♂?,,
Wu Ming is not a straw man, Yan Ruyu has a good impression of him. In fact, he can feel something more or less, it's just that he subconsciously doesn't want to face it.
The promise made is a debt owed. He's not one to make promises lightly, and most importantly, before recovering his memories and figuring out his identity, he doesn't dare make a promise of love to a woman.
What if he already has a wife? At that time, two women will be hurt, this is his worry.
A beauty is a gift from heaven, an angel. They are not toys for men to play with. If they want to flirt and have fun, that's okay, but playing with people's emotions is too cruel. If Yan Ruyu only wants to play with him, then he's willing to accompany her to the end.
But this woman seems to be playing for real! If she wasn't playing for real, why would she care about the empty words of a Jianghu master?
It's hard to repay the kindness of a beauty, what a nuisance! Wu Ming exhausted his mind to make Yan Ruyu smile, but ended up getting rebuffed. Yan Ruyu was gloomy all day long.
Wu Ming's cheerful and flirtatious expression made Yan Ruyu feel even more downhearted. Did this man just want to play with her? This kind of friend wasn't like a friend, this kind of lover wasn't like a lover, she had played enough of these ambiguous games, she wanted to take it further.
She recalled the time Wu Ming massaged her feet, his domineering eyes filled with gentleness, and how he helped her put on her coat with such gentle care. At that moment, she had already developed feelings for Wu Ming, but she never got the response she wanted.
Recalling what Master said, Yan Ruyu's heart became increasingly bitter. Was this man really not her true soulmate?
………………………………………………
At 5 pm, Wu Ming left the house in car No. 4, and he had to pay for his joke. All the way, he was nervous and held the 998 safe talisman tightly in his hand, hoping that all the gods would bless him to be safe and sound.
In Wu Ming's eyes, businessmen are all ruthless and merciless. Let a woman carry the scandal of being pregnant before marriage on TV, what would her parents think? They wouldn't welcome him with a smile when he comes to visit, would they?
In the midst of it all, Wu Ming seemed to have heard the sound of his cold and icy parents sharpening their knives!
Earlier, Wu Ming had agreed to meet Leng Bingbing at a certain location, but he arrived first and drove to the commercial street. He wanted to visit his elders first and thought it would be better to buy some gifts before going, especially since they were not very welcoming.
Leng Tianyou, a well-known business magnate in Huaxia. If ranked by personal assets, he wouldn't be considered among the top, but if ranked by family assets, his family owns 80% of the Leng's Conglomerate shares, making them one of the top two wealthy families in Huaxia.
Before going out, Wu Ming had already looked up some information about the Leng family and done his homework. As the saying goes, "know yourself and know your enemy", in order to... beg for mercy more effectively.
For a wealthy family like Leng's, sending gold, silver and jewels would not be impressive. If you want to impress them, you'd have to send a cruiser.
What to send is good? Wu Ming had long been thinking about it in his heart. This was a gift that people couldn't pick out, and to be precise, they didn't have time to pick out. For this gift, he was busy for almost an hour.
Leng Bingbing lived in a luxurious high-end community in the city center. When Wu Ming bought gifts and went to her home, he received her call instead. She was being stalked by reporters, so she asked Wu Ming to go directly to her parents' house.
That's it! What's the address?
Longkou New District, Qingshan Road, Tenglong Garden, I'm afraid Wu Ming doesn't know, she also emphasized another name 'Golden Forest', do you know the place?
Wu Ming was so scared that he almost drove the car onto the pedestrian path. He knew, too well, that there were only two intersections away from his home, and he drove back familiarly without seeing Yan Ruyi and others, who should have gone out to eat. Later, he carried a super-large sack and went out.
Xin walked up to the gate of Villa No. 18, and Wu Ming sneakily sized up the house. Except for the front door, the architectural style and layout inside were similar to his own place.
Wu Ming had been lingering outside the villa for over ten minutes when Chi Ying finally arrived in her Maserati, rolling down the window with a hint of surprise and asking, "Did you take a taxi here?"
Wu Ming felt a bit awkward and didn't dare look directly at Leng Bingbing, casually replying: "No, I came here on foot."
"Walk?" She raised an eyebrow, her expression indicating that she had no idea Wu Ming lived around here.
Then, Leng Bingbing drove the car into the villa and stopped in the yard. After getting out of the car, she patted the sack on Wu Ming's back and couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"
Wu Ming sighed and said: "I have come to offer my apologies."
"My parents have been waiting for a long time, come with me!" With a slight curl of her icy lips, she walked towards the villa with elegant steps, Wu Ming followed behind her honestly, like a follower.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the villa entrance, the door opened and a middle-aged woman with lingering charm came out to greet them, flashing a smile. "Ice has come back?" she said, then immediately shifted her gaze to Wu Ming and continued, "And this must be Little Wu?"
"This is my mom!"
Actually, no introduction is needed. Wu Ming, who had done his homework, already knew the elegant Ms. He Yue. Was she being friendly? Or was it a case of courtesy before conflict?
Wu Ming forced a smile and said: "Auntie, you look so young, just like General Cold's sister..."
Does it mean I'm very old? Cold as ice immediately released a killing aura, Wu Ming's flattery came to an abrupt end.
He Yuer hurriedly grabbed Wu Ming's hand, revealing a mother-in-law and son-in-law expression, smiling: "This is still the first time our family's Bing'er has brought a man home..."
"Coldly and irritably interrupting: 'It was them who asked me to bring him back, what does it have to do with me?'"
Just then, a loud and clear cough was heard, He Yuetian couldn't help but laugh, and quickly invited Wu Ming into the house, "Come in and talk, Bing'er's dad has been waiting for a long time."
Waiting for the door to close and let the dog out?
Wu Ming followed him in with a nervous expression, the decoration of the house was not as luxurious as he had imagined, but instead filled with modern style, a middle-aged man with a stern face sat on the sofa in the living room on the first floor.
It was the cold and icy father, Leng Tianyou. He wore a crisp suit, exuding an extraordinary aura, emitting an air of majesty, making it clear that he was a big shot who had been in power for a long time.
Such a serious expression, doesn't look easy-going?
Wu Ming scratched his head, walked up to him, slightly bowed and said: "Hello, Chairman Leng..." As he spoke, he quickly put down the sack on his back, opened it, and pulled out a large pile of gifts. "These are gifts for you and your wife."
Pots, bowls, basins, and jars, these are the ones that can be seen, and there are also some packaged in gift boxes. These are the gifts brought by Wu Ming, with over a hundred pieces. So many gift boxes, it will take a long time to unwrap them all. No one knows what's inside, so they can't pick and choose. Wu Ming's little abacus is clicking away rapidly.
Even her parents were stunned, was this Santa Claus?
She was taken aback for a moment, and He Yue first came back to her senses, pretending to blame: "This child is really too rude..." As she spoke, she waved her hand and called out: "Wang Ma, Lin Sao, come over and put the things away."
Two servants gathered up the gifts brought by Wu Ming. Leng Tianyou stared at him for a moment before saying seriously, "Sit down!" He then picked up the cup of water on the tea table and drank it slowly, continuing, "Do you know why I called you here?"
"I...I know!" Wu Ming stammered, and as he spoke, he sneaked a glance at the expressionless Leng Bingbing, his face gloomy as he continued: "I heard you're going to drown me in the Huangpu River to feed the turtles."
She rubbed her forehead with an icy hand, indicating a headache.
"Cough...cough..." Leng Tianyou was choked for a moment, his face turned bright red, and he shouted loudly: "Who said that?"
"We'll talk, I'm going to the kitchen with Bing'er..." He Yue smiled and then without saying another word, pulled Leng Bingbing from the sofa into the kitchen, leaving the space for the two men.
Wu Ming hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "What did you want to see me about today?"
"What's wrong with me?" Leng Tianyou glared at Wu Ming, scolding: "I only have one daughter, she inexplicably got pregnant, what can I do about it?"
"You also know that's fake... I was just joking."
Leng Tianyou's voice was as cold as a winter night. "Hmph! The media doesn't think so, and the people in the company don't think so either."
"I'll take responsibility for it, I can clarify with the media."
"This kind of thing can be explained clearly if it were to happen to ordinary people, but in our Cold family, even with a hundred mouths, it would be impossible to explain and would only get bigger and more troublesome..." Leng Tianyou's face twisted into a scowl as he intimidated, "Speak! How do you plan on taking responsibility?"
Wu Ming showed a resolute expression and said, "Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it."
"Great! You're quite responsible!" Leng Tianyou nodded in satisfaction and said, "Now I have a few questions to ask."
"You're welcome!"
………………………………………………………
What kind of people are your parents? Is your family background clean?
Has your ancestral tomb ever emitted a wisp of blue smoke? Has it produced any great figures?
Is there much property at home? Are there houses and fields? Is there inheritance right?
I heard he's an S-class bodyguard, can't even handle a situation like going up a knife mountain and down an oil pan?
Parents unknown, ancestral grave may have lost fire, big man is oneself, still has several hundred thousand deposits on hand, renting a house to live in, can go up the knife mountain, will peel off a layer of skin when going down the oil pot, will be cooked after a long time.
Digging to the root still can't figure out a reason, Leng Tianyou was extremely dissatisfied and scolded: "You can say that nothing is available, then what will you use to raise my daughter?"
Wu Ming scratched his head and asked: "Why should I raise a daughter? I'm not her father!"
Leng Tianyou glared at him: "You mean you don't want to take responsibility for my daughter?"
"What does this have to do with me being responsible?"
"What's wrong with that?" Leng Tianyou slapped his hand on the table and said, "Don't you want to marry Bing'er?"
"Of course I want to marry..." Wu Ming continued, then suddenly jumped up and shouted: "Why should I marry her?"
Leng Tianyou sneered, "You little scoundrel! You think you can just eat your fill and then walk away with a clean slate? What do you take the Leng family for? My daughter's reputation has been ruined by your hand. If I don't marry her, where will the honor of the Leng family be?"
"Wu Ming hastily explained: 'I and Leng Zong are clean and innocent, we don't have any relationship.'"
"But now it's unclear... " Leng Tianyou's voice rose again, "Will you marry or not?"
"I didn't say I was going to marry him." Leng Bingbing walked out of the kitchen and into the hall, chiming in at just the right moment to ease the awkward atmosphere that had settled over Wu Ming. Then He Yue hurriedly mediated, "Alright, dinner is ready, let's eat first and chat while we eat."
"Let's get this straight first, whether I'll marry or not." Leng Tianyou was very stubborn.
How did things become like this? Is this forced marriage now? Wu Ming gritted his teeth and said decisively: "I won't marry!"
"Dad! You said you wouldn't interfere with my marriage."
Leng Tianyou smiled suddenly, nodded his head in satisfaction and praised: "I was just helping to test him, if he answered directly that he would marry her, I would have driven him out long ago."
"Coldly and suspiciously asked: 'Why?'"
Leng Tianyou stood up, walked to his daughter's side, affectionately stroked her head and said in a warm voice: "I hope the man marries my daughter, not her family background."
"This is something we won't interfere with, we just want to be happy." He Yuet walked to her daughter's side, holding her hand and smiled: "First go eat, mom made your favorite steamed fish with green onions."
"Hmm!" A cold and icy nod, without saying a word.
It turned out that this forced marriage plot was actually a test of character, it's really pitiful for parents all over the world. Wu Ming revealed a wry smile, as if he had been entangled by an invisible thread.
"What's with the hesitation?" Leng Tianyou smiled and invited Wu Ming, "Come on over to eat, Auntie has been preparing for this meal all day."
Wu Ming rubbed his nose and followed into the dining hall.
