Chapter 484 (2/2)
_My place is not a hotel, girl!_
Tang Xiu could only groan inside. He waved his hand and said, “Feel free to pick a room. Anyways, I’m going to class tomorrow, so I’ll rest first.”
“All right!” Mu Wanying picked up the stuff from the big bag and headed to the room where Tang Xiaojing and the other five were staying.
The next morning, Tang Xiu went to the campus. At noon, he then rushed and arrived at the address written on the invitation. To his astonishment, Paradise Manor encompassed a large area and was located at a very good geographical environment. The location was only 20 kilometers away from Shanghai University.
The site had been decorated with lanterns and colorful festoons. It was full of festivity.
By the time Tang Xiu arrived there, he found that the large parking was already full, many of which were luxury cars. Before riding the sightseeing vehicle that was specially arranged to welcome guests to the buildings shaped in 品 formation, Tang Xiu secretly sighed at the astuteness of the designer.
The three buildings were three floors high each. One of which had an antique flavor, a pagoda-like pavilion, and a modern european-style one. The pagoda-like pavilion stood erect at the back in the middle, while the vast majority of guests had gathered on the fountain square outside this pavilion.
Tang Xiu took a glance around and found that there was no one he was acquainted with, so he walked inside. He saw Ouyang Lulu greeting several guests in the pavilion hall, so he just waved at her and proceeded further inside. There was a good seating spot in the corner, so he took a seat on the sofa and started fiddling with his phone.
_Ugh, this guy is really…_
Upon seeing what Tang Xiu was doing, Ouyang Lulu couldn’t help but feel edgy inside. After greeting a few guests, she strode toward him and resentfully said, “How can you be so idle? Come with me to greet the guests!”
“Huh?” Tang Xiu confused. “I’m not the Boss nor am I the manager. Why must I greet the guests? Besides, I don’t even know them.”
“This Paradise Manor will be my dowry later,” said Ouyang Lulu indignantly.
“What does your dowry have anything to do with me, anyway?” Asked Tang Xiu bluntly.
Ouyang Lulu patted her forehead, and then sat next to Tang Xiu. She pulled his arm and said, “This Ouyang Lulu has set her eyes way too high, and you are the only one who can enter my eyes; thus, my future husband will be you! So, this Paradise Manor will also be your property. Therefore, you must follow me and welcome the guests, and then I will introduce you to each of them.”
Tang Xiu’s face sank as he pushed Ouyang Lulu’s hand and retorted, “Lulu, I think of you as a friend, so stop joking. I’ve already told you that I won’t talk about having a woman for the next few years. The matter of having a wife who will bear a child for me is far from what I have in mind. You know very well about my disposition, so I hope you can stop here.”
A bit of disappointment flashed inside Ouyang Lulu’s eyes, and was feeling quite uncomfortable inwardly. Yet, she still seriously replied, “Look, I’m not joking with you. Even if I don’t introduce you to the others today, you must still become my husband in the future. You say you don’t want to talk about having a woman right now, so I’ll be waiting for you. Even if you say you’ll take another woman to bear a child for you in the future, I’ll still be waiting for you. I, Ouyang Lulu, can afford to wait, even if we both have grown old and our hairs have gone white.”
“You…”
Tang Xiu was unable to utter any words regarding this type of dog skin plaster.
Holding Tang Xiu’s hand yet again, Ouyang Lulu said, “What are you, you, and me, me, huh? Don’t tell me you feel don’t the need to take responsibility after you have stolen my heart, huh? I don’t care. Shortly put, you will be Ouyang Lulu’s man. My property will be your property, and I’ll give them to you if you want it now. If you want them in the future, then in the future I’ll give them to you.”
Suddenly, her eyes turned and she talked in a low voice, “That’s right, this is my property. If you feel that it’s not enough, the Ouyang Family will have to give a lot of dowries in the future. In time to come I can help you in many essential things. For example, the Ouyangs are a wealthy family.”
Tang Xiu was at a loss whether he had to cry or laugh. Suddenly, a famous saying whose essence was truth in itself coming from the ancestors sprung inside his mind: A maiden who goes out of her family to get married is akin to something that has lost and cannot be retrieved again. And this girl, she was truly heading out and intended to go!
_If I were to have such a daughter later, I might as well choke her to death and forget about her,_ An absurd and ridiculous thought suddenly popped up inside Tang Xiu’s mind.
“Boss, several city leaders have come,” said a well-dressed middle-aged woman.
“Tang Xiu, are you really not willing to welcome the guests with me?” Asked Ouyang Lulu.
“No, I won’t go!” Tang Xiu shook his head and firmly answered.
While loosening his arm, Ouyang Lulu helplessly said, “I won’t insist and force you since you don’t want to go. Manager Huang, keep an eye on him; don’t let him slip away. And bring him to me when the time to cut the ribbon comes. Do remember that he’s the highest Boss in this Paradise Manor. His orders are more effective and imperative than mine.”
“Boss, have you made a mistake? He…” Manager Huang replied with an incredulous expression.
“No, I’m not making a mistake. I know what I’m talking about,” said Ouyang Lulu firmly, “He will soon be my, Ouyang Lulu’s boyfriend. He will become Ouyang Lulu’s husband in the future, and then he will also be the biological father of my children.”
Manager Huang stared at Tang Xiu with a queer expression, and then looked at Ouyang Lulu. Her mouth twitched a few times before she nodded and said, “I understand.”
