Mr. Wu blushed and was about to wave his hand.
Fade Chen smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll get you more fruit wine next time.
"Is it convenient?" Mr. Wu said, "By the way, tell me how much the wine costs. I'll pay you now."
Fade Chen waved his hand and said, "No, no. Mr Wu, I made the wine myself. It's just some ingredients. It isn't worth much. You don't have to be so polite with me."
"Thank you so much, Little Chen." Mr Wu's attitude became more enthusiastic.
Later, Mr Wu was happily chatting with Fade Chen, telling him all sorts of stories about his family, almost as if Fade was part of his family too.
Mindy Wu was serving tea and water with a dainty smile, she looked very virtuous. It was impossible to connect this demure demeanor with her glamorous and charming appearance.
As for the little girl Fish Song, she continued to follow Fade Chen around. She was pestering Fade Chen unendingly, and kept calling him 'Brother Superman' while playing happily.
A thought unconsciously entered Mr. Wu's mind. He looked at Fade Chen and asked, " Chen, you are not married yet, are you?"
"Eh?" Fade Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect Mr. Wu to suddenly ask this question.
Mr. Wu pointed to Mindy Wu beside him and said, "What do you think of Mindy Wu, Chen?"
"Ah!" This time, Fade Chen was even more surprised and completely confused.
Mr. Wu pulled Mindy Wu over and hurriedly said, "Chen, know that Mindy Wu is older than you are, and that she has a child. But look at her appearance. I think you know my family's condition. Although I've retired, my son is establishing a company that is of a big scale and doesn't need to worry about money. Besides, you and Fish are on good terms. I think it will be great if you two can get together.
Fade Chen was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Mr. Wu would suddenly matchmake him with his daughter this way.
Mindy Wu was also surprised, but the blush on her charming face made her even more attractive.
Even the little girl Fish Song clapped her hands and said, "Brother Superman, if you live with my mother, we can play together in future."
"What do you think, Chen?" Mr. Wu asked expectantly.
"This..." Fade Chen didn't know how to explain. He couldn't help but look at Quin Lin, who was next to him. However, Quin Lin looked indifferent as if she didn't care about how Fade Chen would choose. Mr. Wu thought that Fade Chen would not make a decision for now, so he added, "Chen, you can think about it when you go back. You can give me your answer next time. Mindy and I can wait."
Fade Chen grew troubled. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wu, no, I can't..."
"Chen, you don't like Mindy?" Mr. Wu asked. From NôvelDrama.Org.
Fade Chen quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I don't mean that!"
"Then why don't you agree? Or do you dislike Mindy for being old and divorced?" Mr. Wu asked.
"No, no..." Fade Chen felt that his tongue was knotted. He quickly smoothed his tongue and talked hastily, "Mr. Wu, understand your kindness. Mindy is also an excellent woman. But I'm married."
"What? You're married? When did you get married? With who?" Mr. Wu looked regretful.
Fade Chen looked at Quin Lin beside him and said, "We got married not long ago. She is my wife."
"What!" At this point, Mr Wu and Mindy Wu were both shocked and looked at them in surprise. "Quin Lin is your wife?"
Previously, when Fade Chen and Quin Lin announced their relationship in front of Howard Zhang, Mindy Wu and Mr. Wu was not around, so they did not know that the two were a couple. They thought they were just relatives or business partners.
Now, when they heard that Fade Chen was Quin Lin's husband, they were extremely shocked. After their surprise subsided, they felt a little embarrassed. After all, it was inappropriate for them to suggest that he marry somebody else in front of his wife.
Quin Lin, I was confused just now. I'm sorry." Mr. Wu apologized.
"Ms. Lin, my dad was joking. Please don't mind," Mindy Wu said in a hurry.
Quin Lin smiled and said, "Mr Wu and Mindy, you are too polite. I won't mind."
In the wake of this little confusion, Mr Wu could not bring himself to chat with Fade Chen any longer. He exchanged contact information with Fade Chen, then he let Quin Lin and Fade Chen leave.
Quin Lin got on to the car and returned home. She kept a straight face and said nothing along the way.
Fade Chen felt uneasy. He squeezed out a smile and said to Quin Lin, "Dear, why are you unhappy? Are you still angry with what happened just now?"
"I'm not angry!" Quin Lin rolled her eyes at Fade Chen and turned around to enter the house.
Fade Chen quickly followed her and said, "Are you jealous? Mr. Wu did not figure out the situation correctly and made a mistake."
"I have an agreement with you. You can do whatever you want. I don't care. How can I be jealous?" Quin Lin said bluntly and walked upstairs.
Fade Chen looked at his wife's cold face and sighed softly. Instead of following her, he turned around and walked away.
Quin Lin went upstairs, walked into the house, slammed the door, and then collapsed on her bed. Her cold face suddenly became full of jealousy. She whispered, "I really don't know what's so good about this guy. He even made Mr. Wu take a fancy to him and introduce his own daughter to him."
"Humph, he had been staring at her and almost drooled when he saw Mindy Wu."
"I think if I hadn't been there, he would have agreed instantly. After all, that was Mindy Wu. She has money, power, and a pretty face. Which man would not be tempted?"
"What's more, this guy is a fool. He even asked if I was jealous. Given I am a woman, how could I not feel jealous? Moreover, I am his wife - albeit just a contractual wife!
Perhaps it is even worse, in his heart, I am not even a woman."
"Humph, he's a bad guy, a bad guy! He doesn't even know how to comfort me - he just left!" Quin Lin held the huge Doraemon doll in her arms and slapped it hard, as if to vent her dissatisfaction.
Just as Quin Lin was pounding the doll, there was a knock on the door.
Quin Lin's face suddenly darkened. She coughed and said, "Who is it? Housekeeper?"
"Dear, it's me." Fade Chen's voice came from outside the door.
"What are you doing here?" Quin Lin was a little surprised.
"Honey, you'll know when you open the door, Fade Chen said.
Quin Lin hesitated for a moment and looked into the mirror. After making sure that there her expression was well composed, she got up and opened the door.
