After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

“Uh?”

Li Manni blinked her beautiful eyes, a bashful expression blooming across her delicate face.

She naturally understood what Yang Hao meant, though she knew he was mostly joking.

But in reality, Li Manni had always felt indebted to her brother-in-law. Since high school, he had taken on the expenses of her tutoring fees and the like.

After attending university, it was also her brother-in-law who provided for most of her living expenses. Even though the money was always given by her sister Li Manshu, Li Manni wasn’t foolish; where would her sister get that money? It was surely her brother-in-law’s.

Later, when it came to her job, if it weren’t for Yang Hao’s constant support and the doors he opened, how could she have possibly become the host of “My Idol”?

It could be said that without her brother-in-law Yang Hao, there would be no her today!

So, gratitude truly could not be merely expressed with words!

Therefore, even if Yang Hao was joking, Li Manni took it to heart.

She took a deep breath, then lifted her head to gaze into Yang Hao’s eyes, and suddenly threw her arms around him.

“Uh?”

Now it was Yang Hao’s turn to be stunned.

He really had just been kidding before.

He hadn’t expected that his little niece-by-marriage would take it seriously.

“Brother-in-law, I’ve actually always liked you a lot!”

Li Manni rested her head on Yang Hao’s shoulder, in this position she couldn’t see his eyes, and nor could he see hers.

That’s why Li Manni dared to voice the words that had long been buried in her heart.

“Brother-in-law, can we take care of Xixi together in the future?”

Li Manni continued.

“Mhm, sure!”

After a moment of brief astonishment, Yang Hao gently patted Li Manni’s back.

As for his young and beautiful niece-by-marriage, he could be said to have “coveted her for a long time,” but Yang Hao had always been somewhat hesitant to make a move.

It was mainly because they were too familiar with each other.

Sometimes, that’s how it is; being too familiar actually makes it harder to take action.

Of course, Yang Hao also had a moral barrier psychologically.

After all, Li Manni was the sister of his ex-wife Li Manshu.

For a long time, he only regarded Li Manni as his own sister!

He could even say that Li Manni was someone he watched grow up, so if he truly made a move on her, he would feel guilty.

But as time passed,

and wealth continued to accumulate,

Yang Hao’s psychological barriers gradually dissolved.

Now, as Li Manni initiated a hug, though he was somewhat surprised, deep down he could accept it, and even felt a bit of secret delight.

The relationship between them had finally taken an important step forward!

While Yang Hao was lost in his muddled thoughts, Li Manni, leaning on his shoulder, suddenly lifted her head, and then she tiptoed, pursed her lips slightly, and pressed them to Yang Hao’s lips.

Li Manni clearly had no experience in this area, and after pressing her lips to his, she didn’t know what to do next.

Yang Hao was startled by Li Manni’s sudden move; he thought his niece-by-marriage was just going to hug him, but didn’t expect her to actually engage her lips!

Though surprised, Yang Hao, an experienced ‘old driver’, naturally didn’t mind guiding Li Manni, the novice, with the business at hand.

Under Yang Hao’s guidance, Li Manni, a quick study, gradually grasped the essentials and began to use them skillfully.

Um~

“Brother-in-law!”

“Stop!!”

Minutes later, Li Manni forcefully pushed Yang Hao away.

Her cheeks flushed, she leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

Kissing had been within Li Manni’s expectations.

But, she wasn’t ready for what came next.

However, Yang Hao’s hand had been very aggressive, moving from top to bottom, and he accidentally touched a place that made Li Manni feel ashamed.

“Uh…”

“Cough cough…”

Yang Hao coughed awkwardly. Actually, he had not done it on purpose; it was just habit.

When a kiss became passionate, he was used to proceeding to the next step, one must know that Yang Hao had the skill of the “Shadowless Finger.”

“`

Wang Xueru, Wang Jingru and the other women such as Yibao and Meng Chacha were all highly adored by him.

That’s why Yang Hao unconsciously started using his Shadowless Finger skill, only he overlooked that today’s subject was Li Manni.

For his young aunt, even kissing was a first-time experience, and such an act was too much for her to handle.

He would need to take things slowly and gradually.

“By the way, what would you like to eat?”

“I’ve acquired another catering company on this trip to Hucheng, it’s the parent company of Hushang Family.”

“How about it, do you want to go and give it a try?”

Yang Hao’s face was thick enough, seeing that Li Manni was still quite awkward, he bluntly shifted the topic.

“Sure.”

“I saw the news about it online.”

“I just recorded a video about this event too!”

“I really do want to try out and see if Hushang Family is as good as people say.”

Li Manni slightly adjusted her disheveled clothes, and then tried to keep her tone as calm as possible.

However, she was, after all, not so thick-skinned and dared not look into Yang Hao’s eyes while speaking.

Ding!

Congratulations, host!

Your progress in conquering the big boss has increased to 80%!

System reward: One Advanced Industry Card!!

Just then.

The System’s voice suddenly rang in Yang Hao’s mind.

Dammit!

It’s an Advanced Industry Card!!

Recently, the System had been activating less frequently than before, and naturally, the rewards were fewer.

Of course, Yang Hao was still very satisfied with the current situation.

He was someone who easily felt content.

Without the System, what hardship hadn’t he endured!

Was the bitterness of delivering food for over ten hours a day worse than now?

Compared to that, rewards seemed trivial, and even if the System disappeared now, he would still be worth nearly twenty billion.

What wasn’t there to be content about!

However, while Yang Hao had a good attitude, the reward of the Advanced Industry Card still made him incredibly excited!

This was his first time receiving an Advanced Industry Card.

You see, according to the System’s settings,

the Advanced Industry Card corresponds to an industry scale of 100 billion to 1000 billion!

Yang Hao’s total assets summed up to less than twenty billion, which means this single Advanced Industry Card could potentially double his net worth, or even increase it several times over!

Therefore, Yang Hao was naturally very thrilled.

“Brother-in-law, what’s wrong with you?”

Yang Hao’s sudden display of excitement puzzled Li Manni, and she couldn’t help but ask.

“It’s nothing, I’m just feeling a bit sentimental!”

“Actually, I’ve always liked you quite a bit, but due to the nature of our relationship, I could only bury these feelings deep in my heart!”

“I never thought that one day, you would be the one to pierce through this paper window.”

“Just thinking about it makes me so happy.”

Although what Yang Hao said wasn’t entirely false, a lot of it was to explain why he suddenly became so excited.

“Oh, I see, that’s why!”

Li Manni nodded, her face blushing, clearly touched by Yang Hao’s words.

After all, what woman doesn’t like to hear such words? Li Manni was no different.

She was somewhat moved by Yang Hao’s seemingly sincere words. At the same time, she felt that Yang Hao’s speech sounded more like a veiled confession.

So, in response to a confession, naturally, she felt the need to reply.

Feeling joyous, Li Manni took the initiative to wrap her arms around Yang Hao’s neck and kissed his cheek.

“Brother-in-law, let’s be good together then!”

Her lips departed from Yang Hao’s cheek, and Li Manni blinked her beautiful, sparkling eyes.
