13. I’m amorous?! 

‘Sir, it’s a bit cold in the cabin, would you like a blanket?’

Xiao Tu was in the window seat, and she closed her eyes trying to nap on the flight to N city. Through the flight, the beautiful flight attendants had been coming and going, paying special attention to Lang Lang.

“Sir, would you like a drink?”

“Sir, are you hungry, would you like anything to eat?”

“Sir?...Sir?...Sir?”

Endlessly trying to charm Lang Lang.

‘Yes, please. My wife is taking a nap and I am afraid she would be cold. Thank you.’ The perverted Wolf replied, glancing over at Xiao Tu with a loving look. There was a wail down from one end of the plane. Someone must be heartbroken and couldn’t control it.

Wife? Who? Xiao Tu continued to feign sleep when she suddenly felt a blanket placed on her body, and a strong arm hugged her slender shoulder, pulling her against his warm body.

She opened her eyes, to see it was indeed the warm chest of the evil wolf. Her face was tightly pasted against his chest, and she could smell his cologne. Ahem, how was she to sleep like this with such an attractive musk, ehn? But it wasn’t like she could fall asleep, if she did, she would end up drooling, snoring and perhaps, farting. Zhen Zhen had announced this when they were playing Truth or Dare in university.

Well, he had told the clingy attendant she was his wife to get rid of them. Since he was taking advantage of her, so she could only stay here.

Xiao Tu pretended to sleep for half an hour more, after she had taken advantage of other’s advantages, she decided to sit up.

She stretched as she feigned a yawn, ‘I fell asleep…’

Looking as though, she was surprised to find herself on his chest, ‘Director, I am so sorry I fell asleep on you.’

The evil Wolf looked at her coolly as he replied, ‘I didn’t expect that you would lean on me when you fell asleep. Although we are in first class, there really is no place to hide.’

What the-? This psycho! You were the one that pulled me into your arms, she protested. She couldn’t believe his audacity.

‘You-!’ If she said anything now, he would know she had been pretending to sleep. But if she said nothing, he would continue to malign her as a hungry and thirsty woman.

She clenched her fist and glared at him for a good few minutes before let it go.

‘Yes, it is my fault. I shouldn’t have leaned on you.’

‘It’s fine. I am now used to your enthusiasm for me at anytime or any place.’

Xiao Tu was speechless, and wanted to cry tears of frustration.

The plane landed, and he pulled her along with him out of the airport into a waiting car. She looked out of the window and saw the “Welcome to N City!” billboard as they drove out of the airport, but she couldn’t feel happy about her trip. With her dejected mood, she truly fell asleep.

When she woke up, she found herself in a big comfortable bed.

Xiao Tu wondered whether she had farted in her sleep in the car, but she hoped not.

Xiao Tu pulled the covers and rolled out of bed when she realised the windbreaker had been taken off.

The nothing of a dress on her was wrinkled and askew. Did that perverted Wolf take off the jacket?!

Xiao Tu jumped out of bed, ready to catch this pervert that was always evading her. She opened the door to the room and found Lang Lang watching TV. She marched up to him and pointed to his nose, ‘Now, how do you explain this then? Why did you take of the windbreaker? You just want to take advantage of me while I am asleep, don’t you? Don’t dare deny it, I won’t believe you! You behave like an untouched mountain flower, but in truth, your tasteless and immoral!’ (Zuben: If only you carry on with this momentum, and not deflate the moment he says something only half plausible)

After that tirade, she was suddenly tired.

Lang Lang slowly looked at her from head to feet and back up. The way he looked at her made her feel naked. She quickly covered her chest to block his eyes.

Xiao Tu was so frustrated, she wouldn’t cover up, her self esteem was more important. She bent over him and looked directly into his eyes,

‘What kind of eyes are you looking at me with?! Don’t dare look at me like that again! Believe me or not, I will beat you!’ she declared, waving her clenched fist in front of his face.

Lang Lang did know if he could laugh or cry; the little rabbit’s hair was on end.

He looked down again, and was stunned. Because she was bent over, her breasts were hanging down, nearly slipping out of her dress.

When Lang Lang didn’t respond, Xiao Tu followed his gaze and saw her disheveled state, she gasped and turned around, not realising that Lang Lang also liked to look at her back as well.

‘You are a pervert! Tell me what you want!’ Xiao Tu has had enough. It doesn’t matter if he was her boss, he was pervert! Her father had taught her that all sex offenders should be made an example of and shot. How could he make her wear this dress?!

Lang Lang calmed down and rose out of his seat, ‘Miss Xiao, I think you’re a little unwell. Perhaps, a mental illness of being amorous, seeing perversion everywhere. I just took off the jacket because I feared you wouldn’t sleep well with it on. And now you come to accuse me.’ He walked to another bag discarded on the sofa, and drew out a yellow dress, ‘As for the dress, it is the very latest in fashion; very noble and generous. It is almost time to go to the dance, if you are reluctant to wear it, you can change it to this one, so you don’t continue to think that I have impure motives.’ (Zuben: After eating your fill? Your motives aren’t impure?)

She was amorous?! She?! Xiao Tu believed herself to be the most rigorous person in her life due to the education from her police officer father. Everything must be based on evidence. How dare he claim that she was amorous for him! (Zuben: And you’re not? Or is it all handsome guys in general.)

She took the dress from him and studied it. It was way more conservative than the black one. Why hadn’t he given her this one earlier?! Where was that dress suitable for a dance? Hold on; dance? What dance?

‘What dance?’

‘At my family home.’ Lang Lang answered carelessly as he went back to sit in the sofa, picked up the remote and changed the channel.

‘Y-your family? You’re taking me to your family?’

‘Yes,’ he replied drily.

‘What? Why should I come all the way to meet your family with you?’

‘Do you really want to know?’

Xiao Tu gave him a glare.

‘Well, it’s the typical dog blood story; my mother is insisting I go out with the daughter of another company’s president we are working with. I don’t want to, so I told her I had a girlfriend. She doesn’t believe me, and as me to bring my girlfriend and so I am bringing you. It’s that simple.’

Simple? Simple, your big head! Why did you have to take me as your girlfriend? I have fart all of a relationship with you!

‘Director, if I remember correctly we don’t have any sort of relationship; when did I become your girlfriend?’

‘Of course, it is not true, we’re pretending.’

This mo-fo! Crossing the ocean and tricking me into coming here to do such a tasteless thing! With his high handed attitude and disliking her…she quit!

‘Director, have you ever considered that I would not agree to this?’

He laughed, ‘No, I never considered it.’

Xiao Tu felt anger surge like a volcano about to blow.

‘Then let me inform you directly: I don’t want to!’

She threw the dress on the sofa and turned to leave.

‘Is that so?’ he said drolly from his seat, ‘You remember what you did to me? Our company does not tolerate subordinates who try to seduce their superiors. I believe it should be the same in other companies.’ (Zuben: What about bosses who try to seduce their subordinates, then twist the story up and down?)

She stilled. This evil…! How could he be so cruel?!

Xiao Tu really wanted to say, “I don’t care!”, and continue on her way, but without job prospects. (Zuben: God, she’s so dumb! Call his bluff, moron!)

‘Fine!’ She said glumly, picking up the dress and headed to the room to change.

She didn’t see his triumphant smile.

🐺

Diabolical plans of the Wolf and His Mother:

‘Hi mom, what’s up?’

‘Lang baby, Li said you had a girlfriend, is that true?’

‘He’s really premature to report; we are just friends.’ (Zuben: Dude, you're barely friends!)

‘Why? Doesn’t she like you?’

‘No, she’s just stupid. I’m enjoying teasing her.’

‘Stupid son, you’re just as dumb as your father. If you don’t stake your claim, she will be taken sooner or later. Bring her home for mom to have a look. Just tell her I’m making you date the daughter of some president…’

14 Meet the in-laws

To say what she knows best; it was what Xiao Tu had learned from her policeman father and teacher mother. She had been told that people could me moved with emotion and talked down with reason, but she never expected that there were people in the world more difficult than prisoners and children.

‘Director Lang, why don’t you reconsider? There is still time to change to another lady.’ Xiao Tu said in the car on the way to the wolves’ home territory. She was dressed and her make up was done but she didn’t give up on trying to convince Lang Lang’s cold heart.

Lang Lang glanced at her and said in the most innocent and resigned manner, ‘Who would I change to? I told my mother your name already.’

Fuck this guy! Why couldn’t he find an ex-girlfriend to do this with him?!

‘Director, how about if we book a professional; we tell her to take on my name as an alias. There would be a lot of escorts who would be eager to play with someone of your status.’ And you can leave me alone.

Lang Lang sighed, ‘But I would have to spend money on an escort. And you owe me. I don’t do business at a loss.’

Damn you, man! You’re so rich, you won’t die after spending a little money, she cursed inwardly while her face twitched. Also, could he stop saying she took advantage of him?! So stingy! Only a few kisses and he wants to kill her.

‘Lang Lang, er Director Lang. why don’t I spend the money…er, as repayment for what I owe. Don’t you agree?’

Lang Lang turned to look at her directly. The look on his face made her hair stand on end, but she kept her brave, toadying smile on. He moved closer, and she leaned away. He kept leaning towards her, and she kept leaning back till she was up against the car door. Yet he was still coming closer, Xiao Tu was so frightened that she held her hands up against her chest and shut her eyes.

Too close. Too close. This is to ambiguous. Xiao Tu swallowed and said, ‘You, don’t mess around.’

‘Me messing around? But I think you enjoy me messing around very much. Your eyes are closed, are you expecting something?’

She peered at him through squinted eyes.

He backed away and sat back in his seat.

‘Miss Xiao, you have been calling my motives impure over and over again. I won’t care about your opinions anymore. I was going to forgive things, but you have no sincerity to repent and always want to avoid your guilt. In this case, I’ll…’ the threat hung in the air.

‘No need!’ Xiao Tu said grabbing his arm and kneading his forearm muscles in a placating gesture, ‘Thank you for giving me this opportunity to make up for my mistakes. Don’t worry, I will do well.’

Damn! Fuck! Shit! Shithead! God knows how much I want to beat you up!

Lang Lang seemed to read her mind. He smiled enjoying the soft touch of her hands kneading his arm. He put on a serious expression and told the driver,

‘Xiao Zhang, drive faster.’

When they arrived at the Lang mansion, Xiao Tu got out of the car with the world spinning around her head. A large hand held her waist to steady her.

‘Since we are acting, we have to do everything thoroughly. You should try your best to look as though you care deeply for me.’

Shit! If I could act, I would have done Drama in uni, she grumbled inwardly. If she had ever imagined she would fall into his claws, she would have gone to drama school!

Wow! What a mansion…

She was stunned. This guy’s family was really rich. What was going on that the place was festooned with lights, bunting and balloons?

‘Today is my grandfather’s ninetieth birthday.’

Uh, why didn’t he say so earlier? What should she do? Just looking at the house made her feel dizzy.

‘Director, whoever marries into your family would feel a lot of pressure. Your house is so big.’ She said staring up at the house they were walking up to in a daze.

He stroked her cheek as he replied, ‘Don’t worry, we won’t live here when we get married. Besides, my family is easy going, they won’t make you suffer.’

Huh? Was he method acting? Who was marrying him?

‘Third young master, you have returned!’ An older man, whom Xiao Tu could only assume was the family steward, opened the door, ‘Please come in, the old lady has been talking about you all evening.’

Third young master? Old lady? Oh my god, what a soap opera setup! Xiao Tu giggled to herself.

Seeing her laughing, Lang Lang pinched her- she quickly stood at attention.

‘Uncle Zhang, how are you? This is my girlfriend, Xiao Tu.’

Uncle Zhang gave his full attention to her, he looked at her from head to foot, then smiled kindly, ‘Very good. Come in, come in,’ he said going ahead to them into the house.

Once they entered the main foyer, Uncle Zhang called into the house, ‘Old Lady, Madam, come and see third young master’s girlfriend!’

Xiao Tu was dragged deeper into the house. When they entered the lounge, family members emerged from what looked like the dining area. She really felt like she was being dragged into a den of wolves.

They stood before both of them expectantly. The leader of the wolves seemed to be a kindly old lady. Peering at Xiao Yu, she nodded excitedly. Xiao Tu always believed one should always maintain basic politeness, so she bowed as she giggled which made the old man beside the old lady laugh.

Lang Lang put his hand on Xiao Tu waist as he made introductions, ‘Grandma, Aunt, Second Aunt, Fourth Aunt, Third Cousin, Second Cousin, Fourth Cousin, this is my girlfriend, Xiao Tu.’

Uh…why are there so many people?!

Xiao Tu felt her waist being pinched, and she hurriedly greeted everyone, ‘Grandma, aunts, cousins, good evening. My name is Xiao Tu.’

It was stilted like she was delivering a speech, don’t blame her for not remembering who was who!

‘Lang baby, well done!’ His grandma? Praised Lang Lang. She turned to Xiao Tu, ‘Girl, come inside with grandma,’

Lang baby? She began to giggle again, she wanted to laugh her head off, but she was pinched again. Xiao Tu looked at him to see him frowning at her. It was fine, she would laugh in her heart.

Xiao Tu smiled at him, and followed his Grandma.

At dinner, Xiao Tu was allowed to sit at the main table as the third young master’s girlfriend. And once again was under everyone’s scrutiny,

‘Old Man, that’s our Lang baby’s girlfriend, Tutu. See how well they match.’

When Lang Lang’s mother emerged, she said, ‘Bao’er, look this is your daughter-in-law.’

The old lady was tirelessly introducing her to everyone. Ah, Lang Lang how you never had a girlfriend in 800 years? Why are they so happy? Daughter in law?! Hopefully, they aren’t taking this all too seriously. Actually, she shouldn’t take it seriously either.

After greeting everyone one by one, Xiao Tu felt her face was aching from smiling. She was finally able to sit and eat. But despite all the delicious food on the table, Xiao Tu felt unable to dive in for the first time in her life. Everyone was staring at her, smiling. She couldn’t eat!

‘Eat quickly.’ Lang Lang said in her ear, ‘In the car I touched your belly, aren’t you hungry?’

She should be the only one hearing these ambiguous words, but everyone watching them carefully, and smiling happily.

Touched my stomach? Do I have anything to do with you? How could he make this shit up? She raged.

Xiao Tu picked up her chopsticks, and was about to take a bit of the fish, when a piece was put into her bowl. She looked up that Lang Lang, who was smiling at her softly, ‘Come on, eat some fish.’

Ugh! Can you stop…? I…I can’t afford it.

All the elders smiled happily.

‘Lang baby, give Tutu some chicken. Your mother cooked it.’ Grandma Lang said, ‘Eat more…’

Xiao Tu covered her mouth to burp. She was now pretty full.

Grandma, I can’t eat anymore.

Lang Lang, with this I should have paid all my debts, right? Xiao Tu stared at Lang Lang trying to send her thoughts. Who knew she was wrong?

He picked up his wine glass and pulled her up as rose, ‘Grandpa, Xiao Tu and I toast you on a happy birthday. Long life and good health.’

Ugh, drinking again…

Xiao Tu reluctantly picked up her glass, ‘Grandpa Lang, I wish you happiness as vast as the East Sea, longevity of the southern mountains.’ With that she drank.

Grandpa Lang laughed, ‘Good girl, thank you.’ And he sipped on his glass.

Lang Lang and his mother exchanged a glance. (Zuben: Like mother, like son)

Mother Lang said, ‘Dad, I am so satisfied with Tutu, have another drink with her.’

‘Sure sure, come on, let’s have another drink.’ Grandpa Lang eagerly held is glass up.

Ugh…and once again she downed another drink. Xiao Tu was already feeling dizzy. But her ordeal did not seem to be about to end. For Mother Lang said,

‘Husband, see how good our daughter-in-law is. Come on, have a toast with her.’

Ugh, another toast to Father Lang.

‘Come on, Tutu, I’ll have a drink with you too.’

Ugh, Mother Lang, why? Why do women bother women? (Zuben: Why indeed)

By the end of dinner, Xiao Tu didn’t know how much she had drunk. She fell into Lang Lang’s arms.
