265: Chapter 265: Father-in-law!

You’re really ruthless!

265: Chapter 265: Father-in-law!

You’re really ruthless!

“I’ve got this!”

Wu Jie, with quick reflexes, leaped forward in a swift motion and managed to catch Tang Xiao, preventing her from falling face-first to the ground.

The newly transformed her had a completely different physical constitution.

Given her current state, Tang Xiao’s physique was almost like that of a newborn baby.

So…

While she possessed the tender skin of a newborn, she also had the limited strength of a baby.

Due to her excessive excitement, she momentarily overburdened her heart and thus fainted abruptly.

Wu Jie quickly carried Tang Xiao to the bed and laid her down; just as he covered her with a blanket, the doorbell rang.

Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~

Immediately after, it was followed by her father-in-law Tang Long’s shouting.

“Xiao Xiao, Jie, open the door!”

Damn!!

Wu Jie was momentarily speechless, feeling as if ten thousand tractors were rampaging through his heart.

I haven’t even had the chance to quietly appreciate the newly transformed Tang Xiao, let alone take any small actions…

Disturbing at the crucial moment…

Could this fake father-in-law predict the future?

Reluctantly he covered her with the blanket and got up to open the door.

“Were you taking a nap?

Neither of you answered your phones!”

Tang Long handed the suitcase to Wu Jie and entered the house after changing shoes.

He sniffed inquisitively and then frowned.

“What’s with the medicinal smell?

Hasn’t Xiao Xiao gotten any better?”

Previously, to fend off relatives and friends, Tang Xiao had lied about being sick and resting for three to four days.

“Much better now, I just brought her back from the hospital, she got an injection and took some medicine, and she’s sleeping in the room!”

Wu Jie said earnestly with a smile.

Tang Long nodded slightly and said with his hands on his hips and a serious tone,

“Xu Changshan is really no good!

I’ve already heard the rumors, this major crackdown is sure to take him down!”

Wu Jie nodded and responded, “What goes around comes around, he’s bound to be done for sooner or later!

But Xiao Xiao and I haven’t been in any real danger lately.

We always cook at home, and we have personal protection when we go out!”

“That’s good!

But still, I want to see her; I have no idea what the illness has done to her!”

Tang Long headed towards the master bedroom, and Wu Jie quickly followed.

Upon opening the door and entering, Tang Long tiptoed to the bedside.

The sleeping Tang Xiao looked like a beautiful Sleeping Beauty.

Her fair skin was as flawless as white jade.

Her dense black brows, curved eyelashes, exquisitely shaped features…

She was utterly perfect!

However…

Tang Long furrowed his brow and sighed deeply.

“Ah!

Her physical quality is getting worse and worse!”

“She didn’t use to get sick so easily before?

Look, her small face is deathly pale!”

Tang Long sighed and shook his head.

And Wu Jie…

almost laughed out loud.

The skin of Tang Xiao, as tender as a newborn’s and glossy as jade, would make countless women envious to madness.

Maybe it was because the bedroom curtains were drawn, softening the light within.

Or maybe it was because Tang Long hadn’t seen his daughter for a while.

Therefore, he mistook Tang Xiao’s fair skin for a sickly pallor.

“Looking at her like this, I’m afraid she won’t be able to go to the Capital tonight!”

“If you don’t believe me, you might as well cancel that charity event and the entrepreneurs’ forum!”

Tang Long looked at his daughter with a soft and affectionate gaze, then suddenly his brow furrowed slightly.

“Strange!

Why are her lips so rosy?

Shouldn’t they be dark and purplish when someone is sick?”

Wu Jie explained, “It must be the effect of the medicine.

I’ve been boiling valuable medicinal herbs for her these past days!”

“Hmm, let her sleep!”

Tang Long turned to leave with his hands behind his back, glancing around the room as he went.

“With assassins even coming to the door, I think it’s better to sell this apartment!”

“I’m buying you two a new house, just perfect to serve as your new home!”

Wu Jie hurriedly said, “That’s not necessary, Dad, I can buy one myself.”

“Great!

Since you’ve earned quite a bit of money, it’s better to spend your own cash to buy a house and wed your bride.

You’ll feel more at ease living in it!”

Tang Long strolled slowly to the swimming room, but his face suddenly turned to one of shock.

“Did you two recently renovate this place?

Why are there air mattresses everywhere?”

“And this bodysuit on the floor, why is it all cut up?”

“Wow!

The dining table is even here, complete with plates and a clay pot.

You two wouldn’t happen to eat here, would you?”

“She was so hungry after her morning bath, I just brought her food here to eat.

As for these clothes…

I bought them online, and the quality wasn’t good, so I cut them up.

I’ll clean this up right now!”

Wu Jie explained haphazardly and immediately started to clear the table and pick up the clothes, then hurriedly left.

Tang Xiao sniffed dismissively and muttered to herself:

“Don’t think I don’t understand.

I’ve been abroad more than once, okay?”

After muttering softly to herself, Tang Long continued to tour the other rooms, becoming more and more dissatisfied.

Back in the living room.

Tang Long pulled Wu Jie aside and ordered:

“Xiao’s house was renovated to only be suitable for a young couple, which is just not acceptable.”

“You have to change the house, and it must be bigger with more rooms so it can accommodate a large family!”

“Plus, once Xiao recovers, sooner or later you two will want kids, so there has to be a little garden at home.”

…

So many demands!

Wu Jie just nodded in agreement.

After all, it’s just about money, and he had plenty in the warehouse.

The more they discussed, the more engrossed they became, and Tang Long simply made the decision for Wu Jie, calling the real estate division.

He asked them to provide some nice properties based on the requirements.

After a meticulous selection process, they settled on a luxury penthouse of over six hundred square meters.

It was in a good location, had an excellent layout, convenient transportation, and complete amenities…

Of course, the price…

A friends’ price of one hundred and twenty thousand per square meter, totaling almost eighty million after taxes.

And according to Tang Long’s requirements for a green, livable, and smart home renovation, it would probably cost about one hundred million.

Father-in-law!

You’re really ruthless!

Going all out for your daughter’s happiness, aren’t you?

“I’ll go with your suggestion and take this one!

Once Xiao and I return from the Capital, we can go pay and take care of the paperwork,” Wu Jie said.

“Why wait until next week?

Go pay and do it now!

I’m free this weekend, perfect for finding someone to design the renovation,” Tang Long replied.

While speaking, Tang Long sent Wu Jie the sales director’s phone number for the property.

“But Xiao…”

“You two really are glued to each other, inseparable,” Tang Long laughed, “Go on, I’ll talk to her when she wakes up!”

Wu Jie chuckled sheepishly.

Smiling on the face, but cursing inside.

Didn’t we agree that without a car, a house, or savings, we could still get married?

Why, now that I’ve earned a little money, are you making me buy a nice house to marry your daughter?

What’s next?

Once I get my pilot’s license, will I have to buy a plane to take your daughter on a round-the-world honeymoon trip?

…

But on second thought, buying a house for myself isn’t such a bad idea.

Since Tang Xiao and I are in a fake marriage, in case we split up one day, I’d need somewhere to stay, right?

Driving out, Wu Jie headed straight for the Tianyuan Haoting sales office.

Since someone was always protecting him discreetly, it wasn’t practical to take cash from the warehouse.

Otherwise, buying a house with several tens of millions in cash would make so many people green with envy!

Lucky for me, though!

As soon as he entered the sales department lobby, Wu Jie noticed an array of stunning beauties.

Each one tall and graceful, with a bright and beautiful smile.

And the best part, they were all uniformly dressed in white blouses and black skirts, with sweet smiles.

“Hello, Mr.

Wu!”

A delicate and pleasant soft voice suddenly came from behind…
