The Magnificent Son-in-law

Since it was decided to take action in three days, the procurement of equipment naturally became an essential part.

There's an old saying that goes, to do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools, which speaks to this principle.

In this aspect, Xiao Feng handed it over to Jiu Ye, leaving it to him to come up with a list.

Even though Jiu Ye's various performances in the past seemed unreliable, among a group of dwarfs, he was still like a general; having "gone underground" dozens of times, he at least knew what could be useful and what needed to be prepared.

As soon as she got the list, the little girl volunteered to go shopping, even giving herself the title of "chief procurement officer."

Xiao Feng was a bit amused by this but still handed over the procurement work to the little girl because, in terms of shopping, girls do have a lot of advantages over boys.

For example, you can see in the market that most people bargaining with sellers are women, while men are rare.

And women often check the quality when they buy things, which is more meticulous than men.

Just then, Zhen Jinghan walked into the courtyard and greeted Xiao Feng, "So you guys are together."

Xiao Feng nodded, "The reason I didn't show up last time was because Old Zhao was embarrassed to meet you. He's always been a shy guy, you have to understand."

Today, Zhen Jinghan was dressed differently from her usual mature style. Her coat was a light blue trench coat paired with jeans, making it hard for anyone to tell that she had been married twice.

Hearing Xiao Feng's explanation, although Zhen Jinghan found it a bit strange, she nodded to show her understanding.

"So why did you ask me to come over today?" Zhen Jinghan asked.

Xiao Feng smiled, "It wasn't me who wanted to see you, someone else wanted to."

Saying this, he raised his eyebrows, his eyes seemed to say: you know.

Zhen Jinghan blushed instantly, "Why does he want to see me?"

"It's nothing serious, he just wants you to help him with some drug research work," Xiao Feng said casually.

"But I don't understand anything about that."

"It's okay if you don't understand, just help hand him things, be an assistant. To put it bluntly, it's just an excuse, Old Zhao has an ulterior motive."

After speaking, Xiao Feng shouted toward Zhao Guo'an's room, "Old Zhao, come out and meet the guest."

Zhen Jinghan was stunned. Why did this sound so familiar?

It was like she was a customer visiting a brothel in a TV drama, and the madam would shout upstairs: Ladies, the gentleman is here, come out and meet the guest.

Before long, a displeased voice came from the room, "What do you mean by meet the guest, are you taking me for... damn!"

The damn was clearly because he saw Zhen Jinghan.

Xiao Feng gave a teasing smile, "Being so impatient will scare the girl, can't you be more civilized?"

Zhao Guo'an pulled Xiao Feng into the room, gritting his teeth, "You actually brought her here?"

"What could I do, your progress is like a turtle's crawl, without some pressure, you have no motivation," Xiao Feng shrugged, indicating that he was helpless.

Zhao Guo'an was even more agitated, "You call this giving me pressure? You're pushing me to the brink!"

"Anyway, she's here now. If you want to drive her away, be my guest," Xiao Feng said indifferently.

"I..." Zhao Guo'an was at a loss for words, he didn't even dare to turn against Zhen Jinghan, let alone drive her away.

If this made her bear a grudge against him, could he still have a good life in the future?

All morning, Zhao Guo'an hurriedly rushed progress, like a firecracker tied to a cow's tail, not having a moment of rest.

Zhen Jinghan couldn't bear to watch, "You're too tired walking around like this. Just tell me what you need, and I'll get it for you."

"No need, no need, you just sit," Zhao Guo'an hurriedly declined.

"Then... let me make you a cup of tea," Zhen Jinghan said, stepping out of the room to find tea leaves and utensils.

Xiao Feng, sunbathing in the courtyard, saw Zhen Jinghan come out and smiled, "How's it going, any progress?"

Zhen Jinghan pursed her lips, uncertain, "He ignored me, just buried himself in his work, but... seeing him serious like that, it seems pretty good."

Xiao Feng consoled, "Don't rush, take it one step at a time. At least it's much better than him dodging you all the time before."

"That's true," Zhen Jinghan nodded in agreement, "Thanks for helping us match up, but now I'm also a bit conflicted."

"Conflicted?" Xiao Feng was puzzled, "Conflicted about what?"

"You might not know about my past," Zhen Jinghan sighed, then as if making a huge decision, said, "I've been married, and not just once."

However, after she said this, the expected scene of Xiao Feng's face drastically changing didn't happen.

Zhen Jinghan asked strangely, "You're not surprised at all?"

"What's there to be surprised about," Xiao Feng said in a perfectly normal tone, "In this day and age, as long as both parties are willing, what's wrong with getting married?

Actually, Old Zhao has already told me about your situation, you don't need to have any psychological burden. They say your friends will be somewhat unlucky, but look at me, I'm just fin...

At this point, there was a "crack" sound.

One leg of the Master's Chair under Xiao Feng broke...

What the...!

For a moment, Xiao Feng couldn't help but wonder.

Could it be that the conclusion he came to before was wrong, and it wasn't just having bad intentions towards Zhen Jinghan that would bring bad luck?

Quickly standing up before falling, seeing Zhen Jinghan's embarrassed face, Xiao Feng comforted her, "Don't overthink it, I'm an exception, but look at Mu Shihan and them, aren't they all fine?

And most importantly, Old Zhao clearly knows about your past but is still willing to be with you, what does that say?"

"What does it say?" Zhen Jinghan asked knowingly.

"It obviously says he doesn't mind," Xiao Feng said seriously, "Honestly, with Old Zhao's personality, I'm really afraid that if he stays shy, he'll be single for life.'

Zhen Jinghan was moved, "Zhao Guo'an is really lucky to have a friend like you who cares about him."

Inside, Zhao Guo'an, who heard their conversation, wished he could drag Zhen Jinghan over and point at her nose to ask: Are you blind?

Clearly having a friend like him is what brought me bad luck for eight lifetimes, okay?

Lucky?

What kind of crap luck!

The more Zhao Guo'an thought about it, the more upset he got. He felt he couldn't let Xiao Feng keep messing with him, he needed to get back at him, find an opportunity to have a good talk with Su Yuzhuo.

And from this moment on, these toxic friends were destined to continue down the road of mutual destruction.
