Chapter 299 Nourishing Soup



After Captain Liao heard Tang Zelong's suggestion, he fell silent.

After a moment, he spoke in a cold voice, "Tang Zelong, have you gone mad? Adding 100,000 to each person? Your team in Canton has ten members, which amounts to one million."

"Such funds require layers of approval, and your request would be difficult to approve!"

"I know it's difficult to achieve, so I want to make a private donation. I will use my own money to increase the salaries of everyone in the team," Tang Zelong said.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I mean I'll give you the money, and you help me find a way to increase their salaries."

"Tang Zelong, you must be out of your mind. Your team has ten members, excluding yourself, nine people. If you give 900,000 per month, it would be 10.8 million per year, and 100 million in ten years..."

"Captain Liao, I'll do it for twenty years!"

Upon hearing this, Captain Liao on the other end of the phone fell even more silent. After two seconds, he spoke, "I almost forgot, you're a wealthy person!"

"Fine, I'll handle this matter for you."

"Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Zelong let out a long sigh and thought, "I wonder if this will help Bai Yang and the others."

"These people are truly troublesome. They refuse to accept money and insist that I do it this way. It's really a headache."

Long ago, he had wanted to support those teammates who were poor but had a strong sense of justice and dedication. 

However, those people mostly disliked borrowing money and refused others' assistance. 

They simply wanted to create their own careers, make achievements, and create wealth and glory with their own hands.

Helpless, he could only help them in this roundabout way.

Tang Zelong parked the car and entered a prestigious government institution in Canton.

In the old city area, there was a five-story villa.

Wang Chao returned home, took a shower, sat on the balcony, looked at the scenery, and smoked. His face was solemn, and he thought, "Did I really have sexual relations with Zhao Yihuan?"

It was the first time in his life that he got drunk and didn't know what happened after falling asleep.

His usual self would never be so careless. Perhaps it was because he trusted the Zhao family too much and felt relaxed in body and mind.

Just the thought of Zhao Yihuan lying in his arms made him feel that the situation was not simple.

However, if Zhao Yihuan said that nothing happened, he had no way to pursue the matter.

"I wouldn't take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state. There probably wasn't anything that happened," Wang Chao thought to himself.

"Wang Chao, come downstairs for dinner!!"

At that moment, Li Han's shout came from downstairs.

Wang Chao snapped out of his thoughts and replied, "Coming!"

He extinguished the cigarette and went downstairs, finding that the meal was already prepared.

The family sat down and prepared to have lunch.

Wang Chao took a deep breath and put his thoughts aside. He smiled and sat down, looking at the table full of dishes. He asked, "Mom, is there something worth celebrating today? Why do we have such a lavish meal?"

"We're having a family reunion today. Can't I eat well for that reason?" Li Han glared at him but couldn't hide her joy in her eyes.

"And besides, Baoqi is about to take the college entrance exam. We need to eat well and nourish our bodies," Wang Anguo said with a smile.

The two of them exchanged a glance, their faces beaming with joy. They ate and laughed heartily, as if they had won a big prize. While talking, they kept serving Wang Chao food.

Watching them, Wang Chao became even more confused.

Even when they moved into a new house, his parents weren't this happy.

What could have happened?

However, no matter how he inquired, his parents didn't reveal any information and remained tight-lipped.

Wang Chao looked at Li Han and was surprised to find that the Guanyin jade pendant she usually wore around her neck was missing. His expression changed, "Mom, did you... sell the Guanyin jade pendant that I gave you?"

Li Han was taken aback and then glared at Wang Chao, saying, "Nonsense! How could I sell such a precious thing? Mom wants to keep it for your children to wear. How is it possible to sell it?"

"Yeah, we don't need money right now, so why would we sell it?" Wang Anguo said.

"Then why are you both so happy? Did you win the lottery?" Wang Chao asked.

"Don't ask so many questions, eat your food. Here, have some Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup. It's great for replenishing your body."

Wang Anguo did not answer but scooped a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Wang Chao.

Inside the bowl, there was turtle meat, chicken testicles, and various shaped foods, all of them nourishing ingredients.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Wang Chao was speechless.

Eating so many nourishing ingredients might cause his nose to bleed.

"This was specially made for you by your mom this morning. Eat up!" Wang Anguo said.

"Yes, eat up. If it's not enough, Mom will go buy more," Li Han urged as well.

Under their insistence, Wang Chao could only drink a bowl of soup and, under the persuasion of his parents, finish all the turtle meat and chicken testicles.

"Come on, eat more!"

Just as he finished drinking, Li Han placed another bowl of soup in front of Wang Chao.

"Mom, I can't eat anymore," Wang Chao uttered with a wry smile.

"Even if you can't eat anymore, you still have to eat. Eat quickly," Li Han urged.

Wang Chao could only drink another bowl reluctantly.

Seeing Li Han wanting to serve him more soup, he quickly said, "Mom, I'm really full."

"Young people, why is your appetite so small?" Li Han frowned displeasedly at Wang Chao.

"Mom, I already had two bowls," Wang Chao said with a hint of frustration.

"What two bowls? Young people should have a big appetite. I don't care, you are going to drink another bowl," Li Han insisted.

Without any room for argument, Li Han served another bowl of Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup to Wang Chao and continuously urged him to drink it quickly.

Helpless, Wang Chao had to drink another bowl reluctantly.

Only after seeing Wang Chao finish drinking did Li Han feel satisfied. She tidied up the bowls and chopsticks, pulled Wang Anguo along, and picked up the candles and other things they had bought, heading out again.

"Sis, what's going on with Mom and Dad?" Wang Chao looked at Wang Baozhu, his eyes filled with confusion.

Wang Baozhu did not answer either. She also served a bowl of Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup in front of Wang Chao and said, "Drink it."

Wang Baoyu also placed a bowl of soup in front of Wang Chao. "Brother, drink it."

Wang Baoqi, Wang Cheng, and Wang Bin stood up and placed a bowl of Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup in front of Wang Chao. "Brother, drink it!"

Looking at the many bowls of Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup in front of him, Wang Chao burped uncontrollably. He glanced at all his sisters and brothers, becoming even more puzzled. "What are you all doing?"

"It's nothing, just drink the soup. I have to take Yingying to school," Wang Baozhu picked up Huang Ying, who was still eating, and immediately left.

"Brother, I have to go to work too," Wang Baoyu said.

"Brother, we have classes to attend. Good luck!" 

Wang Baoqi, Wang Bin, and Wang Cheng echoed in unison.

After saying that, they fled as if in a hurry, leaving the villa.

"What is all this?" Wang Chao could not make sense of it.

Why did he feel like everyone in the family was acting strange today? Why would they go to school in the middle of the day?

And why so much Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup?

Did they desire to make him bleed from being overnourished?

What was going on?

After consuming so much Turtle and Chicken Testicle Nourishing Soup, he felt a bit feverish all over.

"Wang Chao."

Just as he was puzzled, suddenly, a voice came. Wang Zuxian appeared at the door, dressed in a cool outfit, with a captivating smile.

Bare shoulders and a low-cut top, paired with short shorts.

Her long and slender legs looked even more alluring in high heels.

Thump, thump, thump!

Seeing Wang Zuxian's attire, Wang Chao's heart started pounding uncontrollably, and he felt even hotter.
