Father & Son

Chapter 165
The two buffoons left, and the room fell silent again. Cheng Hai looked at him, "Do you want to see the manor?"
"Can you walk all day?"
"A slow walk should last forever."
"Go over there and talk about what's in the manor." Li Xiao nodded.
They walk slowly into the garden at the entrance. There were several chairs in the garden, the model flowering shrubs were looked leisurely and elegant, and the center was a fountain.
"The manor is divided into several areas. In front of the entrance is the garden, which is suitable for afternoon tea. In the back of the manor, there is a garden on the right and a hot spring on the left. It is not open-air, but there is a skylight. It's getting colder, you can go to the bubble, there are separate baths and shared baths."
"Are there any supermarkets nearby?"
"Yes, drive a car. There are a few shopping streets in fifteen minutes, and a few department stores and hospitals."
"Well, I'll go out for a walk in two days. I want to buy some things. I want to eat three meals myself."
"It's okay. Let the kitchen worker learn from you for a month and remember what you like to eat."
"Trouble..."
"Don't you worry about sleepiness when you're pregnant?"
"Not yet." Li Xiao said.
"...we'll talk about that then."
"Well, we'll talk about that then."

Li Xiao tightened his lips and frowned upon hearing the words. "Madam still remember what happened when I went to your house for dinner...?"
"Ah Qing drugged you?"
"Yes... When I woke up, he called to tell me that he and Cheng Mu were infertile, and he didn't want Mr. Cheng Hai to have another wife, so he simply drugged me and asked me to give up on Cheng Mu and help the Cheng family by the way, because he didn't want anyone else to give birth to your son."
"What!?" Ning Xue widened her eyes in disbelief, but when she saw that Li Xiao had something to say, she was silent.
"Your daughter-in-law said that he would ask me to have a baby with your son without any compromise. How can I, Li Xiao, be virtuous? I'm just a commoner, and I can't get rid of the means of the upper class. I'm not willing to accept that I'll be crushed to death like an ant."
"So you just..."
"No, it's my revenge." Li Xiao suddenly gave a faint smile.
"Revenge?"
"Is there not something in the mind of a barren man to raise a child that is not his own? What's more, your daughter-in-law's heart is so small."
"..."
"Don't you think so, madam?"
"You... you are not afraid that I think you're small-minded?" Ning Xue's face cooled down, her expression was too unfathomable, making people unable to see the true thoughts, but it made people feel pressure.
"Afraid of what? The child was born to me. No matter how strong your Cheng family is, as long as tell the truth about your daughter-in-law’s affairs, the child shall be mine alone. Of course, if your daughter-in-law treats my child coldly, neither will I rest easily."
"Star Alliance's hand is so fast?"
[Boss, do you not know that you are the golden nobleman of all the Kohl Star who would most like to be married to?]
"I don't know. What about the groups that backing You Liqing now?"
[Oh! Boss, this has to be said, this matter is the lightest matter that I deal with!] Yu Zhen laughed loudly, with a sense of gloat in his smile.
"What is it?"
[Boss, you are now the general manager of Star Alliance who has the power to make decisions! Those chief executives are too insightful. They all will show signs of changing course when they see that your potential stocks are bigger than those of those old companies!]
Cheng Hai was stunned for a while when he heard the words, the corners of his mouth slowly rose uncontrollably. "In that case, I will let your brother take back several projects in a few days, so that they can also share a piece of the pie."
[Roger that! Boss, you can take care of others with peace of mind and work hard for the face of your son. Everything will make it perfect!]
When Li Xiao walked into the kitchen with a yawn, he was stunned when he saw the two standing in the kitchen. Some were startled, and then he was a little stupid and stunned as he suspected that he was looking wrong. Cheng Hai could see his dumbfounded expression. "Wake up? You can eat early. Today's breakfast is porridge and some appetizer!"
There was a hint of pampering in his tone, Ning Xue raised her eyebrows strangely when she heard it.
"Oh..." Li Xiao nodded stupidly. Ning Xue turned around and saw it, and was immediately happy.
"Silly boy, what are you doing standing there? Hurry to the table and sit down."
Cheng Hai felt happy too. "Mom, go and sit there too, I'll just take care of it."
"Okay~ let's go!" Ning Xue smiled and took Li Xiao to the dining table.
Li Xiao looked at the hands that held stupidly. He could see that the hands were wrinkled, and he was already old enough that he hadn't let his elders take such a caring to eat together at the dining table.
This breakfast was the most enjoyable time Li Xiao ever had. Ning Xue was a very funny and playful big child. She talked with Li Xiao in a light manner. She scooped dishes for Li Xiao from time to time and made Li Xiao eat more rice than usual.
