Chapter 1127: Chapter 487: The Wicked Meet Their Match

Just now, Minmin was really almost in tears from anger, unable to resist saying something.

But she was fiercely glared back by Qu Jing.

Only when Zhou Yuwen entered did Qu Jing quietly warn Minmin: “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do? Dressing provocatively, even specially making honey water?”

“Hmph, Tiantian may not know what you’re thinking, but I do!”

“I’m warning you, behave yourself. If you try something like this again, I’ll kick you out!”

Qu Jing glared at Minmin fiercely, then told her to go and make dinner!

At that moment, Minmin felt extremely wronged.

After Qu Jing turned and left, two lines of tears couldn’t help but flow from Minmin’s eyes. She wiped her tears, puzzled as to why Qu Jing was so harsh on her.

Why did she treat her like a servant?

What difference was there between them?

Feeling wronged, Minmin cast a resentful glance at Qu Jing’s back as she returned to the bedroom.

She vowed to climb above Qu Jing.

By the time Tao Tian got home, the sky was already dark. Seeing Zhou Yuwen at home, she was a bit surprised and took the opportunity to explain why Minmin was there.

Zhou Yuwen didn’t mind, saying it’s up to her to decide.

“You three are housemates anyway, nothing wrong with living together.”

For Zhou Yuwen, these matters were insignificant, and from his perspective, Minmin seemed fairly industrious. At least the table full of food was made by her, and it tasted alright to him.

With Zhou Yuwen’s remark, Tao Tian felt warm inside, distinctly sensing Zhou Yuwen’s favoritism towards her compared to the others.

At dinner, four people sat at the table, Zhou Yuwen in the main seat, with the three girls seated around.

The topic of conversation started with Minmin’s resignation.

Qu Jing said she was fired, viewing the receptionist job as worthless.

Minmin didn’t oppose this view.

She cautiously looked at Zhou Yuwen, asking him, “Zhou, Zhou Yuwen, does your company still need people… I’ve been unemployed for quite some time.”

Before Zhou Yuwen could reply, Qu Jing interjected, “You think getting into Zhou Yuwen’s company is that easy? We only hire graduates from prestigious universities. With your qualifications, you’d be filtered out in the first round.”

Minmin felt speechless, thinking, aren’t you of the same educational background as me? If not for leaning on Zhou Yuwen, could you be in management?

She placed all her hopes in Tao Tian.

Tao Tian thought about it, saying the receptionist had just left recently.

There’s a need to hire someone anyway.

“Hubby, what do you think?” Tao Tian, in front of Minmin, directly called Zhou Yuwen her husband.

Zhou Yuwen thought it over briefly and felt it was feasible, just about to agree.

But Qu Jing hurriedly said, “The receptionist position was already decided. Han Qian is coming in for that role. She interned before graduation at our company and is currently unemployed. I told her a while back.”

Zhou Yuwen glanced at Qu Jing, then to Tao Tian, saying, oh, since it’s promised, there’s no choice.

“Otherwise, find another position for her.” These things were trivial to Zhou Yuwen, and hearing this made Minmin naturally happy.

Unfortunately, Qu Jing continuously guarded against Minmin as if she were a thief.

Qu Jing said, isn’t staying home good enough?

“You just want an income, right? I see you cook well, so why not cook at home for us regularly? We can pay you two thousand a month.” Qu Jing said with a superior attitude.

Minmin felt uncomfortable hearing that, “Two thousand?”

“Yes, isn’t that enough? You eat and stay in our house normally; this saves you significant costs compared to renting outside, doesn’t it?” Qu Jing said matter-of-factly.

“Tiantian, what do you say?” Without waiting for Minmin’s agreement, she asked Tao Tian beside her.

Tao Tian looked towards Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen, taking small bites of food, said, “Minmin senior cooks quite well, but two thousand feels a bit low, doesn’t it? Minmin, after all, is a college graduate; social insurance should at least be included.”

Qu Jing immediately agreed, saying, no problem, we can list her under the company for social insurance.

Zhou Yuwen nodded, saying they could discuss it among themselves.

“What do you think, Minmin senior?” Zhou Yuwen sought Minmin’s opinion further.

At this moment, Minmin didn’t know how to respond, hesitatingly saying, “Uh, I’ll think about it.”

“What’s there to consider? A job like this is hard to find, even with a lantern.” Qu Jing snorted in response.

Minmin said nothing.

The topic at the dinner table ended abruptly; they talked no further, each eating silently.

After finishing his meal, Zhou Yuwen went to the living room to watch TV for a while.

After eating, Minmin quickly approached Zhou Yuwen.

She simply watched TV, while Qu Jing looped her arm around Zhou Yuwen and said things, giggling.

Zhou Yuwen rarely understood the girls’ train of thought, but he too would chuckle along.

Like this, after dinner, with Qu Jing leaning on his arm, one slender long leg resting on his thigh, Zhou Yuwen found it enjoyable.

Just watching TV for a while.

A while later, Tao Tian also came over after finishing her meal.

Actually, Minmin wanted to join them too, but Qu Jing noticed her and directly asked, “You’re coming over just like that?”

Minmin was puzzled, asking why?

Qu Jing asked with interest, “Are the dishes left for us to wash?”

That question hit Minmin hard, making her hate Qu Jing so much at that moment, wishing she could slam the door and leave, cursing Qu Jing out, asking who she thought she was.

But realizing it was already eight o’clock at night…

Minmin truly had nowhere to stay, hesitating before suppressing her humiliation and saying, “I’ll go wash…”

Seeing Minmin leave, Qu Jing took the stance of a victor.

Seeing this, Tao Tian looked at Qu Jing with some blame and said, “You’re being a bit too much.”

“Am I? I’ve acted like this, and she can still bear it. Isn’t it her own fault?” Minmin hummed in response.

Tao Tian said, she’s still our housemate.

“Why do you have such animosity towards her?”

Qu Jing said Tao Tian didn’t understand.

“Let me tell you, the reason she stayed is to seduce Zhou Yuwen when we’re not around. You think she genuinely lacks a place to stay?” Qu Jing scoffed coldly.

“When I got off work earlier, do you know what I saw?”

Qu Jing asked Tao Tian, who didn’t answer.

Qu Jing then explained to Tao Tian that she saw Minmin wearing a mini skirt, flaunting herself in front of Zhou Yuwen.

“She’s trying to seduce Zhou Yuwen!”

Qu Jing stated confidently, Tao Tian looked towards Zhou Yuwen.

But Zhou Yuwen continued flipping through TV channels with the remote, not engaging in their conversation.

Seeing this, Tao Tian sighed and said, “I’ll go check on her.”
