In Zhao Renjie's eyes, Cheng Shi had many advantages, including strong execution ability, loyalty and reliability, and excellent fighting skills. However, his IQ and EQ were average, and he was not considered smart.
But what he just said hit the spot.
In Wang Meijuan's heart, Cheng Shi seemed to be a tall, simple-minded fool.
However, she still cared a little bit about him.
It's not good for a man to be too smart. There are so many flowers and plants outside, and there's no guarantee that he'll learn bad things one day. Only such fools are the most reliable.
At this moment, Cheng Shi was so scared that he couldn't help but pick up the wine glass and take a sip.
Fortunately, he drinks well!
"Why are you looking at me like this? Isn't that right? Mr. Shen is a medical device engineer. Now he is working for Mr. Leng. Bai Long must be afraid that he is too powerful and will affect Li Zishen, so he started with his wife. By chance, we None of them are here, they are all busy protecting the young lady and..."
Cheng Shi explained seriously, his big and bright eyes looking at Zhao Renjie for a while, and then at Wang Meijuan.
The old lady is right, too much talk leads to mistakes!
Next time, it will be safer for me to eat honestly and not do whatever I want to do.
"Okay, your mind works pretty fast!" Zhao Renjie nodded thoughtfully, and then said with great appreciation.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Wang Meijuan: "..."
"Oh? You mean... I'm not as smart as you, not as able to see beyond the surface to see the essence, not as strong as your investigative power, not as smart as you are?"
Cheng Shi: "?"
Forgot, forgot, and forgot again!
"No, Meijuan, that's not what I meant. I just think that Bailong..."
"Hmph, sit over there and stay away from me."
Cheng Shi scratched his hair in confusion, did not dare to say anything more, and moved his chair honestly.
He likes Wang Meijuan, but he is also very afraid of her.
In fact, in Tang Mei's heart, as a bodyguard, loyalty is more important than intelligence. That's why she chose Cheng Shi, who had an average IQ and EQ among more than 20 children, to support him in his studies. Arrange for him to serve as a soldier.
But as he continued to learn and be influenced by what he heard and saw, his investigative ability naturally improved a lot.
At this moment, Zhao Renjie, who was eating melon on the side, secretly sighed in his heart: Oh, thank God, these two people were able to get around it!
Then, he took the opportunity to chat about Haisheng, a medical device company on Huanhai Road, and Chihai, a seven-star hotel that he had just acquired earlier. Now that they are all under Tang Xiaowan's name, where will she go to work tomorrow morning?
In this way, the awkward atmosphere was naturally resolved by this new topic.
"I'll probably go to Haisheng again."
"No, no, no, the lady seems to be more interested in Chi Hai. Before eating, the lady asked Bai Long a lot... about the hotel." Wang Meijuan retorted thoughtfully.
"Actually, at the hotel...as long as the personnel are well arranged, it will be no problem. Madam is the leader, so you don't need to go there on time, just make a phone call."
After Zhao Renjie said this, he poured another glass of wine each for Cheng Shi and Wang Meijuan.
…
While the three of them were discussing with great interest, in the master bedroom on the second floor, Tang Xiaowan, whose face was flushed, fell into deep thought about another matter.
"Why……"
Sighs came one after another.
Leng Lingxiao, who had just taken a shower, noticed something was wrong with her and asked with a smile: "Is the zipper of the skirt broken...are you angry with your husband?"
Tang Xiaowan rolled her eyes at the man, and then covered her head with a thin quilt.
His face, which was already red, was even redder now.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Tell your husband what's going on, eh? Who made my cute little Tangtang unhappy?"
Seeing that Tang Xiaowan still didn't speak, Leng Lingxiao smiled mischievously: "Well, it seems that he doesn't want to talk to me, so I have to do it...I'll find the answer myself. What could it be? Could it be..."
As she said this, Tang Xiaowan felt a sudden coolness on the left side of her body.
"I hate it, don't lift other people's quilts!"
"Then why don't we recruit him truthfully? This handsome guy's patience is limited. You will have to bear the consequences after one minute." Leng Lingxiao said as he slowly lay down next to Tang Xiaowan.
In less than ten seconds, Tang Xiaowan poked her head out from under the quilt, followed closely by her cell phone.
"Here you go, see for yourself."
It turned out that Tang Mei had sent a message to Tang Xiaowan two hours ago, but Tang Xiaowan had been busy at night, and it was not until Leng Lingxiao went to take a shower just now that he got some free time, and then saw the message.
Leng Lingxiao took the phone and just glanced at it, his brows immediately furrowed. For Tang Xiaowan, it was indeed a thorny issue.
"Ye Wanhua wants to recognize you as his daughter? Is it possible that he will come to Chicheng tomorrow?" Leng Lingxiao asked in a deep voice.
Tang Xiaowan nodded, looking a little anxious: "Yes, that's what I mean. I know this may be a little hard for you to accept, right? Me too, inexplicably, you accept me as your daughter? The key is... grandma actually still Agree, no objection, has this been bribed?"
Leng Lingxiao was silent for a moment, looked deeply at Tang Xiaowan, and said softly: "Didn't I secretly test the blood relationship between you and Ye Wanhua last time?"
"It's not true!" Tang Xiaowan replied with a frown, obviously unwilling to do so.
"Tangtang, to be honest, I really hope you are, so... this can be regarded as fate. Like grandma, I have no objection."
After hearing this, Tang Xiaowan's nose felt sour, and she suddenly hugged Leng Lingxiao's waist. The man stretched out his slender arms and hugged the worried little wife tightly into his arms.
She has been deprived of maternal love since she was a child. No matter how naughty and willful she is, when it comes to family affection, she will appear very sensitive and helpless.
Tang Xiaowan's tears wet Leng Lingxiao's silk nightgown, but the man did not go out of his way to comfort her.
He gently stroked her dark hair.
"Tangtang, are you suspecting...this is Wang Junchen's conspiracy, right?"
When Tang Xiaowan heard this, she immediately became energetic and deliberately rubbed herself on Leng Lingxiao's nightgown, trying to cover up the traces of her crying.
Leng Lingxiao saw all this.
"Well, there is also a reason for this. After all, behind him is the whole Shishi. He must want to use me to deal with the Li family, and he has bad intentions."
Leng Lingxiao gently held Tang Xiaowan's hand and said firmly: "Before, we didn't know who was behind the scenes and where he was hiding. It's different now. We treat him... So don't be afraid. No matter what decision we make, I Everyone will support you.”
Tang Xiaowan's reddish eyes were moist again, and she looked at Leng Lingxiao intently, feeling warm in her heart.
"Hey, are you touched by this?"
"Huahua, I am really lucky, very, very lucky... When I met you, you taught me a lot of survival skills and took me to so many interesting places. You never complained."
Leng Lingxiao patted Tang Xiaowan's back and said softly: "Fool, I'm the lucky one!"
They hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's warmth. Although the problems at hand are bothering them, Tang Xiaowan believes that as long as they support each other and have lasting love, everything will be solved.
In fact, Tang Xiaowan also has a good impression of Ye Wanhua. He is domineering yet gentle, which indeed fits her image of a mother very well.
But Ye Wanhua’s husband Wang Junchen is the boss of Shishiyi. What a trick of God!
Leng Lingxiao felt Tang Xiaowan's inner entanglement and struggle. He knew that she had a crush on Ye Wanhua, and she also liked Wang Jinghui, a humorous quasi-grandfather, but she could not ignore Wang Junchen's identity and past behaviors.
This put Tang Xiaowan into a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
If she refused directly, she was afraid of hurting Ye Wanhua's heart, and also afraid that Wang Jinghui would look bad. After all, Wang Jinghui was currently pursuing his grandma Tang Mei fiercely and infatuatedly.
"Do you need... let me help you solve it?" Leng Lingxiao asked gently.
Tang Xiaowan frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
"Forget it, let's cut the knot quickly. Ye Wanhua calls tomorrow. I refuse directly, and then... tell her that I like her very much, but I can't be a mother. It's not bad to be a year-end friend. She is so young and beautiful, right? As for...if Wang Jinghui and grandma get married in the future, let’s talk about it then, there won’t be many opportunities to meet her anyway!”
Leng Lingxiao nodded in agreement.
"Yes, that's right! Logically speaking, before she comes... she will call first."
"I would say this even in person."
"I support you with my hands and feet!"
"Wow, I suddenly feel refreshed and comfortable!" Tang Xiaowan breathed a sigh of relief.
"You haven't told me what other reasons are there? Apart from the big bad guy Wang Junchen, what else is there? Come on, tell me about it quickly."
"That's because... I firmly believe that my mother is still alive, and so is my father, for sure."
"So there is no need for someone else to replace you?"
"Yes, that's right. Besides... I still have you as my all-powerful fake mother! How about... let's play role play again? You will still be the mother and I will still be the baby!"
"How is the appearance fee calculated in the middle of the night?"
After saying this, Tang Xiaowan blinked her big eyes, looking pitiful.
But soon, there was a sweet smile.
I saw Leng Lingxiao walking straight to the cloakroom and starting to carefully choose skirts. Unfortunately, she was too tall and could only wear them.
"Do I need to order a few pieces for you?"
Hearing this, Leng Lingxiao smiled mischievously, simply took the flashiest one and ran towards Tang Xiaowan.
