Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 184 Is This Uncle?

“These conspirators had to know where you fell.” Lang Ruoxian narrows his eyes. “Who else knew it besides the rescue?”

Tang Cao says casually, “Our family knew!”

Then his expression changes.

“Sister?” Tang Cao looks terrified. “Does... Does our family have a mole?”

Lang Ruoxian and Yan Hua look at each other. Then Lang Ruoxian asks him, “Do you mean your Tang Family has a mole?”

“Of course it is not in our family, the mole must be in my eldest uncle’s family.” Tang Cao says, “Our family is simple, including my father, my mother, my sister, me, and my grandma.” Then he thinks of something and says to Yan Hua, “Grandma thought you were dead and she was so sad. She has been sick for months, then she lived in the Qingliang Temple.”

Although Yan Hua does not remember, she always has more patience with the elderly. She asks, “Why did she move to the temple?”

“She wants to pray for you...” Tang Cao scratches his head. “Sister, after the accident, our family becomes vegetarian. Mom said that we should accumulate morality for you, so that you could be born from a good family in your next life.”

Yan Hua’s eyes turn red. Her confused and guilty eyes make Lang Ruoxian take pity on her.

“It’s not your fault.” Because Tang Cao occupies the sofa, Lang Ruoxian half-squats on the ground and hugs Yan Hua. He comforts her, “You want to go back, but you don’t remember the way home.”

Tang Cao pouts, trying to push the man away. But when he sees Yan Hua sadly relying on Lang Ruoxian’s arms, he draws back his hands.

“Sister, don’t be sad! Does everything go well now?” Tang Cao takes Yan Hua’s hand and shakes several times. “We can pretend that you just study abroad for a few years. Right?”

However, Tang Cao complains secretly that others who study abroad won’t bring a husband and a child back.

“I’m fine. Let’s go on.” Yan Hua sniffs back a tear and asks, “You said the mole might be from Eldest Uncle’s family. Right?”

“Yes. Because his family is so large.”

When they went skiing, their four family members went there. But more than a dozen of Eldest Uncle’s family went there, not including the bodyguards.

“The family of two cousins-in-law also went there, including the family of Eldest Uncle’s wife.” Tang Cao shows the whites of his eyes. “They usually want to find opportunities to attach themselves to us. We decided to bring them to play abroad at that time. They of course came together.”

Lang Ruoxian frowns, “Do you remember who were there? We need to check one by one.”

“Sister, do you also think the mole is in Eldest Uncle’s family?” Tang Cao deliberately ignores Lang Ruoxian. He says to Yan Hua, “Although those idiots have always been against us, they don’t have the courage to hurt you. Besides, you as a girl have no conflicts of interest with them.”

Yan Hua hears something in his words. She asks, “Well, is our relationship with Eldest Uncle’s family not good?”

“We have no conflicts with the elders, and Eldest Uncle really likes you!” Tang Cao says proudly. “He likes you more than his two daughters!”

“So his daughters are jealous of me because I am favored by their father?”

Tang Cao hesitates to say, “Emmm... Yes!”

“Tell the truth. Otherwise we can’t find the murderer.” Yan Hua pats him, “Just say. Don’t worry!”

“You must also investigate the situation at our home. Right?” Tang Cao finally says to Lang Ruoxian. He is not stupid.

Lang Ruoxian deliberately asks himself to come. It’s obvious that Lang Ruoxian has investigated the Yanjing’s situation before. But Tang Cao doesn’t realize what Lang Ruoxian has known.

“I don’t know how much you found. The reputation of our Tang Family’s second branch in Yanjing is... How should I describe it?” Tang Cao tilts his head and continues to say. “Anyway, it is not good.”

Lang Ruoxian says directly, “I know. Everyone says that you are incapable.”

“... Why don’t you say my sister?” Tang Cao is angry. “They think she is just a stupid beautiful woman without a word in her breast!”

After Tang Cao finishes, he immediately covers his mouth and apologizes to Yan Hua, “Sister... Sister, I don’t mean that, I...”

“I know.” Yan Hua interrupts him. “I’ve read the information. But I don’t think I am a stupid beautiful woman.”

Yan Hua is very strange about that. Although she has no talent in business and she can’t study it well, her intelligence is not so bad.

“Hua is smarter than the average person.” Lang Ruoxian is really clear about that.

Tang Cao stares at him and yells, “Of course, my sister is the smartest in our family!” Then he probably thinks something wrong. He adds a sentence, “So is my mother!”

“Eldest Uncle has two daughters...”

“Right! We have a younger cousin and an elder cousin.” Tang Cao shakes his head and says. “The elder cousin marries in Wu Family. Wu Qi belongs to Wu Family, but he is from a collateral branch.”

“The younger cousin...” Tang Cao shows the whites of his eyes. “She’s really a super idiot. She is so stupid but she dares to blame you everywhere.”

Yan Hua blinks, “I have a bad relationship with her?”

“It seems not really bad. But all persons in the circle know that she is jealous of you.” Tang Cao thinks for a while, then he says, “But she should not have that courage to hurt you.”

Lang Ruoxian reminds him, “But she was the last person to see Hua.”

“But she couldn’t make such a big plan alone.” Yan Hua shakes her head. “If it is relative to her, there must be someone behind her!”

Tang Cao looks at Yan Hua and Lang Ruoxian, and finally asks Yan Hua, “Sister, the reason why you’ve talked so much is that you don’t plan to go back with me. Right?”

“... No.” Yan Hua is stunned for a while. Then she explains to him, “I want to go back. But I don’t know how to go back.”

“You can go back anytime for it’s your own home.” Tang Cao is anxious.

Lang Ruoxian says casually, “For the present Hua, this is her home.”

Tang Cao is angry.

“Don’t worry. Let me think about it again.” Yan Hua touches Tang Cao’s head to comfort him. She says, “If I go back now without knowing anything or anyone, I won’t know what is going on when I am bullied. Do you ever think about that?”

“Who dares to bully you?” Tang Cao pats his thigh angrily, “I will kill him!”

“Is it not enough to plan Hua’s death?” Lang Ruoxian questions Tang Cao. He certainly does not want Yan Hua to be taken away by Tang Cao. Anyway, she only needs to know who she is. She belongs to Lang Family when she married him.

Obviously, Tang Cao thinks about it, too. He becomes so anxious. Yan Hua finds the time is not early. So she lets the house maid prepare lunch. When they are at the table, Shu Sheng comes over and brings the test results.

“I’ve told you it was no problem!” Tang Cao glances at the result, which shows that he is 95% to be Yan Hua’s brothers.

Tang Cao decides to live in Yan Hua’s house and not to leave. He even asks Shu Sheng to help him pick up his luggage as if they are acquaintances.

“You tell Wu Qi that I really like your boss as I first see him. So I want to live with him to make friendly contacts!”

Shu Sheng twitches his mouth and goes away. When he arrives at the hotel and tells to Wu Qi, Wu Qi is shocked.

“What are you talking about? Why doesn’t he come back?”

“Mr. Tang said that he wanted to live in our boss’s house.” Shu Sheng hands him the mobile phone and says, “Director Wu, please answer the phone and listen to him.”

Wu Qi’s face turns dark when he hangs up. He can only watch Shu Sheng to take Tang Cao’s luggage away. When Shu Sheng goes out, Zhang Mingxia is worried to ask him, “How can Mr. Tang know Lang Ruoxian?”

“How can I know that?” Wu Qi walked a few steps and says, “Lang Ruoxian has no contact with Yanjing. It is estimated that he wants to take the opportunity to know Tang Family after knowing Tang Cao’s identity.”

“This is no problem. But Mr. Tang...” Zhang Mingxia says strangely. “How could he live in a stranger’s house he just met?”

Wu Qi snorts, “He must plan it!”

“Then the thing about us and Lang Consortium...”

“What are you afraid of?” Wu Qi sits down and says, “We obey the formal procedures. No one can blame us.”

But Zhang Mingxia says, “I know. But I always feel terrible in my heart. It seems that something bad is going to happen.”

“You women always like to entertain foolish ideas.” Wu Qi says with anger. “Well, the girls in your family shouldn’t always inquire about Tang Cao. He’s not the kind of people they can marry.”

Zhang Mingxia pouts, “But I can marry you.”

“Oh, you really lift me!” Wu Qi sneers her, “Can I compare with Mr. Tang?”

Zhang Mingxia does not say anything.

Before she married Wu Qi, she really thought that since Wu Qi was Wu Family’s relative, it’s reasonable that everyone should take care of each other because they were family. But after marrying, she begins to know that there is a huge gap between the direct line and the collateral line.

“In any case, you should manage your family.” Wu Qi warns her, “You know Mr. Tang’s character. It’s hard to marry into Tang Family. Moreover, if the Tang Family’s second branch becomes angry, even that man will be afraid of it.”

Zhang Mingxia nods. Although the Tang Family’s second branch has no real power, Tang Cao’s grandma is still alive. It’s said that Tang Cao’s grandfather once helped that man who is in the highest position now. That man always respects Tang Cao’s grandma.

Besides, Tang Cao’s grandma is that man’s aunt.

“Who are you?” Gungun asks. When he goes back from school, he sees a man staying in his house who is very similar to his mother.

Tang Cao also stars at him and asks, “How do you look exactly like Lang Ruoxian?”

“I’m of course the same as Dad!” Gungun says so proudly, “Dad looks good!”

“Doesn’t Mom look good?”

“... She also looks good!”

Gungun bites his fingers, “We all look good!”

“Am I good-looking?” Tang Cao asks him shamelessly.

“Yes!” Gungun is very honest to say, “You look like my mother.”

Tang Cao picks him up and tells him, “I am not others. I am your uncle!”

“Uncle?” Gungun first looks at him, then looks at Yan Hua.

Yan Hua nods.

“Is it... like that Sister Xiaojiu calls Uncle Fei?”

Tang Cao is confused. What is this child talking about?

“Yes, that’s true.” Yan Hua smiles. “But this is Gungun’s uncle. He is only your uncle, not someone else.”

Gungun’s eyes suddenly light up, and he hugs Tang Cao and kisses him. He calls, “Uncle!”

Tang Cao is moved by him. He thought that he would not like his sister’s kid before because she was pregnant when she lost her memory. When he finds Gungun is the same as Lang Ruoxian, he is even more uncomfortable. But he now changes his opinion when Gungun calls him.

“Oh! Good boy. Call me again.”

“Uncle!”

“God! I really feel better. Baby, please call me again. Call me ‘Good Uncle’!”

“Good...”

“Gungun.” Lang Ruoxian stops Gungun and takes him away. Then he looks at the dissatisfied Tang Cao and says, “Where is Gungun’s gift at the first meeting?”

Tang Cao is shocked.

“I... he...” Stuttering for a long time, Tang Cao finds that it is indeed wrong for him. How can he not give the gift to his nephew at the first meeting!

He takes out his wallet and pulls out a black card. He says, “It belongs to my nephew! Just use it casually.”

“Password.” Lang Ruoxian puts the card into Gungun arms.

“Eight, eight, eight, eight, eight, eight!”

The password is so simple.
