The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 249: Passion



“Feel free to sit down, I’ll pour you a glass of water,” Xiao Shun motioned towards the sofa in the room, then proceeded to pour a glass of water and handed it to her.

Ding Yue accepted the glass, took a sip, and with a faint smile, she said, “Mr. Xiao, you don’t need to worry about me, I’m fine now.”

“That’s good.” Xiao Shun replied, only to see Ding Yue take a bank card out of her pocket and place it on the coffee table.

“I can’t take this money. Mr. Xiao, please take it back. You don’t need to offend the Wei family for my sake. I know the Wei family, they are not to be messed with.”

“I was already at odds with them before you came along. It was none of your business. I’m the one who dragged you into this. This money is a compensation from the Wei family, you can take it,” Xiao Shun solemnly stated.

“But…”

“No buts, just take it. If you want to start a business, you can use this money. If you still want to stay in the workplace, I currently have a shell investment company in my hands. I plan to build it up, would you be willing to come and help me?” Xiao Shun asked as he sat down.

He had a lot of cash at hand now, and he could foresee there would be even more in the future. This money would be idle if left in the bank, so it’s better to invest it.

Ever since acquiring Golden Harrow, he felt the need to establish such an investment company. It’s not so good to always bother Wen Guangliang and Cai Junmin. However, he had been struggling to find trustworthy and reliable talents.

Song Linger, Zhu Que, and Duan Jia, these people were good at fighting, but if they were asked to run a company, they would probably go bankrupt in minutes.

Although he had only spent two short days with Ding Yue, he could tell that she was trustworthy, capable, and meticulous.

“An investment company? My university major was related to finance, but I’ve been working in other fields since graduation. I don’t have much practical experience,” Ding Yue’s eyes sparkled as she spoke.

She was a girl with a strong career ambition. Although she had a compensation of five hundred million in her card, it was not earned through hard work. It only reminded her of a past experience that was hard to erase.

“Experience can be accumulated slowly. You just have to be responsible for setting up the company. Leave the rest to the professionals. I believe in your abilities. From now on, you will be the general manager of this investment company.”

“I’ll talk to Kang Yongnian about it. You don’t need to worry about it. What do you think?” Xiao Shun spoke quickly.

“Since Mr. Xiao trusts me, I will certainly do my best.” After a moment of thought, a radiant smile finally bloomed on Ding Yue’s face.

“That settles it then. Let’s go, call Duan Jia to join us for breakfast.”

As the two of them walked out the door, they happened to meet Tang Shishi coming their way. Seeing Ding Yue, she gave a relieved smile and greeted them.

“Are you going for breakfast? Let’s go together. Right after breakfast, I need Mr. Xiao to give me acupuncture. It has been delayed for several days,” Tang Shishi said.

“Alright, I’ll do that after breakfast,” Xiao Shun replied.

Tang Shishi’s great contribution to Ding Yue’s rapid recovery could not be taken lightly. When Xiao Shun woke up that morning, he had received a message from her that Ding Yue was fine. He had doubted it at first, but now no words were necessary, the truth was in front of him.

As for how she had counseled Ding Yue, it was unknown. However, it was clear that the two seemed to be moving towards friendship. Watching the two of them, hand in hand, walking towards the elevator, Xiao Shun was somewhat dazed. Women were indeed strange creatures. Even someone as strong-hearted as Ding Yue was not an exception.

As dawn broke, Yao Cen rushed straight to Harrow. As she reached the hotel entrance, she began to hesitate. Her mind was in a mess, she wasn’t quite sure what she wanted out of rushing over. Catching a cheater in the act? But the timing seemed off.

Or was she here to verify that Xiao Shun and that woman had nothing going on? But how could she confirm it? Who would admit it?

Just as she was sitting in her car, lost in thought, she received a call from Wen Wanyu.

“Where are you? I’m coming to pick you up. I’ve found out the room number of that woman,” Wen Wanyu whispered like a secret agent, sounding quite nervous.

“I’m in the parking lot,” Yao Cen replied, biting her red lips.

Now that she was here, no matter the result, she couldn’t back down.

Soon, she saw Wen Wanyu sneaking towards her, looking around like a thief. As soon as Wen Wanyu saw Yao Cen’s car, she opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.

“I didn’t expect you to really come to catch the cheater,” Wen Wanyu said.

“I’m not here to catch a cheater. I’m here to attend the charity luncheon in the afternoon,” Yao Cen refused to admit it. The word ‘cheat’ sounded uncomfortable to her.

“Alright, what’s the big deal? If a man has a chance to cheat, nine out of ten will just do it. The other one might be gay,” Wen Wanyu seemed quite excited.

Perhaps because the situation wasn’t happening to her, as a bystander, she could not experience Yao Cen’s anxiety.

Yao Cen remained silent.

“Let’s go, don’t dawdle. I’ll go with you. You are the legitimate wife, what are you afraid of?” Wen Wanyu encouraged her, seeing her hesitation.

“If we really see something inappropriate, should I slap Xiao Shun or stab that woman?” Yao Cen asked.

This question left Wen Wanyu stunned. She had no experience in this either.

“Why think so much? Let’s go up first and see. No matter what you want to do, I will unconditionally support you. After all, you are my best friend,” Wen Wanyu said.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Yao Cen gave a bitter smile and took a deep breath, “Let’s go.”

Meanwhile, in Tang Shishi’s room, the heat was on high, making the room as warm as early summer. She was lying flat on the bed, wearing a small camisole. The outline of her full bra was faintly visible. She was wearing a pair of tight shorts underneath, her long and straight tender white legs were eye-catching.

Xiao Shun was disinfecting the acupuncture needles on the side. This time Tang Shishi didn’t bring Le Wen with her, so there were only the two of them in the room. The atmosphere was especially ambiguous.

Tang Shishi’s charming eyes were fixed on him, full of flirtatious intent.

Luckily, Xiao Shun was disciplined. If it were an ordinary man, his soul would probably have been hooked away. This girl was a calamity. After this acupuncture session, he would need to keep his distance from her.

“If you keep looking at me like this, I’ll get distracted. If something goes wrong and you end up dead, it would be a disaster. Have you thought about what it would be like if you ended up incapacitated for the rest of your life?” Xiao Shun glanced at her.

“You can get distracted?” Tang Shishi raised an eyebrow, smiling charmingly. It seemed that this man was normal after all.

“I’m a man.”

“A man without passion.”

“It doesn’t matter, close your eyes.”

“I don’t feel safe with my eyes closed. What if you steal a kiss?”

“You’re overthinking. Hurry up,” Xiao Shun said seriously.

Only then did Tang Shishi pout and obediently close her eyes.
