The Crazy Son-In-Law

Upon returning to the living room, Tang Shishi took out some cut fruit from the fridge and placed it on the coffee table, leisurely swiping on her phone.

“She seems very afraid of you,” Xiao Shun asked.

“She’s not scared of me, she’s scared I won’t come to play with her,” Tang Shishi replied.

“Why?”

Tang Shishi seemed suddenly reminded of something, looking at Xiao Shun she asked, “Can you cure ultraviolet allergies?”

“That’s not a particularly severe disease.”

“The condition of Tang Guo is severe.”

Tang Shishi sighed, “Haven’t you noticed that almost no outside light can be seen in this room? The lighting here is specially made, with almost no ultraviolet light, just like the light emitted from a computer screen.”

“Tang Guo has had a severe ultraviolet allergy since birth. As soon as she’s exposed to light, she gets rashes all over her body. In severe cases, she even sheds skin. Within a few days, it’s as if she has shed an entire layer of skin. It’s frightening.”

“So she has always had to stay indoors since she was little. When she was younger, she used to have friends come over to play with her, but as they grew up and started going to kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, and university…”

“You know, everyone has their own circles. As she grew older, she had fewer and fewer friends in reality, so she had to meet friends and learn about the world through the virtual space of the internet.”

“Her mother is no longer here, her father remarried and now has his own family. Plus, he’s usually busy and doesn’t have much time to spend with her.”

“Sounds pretty pitiful, doesn’t it?” Tang Shishi said with a gloomy expression.

Given the capabilities of the Tang family, Xiao Shun believed that they had done their utmost to treat Tang Guo. If they could have cured her, they would have done so already.

“I can try.”

“Are you confident?” Tang Shishi asked.

“Congenital diseases are much harder to cure than acquired ones. I can’t guarantee anything, but I’ll do my best.”

“Good, when Tang Guo is done, I’ll talk to her. Right now, Tang Guo is very resistant to the idea of getting treatment. But I can sense that she actually longs to live a normal life like everyone else, to be able to go out and interact with people, to enjoy the sun on the beach. Perhaps it’s because she’s experienced so many failed treatments that she’s developed this resistance.”

“I understand, that’s quite normal. I think she’s actually quite optimistic and resilient,” Xiao Shun said with a smile.

“Being unable to see the light for so many years, her optimism is all she’s got.”

“No wonder she’s so desperate to find a boyfriend. Is she trying to find a boyfriend to keep her company?”

“She has many boyfriends. When she was younger, it was the Black Cat Sheriff, recently it was Luffy, now I don’t know who it is, so don’t take it seriously,” Tang Shishi said with a smirk.

“I think it’s my charm that attracted her.” Xiao Shun straightened up, adjusting his clothes with a narcissistic air.

“Pah!” Tang Shishi spat lightly.

About an hour later, Tang Guo walked out of her bedroom, her laptop in hand.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“How’s it going?” Tang Shishi asked.

“There are a total of 432 Fang Jings in the whole city,” Tang Guo placed the laptop on the coffee table, “I’ve collected all the information onto the computer.”

“Isn’t this illegal?” Xiao Shun asked.

“If you get caught, it’s illegal. If you don’t get caught, it’s not,” a hint of smugness flashed across Tang Guo’s young face.

“No one can catch me. Don’t worry, handsome, would you consider being my boyfriend? I’m very good.”

“Tang Guo, are you asking for a beating?” Tang Shishi threatened, swinging her fist.

“Alright, alright, I won’t fight over you,” Tang Guo stuck out her tongue.

“Can you filter out those between 40 and 50 years old?” Xiao Shun asked.

Going back twenty years, Fang Jing was just graduating and probably in her twenties. Now, she would likely be in that range.

“Of course.” After tapping a few keys, Tang Guo said, “There are a total of 34.”

“Are any of them living in the city center?” Xiao Shun continued to ask.

“Do you know she lives in the city center?” Tang Shishi interrupted.

“Somebody saw her there.”

“Just because she was seen there, it doesn’t necessarily mean she lives there. You should know this.”

“True,” Xiao Shun admitted, realizing the information his father-in-law gave him was effectively useless.

“These are their identification details. See if the person you are looking for is among them.” Tang Guo moved the laptop a bit to face Xiao Shun.

Xiao Shun carefully compared the information. Twenty years had passed and people would have changed significantly. Most women in their forties had lost their original figure, making it difficult to match them with the youthful Fang Jing in the old picture. In the end, he identified five potential matches. The next step was to visit them in person.

“Did you filter only the residents registered in this city?” Xiao Shun asked.

“Not just them. I’ve collected the data of anyone who lives in the capital and whose information was stored by the local authorities,” Tang Guo said, picking up a piece of apple with a toothpick and mumbling.

“Thank you,” said Xiao Shun.

“Politeness is unnecessary. Shishi’s man is my man. We’re all family,” Tang Guo said cheerfully.

Xiao Shun: “…”

“Tang Guo, how about we have dinner at your place?” Tang Shishi suggested, giving Tang Guo a helpless look.

It was almost five in the afternoon. She knew Tang Guo would be thrilled if they stayed for dinner. She could take the opportunity to mention the treatment plan to her. Hopefully, Tang Guo would not reject it.

“Sure, sure,” Tang Guo agreed happily.

Tang Shishi and Xiao Shun exchanged a knowing smile. After the nanny prepared their dinner, she started to tidy up the house.

The three of them sat around the dinner table, eating. As they enjoyed their meal, Tang Shishi told Tang Guo about Xiao Shun’s successful treatment of her father, leaving out the embarrassing parts.

“I didn’t expect you to be this talented,” Tang Guo said, looking at Xiao Shun with admiration.

“So, how about letting Xiao Shun take a look at you too?” Tang Shishi suggested with a smile.

“Sure!” Tang Guo agreed without thinking, then noticed something was off. Her face fell and she lowered her head, silently eating her rice.

“I know what you’re thinking. You’re afraid of being disappointed, right? But you’ve been disappointed so many times before, one more time won’t make a difference,” Tang Shishi said, soothingly stroking Tang Guo’s head.

Tang Guo stopped eating, turned, and stared at her, “Is this your way of comforting me? That’s too much.”

Xiao Shun also looked at Tang Shishi with surprise. He had thought he was bad at comforting people, but Tang Shishi was surprisingly… harsh.

However, one couldn’t apply normal psychology to Tang Guo. She was a two-dimensional beauty trapped indoors for over a decade. Imagine that, a person confined indoors for over a decade and a two-dimensional beauty. The psychological impact of those combined would be peculiar.

And so, an incomprehensible result occurred.

Tang Guo actually agreed…
