142: Chapter 142: Making Trouble?

I Fear Nothing!

142: Chapter 142: Making Trouble?

I Fear Nothing!

His gaze was sharp, his tone flippant.

Mu En clearly had a hidden message in his words, aware that Wu Jie’s big disaster was imminent.

But…

“How long can I be happy?

Of course, I’m happy every day!

Marrying such a beautiful and capable wife, I wake up laughing even in my dreams,” Wu Jie said with his arms around Tang Xiao’s waist, laughing heartily.

Mu En’s lips curled into a smug smile as he scoffed, “Today is your big joyous day, so bask in your arrogance as much as you like!”

“After all, with President Tang backing you up, I believe the Meng Family in Huhai won’t lay a finger on you.”

With a cold laugh, Mu En stepped toward the great hall.

“Who invited you?” Tang Xiao suddenly asked with a cold voice.

“Nobody invited me!

But…

does President Tang want to say something?

You don’t welcome me, do you?”

Mu En’s lips held a teasing smile, eagerly anticipating Tang Xiao’s outburst.

“If you’re here to offer congratulations, I welcome you.

But if you’re here to mock and sneer, then please leave!”

After all, it was her engagement party, and Tang Xiao held back her fiery temper.

If it had been any other day, she would have dismissed Mu En with a stern ‘scram’ long ago.

“Strange!

Where have I mocked and sneered?

I’m just speaking the honest truth!”

Mu En, pointing at Wu Jie with a hand, said with a sheepish laugh:

“Thanks to your care, Dou Cheng was sent to prison, and Meng Changxin, who was reported by him, has also been detained.”

“So, I’ve heard that Meng Changxin’s son, Meng Sihua, personally arranged for a group of experts to come and thank you in person.”

Glancing at his Vacheron Constantin watch, Mu En said with a cold laugh, “Judging by the time, they should be arriving about now.”

“Well, you can wait here slowly for them; I’m going inside!”

Mu En flashed an awkward smile and was about to leave.

“Since you’re envious and jealous, Jie, you should eat more and turn that frustration into strength!” Wu Jie ‘kindly’ advised.

Mu En turned back with a smile, “Of course!

I’ll definitely eat my fill of the free feast!”

Tang Xiao narrowed her eyes, seething with anger.

Wu Jie immediately consoled her, “Don’t get angry.

If you encounter a mad dog, you dodge if you can and put it down if you can’t.”

Tang Xiao huffed heavily, her gaze shifting to the elevator.

“I want to see if Meng Sihua really has the courage of a bear and the gall of a leopard to cause trouble at my engagement party!”

Wu Jie’s brows furrowed slightly.

Something wasn’t right!

If Meng Sihua was indeed about to arrive, he’d surely be ‘eager for revenge.’

But why…

was there no jubilation, no hatred?

Pulling out his phone, Wu Jie called Yu Hui.

“Is there any new development with Meng Changxin?”

Yu Hui replied, “Same as before!

The police have him in isolated custody; except for doctors and nurses, only lawyers are allowed access.”

“Also, I asked around, and the arrest warrant has been issued.

It seems he’s suspected of murder, and there seems to be substance to the allegation.”

Wu Jie asked further, “What about Meng Sihua?

Where is that guy now?”

“He’s at a hotel near the hospital, booked several suites, and rented a few cars.

There’s quite a few people with him, lawyers and bodyguards included.”

“Keep someone to secretly watch him; notify me immediately of any developments!” Wu Jie instructed, and just as he hung up the phone, he noticed Tang Xiao actually cracked a smile.

“I didn’t expect you to get into role so quickly, adapting to the position of the Director of the Supervision Department in no time!”

Wu Jie laughed, “Don’t you see how quickly I became your husband as well?”

Tang Xiao rolled her eyes, “Let’s go!

Don’t just stand here like a fool, while no guests have arrived.”

They entered the lively banquet hall.

Tang Xiao saw that Mu En was sitting together with her uncle and a group of people, all chatting and laughing.

Instantly, her face turned even sourer.

After the couple took their seats at the head table, Tang Pingde immediately said with a laugh:

“Now that you’re already registered as married, the wedding ceremony is just a formality.”

“For the two of you, the most important thing right now is to hurry up and have children; after all, you’re not getting any younger!”

Tang Xiao crisply and decisively replied, “Grandpa, don’t worry, we’ll go for a pre-pregnancy check-up right after the holiday and try our best to give you a grandson as soon as possible!”

“The wedding will be held here, but shouldn’t we also go to Jie’s hometown for a banquet?” Zhang Yu asked with a smile.

“Of course!”

Wu Jianguo looked at Tang Long with a smile, asking, “I think both the third and the twenty-ninth of next month are good dates, what do you think, in-law?”

Tang Long smiled and said, “I have no objections, it mainly depends on Xiao and the two of them.”

“No problem!

Let’s settle on those two days!”

Tang Xiao made the decision directly.

As for Wu Jie…

where could he get a word in?

Soon, the auspicious time was upon them.

The engagement ceremony was simplified, with no display of betrothal gifts or incense burning to worship ancestors.

It went straight to the parents giving speeches, announcing the wedding date, and the couple thanking the guests.

Following that, the banquet began.

Fine wines flowed, and toasts were made all around.

In the lively atmosphere, the parents and the couple naturally went from table to table to propose toasts.

Through this process, Wu Jie got to know quite a few people.

Also, having the system, he was instantly aware of who harbored feelings of envy, jealousy, and hate.

Take, for example, those young talents, handsome and with illustrious family backgrounds; they were naturally full of jealousy and hatred.

Among them, Mu En was the most petty.

During the toasting, he was all smiles and blessings, but towards Wu Jie, he even managed a triple hate.

Of course, being the target of jealousy and hatred, Wu Jie couldn’t be happier.

Interestingly, Tang Xiao’s uncle’s whole family offered various blessings, but Tang Xiao and her father just gave a faint smile.

After finishing the toasts and returning to the main guest table, it wasn’t long before Yu Hui called.

“Director Wu, Meng Sihua left the hotel with five people in two cars.

We don’t know where they’re headed, but my people are following them!”

Five people?

They sure think highly of me!

Wu Jie chuckled and said, “Keep following them!”

After hanging up, Tang Xiao whispered, “He’s really here?”

“There’s nothing to worry about, just eat up!” Wu Jie said as he picked up his wine glass and first proposed a toast to Grandpa.

Drinking, dining, and chatting, twenty minutes later, Yu Hui called again.

“Director Wu, there’s trouble; they drove into the hotel parking lot.

Could they be here to cause trouble at your engagement banquet?”

Wu Jie raised an eyebrow and scanned his surroundings.

“Cause what trouble?

The guests are almost all gone.

Alright, tell your people to pull out; I’ll handle what comes next!”

After ending the call, Wu Jie calmly continued to eat.

Without a full belly, how could he have the energy to fight?

Tang Xiao, without asking, immediately understood and turned to Tang Long:

“Have the remaining guests go upstairs for leisure and entertainment, Jie and I will be stepping out for a moment!”

“What’s going on?

I saw Jie take two calls!” Tang Long had been suspicious all along.

“Meng Sihua came with people, but don’t worry, we’ll handle it.

Just take good care of the guests!”

Tang Xiao waited until Wu Jie finished eating, then got up from the table.

They hadn’t gone far when Wu Jie advised:

“You better stay here.

Who fights in a dress?

Besides, aren’t you afraid of reopening old wounds?”

“Who said I’m going to lift a finger?

Don’t I still have you?” Tang Xiao’s lips curved into a cold smile, “What’s more, it’s not certain that Meng Sihua would dare to touch me!”

Wu Jie responded with an indulgent smile, “Great!

This is just the chance to let you see that your brother is skilled in both the literary and martial arts!”

As they joked, they arrived at the elevator.

Just as Wu Jie was about to press the button, the elevator dinged and slowly opened.

“Is it him?”

“Seems like it!”

“Damn!

What are you waiting for?”

“Hit him!”
