On Sunday, Tang Shaofeng rested at home. When it was eight in the morning, he opened up the financial news on time, held a cup of coffee in his hands and calmly sat on the sofa in the living room.

When he saw the eye-catching title, "The Mysterious Investor Appears in Zhenjiang", he knew that his plan was already halfway there.

Although Xiao Muting wanted to sell the company, Shang Ting Group was, after all, someone who had single-handedly created the company. He was sure that Xiao Muting would choose a very promising consortium for Shang Ting instead of acting as he pleased.

Then, the "Li Rui" that he had purposely arranged to appear at this time would definitely attract Xiao Muting's attention.

Sure enough, on the television screen, many of his business friends were fighting with Rui en and Li. Among them, there was the figure of Xiao Muting.

With an evil smile, Tang Shaofeng turned off the television with an ice-cold expression and said faintly with an indifferent face: "When you return to the situation where you have nothing left to offer, you will know the price that you will have to pay if you continue to covet things that do not belong to you …"

Lowering his eyes, he realized that Xia Wan was about to wake up, so he got up and went upstairs.

Stopping at the door, he saw Xia Wan's confused expression and looked around. Then, with a smile, he walked to his side and pampered her, "Why don't you sleep a little more?"

Shaking his head, Xia Wan complained: "You have been home resting everyday, and you are still so drowsy, it is not good for your body."

With a light laugh, Tang Shaofeng pointed at Xia Wan's nose and said, "It's rare, but did the lazy bug change its nature?"

With a blushing face, she rolled her eyes at Tang Shaofeng, who naturally stretched out both of his arms. "I want to go to the toilet."

"Alright." Let Xia Wan hug his neck, Tang Shaofeng carried him to the bathroom, then waited in a gentleman's manner at the door.

After Xia Wan finished washing her face and rinsing her mouth, the two of them went downstairs together. Xiao Hui had already brought breakfast over to the table.

"Ah, why are you all up so early? "I'm not going to sleep for long either." Holding the milk in her hand, Xiao Hui chided with a smile.

"You're still talking about it? Xia Wan is bored to death staying at home, and it just so happens that you and Dad have nothing to do today. Let's go out for an outing, shall we?" After placing Xia Wan on a chair, Tang Shaofeng took the milk Xiao Hui had given her and carefully pushed it in front of Xia Wan's eyes.

Having already gotten used to Tang Shaofeng's care, Xia Wan started to eat her breakfast in a good mood. She was very interested in the idea of going out for a vacation, "Where are you going to play? Would it be inconvenient for me to go out like this? "

After helping Xia Wan wipe the crumbs from the corner of her mouth, Tang Shaofeng's smile was even more eye-catching than the sunlight outside the window: "With me here, are you still worried about that?"

Although shy, Xia Wan lowered her eyes and did not say anything, in her heart she knew that Tang Shaofeng was not lying at all.

As long as the other party was by her side, she didn't need to worry about anything. Sometimes, with just a look, Tang Shaofeng would be able to understand her needs.

"Hello, may I ask if you are Mr. Tang Tang Shaofeng? I have a express for you here. " When the family was having their meal happily, the courier appeared without any warning and looked at everyone with an inquiring gaze.

With a slight frown, Tang Shaofeng stood up and walked out, "Who sent this?"

"Mr. Xiao Xiao Muting."

As soon as the courier said those words that he did not mind, Tang Shaofeng's footsteps paused, and his face immediately became ugly.

As for Xia Wan and the rest, their expressions were different, the atmosphere in the room instantly became quiet and oppressive.

The cold voice laughed, and Tang Shaofeng's sinister expression seemed to say: Xiao Muting has guts, to actually have the guts to openly provoke him.

Not knowing what he had said was wrong, the courier looked around in shock. He could not hold on to what he was holding in his hands.

"What else did he say?"

Seeing Tang Shaofeng's forceful gaze, the courier swallowed a mouthful of saliva and his voice suddenly became softer, "Um … Mr. Xiao said that this is a congratulatory gift for your wife's pregnancy. You must ask her to open it herself and advise you not to be petty. "

After snatching away the item in the courier's hand, Tang Shaofeng's face turned green, and his clear eyes revealed deep hatred and anger.

Taking a deep breath, the courier quickly ran out of the yard.

They had met this kind of "greetings" early in the morning, especially the words that Xiao Muting had passed on to the courier. Xiao Hui and the others were completely disheartened.

After placing down the tableware, Xia Wan lowered her head, looking like she had done something wrong.

Seeing that, Xiao Hui could only sigh, using her palm to lightly pat Xia Wan's shoulder, indicating that she did not need to blame herself.

She believed that Xia Wan did not intend to get entangled with Xiao Muting, it was just that Xiao Muting was not willing to give up on one side.

"Shaofeng, throw that thing away. We don't lack anything, so there's no need for him to worry." He was afraid that Tang Shaofeng would be angry or quarrel with him, so after Xiao Hui finished pacifying him, she quickly tried to resolve the situation.

Hearing that, Tang Shaofeng did not take Xiao Hui's suggestion, but instead, sat down beside the tea table with a gloomy expression.

Tossing the sealed paper bag on the table, his eyes were fixed on the contents of the bag, as if he were trying to figure out what was inside.

Seeing that, Xiao Hui and Tang Zhenhua looked at each other, not knowing what to say to ease the atmosphere.

Just as Tang Shaofeng was about to open the paper bag, Xiao Muting's words suddenly came back to his ears.

His eyes grew gloomy and cold, he stood up and handed over the express delivery to Xia Wan.

Xia Wan looked back at the other party in confusion. Seeing the obvious anger in Tang Shaofeng's eyes, she couldn't reach out to catch it.

"He said he wanted you to open it yourself, so you should do it."

At this moment, the Quick Recorder turned into a ticking time bomb. No one knew what was in it, but they were sure of one thing: Xiao Muting's bad intentions.

Hearing Tang Shaofeng's cold tone, Xia Wan did not dare to reply, she only lowered her head silently.

"Little Feng, if you want to see it, then open it yourself." Noticing the fear in Xia Wan's eyes, Xiao Hui's gaze anxiously hinted to her not to scare the other party.

But Tang Shaofeng acted as if he did not hear, as though he was secretly competing with Xiao Muting.

It was just a express delivery. Was he really as narrow-minded as the other party had described?

In the end, Xia Wan accepted it after hesitating for a while. She thought to herself: No matter what's inside, it's best if I finish reading as soon as possible.

Thus, under Tang Zhenhua and Xiao Hui's curious gazes, under Tang Shaofeng's vigilance from eating, the fast food was finally opened by Xia Wan.

Who would have thought that there were no valuable items inside, nor were there any pieces of paper that Xiao Muting had sent over, instead, there were a few photos stacked on the back of his hand.

Xia Wan turned the photo over in confusion. The moment she saw it clearly, her heart sank and she felt like she was drowning.

Her heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife, and a dejected expression appeared on her face.

With a flick of his finger, the photo fell to the ground.

Seeing Xia Wan's strange reaction, Xiao Hui who was not able to see clearly immediately picked it up, Tang Shaofeng also turned his head to look.

When both of their eyes were fixated on the scene of Tang Shaofeng and the beautiful woman entering the hotel with their arms wrapped around each other's shoulders, it seemed as if the air had stopped moving, the living room was in complete silence.

"This …" Xiao Hui wanted to say something, but she hesitated. When she saw Xia Wan's pale white face, she could not help but look at her son with a critical gaze.

Seeing that, Tang Zhenhua who had no idea what was going on walked over to Xiao Hui's side, upon seeing the first photo, she threw a slap towards Tang Shaofeng's face, "Bastard! "What's going on!?"

Tightly pursing his lips, Tang Shaofeng worriedly glared at Xia Wan, and then explained calmly: "Father, it's not what you think it is, nothing happened between me and that girl."

But Tang Shaofeng's explanation was obviously not as convincing as the photo.

After all, even the date was clearly marked on the photo, and he could not avoid the guilt of trying to cover it up.

"They went to get a room, but nothing happened?" Xia Wan suddenly said, as she looked at Tang Shaofeng with pain and suspicion, and a bitter smile that was extremely sarcastic was formed on the corner of her mouth. (TL: UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU)

"Xia Wan, listen to my explanation! I really didn't have anything to do with her. I was too drunk and a little out of sorts. I was out of the hotel in less than a minute! "Can you trust me?" 's mocking smile stung his eyes, causing him to reveal a look of panic, his eyes full of unease and regret.

A cold snort came from the nose. Xia Wan retracted her gaze, as if she was too lazy to spare Tang Shaofeng another glance.

Seeing that Xia Wan did not believe Tang Shaofeng, Xiao Hui immediately looked at him.

Tang Zhenhua glared at Tang Shaofeng angrily, then consoled him in a gentle tone: "Xia Wan, Xiao Feng is not such a casual person. "You don't believe him, and you don't believe your uncle either?"

Xia Wan's eyes were filled with tears, but she stubbornly refused to show any signs of weakness.

She slowly turned her head and asked with a sad expression, "Uncle, how can I trust you?"

Hearing Xia Wan's question, Tang Zhenhua was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, just as Xia Wan had said, the other party knew nothing about Tang Shaofeng in the past.

Thus, no matter how much he tried to defend Tang Shaofeng, he would always appear pale and powerless, as if he was trying to side with his.

Seeing that Tang Zhenhua was unsure, Xiao Hui frowned as he looked at the date on the photo again. Then, he pulled Xia Wan's hand and said: "Xiao Wan, don't you notice the date on the photo? He went out to borrow wine to pour out his sorrows, so there was no harm in it. "I know my son very well, he is not a courtesan. Otherwise, why would he guard you? Wouldn't it be better if he didn't get married?"

Not listening to Xiao Hui's explanation, Xia Wan only knew that she broke a leg, while Tang Shaofeng ran out to seek pleasure.

Her mind was in a mess and she needed to be alone. She was not sure if Tang Shaofeng was dishonest, or if he was loyal to the marriage before.

Therefore, she took out the hand that Xiao Hui was holding, and with a face filled with grief and grief, she said, "Auntie, I'm tired. I want to rest, can you help me clean up my storage room?"

Before Xiao Hui could agree, Tang Shaofeng had already taken a few steps forward, and wanted to carry Xia Wan back to his bedroom.

Pushing Tang Shaofeng's large palm away, Xia Wan's expression was filled with contempt, but a trace of disgust could be seen in her eyes, "Stay away from me!"

Being suppressed by Xia Wan's actions, Tang Shaofeng's figure paused for a moment. His expression stiffened and boundless hatred for Xiao Muting gushed out of his eyes.
