"Back to...room~"
Xu Zhe found a crack and murmured.
"No one dared to look."
Fueled by alcohol, Xu Zhe boldly climbed onto Xu Zhengxi's shoulder...
...(The versatile ellipsis!)
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when Liang Shile was waiting for her in the front hall.
Xu Zhe was woken up by Aunt Lin. As soon as he got up, he immediately put on long sleeves and trousers, covering himself up completely.
"What time did the young master leave?" she asked Aunt Lin.
Aunt Lin: "Eight o'clock in the morning."
Xu Zhe calculated the time and realized that this person had slept for less than two hours before going out to work.
Even cows aren't this diligent...
When Liang Shile saw Xu Zhe, he covered his neck and ankles and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Is Xu Zhengxi born in the Year of the Dog? She's so vicious, she'll leave no healthy flesh on anyone."
Liang Shile is very easygoing.
Xu Zhe blushed at these words and secretly glanced at Aunt Lin next to him.
Aunt Lin's mouth was actually stretched even wider than Liang Shile's.
Xu Zhe: "......"
"Let's get down to business, Zhe~" Liang Shi stopped laughing.
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhe straightened his back, signaling her to continue.
"I brought you a new product, an aged wine from a French winery."
"Have some dry red wine; strong liquor is bad for your health."
As they were talking, Butler Zhou and his servants brought in cases of red wine.
Xu Zhe: "......"
"Is this the important matter you mentioned?"
Liang Shi laughed heartily: "Otherwise what?"
I can't exactly tell her about Hsu Chin-Han competing in an international friendly match, can I?
Those who have only met Xu Zhengxi cannot withstand such an impact.
Even she took a while to recover...
Xu Zhe accepted the wine and thanked him, but thought that these aged wines should continue to be stored in the cellar.
Xu Zhengxi is back; she no longer needs to drink to help her sleep.
After Liang Shile left, she resumed her previous habits.
She read online novels of different genres and sent many WeChat messages to Xu Zhengxi.
Unlike before, she received very few replies.
He just got back from Beidu, he must have a ton of official business to attend to.
That's what Xu Zhe thought.
Until late at night, there was no sign of him, nor any reply.
Xu Zhe walked towards the wine cellar and opened Liang Shile's aged wine.
The Xu family's old house was still brightly lit late at night.
Xu Zhengxi's nanny van was parked at the entrance of the mansion, with Si Kangzhu waiting in the passenger seat.
In the main hall of the old house, Xu Zhengxi sat in the host's seat.
On the sofas on either side, Xu Shixin and his son Xu Jinheng sat upright.
Servants and family members were all evacuated.
Ye Juan glanced around the hall and was immediately chased away by Xu Shixin's scolding.
At this moment, the three of them remained silent, and the atmosphere in the hall was somber and oppressive.
Xu Zhengxi's gaze was cold and aloof, exuding an imposing aura even without anger.
Xu Shixin knew he was in the wrong, but dared not voice his grievances against his eldest son who was seated above him.
Xu Jinheng placed his hands on his knees, his knuckles arched, unconsciously gripping them tightly.
Overnight, news of his sister spread throughout the upper echelons of Lingnan society.
Xu Jinhan has not been able to go home yet, and her elder brother has returned from Beidu ahead of schedule.
The seriousness of the matter is self-evident.
"Zhengxi, Jinhan is a result of her mother's poor discipline. She should be dealt with accordingly!"
Xu Shixin finally spoke first.
They should directly acknowledge Xu Jinhan's problems, handle them according to the law, and sever ties with her as a daughter.
His two sons are in politics and business, respectively. The Xu family is deeply rooted and its position in Lingnan remains unshakable.
Xu Zhengxi's face was frosty, his eyes were dark and deep, and he remained silent.
Xu Shixin frowned upon seeing this.
Logically speaking, by not protecting his daughter and not helping her evade legal punishment, he had already completely absolved the Xu family of any responsibility.
Why does the eldest son still look like this?
Does this mean we should all be held accountable and have him, the father, punished as well?
Even the law doesn't stipulate that!
