Chapter 537: Chapter 536: Sudden
"Master, isn’t this a bit abrupt?" Wang Xiaohua hesitated; after all, she was still somewhat unwilling.
Wang Dahai smiled and said, "Xiaohua, just put your mind at ease. Since I’ve chosen to entrust my precious daughter to him, then he surely has the capability. Don’t worry and just entrust yourself to him!"
"Master, then how do you plan to introduce him to me?" Wang Xiaohua asked curiously.
"That... I’ll keep it a secret for now. I’ll tell you when the time is right," Wang Dahai said with a smile, teasing her with a bit of mystery.
"Well then, Master, please go ahead with your busy schedule, I’m heading back!"
"Alright, be careful on your way."
"Mmm! And you should hurry home and rest too!"
Wang Dahai left with a cheerful laugh.
Watching Wang Dahai walk away, Wang Xiaohua sighed and muttered to herself, "Master, you’re really too muddled. You already have such a beautiful wife, yet you go and mess with Liu Zheng! With your status, wealth, and power, why would you want to befriend someone like him?"
However, upon further thought, she herself was wealthy, so why couldn’t she be friends with Liu Zheng? Her own background was quite miserable, and if it hadn’t been for Wang Dahai, she might have already starved to death on the streets.
Thus, she cast aside the resentment in her heart.
With this thought, she went back inside the house and took a bath.
The next day, she woke up early.
She combed her hair and glanced at herself in the mirror.
Ever since she had become a Cultivator, her appearance had changed greatly. Her skin had become much fairer, and although she was not stunningly beautiful, she was now far prettier than before.
A faint sense of pride arose in her heart. At that moment, she felt as though she was no longer the same person as before.
She changed into a clean set of clothes and then headed out.
By the time she left the house, it was already noon. Instead of going to the company, she headed straight to the suburban area to find Liu Zheng’s residence.
This was a common rural courtyard in the outskirts of the city, where the houses were built of brick and tile, with not many high-rise buildings.
The environment here was still decent, but she felt that the space was too cramped to accommodate her, and, moreover, if Liu Zheng lived here, he was definitely going to be bullied by others.
Thinking this, she quickened her pace towards the rural courtyard.
When she reached the outside of the courtyard, she knocked on the door.
Soon, a female voice asked from inside, "Who is it?"
"Hello, do you have a boy named Liu Zheng at home?" Wang Xiaohua asked.
"Liu Zheng is a relative of our family. He got drunk last night and hasn’t woken up yet today. If you have something for him, you can tell him when he wakes up!" said the girl, and she promptly hung up.
"What the heck, so rude! Humph! I couldn’t care less about you!" Wang Xiaohua muttered to herself, then turned and left.
Back in her car, Wang Xiaohua began to think about how to introduce Liu Zheng to Wang Dahai.
After long contemplation, she eventually decided to resort to the most foolish method, finding a matchmaker and proposing marriage.
"Ouch!"
As she was absorbed in these thoughts, her stomach suddenly began to hurt.
"This isn’t good!"
Wang Xiaohua hastily opened the car door and got out.
She felt like her period had come, and it was extremely fierce.
"Could it really be such a coincidence?"
She felt a bit embarrassed, but since she didn’t dare to go to the hospital, she endured the discomfort and ran to a nearby pharmacy. After buying a pack of sanitary pads, she hurried back to the car and began to eat them hastily.
After eating the sanitary pads, she felt a bit more comfortable.
At that moment, an idea struck her, and she took out her phone again to send a message to Liu Zheng.
"Hey, Liu Zheng, my dad is hosting a dinner tonight; make sure you come too. My brother will be there as well, and dad says you might be my future brother-in-law, so you must attend, got it? No matter what, it’s all from the goodness of my dad’s heart."
After sending the message, Wang Xiaohua breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that there shouldn’t be any issues tonight.
But what she never expected was that just as she got back into the car and was about to start it, her phone vibrated. A message appeared on the screen, causing Wang Xiaohua to stare in horror at the message.
"Fuck, is Liu Zheng really going to meet the parents?"
Seeing the message, Wang Xiaohua imagined a terrible scenario in her mind.
"What to do? What can I do?" She paced back and forth anxiously in the car.
The more anxious she became, the more the message sounded incessantly like a death knell.
Finally, she couldn’t contain herself any longer and picked up her phone to read the message.
When she saw this message, Wang Xiaohua almost fainted. It was a text from Wang Dahai to Liu Zheng.
"Have you already introduced him to my family?" Wang Xiaohua trembled as she stared at the message.
"What to do? What to do?"
"What should I do? I can’t lose him!"
"No! I absolutely can’t lose him!"
Wang Xiaohua’s face turned instantly pale; she clutched her phone tightly, her eyes brimming with intense sadness and despair.
"Wuu wuu wuu..."
She finally burst into tears.
After crying, her face was full of sadness, but even more so, helpless.
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was Liu Zheng calling.
"Hello, Xiaoxin, come to my house now! I’m at home."
Liu Zheng’s voice came through the other end of the phone.
"I..." Wang Xiaohua hesitated.
"Didn’t we agree you’d introduce me to your dad?" Liu Zheng urged from the other end of the phone.
"Then..." Wang Xiaohua bit her lip and, in the end, made up her mind, "I’ll be right there!"
Wang Xiaohua drove her car like a whirlwind to the outskirts of the city, then arrived at Liu Zheng’s farmhouse.
"Xiaoxin, you’re here?"
"Yeah."
Liu Zheng looked at her and laughed, "You were crying in the car just now, weren’t you?"
"No... no, I wasn’t." Wang Xiaohua shook her head.
"Hahaha!" Liu Zheng suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?"
"I’m laughing at how silly you are, rushing over to propose to my family without even understanding the situation. Do you think you’re too good for me and want to find a tall, rich, and handsome guy to dump me?" Liu Zheng said with playful mockery.
"Who said I was here to propose to you? I certainly don’t fancy marrying you."
"If you’re not marrying me, why did you leave me a message? I already know; you wanted me to go to Uncle Wang’s house to meet him and propose to him, right?" Liu Zheng said with a sneer.
"No... that’s not it... I... I was worried you might get cheated!"
"Isn’t that concern for me, hahaha, but now I can tell you, you don’t need to worry anymore."
"Why?" Wang Xiaohua’s eyes widened.
"Because who am I?" Liu Zheng said proudly.
"What do you mean?"
"Because I am Uncle Wang’s only direct nephew, how could he possibly cheat me?"
"But you are after all a poor man..."
"Hehe, this is our Wang family’s speciality, just with me alone, I could step Wang Dahai underfoot; what is he in comparison."
"So what are you going to do?"
