Yang Qiaoqiao quickly stopped her, "Grandma Xia, don't be in such a hurry. Since Grandpa asked Aunt Zhang to come and take care of you, he must have his own plans."

"If you rush back now, it might disrupt Grandpa's plans."

Huo Beixiao also said, "Grandma Xia, you don't need to worry about Grandpa's safety. I'll have the people who protect An'an and Lele go back with Master Li to protect Grandpa Xia."

Aunt Zhang also said, "Madam, please don't worry. Before I came here, the old gentleman said that he would come to find you after he settled things over there."

After hearing this, Grandma Xia nodded and calmed down.

The old man has always been shrewd. He had already suffered a loss at the hands of that brat Xia Zicheng once before, and he certainly wouldn't make the same mistake a second time.

Thinking this way, she felt much more at ease.

At this time, the Xia family's old villa.

While Xia Zicheng was still asleep, Xia Yuntao finished getting ready and left.

Before long, he arrived at the old villa where Huo Beixiao and the others were now living.

Seeing him arrive, Grandma Xia quickly came out to greet him, "Old man, what made that little rascal decide to come back?"

Xia Yuntao sighed, took his wife's hand and said, "It's cold outside, let's go back inside first."

“The little brat must have come back for the money.” Xia Yuntao said as soon as he sat down after returning to the house.

"Did he ask you for money?" Grandma Xia asked.

Xia Yuntao shook his head. "He's been pampered all his life. He couldn't even handle the 30-plus hour flight back home. He went straight to sleep as soon as he got inside."

But as soon as he came in, his eyes darted around, probably looking for anything valuable in our house.

Upon hearing this, Grandma Xia frowned, her face showing obvious worry.

Xia Yuntao knew what his wife was worried about, so he squeezed her hand and said, "Don't worry, I put everything away in the house before I came. Even if he wakes up and searches the house again, he won't find anything."

Grandma Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

Her room was filled with antique jewelry, all of which were her favorites. If Xia Zicheng found them, he probably wouldn't be able to keep a single piece.

"Old man, if we can't find a good one among our unfilial sons, then we'll donate all our things. We can't leave them to a scourge," Grandma Xia said firmly.

Xia Yuntao nodded; he thought so too.

“Shuyi, this is what I’m thinking…” Xia Yuntao told Wang Shuyi his thoughts.

Wang Shuyi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, that's a good idea. Now that Xia Zicheng is back, the other unfilial sons should hear the news and come back soon too."

If none of them pass the test, then let's pretend they were never born!

Xia Yuntao thought so too.

Even if only one of the descendants passes the test, the family property inherited from their ancestors and what they have earned over the years can be passed down.

But if he has none, he plans to entrust his family property to Huo Beixiao and Yang Qiaoqiao. If they are unwilling to take it over, he will consider donating it to the country free of charge.

Xia Yuntao gently patted Wang Shuyi's hand, his eyes filled with remorse, and said, "Shuyi, I'm sorry. It's the father's fault for not raising children properly. I'm sorry, it's my fault for not raising them well."

Wang Shuyi frowned and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about! Raising a child isn't just the father's job. If you put it that way, then my responsibility as the mother is also huge."

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings; we have taught them everything we needed to.

We not only taught them, we even charted a straight path for them, but they still chose to go astray. Can you blame us? Even as parents, we can't control them forever.

Wang Shuyi was more insightful than Xia Yuntao.

Therefore, she no longer takes the responsibility for her descendants' bad behavior upon herself.

After the elderly couple discussed it, Xia Yuntao went to find Huo Beixiao.

For his plan to be implemented, he would need Huo Beixiao's help with some things.

After listening, Huo Beixiao nodded without hesitation, "Grandpa Xia, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this for you."

Moreover, he has experienced people ready to handle this matter.

After Huo Beixiao agreed, he called Guo Tao and asked him to immediately buy the next available flight to Haicheng.

When Xia Yuntao left home in his early years, he took a large sum of money with him.

Moreover, when Xia Yuntao was still abroad, the Xia family's business was doing quite well under his management.

Like most Chinese families who fled abroad during that era, the Xia family, despite not being able to join the upper class, had enough wealth to live a comfortable and even luxurious life.

Born into such a family, and being the youngest, Xia Zicheng was raised with even more pampering, a true pampered young master.

This was the first time in his life that a young master like him had experienced the hardships of a long and tiring journey.

After a long and tiring journey, coupled with jet lag, he slept for a full day and two nights after his head hit the pillow before waking up.

When he woke up, all he felt was a rumbling stomach.

Lying in bed, I started shouting, "Mary, Mary..."

He called out twice, but no one responded. Then he remembered that he was back in China, not in his villa in the United States.

There isn't a single maid named Mary here.

He had already observed the situation when he arrived and discovered that the only thing the old couple had was that wretched maid who had blocked his way and wouldn't let him in that day.

He wanted to ask her to bring him some food, but he realized he didn't know her name at all. He could only curse "shit" and get up to find something to eat himself.
