Beautiful Ex-wife's Contract Son-in-law

It was located at the riverside of the city protection river. The trees here were lush, and the scenery of the lake and mountains merged into one. There were fake mountains, pavilions, fountains, and lawns. They formed a beautiful scenery.    

It was an area that couldn't be replicated, and it was incomparably bustling. It was a rare environment, and it was a unique and unique scenery. It was truly a breathtaking sight.    

The buildings were designed in the style of the entire building, and they originated from the European royal family's architectural style. Those who could live here were all important people from the Rongcheng City, and they were all extremely wealthy merchants.    

A silver-haired man with silver hair. The old man closed his eyes and sat on a deck chair by the swimming pool in Villa Number 3. He leisurely enjoyed the afternoon sunlight.    

A middle-aged man crept up to him. Although his footsteps were very small, the old man with sharp ears heard them.    

"Butler Zhou, how is the matter that I asked you to investigate going?" The old man asked with his eyes closed.    

"Master, the young lady has been found!" The butler said.    

"Ah? Found it?" Upon hearing the news of his granddaughter, the old man immediately opened his eyes and sat up from the reclining chair. He asked, "Where is my good granddaughter?"    

"She's injured. She's in the hospital!" the butler replied.    

"Ah? She's injured? Is it serious?" The old man asked urgently.    

"It's not serious. She only suffered some minor injuries. The nurses in the hospital have already bandaged her!" The butler replied.    

The old man was relieved when he heard that his granddaughter was fine. He asked the butler:    

"How did she get hurt?"    

"I heard she was stabbed!" The butler replied.    

"Who stabbed her?" The old man angrily asked.    

"Not sure yet!" The butler shook his head.    

The old man used a commanding tone and said, "Go and investigate for me. Even if you flip the Rongcheng City upside down, you have to find out who the murderer is. I want to skin him and pull out his tendons!"    

The old man had not gone overboard like this for many years. When he saw the two cold lights shooting out of the old man's eyes, the butler knew that someone was going to suffer. He said:    

"Okay, I will make the arrangements now!"    

After saying that, the butler bade farewell and left.    

"Sigh..." Looking at the butler's departing figure, the old man sighed with emotion.    

He knew in his heart that if not for his disappointing son finding a woman older than his granddaughter to be his wife, his granddaughter would not have run away from home.    

The old man had been very sad during the period when his granddaughter had gone missing. Now, he finally had news of his granddaughter. The stone in his heart had finally been lifted.    

...    

In ward number 8 on the 11th floor of Inpatient Department of the People's Hospital.    

After the fluid transfusion, Wu Xu lay quietly on the hospital bed. His eyes stared straight at the ceiling. The scene of the bald man and the crew cut sneaking into the ward and preparing to assassinate him repeatedly flashed through his mind.    

Last night, if Zhang Mengmeng did not hug the bald man from behind and sacrifice herself to save herself, she would have used her arm to block the knife for him. If Ma Zhong did not appear in the ward in time, he would have lost his life.    

Thinking of this, a sense of gratitude arose spontaneously.    

He looked around the ward and saw Ma Zhong standing beside his bed like a benchmark. Zhang Mengmeng, however, did not know where she had run off to. He asked Ma Zhong,    

"Ma, where is Zhang Mengmeng?"    

"She said she went downstairs to buy lunch for us!" Ma Zhong answered truthfully.    

Wu Xu remembered last night when his life was at stake, Ma Zhong suddenly rushed into the ward and fought with the bald man. He said gratefully,    

"Ma, if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid my life would have been over."    

"Boss, this is what I should do. Don't be polite." Ma Zhong replied.    

Wu Xu said, "Don't call me boss from now on. I sound a little awkward. Just call me Wu Xu."    

"How can that be?" Ma Zhong thought for a while and replied, "How about this? I will call you Mr Wu from now on. Don't call me Ma either. Just call me Ma Zhong."    

"No, I can't call you by your name." Wu Xu said in a hurry.    

"Why?" Ma Zhong asked, puzzled.    

"When my injuries are almost healed, I want to take you as my master and teach me martial arts. I want to learn some defensive skills so that I don't get bullied by others. What do you think?" Wu Xu looked at him with anticipation.    

"No problem." Ma Zhong patted his chest with his hand and said, "As long as Mr Wu is willing, I will teach you all the skills I have learned."    

"Thank you so much. I will call you master directly from now on, okay?" Wu Xu asked earnestly.    

"No." Ma Zhong shook his head and said, "You are my boss. If you call me master, others will laugh at you. I am older than you. Just call me Old Ma!"    

Wu Xu felt that what Ma Zhong said made sense. He said, "I will call you Mr Ma. This is more friendly!"    

Ma Zhong smiled brightly and said, "How about this? You call me Mr Ma privately, and you call me Ma in public. Do you think it's okay?"    

"Okay, it's a deal!" Wu Xu said with a smile.    

At this time, a gentle voice came from the living room outside. "What are you two talking about? Why is it so lively?"    

Both of them looked at the door of the room at the same time.    

Wu Xu saw Zhang Mengmeng holding a plastic bag with two boxes of rice in her hands and stood there gracefully. Her arms were still wrapped in gauze, so he loudly scolded her.    

"Mengmeng, your arm is injured. Why are you running around?"    

Zhang Mengmeng carried the plastic bag and walked to Wu Xu's sickbed. She smiled charmingly and said, "I didn't run around. I just went downstairs to buy food for the two of you."    

Wu Xu saw that she only had two boxes of food in her hands, so he asked, "Have you eaten?"    

"I have." Zhang Mengmeng nodded and said, "Just like two days ago, I finished eating at the restaurant and brought it back for you."    

"Thank you." Wu Xu looked at her arm and asked with concern, "How is the wound on your arm? Is it better?"    

"It's fine. The doctor said it will be better in a few days." Zhang Mengmeng said as she took out a lunchbox from the plastic bag. She handed it to Ma Zhong and said, "Ma, hurry up and eat. Otherwise, the food will be cold!"    

Ma Zhong took the lunchbox from Zhang Mengmeng and thanked her.    

"Thank you!"    

"You are welcome!" Zhang Mengmeng smiled and took out another box of food. She said to Wu Xu, "Xu, you are injured and it is inconvenient for you to move. Let me feed you!"    

"No... No need." Wu Xu tried to sit up from the bed and said, "You have injuries on your arm too. Let me do it myself."    

He took the box of food from Zhang Mengmeng and suddenly felt a sharp pain from the wound. He gritted his teeth and made a painful look.    

"Xu, don't take advantage of the situation. Let me feed you!" Zhang Mengmeng snatched the lunchbox from his hand and opened it. She picked up a spoon and put it into his mouth one spoon at a time.    

Ma Zhong wanted to feed Wu Xu on Zhang Mengmeng's behalf, but he saw that the injury on her arm was not serious. Furthermore, she acted quite intimately in front of Wu Xu, so he picked up the lunchbox and left Wu Xu's ward. He went to the living room outside to eat.    

Wu Xu remembered that he had never enjoyed this kind of treatment before after marrying Gu Xiaohui for so long. He felt so warm, and a warm feeling instantly filled his entire body.    

He chewed the food Zhang Mengmeng sent into his mouth with a spoon and thanked Gu Xiaohui, "Mengmeng, thank you so much!"
