After returning from the Immortal World, Tan Xiu was very indifferent to his feelings. Although having sex was a matter of course, he was particularly cautious in this regard. It wasn't that he didn't want to have sex, but the pain of the past had yet to be completely healed. Nowadays, there were a lot of outstanding girls around him, many of whom he had a good impression of. But before the scar in his heart was healed, he didn't want to repeat the same mistake again. He couldn't bear a trace of emotional betrayal.
He and Mu Wanying were only a fake couple in name, whether it was a freak accident or a fool's errand. Perhaps Mu Wanying's problem would be known by her family, but he believed that this problem could be solved as long as he explained it well.
Facing these strange faces in front of him, he didn't bother to explain again. He casually said some perfunctory words and then pulled Bai Tao to leave the bowling alley.
"Brother Tan Xiu, shouldn't you be happy to have such a stunning beauty like Mu Wanying as your girlfriend? Why do I find that you're depressed? "Bai Tao finally noticed Tan Xiu's strange expression and asked in a low voice while walking.
"It's nothing." Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "I just didn't expect that Big Sis Tang Ying would take Mu Wanying to see my grandmother. Anyways, let's not talk about this anymore. You seem to be very interested in that fierce female coach of the swimming pool. Your eyes were shining when Qin Shaoyang talked about it. "
Bai Tao stared blankly for a moment before an awkward expression appeared on his face. He forced a smile and said, "I'm afraid that everyone in the Imperial Capital knows that I'm interested in Guo Tiantian. It's a pity that King Xiang is interested in her, but the goddess is heartless. Guo Tiantian's eyes are on top of her head. She doesn't like me at all. "
"You chased her?"
Asked Tan Xiu with a smile.
"Not only did I chase her, but I also used all kinds of martial arts, yet I couldn't even win the smile of that beauty." Bai Tao nodded.
"It can't be, right?" Tan Xiu was surprised. "You're already very good! Does she already have someone in her heart? "
"Absolutely not," said Bai Tao seriously. "I've investigated Guo Tiantian's social circle and family background. She doesn't associate with other men at all. Other than a few close friends, she usually squats in her mastiff's yard and doesn't step out of the door. "
Tan Xiu asked curiously, "Don't tell me she likes women?"
Bai Tao rolled his eyes and said snappily, "It's even more impossible for her to like women. I've already bribed her best friends, so I can prove that her sexual orientation is normal."
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "Since you've figured it out, don't be discouraged. If he couldn't catch up once, he couldn't catch up twice. If he couldn't catch up twice, he couldn't catch up ten times. One year was not enough to catch up with him in two years, and two years was not enough to catch up with him in ten years. You have to believe in this saying: As long as you work hard enough, you can grind a pestle into a needle. "
Bai Tao's eyes lit up as he nodded and exclaimed in admiration, "Brother Tan Xiu, your ability to pick up chicks is absolutely unprecedented and will never be surpassed in the future. I believe in you … "
"Strong your sister!"
Tan Xiu cursed in his heart.
Suddenly.
Bai Tao curiously asked, "I wanna know something. Since Mu Wanying has become your girlfriend, what about Ouyang Lulu? She loves you to the point that she's hovering between life and death. She almost emptied her family's assets from Jingmen Island just to run to Shanghai to be closer to you. You … you won't abandon her, will you? "
"I say, Bai Tao, can't we talk about other things besides women?" Tan Xiu said helplessly. "Do you still want to see the lover of your dreams? If not, then I'll go back to the bowling alley and accompany them to play, okay? "
"No, no, no. I won't mention it!"
Bai Tao grinned and pulled Tan Xiu.
After Tang Xiu followed Bai Tao to the swimming pool, he saw that there were only three girls in swimsuits swimming in the spacious swimming pool. Tan Xiu stopped at the entrance and looked at Bai Tao with an excited smile as he quickly walked inside.
"Hua …"
Water splashed everywhere as a streamlined girl with well-developed muscles appeared. Her appearance was very ordinary, but she was also very pleasing to look at. She held the handrail and climbed up to the shore.
Tan Xiu watched Bai Tao approach her with a flattering smile and then quietly turned away. He didn't leave directly since he still had to discuss the cooperation with Qin Shaoyang and Chu Yi. Instead, he returned to the leisure hall and asked the waiter to brew a pot of tea for him. He then sat alone in the rest area and sipped the tea while reading the fashion magazines on the bookshelf.
At the Tang Family's ancestral residence.
It was Mu Wanying's first time coming here. Her expression was a bit perturbed as she followed Tang Ying to the entrance. Her footsteps were getting slower and slower before she finally came to a complete stop.
"Wanying, what's wrong with you?"
Tang Ying sensed Mu Wanying's abnormality and turned around to ask.
"Sister Ying, let's just forget it!" Mu Wanying whispered. "Tan Xiu and I …"
Tang Ying grabbed Mu Wanying's wrist and pulled her inside while saying with a smile, "Don't worry, Wanying. An ugly daughter-in-law will have to see her parents-in-law sooner or later. Besides, not only are you not ugly, but you're also hailed as the first beauty in the Imperial Capital. I'm sure Grandma will like you. Don't worry! My uncle and aunt are in Star City. You can go with Tan Xiu when you see them. "
Mu Wanying wanted to tell Tang Ying that the relationship between her and Tan Xiu was not what everyone imagined. But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, it was somewhat difficult for her to say it. She braced herself and was pulled into the Tang Family's ancestral residence as she bumped into Tang Min, who just came out from the inside.
"Auntie!"
Tang Ying called out with a smile.
Tang Min gently nodded. Her eyes then fell on Mu Wanying as she said with a smile, "You must be the Mu Family's little princess, right? You're really like the rumors say, the first beauty in the Imperial Capital. "
Mu Wanying blushed and hurriedly lowered her head.
"Auntie, letting the first beauty in the Imperial Capital be your niece-in-law, you shouldn't have any objection, right? But I don't think you can stop it even if you have any objection. "
Niece-In-Law?
Tang Min blinked and looked at Mu Wanying again. Finally, she nodded with satisfaction and said, "Little Ning, you're good. You can even …"
"You're mistaken, Auntie," said Tang Ying quickly. "She's not my Big Brother's girlfriend, but Tan Xiu's. Hasn't Grandma been nagging all day, hoping that Tan Xiu will bring her a granddaughter-in-law? It took me a lot of effort to drag Wanying here today. "
Tang Min stared blankly for a moment and immediately looked surprised. Even the way she looked at Mu Wanying at this moment was different. It was … exceptionally cordial.
"You're Wanying, right? I never thought that my precious nephew would be so amazing. To think that he can find such a beautiful little girlfriend like you. Let's go. I was planning to go out to do something, but since you're here, I'll put it aside no matter how big it is. Let's go. I'll take you inside. I'm sure my Mom will be very happy. "
Mu Wanying was shaken after hearing it. She subconsciously turned her head and glanced back. She found that Tan Xiu didn't chase after her. She immediately looked forward to it, but was also somewhat worried. Recently, she and Tan Xiu had a very close relationship. She was the one who took the initiative. She couldn't figure out Tan Xiu's real thoughts. If Tan Xiu got angry because of this matter, then …
In the backyard.
Qin Changyue was sweeping the yard with a broom. Because her body suddenly became stronger, she looked like she was more than ten years younger. This made her feel very relaxed while sweeping the yard, and her mood was especially good.
"Mom, look who Little Ying brought."
Tang Min grabbed Mu Wanying's slender hand and came to the backyard. She then said with a smile.
Qin Changyue straightened her body and carefully looked at Mu Wanying. Then, she hesitantly said, "This girl is …"
"Hello, Grandma," called Mu Wanying hurriedly.
"She's Mu Wanying, Mom," said Tang Min with a smile. "She's the little princess of the Mu Family. Most importantly, she's also the girlfriend of your precious grandson, Tan Xiu. "
"What?"
Qin Changyue stared blankly for a moment before a pleasantly surprised look appeared on her face. She quickly put the broom aside and walked a few steps to Mu Wanying's front. She observed her from head to toe a few times and then repeatedly nodded with a smile on her face, saying, "Good, good, good. You're a very beautiful girl with a very good temperament. My precious grandson … is really good. He can even find such an excellent girlfriend. Wan … Wanying, right? Quickly come inside with Grandma … "
Mu Wanying could sense the joy in Qin Changyue's heart after Tang Min said that she was Tan Xiu's girlfriend. Instantly, her restless heart eased a little.
"Grandma, I delayed the work that my father gave me to bring you here." Tang Ying said with a smile. "You must protect me if he blames me!"
Qin Changyue happily said, "If your father dares to blame you, I'll fix him. Little Ying! You did a great job. Grandma is really happy. "
The last trace of worry in Tang Ying's heart vanished after hearing it. She happily said, "It's good that you're satisfied, Grandma. In order to bring Wanying over, I spent a lot of effort! Tan Xiu was supposed to come back with us, but he has some important things to discuss with his friends, so he asked me to bring Wanying back first. "
Qin Changyue excitedly nodded and praised Tang Ying a few times. She then held Mu Wanying's hand and went inside the house. Mu Wanying was a bit overwhelmed by her amiable appearance.
Tang Min was also greatly infected by her mother's happy expression. It was said that three women were like a drama. The three generations of the Tang Family and Mu Wanying got along with each other with their greatest enthusiasm, which made Mu Wanying feel a bit guilty.
After tangling in her heart for a long time, Mu Wanying finally took advantage of the time when Tang Min and Tang Ying went out. She didn't answer Qin Changyue's inquiry about her family for the time being and instead said with an apologetic expression, "Grandma, Big Sis Tang Ying and I are actually not Tan Xiu's boyfriend and girlfriend."
"What?"
The smile on Qin Changyue's face froze and her eyes turned a bit sluggish.
"As a matter of fact, Tang Xiu and I aren't really a couple," said Mu Wanying quickly. "We pretended to be a couple in front of outsiders because Tang Xiu wanted to help me and prevent other boys from harassing me. I'm really sorry, Grandma. I didn't mean it. Big Sis Tang Ying misunderstood me and Auntie Tang was so enthusiastic, so I … "
Qin Changyue finally came back to her senses. After hesitating for a moment, she squinted her eyes and asked, "Then tell me, do you like our family's Xiu?"
