"Daddy, your sweetheart is calling! Answer the phone quickly, or she won't talk to you anymore... Daddy, your sweetheart is calling..."
When Di Xiu was awakened by the deafening noise, he looked at the "Baby" in his phone's contact name but couldn't remember who it was. Only after answering the call did he remember that he had a daughter.
As soon as the call connected, the person on the other end immediately started talking non-stop.
He sat up, rubbing his temples, and looked at the dimly lit sky outside the window for a while before realizing the existence of this amazing time difference.
I glanced at the clock on the wall again and calculated that it should still be midnight in Country D. Judging from the sound, the person on the other end of the phone had drunk quite a bit, but the background was quiet, so it didn't seem like a bar.
Xia Xueqing's voice was muffled, somewhat low and hoarse compared to usual, rising and falling with her emotions. She passionately denounced his cold-heartedness on the phone, accusing him of being corrupted by money and not understanding the sanctity of love. Then she cried about her deceased mother.
Di Xiu remained completely unmoved, simply hanging up the phone, fully demonstrating his ruthlessness. He then changed the ringtone to the default setting, opened the window, and let the cool morning breeze blow into the room.
From the first moment he saw her, he felt a dislike. As he got to know her better, his resentment grew, because she resembled the female immortal who had betrayed him so much, especially in personality. One of the reasons he sent her away was to avoid getting too close and having her stab him in the back.
Xia Xueqing estimated that it took quite a while before she realized the call had been disconnected. The second hand on the clock had gone around seven or eight times before the clear ringtone sounded again. The call was automatically disconnected a minute later, and then rang again.
001 was woken up from hibernation mode and grumbled, "It's so early in the morning, it's not even five o'clock yet, who's so rude as to disturb my peaceful sleep?"
He peeked out and scoffed, "Quite ambitious, taking a month to make a call."
Even if Di Xiu didn't respond, he could still mutter to himself.
"If you ask me, we should just stop giving her the card. Since she wants to marry for love, she naturally won't mind the hardships of life."
Besides, isn't it said that when people are well-fed and warm, they think of lustful desires? It's just that she has too much free time.
Di Xiu remained silent for a while, then nodded strangely before answering the phone. On the other end, his little darling, troubled by love, was still throwing a tantrum while drunk, but he silenced her as soon as he spoke.
"I can agree to you two being together."
Xia Xueqing's breath hitched.
She drank some red wine today, not much, just a small glass. She's currently in a state between being drunk and sober, which gives her the courage to throw a tantrum at her now distant and indifferent father, but also allows her to control her mouth.
Whether it was a side effect of drinking or a sudden, overwhelming surprise, she felt her throat was very dry, her whole body was hot, and she felt as if she were lying on a cloud.
Her heart pounded in her chest, and fireworks seemed to light up her vision. In an instant, she had already decided what kind of clothes she would wear for her wedding photos, how many children she would have after marriage, and what their names would be.
She licked her lips, filled with anticipation yet fearing it might be a hallucination from her drunkenness, and asked excitedly, her voice trembling, "Really? Daddy, you agree to us being together?"
001 complained, "Just now he was calling me a heartless and ruthless villain, a heartless man who abandoned his wife and daughter, but now he's sweetly calling me Daddy. This Daddy is really cheap."
Di Xiu ignored his words and said into the phone, "But there's a condition."
With only love in her eyes, Xia Xueqing immediately and without hesitation replied, "Daddy, you say it."
001: "Heh."
"For the next year, you must earn your own living. You can't borrow money from old friends, you can't take out loans, you must earn money through your own abilities..."
Hearing this, Xia Xueqing interrupted him in surprise: "Daddy, what are you saying?"
Di Xiu said calmly and coldly, "Money will corrupt your heart and pollute your sacred love."
He gave her a sarcastic remark, then said, "I've already made a will. When I die, my real estate will be donated to the state, and the rest will be donated to charity. If you want to be with him, you have to learn to live independently."
He rarely spoke at length, but the world always forced him to say a lot. He spoke to Xia Xueqing about the harsh reality that was cruel to her, his words slow and forceful, giving the impression that he was serious.
Xia Xueqing immediately panicked. Although she was used to spending money lavishly and didn't know hardship, she knew that without money, her current affluent life would be gone.
Her voice was no longer sweet, and due to distortion during audio transmission, it sounded somewhat sharp and shrill.
She was angry, incredulous, and panicked: "I am your daughter, those things should be mine, you can't do this."
Di Xiu chuckled lightly, not intending to argue with her about this point. He hung up the phone after saying his last words: "If you can do it, I will send someone to pick you up. Otherwise, you can only come back to attend his wedding with someone else."
"beep--"
"Daddy! Xia Hongfei! You bastard, is this how you promised Mommy you'd take care of me?"
001 seamlessly turned on the surveillance and didn't miss the moment when the spoiled princess had an emotional outburst. She couldn't help but click her tongue and say, "She's so angry that she's calling you by your full name. Oh, what a temper she has. She's smashing things again. There are so many diamonds on her phone. They must be worth hundreds of thousands. If things get tough, she could use them to exchange for some living expenses. What a spendthrift... Oh my god, Annie didn't do anything to her. Why is she hitting people? She's really spoiled."
Di Xiu went to wash his face and came back. Hearing what he said, he came over and took a look. He found the phone that was thrown on the bed and sent a message to Annie, the maid who was with Xia Xueqing.
