Author's words: This chapter is recommended to be paired with a song (Mao Buyi - Give It to You and Give It to Me), for all the dear kids who support Luo Bao!
I hope we’ll meet again in the next book! ———
As Xiang Xu grew up, he became more and more naughty. Xiang Baiwei and Jiang Sui both taught him patiently. Xiang Baiwei had a more irritable temper and was a strict mother, while Jiang Sui was a kind father.
Although Jiang Sui sometimes feels that Xiang Xu is really like himself when he was young, stubborn and obstinate.
He is a good kid, but also a very frustrating naughty kid who always enjoys doing things that challenge his bottom line and limits.
But if you think about it carefully, it can be quite cute sometimes.
Especially after Xiang Xu got into trouble, he would look at Jiang Sui with pitiful eyes: "Dad..."
This kind of cute and coquettish behavior does not require much force, but it seems particularly effective.
Jiang Sui always couldn't help laughing, patting his furry head, and then said, "You little bastard, wait until your mother comes back to deal with you."
Jiang Sui has said this countless times.
However, every time Xiang Xu showed this expression, Jiang Sui would immediately surrender, and no matter how angry he was, he would not bear to scold him.
Of course, Xiang Baiwei also loved her son very much. Every time she saw Xiang Xu, her heart became as soft as water.
Unless he got into trouble again, she would become strict and teach Xiang Xu a lesson with a serious face.
Xiang Xu was used to being scolded, and every time he would lower his head and admit his mistakes without saying a word.
This way, Xiang Baiwei couldn't be cruel to him.
Although the couple doted on Xiang Xu, Jiang Sui learned sketching to commemorate his child from his previous life. He drew a portrait of the child, framed it at home, and told Xiang Xu that this was his destined brother.
Xiang Xu was very sensible and didn't ask too many questions.
For this reason, the couple once felt that Xiang Xu should be more mature and stable than they thought.
In fact, after Xiang Xu entered elementary school, he started getting into trouble one after another. Jiang Sui and Xiang Baiwei had to take turns to deal with him. Their lives were in chaos, and their parents were called to school every few days. In the end, the couple started playing rock-paper-scissors to decide who would go to school to be punished by the teacher.
Similarly, the two began to worry about what to do with this huge family business in the future. After all, Xiang Xu seemed very unreliable, and the couple was once very desperate.
But to their surprise, this naughty child suddenly became sensible after entering junior high school. He studied hard and had a unique talent in finance. He learned financial investment since he was a child. Under the guidance of Xiang Baiwei, he already had his own industry when he took the college entrance examination, which was the food delivery industry. He first took the lead in doing it, then promoted it on campus, and also made an app. By the time he graduated, he had already occupied the market in most cities.
Xiang Xu's steady and cautious attitude, his ability to identify opportunities and his unique vision really combine the strengths of Xiang Baiwei and Jiang Sui without their weaknesses.
Just like that, the monkey who was naughty and fighting when he was a child gradually became a business genius wearing gold-rimmed glasses after graduating from university.
Even when faced with the great-grandfather of "Jenny" who outlasted his third wife and had a "super long standby" life, this child was like a little fox and turned the tables.
Occasionally, when she went to see him, Xiang Baiwei would wonder why she and her honest husband gave birth to such a son?
It was not until she attended a reunion with old classmates, a reunion that could be considered the "best occasion for cheating", that Jiang Sui came to pick her up and the little green tea girl was at it again. On the way back, after thinking about it, Xiang Baiwei suddenly realized that her son's cunning and black-bellied nature was inherited from her husband.
So…
Did Xiang Xu's personality actually inherit Jiang Sui's genes?
"What's wrong?" Jiang Sui stopped and looked at Xiang Baiwei. Seeing that she was frowning, he reached out and gently rubbed her eyebrows.
Xiang Baiwei shook her head. "It's okay. I just feel that our Xiang Xu is too good. I am almost surpassed by him. In the past few years, have you felt that he is getting smarter and smarter, just like a fox?"
Jiang Sui laughed: "Doesn't this just prove that your son is smart? Why? Are you unhappy?"
Jiang Sui hugged her waist tightly, kissed her forehead gently, and said softly: "Don't worry, Xiang Xu's wisdom is innate, and he is more stable than we thought, so all this is arranged by fate, I believe he can go well."
"Well, I hope so. I also hope that I can retire soon and enjoy my current life."
Jiang Sui smiled and said, "Okay, I'll travel around the world with you and go to places you like. Wherever you want to go, I'll accompany you."
Xiang Baiwei's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she looked up at Jiang Sui, "Really? Are you willing to give up your precious students now?"
"Of course, accompanying you is the most important thing."
"Thank you, Jiang Sui."
"I should thank you. Let's go home."
"Um."
On the way back, they happened to meet a fellow villager who was also from the village. He was now a boss and a foreman on the construction site. During the chat, he told them about Liu Mei and Xiang Shunqiang.
It turned out that they had been entangled with each other again since someone had no idea when. It was said that Xiang Shunqiang had worked on this man's construction site for a few days, but he couldn't stand the hardship and left.
The man also mentioned that Xiang Shunqiang had been in jail a few years ago because he stabbed someone who had an affair with Liu Mei.
Both of them are not doing well now.
When Xiang Baiwei heard this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. If Liu Mei hadn't had such evil intentions to plot against her from the very beginning, with her intelligence, she might have been able to live a stable life. What a pity. Everything was her own fault.
However, Xiang Baiwei and Jiang Sui didn't care about it, so they didn't pay attention to the follow-up.
One day many years later.
The two of them sat on the balcony, leaning on each other, watching the rising sun outside, and a new day began.
"Weiwei, I remember the first time I saw you in Xiangjia Village, you were wearing a red dress, standing under the treetops, smiling so sweetly. I admit that from that moment on, my heart was moved."
When Xiang Baiwei thought of the first time they met, her heart seemed to stop for a moment.
She raised her hand and held Jiang Sui's hand, "Jiang Sui."
"Hmm?" Jiang Sui lowered his head and stared into her eyes.
Xiang Baiwei gently stroked his white hair and said softly, "In this life, being able to meet you is the blessing I have cultivated for several lifetimes."
Her tone was gentle, but every word touched people's hearts.
Jiang Sui was stunned for a long time, and suddenly hugged her, "Weiwei, I will spend my whole life protecting you."
The two people talked in low voices, and as they talked, Xiang Bai Wei stopped talking.
Jiang Sui turned his head and saw his wife sleeping on his shoulder.
He kissed it gently, then looked at the rising sun and smiled.
I will try my best to be happy all my life.
