Chapter 747 - A Call From Elder Ma
“Haha!”
When they came to their senses, the Mu family members laughed out loud.
“I’ve never known you to be a joker, Xintong!”
Mu Lianhai laughed, though he was quite suspicious.
His daughter had always been a reserved person. Why was she telling jokes today? It was quite curious.
When the other families heard that, they could not help but laugh too.
‘He’s not a senior, and he’s the same age as her?
‘Does that mean that he’s twenty years old?
‘How could that be possible!
‘A twenty-year-old Perfected Person? That is ridiculous!
‘The senior does indeed look like he’s twenty years old, but his true age must be very old. How could he become a Perfected Person before a hundred?
‘That Mu girl looks intelligent, but why would she be so muddled in this matter? Was she tricked?’
Mu Xintong’s brows furrowed even more tightly.
“What I said is true. It doesn’t matter if you believe it or not!” She said coldly.
Seeing that, the Mu family members began to hesitate.
Xintong did not look like she was lying. Moreover, Xintong was in the Agency, which meant that she knew more about the senior than they did.
However, that was too hard to believe!
If Senior Tang were actually a twenty-year-old Perfected Person, he was a monster! They were not in ancient times anymore. How did he do it?
They were quite shaken by the fact, and they could not accept it.
After hesitating for a long time, Old Master Mu walked over and carefully asked, “Senior, may I ask your age?”
The other elders laughed.
“Don’t tell me that you believe it, Ol’ Mu? You’ve gotten senile!”
Tang Hao coughed lightly and said somewhat embarrassedly, “I happen to be twenty years old this year!”
“Haha! Did you hear that, Ol’ Mu? Senior Tang said that he’s twen…” Old Master Hua burst out laughing reflexively. He was stunned when his brain caught up to his mouth.
In the next moment, his eyes widened, revealing an incredulous expression.
He turned his head and glared at Tang Hao until his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.
The other people also had the same expression. They suddenly became so quiet it was almost terrifying.
“Senior… what… did… you… just… say?” Old Master Hua said in a trembling voice.
“I’m twenty years old! Don’t doubt it. You heard it correctly!” Tang Hao said.
Old Master Hua’s body trembled as if he had been struck by lightning.
After standing there for a long time, his body swayed, and he almost fell down. His face changed several colors, and he was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
‘F*ck! He’s really twenty years old!
‘Is he even human?’
Looking at him, then looking at himself, he felt that he had nothing left to live for.
The other elders also had dispirited expressions on their faces. That was such a huge blow to their confidence!
The middle-aged people and even the youths were completely stunned on the spot. When they regained their senses, many of them had tears in their eyes.
‘F*ck! How could there be such a monster? Is there any point in living?’
After a while, they became excited.
If the president was a Perfected Person at twenty years old, what would he become at forty or sixty? That made him someone worth sucking up to!
They had to gain his favor as much as they could!
They looked at Tang Hao with sparkling eyes.
“Haha! I knew it. When I first saw you, President, I knew you weren’t an ordinary person. You have a unique temperament. Indeed, you’re as amazing as I expected!”
“President, you’re really a genius! My admiration for you is endless.”
They surrounded Tang Hao and began to flatter him.
The Mu family members were also very enthusiastic.
“My daughter! Don’t squander this chance!” Mu Lianhai walked to Mu Xintong’s side and said softly.
“Father! There’s really nothing between us!” Mu Xintong said.
“Really?”
“Of course! He has a girlfriend!”
Mu Lianhai was immediately disappointed.
“What a pity! You should’ve worked harder, my daughter!”
When Mu Xintong heard that, she almost rolled her eyes.
When the people from other families pricked up their ears and heard that, they were all delighted.
They were unwilling to see the Mu family get closer to the president. If the president married that girl, the Mu family would be able to lord over them.
“Look, President, it’s almost lunchtime. Let’s have lunch together!”
“Yes, yes, yes! Let’s eat!”
The people shouted.
Tang Hao had no choice but to follow them to lunch. There were nearly a hundred people from the five families, and it was a very lively scene.
After lunch, Mu Xintong drove him to the airport.
On the way, the two did not say much.
“This is my number. You can call me the next time you want to visit me.”
When the car stopped at the entrance to the airport terminal, she handed him a piece of paper.
“Oh!” Tang Hao responded.
Just as he was about to get out of the car, he seemed to remember something and handed her a small bag.
“This is for you!”
“What is it?” She furrowed her brows.
“It’s a present. I need to give you a present if I’m here to visit you!”
She was surprised, though she looked at Tang Hao and took the bag. As soon as she opened it, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up and sparkled.
There were a lot of jade talismans and alchemical pills in the bag.
“These pills are…”
“To increase your cultivation,” Tang Hao said.
She was stunned and was about to hand it back. “This is too expensive!”
“It’s fine! I have a lot of them!” Tang Hao said.
“Really?” She was a little hesitant.
“Of course!”
“Then… I’ll take them. Thank you!” She clutched the bag, and her eyes shone.
‘What a money-grubber!’ Tang Hao laughed in his heart.
She was usually as cold as ice, but when she saw something valuable like jade talismans, her eyes would light up.
“I’ll be leaving then!”
Tang Hao got out of the car, waved at her, and walked into the terminal.
In the car, Mu Xintong looked at his receding figure in a daze.
Suddenly, she frowned slightly, feeling disappointed.
After staring blankly for a long time, she started the car and left.
It was almost two o’clock in the morning when he arrived at Westridge.
As usual, Qin Xiangyi was waiting for him in the living room. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she lifted her head groggily.
“You’re back, Lil Tang!”
She reached out, hugged him, buried her face in his chest, and rubbed against him lazily.
“Let’s go to sleep!”
Tang Hao hugged her tightly and said softly.
“I don’t wanna!” She opened her eyes and said coyly.
“What should we do then?”
“Silly! I can’t sleep if you don’t feed me!” She whispered into Tang Hao’s ear and giggled.
Tang Hao could not help but laugh. He picked her up and walked into the bedroom.
After a night of intimacy and a few hours of sleep, the two of them got up from bed.
After sending her to her factory, Tang Hao went to his own office. He received a phone call at about ten o’clock. It was from Elder Ma, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Tang Hao was surprised, but he answered the call anyway.
“Long time no see, Elder Ma!” He said with a smile.
