Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 1196: Selling Tang Xiu for Two Pieces of Clothes
Tang Xiu outlined all his plans again in the next half hour and finally perfected a certain plan with the help of Long Hanwen.
“Do you want breakfast here, Uncle Long?”
Tang Xiu asked with a guilty expression after they finished discussing the serious matter.
“No.” Long Hanwen shook his head. “I'll be back to prepare in advance since we finish the plan. The Mayor and some people from Harbo Group came to my residence when I was on my way to your house, so I will deal with them first and wait for your arrival there. ”
“Good!” Tang Xiu felt relieved and took the man out of the house with a smile on his face.
When she returns to the living room on the first floor, she sees that Andy has come out of the kitchen still in an apron. But looking at her soft and cute face now has some “black screen” make-up “from the bottom of the pot, she can't help but laugh. He looked very depressed at the moment.
“Hehe, unlike people who can cook, indeed.”
Tang Xiu chuckled inwardly, but he remained silent and calm on the surface. “How good it is for you to prepare breakfast proactively, Andy. Did you just finish cooking? I'm starving.”
Andy glanced at Kang Xia and then stuttered. “B-Bos, a-what did you mean when you promised it?”
“I may not be an emperor, but I always mean what I say.” Tang Xiu nodded.
After hearing this, Andy immediately continued, “Kang Xia said that I should be able to handle the main tasks and kitchen work if I want to become your woman. He also said that you would agree to let me be your woman if I could cook. So what I'm asking is, do you really mean what you're saying? ”
Tang Xiu turned to look at Kang Xia and saw him nod at her with a smile. Then, he slowly replied, “I've tasted many delicious foods and their types and I can no longer eat ordinary food. Well, I just lost my appetite because you can't cook. ”
“What do you know I can't cook?” Andy acted angrily and shouted, “You haven't tasted it yet!”
Tang Xiu stared blankly for a moment and then carefully observed his expression for a while. After seeing the unease and fear in his erratic moving eyes, he said, “I'll consider it if the food you make tastes amazing. If it's mediocre, you'd better listen to Kang Xia's arrangement for a blind date and find yourself a girlfriend quickly. ”
“I don't think Andy will just give up if you don't give a definite statement, Boss.” Kang Xia interrupted. “In addition, you don't want to get entangled all the time in the future, right?”
Tang Xiu thought about it and felt that Kang Xia was right. However, he was still not convinced and then released his spiritual sense to inspect the dining room. There, he found four dishes had been served on the dining table. But “view” keeps him entertained in the heart because the appearance of this dish is really terrible, especially dishes like fish. The dish was clearly ripe considering how dark the fish skin was.
“I agree to accept you if the dish you just made tastes good, Andy. But if they feel bad and not my standard, you don't need to mention them in the future because we're not destined, okay? ” Tang Xiu said seriously.
“About that .. fine. Agree!”
Andy turned around with a pitiful expression on his face. But her expression turned into a smiling face like a blossoming flower when Tang Xiu could not see it clearly. Even his footsteps looked very strong. After coming to the dining room with Tang Xiu and Kang Xia, he poured hotpot soup from the casserole and gave a bowl of rice to Tang Xiu and Kang Xia respectively. After sitting across from them, he said, “Eat and tell me what it's like.”
Kang Xia picked up the chopsticks with a beaming face and chuckled as he clamped down on the chopped vegetable dish. “Yeah, I will act as a witness here, so my comment about it feels sure to be genuine and fair.”
After saying that, he pinched a piece of spicy and sour grated potato. A moment after, an arch curved in the corner of his mouth when he looked at Tang Xiu and said, “Yes, this grated potato .. it tastes quite good.”
Tang Xiu rolled his eyes at her in response and used his chopsticks to clamp those spicy and sour grated potatoes. But a moment later, his expression instantly froze after chewing on it.
‘Rasa ... it feels good.’
Despite having tasted many kinds of delicious food, he had to admit that this spicy and sour grated potato did indeed have an amazing taste.
After swallowing the potato dish, he maintained a calm face and went to pick up another dish.
“How is it? How's it feel? ” asked Andy in a hurry.
“I just tasted one bite, so I hold the comment for now, okay?” tang Xiu said. “I'll give you a full evaluation after I finish tasting everything.”
Andy and Kang Xia reacted in the same way and immediately put on a smiling face.
Soon, Tang Xiu tasted sour and sour pork ribs, steamed egg flower fish, and sour and sour goldfish. But after he finished tasting the three dishes, a look of regret was clearly visible on his face.
I just got smashed into a hole, yeah …
That was what he groaned in his heart and the most helpless groan he ever had. At this moment, he really did not understand why Kang Xia had put forth such a foolish and monstrous idea to make him fall into this trap.
Each of these four dishes can be said to deserve a place as the best main course if served in large, star-rated restaurants. Despite having tasted a wide variety of delicious dishes on his own, he still has to admit that Andy's cooking level is really on the roof.
Tang Xiu's mouth twitched twice and was at a loss as to how to respond for a while.
Andy himself looked hopeful. He looked at Tang Xiu and asked, “You haven't given your evaluation yet, Boss!”
Tang Xiu took a deep breath and reluctantly asked, “Andy, have you really never cooked before?”
While wearing a plain face, Andy stared back at him with big watery and intelligent eyes. “I've cooked before! I also hold a special chef license and I have studied many Chinese cooking recipes and made many delicious dishes based on it. Ah, right too. I've been a 3-star chef in Michelin before. ”
“ME...”
Tang Xiu's mouth opened as he was greatly distressed by the devastating blow brought by Andy's speech.
“KANG XIA !!”
His breathing turned violent as he shouted furiously. “Are you intentionally bullying me or what? What happened to your head? Is it really fun to dig a trap for me to jump over? ”
Kang Xia deliberately put on a face that seemed to have just been persecuted. “You can't blame me for this one, Boss! Andy knew Avril, the world-class designer, and she was his best friend. He promised me two new Avril designs, you know. ”
“Sial ..”
Tang Xiu was completely flabbergasted. Even in her wildest dreams she thought that she would be sold for only two pieces of clothing.

Imperial Dragon Villa is a newly developed villa complex in Star City's New Metro. Among these villas was the most magnificent King villa that the Long Group had for Long Hanwen, who had now moved there after a quick renovation project. The villa complex itself is now considered to have taken the position of South Gate Town as the best and most luxurious villa complex in Star City.
In villa #1.
Long Hanwen's sedan stopped in front of the courtyard when he saw Li Yuetao, the Deputy Mayor, sitting under the gazebo. Accompanying him were the newly appointed head of the Public Security Bureau, Jiang Fei, and Representative Chief William of the U. S. Harbo Group for China. All around them were also four burly men in black suits, looking wary in their security duties.
“Vice Mayor Li, Chief Jiang.”
Long Hanwen greeted them after coming.
Li Yuetao and Jiang Fei rose up, including William.
“I hope Chief Long can forgive and understand our visit early in the morning. I know you are a busy businessman, but the pressure is increasing from us, so we are also tied here, ” Li Yuetao said with a smile.
“Vice Mayor Li, I already know the purpose of your visit and what you want to say,” Long Hanwen replied with a cold face. “Let's talk about this issue again. Besides, the three of you also know how busy I am. Please forgive me for not having much time to comfort you. ”
After which, he turned around and headed inside the villa.
Li Yuetao forced a bitter smile and exchanged glances with Jiang Fei before he chased after him. As he walked side by side with Long Hanwen, he spoke with a forced smile, “Head Long, I will be honest with you. Harbo Group is guilty of this. I'd be as angry as you if I were in your shoes too. But the milk has spilled and you have locked Solund in for a day; isn't that enough for your anger to dissipate? Also, William visited in private in good faith to discuss the solution with you as well. ”
“Negotiate for the solution, yes?” Long Hanwen snorted furiously. “What big joke are you playing? My son is still lying in the ICU of China Star City Medical Hospital with an unknown life and death so far! Do you think I can easily let go of this problem? My door is open for negotiation if my son can recover, but I will make that bastard Cal Solund pay with his life if anything bad happens to my son's condition! ”
“Head Long, Harbo Group is one of the world's top 50 corporations that have invested tens of billions of yuan in the south of the country. Solund's father is a major shareholder of the Harbo Group and the consequences will be very serious for China as a country if the issue is left unsolved. It is likely that it will also greatly impact the next investment that this company will make in the country. Please give me and our country some face and drop this problem. You can rest assured that the Harbo Group will definitely provide a huge compensation. ”
Long Hanwen was silent for a while and then said, “Vice Mayor Li, please come back! I'll consider the matter first, but let me tell you something. There's no way if you want me to let go of that bastard now! ”
“You..”.
Li Yuetao was an outstanding figure of the government, so how could he not conclude that Long Hanwen did not want to give him face? However, he was not angry because he understood Long Hanwen's feelings and situation. A man wounds the son he most cherishes and cherishes, and the life and death of his son is still balanced. How could Long Hanwen ignore this matter given his identity?
It'll be quite troublesome!
LI Yuetao smiled bitterly inwardly and finally could only answer helplessly, “Then, I will wait for the good news from Chief Long, then.”
When Li Yuetao returned to the gazebo, he looked at the two pairs of eyes that were focused on him. Then, he reluctantly forced a smile and said, “William, it seems like the problem is not easy to solve. After all, President Long's son was still lying in the hospital and it was likely that he could die at any moment. In other words, you may have the status of a foreign investor here, but it is your side that does the deed. Even if President Long does not act to detain Cal Solund, I fear that the people of the City Public Security Bureau will arrest him. Let's step back and do it slowly. President Long is a bit angry at the moment, but I'm sure when his son's injury subsides, maybe his anger will go away. We may be able to resolve this issue smoothly when we come to negotiate again. ”
