Pampering My Husband Every Day

Wu Tong's purpose was only to find an opportunity to talk to her Second Uncle again, not to disturb his business discussion. So, after entering the room, she consciously found a place to sit quietly.

At this time, Qin Ge also walked in, holding Fei Fei. He casually glanced over the Wu family members, his gaze not lingering on the young lady who was most likely his future wife. Instead, he walked directly to his mother, nodded slightly as a greeting, and then found a seat and sat down.

"This is my eldest son, Qin Ge. Qin Ge, this is Mr. Wu, the head of Wu's Food, and his family," Mother Qin introduced.

"Hello," Qin Ge nodded curtly.

Second Uncle Wu felt the atmosphere was a bit cold and chuckled, trying to warm things up.

Although Qin Ge didn't show much curiosity towards their family when he entered, their family's eyes hadn't left Qin Ge since he walked in.

Mrs. Wu thought that although this Eldest Young Master Qin wasn't as refined as Second Young Master Qin, he was still a decent young man. It was just that the scar at the corner of his eye made him look a bit fierce, and his temper didn't seem very good. However, in a large family, who didn't have a young master's temper?

Wu Kai was a little envious of Qin Ge's physique, his overflowing masculine energy and the bulging muscles on his exposed arms were truly enviable. This was what masculine charm looked like!

As for the female protagonist, Wu Zhizhi, she felt uneasy. This wasn't what she had imagined. Wasn't he supposed to have the same gentlemanly demeanor as Second Young Master Qin? These jeans and a tight-fitting T-shirt, he looked like a brute. Not to mention the scar on his face and the rustic crew cut.

"Qin Ge, right? I heard you were in the military before," Mrs. Wu asked with a smile.

"Yes, but I was medically discharged two years ago due to an injury," Qin Ge replied casually.

Injured? Injured where? A medical discharge must have been due to a serious injury. Wu Zhizhi secretly sized up Qin Ge, recalling his appearance when he entered the room. Fortunately, he didn't seem to have any disabilities.

"Then… is your body alright? Have you recovered?" Mrs. Wu asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I recovered a long time ago. I'm not crippled," Qin Ge sneered.

"Oh… I didn't mean that," Mrs. Wu hurriedly denied. "I was just showing some concern."

"Qin Ge, speak properly." Mother Qin first reprimanded her son, then put on a smiling face and explained to Mrs. Wu, "My son, he's just been in the military for too long, his temper is a bit rough, but he's not a bad person."

"Of course, soldiers defend our country, their character is naturally trustworthy," Second Uncle Wu nodded repeatedly in agreement. This was related to the survival of his family's business, and there was absolutely no room for error.

Moreover, he had already inquired before coming. This Eldest Young Master Qin, apart from having a bad temper, didn't have any major problems. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to let his precious daughter come on this blind date.

After everyone exchanged some more pleasantries, Wu Tong, who had been sitting quietly in the back observing, finally figured things out. So, this was a blind date for her cousin? With that Qin Ge across from them?

Qin Ge seemed to sense someone watching him and his eyes accurately caught the gaze. Wu Tong didn't expect to be caught peeking and, after a moment of surprise, smiled embarrassedly.

Qin Ge raised an eyebrow. It seemed that the woman on this blind date was quite bold and didn't have the affected coyness of those delicate young ladies.

"Come, Qin Ge, this is Mr. Wu's treasured daughter, Zhizhi," Mother Qin introduced with a smile.

"Hello, Big Brother Qin, I'm Wu Zhizhi." Wu Zhizhi smiled, just the right amount of shyness mixed in.

Qin Ge glanced at her. He had seen all kinds of people. Did she think a forced smile could hide the disdain in her eyes? Truly unsightly. "Wu Zhi? What an interesting name." (He misheard her name as 無知 - Wu Zhi (ignorant) instead of 吳芝芝 - Wu Zhizhi.)

The Wu family's faces immediately changed, and Wu Zhizhi was so angry she almost cried.

"Qin Ge!" Mother Qin said with displeasure. "Mind your manners."

"It's okay, it's okay. Eldest Young Master Qin must be joking. It's normal for men and women to be a little uncomfortable when they first meet. Why don't we let them go out for a walk so they can get to know each other better?" Mrs. Wu, receiving her husband's eye signal, suggested with a smile.

"That's fine…"

"No need to bother," Qin Ge interrupted directly. "I've said before, it doesn't matter who I marry, the important thing is who Fei Fei chooses to be his mother."

As soon as Qin Ge finished speaking, even the Qin family, who already knew his plan, frowned, let alone the Wu family, whose faces became even more unsightly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhizhi's heart sank. Not only did Qin Ge have a bad temper, he actually had a son! She felt incredibly wronged.

"Mr. Wu, Mrs. Wu, please don't misunderstand. This child is the orphaned son of Qin Ge's comrade, and Qin Ge adopted him," Mother Qin hurriedly explained.

The Wu family's expressions eased slightly upon hearing this.

"Although Fei Fei is not my biological son, I will treat him better than my own," Qin Ge said to the Wu family with conviction. "Let me put it this way, if my future wife is not good to Fei Fei, then I will not have children with her."

Too much! Wu Zhizhi's nails were practically digging into her palms. I don't even want to marry you!

"Haha…" Second Uncle Wu's laughter was a bit strained this time. "Well, our Zhizhi also loves children very much. She even volunteers at the orphanage during holidays."

"Really? It's wonderful that Zhizhi is so caring," Mother Qin said, already treating her as her future daughter-in-law.

Qin Ge smiled indifferently and lowered his head, whispering to Fei Fei, "Remember what Daddy told you before we came upstairs? Look up."

As Qin Ge spoke, the room fell silent. Everyone was waiting for the little boy's response. One minute, two minutes… Just as everyone was about to lose patience, Fei Fei finally raised his head.

Wu Tong was stunned. Wasn't this the little boy she had bumped into in the lobby?

The child seemed to sense something and glanced at Wu Tong. Wu Tong returned a friendly smile.

As if startled, the child quickly lowered his head, clutching his toy stiffly.

Qin Ge looked at Wu Tong strangely. Wu Tong was also bewildered. She thought she was usually quite popular with children, it shouldn't be to the point of scaring them.

"Fei Fei, Fei Fei, it's Grandma," Mother Qin coaxed the child. "Look up at the pretty Auntie over there. Would you like her to be your mommy?"

Mother Qin coaxed for a long time, and just when everyone thought Fei Fei wouldn't look up again, he finally raised his head. Guided by Mother Qin's excited voice, he stared at Wu Zhizhi for three minutes, yes, a full three minutes without blinking.

Wu Zhizhi felt her face stiffen from smiling.

"Fei Fei, do you like this pretty Auntie?" Mother Qin asked patiently. However, after looking at Wu Zhizhi, little Fei Fei lowered his head again and remained silent.

Just as everyone held their breath, waiting for an answer, little Fei Fei suddenly leaned against Qin Ge and closed his eyes.

"This…" Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Fei Fei is sleepy. I'm taking him back for a nap." Qin Ge picked up Fei Fei and was about to leave.

"Where are you going? This isn't over yet!" Mother Qin said angrily.

"No need. He's already chosen. Her." Qin Ge pointed at Wu Tong.

"Me?" Wu Tong pointed at herself dumbfounded, feeling that something was definitely wrong.

Second Uncle Wu's family was also bewildered. What did this have to do with Wu Tong?

The Qin family was also baffled. This whole time, the meeting was about Wu Zhizhi. What did this other girl have to do with anything?

"Where's Qin Ge?" Mother Qin returned after a brief absence to find her eldest son gone.

"Big Brother left," Qin Huai said.

"…" Mother Qin felt like her decades of cultivated composure were about to be shattered by her eldest son.

"Madam Qin, what's going on?" Mrs. Wu asked, her face darkening.

"Mrs. Wu, this is a misunderstanding. He… Qin Ge probably thought this young lady… was also your daughter. He might have mistaken the person he was supposed to meet," Madam Qin explained.

"Then what do we do now?" Mrs. Wu asked.

"This…" Mother Qin didn't know how to answer.

"Mr. Wu, I think we'll end our discussion here today. As for the cooperation, I'll discuss it with the various departments back at the company and contact you later," Qin Huai suddenly stood up and said.

"Ah, yes, then I'll await your news." Second Uncle Wu's expression turned serious at the mention of cooperation.

"Then we'll take our leave."

The Wu family stood up and watched the three members of the Qin family leave the room. Second Uncle Wu even personally escorted them to the door. After making sure they were gone, he closed the door with a look of helplessness.

"Dad, Mom, what did they mean by that?" Wu Zhizhi immediately complained.

"Exactly, they were so disrespectful. Weren't they supposed to be interested in marrying my sister? I didn't see him acting like he wanted to marry anyone," Wu Kai chimed in.

"Liren, what do you think…?" Mrs. Wu also felt uneasy and wanted to discuss it further with her husband.

"Enough, do you think I don't know the Qin family's attitude wasn't good? The problem is, right now, I'm… the one trying to curry favor with them," Second Uncle Wu said, full of resentment. "You know the company's situation. If Qin doesn't cooperate with us this time, we won't last long."

"Is it really that serious?" Mrs. Wu asked.

"If it wasn't serious, would I be here putting up with their condescending attitude?" Second Uncle Wu snapped.

"Dad!" Wu Zhizhi hesitated for a moment. "Dad, I'm not against a business marriage, but doesn't the Qin family have two sons? Could we…"

"You mean Second Young Master Qin? Countless prominent young ladies are lining up to marry Second Young Master Qin. Do you think we even have a chance at a blind date with him?" Second Uncle Wu said.

"Our Zhizhi isn't bad either," Mrs. Wu disagreed.

"I didn't say our daughter is bad, I'm saying they wouldn't look at her… Anyway, tomorrow I'll ask someone to find out what Eldest Young Master Qin usually does. Zhizhi, you should take the initiative to approach him," Second Uncle Wu said.

"Oh," Wu Zhizhi replied reluctantly.

"And you… what are you doing here?" Second Uncle Wu turned to Wu Tong and roared.

"Second Uncle, Second Uncle, I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know you were here for a blind date today," Wu Tong said guiltily. "I really couldn't find you anywhere. I had no other choice, so when I saw you just now, I rushed in without thinking."

"I know what you're going to say. I'm also very heartbroken about Xiao Yuan being in the hospital. If the medical expenses are a problem, I can cover them all…"

"Second Uncle, I have the money for the treatment, but Xiao Yuan's illness requires a suitable bone marrow transplant. I went to the hospital for a match, but the results were negative. The doctor suggested…"

"You're his older sister, and you're not a match. It's even less likely for us, who are a generation removed, to be a match," Second Aunt Wu interrupted Wu Tong before she could finish.

"No, Second Aunt, I asked the doctor. The success rate of matching among relatives is still relatively high. Although I'm not a match, you still have a certain chance of success, especially Second Uncle…"

"Your Second Uncle is so old, how can he undergo a bone marrow transplant? Your younger brother's life is important, but isn't your Second Uncle's life important too?" Mrs. Wu pointed at Wu Tong and scolded.

"No, Second Aunt, I asked the doctor. Bone marrow transplantation won't affect the donor's health…"

"Of course you'd say that. You're just trying to trick us into donating bone marrow to Xiao Yuan," Wu Zhizhi said.

"I'm not lying to you. I really consulted the doctor. If it would affect your health, I wouldn't have asked," Wu Tong said anxiously. "Second Uncle, Xiao Yuan's condition hasn't been good. The hospital hasn't been able to find a suitable bone marrow match. You, Cousin, and Cousin are our last hope. You watched my brother and me grow up, please save Xiao Yuan."

"Tong Tong, it's not that Second Uncle doesn't want to help you, but even if I go, I might not be a match," Second Uncle Wu softened a bit, seeing Wu Tong crying so sadly.

"It's okay, as long as you go, even if it's not successful, I'll be grateful to you for the rest of my life," Wu Tong said sincerely.

Seeing her husband softening, Mrs. Wu pulled him aside and said, "Your health isn't good to begin with. Donating bone marrow is no joke. And with the company in its current state, what will we do if you collapse too?"

"…" Second Uncle Wu pondered for a moment, then turned to Wu Tong and said, "Second Uncle will have someone send you some more money tomorrow to buy Xiao Yuan more delicious food. Maybe Xiao Yuan will find a suitable bone marrow soon."

"Second Uncle, I don't want money…"

"Second Uncle has something to do, I'll be going now." With that, Second Uncle Wu avoided Wu Tong and walked directly out the door.

Wu Tong wanted to follow, but Second Aunt Wu blocked her way. "Wu Tong, don't take this the wrong way, but you can't be so selfish. Your brother is your family, but so is your Second Uncle. And your Second Uncle has to take care of our family. Don't come looking for us again."

"Second Aunt, please help me. As long as you help me this time, I'll do anything you ask…"

The door slammed shut. Wu Tong leaned against the door, ultimately not chasing after them again. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Xiao Yuan, don't worry, Sister won't give up. Sister will find a way to save you."

=========

Emerald Mountain, Qin Residence.

"What did you mean by that today?" Mother Qin roared at Qin Ge, holding back a bellyful of anger.

"Why are you so angry? Didn't I make my choice?" Qin Ge asked, puzzled.

"What choice? You did that on purpose, didn't you? I introduced you to the Wu family's daughter, and you randomly pointed at someone completely unrelated. Why?" Mother Qin questioned.

"She's not from the Wu family?" Qin Ge asked in surprise.

"Brother, she's Mr. Wu's niece," Qin Huai explained.

"Isn't she still part of the Wu family? It's a business marriage anyway, what's the difference between a daughter and a niece?" Qin Ge retorted.

"So, according to you, you actually took a liking to Mr. Wu's niece?" Father Qin, who had been listening for a while, suddenly spoke.

"She's pleasant enough to look at, and Fei Fei doesn't dislike her," Qin Ge said.

The three members of the Qin family exchanged glances. Someone Fei Fei didn't dislike. That was a first! Although they weren't entirely sure how to differentiate between Fei Fei's likes and dislikes.
