Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 229 The deal is done; I'll tell you everything I know.

The atmosphere in the bar reached its peak, with everyone on the first floor cheering and jumping for joy, as if some kind of show was about to begin.

The people on the second floor had been watching the hot dance of handsome men and beautiful women for a while, and their eyes were getting a little tired. Han Guoguo complained, "I haven't been back for a few years, and there are so many more plastic surgery faces in the capital. It seems that in the future, I should find a good-looking father for my child so that I can save on plastic surgery fees."

Su Xue, an obstetrician and gynecologist, sincerely spoke her mind: "Sister, your idea is wise. I feel especially good every day when I deliver babies with good genes. But let me tell you, there are exceptions to genes. I remember last year there was a couple whose parents were very good-looking, but their child's appearance was... well, let's just say it wasn't good. The child had a flat nose, single eyelids, and a small mouth. The moment the father took the child, he turned on the child, saying it wasn't his and insisting that we had made a mistake. In the end, it all went to the hospital director, and it was the powerful DNA that settled the matter."

Tang Junyao knew about this; Su Xue had told her about it before, and she calmly said, "There's always a chance of something going wrong, including with genes."

Han Guoguo is a pediatrician, which is where she and Su Xue have some connection. She also commented, "I agree with that. Good looks can indeed bring joy. Your two children are like they saved the galaxy, both growing up in a positive direction. I'm so envious."

Su Xue blurted out, "You like children too?"

Han Guoguo: "Of course I like it! How could I become a pediatrician if I didn't like it?"

Xi Xi quickly replied, "I like it too."

The group exchanged smiles; they were all overflowing with maternal love.

Because the music in the bar was too loud, the group of people were exhausted from chatting at the top of their lungs, so they huddled together to discuss where to go next.

She didn't even notice the person sitting next to her until a pair of warm hands touched her waist. With quick reflexes, Tang Junyao elbowed the man's firm chest.

"Ouch, that was brutal." Ji Hancheng wasn't angry at all. He rubbed his aching chest with one hand, feeling a ticklish sensation in his heart, his eyes full of pleasure.

Hearing the familiar voice, Tang Junyao turned around. When she saw the man's sculpted features, she didn't show any surprise. She had thought that Ji Hancheng would know when she saw Han Yue, and sure enough, he did.

She glanced at the man and saw that his hand was still touching his aching chest. He had indeed been a bit too forceful. Thinking he was a stranger, she raised her hand to help rub it, but the next second her hand was tightly gripped. She pretended to be calm and asked, "Why are you here? Where's Lele?"

Ji Hancheng ignored his son's question and teased with a smile, "Let's see how your face mask is going. I'm here to pick you up."

Tang Junyao: "........." I knew this reason would be awkward.

Instead of continuing the conversation, she changed the subject, asking, "Did you hurt your hand?"

Ji Hancheng released her hand, wrapped his arm around her waist, and put his arm around her slender waist. He leaned close to her ear and said, "Yaoyao, you've become naughty now. You can even lie through your teeth. This scene is quite different from a beauty salon. Or do you have some misunderstanding about beauty salons?"

Tang Junyao: I can't get over this, this lie is so embarrassing.

With the mindset that as long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were embarrassed, her aura instantly rose, "You can't get over it, huh? How many times have you lied to me? Even if I lie to you once, you're still the one who gains."

He was quick-witted and blatantly shameless, but with a doting chuckle, he changed the subject, "You're the boss. I just missed you and was worried you wouldn't be able to drive after drinking."

Han Guoguo sat opposite, watching the possessed Master Ji with great interest, without saying a word or disturbing him.

Su Xue preemptively said to Lu Jinnan beside her, "Don't talk. I've been taking care of the child for so long, can't I even vent a little?"

Although I felt a little guilty, my strong presence made me feel justified.

Lu Jinnan swallowed back everything he was about to say, and hurriedly smiled ingratiatingly, "You're overthinking it, Grandma. I was just worried you'd been drinking, so I came to drive for you, wasn't I?"

Everyone present laughed at Lu Jinnan; he was such a sycophant.

Han Guoguo finally couldn't hold back any longer and raised her head at the two men who had just arrived. "Hey, can't you see me sitting here? Or am I invisible? You're all people who forget your principles for the sake of beauty."

Ji Hancheng ignored this, not wanting to argue with Han Guoguo, and casually rubbed Tang Junyao's waist.

Lu Jinnan had seen Han Guoguo in Han Yue's photo before, and now he pretended to be surprised, "Oh, isn't this Miss Han? You're back. I thought you were going to marry someone from Lancheng."

Han Guoguo scoffed at this hypocrisy, "Tch, I've been sitting here for ages and you're only just realizing? Yueyue is your daughter?"

Speaking of her daughter, Lu Jinnan said proudly, "Hmm, isn't she adorable?"

Han Guoguo is quite quick to accept things. She had already figured out the relationship between Lu Jinnan and Ji Hancheng when she saw them. "They are quite cute. You are better than my brother."

Lu Jinnan: "That's right, you don't even know where your brother's girlfriend is."

Ji Hancheng glanced at Han Guoguo across from him, his hand still on Tang Junyao's waist, "Didn't go home."

Compared to Lu Jinnan, Han Guoguo wasn't as playful with Ji Hancheng; she was more serious. "No."

"Hey, you got here pretty fast." Han Yue stood lazily in front of Ji Hancheng, a toothpick dangling from his mouth, his hands in his pockets.

Then, glancing at the two of them, he sat down next to Han Guoguo and said, "My bar has become a spring outing venue."

"It's a great project, you can consider it."

Han Yue replied, "Would you like me to set up two tents for you so you can experience a different atmosphere?"

Ji Hancheng: "Keep it for yourself. Don't waste the money you spent so much brainpower to swindle. People aren't always brain-dead. What if they recover their brains one day? Then you won't have anyone left to swindle. Use it sparingly."

Han Yue knew he was referring to Lu Jinnan's money and the photos. He shrugged dismissively, leaned back lazily in his chair, and said to his sister beside him, "Have you had enough fun? It's 12 o'clock. I don't have money to buy you skincare products."

Han Guoguo looked at the scene before her and knew that going to the next venue was not a realistic option. It was indeed more comfortable to be single; she could do whatever she wanted.

However, I was quite surprised that Ji Hancheng liked Yao Yao.

The world is so big that anything can be strange if you have a vivid imagination.

Fortunately, she was quite resilient; when she saw Ji Hancheng with his arm around Tang Junyao's waist, she only paused for a few seconds in shock.

Tang Junyao is beautiful. When she first saw her in Lancheng, she felt that this girl deserved to be treated well. She just didn't expect that Ji Hancheng would choose her.

Han Yue noticed a burning gaze and turned to ask Lan Yunxi across from him, "What's wrong?"

Lan Yunxi shook her head, her cheeks slightly flushed, "It's nothing."

Just when Han Yue thought the girl opposite him wouldn't say anything more, Lan Yunxi sincerely complimented him, "You're so handsome."

Han Yue was taken aback by the unexpected praise, and the toothpick he was holding fell to the ground. A few seconds later, he calmly replied, "I already know that without you telling me."

Tang Junyao: "........."

Su Xue: "..............."

Han Guoguo didn't interrupt, her gaze shifting back and forth between Han Yue and Xi Xi.

Lan Yunxi smiled and said, "Oppa, it seems like we have the same taste."

Han Yue: ".........."

Xi Xi originally wanted to ask him if he had a girlfriend. If he did, she wouldn't be a third party. Lan Yunxi wouldn't do anything that went against morality.

The tea party ended abruptly with the arrival of two uninvited men.

Tang Junyao arrived in Su Xue's car, but Lu Jinnan drove it back.

Lan Yunxi sat in the back seat of the black Maybach, Ji Hancheng sat in the passenger seat, and Tang Junyao was at the helm. "Did Han Yue call you, or did my bodyguard tell you?"

Ji Hancheng said calmly, "My people will never betray your whereabouts; they will only protect you. You don't need to feel guilty about that."

Then it was undoubtedly Han Yue who made the call.

Lan Yunxi, who was behind, was thinking about something. She leaned closer to the person in front and whispered, "Brother-in-law, can I ask you a question?"

Ji Hancheng turned slightly to look at the back seat, his tone still relatively gentle, "What do you want to ask?"

Lan Yunxi took a deep breath and scratched behind her ear. "Does Han Yue oppa have a girlfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Hancheng immediately looked at Tang Junyao in the driver's seat, his eyes half-closed, trying to find out the truth.

Tang Junyao nodded, indicating that was the case.

Half a second later, he smiled, a smile full of meaning. I originally thought that Xi Xi at the bar was just praising Han Yue for being handsome, but it turns out there was another layer of meaning: "He's single."

Those three words made Lan Yunxi loosen her grip on her skirt, and the gloom in her heart dissipated. "Really? Does he have someone he likes?"

Ji Hancheng answered very seriously, "No, you like him?"

Without pausing for a moment, Lan Yunxi said, "Yes, brother-in-law, I want to pursue him."

Upon hearing this, Ji Hancheng choked on his own saliva. He was shocked by this sudden news. "Cough cough cough, you are very brave. I wish you success, brother-in-law."

Xi Xi was overjoyed; finally, someone wasn't trying to persuade her to give up. "Brother-in-law, aren't you going to try and persuade me?"

Ji Hancheng answered seriously, with a smile playing on his lips, "I just like you, there's no reason needed. It's all about how you do it, just like I like your sister for no reason. Your brother-in-law thinks highly of you."

Tang Junyao: You're chatting with Xixi, why are you dragging me into this?

She turned and glared at the man who couldn't keep his mouth shut, but the man who was glared at was actually quite happy and gave her a flirty wink.

Tang Junyao's ears instantly flushed red.

Lan Yunxi was in a good mood after receiving Ji Hancheng's reply, feeling that her plan could succeed, and she was full of fighting spirit.

Lan Yunxi took out her phone and said to Ji Hancheng in front of her, "Brother-in-law, let's add each other on WeChat."

Without hesitation, Ji Hancheng took out his phone, opened the QR code for Xixi to scan, and the two became friends in a few seconds.

The quirky Xi Xi sent a message: Brother-in-law, let's make a trade. You can tell me where Han Yue oppa is from now on, and I'll move into my brother's room tonight.

Ji Hancheng, in the passenger seat, glanced at the new message and smiled. This sister-in-law was so sensible and cute. He replied with one hand: Deal. I'll tell you everything I know.

Xi Xi posted another crying emoji: Brother-in-law, I made a solemn pledge to win over Oppa before Lan Cheng.

Ji Hancheng glanced at the message, understood immediately, and replied: Just tell your brother-in-law what you need.

Xixi replied with an emoji, a little penguin spinning around: Brother-in-law, you're awesome.

Ji Hancheng sent a handshake emoji, which was considered a confirmation of cooperation.

Tang Junyao, who was focused on driving, was completely unaware of the little discussion the two had made in private; she simply assumed they had added each other as friends.
