Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 2154: Chapter 2355: Burn the Bridge After Crossing the River!!!

Although she had dated boyfriends before, she had never been this close. Hao Jian was holding her waist and speaking right by her ear, this kind of intimacy she had never experienced before, and she was momentarily left baffled by Hao Jian. She never expected Hao Jian to be so bold, daring to treat her in such a way.

Of course, her first reaction was not to resist because her body went soft. Her dad was reading the newspaper and didn’t notice what was happening, while her mom was cutting fruit. Having some fruit after a meal aids in digestion and taste, but when she came out with the platter of fruit, she saw her daughter and Hao Jian hugging.

Straight away, her face blushed. It wasn’t that she hadn’t experienced such things before, but now, not being young anymore, she was a little surprised to see the young couple so full of energy. She took a few steps back and went away, coming back only when the two separated.

Li Weiwei turned around and found that Hao Jian was still holding her waist. Her face blushed immediately, and she pushed him away with her hand. Despite being pushed away, Hao Jian was still smiling, not saying anything, as he approached Li Weiwei’s dad. It was time for a good exchange with her dad.

Under usual circumstances, she would have already gone over to give Hao Jian a beating, after all, she was a teacher, and Hao Jian was her student. How dare he do such a rebellious thing? With such a relationship, if he dared to do this now, what would come of it in the future?

This was probably her first time experiencing such a thing, her cheeks slightly red and her body weak, leaving her no strength to deal with Hao Jian. It was only when Hao Jian had already walked over to her dad that she came to her senses, but it was too late, so she had to secretly fume and then turn around to the bathroom to splash her face with water to wake up.

Hao Jian sat down, and as Li Weiwei’s dad saw him coming over, he put down the newspaper in his hand. Hao Jian said, "Uncle, you like to keep up with international news too?"

Li Weiwei’s dad, seeing him cater to his interests, smiled and said, "Yes! Although I’m old and not of much use now, I still need to pay attention to national affairs, don’t I? Otherwise, I’d have nothing to do all day, and that would be too boring!"

Hao Jian smiled and said, "I see you’ve got a lot of newspapers piled up here, is it a habit of yours to collect them?"

Li Weiwei’s dad was a bit surprised by Hao Jian’s observation, noticing even the small details, so he said, "Just a little hobby of mine."

Hao Jian heard this, his face breaking into a smile. He remembered he had quite a few old newspapers, many from a long time ago with very limited prints. If they were useless to him, but held precious value for Li Weiwei’s dad, who loved collecting them, wouldn’t that be wonderful?

So he smiled and said, "Uncle, I have some old newspapers at home. If you like collecting them, I can bring them over for you."

Li Weiwei’s dad was visibly pleased upon hearing this, much like an art enthusiast hearing about a rare painting somewhere. Though merely minor, after pausing to steady himself, he said, "I shouldn’t take away something others like, Little Hao, you should keep them."

The reason Hao Jian had a bunch of old newspapers was simply due to an accident, he himself had no interest in them at all. Giving them away wouldn’t cause him any loss or regret. He said, "They’re just sitting there unused, it’s better to give them to you, Uncle, to make the most of their value and use."

"They’re all newspapers from the nineties, and some might even be damp. I’ve kept them without any management. If given to Uncle, you’ll probably have to do some sorting first," Hao Jian said.

When Li Weiwei’s dad heard they were newspapers from the nineties, his face immediately lit up with a strange glow, clearly surprised and amazed. Even someone as composed as him couldn’t contain his excitement, a fiery gleam flickering in his eyes.

Seeing this, Hao Jian realized that his words had piqued his interest, and quickly said, "Then I’ll bring them over next time I come."

Earlier, Li Weiwei’s dad had been a bit reserved, but knowing that the newspapers were from the nineties, his face no longer showed reluctance, only uncontainable excitement.

For any collector, the older the item usually, the better, and the same goes for newspapers. The oldest newspaper he had was from the early 2000s, and that was collected with difficulty. Although it was without cost, it held sentimental value; for those who enjoyed collecting newspapers, these were priceless.

And Hao Jian suddenly saying he would give him a batch of nineties newspapers—that... filled him with excitement, akin to a treasure expert suddenly finding a million-dollar artifact. Earlier, he could restrain his emotions, but now it was unstoppable, and even he felt a ripple in his heart.

He looked at Hao Jian and said, "Alright, thank you very much."

Hao Jian replied, "Not at all, they’re just sitting with me unused, if left for too long they might get spoiled. But giving them to you, Uncle, will bring out their fullest value."

Hao Jian said this with a smile, and Li Weiwei’s dad also smiled. He now felt that this young man was really quite good, not to mention his qualified appearance—tall, handsome, polite, and talented, and he could even cook up a good meal, which was impressive. Owning newspapers from the nineties, it suggested a related interest in this area. Otherwise, who would keep useless newspapers for so long?

The reason Hao Jian said so was probably to make him feel more comfortable accepting them. Catering to interests, having shared hobbies and topics, had raised his impression of Hao Jian several notches.

Regarding this, now when he looks at Hao Jian, everything seems pleasing to the eye. He feels that the boyfriend his daughter has this time is truly good, flawless, and it would be best if they could stay together and then get married. That way, he and her mom would have one less thing to worry about.

Just then, Weiwei’s mom came over with a plate of fruit, put it on the table, and said, "Here, have some fruit."

Hao Jian didn’t hold back, went over, and started eating the fruit. Weiwei’s dad was in a good mood, so he also started eating fruit. The three of them were eating fruit and chatting in the living room. And just as Weiwei finished washing her face and came out to clear her head, she saw Hao Jian laughing and chatting with her parents, and she was not happy about it.

She calmed her nerves a bit, then ran straight over to the three of them, grabbed Hao Jian’s hand, and started dragging him outside, saying to her parents, "Mom, Dad, Hao Jian has work stuff to busy with, we’re leaving now, see you!"

"Leaving already?" Weiwei’s mom was a bit surprised, as it was just after dinner.

Weiwei kept pulling Hao Jian while saying, "Yes, leaving now."

Seeing this, Hao Jian turned back and said to her parents, "Uncle, I’ll bring that newspaper next time I come over, and... Auntie, thanks for the hospitality..."

Before Hao Jian could finish, Weiwei had already dragged him out of the door, "Bang!" the door was shut, and the two of them were standing outside.

"What nonsense did you say? Bringing my dad a newspaper? What do you mean?" As soon as the door was closed, Weiwei looked at Hao Jian with a puzzled expression.

Hao Jian chuckled and said, "Our dad loves collecting newspapers, and I just happen to have some, so I’ll bring them along next time."

"Our dad?" Upon hearing this, Weiwei’s face changed. She grabbed Hao Jian and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, do you believe I won’t break your legs!"

Hao Jian didn’t expect Weiwei to have such a temper, threatening to break people’s legs at the drop of a hat, and said, "Yes, our dad. Aren’t we supposed to be acting? If we’re acting, then we need to have some professional spirit, strong immersion, and of course, refer to him as ’our dad.’ And... you’d break my legs? Try it, if you dare to touch me, I’ll go in there and explain everything, that we’re just acting, but your mom might pressure you to get married!"

Hao Jian spoke with such vigor that at first Weiwei still looked angry, but later, no matter how angry she was, she had to hold her temper, just staring at him without saying a word.

Hao Jian then put on a cheeky grin and said, "See, you’re still reluctant to touch me, which means you still care about me."

"You..." Weiwei was about to take action, raising her hand.

Hao Jian brazenly pointed to his face and said, "Go ahead, hit me if you dare!"

Weiwei’s hand came down, but halfway through she withdrew it, looking pained.

"Get lost!" Weiwei finally uttered those two words.

Hao Jian, upon hearing it, could only shake his head helplessly, saying, "Ah! Women! Their ability to burn bridges is something!"

"I didn’t burn any bridges!" Weiwei said.

Hao Jian chuckled and said, "Isn’t this burning bridges? It’s all over, and you’re driving me away, ah..."

By the end, Hao Jian let out a few more sighs.

Weiwei didn’t know what to say now. She really did hate Hao Jian’s behavior today, but when it came to burning bridges, she didn’t want to be that kind of person either.
