242: Chapter 242: Don’t ss with Big Brother!
The atmosphere turned dramatically!
Tang Xiao’s change of face was faster than flipping through a book.
At this mont, Wu Jie’s brain was racing with various thoughts.
What exactly had she found out?
Could she have discovered the billions in the warehouse?
That’s impossible!
Brother had disguised himself that night, even the warehouse lease was under a fake na.
He only visited yesterday and it was on impulse; it would have been difficult to tail him, right?
So, what else could it be?
Throwing a stack of books on the coffee table, Wu Jie sat down on the sofa next to Tang Xiao and sneakily took a glance.
That severe and solemn expression seed to indicate sothing quite serious.
“What’s with that face?
Since the beginning, we have only been collaborators, I don’t need to report everything to you, do I?”
Tang Xiao nodded slightly, “You don’t have to tell about your private affairs, and I’m not interested in knowing.
But what about matters involving Tang Xin?”
“You an the co-renting with her?
That really was a coincidence; I rented the Lin Yuan apartnt first, and then she moved in for her live streaming…”
While speaking, Wu Jie fell silent.
Because Tang Xiao’s expression was one of shock.
“Co-renting?”
Tang Xiao was astonished:
“You are actually co-renting with her?
What is the real relationship between you two?
Weren’t you supposed to be a fake couple?”
Wu Jie massaged his forehead and sighed internally.
Damn it!
This ti I really miscalculated, guessing the wrong question.
No wonder, throughout my life, I’ve never been certain about multiple-choice questions, no matter what I guessed, I always got them wrong.
“Uh…
I actually first got to know her through playing gas…”
Wu Jie simply spilled everything from the beginning to the end.
“Anyway, it’s that coincidental, and I won’t hide it from you, I just ca back from her place, and even caught a ride with Fang Qingya!”
Tang Xiao’s frown deepened.
“Did Xin’er ask you to co over to give her acupuncture?”
“Yeah!
I suggested she host a al with you…”
After listening, Tang Xiao leaned back on the sofa and let out a long sigh.
“Xin’er that crazy girl, she must be addicted!
If you don’t co up with a solution, she’ll definitely keep pestering you in the future!”
“It doesn’t bother ,” Wu Jie shrugged: “It’s just a few needles after all.
Don’t you want to reminisce?
I have silver needles and iodine in my room!”
Tang Xiao gave Wu Jie a disdainful look.
“She may be mad and addicted, but I’m certainly not!
However…
since you two are so fated, and she seems to have a good impression of you, you might consider her after we divorce!”
“Would I even need to consider?” Wu Jie said with a proud smile: “She already told tonight that if I don’t manage to win you over, she’s willing to take over and do laundry, cook for , massage and warm my bed!”
Tang Xiao laughed: “Really?
Well, since that’s the case, why don’t we go get a divorce next week, and that way I can help you two get together!”
This ti, it was Wu Jie’s turn to roll his eyes.
“You believe what that crazy girl says?”
Tang Xiao chuckled.
“Okay, no more joking!”
“Dad said he felt refreshed and clear-headed after watching Xu Changshan’s video of imnse pain and specially asked to inquire about the redy you used.”
“If the Group has billions and doesn’t know what to do with it, perhaps it wouldn’t hurt to take out your secret redy for so research!”
Wu Jie snorted coldly:
“Take it out for what?
This is my talisman for safety in the Jianghu, passed down to n and not to won!”
“If you give birth to a fat boy for , I might consider teaching it to him!”
“Get lost!”
Tang Xiao exclaid angrily: “I’m discussing serious matters with you, why are you talking nonsense?”
Wu Jie stopped joking around and said earnestly: “The redy isn’t worth researching!
Unless you want to poison the whole world and monopolize the antidote to make a huge profit?
But if you really do that, I’ll be the first to take you down!”
“You dare to take down?” Tang Xiao narrowed her eyes, revealing a sharp edge.
Wu Jie said with a sheepish smile: “Don’t stare at with that look.
Others may reverence the Tianyuan Tang Family, but I’m not afraid!”
Tang Xiao’s lips curved up slightly, and she offered a faint smile.
“Yes, you’re right.
With your ability, I guess there is no one in this world you would want to kill and couldn’t!”
“But what troubles now is what to do with the tens of billions of idle funds in the group!”
Wu Jie laughed, “Energy, transportation, healthcare…
There are plenty of profitable industries.
It all depends on whether you dare to invest heavily in R&D.
Even Fang Qingya said she wants to, she wants to research batteries.
I think you two could consider a collaboration!”
“Of course, I’ll consider it.
After all, although there are many problems, energy conservation and environntal protection are big trends!”
Tang Xiao stood up, glanced over at a thick stack of textbooks.
“Don’t read too late; you still have to go take pictures tomorrow!”
With a final reminder, Tang Xiao went back to her room.
Wu Jie carried the books back to his room, washed up, and lay on the bed to read.
The textbooks were all easy to understand.
After all, they weren’t for training specialists like aircraft designers or chanics.
Burning the midnight oil, he pondered carefully until sleepiness overwheld him and he dozed off.
The next day.
Wu Jie dread he had returned to ancient tis, surrounded by beauty on both sides.
Tang Xin served tea and poured water, Lin Yuan played the zither beside him, Tang Xiao and Fang Qingya practiced sword dance to add to the fun, while Bai Fengling was singing and dancing gracefully…
Thump, thump, thump!
The door suddenly sounded with knocks.
Wu Jie opened his eyes, and his beautiful dream shattered in an instant.
“Coming!”
Wu Jie rolled out of bed, yanked open the door, only to see Tang Xiao with a cold expression.
“We agreed on a 9 AM photoshoot, and it’s already 8 AM!!”
“Wait a sec!”
Wu Jie slamd the door shut, lit a cigarette, and slowly got dressed, cursing under his breath.
After breakfast, he went downstairs, and as soon as he reached the rcedes SUV, Wu Jie headed straight for the back seat.
“You drive, I haven’t had enough sleep!”
Tang Xiao snorted softly and muttered as she got in the car:
“The theoretical exam isn’t that hard, do you have to be so hard on yourself?”
Wu Jie couldn’t be bothered to reply and lay down on his side to catch so more z’s.
Before he knew it, they had arrived at the busiest comrcial pedestrian street in the city center.
Although it was only a pretend marriage, they couldn’t be too casual with the wedding photos.
So the photography company Tang Xiao had chosen was quite big, having rented out a three-story office building.
Once inside, a staff mber received them, and they went to the storeroom after filling out forms and making the paynt, selecting clothes and shoes, then proceeded to makeup and styling.
He put on a suit and leather shoes, a watch and ring, and tied his tie…
After a little hair restyling and so light powder, Wu Jie was ready to go.
But taking a look next door at Tang Xiao, things were a bit more complicated.
The large white wedding gown was stupendously majestic, even without the hairstyle and makeup done.
Once her hair was up and the veil and light makeup were on, she returned a smile, and truly, it was as if a queen had arrived.
“Miss, you have such an aura!” the stylist exclaid sincerely.
Tang Xiao smiled lightly and extended her right hand.
Wu Jie, montarily startled, quickly stepped forward to help her put on the white gloves and ring.
Graceful and poised, Tang Xiao gently hooked her arm into Wu Jie’s, stood up, and walked without a hint of nervousness or haste.
However…
Once they were inside the photography studio, composure was hard to maintain.
The photographer asked them to strike various poses.
Not only were there frequent bouts of physical contact, but there were also plenty of poses and expressions to manage.
“Groom, hug the bride from behind, don’t look tense, relax, smile…”
“Bride, hold the bouquet, close your eyes and pretend to be intoxicated, lean against your husband, oh my, don’t be shy…”
“Groom, get a little closer and hold her waist, bride, rest your head on the groom’s shoulder, be natural, don’t stiffen up…”
“Closer!
Even closer, groom be bold, bride, don’t look fierce, soften your expression…”
