Chapter 41: Regarding the Son's Lifelong Matter

~7 min read 1,276 words

After leaving the villa, Xiao Ming went to the garage and drove out his Lincoln.

After seeing Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun into the car, Xie Lingyu looked expectantly at Xiao Ming.

"Lingyu, today, I trouble you." Xiao Ming said calmly.

Xie Lingyu naturally understood what he meant, suppressed her disappointment, and forced a smile: "No trouble, you go ahead. I'll head home first; call me if anything comes up."

As Xie Lingyu left, the disappointment in her eyes was clearly caught by Wen Yuchun: "Dad, you're too heartless."

From Xiao Ming's attitude toward Xie Lingyu today, Wen Yuchun understood their relationship.

To Xiao Ming, Xie Lingyu was just a companion; since she wasn't in his heart, that's why he never gave her a title all these years.

Given Xie Lingyu's intelligence, it's impossible for her not to understand this.

Yet she willingly stayed by Xiao Ming's side, loving him.

The power of love—his father is really impressive.

"Little girl, stop talking nonsense." Xiao Ming replied calmly.

He lit up his phone to check the time; it was already past five.

Just then, a man walked in from outside.

"Jingrou, Yuchun, this is our driver, Xiao Zhao. He's been with me since I started my business, and from now on, whenever you need to go out, just find Xiao Zhao." Xiao Ming instructed.

Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun nodded and politely greeted the driver, Xiao Zhao.

Afterward, Xiao Zhao drove, and the three of them set off for Mu Ye Restaurant.

……

Forty minutes later.

Xiao Ming's parents, the three members of Geng Tianhua's family, and Wen Yunzhe, who had come to pick them up, all arrived at about the same time.

"Yun Zhe, the place your father booked is actually Mu Ye Restaurant?" Upon arriving at the restaurant entrance, Geng Jing Shu saw it was Mu Ye Restaurant and was extremely surprised.

Her family lives in Yonghe District, and this Mu Ye Restaurant is one of the top high-end restaurants in Yonghe District.

Those who come here to eat are either rich or noble.

Wen Yunzhe's father actually booked such a high-end restaurant.

"My father booked it; it looks not bad." Wen Yunzhe replied.

"As future in-laws, you're being very thoughtful." Geng Tianhua, who had been to this restaurant before and knew how high-end it was, excitedly told his wife Sun Xuehua.

This Wen Yunzhe child—actually, he and his wife Sun Xuehua have always liked him; the reason they opposed his being with her was simply because Wen Yunzhe had no support, no money. They had originally planned to buy a place for the couple to help them out, never expecting Wen Yunzhe to lose so much money.

At this point, seeing that Wen Yunzhe's father had booked such a restaurant, it was clear their financial situation was decent, so they felt reassured about their daughter's future.

"However, if Yun Zhe could return to the Wen family, then this Mu Ye Restaurant wouldn't even be worth mentioning; we might even have a chance to dine at the Money Cabinet Club."

After weighing the pros and cons, Geng Tianhua still hoped that his son Wen Yunzhe could return to the Wen family.

The Money Cabinet Club he mentioned is the most upscale club in Anjin City; rumor has it that it was opened by a big business tycoon, though no one knows who.

The Money Cabinet Club is a place that combines entertainment venues and restaurants.

You can play and have fun there.

As Geng Tianhua entered Mu Ye Restaurant with his wife and daughter and reached the outside of the private room, both Wen Yunzhe and the Geng Tianhua family were dumbfounded.

Xiao Ming actually led his two daughters to wait outside the private room to greet the Geng Tianhua family.

"Uncle, Aunt, this is my father, Xiao Ming."

Wen Yunzhe came to his senses and hurriedly made introductions for Geng Tianhua.

"Dad, she is my future wife, Geng Jing Shu."

"They are Geng Jing Shu's parents."

"Mr. Xiao, pleased to meet you!"

"Future in-laws, hello!"

Xiao Ming quickly stepped forward, extended his hand, and shook hands with Geng Tianhua.

It's been years since he last used honorifics with anyone, let alone greeted someone.

However, for his son's lifelong matter, he had to lower his stance.

"Goodness, future in-laws, you're way too young!" Seeing Wen Yunzhe's father, who looked like a young man in his early twenties, Geng Tianhua was extremely surprised and couldn't help exclaiming.

"Thank you, future in-laws; I'm already over forty, not young." Xiao Ming replied politely, shifting his gaze to Wen Yunzhe's side, Geng Jing Shu.

"Jing Shu, you're truly handsome." Xiao Ming praised sincerely.

"I... thank you, Uncle, for the praise." Geng Jing Shu, being complimented, blushed instantly and shyly hid behind Wen Yunzhe.

"Uncle, Aunt, hello." Xiao Ming's side, Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun also stepped forward to greet Geng Jing Shu's parents.

"Sister-in-law, hello." The two sisters naturally didn't forget to greet their future sister-in-law, Geng Jing Shu.

As soon as the two sisters spoke, the entire Geng family's eyes lit up.

Shock!

Geng Tianhua had heard that Wen Yunzhe had two sisters, but had never seen them; seeing them now, he was instantly shocked.

These two young ladies bore the exact appearance of wealthy heiresses.

With delicate features, dressed in high-end gowns, and wearing expensive necklaces on their fair necks, they seemed like jade beauties stepped out of a painting.

"This Yun Zhe's family is just like natural-born nobility." Geng Tianhua thought to himself.

Before retiring, Geng Tianhua worked in public relations, dealing daily with high-society people; it was clear that the clothes and accessories worn by Wen Yunzhe's two sisters were extremely expensive.

"Future in-laws, let's go to the private room and talk more." Xiao Ming smiled and made a gesturing invitation.

Geng Tianhua nodded dumbly, followed Xiao Ming into the private room, and Geng Jing Shu and her mother Sun Xuehua were so shocked their minds turned into a mush.

From the moment they arrived outside the restaurant, the shocking events came one after another.

Upon seeing Wen Yunzhe's two sisters, Geng Jing Shu was immediately stunned by the two sisters' attire.

Eye‑catching!

Cherished Love and Only Dependence, those two sets of formal wear worn on Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun, made the two sisters look as if they had descended from heaven.

Yun Zhe, your sisters' outfits and accessories are all so beautiful, and they look very expensive.

"My dad gave them, they might be expensive," Wen Yunzhe replied nonchalantly.

Geng Jing Shu's heart surged unexpectedly, and a sense of anticipation suddenly arose in their heart.

"Maybe it's over ten thousand," Wen Yunzhe guessed; as a big man, he doesn't know much about clothing.

"Over ten thousand? What kind of international joke is that? It would at least be several hundred thousand, possibly up to millions." Geng Jing Shu also didn't really understand.

However, her job also frequently involves dealing with wealthy people; the outfits and accessories worn by Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun are far more high-end than those worn by the wealthy people she has seen.

Looking at it this way, after she marries Wen Yunzhe, she will be able to live a wealthy life.

Just thinking about it, she couldn't help but lift the corners of her mouth.

Upon entering the private room, Xiao Ming greeted the Geng Family and had them sit down; his first action was to take out an exquisite box and hand it to Geng Jing Shu: "Jing Shu, this is our first meeting; Uncle has prepared a greeting gift for you, hoping you will like it."
