Li Xiao Yue's original plan to make men pay their "public grain" and thus achieve mental purity was likely to succeed.
After all, for ordinary men, even Xu Feng Nian of Beiliang, when encountering a powerful woman, would have to retreat and support himself against a wall.
But the problem was, Na Jun was not an ordinary man, he was a man with the "腰力" attribute.
His Zhongshan Jingwang attribute dictated that he would have at least 100 children in the future, and his wives and concubines would number at least dozens.
For Na Jun, if there were dozens of Li Xiao Yue, it might be possible for him to pay all his "public grain."
Just one Li Xiao Yue, forget it.
The presumptuous Li Xiao Yue regretted it deeply.
Not only did she fail to make Na Jun behave himself, but she also affected her own work.
Early the next morning, Li Xiao Yue, dragging her weary body, called Na Jun's brother, Na Wei.
Na Wei's steady voice came from the other end of the line.
“Xiao Yue, what’s wrong?
Your voice sounds a bit weak.”
Li Xiao Yue coughed lightly.
“Brother Na Wei, I might have a cold, I want to take a day off today to rest.”
Na Wei was silent on the other end of the line for a moment. He understood that this was probably not just because of a cold.
He had noticed that Li Xiao Yue had been looking exhausted at work these past few days.
He had heard Li Xiao Yue complain to her best friend, blaming his younger brother, Na Jun, for almost every night being a late-night affair.
Na Wei sighed, “Xiao Yue, you take good care of yourself.
Don't worry about work, I'll take care of it.”
After hanging up the phone, Na Wei turned to his wife, Shen Lin, who was busy in the kitchen, and couldn't help but frown.
Last night, Shen Lin had been defending Na Jun, and they had had a disagreement over it.
He walked to the kitchen door and looked at Shen Lin's busy back.
“Shen Lin, that kid Na Jun has been going too far lately,
Xiao Yue is very tired every day, and her work spirit is low,
Should I talk to Na Jun about it?
But it feels a bit awkward.”
Shen Lin stopped what she was doing, turned around and looked at Na Wei.
“I believe he truly likes Xiao Yue,
It's just that sometimes he's overly enthusiastic,
Young people, you can understand.”
Shen Lin almost wanted to say, you were the same when you were young, Na Wei, but it seemed that you were still far behind Na Jun.
Na Wei shook his head helplessly.
“Hopefully so, I hope he can mature a bit, learn to control himself, and stop making Xiao Yue tired, otherwise our marketing department really won't have any talents left.”
Shen Lin couldn’t help but say to Na Wei,
“It's their own private business, let's not get involved.
The most important thing is, you should listen to Na Jun's advice,
Stop harboring any fantasies about your boss's wife...”
At the mention of this, Na Wei’s face turned a little bad.
…
After Na Jun, Li Xiao Yue and the others left their house last night, Shen Lin turned to Na Wei beside her and said seriously.
“Husband, I think what Na Jun said today makes sense.”
Na Wei looked up at Shen Lin, his brows slightly furrowed.
“Oh? What do you think he got right?”
Shen Lin organized her thoughts.
“Think about it, after Wang Rui Zhi becomes a monk, Qin Ling Ling will surely direct her dissatisfaction and anger at you.
After all, you are Wang Rui Zhi’s most capable assistant, she will definitely think that you incited her husband to become a monk, which caused the company to fail to go public.
So, I think Na Jun's suggestion that you prepare beforehand and get your stock options and compensation is very wise.”
Na Wei felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Shen Lin's words.
He admitted that Na Jun's words had some logic, but Shen Lin's praise for Na Jun made him feel a little bit annoyed.
He couldn’t help but retort coldly.
“Do you think Na Jun is better than me, that I should listen to him for everything?”
Shen Lin didn’t expect Na Wei to react this way, she quickly apologized.
“That's not what I meant, I didn’t say he was better than you.
I just think Na Jun’s analysis today was very calm and logical, he has insight, he can see things that we can’t see.”
However, Na Wei recalled how Na Jun had kept stealing glances at Shen Lin, and he felt even more uncomfortable.
Na Wei didn’t know that Na Jun was filled with deep sympathy and regret for Shen Lin's fate in the original timeline.
He misunderstood that Na Jun liked his wife, Shen Lin,
Cases of younger brothers liking their sisters-in-law were not uncommon,
Especially since his wife, Shen Lin, had almond-shaped eyes and a peach blossom complexion, she was exquisite, beautiful, and charming.
Therefore, Na Wei said coldly.
“That kid Na Jun has been acting strange recently,
The way I saw him looking at you just now was not right.
You are his sister-in-law, but he has developed bad intentions toward you,
I don’t know when this kid became like this…”
Shen Lin was stunned when she heard this.
She hadn’t expected Na Wei to think this way, she quickly defended.
“You're mistaken, Na Jun is a good kid, how could he have improper thoughts about me.
When our eyes met, I found that he was looking at me with pity and sympathy, there was nothing else in his eyes.
He could calculate that if we continued on our current path, our lives could end up that way, where I would have to become a nanny and serve others.
I really don’t understand how you could think like that?”
However, Na Wei refused to listen to Shen Lin's explanation.
He had already convinced himself that his younger brother, Na Jun, had intentions towards Shen Lin, so he was even more resistant to Na Jun's suggestions.
He resolutely said: “You don’t need to say any more.
I've been in this company for 15 years, I naturally have my own plans.
I won’t listen to Na Jun, and I won’t sell my stock options cheaply.
Tomorrow I’ll just apologize to the boss's wife.”
Shen Lin looked at her husband’s stubborn expression, knowing that it would be pointless to argue further.
She sighed, deciding to contact Na Jun tomorrow and see if he could persuade Na Wei.
In her opinion, Na Jun was a man with foresight, and his suggestions were worth considering.
After Na Wei left for work, Shen Lin picked up the phone and dialed her brother-in-law Na Jun's number.
Na Jun's clear voice came from the other end of the line.
“Sister-in-law, good morning, is there anything you need?”
Shen Lin sighed softly and expressed her concerns.
“Na Jun, your brother... he still wants to curry favor with Qin Ling Ling, no matter how I persuade him, he won’t listen.
What do you think we should do now?”
Na Jun was silent on the other end of the line for a moment,
He had already guessed the outcome.
He asked softly, “Sister-in-law, how did you communicate with your brother?
Why is he so stubborn?”
Shen Lin then recounted the conversation between her and her husband last night in detail to Na Jun.
After listening, Na Jun was speechless.
Just because Shen Lin admired him, his brother, Na Wei, was actually jealous, which made him feel ridiculous.
He thought for a moment, feeling that some things needed to be clarified.
Although he was a younger brother, talking to his sister-in-law like this could be a bit ambiguous, but he decided to speak up.
“Sister-in-law, when I looked at you yesterday, it was definitely not because I was attracted to your beauty, but because I really felt sorry for you.
I can calculate that if my brother continues to be his current self, you will suffer a lot with him in the future, you will work as a nanny, you will work with preserved food, all sorts of hardships…
When I was looking at you then, I just felt that a beautiful woman like you shouldn’t have to endure such hardships, I felt sorry for you.”
