, why do you call me so late? What's the matter?"
"Oh, it's already late? Didn't you notice the time? Haha, did I disturb your rest? "
Governor Du's insincere greeting made Ding Ning not know whether to laugh or cry. After a hollow laugh, he flattered, "No, Uncle Du, you are so busy with your work that you even forget to eat and sleep, which makes me admire you. You are my role model and model."
"Alright, stop flattering me. You brat, how did you become so glib-tongued after staying in Wu City for a few days? Don't tell me you learned it from that old thing Cheng Jiaan?"
Governor Du scolded him with a smile and joked.
"Ah, how did Uncle Du know that I went to Wushi?"
Ding Ning was slightly stunned, but then he realized that the Qiao Family was one of the aristocratic families, so they naturally had their own information channels. Besides, from what he said, it seemed that he was very familiar with Governor Cheng, so it was not strange that he knew.
"Cheng Jiaan is my and Xinyu's old classmate. This old guy had pursued Xinyu, but unfortunately, Xinyu didn't like him."
Governor Du's tone was filled with unspeakable complacency and pride.
Through the phone, Ding Ning could feel his complacency. It seemed that Governor Cheng was also a strong rival in love. Otherwise, how could he be so complacent?
In fact, his guess was not wrong. Back then, Cheng Jiaan was not only his rival in love, but also his roommate and one of his few good friends.
After Governor Du learned that Cheng Jiaan also liked Qiao Xinyu, he felt sad that Cheng Jiaan was a good friend who had always taken good care of him. He even wanted to give her to Cheng Jiaan.
For a period of time, Qiao Xinyu and Cheng Jiaan were very close because of his intentional matchmaking, which made him sad. However, he was born in a poor family and had an inferiority complex. He felt that he was not worthy of Qiao Xinyu at all, so he could only bear the heartache and silently bless them.
However, Qiao Xinyu was a clear-cut person. Although she was close to Cheng Jiaan, she just thought that he was a friend of Governor Du and had no feelings for him at all.
In the end, Qiao Xinyu saw through Governor Du's cowardice. She cried and shouted that he was not a man, turned around, and ran away.
Only then did Cheng Jiaan know that Qiao Xinyu had always liked Governor Du, and Governor Du obviously also liked her.
Although he was sad, he still had a strong character. He helped Qiao Xinyu to scold Governor Du, saying that love was not something that could be transferred at will, and that he, Cheng Jiaan, had not fallen to the point that he needed someone to give him a chance to win the heart of a beauty.
Seeing that Governor Du kept his head down and did not say anything, Cheng Jiaan was so angry that he said on the spot that he would compete fairly with Governor Du, pursue Qiao Xinyu with his own ability, and make her fall in love with him.
Unfortunately, this provocation did not work on Governor Du, who had an extremely low self-esteem. From that day on, Governor Du not only did not pursue Qiao Xinyu, but also avoided her far away, and even avoided Cheng Jiaan.
Qiao Xinyu was also stimulated, so she pretended to fall in love with Cheng Jiaan, which broke Governor Du's heart. However, in front of them, he pretended that nothing had happened and kept congratulating them, which made Qiao Xinyu so angry that she slapped him and ran away crying.
It was this slap that was seen by another Childe who pursued Qiao Xinyu. He thought that Governor Du had bullied Qiao Xinyu, so he brought people to teach him a lesson.
Governor Du was already upset. Now that this guy came to provoke him, how could he bear it? The blood in his bones was stimulated, and he rushed to fight with them. Although he was outnumbered, he did not flinch at all. Although he was covered in blood, he still grinned ferociously and was not afraid of death.
Then, Qiao Xinyu heard the news and came here. She boldly and fiercely announced in public that Governor Du was her future husband, and whoever dared to hurt him would be against her.
Deeply moved, Governor Du desperately accepted this girl who dared to love and hate. In the end, although the road was bumpy, they finally became husband and wife with their efforts.
It had to be said that as long as it was related to their lovers, men would be a little narrow-minded. Although Governor Du finally got the beauty, he still held a grudge against the fact that Cheng Jiaan had fallen in love with his wife.
Although he knew that it was fake and was done to stimulate him, Cheng Jiaan really put his arms around his wife's waist in front of him, which made him very unhappy. Although it did not affect their friendship, he had developed the habit of mocking Cheng Jiaan. Ding Ning gave a hollow laugh.
In the face of his future father-in-law's narcissism, what else could he say? He could only apologize to Cheng Jiaan secretly and continued to flatter him. "Of course, Uncle Du is knowledgeable and wise. You must have been a romantic and elegant person when you were young. How can Governor Cheng compare with you? Aunt Xinyu has good taste."
Hearing this, Governor Du was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Of course, I'm not bragging. Back then … ouch, be gentle, it hurts …"
Before he finished his words, Governor Du's begging for mercy came from the other end of the phone. It seemed that a heroine who dared to love and hate could not bear to listen to him anymore. She began to pull his ears and interrupted his bragging.
Hearing this, Ding Ning was secretly amused. "Who asked you to brag? Now you are going to blow your top."
"Little Ding, don't listen to that old thing's nonsense. Back then, he pursued me …"
Qiao Xinyu's somewhat embarrassed voice came from the phone. Then, she began to talk about how glorious she was at school and how many childes bowed to her. If Governor Du had not pursued her shamelessly, she would not have liked him.
Ding Ning patiently listened to her talk about her great achievements in those years. He did not know whether to laugh or cry and secretly cursed, "Does it have anything to do with me who pursued whom?" However, this was his future mother-in-law. He did not dare to show the slightest impatience. He had to go along with her like a supporting character, which made Qiao Xinyu beam with joy. She kept praising Ding Ning for being a sensible and good boy.
"Okay, okay, it's so late. Don't waste time. Hurry up and talk about the business."
Governor Du, who was next to them, could not bear to listen anymore and interrupted his wife's chattering with a bitter face.
The version she said was too unreliable and completely distorted the truth. She even said that he shamelessly clung to her and knelt in front of her to beg, and she reluctantly agreed to marry him because she was softhearted. This really affected his glorious image.
"Oh, by the way, I've only talked about the past and almost forgot the business. Little Ding, come to our house for lunch tomorrow. I'll cook in person and let you have a taste of my cooking."
Only then did Qiao Xinyu remember the business and said without regard for others.
"Ah!"
Ding Ning opened his mouth wide in astonishment. As far as he knew, Li Boyang was going to visit him at noon tomorrow. Why did Governor Du and his wife ask him to go there?
"That's settled. I'll send you my home address later. Be sure to come."
Qiao Xinyu did not mean to explain to him. She hung up the phone after saying this in an indisputable manner. After a while, she sent him her home address.
Ding Ning smiled. He had been worried about how to make up a reason tomorrow at noon and happened to "visit" to make trouble. Unexpectedly, Governor Du and his wife took the initiative to come to him and solve this big problem for him.
However, what was their motive? Although Governor Du had said that he would invite him to have a meal at home to express his gratitude, he could not choose to do it on the day when his future son-in-law came to visit. This was too unreasonable.
Ding Ning was puzzled. Then he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. No matter what their motive was, as long as he had a legitimate reason to visit, he could carry out his sabotage plan.
He did not expect Du Mosheng to accept him, nor did he care whether she would hate him or not. However, a person like Li Boyang really did not deserve to give her happiness. He could not watch her jump into the fire pit.
But at this moment, Governor Du was helplessly looking at his complacent wife and said with a frown, "Is it appropriate to do this? If Mosheng knows it, she will definitely be unhappy. "
"What's wrong with that? In any case, I don't like that Li Boyang. He's just the son of a third-rate family in Yuezhou. He's delusional enough to climb up the tree and become a phoenix, marrying my precious daughter."
Qiao Xinyu proudly raised her head and said disdainfully.
"You, you were not so snobbish before. I think it doesn't matter who you are, as long as Mosheng likes you."
Governor Du's face darkened. Why did he feel that his wife was discouraging him?
He muttered in his heart, "What's wrong with a third-tier or fourth-tier small family? I'm still a poor peasant, but I still married you, the princess of the Qiao Family. "
"You don't understand. I'd rather Mosheng marry a poor peasant than marry a descendant of a small family." Qiao Xinyu's eyes sparkled with wisdom.
Qiao Xinyu's eyes sparkled with wisdom. "Children from the countryside have never seen the world. They are simple and not so cunning. But children from small families are different. They have seen a certain amount of the world and have ambitions for power. As the saying goes, a full bottle keeps quiet, but a half-empty bottle makes a splash. The more a child comes from a small family, the more utilitarian they are. Although Mo Sheng has been hiding her true identity from Li Boyang, Mo Sheng is too naive. No matter what, Li Boyang is a child from a small family. How could he rashly visit us without investigating Mo Sheng's true identity?"
Governor Du showed a thoughtful look. "Yes, if Li Boyang is really a peasant child who has never seen the world, it's fine. But he has a family. Even if he is from a third-tier or fourth-tier small family, he should pay attention to the family's social status. How could he come to visit us without investigating Mosheng's real identity?"
But this was just a guess, and he could not make an arbitrary conclusion. He asked curiously, "Even so, why did you call Ding Ning here?"
"This is called subduing the enemy without fighting. There is no harm if there is no comparison. Ding Ning can make Li Boyang feel ashamed of his inferiority, feel that he is not worthy of our baby daughter, and give up voluntarily."
Qiao Xinyu said with joy.
