Chapter 235: Chapter 235: The Love of His Future Parents-in-law

"Don’t want to work overtime?"

"Is that what the rest of you want, too?"

Jiang Fan scanned the room.

"No, no, she just has to go meet her boyfriend!"

"That’s right, her boyfriend’s been waiting downstairs for three hours."

"Aww, and he’s holding a bouquet of roses."

The cheesy remarks from the other girls made one of them blush as red as an apple.

She looked like she wanted to bury her head under the desk.

"Hey, stop saying things like that!"

"It’s so embarrassing!"

Jiang Fan couldn’t help but almost laugh out loud.

"Since our comrade is in need, we won’t work overtime today. However..."

Jiang Fan drew out his words.

"She has a boyfriend, so I can understand her not working overtime. But what are you single dogs planning to do?"

"Are you going to follow them around and get a taste of their sweet, sweet love?"

With that one sentence, the brilliant smiles on the girls’ faces instantly froze.

They all turned to glare at Jiang Fan, their expressions making it clear they wanted to take a bite out of him.

"What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and get off work!"

After saying that, Jiang Fan turned and bolted.

’It’s better to offend a villain than a woman. I got my jab in, now it’s time to run.’

But the moment he yanked open the office door and rushed out, he became the center of attention.

Every single employee in the group, especially in the sales department, was there.

Not one person was missing. They were all working diligently, and their eyes locked onto him the instant he burst out.

"Shouldn’t you all be off work? What’s with this rat race?"

"Wouldn’t you rather be at home with your husband, your kids, and a warm bed?"

"Wouldn’t it be nice to be cuddling your boyfriend to sleep? Don’t tell me you don’t have one?"

Jiang Fan blinked, backing away as he spoke.

Before anyone could react, he bolted out of the company.

"What the hell? What kind of bullshit was Jiang spouting?!"

"So what if I don’t have a boyfriend! Can’t I just get myself off? Can’t I use an electric blanket?!"

"What’s a boyfriend? All I know is that tonight, I’ll be bestowing my favor upon a cucumber..."

"Hehe, you could just slap yourself with a shoe insole."

"If that doesn’t work, you can rub some salt on it."

Sometimes, the topics women discuss among themselves are far more explosive and racy than what men talk about.

This was especially true at a company like Xuerong, which was full of women.

So the topics of conversation were exceptionally open.

"Tsk, Jiang makes fun of you, and you all start getting off on it yourselves."

"Didn’t you see Jiang already ran away?!"

"That’s right! That bastard was just mocking us!"

"This is intolerable! Sisters, let me go first! I’m going to drain him dry!"

"Nan, your abacus beads are about to pop off and hit me in the face!"

...

"Huh?? Who the fuck touched my car?"

As soon as he got to the underground garage and found his car, he noticed something was wrong.

He had only been upstairs for two or three hours. How did his car, which had been covered in dust, suddenly become so clean?

It looked like it had been cleaned inside and out.

But he clearly remembered not having washed his car for a long time; it had been filthy.

Puzzled, he sat in the driver’s seat and prepared to check the dashcam footage.

On the recording, a person in black, carrying professional-looking tools, washed his car thoroughly, inside and out.

This person had a clear objective, heading straight for his car.

They wore sunglasses and a mask, making it impossible to see who they were.

However, after washing the car, they left quickly without doing anything else strange.

"Damn it, did I run into a psycho, or someone with a car-washing fetish?"

But since they hadn’t done anything malicious, Jiang Fan didn’t worry about it.

’Someone washed your car for you. What’s there to be unhappy about?’

Hopping in his car, Jiang Fan drove straight to Li Muwan’s place.

He was actually very curious now about what his "cheap" father-in-law had prepared for him.

He had even arranged for someone to deliver it personally.

Just as he parked his car, he spotted Li Muwan, who had come down in her pajamas to take out the trash.

Their eyes met. "You’re back late?"

Li Muwan was the first to speak.

"Things got a little busy at the office, so I stayed a bit longer."

"What did my ’cheap’ father-in-law bring for me?"

Jiang Fan walked up to her. Li Muwan casually tossed the trash bag into a bin, and they walked upstairs side by side.

"Get lost! What do you mean, ’cheap’ father-in-law? If he heard you say that, I don’t know how hurt he’d be!"

"What he sent you this time is really something special. He doesn’t even have much of it himself."

Hearing that from Li Muwan made Jiang Fan even more curious.

"Why don’t you go up and see for yourself? My mom sent you something, too."

At this, Li Muwan sounded a little jealous. Her parents had always treated her well, but they’d never gone so far as to have someone personally deliver things to her.

At most, they would call from time to time to check in.

’But now, ever since Jiang Fan appeared, they’re sending things over with a special delivery. If this continues for a while longer, are they going to end up giving him the entire family fortune?’

At this thought, Li Muwan turned and shot a glare at Jiang Fan, her pace quickening.

Jiang Fan himself was completely bewildered.

’What was that for? What did I do?’

Baffled by the glare, he couldn’t help but scratch his head.

"It’s just that time of the month. I get it, I get it."

Jiang Fan muttered this under his breath behind her, and Li Muwan’s temples throbbed upon hearing it. She really wanted to turn around, pounce on him, and take a good, hard bite.

However, she suppressed the urge.

When Jiang Fan entered the room and sat down on the sofa, he finally saw the items she had already laid out in the living room.

"This is..."

Staring at the items on the table, Jiang Fan’s heart skipped a beat. Back when he was trying to impress his "cheap" father-in-law, he had crammed a ton of knowledge about tea.

"That’s right. Wuyi Mountain Da Hong Pao Tea! From the mother trees!"

Li Muwan nodded, confirming his suspicion.

"Holy shit!!"

Jiang Fan nearly jumped off the sofa.

He knew his father-in-law was influential, but he had no idea he was *this* influential!

This was tea from the original mother trees of Wuyi Mountain Da Hong Pao. The annual yield was tiny, and it was all specially supplied to the higher-ups.

For him to have the connections to get his hands on this... he was definitely someone with incredible reach.

"This... this stuff is too valuable. I’m not that big of a tea drinker, so it’d be a waste on me. You should keep it here."
