Chapter 48

Jiangcheng, Tang Family Villa.

Tang Bingyan sat on the sofa, radiating a gloomy and cold aura.

"Tang Zong, you..."

A Wei observed her expression and immediately understood that the scumbag Xu Tian must have caused trouble again.

However, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a sound from the villa's entrance.

"Wife, I'm home."

As soon as Xu Tian entered, he noticed the expression on A Wei's face, which clearly showed he wanted to kill him.

He paused for a moment.

The next moment, he guessed that Xu Rixin must have complained to his wife again.

Immediately, Xu Tian took two quick steps to the sofa, placed the snack box in his hand on the coffee table, and crouched beside Tang Bingyan, saying seriously:

"Wife, I have something to report to you."

Rather than letting his wife be disappointed in him because of a villain's slander, it was better to confess proactively.

That was the logic of "confession leads to leniency."

Tang Bingyan stared at Xu Tian expressionlessly.

"What is it?"

Xu Rixin's message had a significant impact on her.

Just a moment ago, she had almost blurted out that Xu Tian should never go to the company again.

But seeing Xu Tian return home on time after work, she didn't know why, but she dismissed that thought.

She could feel Xu Tian's changes during this period, but she was even more afraid that these were all means for Xu Tian to get rid of her.

Tang Bingyan smiled bitterly in her heart, never expecting she would have a time when she was walking on thin ice.

Then let's give him one more chance.

If Xu Tian really couldn't resist the temptation...

Thinking of this, various complex emotions surged in Tang Bingyan's beautiful eyes.

Finally, she sighed in her heart.

Forget it, we'll see when the time comes...

"Wife, today I represented the Xu family to discuss business and met a female client. After the contract was discussed, she actually said she liked me!"

Xu Tian's expression was very complicated.

"I rejected her directly, saying I had a wife. I said my wife was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, even a hundred times better than a celebrity, but she didn't believe me!"

"Wife, do I look like a man who doesn't have a fairy-like wife?"

Tang Bingyan: "..."

She didn't expect Xu Tian to confess proactively. Besides being surprised, she didn't know what to say to this rainbow-fart-like flattery.

And Xu Tian, as if he didn't notice Tang Bingyan's complex expression, continued:

"To make her believe me, I said I could bring my wife to meet her."

"Wife, wife, do you have anything to do tomorrow?"

"If you're free, can you accompany me to meet that female client so she can be convinced?"

On the side, A Wei watched Xu Tian in a daze.

Let Tang Zong meet a female client?

What is he trying to do?

Is he uncomfortable if he doesn't make Tang Zong angry for a day?

However, just as A Wei was prepared for Tang Bingyan to lose her temper, he saw their Tang Zong not only not angry but asking with some surprise.

"You want me to go with you to see her?"

"Yes!"

Xu Tian nodded, but then he added very understandingly: "But I know you're usually very busy. If you don't have time, I'll go reject her. Anyway, I've already explained clearly that I'm a married man. Whether she believes it or not, at worst..."

"What time tomorrow?"

Tang Bingyan interrupted Xu Tian directly.

"Is six o'clock okay?" Xu Tian was slightly stunned, then immediately added, "Let's go to that Western restaurant you like."

"You actually remember?"

Tang Bingyan was a bit distracted.

She had originally thought that since he hated her so much, he wouldn't pay attention to her preferences, let alone remember the significance of this Western restaurant to them.

"Of course I have to remember Wife's preferences."

Actually, he felt a bit guilty. In his previous life, he was thinking every moment about how to get rid of Tang Bingyan's entanglement and didn't remember her preferences at all.

The reason he remembered this Western restaurant was also because after their divorce in his previous life, Tang Bingyan repeatedly chose that place as their meeting spot.

Then, Xu Tian smiled and picked up the snack box on the coffee table.

"Wife, I bought these rose cakes specifically for you. Would you like to try them?"

A Wei, standing on the side, shook off all his goosebumps.

Where did this scumbag learn to be so cheesy?

Also, doesn't he know Tang Zong doesn't usually like sweets!

However, just as A Wei intended to go over and dispose of the box of snacks for Tang Bingyan, he saw Tang Bingyan pick up a rose cake, put it to her lips, and take a light bite.

"Is it good?" Xu Tian asked expectantly.

"It's good."

Tang Bingyan nodded and finished the entire rose cake with a noble and elegant posture.

A Wei: "..."

Love can actually make people lose their sense of taste.

For the first time, he felt that standing here was a bit redundant.

Early the next morning, Xu Tian called An Rongxuan to set the time and place for their meeting that evening.

An Rongxuan had originally thought Xu Tian would drag his feet to find someone to play his fake wife, but she didn't expect him to send an invitation so quickly, so she naturally accepted it happily.

She was really curious about what the woman Xu Tian found, who was prettier and richer than her, actually looked like.

Driven by curiosity, An Rongxuan arrived at the Saint Laurent Western Restaurant half an hour early.

At 5:50, Xu Tian walked into the shop.

"President An, you're here so early."

Xu Tian sat opposite An Rongxuan and said with a smile.

"I came out to discuss business this afternoon and happened to be close to this restaurant."

An Rongxuan raised an eyebrow and stared at Xu Tian, asking: "Where's your wife?"

"I told her to be here at six, she should be here soon."

Xu Tian glanced at his watch and added: "But my wife is busy with work, she might be a little late."

"Forget it, Xu Tian, that kind of excuse can't fool me."

An Rongxuan smiled lightly, as if she had already seen through Xu Tian: "Are you going to say later that your wife is working overtime and can't come today?"

An Rongxuan hadn't believed Xu Tian really had a wife to begin with, and seeing him arrive alone now, she was even more certain of her guess.

"You went to such lengths to reject me, even telling such an outrageous lie. Am I really that unbearable, that you don't even have the interest to get to know me?"

As she spoke, An Rongxuan's face darkened.

She was never one to pester others, but this time she was truly angry, angry that Xu Tian used this method to brush her off.

"No... I really have a wife!"

Xu Tian felt he was more wronged than Dou E.

He had even asked the busy Tang Bingyan to come out, why wouldn't An Rongxuan believe him?

An Rongxuan snorted coldly: "Keep making it up!"

After saying this, An Rongxuan didn't speak again, just quietly waiting for Xu Tian's so-called wife to arrive.

A few minutes later, An Rongxuan raised her hand to check her watch, then turned the face toward Xu Tian and asked: "It's six o'clock now, where is your wife?"

"I'll call and ask."

Just as Xu Tian took his phone out of his coat pocket, preparing to make a call, the phone rang first.
