Chapter 42 Soft and Hard Intersect

  The National Day holiday is coming to an end, Cao Zhiqing and his workers returned, one by one exhausted, their words full of complaints.

  Li Ke came to collect his and Yu Huahua's wages, wanting to take all the unpaid salaries at once.

  Cao Zhiqing naturally suspected and asked for the reason.

  Li Ke was holding back his anger and didn't mention anything about quitting, anyway he and Yu HuaHua hadn't signed a contract, so they could just leave whenever they wanted.

  Li Ke only said he was on his honeymoon and asked for money.

  "Cao Zhiqing: "Ahh, you're really something! Why didn't you say earlier that you wanted to go on a honeymoon? We could have gone together and had some fun!"

  Li Ke said stiffly: "I'm not going to have a wedding?"

  Cao Zhiqing knew he was in the wrong, but what he feared most was that Li Ke would bring up the wedding, as the chairman, he had no say in the matter at all.

  It was a pleasant surprise. Cao Zhiqing immediately paid the money and said, "Consider this as my little intention. If it were another teacher, I wouldn't have settled the account in advance."

  He's really shameless and brazen!

  "When are you coming back? You and Yu Huahua have both left, I need to find someone to cover the class. But we can't keep covering for you all the time, when are you coming back, so I can have a plan."

  Li Ke: "At most five days."

  "Alright, alright."

  Li Ke thought: Just you wait!

  Li Ke left, Cao Zhiqing was heartbroken! This money, if placed in the bank, would have earned interest! Although the total is less than 10,000, the interest can be imagined, but it also broke Cao Zhiqing's heart.

  Lust is the worst of all evils!

  Cao Zhiqing was still aching on this side, while on the other side, Guo Huihui, who had been resting at home, stepped out of the door again.

  This time out, Cao Zhiqing was considered to have been bothered enough.

  Guo Huihui was determined to drive him completely mad.

  Now I know, a moment of coolness has let Cao Zhiqing taste the most painful consequences.

  Guo Huihui, in front of everyone, held Cao Zhiqing's arm and chatted with a smile. Everything was arranged by her, including meals and accommodations, she had the final say.

  Director Ma doesn't count for anything.

  So, can't all teachers understand this?

  Guo Huihui has gone out, and that's it, talking more about it would be pointless.

  But Cao Zhiqing's face was completely lost. Fortunately, his skin was thicker than the city wall and he withstood it.

  As soon as Guo Huihui arrived, Cao Zhiqing's heart tightened again, his face tense, highly alert, and his body and mind completely shrunk.

  Guo Huihui didn't close the door, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she asked: "When are you going to give me half of the school's shares? I've been accompanying you to eat, sleep with you, accompany you on your honeymoon... do you really think I'm a prostitute?! Tell Cao Zhiqing that when I was with him, I was still a virgin!

  Cao Zhiqing hastily went to close the door.

  Ma Ming happened to be passing by and heard the door slam shut. He knew something was up, so he quietly approached the door and pressed his ear against it to listen.

  Guo Huihui is now in this state, let alone if they really get married in the future, how will their life be? Even when going out to play, Guo Huihui and Cao Zhiqing live in the same room, but he can't get hard.

  No choice, for six days outside, Cao Zhiqing relied solely on his mouth and hands. How miserable!

  "You're already half-buried in the ground, and I'm a lovely young girl like a flower! What do I want with you? In the future, you'll definitely die first, and how old will I be after you die? Do you want me to spend my days guarding your ashes? Go drink the northwest wind!" Guo Huihui was deliberately trying to embarrass Cao Zhiqing.

  Every method has been used, Cao Zhiqing also said that he would come back and transfer the property, but after Cao Zhiqing came back, not a single word was mentioned. Guo Huihui's gentle approach didn't work, so she took a tough stance.

  "Shh! Shh shh shh! Keep your voice down, I'm in the middle of something here! This requires procedure!" Cao Zhiqing said.

  "Guo Huihui: 'I'm only giving you two days! Either the school gives me half, or one million and that's it!'"

  Cao Zhiqing suddenly burst out: "I, Cao Zhiqing, have never been able to swallow other people's threats in my whole life! I won't give it to you, what can you do about it!"

  Upon hearing this, Guo Huihui was so angry that she couldn't say a word.

  Suddenly, Guo Huihui fainted and fell to the ground, Cao Zhiqing panicked.

  After a while, Cao Zhiqing continued to pour water and pinch people's acupuncture points, and Guo Huihui slowly woke up in a daze.

  "Are you a Cao by surname? Do you really think I have no way with you?" Guo Huihui woke up and continued to fight.

  "Hui Hui, don't force me! You know what's going on at school right now!"

  Guo Huihui: "I know, even if the school is not doing well, I will still make it work. As long as the school is mine, I will definitely make it successful and expand it! I'll give you half of the shares, just wait for a life of luxury. Such a good thing, Cao Zhiqing, what are you thinking?! I'll also marry you immediately and take care of you until old age. Cao Zhiqing, now that you're already separated from your wife and children, who else can you rely on to take care of you in your old age?"

  This remark really hit Cao Zhiqing's weak spot.

  Two sons, the elder son Cao Qiang is 38 years old and the younger son Cao Ao Yun is 34 years old. Both of them are close to their mother and do not have much affection for Cao Zhiqing. At that time, Cao Zhiqing was labeled as a rightist and both sons grew up with their mother when they were young, so Cao Zhiqing did not have much opportunity to show paternal love.

  Later, Cao Zhiqing returned and was also doting on his son, only giving him money to spend, but rarely communicating emotionally.

  Now the two sons have grown up, they are still good to their mother, but as for Cao Zhiqing, all they can say is that they want money. Now, both sons are eyeing Cao Zhiqing's property greedily, waiting for him to die so they can pounce on his assets like starving tigers.

  Cao Zhiqing is not a fool, he knows what his sons are thinking, in the future when he's old and relies on his sons, it's like relying on thin air.

  Guo Huihui's words really hit Cao Zhiqing's heart.

  Guo Huihui saw Cao Zhiqing's face change and his expression was different. He lowered his head and fell into deep thought, it seems there is hope now.

  Guo Huihui then came to Cao Zhiqing's side again, gently massaging his back while softly saying: "Old Cao, tell me, what I said earlier was reasonable, right? With those two sons of yours, if you have a serious illness or disaster in the future, they'll be asking for your funeral expenses! They can't wait for you to meet King Yama immediately!"

  "Alright, alright! You're going to curse me to death with all this fuss! Sigh!"

  Guo Huihui bent down and looked at Cao Zhiqing, putting her mouth close to his ear and whispered: "What's wrong? Have you figured it out?"

  Cao Zhiqing thought to himself, forget it, can't be bothered anymore!

  "Alright, Huihui, I can agree with you, but I have a small request." Cao Zhiqing finally relaxed his grip.

  "Go ahead, any request is fine. I can even lick that little bean sprout for you every day." Guo Huihui smiled with a single word - cheap.

  Cao Zhiqing said impatiently, "Forget it, that's enough. Huihui, as long as you promise me, before I die, you can't have any second thoughts, and absolutely cannot make me wear a green hat! Otherwise, once I find out, you'll be kicked out of the house!"

  "No problem."

  Cao Zhiqing: "Do you want to be a notary?"

  "Alright, no problem, I definitely won't betray you. I'm upright and not afraid of shadows being crooked. Whatever evidence is needed is fine!"

  Guo Huihui said so much just to cover up her previous hesitation and unrighteous heart.

  Cao Zhiqing then raised an even more serious requirement: "Huihui, that's the basic virtue of a woman, but it doesn't count as my requirement. My requirement is that you must give birth to a child for me, okay? Once we have a child, not only will I give you half of my property, but in the future, won't everything I own still be left to our child?"

  What he said is perfectly reasonable and also in line with ethics, rationality and human nature. The older one gets, the more they want their own flesh and blood. Since they can't expect to have grandchildren, then they might as well have another child themselves. Cao Zhiqing's request is not excessive.

  Guo Huihui smiled calmly, and with her right index finger, she lightly poked Cao Zhiqing's forehead, saying: "Alright, as long as you have the ability."

  Cao Zhiqing: "Nowadays, science and technology are not difficult for a child. I said that in the future, everything of mine will be left to our children. However, I want to declare that if we don't have children, then my inheritance will all go to my two current sons, and you can only get half of the shares of this school."

  What does this mean!

  Is it that I have served you until your death and nothing has been left for me?

  Guo Huihui's face changed instantly, and she looked at Cao Zhiqing.

  "Are you saying you don't have confidence that you can get pregnant with my child? If it doesn't work naturally, we can seek help from artificial means. With today's technology, is this still a big deal?"

  After a pause, Cao Zhiqing looked at Guo Huihui and asked: "Don't you want to have a child with me?"

  Guo Huihui was forced into a desperate situation.

  For a moment, Guo Huihui didn't know how to respond.

  Cao Zhiqing continued, all of these need to be notarized, which is equivalent to a will. If I really don't have a child with Cao Zhiqing, the loss would be huge.

  ……

  Originally, Guo Huihui wanted to have a child. Only, she didn't think it would be with Cao Zhiqing.

  But now, Cao Zhiqing's conditions and demands have completely locked up and closed off Guo Huihui. As long as Guo Huihui obeys Cao Zhiqing, then her life will be ruined.

  But! The temptation of money!

  Guo Huihui's inner voice screamed: Let me refuse you - oh my money! My baby! I can't do it!

  Guo Huihui suddenly thought of Pan Jinlian...

  Suddenly, Cao Zhiqing seemed to have turned into Wu Dalang...

  Gradually, Guo Huihui had an idea in her mind...

  Alright, I'll grant your wish and give birth to the child. However, I'm afraid you might not make it until the time comes to see the kid - don't blame me then, huh, huh, huh...

  Guo Huihui threw her arms around Cao Zhiqing, sobbing and said: "Old Cao, dear, we must have a crystal of love! He will be the smartest, most lovely, most filial, strongest, bravest, and best treasure, our treasure!"

  Cao Zhiqing looked at Guo Huihui in front of him and slowly said: "You really agreed?"

  Guo Huihui: "I'll agree to anything, as long as you sincerely marry me. Actually, I don't care about the money; I just want to see whether in your heart, I'm more important or the money is more important. They say that men treat money as their life, but I just want to see if you love me so deeply that you're willing to entrust your life to me."

  Cao Zhiqing is not a twenty-year-old young man, nor is he an ignorant youth. These years have not been lived in vain. Guo Huihui's reaction and behavior with such a huge contrast, Cao Zhiqing can see it clearly, but sometimes, especially for men in women's arms, they often force themselves to forget all the dangers that may be approaching.

  This is where the phrase "dying under a pomegranate skirt, being a ghost with charm" comes from.

  Cao Zhiqing is not unable to see through it, nor is he unable to understand it. He simply has the heart but lacks the strength.

  Completely, Cao Zhiqing has completely followed his feelings. Let's go with the flow.

  At this moment, what notarization, what will, Cao Zhiqing didn't even plan to actually practice it. What he really wanted was just one thing - an attitude.

  Sometimes men really need to be treated like children and coaxed.

  The tactics women use when dealing with men are correct.

  But remember, sisters.

  Being soft and being hard are both good, but if neither is effective, don't think that there's nothing else you can do.

  Wrong! After making a big fuss about him, immediately come back to kill him with a counterattack. At this time, ninety-nine percent of the work will be done.

  Guo Huihui was greatly enlightened by this experience.
