Chapter 689: Chapter 663 Nothing is More Important Than the Daughter-in-Law (Thanks to kateliu for the Silver Reward and 23 updates)
Xiao Qian had something she couldnāt figure out.
The š®ost uptodatš novels are pubš”ished on freeweÉnovÄl.coɱ.
She was quite adept at guessing peopleās thoughts, from magnates like Mai Hadi to scum like Oliver James, no one could escape her calculations.
But Yu Xiaoqiang was the one she couldnāt figure out.
She couldnāt figure him out in the past, and she still canāt figure him out now. Boss Qian refuses to admit that Yu Xiaoqiang is good at disguising himself. She felt that it was all because Yu Xiaoqiang would always contemplate unspeakable things with a very serious and earnest expression.
For instance, he was now driving the car very seriously, but his mind was filled with thoughts about corporal punishment.
Xiao Qian, who had more important things to do, started to ponder over Old Maiās matter after seeing off Liu Mei. When Ming Lang drove the car to their new home, Xiao Qian didnāt get off. Instead, she took out her personal diary and wrote a line on it.
Check if there are listening devices in the car, and check when you get home too.
Ming Lang temporarily put aside his inappropriate fantasies, instantly switching from Er Ha to an elite mode.
He signaled Xiao Qian to get out of the car, and then carefully searched the car, but didnāt find anything suspicious.
Both went upstairs, and once again were confronted by the unattractive interior decorationā¦
Xiao Qian said to Ming Lang, āIāll go shower first.ā
Ming Lang nodded, pacing around the room.
Xiao Qian glanced at the empty house. Except for the bedroom and bathroom essentials, there was nothing in the new house: no cabinets, no TV, no appliances, only an ugly green floor and hideous pink walls that looked like something out of a rural love drama series.
The items she had bought with Lily Tang during the day hadnāt been unpacked yet and were piled up in a corner of the living room.
Er Ha Qiang was pretending to want to settle the score with Liu Mei, but it was clear he was just looking for troubleā¦
Ming Lang made a round in the room. There was nothing in their living room except for the sofa and coffee table, all were waiting to be bought according to Xiao Qianās preferences. Standing in the middle of the living room, he closed his eyes and began to mentally filter potential scenarios.
The box that Lily had brought for Xiao Qian was still next to the coffee table. The two women must have been sitting on the sofa chatting, while the bodyguard brought in the box. Given his wifeās character, she would definitely send the bodyguard away, not wanting to interfere with their sisterly chat.
That meant Old Mai only had the moment when the box was set down to make his move.
Ming Lang bent down and reached under the sofa where the box had been set down. He randomly groped around and pulled out a round object.
Aha, a listening device?
Using his personal knife, Ming Lang broke the device and threw the shattered pieces into the trash bin.
Although he wasnāt very adept at figuring out his wifeās thoughts, it wasnāt difficult for him to deal with stuff like this.
Ming Lang didnāt even look at the brown paper bag containing the stock transfer agreement that everyone was fighting over. He sat on the sofa, leafing through a renovation book, just as Xiao Qian walked out wrapped in a towel after her shower.
āFinished?ā
āYes, there was a listening device under the sofa.ā
āSo he did have ill intentions.ā Xiao Qian wasnāt surprised by this. It was clear that this Mai Hadi had ulterior motives.
āWhat exactly is he up to?ā
Xiao Qian whispered something into his ear.
āSo it turns outā¦ no wonder he brought this thing. It could fetch a good price on the black market abroad.ā Ming Lang took out the black boxing gloves.
āWhatās so special about this?ā Xiao Qian felt it and it seemed like just a normal half-hand boxing glove. She couldnāt see anything special about it.
āLook here, thereās a switch. If he makes a fist and it touches this spot, it will trigger the device inside. Thereās a circuit board that can generate a resonant wave. Once it reaches a certain intensity, it can shatter things. The theory is quite complex. You can just think of it as a kind of resonator. To make one like this costs a lot.ā
āSo such things actually exist?ā Xiao Qian was curious and touched it again, āThen who needs martial arts in the future? Anyone wearing this could dominate in close combat.ā
āDominate my ass, this thing is priceless but worthless. Weāre already past the era of cold weapons. If people really want to fight, they simply use guns. This thing is worthless in front of a bullet. Itās just a fancy toy that the rich young people buy to show off. It has power but no skill. Against people like us, it can be defeated in one move. Itās completely redundant.ā
āCan you find someone to modify this for me? Make it the same size as my hand, so I can use it for self-defense. Who knows when it might come in handy.ā
āYour little hand doesnāt need to be holding onto such boring things. You should be grasping more valuable things, likeāā
Four pounds?
Seeing the look in his eyes, Xiao Qian knew he was up to no good. How could they get into bed before theyād even discussed serious matters? Xiao Qian slipped away from him like an eel and, only wearing a towel, sat on the sofa, picking up the brown paper bag and elegantly crossing her legs.
Ming Lang swallowed hard as he became entranced by her beautiful legs, feeling the urge to make a move.
āThis is the wedding gift from my godfather. Do you want to see it?ā
āWhatās there to look at a stock transfer agreement? Your godfather has plenty of top lawyers, so there wonāt be any problems with the documents they draft. Thereās no need for me to check it.ā Ming Lang moved in closer absentmindedly. Xiao Qian tried to give him the paper bag, but he didnāt even glance at it, putting his hand directly on hers instead, creating a smooth caress~
āCan you be serious?ā
āWhat could be more serious than making a baby?ā A real man should love beauty, not money!
āDid you check it while I was taking a shower?ā Xiao Qian swatted away his wandering hand, but he was persistent and came chasing back.
āThereās no need to look. Just by hearing, I can guess that the Tang family is rich but stingy. Last year for your birthday, they gave you a house. The year before, they gave you a bunch of random bags that looked like a manual workerās sack. I donāt know what kind of taste rich people have. This year weāre getting married, and it coincides with a change in the Tang familyās leadership. Old Fox Tang must be racking his brains to win you over. Having given all the other gifts, all he can give now is shares.ā
Lily Tang was saved by Xiao Qian; the two sisters truly cared for each other. As for how much fatherly affection Tang Daye had for Xiao Qian, that remained a mystery.
It wasnāt that Tang Daye had no feelings for Xiao Qian; after all, Xiao Qian had saved Lily and repaired the father-daughter relationship between Lily and Tang Daye. However, it was impossible for Tang Daye to treat Xiao Qian as his own daughter just because of this. He was a businessman, and in his heart, interests always come first. The Tang family had always been generous with Xiao Qian because Tang Daye recognized Xiao Qianās abilities and wanted to provide Lily with a top-class staff officer. So, being generous towards Xiao Qian was a two-pronged strategy: on the one hand, he could rope Xiao Qian in using Lilyās affection, and on the other hand, he could give Xiao Qian some benefits. This way, if Lily ever ran into trouble in the future, Xiao Qian would definitely help her.
The old foxās calculations were quite astute, but to Brother Lang, none of this was as important as his wife.
Why is it so whiteā¦ Itās really nice to look at.
