Lady Meilin is seduced by her green tea brother-in-law everyday-Chapter 248: The con man strikes again.

For a couple that loved risky sex, doing it in a flying car and the presence of their child that was distracted by technology was a thrill. Mo Liang’s strategy worked like a charm. By the time, the car reached the parking outside Tang Yue’s building, they had reconciled.

As they righted their clothes, Mo Liang said to her, "Honey, you know that everything I do is for you and Hao. It is for our family to live wealthy, respectful lives. The Empress promised to make me a noble as long as I keep Mei Mei and the Emperor apart. The only way to do that is for me to tie her down.

As long as she is legally my wife, she cannot be involved with the Emperor. If I say any nice thing about her, it is because I am trying to convince myself of this so that I can be believable whenever I meet her."

"A noble!" Tang Yue gasped. "The Empress is going to make you a noble!"

Mo Liang nodded and he smiled smugly. "Not just any noble but a duke, marquis or an earl. I can also take a viscount title but I want top three. Only then can I be equal in status to the Jun’s. Don’t you want to be the wife of noble?"

Tang Yue clapped her hands and squealed. "Of course I would. Honey...can this really happen?" She was already picturing herself shopping and eating in the places nobles loved.

People would throw flowers at her feet and address her as Lady Tang Yue or Her grace, Tang Yue. Maybe she would even be the Empress’s new best friend. That was much more prestigious than being Jun Meilin’s friend. Her son would also be noble and he would marry a noble woman.

Mo Liang grasped her hands and said, "That is why I need you to cooperate with me. Just as you cooperated back then when I went after Jun Meilin, do the same now."

Tang Yue’s job back then had been to whisper nice things to Mei Mei about Mo Hao, exaggerate his heroism, kindness, intelligence and looks. She had to make it seem as if all the girls in school were in love with him.

80% of the love letters that Mo Liang received were written by her and made it appear like other girls were writing them. She even used her money to send him gifts which she would deliver in Mei Mei’s presence to manipulate her into being jealous.

Their plans had worked. Mei Mei had been proud to be the one that got the boy everyone else wanted. They had played her like a fiddle.

Mo Liang kissed Tang Yue’s palms. "Babe, everything for you and Hao to go abroad is ready. I made the Empress pay for the condo where you will be living in full. It is in your name’s and the documents are on the table in that condo. Your job is also ready as is Hao’s school that he will be attending starting next year.

The Empress has paid tuition for three years so far. As long as I am on this mission she assigned, me, she will continue to pay expenses.

You are going to have two housekeepers whose yearly salaries have also been paid and a nanny. Two cars and a driver. Everything is ready, even the private plane which is going to fly you out.

She also invested in a children’s clothing company that is famous over there and they will use Hao as a brand ambassador. All the money you have spent, you will earn back. You must think about Hao too when making your decisions. In this empire, he is not popular. Elsewhere, people won’t really mind his background. They still like the national space baby in other places."

Tang Yue was nodding, showing her willingness to finally play ball.

"And I will visit every month. I own a space company and I am a pilot. With all the money the Empress is paying me, taking trips to see you is not a problem. We can even take vacations together." He run a hand through her hair and leaned in, looking directly in her eyes. "You are my wife. Jun Meilin is just a job. This is no different from the plan that we made to use her even after I divorced her." He kissed her right between the eyebrows. "Nod if you understand."

She nodded. For a chance to be the wife of a noble man, she was willing to return to the shadows temporarily.

At Mei Mei’s house, she was seeing off her friends when Jingzhe returned. He was not empty handed, he had a gift box which was covered. Mei Mei almost considered shutting the gates and ordering him to turn back. But she didn’t, so Jingzhe and his box made it into the house.

"Hey." She greeted with him with a smile first.

He handed the box to mama Chen and hugged her. Embracing her was the only way he could truly assure himself that he was home, she was real and they were dating.

"Long day?" she asked.

"Very long." He groaned tiredly.

"Cosmosis explosion related or first day as an advisor related?" She asked while leading him upstairs.

Madam Feng peeked out of the living room. "So, no hugs for your mother?"

Jingzhe returned downstairs and hugged her. "Sorry mom, it has been a very long day."

She pinched his ear. "For me too you brat and yet I had time to prepare your dinner. You got a wife and now you see nothing but her."

A shy smile played on Jingzhe’s lips. "Mom, its not like that. I am just eager to show Mei Mei something."

Madam Feng sighed. When they said a grown girl could not be kept at home, they forgot about the boys. Even grown boys could not be kept at home. Her son was a fool in love. It could not be helped.

She shoved him away and then pulled him back. "Ah..before you rush upstairs and start hugging and kissing, remind Mei Mei to return my granddaughter. I never agreed to share custody of Mingzhu with Lady Chi. They can’t just steal my baby as they please."

Jingzhe was so anxious to show Mei Mei his surprise so he nodded. He gave his mother a treat from his pocket just like she had given Mei Mei. Then he run off like he had the world’s biggest emergency.

Madam Feng looked at the candy wrapper and she tightened her hand around the candy. Jingzhe did this for her everyday, bringing home candies, cookies, brownies and other snacks. When he was not around, he collected them and gave them to her at once, making up for the missed days.

She used to do it for him as a kid and when he became an adult, she stopped. He turned around and adopted the habit. "This kid, he still knows how to bring gifts for his mother."

Mei Mei was upstairs looking at the covered box Mama Chen had placed on her bed with tension. "I hope that this is not another leech." She muttered.
