The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "I've also heard about Director You's situation. As the saying goes, a crafty rabbit has three burrows, eggs should not all be placed in one basket. Director You might consider investing in my little shop here. I believe my shop can certainly develop."

You Yaozong instantly understood he was being invited to invest.

But he was just a deputy director of a hospital, and a newly appointed one at that. Where would he get the money to invest?

Perplexed, You Yaozong said, "Manager Zhou, to be frank, I've been through some issues that have left me without any funds to invest. And furthermore, we've only just met. Isn't it somewhat...?"

What You Yaozong meant was that this matter needed to be postponed.

Yet Zhou Sheng laughed and said, "Director You worries too much. I didn't mean for you to invest money."

"Ah? If not money, then what else could I possibly invest in?" You Yaozong asked, puzzled.

Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "Of course, connections! Director You, you've risen in rank and are now able to meet more and more people, particularly those of high status. When they come to the hospital, who wouldn't have to see you? Over time, you'll likely become quite familiar with them, won't you?"

You Yaozong immediately understood and asked, "So what you mean is, you want me to refer people to buy things from your store and then I'll take a commission?"

"Exactly!"

Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "It's a simple matter. You only need to mention my shop to those people. Older folks can be a bit superstitious, and my shop specializes in selling jade artifacts like Guanyin and Buddha Tathagata for peace and safety. Whenever you refer someone to our shop, I'll have my cousin note it down, and you'll get a ten percent cut from each of their purchases here."

At that moment, a teenager who seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen years old walked out of the room, avoiding You Yaozong's gaze, seemingly shy.

Zhou Sheng introduced him, "Director You, this is my cousin, Zhou Haoran. He's just graduated from high school and doesn't have much to do, so I've asked him to give me a hand here. If you don't mind, he can follow you and help you keep track of these referrals."

You Yaozong glanced at the young boy. Zhou Haoran's eyes appeared innocent, not at all cunning. You Yaozong suddenly laughed at himself mockingly. After having been through a great upheaval, he had grown suspicious of everyone, to the point where he was even wary of a teenager.

He smiled and said, "Let's hold off on this for now. I want to take a closer look before I decide. I'll get back to you as soon as possible."

"Haha! Sure! This is an important matter after all, and we shouldn't rush it. Haoran, show Director You the jade artifacts in our store," Zhou Sheng said with a big laugh.

Zhou Haoran nodded and began showing You Yaozong around the shop's jade artifacts, introducing them to him as a way to showcase the store's capabilities.

Zhou Sheng said to Wang Xiangjiao with the utmost gentlemanly demeanor, "Madam Wang, this way please. Over here, we have jade jewelry for ladies."

Wang Xiangjiao gave him a flirtatious smile and followed him to a different display case.

Wang Xiangjiao whispered with a laugh, "You're really something, aren't you? Look at how you've played my buffoon of a husband."

Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "Isn't that so? Aren't I better than your husband?"

As he spoke, he boldly groped Wang Xiangjiao's buttocks.

Although Wang Xiangjiao was no longer young, and her looks had aged somewhat, she still maintained a good figure, which Zhou Sheng found very satisfying in addition to their cooperation.

"You're so naughty! There are so many people here! It would be so embarrassing if someone saw!" Wang Xiangjiao cooed with feigned anger, shooting Zhou Sheng a glare that held no real annoyance but seemed more like a coy wink.

Zhou Sheng chuckled, "What's there to fear? Your husband can put up with you cuckolding him; what can't he endure?"

Meanwhile, on the other side.

You Yaozong didn't comment on Zhou Sheng showing Wang Xiangjiao the jade artifacts, since what he was looking at here was indeed for males, and this was a tactic some retailers used.

If a man kept hanging around, the salespeople wouldn't be able to persuade the woman to spend big money due to the man's interruptions.

Zhou Haoran continued to introduce items to him, helping him analyze which ones would look better when worn. Although he was a bit stammering at first, his speech became more fluid as he went on.

You Yaozong understood that, in this way, Zhou Haoran was also trying to improve his own skills. He asked, "Which university are you planning to apply to?"

Zhou Haoran quickly replied, "Director You, I'm thinking of applying to Huadu University's Broadcasting and Hosting program."

"The broadcasting department, that's great. Like your cousin, you're well-built and quite good-looking. Being a host or something similar is most fitting..." You Yaozong was saying when he turned his head, glanced back, and suddenly saw Wang Xiangjiao's body jerk as if she'd been shocked by electricity. He also thought he saw someone touch her bottom a moment before. A sudden shiver ran through You Yaozong's heart.

"Xiangjiao, what happened?" You Yaozong immediately went over and asked with concern.
