549: Chapter 549: Too Motherly!

Wailing!

549: Chapter 549: Too Motherly!

Wailing!

Meeting again, does all past grudges disappear with a smile?

Wu Jie raised an eyebrow.

He silently thought to himself, Meng Sihua really has changed!

The system didn’t even react.

He wasn’t the least bit envious, jealous, or resentful.

“Yeah, it’s been ages since we’ve met, you’ve almost gotten chubby like a ball!”

Meng Sihua laughed awkwardly and then sat down on a sofa far away.

Nangong Yao, with delicate skin and fair complexion so enviable that countless women would be jealous, asked in surprise:

“Old Meng, why are you sitting so far away?

Come over here!”

Saying this, Nangong Yao settled into the armchair next to Tang Xiao.

Crossing his legs like a woman, he leaned to one side with his cheek propped on his hand.

His eyes, accentuated by colored contacts, stared straight at Tang Xiao.

“Sis, how do you maintain such skin?

It’s just like white jade, so delicate!”

“What’s the saying?

Oh, right, ‘born with a natural beauty!’ Sister, you really are a top-tier beauty!”

“Your black, shiny hair, what brand of shampoo and conditioner do you usually use?”

“And the scent on you smells so amazing, what perfume is that?

Really fragrant!”

…

Nangong Yao’s voice was coquettish.

Listening to it made Wu Jie not feel his hair stand on end, but rather sick to his stomach.

Damn it!

Looking every bit the part of a man, yet speaking more affectedly than a woman?

That demure smile, those dainty fingers, that pretentious, fussy demeanor…

Fuck!

Wu Jie really wanted to choke him to death.

Such a person not going through a sex change and living is an insult to the phrase ‘real man.’

Indeed!

Tang Xiao couldn’t bear to look straight and turned her head to look at Wu Jie the whole time.

But Nangong Yao’s voice really did give people the ‘creeps,’ with goose bumps all over.

“I’m going to the bathroom!”

Tang Xiao stood up and left directly.

“Wow!

Sis, your figure is so amazing!”

“You must work out regularly!

Your curves are even more shapely than my yoga instructor’s!!”

Nangong Yao exclaimed with a narcissistic voice and exaggerated expression.

Wu Jie cast a cold glance at him.

That pouting and frowning, the envious and jealous look, was it real?

He felt like he was about to puke out his breakfast.

And how can Meng Sihua stand such a sissy?

Could it be they are…

Shifting his gaze, Wu Jie scrutinized Meng Sihua with an examining look.

“Mr.

Wu…

don’t misunderstand, Nangong and I are good brothers, not the type of relationship you’re thinking of!”

Without even asking, Meng Sihua hurriedly took the initiative to explain.

Nangong Yao huffed and puffed up his pink lips.

“What do you mean, Mr.

Wu?

Do you look down on us?”

Wu Jie laughed, not bothering to respond verbally.

“In fact, men shouldn’t just be rough and rugged.

What’s wrong with living a bit more exquisitely?

If men wear makeup and speak softly, does that make them any less of men?”

Nangong Yao huffed again, “On the contrary, I think those men who don’t know how to dress and groom themselves and reek of body odor are the real failures of life…”

Wu Jie really couldn’t take it anymore.

Staying any longer, he really wanted to start hitting someone.

Smack!

Wu Jie took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag, blowing out a smoke ring.

The blue smoke dispersed, filling the air with its scent.

As expected!

The delicate Nangong Yao who had been acting coquettishly a moment ago, immediately started to cover his mouth and cough.

“Ew, how annoying!”

As soon as he said this, Wu Jie almost choked on the smoke.

And glancing sideways,

He saw Nangong Yao covering his mouth with one hand and flapping the other as if it were a fan, his face full of a mixture of grievance and disdain as he got up and left with mincing steps.

If he wore a wig, he would be no different from a woman.

Escaping to Meng Sihua’s side, Nangong Yao pinched his nose and pointed an accusing orchid finger at Wu Jie.

“It is not allowed to smoke in public spaces!

Making us breathe your secondhand smoke, you’re so bad!”

Pfft!!

Wu Jie burst out laughing.

God damn it!

A man actually said ‘you’re so bad’ in such a coquettish tone.

This feeling…

why is it so ridiculous and funny?

How was such a sissy made?

Did his father Nangong Xin also act like this?

Or did his parents raise Nangong Yao like a girl from a young age?

“Hey!

Why are you laughing?

What’s so funny?”

“I’m kindly reminding you not to smoke in public spaces!

It’s unethical!”

“People like you have a high chance of getting lung cancer; you’re not going to live long!”

…

Wu Jie couldn’t bear to look straight ahead, so he turned to the wall-mounted TV.

He would rather watch the brainless nationalist dramas than witness Nangong Yao’s nauseating sissy antics.

Realizing how awkward it all was, Meng Sihua quickly changed the subject.

“Mr.

Wu, didn’t you and President Tang just get married?

Why are you also here for a check-up?

Don’t tell me you two are also heading to the Super Cruise Ship Brune next week?”

“For fun!” Wu Jie laughed.

“Hitting tourist spots just doesn’t cut it anymore, we want to try something more thrilling!”

Meng Sihua was incredibly embarrassed.

“Thrilling?

This…

this would be your first time going, right?”

Wu Jie frowned slightly, “Yeah!

By the look on your face, is there a problem with taking a honeymoon trip on the Super Cruise Ship Brune?”

Nangong Yao laughed heartily, shaking all over like a blooming flower.

And Meng Sihua became even more embarrassed.

Glancing toward the direction of the restroom, Meng Sihua kindly cautioned,

“I think it’s best if President Tang doesn’t go!

The young and beautiful women on that cruise are there to make money, not to spend it!”

The words were quite cryptic.

Wu Jie was sharp and understood instantly.

However, Nangong Yao seemed afraid that Wu Jie hadn’t grasped it.

“Why would President Tang go?

That cruise is where the rich and powerful go for thrills, feasting, playing, and…

resting.”

“Most of the guests are men, and a small portion are rich old ladies!”

“If President Tang goes, haha, I’m afraid she’ll be misunderstood!”

Wu Jie smiled faintly.

Actually, he had already considered this aspect.

After all, why would the wealthy and noble go onto a cruise with such high secrecy if not for…

certain reasons?

So, if Tang Xiao went, it would be more than just awkward; she might also run into a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Seeing that Wu Jie was silent, Meng Sihua thought he hadn’t understood.

“Mr.

Wu, I really suggest you don’t take President Tang there, many behave as if they’re back to the primitive society, indulging themselves!”

Meng Sihua kindly advised.

With his and Nangong Yao’s ‘subtle’ introduction, Wu Jie got the picture.

The Super Cruise Ship Brune was essentially a ‘free and easy’ primitive society.

No one could bring phones or cameras for photography, and everyone had undergone stringent health checks, ensuring they could indulge in every activity with peace of mind.

Basically, poverty limits one’s imagination!

The joys of the rich are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Meng Sihua and Nangong Yao had both been there, so their ‘kind reminder’ seemed not unreasonable to Wu Jie.

So, should Tang Xiao go?

Wu Jie narrowed his eyes, taking slow, deliberate drags from his cigarette.

You can’t catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger’s den!

With the drug lord Kun Qianxi onboard, Tang Xiao would certainly go.

And with so many beauties on the cruise, including top models, Tang Xiao surely wouldn’t feel at ease letting him go alone!

“I’ll give it some thought!”

Wu Jie nodded in agreement, and Meng Sihua and Nangong Yao exchanged looks, no longer bothering him.

The air suddenly grew quiet.

Wu Jie put out his cigarette butt and pulled out his phone to play games and pass the time.

Yet his gaze inadvertently caught Meng Sihua and Nangong Yao whispering and chuckling close together.

Nangong Yao even took out a makeup mirror, inspecting his makeup carefully.

Damn!

A man constantly checking himself in a makeup mirror was just too much.

And even more flamboyant was…

Applying lipstick and patting on foundation to touch up his makeup…

If it were a woman, Wu Jie would have found it normal.

But a man…

Did it have to be so flamboyant?

He felt a chill run down his spine!

Lighting another cigarette, Wu Jie bowed his head, ready to dive back into his game.

But Meng Sihua got up and moved to another seat.

“Mr.

Wu, I didn’t steer you wrong when I urged you to start a business, did I?

Look at how successful your DaShenPai has become, it’s really booming now!”

Wu Jie glanced sideways, “You need something from me?”

“Well, it’s not really anything specific, I just saw you with President Tang and got this spur-of-the-moment idea that we could actually collaborate well, you know?

My BoWeiEr Communication Group isn’t top-tier in the industry but it still has some strength…”

Meng Sihua truly knew how to seek business opportunities.

For the East Africa SAM project, Wu Jie initially won the bid with a quote of 6.66 billion Gold Coins; he was willing to subcontract it for 4 billion Gold Coins.

Allowing Tanglong Industrial Group to profit over two billion Gold Coins without lifting a finger.

Subcontracting projects is quite common.

But Wu Jie outright refused.

“This project is meant to be a model project.

If I subcontracted it to you, who knows what you’d turn it into?”

Meng Sihua chuckled, “Then what about your Star Cloud Internet Technology?

I heard you haven’t started financing yet—can I invest?”

“Forget it!

I’m not lacking talent, technology, or market…

Why would I need financing?”

Wu Jie’s retort made Meng Sihua somewhat uncomfortably embarrassed.

Times had changed, and people with them!

The assets, wealth, and social status of both had undergone tremendous changes compared to the past.

Meng Sihua smiled wryly, stood up, and returned to sit next to Nangong Yao, no longer disturbing Wu Jie’s gaming.

Before long.

After Tang Xiao came out, everyone became engrossed in their phones, gaming.

As noon approached, a nurse finally came in with the checkup reports.

Wu Jie and Tang Xiao checked their results, finding no issues.

On the other hand, Meng Sihua and Nangong Yao appeared particularly anxious, scrutinizing their reports closely.

Suddenly!

Nangong Yao let out a piercing scream, crying loudly.

And next to him, Meng Sihua also panicked, quickly flipping through his own report.

Then his body trembled, and he fainted…
