Chapter 347: Recruiting a Son-in-Law
Leng Yi followed Butler Zeng to another room, which looked like a study.
Sitting behind the desk was an old man with half-white hair. He should be the head of their Zeng family.
"Is this Mr. Leng?" Zeng Jianwei stood up immediately upon seeing Leng Yi, walked over and shook his hand enthusiastically. "Thank you, Mr. Leng, for saving my daughter. This is such a great favor. We in the Zeng family will never forget it!"
Leng Yi smiled faintly, "Master Zeng, you are too polite."
"Please sit down!" Zeng Jianwei asked Leng Yi to sit down, and housekeeper Zeng quickly poured tea over.
"I heard what happened today from my daughter. If it weren't for Mr. Leng, my daughter might have died. I can't repay you for saving my life..."
"It's just a small favor." Leng Yi waved his hand. "In that situation, if I didn't take action, I would have been unable to protect myself. It's not really a favor to your daughter."
Zeng Jianwei smiled and said, "Mr. Leng is really modest. There are not many young people who are so modest nowadays."
"I heard that Mr. Leng is also a psychic. Did he use his powers to save my daughter? And he even killed the other psychic?"
"Yes." Leng Yi did not deny it. So many people saw it, there was nothing to hide.
"I wonder where Mr. Leng got his 'holy blood'?" Zeng Jianwei suddenly asked.
Leng Yi sneered in his heart, he was waiting for him here.
"That's all I can say."
Zeng Jianwei's expression changed slightly, but he quickly put on a smile again. "Yes, Zeng was reckless. How could I just say such a thing out loud? Hahaha..."
"However, no matter what, Mr. Leng did save my daughter's life. The Zeng family is not the kind of people who are ungrateful. Mr. Leng, please feel free to ask for anything. We will agree to it no matter what it is."
Zeng Jianwei looked at Leng Yi. He was so young and handsome, and he was also a person with special abilities. If he could marry his daughter, the Zeng family would have an extra helper.
He only had two daughters. The eldest daughter was married before the end of the world. In order to make her easier to control, she found an honest man.
Although the eldest son-in-law is honest, he really has no special abilities, and his uselessness becomes even more apparent at the end of the world.
The younger daughter is also a strong woman like the older one, but she is arrogant and has high standards, and has never found the person she likes.
But after coming back today, he couldn't forget the savior. He also heard that the man was a supernatural being, and had just arrived in Licheng with only three other people. He had no roots in Licheng, so he had the idea of finding a son-in-law for his youngest daughter.
Although he adopted a son, he was not his own blood after all. He would still feel reluctant to hand over all his wealth to the adopted son.
If the youngest daughter marries a man and takes her surname, it can be considered as continuing the family line.
Looking at Leng Yi again, he is handsome, humble and polite, and I like him even more.
"Is anything really possible?" Leng Yi looked at Zeng Jianwei.
"Anything is fine." Zeng Jianwei smiled. He would even let his daughter marry him.
"Then could you please, Master Zeng, send me ten boxes of purified water?" Leng Yi said.
The water in Yang Qing's space is not easy to take out, and the water outside is too hard to drink. He has no points to exchange for water. Since the head of the Zeng family agrees on anything, he should not be stingy with this little water, right?
Zeng Jianwei's smile froze. "Ten boxes of water?"
Leng Yi smiled and said, "I just arrived in Licheng and realized that water resources are very scarce. We don't have any points, so we really can't exchange for water. That's why we made this request. Does it make Master Zeng embarrassed?"
"Not really." Zeng Jianwei's mouth twitched. How could he be the head of the family if he couldn't even produce ten boxes of water?
"Mr. Leng is too modest. My daughter's life is worth more than ten boxes of water." Zeng Jianwei looked a little embarrassed.
"My daughter is 23 years old this year and is not married yet. I think Mr. Leng is a handsome man, and I intend to marry my daughter to him." Zeng Jianwei had to get straight to the point.
Leng Yi's face changed. "Master Zeng, you are joking. I already have a wife. Didn't I just tell Butler Zeng that the person who came with me is my wife?"
Zeng Jianwei smiled nonchalantly, "As a man, having more women is nothing. Not to mention the ancient times where people had three wives and four concubines, even in a family like ours today, how many people don't have...women outside their homes?"
"Besides, it's the end of the world now, so it's not surprising for capable men to have more than one woman. I'm not asking Mr. Leng to divorce your wife, I just hope that after Mr. Leng marries my daughters, he'll treat them equally."
"If the two of them could call each other sisters and live in harmony, Mr. Leng could also enjoy the happiness of having two wives. Wouldn't that be even more satisfying? Hahahaha..."
Although he said this, his actual plan was to first stabilize Leng Yi, and after he married his daughter, he would find an opportunity to kill his wife, so that he would only have his daughter as his wife.
Leng Yi couldn't smile, his face turned cold, "Master Zeng, I just come from an ordinary family, I don't dare to have such unreasonable thoughts. After I got married, my wife and I swore to marry only her in this life, and never leave her for the rest of our lives."
Zeng Jianwei's smile faded, but he continued, "Things are different now than before the apocalypse. If it were before, I wouldn't have wronged my daughter like this..."
Leng Yi sneered, "You are wronging my wife. Master Zeng keeps saying that he wants to repay a favor, but why do I feel that you are repaying kindness with resentment?"
Zeng Jianwei couldn't hold back his expression. "Mr. Leng, I saw that you have some skills and are quite talented, so I felt a sense of appreciation for your talent. Don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!"
"You've offended the Bai family and killed one of their superpowers. If you don't have the protection of our Zeng family, you won't survive tomorrow if you leave this door."
"Is Master Zeng threatening me?" Leng Yi's face darkened.
"Mr. Leng, I'm kindly reminding you that this is the end of the world, and in Licheng, it's not a place where you can do whatever you want. You should also consider your wife. Without you, can she survive on her own?"
"As long as you agree, our Zeng family will definitely treat her well and won't let her suffer any hardship." Zeng Jianwei's face was no longer in a good mood.
"Don't worry, Master Zeng. I can take good care of my own wife and won't let her suffer." Leng Yi snorted coldly, stood up and wanted to leave.
Butler Zeng suddenly blocked Leng Yi's way.
Leng Yi sneered and suddenly broke off a metal armrest from the swivel chair sofa. In his hand, he immediately transformed it into a soft whip and wrapped it around the neck of the head of the Zeng family.
The head of the Zeng family was shocked.
Butler Zeng was horrified. "Mr. Leng, calm down, calm down. Please don't hurt our master. Think about your wife. She's still in the living room..."
"You still dare to threaten me?" Leng Yi was angry. He increased the strength of his hands and tightened the whip. The head of the Zeng family was strangled so hard that his eyes rolled up and he almost died.
"Let go, let go..." The head of the Zeng family rolled his eyes and waved his hands.
Leng Yi loosened the whip a little, "Can you talk properly now?"
The head of the Zeng family took a breath and coughed several times. "Forget it, since Mr. Leng is unwilling, I will not force him."
