Why does my senior sister always like to squat on the wall?
Wu Tian glanced at Jin Lingyun, his heart filled with confusion. This gentle-looking senior sister had such unconventional tastes.
Jin Lingyun smiled slyly and replied, "Only by sitting high can one see far, and only by protecting Xia Xue here can I ensure her safety."
Wu Tian shrugged helplessly, then said gratefully, "Thank you for your trouble, Senior Sister. Oh? What is this?"
His gaze fell on the exquisite box, heavy and inviting.
Jin Lingyun smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when you open it."
Wu Tian couldn't wait any longer. With a flick of his fingertips, the box opened, revealing a heavy mobile phone.
He looked up in surprise: "Why did you give me this?"
A hint of displeasure flashed in Jin Lingyun's eyes, and her cherry lips pouted slightly: "Of course, it's so it's easier to contact you. Otherwise, what would I do if I couldn't find you when something happened?"
Wu Tian was taken aback, wondering why Jin Lingyun was suddenly unhappy. He then sincerely thanked her, saying, "Thank you for the gift, Senior Sister. I will accept it without hesitation."
He felt that Jin Lingyun made a good point and that he should have a mobile phone so that it would be much more convenient to contact her.
Jin Lingyun muttered, her voice barely audible, "What a clueless guy! He didn't even notice that someone had a deliberately hidden box..."
Wu Tian, with his sharp ears, caught the whisper and couldn't help but wonder, "Does Senior Sister have something else to say?"
Jin Lingyun quickly covered it up, laughing, "No, you should go inside quickly, Xia Xue is still waiting for you."
Wu Tian nodded and said gently, "Senior Sister has taken great care of Xiao Xue. I will remember this kindness. I'll take care of things here. Senior Sister can go back now."
Jin Lingyun snorted lightly, seemingly unwilling: "Fine, I'll go then, you don't need to rush me!"
Just as he was stepping across the threshold, Wu Tian suddenly remembered something, stopped and turned around: "Senior sister, could you please inquire about someone named Zhang Tingbin, who had a connection with Ren Changqing in Linhai City eight years ago?"
The Jin family is powerful and influential, with influence throughout Rongzhou. Investigating one person shouldn't be difficult.
Jin Lingyun readily agreed: "Okay! I'll give you my answer tomorrow."
Before Jin Lingyun finished speaking, she had already turned around gracefully, leaving a faint fragrance beside Wu Tian.
She muttered to herself as she walked, her eyes revealing both helplessness at Wu Tian's lack of romantic understanding and a subtle hint of tenderness and care.
On the other side, Wu Tian put his phone in his pocket and went inside.
"Brother Tian, you're back!"
As soon as Wu Tian stepped into the room, Xia Xue came to his side as lightly as a spring breeze, her face full of the joy of reunion.
Wu Tian gently held his soft, boneless hand, his words filled with tenderness and concern, "It's late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Before she could finish speaking, Grandma Xia's loving voice rang out: "You're not home, how can Xiaoxue sleep peacefully? I was planning to sleep with her, but she insists on sleeping and dreaming with you."
Upon hearing this, Xia Xue's cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she whispered shyly, "Grandma... I didn't..."
Her voice was barely audible, her shyness barely concealed.
Grandma Xia smiled so much that her wrinkles were filled with happiness. She teased, "Why be so shy in front of your husband? Now that Xiaotian is back, you can rest assured. When will this old woman be able to hold her great-grandson?"
Xia Xue's cheeks were as red as the sunset. Although she and Wu Tian had been married for a long time, they had not yet consummated their marriage for various reasons.
When my grandmother asked me about this, my heart was filled with ripples of emotion.
Seeing this, Wu Tian felt a mix of emotions. He knew Xia Xue's physical condition well, and it was impossible for her to have a child.
Although with current technology they could have a child together, for Xia Xue it was still a nightmare she didn't want to talk about.
After some time, once Xia Xue has recovered from her nightmare, he will slowly tell her the truth.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he solemnly promised, "Grandma, we will carefully consider the matter of the child, but right now, Xiaoxue needs time to recover both physically and mentally, and it cannot be cured overnight."
Xia Xue read deep understanding and care in Wu Tian's eyes, and her gratitude was palpable.
Then, she parted her lips slightly and asked with concern, "How is Ren Gang's father doing these days?"
She understood the relationship between Wu Tian and Ren Gang, and when she heard that Ren Changqing might have betrayed the Wu family, she was filled with anxiety.
Wu Tian spoke softly: "Uncle Ren, are you well? The truth about what happened back then has come to light. It was actually done by a man named Zhang Tingbin, and it had nothing to do with you, Uncle Ren."
Upon hearing this, Xia Xue felt a great weight lifted from her heart, and her tone was filled with relief and ease: "That's good, that's good!"
Wu Tian nodded, then turned his gaze to Grandma Xia, saying tenderly, "Grandma, it's late, you should rest too."
Grandma Xia nodded with a smile and stepped into the inner room, while Wu Tian and Xia Xue also walked hand in hand into their cozy room.
The night was quiet and still. Wu Tian stepped out of his room as the gentle morning light shone in, but he did not notice Jin Lingyun jumping down from the wall.
Just as his thoughts were drifting, a gentle and refined middle-aged man stepped forward and said softly, "Mr. Wu, Miss asked me to convey that she has returned to Rongzhou due to urgent business, but she will definitely fulfill her promise to you."
A hint of worry flashed across Wu Tian's brow. Jin Lingyun had left late last night and was leaving again in a hurry this morning. Had she encountered some kind of accident?
He couldn't help but ask, "Why did you leave so abruptly without saying goodbye, Senior Sister?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "It is not convenient for me to inquire about Miss's affairs. However, she was personally greeted by Master last night, so she should be fine. Also, I am Jin Cheng. Miss ordered me to stay here and await your orders."
Upon hearing this, Wu Tian's doubts were not completely dispelled, but he did not delve any further into the matter.
My relationship with Jin Lingyun is still superficial, so perhaps she was indeed summoned for important business.
He nodded slightly and instructed, "Prepare the car shortly, we'll head to the Xia Group."
At nine o'clock in the morning, Wu Tian and Xia Xue arrived side by side at the main gate of the Xia Group.
What was truly breathtaking was that a magnificent red carpet snaked out from inside the door, and the entire Xia family lined up to welcome Xia Xue's arrival.
What is particularly noteworthy is that Xia Zhonghai, dressed in simple cleaning clothes, was at the back of the group, yet his leadership qualities were undeniable, and everyone's hearts were still with him.
Noticing Wu Tian's gaze, Xia Zhonghai trembled slightly at first, then smiled broadly, clapped first, and shouted: "A warm welcome to Chairman Xia Xue and Mr. Wu Tian!"
Instantly, cheers erupted, echoing through the sky.
Although Xia Xue had never seen such a scene before, she calmly walked through the crowd and instructed in a gentle but firm tone: "Please take your places, and the management team will follow me to the conference room for a meeting."
As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in her early twenties, dressed in a uniform, hurriedly came forward and said respectfully, "Chairman Xia, hello, my name is Xiao Cai, I am your secretary. Let me take you to your office."
Xia Xue nodded slightly and followed Xiao Cai into the elevator with Wu Tian.
After the group disappeared, Xia Zhonghai quickly said, "What are you still standing there for? Get to work. Remember, don't mess with this new chairperson, especially her husband."
