Chapter 26 The Gift
Yao Cen’s mood was complicated, and she showed a stiff smile, “Just go back to your work.”
Mai Yaqin nodded and walked out quickly.
After Mai Yaqin went out, Yao Cen took out her phone and read the news once again. For a period of time, her mind went blank. For some reason, she felt bad inside.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
She had indeed seen the pretty girl. That was the banquet the day before yesterday. She was Song Zhenhai’s granddaughter. She couldn’t help but compare the two of them in her mind.
For a man, she simply had the lethal and youthful attraction of a twenty-year old.
When it came to their families, of course, the Song family’s strength was obvious in this city, and the Yao family was not even remotely as eminent…
Something suddenly occurred to her and she gave her cheek a gentle pat.
Why was I comparing myself to her, she thought to herself.
Did I have to feel jealous for her? For this loser?
This was ridiculous. I couldn’t wait to divorce him!
So the bastard was showing off that girl’s car yesterday?
She turned off her phone and slapped it hard on the table. Her curvy breasts rose and fell nonstop.
Meanwhile, Xiao Shun was meditating in his room. Suddenly he felt a tickle in his nose and he sneezed.
His phone rang and he glanced at it. It was an unknown number.
“Master Xiao, I’m Wang Feng, I’m outside your house, could you please come out for a while?”
“Anything wrong?”
“You’ll know when you come.” Wang Feng said mysteriously.
Xiao Shun hung up the phone, changed his clothes and hurried out the door.
Soon, he met Wang Feng. He looked in much better spirits than yesterday and was standing by a black Toyota MPV.
When Wang Feng saw Xiao Shun approaching, he respectfully stepped forward, “Master Xiao, I’m here to thank you.”
Xiao Shun said lightly, “It’s not a big deal. And you’ve already thanked me way too many times.”
Wang Feng invited Xiao Shun to the car and smiled, ”After your treatment, my daughter’s condition has become quite stable. We’re going back tomorrow. We’ll be able to have better treatment there, and I have things that I need to attend to at the headquarters. Before we leave, I have a gift I would like to give to Master Xiao. Please do accept it.”
“You’ve already given my wife a fifty million order. That’s enough.” Xiao Shun said.
“That’s business. Besides, your wife gives us what we need, and I am giving you this gift because you saved my daughter. That’s different.” Wang Feng said boldly.
Xiao Shun shrugged and laughed, “Okay, so what are you going to give me?”
“You’ll know when you arrive.” Wang Feng still didn’t tell him. He only let the driver drive.
About half an hour later, the car slowly drove into a villa area and eventually stopped in front of a stand-alone house.
After the two of them got out of the car, Wang Feng looked around for a moment before finally landing his gaze on the villa in front of him.
“This is a project of a friend of mine. Many of these villas have already been bought, and this one was originally intended as an investment. Now I am going to give it to you. Of course, you have saved my daughter many times and this villa is not enough, so please take it.”
Xiao Shun had never paid much attention to something like this, but he knew it couldn’t be cheap.
Wang Feng didn’t mention the price. Perhaps he felt that mentioning money in front of a master like Xiao Shun was inappropriate, and that his daughter’s life couldn’t be measured in money.
“Let’s go. Let’s take a look around.” Since Xiao Shun didn’t refuse, Wang Feng said.
Inside the villa it was richly decorated and everything inside was imported.
“I’ve never been here before either. Master Xiao, if you need anything, I can have it ready for you as well.”
Xiao Shun smiled faintly and said, “Not bad.”
When he heard him say that, Wang Feng understood that he was willing to take the villa. He was overjoyed, Xiao Shun was such a medical master, he would definitely need his help a lot in the future. He was a businessman after all, and having Xiao Shun as a friend was pure luck for him.
Xiao Shun had thought it through too. He was a poor man, so he could not always treat people for free, and it was only natural that he should receive a proper reward.
Soon, they returned to the car and Wang Feng handed him the keys to the villa, “I will take care of the formalities, you just need to sign your name and the villa will be yours.”
“Thank you then.”
Wang Feng laughed, “You are really welcome.”
On their way home, Xiao Shun received a call from Liu Yunxiang.
“Where the hell are you? Get your ass back here right now!” Liu Yunxiang cursed angrily.
Xiao Shun frowned, feeling very confused. Had he done anything today?
When Xiao Shun returned home, he noticed that the atmosphere was a bit weird.
Yao Cen and Yao Jianguo were both at home.
Logically, it’s not even noon yet and they should all be at work.
Yao Cen sat on the sofa with an expressionless face, and when she saw him return, she glared at him with a disgusted look on her face. Yao Jianguo, on the other hand, was sullen and did not say a word.
“So you still know your way home? I thought you had a new home already?” Liu Yunxiang was like an ignited powder keg at the sight of Xiao Shun.
“Here, look at this. It’s such a disgrace! Can’t you guys even find a room?” Liu Yunxiang handed him her phone, “Take a good look, you shameless thing.”
Xiao Shun took the phone and looked at it. It was the same picture Yao Cen had seen this morning.
His eyes quickly swept over the family and he smiled blandly, “That’s a pretty good picture.”
“How dare you laugh, you son of a bitch? You must divorce my daughter now!” Liu Yunxiang screamed.
“Xiao Shun, we’ve been good enough for you. My daughter works hard every day, but you got you a woman. You’d better get a divorce.”
Yao Jianguo was a professor after all, so unlike Liu Yunxiang, he didn’t use swear words, and he was a traditional man, so he had never asked them to divorce. But what happened today had touched his bottom line.
Xiao Shun ignored those two and instead gazed straight at Yao Cen and said, “If I say that I was treating Song Linger for the bruises on her forehead, would you believe me?”
If you believed me, I would be willing to protect you for the rest of your life, Xiao Shun said silently in his heart.
