Chapter 53: Who Is Really Your Biological Relative?
Everyone walked from the main house to the entertainment villa, arts, and fitness buildings; each floor was filled with antique paintings and famous works, and everywhere exuded an aura of wealth.
"Mr. Xiao, this place is too luxurious." The more Geng Tianhua saw, the more shocked he became; at this moment he could no longer express his inner feelings with mere excitement.
Geng Jing Shu, still shocked, unconsciously stroked her own lower abdomen.
If she weren't carrying this child and had witnessed Xiao Ming's nearly terrifying wealth, she would never have dared to dream of marrying into the Xiao family and becoming a lady of a rich household.
But now, she is carrying the Xiao family's child.
Moreover, her in-laws treat her very well, putting on no airs of wealth at all.
Thinking about her future life, Geng Jing Shu grew more and more excited.
Sun Xuehua, thinking of her daughter about to marry into such a wealthy family, felt her emotions surge; while walking, she unconsciously reached out to steady Geng Jing Shu, as if afraid the latter might accidentally come to harm.
You should know that once the baby in her belly is born, the ties between the Geng and Xiao families will be firmly secured.
What awaits them will be beautiful days.
After the tour, Xiao Ming led everyone to the main house, and the group sat down.
Everyone saw the living room, which was like a small square, and then looked at the various high-end furnishings inside, feeling dazed and overwhelmed.
The servants brought everyone various teas, juices, and so on.
Seeing that even the cups were crystal clear and obviously valuable, everyone felt even more dazed.
Xiao Ming gave a light smile, patted the shoulders of Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun, and said, "Jingrou, Yuchun, from now on this is your home; relax, do as you please, don't stand on ceremony."
"Father," Wen Yuchun gave Xiao Ming a helpless glance and muttered softly, "Father, I still need some time to digest this; mainly, the shock you've brought us is too great for my little heart to bear."
"Hehe."
Wen Yuchun's words amused everyone, and the tense atmosphere eased.
After chatting a while about everyday matters, seeing that it was late, Xiao Ming summoned the head steward: "We've been busy all day and everyone is tired; take them to pick rooms so they can rest early."
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao; we'll impose on you tonight," Geng Tianhua said politely.
"No need to be polite, in-laws; we're one family now," Xiao Ming replied amiably.
"Yun Zhe, take good care of Jing Shu; she is our family's key protected person, our meritorious servant—if you neglect her, I'll be the first to deal with you." Xiao Ming said, feigning ferocity toward Wen Yunzhe.
"Dad, I understand." Wen Yunzhe hurried forward to support Geng Jing Shu, saying, "I've been good to Jing Shu; you protect her so much—who exactly is your biological child?"
Geng Jing Shu felt delighted inside, her face full of happiness as she said to Xiao Ming, "Dad, rest assured; Yunzhe may be a bit careless, but over the years he has always treated me especially well, never letting me suffer injustice."
"Good, as long as he treats you well." Xiao Ming was in high spirits.
"You're pregnant now; you should go rest early; if you need anything, just tell the servants."
"Dad, I'm worried I'll have insomnia; you're so rich that even now my mind is still foggy."
"Get lost, get lost." Xiao Ming laughed and cried, waving his hand, telling Wen Yunzhe to hurry away.
Seeing that Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun had no intention to move, Xiao Ming looked at them as he usually did.
"Dad, my sister and I want to stay in the rooms beside your bedroom," Wen Yuchun said coquettishly.
"Sure." Xiao Ming naturally wouldn't refuse the requests of his two precious daughters.
He immediately had the steward make arrangements, placing the two sisters in the rooms to the left and right of his bedroom.
"Dad, from now on will our whole family live here?"
Wen Jingrou, while surveying this luxurious villa, asked cautiously, and even now she still felt that all of this seemed utterly unreal.
It was too shocking.
"Hehe, that's natural; my child, of course you should live at home." Xiao Ming replied indulgently.
"At first, I was afraid that if I told you everything at once, I'd frighten you, so I gradually let you know what kind of family we are; as for Qilin Yuan over there, if you three like it, we can occasionally stay there when we have free time."
"Mm-hmm." Wen Jingrou nodded obediently.
Actually, compared to this place, Wen Jingrou prefers the villa at Qilin Yuan; this place is too huge, palace-sized, and living here feels too pressured.
"Jingrou, why would you go back to Qilin Yuan? Living in such a big house, you can vacation without leaving home—isn't that great?" Wen Yuchun, meanwhile, quickly adapted; this place is so luxurious and beautiful, simply wonderful.
She felt she was about to be overwhelmed by happiness.
"Dad, you're super imposing."
She actually, in such a short time, went from a poor girl who couldn't even afford rent to a wealthy family's young lady; from now on she no longer needs to worry about money, toil at hard work, or suffer injustice.
Being pampered by such a wealthy father is simply too happy.
Soon, everyone had picked their favorite rooms, having digested half of the fact that Xiao Ming was fabulously wealthy, and each went off to rest.
Xiao Ming then went to the wine cellar; as he emerged with a bottle of red wine worth over a million, he saw Wen Yuchun sitting on the living-room sofa, laughing into her phone.
"Yuchun, who are you talking to?" Xiao Ming asked casually.
"Dad, I'm on a video call with Xiao Xiao," Wen Yuchun said while chatting with her good friend, her face beaming as she took in the huge house.
Today really was too shocking.
Her biological father being this wealthy was something she never dared to imagine before.
She immediately shared the news with her close friend.
"Good heavens, Yuchun, you've hit the jackpot in life; tomorrow I have nothing to do, I must go to your place to hang out."
On the other end of the video call, Lin Xiao Xiao exclaimed in surprise.
"Dad, I just told Xiao Xiao about your super wealth," Wen Yuchun and Lin Xiao Xiao were speaking when she suddenly put down her phone, jumped up from the sofa, and asked, "Dad, Xiao Xiao says that in this day and age, a family that doesn't have two airplanes isn't even qualified to be called wealthy."
"Then, Dad, does our family have any airplanes?" Wen Yun Chun asked cautiously; she was truly afraid that in the next second Xiao Ming would rustle up an airplane for her, which would surely scare the three siblings out of their wits.
"Airplanes? We don't have any."
Xiao Ming replied.
"Mm-hmm." Wen Yuchun patted her chest.
