Chapter 383 Yuehua's Maintenance, Tang San: Bragging About My Unseen Uncle Is All it Takes!_1

Tang Yuehua looked at Tang Hao and his son with a curious expression on their surprised faces.

"What's wrong?"

"Is there a problem?"

"This…" Tang San opened his mouth, but he couldn't find the words for a long time.

Hadn't his father told him before they came that this aunt, a stranger to him, had no interest in men and could not possibly like men? Where did this uncle come from?

The astonishment on Tang Hao's face was hard to dismiss as he exclaimed in amazement, "Yuehua, I've never seen you take an interest in any man. Who is this man?"

"What do you mean, 'Who is this man'?" Tang Yuehua's beautiful eyes glared.

She did not like what Tang Hao insinuated.

"Your son is already here. Is it so strange that I found a husband?" Tang Yuehua asked.

Seeing that Tang Yuehua's attitude was not very affectionate, Tang Hao felt extremely puzzled.

His sister in his memory was not like this at all.

Even if he hadn't contacted her for so many years, she should still be very close to him, shouldn't she?

Where had things gone wrong?

Doubts flickered in Tang Hao's eyes, but he laughed heartily on the surface,

"I was worried that you had been living poorly all these years, but now that you've found your Ideal Gentleman to take care of you, I as your brother am relieved."

"Yes, my husband has really been good to me," Yuehua said.

As she mentioned Luo Yu, Tang Yuehua revealed a charming, noblewoman's smile, her skin smooth as jade seemingly emitting a soft glow, looking especially beautiful.

Although Tang Hao was a rough man, he was perceptive in his own way.

Now that he was preparing to rely on others, he naturally understood the importance of observing others' expressions.

He had already sensed that his sister seemed to have a particularly good impression of this unseen brother-in-law, and immediately followed with praise.

"The man my sister likes must be a hero of his time, a rarity in this world."

"Of course," Tang Yuehua replied with her red lips slightly pursed, a sweet smile spilling from the corners of her mouth, appearing quite happy, "Since meeting him, Yuehua's life has become so much brighter."

Tang Hao laughed heartily, while his hand behind him pinched Tang San's buttocks.

Tang San's back stiffened in an instant, understanding his father's meaning, and displayed a modest smile appropriate for a younger family member.

"Aunt Yuehua, hearing you speak like this, I know that my uncle must be a Dragon among men, a paragon of virtue; I can't help but admire him," he said.

No woman dislikes hearing her lover praised; Tang Yuehua's smile grew even brighter. Her hand gently caressed Tang San's head, her touch becoming warmer.

"Xiaosan, is it? You are indeed a good child, such a sweet talker."

"Your uncle would probably like you too when he sees you."

"Come on, don't stand outside. Please, come in," she said.

Leading the way, Tang Yuehua walked ahead, with Tang Hao and his son following behind, exchanging glances and smiling knowingly, their smiles filled with proud satisfaction.

Tang San had found the secret to pleasing Tang Yuehua: just heap praise on this unseen uncle and all would be well. From now on, I'd be an uncle-flatterer!

Tang Yuehua directed the father and son to take seats in the hall.

"Xiaosan, you and your dad sit down and rest for a while. You must be tired from your journey. I'll go prepare some tea and snacks," she said.

Tang San interjected, "Aunt, please wait a moment."

"Hmm?" Yuehua looked puzzled.

Respectfully, Tang San said, "May I ask where my uncle is so I may pay my respects?"

Seeing how polite Tang San was, Tang Yuehua laughed and teased, "Xiaosan, what's the hurry? You really want to meet your uncle so soon?"

Scratching his head and smiling naively, Tang San said, "As the younger generation, it's my duty to show proper respect when visiting my elders."

"Exactly," Yuehua nodded repeatedly, turning to praise Tang Hao, "Big brother, your son is really something, much sweeter than you."

"Haha," Tang Hao laughed out loud, unable to hide the pride on his face.

Tang Yuehua said, "Xiaosan, visit your uncle later. He's overworked today and resting upstairs. Let's not disturb him."

"Overworked?" Tang San scratched his head.

A unnatural blush flashed across Tang Yuehua's face, and she gently slapped the back of Tang San's head with her hand.

"Kids shouldn't ask so many questions. Just wait here obediently, aunt will go get some tea and snacks for you."

"Tat-tat."

Tang Yuehua walked toward the kitchen in her black high heels.

No sooner had she left than Tang Hao gave Tang San a thumbs-up and lowered his voice, "Son, you really have a way with words. You made your aunt happy in just a few sentences."

"Your aunt was quite resentful about my disappearance for over a decade, but you managed to win her over with just a couple of words."

Tang San sat in the chair in a grand manner, his lips curving upwards.

"Dad, isn't that simple?"

"It's obvious that your aunt has eyes only for that uncle."

"We just need to treat her with the right remedy, keep praising your uncle, and that's it."

"Yes, I've noticed that too," Tang Hao nodded. "I wonder what kind of talent has mesmerized your aunt to this extent."

"But all that doesn't matter. Once your uncle comes out, both of us must say only nice things. We still need your aunt's influence to help us find your mother."

"I understand," Tang San smiled. "When my uncle comes out, just watch how I flatter him. I can puff him up so much he won't know which way is north, haha."

Tang Hao said with satisfaction, "My son is outstanding, even better than your father."

"Capable of being both hard and soft, combining strength and gentleness. You have embarked on the true path to invincibility."

Tang San clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Dad, right now, I really don't want to think about anything else. I just wish Luo Yu would appear in front of me this instant, so I could smash him with one hammer."

"Are you crazy, Xiaosan?" Tang Hao shook his head and chuckled. "This is your aunt's territory, the most high-end place in the Tiandou Empire. That kind of guy doesn't have the credentials to be here."

"That's true," Tang San smiled. "Not to mention my own strength far exceeds his now, and I have my high-ranking aunt to back me. Does he?"

Recalling, Tang Hao said, "Eh, Xiaosan, did you notice earlier that your aunt's pair of silk stockings seemed a bit excessively laddered?"

"I noticed too," Tang San nodded. "And besides the scent of perfume, there's a faint fishy smell on her."

"This..."

Tang Hao, putting together Yuehua's tardiness and the evasive manner she mentioned 'uncle,' couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Your aunt didn't answer our knocking earlier. Could she and your uncle have been..."

Tang San was first stunned, then caught on.

"No way, they started during the day? It wasn't even dark yet."

Tang Hao glared.

"You little rascal, you're focusing on the wrong thing. Your aunt hasn't even married yet, and she's already given herself to someone else."

"Who is that lucky guy who's slept with my sister?" Tang Hao grit his teeth.

Tang Yuehua didn't return from the kitchen, but there was movement from upstairs first.

"Click-clack, click-clack!"

Tang Hao hesitated, "Is that your uncle coming down from upstairs?"

"Definitely, I'll go greet my uncle."

Tang San was very adept at handling things.

He deliberately arranged a warm smile on his face and hurried to the staircase to wait.

The wheelchair rolled down.

Luo Yu, disguised with an ordinary face from Tang San's memory, came down.

When Tang San and Tang Hao saw Luo Yu's face.

The smiles on their faces instantly stiffened, as if struck by lightning.
