Why? Didn’t I tell you through the phone? Because of you, Boss personally gave me half the day off!\" Tang Lang unconsciously touched his waist. Of course, it was not a gun; it was an electric baton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh…Second Senior Brother, what’s up with you? Did you hit your head during the fight with First Senior Brother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Lang looked at her, his grave eyes free of worldly desires. \"Commoners like you will never understand the feeling of wanting to become a commoner!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, Little Junior Sister, I’ve been meaning to ask you. What’s your relationship…with Lu Tingxiao? Is it a one-night stand? A multiple-night stand? Or are you his mistress?\" Tang Lang asked with great interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One-night stand? Multiple-night stand? He might as well say that they were friends with benefits!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi was annoyed. \"Nonsense, we’re in an actual, normal relationship!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my! Are you serious?\" Tang Lang was surprised. \"No wonder someone’s been going crazy recently…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone? Who are you talking about?\" Ning Xi faltered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one.\" Tang Lang brushed the topic aside and questioned, \"How long have you both been together?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi counted on her fingers. \"Uhm…it’s been three days, including today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, you guys started your relationship in D.C?\" Tang Lang was even more astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi rolled her eyes at him. \"That’s right. Haven’t you heard that trials and challenges will reveal true love?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Lang was speechless this time. If that certain someone knew that he had become her best support this round, that certain someone was going to be so frustrated…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi drummed her fingers on the table impatiently. \"It’s my turn to ask you questions now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want to know?\" Tang Lang raised his eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you suddenly working for Lu Tingxiao?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone wants their needs to be fulfilled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi thought about it. It seemed like Second Senior Brother needed Lu Tingxiao’s help and they both had agreed to some terms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi did not ask about the specifics of their deal. Sometimes, it was better knowing less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she straightforwardly announced, \"Actually, I’m here on business today. Second Senior Brother, are you interested in a part-time job?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Lang’s eyes shone with excitement. \"Oh, a part-time job? I’m interested! I’m short on cash now! Tang Ye closed all my old accounts! How ruthless of him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi exclaimed, \"He’s already being very kind for not killing you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me, what part-time job is it? Actually, no matter what it is, I’ll do it as long as I get paid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t agree so soon. I want you to teach a five-year-old boy kung fu. You have to seriously and genuinely teach him what you've got.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Lang brushed his bangs. \"A five-year-old kid? That's quite difficult, isn’t it? Whose kid is this? Important enough to have to ask me personally!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xi sipped her tea and simply said, \"My son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",594,"2026-06-06T10:49:01.289Z",1,"novelbin.me","3ec5ef0434287086bb601b92f692b3da8a1afcd17073f86417cbb1b0f1e24ffd","hidden-marriage-chapter-810","hidden-marriage-chapter-809",2163,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhidden-marriage-cover.jpg"]
