59: Chapter 59: Two Fake Girlfriends!
Tang Xiao sent a voice ssage.
“I posted the photos from tonight’s staged shoot on my social circle, did you see them?”
Wu Jie locked the door before replying:
“Saw it!
So that’s why you had go to Yida Plaza for a staged photo shoot, just to post on your social circle huh!”
Shortly after the ssage was sent, Tang Xiao quickly sent a video call.
Wu Jie didn’t hesitate and connected right away.
This ti, Tang Xiao didn’t avoid it and sat on the bed, wearing a headset and speaking to Wu Jie:
“I’m on a plane right now, the signal might not be too good, can you hear clearly?”
Wu Jie nodded repeatedly, “My god, private jets really are luxurious huh!
There’s even a bed, doesn’t that an there are bathrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, and stuff too?”
Tang Xiao laughed, “Of course, it’s fully equipped!
There’s even wireless internet.
Otherwise, how could I post on my social circle?”
Wu Jie pouted, “Poverty really does limit my imagination!
I really need to experience this for myself in the future!”
“Private planes aren’t that expensive, just a hundred thousand per hour for rent.”
“A hundred thousand?
And that’s it?” Wu Jie chuckled, “You better talk about serious stuff, I can’t handle your ostentatious display of wealth!”
Tang Xiao shrugged her fragrant shoulders, “Actually, it’s nothing major, the reason I posted on my social circle was simple.
It’s to give a heads-up to family and friends before grandpa’s birthday banquet, to prevent them from being too surprised when I suddenly bring you there the day after tomorrow.”
“Of course, that post really was sothing else, totally blew up.
Likes and comnts, just too many to count.
It’s a good thing our staged photo wasn’t too intimate, otherwise the reaction would have definitely been even more explosive.”
Lying on the bed, Wu Jie admired Tang Xiao’s stunning beauty and casually laughed:
“So what you an is, our romance is now officially out?”
“Uh…” Tang Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as she shook her head, “Semi-revealed, I guess!
We’ll see how it goes on the day of the banquet.
If I’m pressed, I’ll say we are already a couple.
Otherwise, I’ll just say we’re good friends.”
Wu Jie laughed, “Not bad!
This way, the power of speech is completely in your hands.”
“Right, after posting on my social circle, many relatives and friends sent private ssages asking about it.
I’ve been giving vague answers, including to my parents.
Doing this is also to keep the suspense until the day after tomorrow, and decide based on how the banquet goes!”
Tang Xiao changed the subject, smiling as she asked, “You don’t have any problems, right?
I’m afraid with this exposure, you’ll be quickly entangled in all sorts of troubles.”
“Worried about what?
At most, I’ll be envied, jealous, and hated!
An ugly toad gobbled up swan at, wouldn’t that provoke resentnt?”
Tang Xiao laughed, “That’s true!
And with your skills, even if soone wants to cause you trouble, you can easily deal with it.
Let’s leave it at this for now, my sister is looking for .”
“Good night!”
As soon as Wu Jie finished speaking, the video call was disconnected.
Damn!
Wu Jie was startled.
“Huh?
Did she just say sister?
Then that must be Tang Xin from next door!”
Rolling out of bed, Wu Jie had just opened the door when he heard Tang Xin’s voice from next door.
“…
What?
Just friends, quit fooling …
You think I don’t know, he’s the pretend boyfriend you hired?
Okay, don’t worry, I’ll definitely keep it a secret, I’ll pretend I know nothing…”
Wu Jie was taken aback, thinking: “Xin’er, this crazy girl, is quite an actress!”
He went back into his room, but before he could lie down again, there was a knocking on the door.
“What now?” Wu Jie got up to open the door.
Tang Xin stood at the door with a cold smile.
“My goodness, you’re impressive, my brother!” Tang Xin laughed, “I never expected you to be so charming that both my sister and I sought you out to be a fake boyfriend.
But I’m curious, what did she give you in return?
How much is the pay?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about!” Wu Jie insisted firmly.
Tang Xin scoffed, “My sister has indirectly admitted it, you’re the fake boyfriend she hired, and the idea to deceive our relatives and friends was mine originally.
But I didn’t expect her to pick you!”
“Not only have I ended up being your roommate, but I also hired you to pretend to be my boyfriend tonight.
Man, this is just too much of a coincidence!”
Wu Jie gave an awkward smile, “That just proves I’m fated with you sisters, huh!”
“Whether there’s fate or not, as long as you keep my cousin’s secret, I’ll keep yours, and the three of us can live in peace, how about that?”
Tang Xin spoke in a negotiating tone.
Wu Jie shrugged.
“Do I even have another choice?”
Tang Xin’s eyes danced, and she flashed a charming smile.
“But it’s not a bad deal for you!
Even though you’re still single, you have two top-quality girlfriends!”
“Fake ones, what’s the use?” Wu Jie retorted.
Tang Xin giggled, “Then you better work hard!
Although making it real with Xiao is out of the question, if you manage to win over Lin, or buy an apartnt within a year and win the bet, I’ll be your real girlfriend for three days!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of a door opening ca from the living room.
“Shh!” Tang Xin imdiately signaled to be quiet and then swiftly turned to go back to her room.
Wu Jie was stunned.
“What’s the situation?
Is Tang Xin afraid of eting Lin Wan?”
At this ti, Lin Wan walked in gracefully.
“Thank you so much for last night; it doesn’t hurt at all today.
But, I saw you at the movie theater today, that girl beside you, is she your girlfriend?
She’s really beautiful!”
Lin Wan’s voice was extrely gentle and lodious, her words flowing smoothly.
Tonight, she was dressed in a pale aqua gown that perfectly accentuated her elegance and grace.
It was as if a beauty had stepped right out of a painting, exuding the charm of an ancient Eastern classic, distinguished and refined.
Wu Jie smiled faintly, “Just a normal friend.”
“I see, but…
couples start out as normal friends, right?
Take it slow, I have faith in you.
Keep it up!” Lin Wan took out her keys to open the door, turned her head, and smiled, “By the way, you’re not working tomorrow, Saturday, right?
I’ll cook lunch to thank both of you.”
“Sure, no problem!” Wu Jie nodded in agreent.
After closing the door and lying down, his phone made a ‘ding’ sound.
Tang Xin sent a voice ssage: “Lin really is too enthusiastic towards .
Every ti she looks at with those gentle, affectionate eyes, I feel all creeped out, so I’m going to go shopping early tomorrow and leave you two so alone ti.
Maybe you’ll win her over, and I’ll be freed from this!”
Wu Jie was about to reply with a voice ssage, but considering the soundproofing of the apartnt, he decided to text instead.
“I’m not taking the bla for this!”
A brief five words in return, and she sent a thirty-second voice ssage.
“You see, Jie, look at you – you know martial arts and acupuncture, you’re so capable, why can’t you win her over?
You must work hard, otherwise I will be too scared to face her in the future!”
“If you think I’m exaggerating, put yourself in my shoes.
What if a strong, muscular man looked at you with tender, watery eyes, and treated you with gentleness and care, what would you think?
Disgusted, right?
Bro!”
After listening, Wu Jie dared not even think about putting himself in that situation.
Fuck!
I’m a real man.
After replying with ‘I’ll try my best’ in three words, he turned over and went to sleep.
The next day.
When Wu Jie woke up, it was almost noon, and sure enough Tang Xin was nowhere to be seen.
Lin Wan was also out of sight, but on the dining room table, he found a note with elegant handwriting.
“Sorry Jie, sothing ca up last minute, so I can’t cook.
I’ve ordered you delivery; it’ll arrive at noon, just a small token of my gratitude!”
Wu Jie laughed.
“With Xin’er not here, you don’t even want to cook and you order delivery…
dammit!”
After freshening up, the delivery arrived right on ti.
Lin Wan was pretty considerate, the al with three at dishes and one vegetable was very nice, truly delicious!
After satisfying his hunger, Wu Jie went downstairs to drive and pick up a gift.
But just as he exited the elevator, he witnessed a rather bizarre scene…
