Transmigrated into the body of a villain, I became my sister's savior.
Chapter 201 Peacock
The first time Lin Jianshen met Qing Ge.
Xia Tingwan, Xia Yunlu, and Zhao Xuan also met at a high-end coffee shop.
Zhao Xuan was holding Xia Yunlu's hand, his face showing just the right amount of tenderness.
Xia Yunlu lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up, looking like a shy girl in love.
Xia Tingwan thought to herself, "She's really good at acting."
Everyone here is an excellent actor.
Zhao Xuan is playing a deeply affectionate character, Xia Yunlu is playing an innocent character, and she herself is playing a good younger sister who worries about her older sister's marriage.
She put down her coffee cup and asked, "Brother-in-law, do you want to marry my sister as soon as possible?"
Xia Yunlu blushed: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"What brother-in-law? It's not even close to happening yet!"
Xia Tingwan took a sip of her coffee, glanced at the couples sitting in the coffee shop, and asked, "I'm just asking if you want to?"
Zhao Xuan grasped Xia Yunlu's hand: "Of course I want to."
It's best to settle these things as soon as possible.
Although the Zhao family was of high social standing, the Xia family was stronger, and many wanted to climb the social ladder.
Xia Tingwan said, "That's simple. Just invite my dad to your house."
"We'll host a special banquet."
"My dad is very concerned about his image; the higher the standard of the banquet, the better. Once he's in a good mood, things are pretty much settled."
Zhao Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Is it that simple?"
Xia Tingwan spread her hands: "Otherwise what? How complicated do you think it is?"
"During the dinner, have your dad mention this matter at the table, and I'll put in a few words on your behalf. It'll definitely work."
Zhao Xuan glanced at Xia Yunlu and put on a tender expression: "Okay, let's do as my sister says."
Xia Tingwan has been very favored in the Xia family recently.
Grandpa Xia liked her and especially enjoyed talking to her.
Xia Wenshan was also very satisfied with her.
With her speaking on my behalf, the chances of this succeeding are indeed much greater.
Zhao Xuan said, "Whether things work out or not, you can pick any of my cars."
"If things work out, feel free to come to me if there's anything I can do to help."
Xia Tingwan nodded: "Okay!"
Actually, it was a perfect match, and there was no difficulty at all.
Xia Wenshan had already taken them to several restaurants, and the Zhao family was the most suitable for Xia Yunlu.
The reason this matter hasn't been finalized yet is because Xia Wenshan hasn't finished his current tasks.
He has just finalized the list of potential husbands for Xia Rou and is preparing to hold the engagement ceremony.
We're considering who to invite today.
Zhao Xuan was obviously unaware of all this and was filled with gratitude towards Xia Tingwan.
He is very efficient.
The invitation was delivered to the Xia family the next day.
Xia Wenshan glanced at it and readily agreed.
Because Xia Rou was prone to stage fright, Xia Wenshan only brought Xia Yunlu and Xia Tingwan to the banquet.
The Zhao family made arrangements inside and out, which shows how much importance they placed on it.
A red carpet was laid at the entrance, extending from the main gate all the way to the main hall.
Two rows of uniformed waiters stood on either side of the red carpet, lining up to welcome the guests.
I heard that Xia Wenshan likes flowers and music, and his yard is full of fresh flowers.
Roses, lilies, and orchids fill the air with fragrance.
There were musicians playing nearby.
The sound of a violin flowed through the twilight.
Zhao Yuan, the head of the Zhao family, personally stood at the door to greet them.
With the Zhao family's deliberate attempts to please, the atmosphere gradually became more lively.
Zhao Yuan mentioned this to Xia Wenshan, saying that the two children liked each other.
Let's just settle this matter.
Xia Wenshan agreed on the spot.
The atmosphere became even more lively.
After the dinner, Xia Wenshan and Zhao Yuan went to the study.
They discussed the details of the engagement party and further collaborations.
Xia Tingwan saw bodyguard Niu Bin standing guard not far from the study, walked over and handed him a wine glass: "Uncle Niu, thank you for your hard work."
Niu Bin said, "I'm sorry, Miss, I have to drive Mr. Xia later, so I can't drink."
Xia Tingwan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's just black tea."
She pushed the cup forward a little further.
Niu Bin hesitated for a moment.
Xia Wenshan has always been cautious about what he eats and drinks.
The Zhao family knew about this, and to show their sincerity, all the ingredients, drinks, and tea tonight were inspected by a designated person.
Therefore, Niu Bin was not worried that there was anything wrong with the black tea.
He thought about it and decided it wasn't worth offending this favored young lady over such a trivial matter.
So he took the wine glass and took a small sip.
The taste is normal; it's just regular black tea.
He drank it all in one gulp.
As dusk fell.
Xia Wenshan was still talking to Zhao Yuan in the study and figured he wouldn't be coming out anytime soon.
Xia Tingwan found Xia Yunlu: "Grandpa just said that we should go back and talk to him."
Xia Yunlu has completed her task for today; it's up to her whether she stays here or not.
She nodded: "Should we tell Dad?"
Xia Tingwan said, "He's inside discussing something. I'll just send him a WeChat message."
The two got into the car.
When we arrived at the nursing home, the old man was sleeping.
Xia Tingwan said, "Oh, I was just thinking of talking to Grandpa, but I didn't expect him to fall asleep. Let's go back then."
Xia Ziqiang was prone to sleepiness, which was quite normal, so Xia Yunlu didn't think much of it.
So the two returned to the Xia family home.
When Xia Wenshan came out, he found that both of his daughters had left.
He laughed and said, "My eldest daughter has become shy so quickly."
I talked with Zhao Yuan about cooperation in many areas today, and he was in a very good mood.
Zhao Yuan also laughed and said, "Girls should go back and rest if they're tired."
"Don't worry, we'll treat her well after she marries into our family."
Xia Wenshan nodded and got into the blue car.
Niu Bin was driving.
The car drove smoothly out of the Zhao family's gate and slowly drove along the lakeside road.
Xia Wenshan leaned back in his leather seat with his eyes closed, thinking that Xia Yunlu's affairs had been arranged.
The next step is to find Xia Tingwan a marriage partner.
This daughter is very talented; she needs to acquire more resources.
Which company should I contact?
Xia Tingwan sat at her desk in her bedroom, looking at her computer.
The screen displays images transmitted from the millimeter-wave radar on the blue car.
The lakeside road stretched into the night, with streetlights on both sides flashing past one after another.
She picked up the teacup on the table and took a small sip.
"Peacock."
"exist."
"Kill him."
"receive."
Inside the azure carriage, everything was as usual.
Niu Bin gripped the steering wheel, focusing intently on the road ahead.
Ahead was a U-turn. He stepped on the brake, preparing to slow down and enter the turn.
The brakes are hard; you can't press them down.
He was shocked.
But this situation wasn't unmanageable; he immediately turned the steering wheel, preparing to take the corner at that speed.
The steering wheel remained completely still, as if it had been welded shut.
He looked down and saw that the driver assistance light on the dashboard was on.
He hurriedly tried to turn on the driver assistance switch, but there was no response.
problem occurs!
"President Xia!" he shouted hoarsely, "Jump out of the car!"
Xia Wenshan was extremely capable. At this moment, he didn't waste any words and directly opened the car door.
The car doors were locked and wouldn't budge.
Azure rushed straight into the lake.
Xia Tingwan has already conducted an on-site investigation; this place is very remote.
Enough to drown him.
Niu Bin tried to remain calm: "President Xia, don't be afraid, this car has an automatic floating function."
He used to joke with other drivers that only this car's vehicle and vessel tax wasn't wasted.
Because it can actually cross water.
There are special sensors under the vehicle to detect water conditions. Once triggered, the vehicle will immediately activate its buoyancy function.
But at this moment, the car did not respond at all.
The air conditioner did not switch from external circulation to internal circulation.
The vehicle's sealing system was not activated, and water was seeping in.
The car sank.
Xia Wenshan was in despair.
Because this vehicle was extremely heavy, it sank very quickly.
Based on the current speed, it would only take him one or two minutes to sink to the bottom of the lake.
It would take at least ten minutes for him to get here from the Zhao family, by which time he would have already drowned.
If you call the police, it will take even longer for them to arrive.
He gave up on making the call and futilely smashed the car window with his phone.
The car's infotainment screen suddenly switched images.
Xia Tingwan's face appeared on the screen, her eyes coldly staring at him.
Under these circumstances, how could Xia Wenshan not understand?
He exclaimed in shock, "It was you who did this!"
Xia Tingwan leaned back in her chair, her beautiful hair cascading down like a waterfall.
"Actually, my mother told me before that I should live a good life, not hate you, and not have anything to do with you."
"But you insisted on coming along. Tell me, didn't you just ask for it?"
Xia Wenshan said, "Xia Tingwan, immediately activate the floating mode!"
"Otherwise...otherwise I will..."
Xia Tingwan suddenly sat up straight and smiled: "Otherwise what? Trying to threaten me?"
Her smile turned cold: "To tell you the truth, crushing you would be as easy as crushing a bug."
Xia Wenshan had said these words to many people before, and at this moment he was both shocked and angry, his face flushed red.
Xia Tingwan made a few sucking noises with her mouth: "Oh, you're getting angry already."
"Everyone says you're very shrewd, but now it seems you're not as shrewd as me."
Xia Wenshan gritted his teeth and said, "Xia Tingwan, if you dare to lay a hand on me, the Xia family will not let you get away with this!"
Xia Tingwan laughed again: "Look at you, you're talking nonsense before you die."
"Actually, crushing the Xia family would be as easy as crushing a bedbug."
"Is this answer satisfactory?"
"dad."
"Too bad you can't see this."
The car's screen went out with a "buzzing" sound.
The entire vehicle has completely sunk into the water.
Xia Wenshan has disappeared from the world forever.
Xia Tingwan leaned back in her chair, and the first song her mother taught her inexplicably came to mind.
"What a beautiful jasmine flower."
"What a beautiful jasmine flower, fragrant and beautiful, its branches are full of blossoms."
"It smells good and is white, everyone praises it."
She sighed softly, "Jasmine, oh Jasmine, how could you have fallen for this kind of man?"
Of all the flowers, Gu Qingyin loved jasmine the most.
She always prefers jasmine-scented toiletries.
Xia Tingwan leaned back in her chair again: "Peacock, oh Peacock, the person I love is different from him, do you know that?"
"I know," the AI, originally designed for smart homes, replied.
You should be a rock, and I should be a reed.
Reeds and rushes are as fine as silk, but the rock remains unmoved.
