Chapter 166 I Haven't Gotten Nini Yet?
When Tan Zheng said this, Lu Fang and Tang Qin Yun exchanged a glance, then fell into a mutual silence for two minutes. Because Song Ni was angry, Tan Zheng had been given the cold shoulder for days, and his mood was at its worst, leaving him with no patience.
"Speak," Lu Fang shrugged, smiling and swirling the wine glass in his hand.
"Sister-in-law is a bit different from other women." Lu Fang had seen Song Ni's demure act in front of Tan Zheng, seen her ferocity when she made him deal with those who slandered her online, seen her courage in gambling and risking her life for Tan Zheng's dignity, seen her calm wisdom after being kidnapped. Tsk, a woman like this, even he had never encountered before. Song Ni's ability to be known in the circle as docile and sweet, and the fact that people of the younger generation knew not to provoke her easily, wasn't just because she was doted on by the Song family, but because of her conduct.
"So, I think pursuing Sister-in-law should be done in a special way." Tan Zheng naturally understood his little girl's uniqueness and looked at Tang Qin Yun with a frown. "Aren't you known as the man who can conquer any woman? You're out of ideas now?" Tang Qin Yun tore off a whole chicken leg, took a big bite, and mumbled.
"Haven't I not gotten Nini yet?" As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Qin Yun felt Tan Zheng's sharp and oppressive gaze, and the meat in his mouth was coughed out. He raised his hands in surrender. "I'm talking nonsense, but it's also the truth. How many times have I been to her house since I was a child? Has she ever looked me in the eye?" After speaking, Tang Qin Yun took a drink to calm his nerves and muttered. "Back then, I even wanted to use you to get closer to Nini." Tan Zheng exuded a low aura, clearly dissatisfied with Lu Fang and Tang Qin Yun's answers.
Tang Qin Yun finished the chicken leg and then half-reclined on the sofa, letting out a comfortable burp, his long legs dangling off the side of the sofa, swinging nonchalantly. "But now, Nini and I are much closer." Tan Zheng narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "What did you do when you went to Yu Cheng to find her?" Tang Qin Yun's swinging leg paused for a moment, then returned to its original position. "What else could I do? I went to celebrate her birthday." It was just teaching her to drive for a while, and teaching her your favorite cornering technique.
Tang Qin Yun suddenly touched his chin, deep in thought. Come to think of it, it seemed that after teaching Song Ni how to ride a motorcycle, her attitude suddenly changed. So, in the end, it was because of Tan Zheng that he became closer to Song Ni? Tang Qin Yun looked at Tan Zheng, seeing him worried because of Song Ni, a look he had never seen before. Precisely because he had never seen it, it showed that Tan Zheng truly cared about Song Ni. Thinking of the surprise Song Ni had prepared for Tan Zheng, Tang Qin Yun suddenly tsked. Did Tan Zheng even know how to love? Nini knew how to secretly learn to ride a motorcycle to give him a surprise, and he didn't even know why Nini was angry.
"Just her birthday?" Tang Qin Yun spread his hands and shrugged. "Otherwise? I only stayed for one day, watched her film for the whole day, had dinner, and then came back." Tan Zheng gave Tang Qin Yun a deep look and didn't ask any more questions. He wasn't in the mood to focus on Tang Qin Yun right now.
Lu Fang, on the other hand, suddenly had an idea. "Doesn't Sister-in-law like Hao Zi's singing very much? You can ask Hao Zi. Maybe he knows some ways to pursue girls that they like." Speaking of this, Tan Zheng realized that someone was missing from today's gathering and frowned. "Where is he?" Lu Fang rubbed his chin. As the boss and cousin of Lu Hao Ting, he actually cared very little about him, and rarely inquired about his schedule. "He's been busy with some variety show recently. Just call him directly." Lu Fang said, taking out his phone and dialing Lu Hao Ting. The other end seemed to be busy, and it took a long time to pick up. Lu Fang opened the speakerphone.
Lu Hao Ting seemed to be in a noisy place, with a cacophony of background noise. Tan Zheng, who had been playing with his lighter, suddenly paused when he heard a familiar voice and reached out to take Lu Fang's phone.
"Who's around you?" Lu Hao Ting, upon hearing Tan Zheng's question, began to stammer. "Tan... Brother Tan, I'm... I'm with staff!" Lu Hao Ting panicked and covered the phone's microphone, looking flusteredly at Song Ni, who had just rushed over. He pointed at the phone and silently called out to Brother Tan. Tan Zheng lowered his voice. "You know I don't like being lied to."
Lu Hao Ting was on the verge of tears. He wouldn't dare lie to Brother Tan, but he couldn't afford to offend Sister-in-law either. What a mess! Lu Hao Ting grabbed Song Ni's clothes, his face full of pleading. Song Ni also frowned. She had come to watch a competition, and after watching it, she had to fly back. She must have been heard by Tan Zheng just now. Song Ni pondered for a moment, still not intending to tell Tan Zheng that she was back. She pointed to the staff member who was controlling the scene. Lu Hao Ting immediately nodded. "Brother Tan... How would I dare to lie to you... I'm here! I'll be right there. Brother Tan... My agent is calling me, I have to go film. We'll talk later." With that, Lu Hao Ting hung up the phone at lightning speed. He panted. "It's over, it's over, Brother Tan seems to be suspicious."
Song Ni looked at Lu Hao Ting's appearance with amusement. "Are you that afraid of him?" Lu Hao Ting patted his chest and glared at Song Ni with a defiant look. "You don't know what happened when I skipped class to watch their competition and was caught by Brother Tan. I was beaten up." Lu Hao Ting still felt a lingering fear thinking about it. "Brother Tan almost beat me into a cripple."
Song Ni raised an eyebrow. "Isn't that an exaggeration?" "But he made me attend classes for a week with injuries on my face. It was so embarrassing. How could he specifically hit my face? I have such a good-looking face." Listening to the resentment in Lu Hao Ting's tone, Song Ni only found it amusing. Given Lu Hao Ting's meticulous nature, hitting his face would indeed be more effective than hitting other parts. "Alright, I only said one sentence just now. He might not have recognized it. I'm going back after watching the performance anyway. He won't catch you."
"What if he does?" "What if something happens? I'll back you up. What are you afraid of?" This seemed reasonable, and Lu Hao Ting relaxed considerably. "But Sister-in-law, you've finally come back. Aren't you going to see Brother Tan? Even meeting him once is fine. Don't you miss him?" Song Ni's expression paused slightly. Miss him? Of course, she did. But this scoundrel had made her too angry, and she hadn't calmed down yet. "Oh, I'm angry with him. I don't want to see him right now."
Lu Hao Ting looked curious, as if he had heard something new. "What did Brother Tan do to make Sister-in-law so angry?" Song Ni suddenly reached out and patted his head. "Why are you talking so much? Hurry up and take me in." Lu Hao Ting: ... How is it that in high school he was beaten by Brother Tan, and now as an adult he's being hit by Brother Tan's wife? Did he owe the Tan family in his past life?
