Chapter 753: Chapter 0753: You Have to Pay!

"Ms. Li is coming over, so of course, we need to welcome her properly. What kind of look is wearing pajamas?"

Li Xiaoli applied lipstick while responding seriously.

"Exactly, we’re on holiday now; we don’t need to mind Ms. Li’s teacher status. We can’t let her outshine us."

Liu Mengting also gazed into the mirror, speaking with a fighting spirit.

"This trench coat button is too tight, never mind, I won’t button it."

Xia Wei’er, after adjusting her outfit, muttered in frustration.

"What... kind of thinking do women have?"

Tang Ming looked at the three women, completely baffled, unable to grasp why they were so nervous about Li Wenxuan coming over.

A little while later, Li Wenxuan drove up in a red BMW to the Liu Family’s yard. As soon as she got out, the three women greeted her warmly.

"Ms. Li, how come you’re here?"

Li Xiaoli greeted her enthusiastically.

"I’m here to find Tang Ming."

Seeing the three women, Li Wenxuan was completely taken aback and said in astonishment, "You three are living together with Tang Ming? What is the relationship here?"

The three school beauties living with Tang Ming? This was big news! Who would have thought that Tang Ming was so fortunate?

"Tang Ming is just our roommate, and Wei’er is here to hang out with me and Meng Meng."

Li Xiaoli explained while smiling.

"Ms. Li, please come inside. Tang Ming is inside munching on sunflower seeds," Liu Mengting said with a smile as she invited her in.

"Okay."

Li Wenxuan nodded and felt a bit annoyed inside, knowing she arrived and Tang Ming hadn’t come out to greet her, which was impolite.

Upon entering the living room and seeing Tang Ming lounging with his legs crossed on the coffee table eating sunflower seeds, Li Wenxuan’s irritation grew.

"Ha! What wind blew Ms. Li this way?"

Tang Ming looked at Li Wenxuan with a grin, "It couldn’t be because our final English grades were dismal, and you’ve come to personally tutor us, could it?"

"Hmph, do your grades even need tutoring?"

Li Wenxuan gave Tang Ming a glance, then looked at the three women somewhat embarrassed.

The three women exchanged looks, all showing a suggestive expression.

"Ah, Wei’er, you just said your underwear button was a bit tight. Let me and Meng Meng go upstairs to help you check."

Li Xiaoli pulled Wei’er towards the stairs.

"It’s not the underwear button; it’s the trench coat button that’s a bit tight."

Xia Wei’er quickly clarified.

"It’s all the same; we still need to go upstairs to check anyway."

Liu Mengting pushed Xia Wei’er upstairs, wanting to give Li Wenxuan and Tang Ming some alone time, lest Li Wenxuan took Tang Ming out, causing trouble.

Seeing how considerate the three women were, Li Wenxuan was grateful and then sat on the couch, looking at Tang Ming helplessly, "I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend again."

"Again?"

Tang Ming’s expression became serious as he warned, "Last time it was because I acted as your shield, and I almost got killed by that Jack. Acting as your shield is too risky; I wouldn’t go for it."

In the bedroom upstairs, Li Xiaoli and the other two girls crowded together, intently staring at the phone screen that showed the feed of Tang Ming and Li Wenxuan and allowed them to hear their conversation.

"You guys are too high level, even having surveillance cameras and all."

Xia Wei’er remarked curiously.

"This isn’t a surveillance device, it’s live video on a phone."

Li Xiaoli smiled proudly and said, "Previously, Meng Meng and I discovered Tang Ming’s cultivation restoration through this...mmm mmm mmm."

Li Xiaoli hadn’t finished speaking when Liu Mengting covered her mouth, "Don’t talk nonsense."

Liu Mengting thought only she and Li Xiaoli knew about Tang Ming’s cultivation restoration and worried that Li Xiaoli would spill the beans to Xia Wei’er.

"I’m not talking nonsense, we discovered Tang Ming’s cultivation restoration using this."

Li Xiaoli pulled the hand away, speaking discontentedly.

"Oh."

Xia Wei’er responded nonchalantly; she was actually the first to know about Tang Ming’s restoration.

"Wei’er, why aren’t you surprised at all?"

Liu Mengting looked at Xia Wei’er with confusion, asking uncertainly, "Did you already know about Tang Ming’s cultivation recovery?"

"Yes, I’ve known for quite a while."

Xia Wei’er nodded, unable to resist showing off at this moment.

Liu Mengting dropped her jaw, then shouted with dissatisfaction, "That darn jerk, he told you early on but kept it hidden from us. If not for Xiao Li being clever, we might still be in the dark."

"Exactly, Tang Ming is really biased."

Li Xiaoli caught on, immediately becoming angered.

"Quick, watch the video; it seems like they’re talking about doing boyfriend things."

Xia Wei’er hurriedly pointed at the phone, successfully changing the topic; however, she felt a bit smug, as Tang Ming treated her quite differently.

"Don’t worry, there’s no danger this time. My family is organizing a matchmaking party, and I had no choice but to ask you to cover for me."

Li Wenxuan looked helplessly at Tang Ming, handing him an invitation from her purse. Although the Li family’s real motive was to network with various forces of West Sea Province, she thought her family was seriously looking for a spouse for her, so she was very anxious.

"A matchmaking party?"

Tang Ming glanced at the invitation, surprised and said, "I think I received an invitation like this."

No sooner had he spoken than Tang Ming hurriedly got up to pull out a similar invitation from under the sofa.

"Hey, why are you sitting on an invitation with my picture printed on it?"

Seeing Tang Ming’s action, Li Wenxuan’s expression turned sour.

"Sorry, sorry, the picture on the cover was so sexy, I thought it was one of those adult cards someone threw into our mailbox, so..."

Tang Ming gave an awkward smile, quickly changing the subject: "So it really is an invitation to the party. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have noticed. Songhai City’s Blue Sky Hotel...which city is Songhai City?"

"Are you from West Sea? Songhai is the capital of West Sea Province."

Li Wenxuan looked at Tang Ming with a helpless face, explaining, "The Li family is officially settling domestically now. My older brother just came over and held such a party which caught me off guard. The party is tomorrow, and now only you can help me."

"Hehe, looks like I’m really important now. Then, we must discuss the issue of my compensation."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ming chuckled, actually eager to visit the provincial city; anything there would be more interesting than staying at home cracking seeds.

Upon hearing this, Li Wenxuan’s expression darkened; how could Tang Ming think of nothing but money, completely fixated on it.

"How much money do you want?"

Li Wenxuan gritted her teeth as she asked Tang Ming.

"You’re aware of my current worth, aren’t you? At least this number."

Tang Ming held up a single finger.
