119: Wish fulfilled

It was already ten in the morning when Xu Zimo picked up Tang Xinyi.

As she walked over, time seemed to freeze at that moment.

Today, Tang Xinyi had abandoned her usual simple style, donning the Balenciaga dress Xu Zimo had bought her.

The skirt swayed gently, like willow branches dancing in the morning breeze, both fashionable and elegant.

Perhaps it was because she was already a wife, but there was a hint of charm in her eyes that had never been there before, captivating Xu Zimo.

As soon as she got into the car, a sudden gust of wind blew Tang Xinyi's hair, and a few strands brushed lightly against her cheek, adding to her delicate charm.

She tilted her head slightly, gently smoothing her hair with her fingers; this simple action was full of endless allure, making Xu Zimo's heart beat even faster.

"What's wrong?"

With his constant gaze, Tang Xinyi thought there was something amiss with herself.

The next moment, Xu Zimo leaned in and captured her lips.

He only released her after a full ten minutes.

Although her lips were swollen, Tang Xinyi showed no hint of displeasure; in her watery eyes, only his presence existed.

A 100% favorability rating represented unwavering devotion.

"You are truly beautiful today,"

Xu Zimo praised her without reservation.

He genuinely felt that Tang Xinyi had undergone some changes in her demeanor, so he subconsciously checked her information.

Name: Tang Xinyi (Favorability: 100/100)

Age: 23

Height: 172 cm

Weight: 56 kg

Appearance: 90

Figure: 91

Experience: T1

Huh!

Xu Zimo clearly remembered that Tang Xinyi's appearance was 89 and her figure was 90.

Both had actually received a one-point boost.

The one-point increase in figure was not very noticeable, but the one-point increase in appearance was quite obvious.

Her face had not changed at all, but her overall aura and charm had transformed.

Every gesture exuded both the shyness of a young girl and the composure and gentleness of a wife.

Just like now, upon hearing Xu Zimo's compliment, Tang Xinyi's face immediately bloomed into a brilliant smile.

That smile contained both the innocence of a young girl and the allure and charm of a mature woman, making one involuntarily intoxicated.

A subtle fragrance seemed to permeate the air in the car.

It was her unique scent, a blend of fresh floral notes and a faint hint of home, bringing a sense of peace.

With every glance, each touch of their eyes felt like a silent invitation.

Xu Zimo never imagined that she, who once possessed a cool and aloof demeanor, was actually a devastatingly beautiful… enchantress.

"I'll deal with you when we get back!"

He threatened her fiercely before driving to the hotel where the banquet was being held.

The hotel was booked by Lu Jiaqi at Xu Zimo's request.

The Grand Hyatt Luxury Collection Hotel.

When Xu Zimo arrived, there were already quite a few people in the banquet hall.

His grandparents were seated at the head table, his parents were greeting Relatives and guests at the entrance of the banquet hall, and his aunt was keeping accounts.

"What were you doing...?"

Seeing Xu Zimo approach, his mother, Li Helian, was about to scold him for being so late, but the next moment, her gaze fell upon Tang Xinyi.

What a beautiful girl.

"Brother, this is...?"

His aunt's daughter, Fang Ya, came over, asking with a face full of curiosity.

"Can't you tell? She's clearly your sister-in-law."

His parents, his aunt who was keeping accounts, and some Relatives nearby all looked over.

Xu Zimo then began to introduce Tang Xinyi: "This is my father, this is my mother, this is my aunt..."

"Dad, Mom, this is your daughter-in-law, Tang Xinyi."

Tang Xinyi was visibly nervous, but she didn't want to leave a bad impression on Xu Zimo's parents and Relatives, so she bravely stepped forward: "Uncle..."

"Still calling him Uncle?"

Xu Zimo knew her wish and immediately interjected.

This was clearly unexpected for Tang Xinyi, and she was visibly flustered.

However, under Xu Zimo's encouraging gaze, she finally spoke: "Dad, Mom..."

Xu Jianguo and Li Helian were stunned.

When Xu Zimo came home the day before yesterday, he mentioned bringing someone back, but they didn't think much of it, assuming it was just a friend.

It turned out to be his future daughter-in-law?!

Li Helian was the first to react, stepping forward, pushing her son aside, and holding Tang Xinyi's hand: "Good, good child."

Now that the family lacked nothing in terms of food and clothing, as a mother, her biggest concern was her son's marriage.

She looked at the girl in front of her, and the more she looked, the more she liked her.

She then took her hand and said, "Perfect, all the Relatives are here today, I'll take you to meet them."

Xu Zimo rolled his eyes.

This was not about meeting Relatives; it was clearly about showing her off.

However, since his mother was happy, he certainly wouldn't stop her.

Moreover, after Tang Xinyi called them Dad and Mom, and his parents acknowledged it, the system's prompt immediately popped up.

Ding!

Congratulations, Host, on completing the lucky mission -- Tang Xinyi's Wish.

Reward: 10% shares of Dongye Group.

Shares are being transferred to the Host's name, please wait...

...Dongye Group.

As one of Xingcheng's top ten large groups, its industries are spread across various cities in the province, with total group assets reaching 10.445 billion.

The chairman, Gu Zheng, is a visionary.

Although he started with real estate and building materials, he began to expand into entertainment, catering, and various other fields more than a decade ago.

Therefore, when the real estate winter arrived, although Dongye Group was affected to some extent, it was not to the point of irreparable damage.

For the past six months, Gu Zheng has had a troubling matter.

Someone has been systematically acquiring shares of Dongye Group; although it is compliant and legal, as of the day before yesterday, it has reached ten percent, already making them the second-largest shareholder of Dongye Group besides himself.

He tried various methods to investigate multiple times but to no avail.

The person behind it never appeared, and in several shareholder meetings, only a proxy was sent to attend.

This is not a small matter.

But there was nothing he could do; after all, Dongye Group's main businesses used to be real estate and building materials, and although the impact was small, there was still an impact.

After this ten percent of capital was injected, Dongye Group was completely stabilized.

Moreover, although the person behind it held shares, they never interfered with the group's affairs, and always sided with him in every decision.

"Chairman!"

Shen Yun, the Chairman's assistant, knocked on the door and entered.

"What is it?"

Gu Zheng, who was browsing documents, didn't even lift his head.

"Good news, the natural person information for that ten percent of shares just changed."

"Change?"

A change represented uncertainty, and he didn't know the background of this person either.

"Send me his information."

Xu Zimo's information was very clean: family background, source of funds, all clear.

An ordinary person, actually stirring up such a big commotion internationally... it was truly incredible.

Moreover, according to the information, the funds used to purchase Dongye Group's shares did not seem to be all of his assets.
