Chapter 65

Zhang Yuanyun not only has a big mouth, but also a thin upper lip and a thick lower lip, making her the type of woman who talks a lot and has strong desires.

If even she knows, then there is no one in this world who can be kept in the dark.

When in doubt, act decisively to avoid chaos; Liu Hao decided to clear things up with his wife tonight.

With such a clear image, even a fool would know it was him.

On the way home, Liu Hao spent over 300 yuan to buy two durians.

This might be the most expensive fruit in the world... of course, the ginseng fruit doesn't count, as it's from the heavens.

Although it hurt a bit, it was necessary to please his wife.

Actually, he detests durians, second only to stinky tofu. Both are too smelly; the former is so smelly that he can't bear it, and the latter, while edible, is so smelly that he wonders how it's made, especially since some people in Guangdong use sewage ditches to soak stinky tofu...

But his wife likes them, so he has no choice but to endure.

"Wow, you're in such a good mood today, buying me durians?" Zhang Yu asked in mock surprise, tying an apron and cooking in the kitchen. Soft music played in the living room, and the atmosphere was somewhat intimate.

Liu Hao glanced at the computer in the living room and was startled to see a photo of himself in an orange No. 14 jersey.

Oh... she really knows.

"Ha, there's no such thing as a washboard for sale these days, so I had to buy two durians. Two birds with one stone, right? And I thought it through; I bought two!" Liu Hao put down the durians and sat naturally in front of the computer.

This was practically a confession.

"What do you need a washboard for? Can it help you lose weight? Haha." Zhang Yu laughed, surprised by his frankness.

"Losing weight is unlikely, but hurting your knees would be a problem. Think about Ronaldo; his career was ruined by his knees." Liu Hao scratched his head, smiling wryly.

"Nonsense, his career was ruined by his nightlife."

"But he still had good knees!" Liu Hao countered, "Look at him; he retired at 35. I'm just starting my dream at 30. Would you bear to crush your husband's dreams?"

"Then how do you plan to explain things to my father? This news has spread like wildfire today. You know my father is an old football fan. Once this news broke, I don't believe he doesn't know that Liu Xiaopang is you!" Zhang Yu carried a dish out of the kitchen.

Liu Hao knew Zhang Yu wouldn't make things difficult for him, but he was afraid she would be troubled.

Her parents already thought he was a failure, and now he's playing football, which is even less practical.

Her father was even planning to help him get a promotion, and he's causing trouble?

Just because he's a football fan doesn't mean he can tolerate his son-in-law playing football! Liu Hao's primary responsibility should be to strive for a secure future for his daughter.

A married man should be responsible, not whimsical.

"At first, I thought it was fine since it didn't affect my work, but later I realized it not only affected my work but also changed my life. However, I also discovered that playing professional football can earn money... Do you know how our car in the garage came? I won it by playing football. I won a match for the Xiguang Super Team, and Cai Jin rewarded me. And every time I play a match, I get paid. I really don't want to give up this job." Liu Hao didn't directly answer Zhang Yu's question but explained the benefits of playing football.

"So, you have a lot of private savings now?" Zhang Yu's lips curled, revealing two shallow dimples.

"Cough, you're a math teacher, right? I've only played a few matches, but it's enough for the formula for our second child."

"Really?" Zhang Yu's bright eyes blinked, "Didn't the internet say you signed two contracts? Do you think Adidas and Nike are street vendors?"

Damn! Damn the editor! How did they leak everything...

The internet has detailed it more thoroughly than the news about the president!

Liu Hao slapped his thigh, looking quite angry.

"Every time I think about it, I get mad. It was the day my son called me dad... I went to shoot an ad, but when I got there, they ignored me and found a stand-in... As for the ad fee, it's still with Lai Yuxin. She manages the money, and it's about $30,000."

Zhang Yu's eyes gradually darkened. The information Liu Hao provided was overwhelming, and even with strong logic, she couldn't process it all at once. She felt a bit unbalanced!

$30,000, enough to buy half a 100-square-meter apartment in Yinzhou, not a small amount.

And Lai Yuxin...

"If I had known, I would have grabbed your ear and twisted it! It's so infuriating, hiding it for so long. I was puzzled why I always saw that fat guy, it turns out it was you! Damn it!"

Changing the subject, she continued, "Has Lai Yuxin become your agent? Isn't she Cai Jin's woman? Why is she managing your money? No way, from now on, I'll manage it. How can a man let another woman manage his money? What's your relationship with her? I have serious doubts. Who knows if you haven't already... you know..."

This... again, this woman, no matter what she thinks, as soon as it involves another woman, her suspicions arise.

"Does your husband look like a playboy? With my body? You've watched too much 'Beauty and the Beast'! She's a professional journalist, though we haven't officially married yet..."

"Unmarried and professional? Do you plan to marry her? Then marry me first!"

"Me... I meant the agent's license, where did your mind go? If you don't believe me, come with me to Hunan in a few days. I have a match there."

"Match? Fix things with my father first. He definitely knows, and I think he'll question you tomorrow. Get ready to be grilled!"

"Heh, you hit the point. The one to fix things with your father is not me, but you!" Liu Hao smiled foolishly, "You don't have class tomorrow, right? Don't let your father take out his anger on me. Oh, and your mother..."

"I'm afraid we won't make it to tomorrow..." Zhang Yu's phone vibrated violently, showing her mother's name, "My mom is calling."

!!! Speak of the devil, her mother must have found out.

"Answer it..."

Zhang Yu had no chance to speak; her mother chattered on the phone.

After hanging up, Zhang Yu laughed.

"Haha, this has really blown up. Guess what my mom called about?"

"What? It doesn't seem that serious?"

"Someone went to our house and said they wanted to do an interview."

"Interview about what?"

"About their son-in-law, of course."

"Ah? Your parents must be going crazy! Did the paparazzi find Yinzhou so quickly? Should we be on alert at home?" Liu Hao stood up and walked to the window. The sky wasn't dark yet, and people were hurrying by, but he didn't see anyone hiding in the bushes.

But he still pulled the curtains.

"We can't let them take pictures; paparazzi have no conscience."

"Do you really think you're a big star? Professor Do? Lee Min-ho? Or Zhang Dongjian? My mom said they're coming over..."

"Coming over? Who? What do you mean?" Liu Hao grabbed his hair, "Are your parents coming, or with the reporters?"

Ding dong! Ding dong! The doorbell really rang.

No way? The two exchanged glances.

It's just your parents coming, no need to act like they're burglars.

"Help me out in a bit!" Liu Hao felt guilty. He was thinking of avoiding them, but now that they've come, his mindset has changed. "What if we pretend we're not home? Don't open the door?"

Such a childish reason, no different from a child's.

"Or I'll stay in the room and say I'm not home?"

But Zhang Yu had already gone to open the door, and Liu Hao felt like he was facing a great enemy...

Father-in-law, mother-in-law, and a strange man? About the same age as him, around 30.

Could it be Mauro... so sleazy! Looks like a paparazzo, or maybe Robbie, or Jiuxi...

"Father, Mother, have you eaten?" Liu Hao smiled awkwardly, quickly welcoming them, "Who is this?"

Zhang Nan and Chen Pei nodded, their faces not looking crazy.

But they are used to being leaders and don't show their emotions.

"This is Mr. Huang Zongliang from the Xiguang Daily." Zhang Nan was unusually gentle.

But Liu Hao noticed something; the Xiguang Daily, no wonder his father-in-law was so polite... it's the most influential newspaper in Guangxi and an official publication.

Even the father-in-law's authority must be suppressed.

"This is the Liu Xiaopang, Liu Hao, you're looking for."

Introducing him so formally, the father-in-law must have something to say! Liu Hao smiled, extending his hand to shake hands with Huang Zongliang warmly, "Hello, hello!"

He expected to be scolded by his in-laws, but the current situation was unexpected. He should thank Huang Zongliang.

"Actually, we didn't consider this matter thoroughly. A talent like Liu Hao, if we let him leave the unit, it would be a huge loss to the unit. But we also want him to play football, as we can't bury his football talent..."

As Zhang Nan started talking, Liu Hao became even happier.

It turns out his father-in-law had his own plans. The situation took a turn for the better, and for the first time, he felt comfortable and at ease sitting in front of his in-laws...

"Our unit always encourages employees to enrich their leisure time and make greater contributions to the country..."
