Liuli smiled even more happily.
So Uncle Tang had such a side to him!
"Haha, I don't believe you!
Is there any benefit in marrying me, Uncle Tang?
If there is, you can't monopolize it. You have to share it with me!"
"In the future, I'll give you half of my personal assets.
"Is this a form of sharing?" Tang Moxi asked with a smile.
"Sure, sure. You look very rich!" Liuli immediately nodded.
"But you can only get it after we get a divorce." Tang Moxi added.
Liuli blinked and said in exasperation,
"Then why don't you just share it with me now? Why go through so much trouble?"
"There's no way for me to give it to you directly, because this is considered shared assets between husband and wife.
If we're not married, we won't be husband and wife, so we won't have shared assets," Tang Moxi explained patiently.
"Uh…" Liuli miscalculated.
Honestly, she actually didn't covet Uncle Tang's assets that much.
However, after hearing Uncle Tang's words just now, she suddenly felt that she had become very rich!
After a while, Liuli couldn't help but ask,
"Are we really just faking our marriage?"
"It's not a fake marriage. It's a real marriage!" Tang Moxi corrected.
"No, I mean, we're just registering our marriage and holding a banquet to make Elder Tang happy.
It's not a real marriage, right?!" Liuli quickly explained.
"If you really want a real marriage, we can have one!"
Liuli blushed.
Just now, she had found it funny and didn't feel embarrassed.
"Liuli, you haven't changed yet?!"
At this moment, her mother's slightly surprised voice sounded.
When Liuli turned around, she saw that her mother had already changed into new clothes and was coming down the stairs.
"Why do I have to change clothes?" Liuli asked in confusion.
"Why are you so forgetful? Didn't we agree to go out for dinner with Elder Tang and Brother Jingxing?"
"Oh, I didn't hear you guys just now. Then I'll go up and change now. I'll be down immediately," Liuli quickly replied.
She didn't know what they had just said!
She only heard that the date had been settled, but she didn't expect them to be talking about her wedding with Uncle Tang.
"This child…" Lin Yu looked at her daughter in frustration and sighed softly.
When she turned around, she saw that Young Master Tang was still there.
Therefore, she smiled and said,
"This child is always so rash!"
"It's good that Liuli is very lively!" Tang Moxi replied with a faint smile.
"I'll have to trouble you to put up with her in the future. She's young and willful."
"Aunt Yu, don't worry. I'll take good care of Liuli!" Tang Moxi replied.
This promise from him was more than enough.
"I'm relieved to hear that." Lin Yu nodded.
After Liuli changed her clothes, her father and Elder Tang came out of the study.
Her mother pushed her grandmother, who had also changed into new clothes, out of the room.
It seemed that this banquet was very grand!
Liuli couldn't help but lament inwardly.
Of course, she didn't dare to say it out loud. Otherwise, she would be scolded by her mother again.
The two families went to the Fragrance Garden for dinner.
Liuli was quickly attracted by the delicious food.
According to Duoduo, she was a foodie.
As long as there was food, she could forget all her worries.
After dinner, the elders continued to chat.
Elder Tang asked Jingxing to bring Liuli out for a walk.
Their intention was to let the couple spend more time together before marriage.
This way, their married life would be more harmonious.
For Liuli, this was simply liberation!
Even if it was temporary, it was good!
After dinner, they sat there quietly as they listened to the elders discuss the details of their wedding.
To her, it was simply torture!
Now that Elder Tang asked Uncle Tang to take her out for a walk, she was overjoyed.
With an obedient expression, she said goodbye to her family and Elder Tang.
Then, she followed Uncle Tang out of the private room obediently.
Almost as soon as they walked out of the private room and got into Tang Moxi's car, Liuli couldn't help but laugh.
Tang Moxi looked at her with a smile.
"You seem so happy!"
"Of course. Aren't you happy?" Liuli turned to look at him.
"I'm okay!" Tang Moxi replied.
"I can't act too happy?!" Liuli asked as she let go and stood up straight.
"What do you mean?" Tang Moxi asked Liuli with a smile.
He wasn't in a hurry to drive.
"If I act too happy, doesn't that mean that I'm really against marrying you?" Liuli replied confidently.
Tang Moxi looked at Liuli, but didn't respond.
He just stared at Liuli quietly.
Liuli vaguely heard Tang Moxi mutter… Liuli, Liuli.
His deep and pleasant voice sounded affectionate, but there seemed to be a hint of forbearance in it!
"Sorry…"
At this moment, Tang Moxi suddenly let go of her and apologized in a low voice.
Liuli felt as if the warmth had been sucked away.
A chill ran down her spine.
She stared at Tang Moxi in a daze.
"I'm sorry, but you're still too young. I'll wait for you to grow up!" Tang Moxi apologized again as he stroked her messy hair.
Then, he smiled bitterly. He really had to wait for quite some time!
After a while, Tang Moxi asked,
"Where do you want to go?"
He acted as if nothing had happened.
"Where… where do you want to go?" Liuli came back to her senses and asked, but her ears were still burning.
This was her first kiss! Ah! Ah!
It was gone just like that.
She had yet to react!
Alright, it wasn't that she wanted more. She just found it difficult to accept!
"I'm fine with anything. I'll go wherever you want me to!" Tang Moxi asked Liuli with a smile.
"Then can you bring me to a bar? I've never been to a bar in my life!" Liuli said with her head lowered.
Then, she stole a glance at Uncle Tang's sexy lips and her ears burned again.
"Why do you want to go to a bar?" Tang Moxi asked with a smile.
"I'm curious!" Liuli replied timidly while trying her best to act normal.
Actually, she had yet to fully recover from the kiss.
"You can't go without me in the future!" Tang Moxi requested.
"Got it. You're treating me like a child again!" Liuli resisted the urge to roll her eyes and protested.
Tang Moxi did as he was told and brought Liuli to the bar.
However, to Liuli's surprise, the bar wasn't noisy at all. It was very quiet and there was only soft music playing.
Whispers could be heard, but it was unclear what they were saying.
Tang Moxi sat down at the bar with Liuli. The bartender was clearly surprised to see Tang Moxi and raised his eyebrows with a smile.
"Long time no see! When did you come back?"
"I just came back a few days ago," Tang Moxi replied before introducing, "Ken is the best bartender here. This is my girlfriend, Liuli!"
When the bartender called Ken heard Tang Moxi's introduction, his jaw almost dropped.
"Girlfriend? Did I mishear you?!"
He looked at Liuli in disbelief.
"You did mishear. Actually, I'm his niece!" Liuli replied with an obedient and cute smile.
"I knew it. How could that be possible?!" Ken smiled and turned to ask Liuli, "What do you want to drink? My treat."
"What can I order?" Liuli asked with a smile.
"Anything is fine as long as it's available!"
"Then recommend one to me!"
"Give her a glass of fruit juice!" Tang Moxi said.
Liuli immediately turned to look at Tang Moxi and protested.
"Who comes to a bar to drink juice?!"
"Why not? I often come here to drink soda!" Tang Moxi took the soda from Ken and replied.
"He's a freak. Ignore him. I'll make you a cup of Baileys Irish Cream!" Ken comforted Liuli.
"Ken, she can't drink!" Tang Moxi reminded with a frown.
"One cup shouldn't be a problem!" Ken said with a smile.
"That's right!" Liuli immediately agreed.
Her impression of Ken instantly improved.
Ken began to mix Baileys Irish Cream for Liuli.
"Ken, she calls me Uncle. If you ask her to call you Brother, what should you call me?" Tang Moxi didn't drink the water. He only shook the square cup slightly as he glanced at Ken with a faint smile.
"No way!" Ken looked at Liuli with a smile, as if asking her if this was true.
"Brother Ken looks younger!" Liuli said fearlessly.
After saying that, she giggled like a child who had succeeded in a prank.
"You're such a sweet talker!" Ken nodded in satisfaction.
Tang Moxi shook his head helplessly as he looked at Liuli with affection.
Ken quickly mixed the Baileys Irish Cream and placed it on the counter in front of Liuli.
This was the first time Liuli had drunk a cocktail, so it was very novel to her.
"Brother Ken's cocktail is so delicious!" Liuli studied the cocktail excitedly as she praised.
She couldn't help but pick up the cup and take a sip. It was quite delicious and didn't look or taste like alcohol at all.
