Mr. Wu blushed and was about to wave his hand.
Fade 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 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 to me."
"Thank you so much." Mr. Wu's attitude became more enthusiastic.
Later, Mr. Wu was happily chatting with Fade, telling him all sorts of stories about his family, almost as if Fade was part of his family too.
Mindy 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, she continued to follow Fade around. She was pestering Fade unendingly, and kept calling him 'Brother Superman' while playing happily.
A thought unconsciously entered Mr. Wu's mind. He looked at Fade and asked, " Chen, you are not married yet, are you?"
"Eh?" Fade was a little surprised. He didn't expect Mr. Wu to suddenly ask this question.
Mr. Wu pointed to Mindy beside him and said, "What do you think of Mindy, Chen?"
"Ah!" This time, Fade was even more surprised and completely confused.
Mr. Wu pulled Mindy over and hurriedly said, "Chen, I know that Mindy 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 on 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 was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Mr. Wu would suddenly matchmake him with his daughter this way.
Mindy was also surprised, but the blush on her charming face made her even more attractive.
Even the little girl Fish clapped her hands and said, "Brother Superman, if you live with my mother, we can play together in the future." All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
"What do you think, Chen?" Mr. Wu asked expectantly.
"This..." Fade didn't know how to explain. He couldn't help but look at Quin, who was next to him. However, Quin looked indifferent as if she didn't care about how Fade would choose.
Mr. Wu thought that Fade 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 grew troubled. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wu, no, I can't..."
"Chen, you don't like Mindy?" Mr. Wu asked.
Fade 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 felt that his tongue was knotted. He quickly smoothed his tongue and talked hastily, "Mr. Wu, I 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 looked at Quin beside him and said, "We got married not long ago. She is my wife."
"What!" At this point, Mr. Wu and Mindy were both shocked and looked at them in surprise. "Quin is your wife?"
Previously, when Fade and Quin announced their relationship in front of Howard, Mindy, and Mr. Wu were 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 was Quin'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 married somebody else in front of his wife.
"Quin, I was confused just now. I'm sorry." Mr. Wu apologized.
"Ms. Lin, my dad was joking. Please don't mind," Mindy said in a hurry.
Quin 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 any longer. He exchanged contact information with Fade, then he let Quin and Fade leave.
Quin got on to the car and returned home. She kept a straight face and said nothing along the way.
Fade felt uneasy. He squeezed out a smile and said to Quin, "Dear, why are you unhappy? Are you still angry with what happened just now?"
"I'm not angry!" Quin rolled her eyes at Fade and turned around to enter the house.
Fade 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 said bluntly and walked upstairs.
Fade looked at his wife's cold face and sighed softly. Instead of following her, he turned around and walked away.
Quin 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."
"I think if I hadn't been there, he would have agreed instantly. After all, that was Mindy. 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 - 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 held the huge Doraemon doll in her arms and slapped it hard as if to vent her dissatisfaction.
Just as Quin was pounding the doll, there was a knock on the door.
Quin's face suddenly darkened. She coughed and said, "Who is it? Housekeeper?"
"Dear, it's me." Fade's voice came from outside the door.
"What are you doing here?" Quin was a little surprised.
"Honey, you'll know when you open the door," Fade said.
Quin 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.
