Jiang Tao had originally planned to visit Bai Yulan this morning.
But before he went, Bai Yulan called him first.
"Hey, Sister Bai."
Jiang Tao didnāt avoid Xu Li and Xu Sha, he directly answered the call in front of them.
He and Bai Yulan were clean as a whistle, there was nothing unspeakable.
"Thanks, Jiang Tao, last night was so comfortable, I havenāt slept so well in a long time."
Hearing Bai Yulanās voice on the other end of the phone, Xu Li and Xu Shaās eyes simultaneously turned to Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao, who was just smiling happily, suddenly broke into a sweat under his wifeās scrutinizing gaze.
It wasnāt really surprising that Xu Li reacted so strongly.
After all, Bai Yulanās words just now were quite misleading!
"Ahem! Sister Bai, my massage skills were taught by a very honorable old traditional medicine doctor, the effects are naturally very good!"
Jiang Tao hurriedly explained what Bai Yulan meant by "comfortable," fully motivated by his survival instincts.
After hearing Jiang Taoās explanation, Xu Li realized she had misunderstood her husband, and her gaze softened.
Seeing this, Jiang Tao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Sha also wore a look of relief on her face.
Such a good brother-in-law, Xu Sha wouldnāt agree to let another woman steal him away!
"By the way, Sister Bai, thereās something very important I want to discuss with you this morning. Are you free today?"
Jiang Tao, fearing another misunderstanding from further chit-chat, quickly changed the topic to business with Bai Yulan.
"Iām free, you can come anytime, Iāll be in the office awaiting your prestigious arrival this morning."
"Haha, Sister Bai, donāt tease me, Iām not that grand, Iām just a small fry."
"Hehe, from today on, you are a VIP at my place, Iāll make sure to give you a grand reception."
"I really didnāt expect you to be so talented, running so well and being so good at massages."
"I kind of feel like itās a pity we didnāt meet sooner."
"Haha, itās not too late now, letās talk when we meet later, Iāll hang up for now."
Jiang Tao truly was afraid Bai Yulan would say something else easily misunderstood.
After confirming their morning meeting, he promptly hung up the phone and followed Xu Li back home.
Xu Li didnāt ask much about the massage issue.
While in Beijing, Jiang Tao had given Du Enan a few massages too.
She also experienced it herself last night, and it was indeed fantastic.
However...
Although she trusts Jiang Tao 100%.
Thinking of her husband massaging other women still made her a bit jealous.
"Sister Bai seems to hold quite a bit of power in Ping County, her husband being close to her probably benefits business and earning money."
"Seeing how hard my husband works for this family, if I donāt trust him, that would really hurt him."
Xu Li quickly convinced herself, and her gaze toward Jiang Tao grew even softer.
Yesterday at the county guesthouse, Xu Sha saw how the county leaders were all respectful to Bai Yulan.
If even the county leaders give Sister Bai face, let alone her own husband.
Thinking this way, Xu Li became more understanding of Jiang Tao and Bai Yulanās relationship.
"Lili, I have some business to discuss with Sister Bai this morning, so I canāt go out with you guys."
Jiang Tao looked at Xu Li, his tone slightly apologetic.
"Itās alright, youāve got work to do, your matters are most important."
Xu Li smiled understandingly, she has always been very supportive of Jiang Taoās work.
She knows that their comfortable life now is all thanks to her husbandās hard work.
"Go for it, hubby~"
Xu Li bent down, leaned close to Jiang Tao, and gave him a light kiss on the lips, encouraging him with a smile.
"Uh."
Jiang Tao was amused and exasperated by Xu Liās reaction, what had this silly girl been influenced by now?
"..."
Watching her sister and brother-in-law show their affection made Xu Sha, with a lollipop in her mouth, feel less sweet than before.
Compared to this sweet love, the lollipop in her mouth suddenly seemed less sweet.
"Enjoy your day, the expenses today are on me, just swipe away."
Jiang Tao said with a smile as he pulled out a cardholder from his pocket, took out an ICBC credit card, and handed it to Xu Li.
This credit card was initially obtained for a free suitcase, with a limit of only about 20,000 originally.
Recently, as his spending increased, the savings in his ICBC account had surpassed ten million.
The bank took the initiative to contact him and increased the limit of this credit card to 500,000.
"Hehe, thanks hubby~"
Xu Li took the credit card from Jiang Tao with a smile, stood on her toes, and gave him another kiss on the lips.
"Iām off."
Jiang Tao hugged Xu Li around the waist and gave her a quick kiss before heading out and took the elevator downstairs.
"Yo! Is that Old Xuās son-in-law? Heading out, are you?"
"Yes, good morning, Auntie."
"Good morning, good morning, such a handsome young man, Xu Familyās daughter is so lucky!"
"Yes, indeed! If our daughter finds someone like him, weād be over the moon."
"What a capable young man, didnāt notice before."
"Hehe, you ladies over-praise me."
As he went downstairs, several older ladies in the elevator greeted Jiang Tao warmly and eagerly.
He had been coming to his father-in-lawās place many times over the seven or eight years of marriage to Xu Li.
Previously, everyone had been indifferent to him.
Now, each person he met greeted him with enthusiasm.
