A Bad Premonition!

887: Chapter 883: The Beauty’s Mind!

A Bad Premonition!

Tang Xiao wore a smile.

Her gaze scrutinized Wu Jie as if she could see through everything.

She pointed out all the stunning beauties around Wu Jie in one breath.

It seemed as if Wu Jie really had some connection with one of them.

“I’m not interrogating you, but I’ve been completely honest and told you everything about Yunxuan.

What about you?”

“If you have any secrets, feel free to speak up.

I promise I won’t get angry or bring up past issues!”

Wu Jie frowned slightly and laughed inwardly.

Can a woman’s words be trusted?

When they go shopping and say they won’t buy anything, does that really mean they don’t like it or want it?

When they say they won’t get angry or bring up past issues, are they truly generous and indifferent?

If Wu Jie really believed that, it would be akin to signing his own death warrant.

A woman’s selfish nature and gossiping are instinctual.

If Wu Jie naively told the truth, it would be a dead end for him.

So…

“What past issues to bring up?

If I really had any connection with them, with your abilities, wouldn’t you have noticed?”

Wu Jie glanced at the blushing Chu Yunxuan and chuckled,

“I understand that what happened between you two was purely accidental and caused by alcohol.

I get it!”

“You’re not hoping that I mess up just so you can feel better about yourself, are you?”

Tang Xiao smiled wryly.

“I was just saying.

Alright, Yunxuan, you can go now.

Jie and I have some business to discuss!”

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunxuan, as if receiving a pardon, quickly got up and left with a smile.

Wu Jie smirked, watching Chu Yunxuan leave.

Such a stunning beauty, and I haven’t had a taste, but Tang Xiao beat me to it.

He turned his gaze as Tang Xiao looked back at Chu Yunxuan.

“How about it?

Is she much better than me?”

Wu Jie snorted with laughter.

“How can she compare to you?

I’m just wondering what exactly happened between you two last night.”

“You!!”

Tang Xiao’s ears and neck flushed with embarrassment as she picked up an apple from the table and hurled it fiercely at Wu Jie.

Wu Jie caught the apple and took a big bite with a crunch.

His gaze fixed intensely on Tang Xiao, making her feel uneasy.

“Why are you staring at me?

Do you plan to remember this forever and occasionally bring it up to ridicule and mock me?

To make me feel ashamed and guilty in front of you?”

Wu Jie, eating the apple, laughed heartily,

“You’re really overthinking it.

It’s just a small issue that happened without intention; what can we do about it?”

“Even if I were extremely capable, I couldn’t turn back time and rush over last night to stop you two!”

“Besides, when I previously dealt with Chu Yunxuan for buying a house or poaching her to our company, you always suspected our relationship wasn’t proper!”

“Now what?

Your relationship has progressed leaps and bounds to become super good friends, so that’s something good, right?”

Tang Xiao glared resentfully at Wu Jie.

She pouted and huffed,

“Yunxuan is indeed great, unbeatable in looks and figure, and also possesses excellent working capability and a serious attitude.

She really is a rare talent with both beauty and brains!”

“Women naturally get jealous, envious of others who are younger, prettier, or more capable; otherwise, why would so many women meticulously apply makeup, dress up, or even spend money on cosmetic surgery!”

“So, I was initially guarded against her, just as you would feel uneasy and cautious if there was a particularly outstanding, capable, and handsome man around me!”

Wu Jie gave a sheepish smile.

“Impossible!

Where in the world could there be a man more excellent, capable, and handsome than me?”

“Get lost!”

Tang Xiao picked up the apple again to throw but didn’t let go and instead took a gentle bite.

While eating, she scoffed,

“Your shamelessness is truly unparalleled in the world!”

Wu Jie laughed, “I’ll just take it as a compliment then!

Okay, about you and Chu Yunxuan, I promise never to bring it up again.

If you two go wild after drinking again, I won’t be mad!”

Tang Xiao grinned, “Good!

And if you ever get drunk with some guy, I promise I won’t get mad either…”

Wu Jie rolled his eyes, speechless.

…

Before long.

Wu Jie piloted the helicopter carrying Tang Xiao and took off slowly, flying directly towards Genlong Village.

Chu Yunxuan and other executives waited for another helicopter to arrive and pick them up.

The humming noise gradually faded.

The helicopter moved farther and farther away until it disappeared from sight.

It was unclear whether it was the scorching sun or the shock from last night’s events that was truly beyond belief.

Chu Yunxuan still had her cheeks flushed, burning hot.

She felt light as a feather, somewhat absent-minded.

Sigh!

Chu Yunxuan clenched her delicate fists tight, her pearly teeth biting into her red lips.

“How should I get along with them now?

Jie seems okay; he probably isn’t mad, but President Tang…”

Chu Yunxuan felt increasingly ashamed as she thought about it.

Of course, from another perspective, it was quite the feat!

Looking around the world, apart from Wu Jie, who else could be with Tang Xiao…

It’s just a pity…

She drank too much last night and hardly remembered anything.

Such a pity!

Such a shame!

While Chu Yunxuan deeply regretted this, Wu Jie was piloting the helicopter over the mountains.

“Slow down!

Don’t fly too fast!”

“Driving so wildly without a pilot’s license, you really are audacious!”

Tang Xiao muttered on the side.

Wu Jie snorted coldly, “What’s there to worry about?

As if a traffic cop is going to pop up in the sky to check my license?”

“You’re still arguing!

Climb a bit higher, don’t fly too low, it’s not only noisy but also risky to hit power lines!”

Tang Xiao felt that Wu Jie was deliberately making trouble, obviously caring a lot about last night’s events.

Amidst the buzzing sound, the helicopter swept over the rolling mountains and entered Pingle Town.

Their home didn’t have a helipad, but luckily the cement road was spacious enough.

Wu Jie lowered the altitude and approached slowly, very precisely and delicately parking the helicopter on the road.

After shutting off the engine, the rapidly spinning rotors no longer generated strong air currents.

However, the strong gusts had already blown the nearby corn all askew.

The already yellowing rice in the fields was also blown over extensively.

Mr.

and Mrs.

Wu Jianguo, who were on the mountain picking corn, saw the helicopter land and knew for sure their son and daughter-in-law had come back.

Looking around this area for miles, which other daughter-in-law could be so lavish?

The elderly couple hadn’t returned yet, but Wu Jie and his wife, accompanied by two operatives from the Security Bureau, went back inside the yard.

Da Huang, sensing the smell, bounded over from afar.

In the yard where corn cobs were being sun-dried, Old Mr.

Tang was fishing by the pond, while two guards casually strolled around.

With Da Huang hurrying along, the couple called out in unison, “Old Master.”

“Coming back without a heads-up and making such a big commotion, you’ve scared the fish from biting!”

Tang Pingde smiled amiably, glanced at Tang Xiao, paused slightly, but then his face quickly brightened with a smile.

Tang Xiao also noticed the change in Old Master’s expression and awkwardly shrank her neck.

“I…I’ll go to the restroom; you guys have a nice chat!”

Tang Xiao immediately fled in embarrassment.

Wu Jie sat down on a small stool, carefully covering Old Master with a thin blanket.

Da Huang rubbed against them, sticking out its tongue and panting heavily, tail wagging non-stop.

The accompanying operatives immediately tactfully walked away.

After taking a deep breath, leaning against the chair with a somewhat lazy air, Tang Pingde slowly said,

“I know about the assassination attempt on you, but I didn’t tell your parents, and as for the case with the Kong Family in Liuli City, I’ve heard about that too.

What can I say?

They brought it upon themselves!”

“I’ve long heard that Kong Hailin was becoming arrogant, reaching too far, so after I retired, I never associated with him!”

“Watching him build a tower, watching him entertain guests, watching his tower fall…

hehe, it’s not the irony of fate, but rather reaping what one sows.

Using your young people’s words, it’s ‘Act stupid, die stupid’.”

Looking at the untroubled surface of the pond, Tang Pingde paused for a while, then murmured to himself,

“In my life, I’ve gone through a lot and seen many people, but it’s only you, my boy, whom I truly misjudged.”

“Do you possess extraordinary capabilities, previously lying dormant, always subtly accumulating strength?”

Wu Jie chuckled, “Old Master, you jest.

What do I know about biding time?

It’s just good luck that brought me a little success.

To achieve greater success, I still need to earnestly invest in research, right?”

Tang Pingde slightly squinted, chuckling lightly.

“Young man, understanding how to keep a low profile in life and a high profile in work, that’s really good!”

“I truly hope to see you accomplish greater achievements!”

“It’s just a pity that these old bones of mine are nearly done!”

Wu Jie looked at Old Mr.

Tang’s face, heavily lined and wrinkled, suddenly feeling an uneasy premonition.

The weather of the old wives’ summer was oppressively hot, yet Old Master still needed a thin blanket.

They say one should be established by thirty, clear of doubt by forty, and understand one’s destiny by fifty.

Yet Old Master was already nearing his nineties.

“Old Master, let me take your pulse!”

Tang Pingde sighed deeply.

“What pulse to check?

Even if you had miraculous medical skills, you couldn’t let me survive until next spring.”

Wu Jie smiled faintly, reaching out to check the pulse…
