Chapter 178: Diabolical CV Big Shot 27
Seeing Mother Tang's welcoming attitude, Yang Tong instantly knew his chances were exceptionally good. He immediately employed his sensual, attractive voice—the kind that could make anyone's ears melt—and said, "This is my first time paying a visit, so how could I possibly show up empty-handed? Please don't mind these modest gifts, Auntie, Uncle."
Accepting the gift boxes, Mother Tang remarked, "How could we? My dear, you're far too polite!"
With that, she turned to Tang Wan and urged, "Wanwan, what are you standing there for? Go pour some water for Little Tong!"
Tang Wan's mouth twitched slightly. Little Tong already?
Nevertheless, she shot a glance at Yang Tong—who was smiling with utter poise, elegance, and grace—and resignedly went to pour tea for him.
When she returned with the brewed tea, she saw Yang Tong seated across from Father Tang, comfortably engaging in a conversation about current economic trends.
Meanwhile, Father Tang's face was completely brimming with satisfaction.
He only had one precious daughter in Tang Wan, and he had never planned on using her in a political marriage to expand the Tang Corporation's domain anyway. So as long as she could find a decent husband—someone with whom she could co-manage the business in the future—his heart would be at ease.
As for Gu Yunshen, whom she used to chase after frantically...
That kid was certainly capable, but his ambition was far too vast. If Wanwan were to marry him... heh, the Tang Corporation would likely cease to exist before long.
Thankfully, Wanwan had turned back and come to her senses!
Looking at this Yang Tong, he found him exceptionally fitting!
Dapper, cultured, and gentle—a true gentleman in every sense of the word!
…
As noon approached, Mother Tang stood up, intending to head into the kitchen to whip up a few dishes herself.
Seeing this, Yang Tong efficiently rolled up his shirt sleeves and said to Mother Tang, "Auntie, let me handle it! Wanwan loves the dishes I cook the most."
The moment these words left his mouth, Mother Tang's eyes lit up instantly. Sallowing back her initial refusal, she said, "You know how to cook too? In this day and age, men who know how to prepare a meal are few and far between. Wanwan truly found herself a real blessing! Alright then, I'll stay out of your way."
"Mm, you can just sit back and relax. Wanwan hasn't seen you in over a month and missed you dearly! Go ahead and catch up with each other," Yang Tong said gently.
Her heart blooming with delight, Mother Tang returned to the living room.
Taking hold of Tang Wan's hand, she couldn't stop beaming as she asked, "Wanwan, how did the two of you meet? This kid, Little Tong, looks quite wonderful to me!"
Feeling the genuine warmth and concern from Mother Tang, Tang Wan felt a surge of warmth in her chest and smiled, replying, "He does voice acting too, and he's a top-tier figure in the industry. During this past period of time... he's been mentoring me."
Hearing this, Mother Tang grew increasingly pleased. "No wonder I found his voice so pleasant to listen to! Rest assured, our family isn't short on money; your father and I don't care what line of work he's in. As long as the two of you live well together in the future, that's all that matters!"
At the side, Father Tang nodded approvingly in agreement.
Evidently, both of them had been completely taken in by Yang Tong's gentle, humble, and polite persona.
On the surface, however, Tang Wan maintained her obedient demeanor and nodded, "I understand, Mom."
As a child, the first thing one should learn upon growing up is not to let one's parents worry unnecessarily. The original host had driven the Tang family to ruin, so she naturally intended to fulfill her filial duties proper and let the couple enjoy their golden years in peace.
…
Before long, dish after dish—vibrant, fragrant, and appetizing—was brought to the table by the nanny.
Exchanging a glance, Father Tang and Mother Tang smiled at each other in unspoken agreement.
Once seven or eight dishes were served, Mother Tang hurriedly spoke up, "Little Tong, this is more than enough food. There's no need to stir-fry anything else."
Yang Tong nodded with a smile and unfastened his apron.
After taking his seat at the dining table, he waited for Father Tang and Mother Tang to pick up their chopsticks before using his own to serve food into Tang Wan's bowl—acting with the utmost attentiveness!
Following that, he smoothly maneuvered the conversation while pouring wine for Father Tang, keeping both parents beaming with smiles throughout the meal.
Tang Wan: ...
Heh! What a scheming man!
Yet she had to admit to herself—she, too, would be willing to marry her daughter off to a man like this!
