If only this man were my husband, then Xiaochen and I would have someone to rely on in the future.
"Get up quickly."
As Chen Shuting was lost in thought, Tang Ping helped her up. The two were very close, and when their eyes met, Chen Shuting couldn't help but blush and her heart race.
However, Tang Ping didn't notice any of this. He let Chen Shuting get in the car first, while he went to find Li Xiang and Gao Qiqiang.
Although Gao Qiqiang took some risks, he was unharmed and not as dangerous as Tang Ping who went in.
The two exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
With Xu Jiang dead, many things were buried underground, and now we no longer have to worry about this time bomb.
Li Xiang sighed, "Xu Jiang was only knocked unconscious by you, but Mayor Zhao's secretary ordered a sniper to kill him. It's a pity that after so many years in Jinghai, we still can't dig out many of Xu Jiang's secrets."
“Some people don’t want him to speak, but that’s normal. With Xu Jiang alive, many people probably can’t sleep soundly. Officer Li, don’t think too much about it. At least Xu Jiang, that menace, is gone, isn’t he? The sky over Jinghai will clear up soon.”
"I hope so."
Li Xiang nodded, then remembered that he owed his success to Tang Ping. He quickly said, "Tang Ping, thank you so much this time. I still need to clean up the scene. Once I'm done with this, I'll definitely treat you to a meal."
Tang Ping laughed and said, "Okay, I'll wait."
"Officer Li, we won't keep you from your work, we'll be going now."
"Okay, drive carefully."
Driving Chen Shuting's car, they first returned to Fenglin Yayuan. Bai Xiaochen was frightened, and Chen Shuting was still comforting him, saying, "Tang Ping, you drive the car back first, and I'll have the driver pick it up later."
"good."
Tang Ping nodded without any hesitation. He drove Gao Qiqiang to school first, and then planned to pick up his elderly mother.
Xu Jiang is dead, the alert can be lifted, and the KTV can reopen.
Tang Ping was pondering all the way when suddenly his cell phone rang. It was Uncle Tai calling.
"Tang Ping, do you have some time? I'd like to invite you for tea."
Uncle Tai's hoarse voice came through.
Tang Ping thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Uncle Tai, you're inviting me for tea? Haha, you're being so kind, I'll make time even if I'm busy. But let's talk about what it's about first. I like to be direct, so we don't end up arguing, right?"
Uncle Tai chuckled and said, "Hehe, you little rascal, you're quite the schemer. Alright, I won't beat around the bush. Xu Jiang and Bai Jiangbo are dead, and someone has to maintain order in Jinghai. I think you're a good young man, and I'd like to promote you to that position. What do you think? If you agree, I'll immediately buy Bai Jinhan and give him to you!"
Tang Ping was immediately embarrassed and said, "Uncle Tai, this is too much of a gift. I'm afraid I can't accept it."
"Hehe, you can handle it."
"Uncle Tai must have conditions, right?"
Tang Ping asked.
"Of course, I only have a small request, which you can easily fulfill." Uncle Tai paused for a moment and said, "I heard that you lost your father at a young age. Putting aside my status and age, it wouldn't be difficult for you to recognize me as your godfather, would it?"
Uncle Tai was confident that the terms he offered were very generous.
Tang Ping, this young man, can easily obtain Bai Jinhan and climb to the position of the boss of Jinghai without paying any price.
Let alone Tang Ping, anyone would have agreed with gratitude.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ping paused for a moment, then suddenly burst into a tirade: "Get the hell out of here! Chen Tai, I'm only calling you Uncle Tai out of respect. If I didn't, who do you think you are? I'll let it go this time because of your age, but if you dare mention this to me again, I'll make sure you're buried alive!"
After saying that, Tang Ping hung up the phone.
Fuck you, you lunatic!
I only called you Uncle Tai out of respect, and you actually want to be my father?
Chen Tai, do you even deserve it?
Tang Ping cursed inwardly.
Meanwhile, Chen Tai was a bit stunned after being scolded by Tang Ping.
"What's wrong with Tang Ping?"
Chen Tai thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. He was a little annoyed. After thinking for a while, he dialed another number.
In Maple Forest Garden, Chen Shuting had just settled her son Bai Xiaochen down to sleep. She went to the balcony, answered the phone, and said, "Hello, Uncle Tai."
Chen Tai said, a little annoyed, "What are you doing? It took you so long to answer the phone."
"Xiaochen was frightened during the day and just fell asleep."
"Hey, could you arrange for Gao Qiqiang to come over for tea with me these next couple of days? I've got it all figured out. Once Xu Jiang's dead, I'll put him in charge."
Chen Shuting asked in confusion, "Uncle Tai, didn't you think highly of Tang Ping before? Why did you change your mind?"
Chen Tai snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, I'd like to flatter him, but he's not interested. He even gave me a good scolding. This guy doesn't know what's good for him. I think we should just go with Gao Qiqiang!"
After saying that, Chen Tai hung up the phone.
Chen Shuting leaned against the wall, somewhat puzzled. After thinking for a while, she called the driver.
Tang Ping drove his mother home. Along the way, his mother kept saying, "Ah Ping, Lin Yuan is a good girl. Her parents are both teachers, so when you have children, the family atmosphere will be good. Our family has been working for generations, so it's good to be educated. And Lin Yuan is a well-educated, sensible, and considerate girl. Marrying her would definitely be the right choice."
Tang Ping said speechlessly, "Mom, this is nothing at all. Besides, would they even be interested in me?"
“I asked her privately, and she was quite shy, but she didn’t refuse. Silly son, there’s definitely something going for you. Don’t always treat her like an employee, ordering her around. Take her on dates, go to the movies, go shopping, and stuff like that. Young girls these days like romance. Unlike me, when both sets of parents agreed, we just got married.” The mother offered her advice.
Tang Ping was indeed helpless and said, "Mom, to tell you the truth, I actually have a girlfriend."
"Who is it? Where is she? You brat, don't try to fool me with excuses. Anyway, I'm quite satisfied with Xiaoyuan as my daughter-in-law, so you're not allowed to be picky."
“It’s true, her name is Meng Yu. You should have met her before. But she’s a reporter who works in Kyoto. I’ll bring her home for you to see when she has time off.”
The elderly mother exclaimed excitedly, "Really?"
Tang Ping nodded: "See, would I lie to you about this?"
"You brat, why didn't you say so earlier? Now I've gone to Xiaoyuan's house, and people might misunderstand."
"It was you who insisted on getting involved."
Tang Ping muttered something to himself and parked the car outside the yard, where a middle-aged man in a suit was standing at the gate.
