Chapter 12 A Doting Husband

  • “Okay, sir. Please wait for a moment. Let me handle the procedures for you right away!”
  • Holding the black bank card in her hand, the salesperson rushed over to the counter.
  • The sales lady with the rotten, scornful attitude stood beside Li Hang, stupefied.
  • Huh? Is this real?
  • Impossible!
  • Then, do I need to drink the glass polish?
  • It’s lethal!
  • What do, what do I do?!?
  • At this moment, the other salesperson had already brought the documents over and requested for Li Hang’s signature.
  • Seeing Li Hang had actually bought the car, Xu Muqing quickly interjected.
  • “Where did you get so much money from?”
  • “Is this a lot?”
  • Those words almost obliterated any consciousness within the two female salespersons next to him.
  • “It’s only seven hundred thousand, not that much different from buying a pack of instant noodles.”
  • “If you like this design, why not we buy all six colors. Then, you can change the color daily, or according to your mood.”
  • Just what is a tycoon?
  • Just what is a sweet, extravagant, doting husband?
  • Just take a look!
  • A role model!
  • Under Xu Muqing’s strong objection, the result was ‘regretful’ indeed for Li Hang.
  • Li Hang was forced into a compromise of just buying one white Mercedes.
  • He had initially intended to buy one each for Xu Xiaoyang, Liu Yufen, and Xu Haoran.
  • This way, there was no need to squeeze in one car to and from work.
  • This would create the perfect atmosphere for him to enjoy a world with only Xu Muqing.
  • His wife was too frugal.
  • How could she not allow him to splurge?
  • After the procedures were completed, the car’s engine was started immediately.
  • Right before they left, Xu Muqing suddenly remembered that their motorcycle was parked at the corner of the store.
  • “What about the motorcycle?”
  • At this time, the saleswoman who had previously scorned Xu Muqing was sneakily trying to escape.
  • “Stop.”
  • The saleswoman froze in her steps!
  • She turned around and her eyes were begging for mercy. With a trembling voice, she muttered, “Yes... sir?”
  • “Glass polish is inedible! It’s lethal poison!”
  • Li Hang tossed a hundred-dollar bill.
  • The address of Xu Xiaoyang’s house was written on it.
  • Flatly, he said, “Follow this address and ride the motorcycle back.”
  • ……
  • Fangfang Towers was an office building with more than ten floors. It was quite an aged building.
  • The exterior wall was thoroughly mottled.
  • Xu Xiaoyang’s company, Jiaoyang Corporation, situated its headquarters here.
  • Slowly, Xu Muqing drove the car towards the gate of the office building.
  • Until now, everything still felt unreal.
  • Even as she held the steering wheel of the brand-new car, she felt as if a dense fog was clouding her sense of reality.
  • Xu Muqing turned to Li Hang and found him eating something happily.
  • She raised his brows and asked, “What are you eating?”
  • Li Hang quickly swallowed the sweet chocolate in his mouth.
  • “No, I didn’t eat anything.”
  • “I saw you eating.”
  • The corner of Li Hang’s mouth curled up as he teased, “Shall I open my mouth to prove it?”
  • Just as she was about to refute him, something was thrown out from the first floor, flying straight at them. And Xu Muqing quickly reacted and stepped on the brake.
  • She saw a few security guards tossing out a pile of documents, scattering it about.
  • Immediately afterwards, Li Hang and Xu Muqing heard Xu Xiaoyang’s exasperated shouting.
  • “Don’t throw them, don’t throw them.”
  • “I have already told you that our company will be able to pay the fees immediately.”
  • Then, a few young men pushed Xu Xiaoyang out on his wheelchairs.
  • They bent down and picked up the documents that the security had thrown on the ground one by one.
  • With each page they picked up, the resentment on their faces thickened!
  • Xu Xiaoyang faced a middle-aged man with a big belly.
  • He was the manager of this building, Chen Yong.
  • Chen Yong folded his arms and stood in front of Xu Xiaoyang.
  • The man lifted his chin as he glanced downwards.
  • His lips curled into a twisted sneer.
  • Contempt.
  • Disdain!
  • “I have been a manager in this building for more than ten years, and I have never seen a person like you.”
  • “Xu Xiaoyang, if you have no money, you have no money. Why are you stubbornly staying here, did you think you will be able to afford it some day!?”
  • “Throughout the whole office building, there isn’t a person who doesn’t know that your company has gone bankrupt.”
  • Chen Yong stood in front of Xu Xiaoyang.
  • He stretched out his hand and thrust his finger at Xu Xiaoyang’s forehead.
  • “I am telling you, out of my great kindness, if you don’t empty your things in the office within ten minutes, I’ll have someone throw all the trash in your office out of the window!”
  • At the end of the clamoring, Chen Yong’s finger had scratched Xu Xiaoyang’s forehead!
  • “You crippled scum! You hear me?!”
  • Upon this sight, Xu Muqing hurriedly pushed open the car’s door and bolted forward.
  • When she got out of the car, Li Hang took out his phone and sent a text message.
  • The message was simple and concise.
  • “Within three minutes, buy Fangfang Towers.”
  • Xu Muqing stormed to Chen Yong.
  • “Manager Chen, don’t you think this too much!?”
  • The moment Chen Yong saw Xu Muqing, his eyes lit up.
  • “Oh, isn’t this Miss Xu?”
  • “Did the operation make you much more gorgeous than before?”
  • “Miss Xu, now that your company can’t even pay the rent, you are practically unemployed.”
  • As he spoke, Chen Yong’s brows slightly raised.
  • He cast a very lecherous gaze as he sized Xu Muqing up.
  • Then, a wretched grin widened on his greasy face.
  • “Do you plan to find a job?”
  • “Come, let me introduce a good one for you.”
  • Bam----
  • Bam----
  • Suddenly, loud blasts of car horns shattered the tense atmosphere.
  • Li Hang slowly got down from the car.
  • He did not walk quickly, slow even.
  • But with each step, his pace was like a thud to everyone’s heartstrings.
  • Within that short instant, Li Hang drew all the attention onto himself.
  • At the same time, Chen Yong received a call.
  • On the phone, Chen Yong’s Boss was brimming with excitement.
  • “Fangfang Towers has just been bought over by a tycoon!”
  • “His car is downstairs. It’s a brand-new Mercedes-Benz! It’s not even registered yet!”
  • “You go up and wait for me. I’ll be there soon!”
  • Chen Yong immediately bowed his head and rushed forward.
  • “Boss!”
  • “Welcome, Boss!”
  • Li Hang stopped in front of Chen Yong.
  • His eyes were condescending and indifferent.
  • “Are you the manager of this building?”
  • “Yes, I am!”
  • Li Hang asked again, “You worked here for more than ten years?”
  • “Yes, yes!”
  • “Boss, I have worked here diligently for more than ten years. I am very clear about everything up and down in this building...”
  • “You are fired.”
  • The sudden decision stupefied Chen Yong.
  • Li Hang strolled to Xu Muqing, and he picked up a file from the ground. Then, he handed it to Xu Xiaoyang.
  • He said with a bright smile, “Pa, from now on, this building is yours.”
  • ……
  • After dinner, in the living room.
  • The Xu family of four were sitting around the dining table.
  • All of them stared at Li Hang, who was sitting directly across.
  • Finally, Liu Yufen broke the silence.
  • “Xiao Hang, how much money do you have?”
  • “Aren’t you a doctor?”
  • “A doctor can’t make so much money, right?”
  • The moment she spoke, she asked three things.
  • On the other hand, Xu Xiaoyang’s excitement had not yet subsided.
  • His company had been a tenant in Fangfang Towers for more than ten years. He had never thought that this office building would one day become his!
  • This son-in-law, who married into his family, had talents hidden deep within!
  • Before Li Hang spoke, Xu Haoran suddenly clapped his hands together with a loud smack.
  • “Sister, brother-in-law is the god of gambling!”
  • “All this money must have been made from gambling!”
  • “That time, he just spent a few minutes and POOF! It’s tens of millions!”
  • Just as Li Hang struggled to find an explanation, his brother-in-law found a convenient excuse in his stead.
  • He did not refute it. Instead, he went with the flow and rounded things up.
  • Xu Haoran ballooned Li Hang’s achievement, boasting and, pushing him closer and closer to a Godly existence.
  • But after Liu Yufen heard it, she was not happy that Li Hang was loaded.
  • Instead, she looked at him and said earnestly.
  • “Gambling is not a good thing. You must never do it again.”
  • “And even if you have money, you can’t spend so extravagantly.”
  • Then, Li Hang grabbed his head and made a silly smile.
  • “Ma! I have too much money in my pocket, and I’m panicking even as I burn through them.”
