After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

"I guess I should call you Miss Tan now. Why are you here today?" He Ning asked.

Tan Jing had seen He Ning before. He used to be a very skinny man who went around in a wheelchair and looked like a walking corpse. Now that He Ning's health was gradually improving and he looked radiant, this was the first time she felt that he actually looked elegant and handsome.

"Miss Tan, are you listening to me?" He Ning raised his voice at Tan Jing impatiently.

"Oh! I… I'm here to make a deal with you," Tan Jing said shyly.

He Ning could feel goosebumps all over his body. This was the first time he had seen Tan Jing like this. He was used to seeing beautiful women. It was rare for him to see someone like Tan Jing, who was at the age when she had wrinkles all over her face and yet she still deliberately applied so much makeup on her face. Tan Jing's face was so white that it looked as if it was painted on. When he saw Tan Jing's seductive smile just now, he felt like getting a washcloth to wipe away all her makeup.

"A deal? What kind of deal do you plan to make with me? You must know that I'm not interested in business that loses money," He Ning said cautiously.

He had just gone to do Qiao Mei a favor and Tan Jing had now come knocking on his door to cause trouble. He could not afford to make Qiao Mei angry at this juncture. Once He Mei's child was born, Qiao Mei would definitely vent her anger on him. For now, he wanted to avoid as much trouble as possible.

"This… There are too many people in this room. I can only say it when we're alone," Tan Jing looked around and said warily.

Tan Jing was just a woman and he was sure that she would not dare to cause trouble in the He family's house. She did not have the strength to assassinate He Ning or do anything to perish together with him.

He Ning asked Huo Gao to lead everyone out of the room, leaving the two of them alone in the living hall. Tan Jing went to sit down next to He Ning, almost making him jump up in fright. However, he was a seasoned man, so he just coughed lightly and pretended to be calm.

"There's no one in the room already. You can say it now," He Ning said awkwardly.

"I… I want you to marry me!" Tan Jing said.

He Ning looked at Tan Jing with his mouth agape. He even thought that he had heard wrongly and asked in shock, "What did you say?"

"I said that I want you to marry me. It just so happens that you don't have a wife now and I'm also not married. I think we can be together. If I join the He family, I won't restrict your movements…" Before Tan Jing could finish talking about her plans for the future, He Ning quickly interrupted her and said, "Why should I marry you?"

"I… I know the Xia family's secrets! Just marry me! I'll tell you all these things!" Tan Jing said confidently.

He Ning only wanted to get hold of Xia Zhe and then Qiao Mei. Why would he want to force the Xia family to a dead end? What good would it do him?

If the Xia family was destroyed, then Xia Zhe would be worthless. By then, it would be useless even if he got hold of Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei would also hate him greatly. He Ning was not a fool and would not do such a thing.

Seeing that He Ning did not speak, Tan Jing thought that he was happy with her proposal. She continued, "I just need to be Mrs. He. I don't care if you have another woman or children outside. Just give me a sum of money every month and I'll stay at home obediently and not go anywhere. Don't worry, I won't do anything to hurt you!"

"I have indeed thought about getting married, but definitely not with you. I don't need to know the Xia family's secrets. You should go and look for someone else," He Ning said.

Tan Jing lowered her head in disappointment. She got up to leave to look for another family. There would always be people who would be interested in the Xia family's secrets.

Just as Tan Jing was about to leave the He family's house, He Ning stopped her and said, "Although I can't marry you, I can introduce you to someone."

"Who?" Tan Jing asked.

"The current chief of the capital's police department, Huang Quan. His wife just died and he's looking for a new wife. He's about five years older than you and is a perfect match for you. He's my subordinate. As long as I say the word, he will definitely marry you," He Ning said.

Tan Jing was overjoyed. She had never dreamed that she would be able to be the wife of the police chief in her life! She quickly agreed to this matter and left the He family residence feeling satisfied.
