My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!
Chapter 70 - 70 70 Fierce Relatives!

70: Chapter 70 Fierce Relatives!

70: Chapter 70 Fierce Relatives!

Tang Xiao sneered in her inquiry, her tone quite high.

“If not in front of you, how can I, your Uncle, show that I’m sincere enough?”

Tang Feng looked at Wu Jie with gentle eyes, smiling as he said, “Such talent being a mere security guard at Tanglong Industrial Group, what a waste of talent!

Truly a waste!”

Dressed in glittering jewelry, the extremely noble and elegant He Hui stepped forward.

“Jie, come to our Tianyuan Tangfeng Mineral Resources, and I, your Auntie, will at least make you the manager of the security department, with a salary and benefits that are definitely most favorable!”

The sneer on Tang Xiao’s face became somewhat unnatural.

Of course, she understood the couple from Tang Feng.

They weren’t joking about poaching someone with a high salary.

Besides, everyone was well aware that Wu Jie was actually here to put on a show, to play the lover in front of the old man.

Where was he any sort of cousin-in-law?

Even the younger generation like Tang Kun couldn’t be deceived.

Not to mention the older generation, who were experienced and well-informed.

Could they run companies with hundreds or even thousands of employees, dominate the business world, and not have this bit of discernment?

So…

Seeing through something but not saying it, that’s the way of the wise in dealing with the world.

Now, what they valued was Wu Jie’s ability and character.

Just now, Wu Jie could have easily thrown a two or three and easily won Tang Kun’s Audi R8 sports car.

But Wu Jie did not; instead, he returned the Porsche Cayenne he won earlier to Tang Kun.

A man of principle desires wealth, but only in an honorable way.

Reliable character and impressive martial skills, how could they not want to recruit such a person?

Tang Xiao squinted her eyes and smiled,

“You think I’m mistreating Wu Jie?

Having someone as capable as him serve as a patrol guard for the group headquarters indeed belittles his talent, but it was his own choice not to go to the Special Services Division.”

He Hui scoffed and said, “Assigning him to the Special Services Division is still a disservice, isn’t it?

In my opinion, even serving as the deputy director of your Group’s Security Department would be more than adequate!”

While speaking, He Hui didn’t forget to wink at Wu Jie.

Tang Feng handed a business card to Wu Jie, smiling as he said, “No need to rush into a decision, you can think about it slowly.

Anyway, the manager’s position in my security department will always be kept for you.”

Wu Jie received the business card with both hands: “Thank you, Uncle, Auntie, for recognizing my worth.”

“Hey, listen to how you’re speaking, aren’t you being a bit too formal?” He Hui laughed scoldingly, “We’re all family, no need for such politeness!!”

The words “we’re all family” were especially emphasized in tone and pronunciation.

With a smile that was more mocking than genuine, He Hui glanced at Tang Xiao before she and Tang Feng returned to continue playing cards.

Tang Xiao huffed, turned around, and snatched the business card away, quickly tearing it to shreds.

“You’re my person, you’re not allowed to switch jobs without my permission!”

“I…”

“Have any objections?” Tang Xiao glared as she swept her gaze.

“How could I have any objections?

Of course, I’ll comply!” Wu Jie said with a smile on his face, yet he thought to himself, ‘Without following you, how could I be envied and resented by others?’

Sitting down after pulling out a chair, Tang Xiao tossed the shredded card into the trash can and coldly smiled upon glancing at the broken dice.

Wu Jie let out a long sigh and reluctantly sat down to one side.

“You said today’s birthday party would be complex, but I feel like this is just an ordinary family gathering?

Everyone here, except for me, is a direct relative; there aren’t any outsiders.

If I had known it would be like this, there was no need for the rehearsal last night.”

Tang Xiao said, “Don’t think of things as too simple!”

As soon as her words fell, Tang Long returned.

But he merely nodded distantly and did not come over.

“Big brother, come and relieve me for a moment, I can’t hold it anymore!”

Tang Xin’s mother, Zhang Yu, called out loudly.

Zhang Yu hurriedly got up and scuttled past Wu Jie and the others, leaving behind a trail of fragrance, the scent of Chanel.

“Xin’er’s mom is definitely not the kind to just sit back and save energy!”

Tang Xin whispered a reminder.

Wu Jie nodded slightly, having already heard from Tang Xin that her spirited and unrestrained personality came entirely from her parents’ influence.

And here was Zhang Yu, back from the restroom, not returning to the card table but instead coming over with a beaming smile.

“Those brats really are something, all buzzing off without staying to play with you two!”

Tang Xiao smiled and said, “It’s okay, Aunt Zhang, we’re fine just sitting here for a bit.”

Zhang Yu pulled up a chair to sit down, looking at Wu Jie with a smile.

“You two haven’t been dating for long, right?

I heard you met because Xiao Xiao you hit Jie with your car?

That wasn’t too long ago, was it?”

“Yeah!

Fate just comes so unexpectedly!” Tang Xiao said in an extremely flat tone.

Zhang Yu leaned in close and muttered,

“They all say you two are a fake couple, just to fool the old man, but I think you two look quite like a married couple!”

“Since you’re getting along well, why not just skip dating and go straight to marriage?

After all, Xiao Xiao, you’re not getting any younger, and with your old injuries, being a high-risk pregnant woman is too dangerous.

It’d be great to get married and have kids early!”

With a pause in her speech, Zhang Yu turned to Wu Jie and said, “As for Jie, well, we Tang family people don’t care about family background or financial conditions, whether you’re a rich young master or a country youth, it’s all the same.

Just be true and sincere to our Xiao Xiao!”

“Besides, with your physical condition, getting Xiao Xiao pregnant surely won’t be hard.

Register for marriage this month, and by next spring, you can have your father-in-law holding a grandson, so he won’t be lonely without a partner…”

…

I’m convinced!

Utterly convinced!

Wu Jie and Tang Xiao didn’t utter a single word.

Zhang Yu talked nonstop for several minutes, not even seeming to care about getting dry-mouthed.

Moreover, the content of her speech grew more and more unrestrained.

“…

Xiao Xiao used to train too hard, make sure to get a good check-up before getting pregnant, in case you two try countless times only to find you can’t get pregnant, wasting all that effort!”

“And Jie, if you want to have kids, you’ll have to quit smoking and drinking, cut down on garlic and celery, and not drink carbonated beverages either; they all kill sperm and are terrible for trying to conceive!”

“Regularly run, swim, and work out together, and…

you know, that thing you do together!

Anyway, you need to be happy both in body and mind, so the baby you have is healthy in both regards!”

…

Wu Jie and Tang Xiao exchanged a look, both feeling utterly unable to voice their complaints.

Finally, when Zhang Yu paused to drink some water, Tang Xiao immediately said,

“Aunt Zhang, we’ve only just started dating, getting married and having children is still far off!”

Zhang Yu’s face changed instantly, and she said sternly,

“Far off?

When I was your age, Xin’er was already old enough to ‘run errands.'”

“Your mom passed away early, and your dad didn’t look after you enough, letting you have your way.

What good has it done?

You’ve had so many suitors, and you haven’t taken a liking to a single one.

Now that a decent one has finally come along, you’d better not be picky!”

“You’re almost twenty-eight, do you really think you’re still in the prime of youth?

The whole family knows there’s still a bullet lodged in your spine, and who knows when you’ll bite the dust.

You really should hurry up and get married and have kids, so if something happens to you, your dad still has a grandchild to keep him company.

Aunt Zhang is only saying all this for your own good!”

…

How fierce, right?

And how domineering?

With Aunt Zhang’s sharp tongue, once she starts talking it’s like a machine gun firing nonstop.

This barrage of firepower left Tang Xiao without a response.

Just as Wu Jie was inwardly sighing about the situation, Zhang Yu suddenly shifted her barrage to him, asking with a smirk,

“Jie, looking at how shy you are, you’re not still a rookie, are you?”
