Qi Zhengmin drank tea to cover up the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
"Miss Qi, what do you do for a living?" Old Madam Tang asked. From Qi Zhengmin's clothes and speech, one could tell that she had a good upbringing and family background.
Qi Zhengmin smiled and said, "My family is in business! I'm learning from my brother."
"Oh, Miss Qi is truly remarkable," said Madam Tang. "By the way, Miss Qi, have you eaten yet?"
"I've already eaten," Qi Zhengmin replied. "Thank you, Auntie."
"No need to thank me, I should thank you for bringing Tang Qian back," said Madam Tang. "In any case, it's fate. Come visit us sometime."
After drinking the tea, Qi Zhengmin took his leave again ten minutes later.
Madam Tang did not try to stop him, and watched Qi Zhengmin drive away.
Back inside, both Grandpa Tang and Grandma Tang looked at Tang Qian at the same time.
"Little Four, this girl looks familiar, but I can't quite place her. Whose daughter is she?" Old Master Tang asked. He had wanted to ask her more carefully earlier, but he was afraid of being too impolite.
Madam Tang also looked at her son with hope.
This time, the girl my son brought home is quite nice.
Feeling embarrassed by his parents' stares, Tang Qian said, "That's Qi Zhengmin. She went to visit the Huo family with her brother before. She's one of the heads of Nanshi Fuxi Automobile Company. You happened to be playing chess with Uncle Huo at the Huo family that day, so you probably caught a glimpse of her."
"Oh!" Old Master Tang exclaimed as if suddenly realizing something. "Young man, not bad, you've gotten to know Miss Qi so quickly. Was your injury today a staged act?"
Although this method is not exactly ethical, it is quite effective.
"Son, although Miss Qi is nice, you can't just run into her car to get to know her," said Madam Tang, disapproving of her son's method. What if the car was going any faster? Her son would be in mortal danger!
Tang Qian smiled wryly; even his own parents thought so.
Then let's not talk about other people.
They will definitely have doubts.
Thinking about what he was about to face, Tang Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry!
“Father, it really wasn’t intentional,” Tang Qian said. “Although I really wanted to get that project, I wouldn’t recklessly crash into someone’s car. Besides, I didn’t know it was Qi Zhengmin’s car! Who knew it would just happen to crash into her car like that. After all, it’s a critical time right now, and I’m very busy.”
"By the way, where did you go today?" Old Master Tang asked. His son might lie to outsiders, but he believed his son had no reason to lie to his parents.
"It's quite a coincidence. I went to Huo Yingjie's place today and talked with him and his wife. We agreed to go to the International Hotel together tomorrow to meet the Qi siblings," Tang Qian said with a wry smile. "He Tiantian already had a bad impression of me. If she finds out about tonight, she'll definitely think I did it on purpose."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Tang could only manage a wry smile.
"Hmph, that serves you right for your reckless behavior in the past," said Madam Tang. "You can't do that again in the future."
Tang Qian was also filled with regret.
Thinking about Huo Yingjie saying that he was destined to have many romantic encounters, perhaps it really is true?
"Dad, you know my personality since I was little, I'm not a particularly evil person. The fact that I've had relationships with so many women isn't because I wanted to. Every time I meet someone I like, I want to get to know them properly, but after a while, it gets boring, and then I start looking for the next one," Tang Qian said, also finding it somewhat strange.
This is also why, besides Li Gongru, Tang Qian didn't date several women at the same time like other spoiled brats; he would only move on to the next one after he grew tired of one…
"Isn't it just because he's a womanizer!" said Madam Tang, glaring at her husband. When he was young, he was a talented young man, and many girls threw themselves at him despite the fact that he already had a family.
If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too.
"Ahem!" Old Master Tang was embarrassed by his wife's glare; it was all old news.
“Father, Huo Yingjie said I might be cursed with bad luck in love, destined to be involved with many romantic relationships,” Tang Qian said. “He might have been joking at the time, but I feel like there might be some truth to it. I didn’t want to do it, but I did anyway. Don’t you think that’s strange?”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Tang was taken aback. After a long while, he slowly asked, "Little Fourth, we are your parents. You can't lie to us just to save face. You said you really don't want to find women, but you can't help but find women again and again, changing women?"
"Yes, I also think it's wrong, but I just can't control myself," Tang Qian said. "Now that I'm divorced, I might have a new family in the future, and I don't want my future wife and children to suffer because of a woman."
He really wants to turn over a new leaf.
"Old man, what our son said does seem a bit strange. Why don't we find a master to take a look and resolve this?" said Madam Tang. Her son could easily remarry; with the Tang family's influence, there would surely be many families willing to marry him.
But Madam Tang was afraid of becoming the second Li Gongru!
Their own son is a good-for-nothing, causing trouble outside? If he makes a mess of things, even if they die, they won't be able to rest in peace!
After thinking for a while, Grandpa Tang slowly said, "Okay, I'll figure something out. Alright, Xiao Si, go upstairs and get some rest. Remember to take your medicine these next few days and don't get it wet."
"Yes, Father," Tang Qian replied respectfully. He knew a lot about the ins and outs and knew all sorts of people. His father would take care of finding a master.
Tang Qian got up and swaggered upstairs.
"Little Si, you were being helped up just now, how come you can walk again now?" Old Madam Tang asked curiously.
This question left Tang Qian completely embarrassed. Without answering, he went straight upstairs.
"You brat," Old Master Tang chuckled and scolded, "didn't you realize he was faking it?"
"Pretending?" Old Madam Tang was taken aback, then laughed. "Oh, of these children, you are most like the fourth one. No wonder you dote on him the most. You've solved all the trouble he's caused."
Grandpa Tang smiled and said, "Alright, it's getting late, let's rest too."
If his wife continues to say such things, Mr. Tang's romantic escapades from his youth will be brought up again.
Actually, Grandpa Tang is quite innocent. He is handsome and refined, but it's not his fault. He didn't seduce those people on his own initiative. Moreover, he has been avoiding them for the sake of family harmony.
But sometimes you can't escape it even if you want to!
So... he reluctantly agreed...
Fortunately, my wife is very forgiving. Every time she scolds or hits him, she doesn't hold it against him. Otherwise, our family would have fallen apart.
