Chapter 80
"Who would have thought it would let people find your dad, this big melon, on this vine, right?" Xiao Ming said with a helpless smile. Although he didn't want to be exposed, he didn't want his daughter to be sad.
This is just a small matter; the daughter's happiness is most important.
He said to himself in his heart.
"Alright, Yuchun, don't be upset; Dad doesn't blame you."
Xiao Ming An steadied Xiao Yuchun: "Today is indeed the big day of your three birthdays; naturally happiness comes first."
Afterwards, he pulled out one gift after another from behind him.
"Before, Dad lit birthday candles for you; now it's time to give gifts." Xiao Ming looked gently at the few children and said.
"Wow!"
The three siblings, upon seeing, instantly jumped up with joy; then each took their gift from Xiao Ming and eagerly tore them open.
"Thank you, Dad."
"Thank you, Dad."
The gift Xiao Ming gave Xiao Yuchun was an autographed photo of a popular male star; he happened to learn that his daughter also followed the star, so he had someone find that star and obtain the autographed photo.
"Wow, Dad, I really like this gift."
Xiao Yuchun looked at the autographed photo she had longed for in her hand, finally got it, happily hugged it and jumped around in place, turning two circles.
After hugging the autographed photo and kissing it, she rushed to Xiao Ming's front: "Dad, I love you."
Then she gave him a smacking kiss on the face.
"Dad, what is this?" Xiao Jingrou also opened her gift, looking at the string of keys inside, her face full of confusion.
"Jingrou, Dad knows what you like most is to be a fashion designer, so I had someone buy you an office building in the skyscraper next to Guoji Jinrong Dasha; then you started preparing your personal fashion design, opening a studio—if you need anything else, just tell Dad."
Xiao Ming looked fondly at his little daughter: "Dad will fully support you."
"Mm-hmm." Xiao Jingrou was moved to tears instantly, wiping her eyes as she walked toward Xiao Ming and flung herself into his arms.
Next up was Xiao Yunzhe.
Accustomed to being treated differently, he was still quite nervous, silently hoping this time his father would favor him.
When he finally opened the gift box, he kept his eyes shut for a moment before opening them; seeing what was inside, he was dumbfounded.
Afterwards, he jumped up from the sofa in excitement, shouting loudly.
Xiao Ming gave him a set of supercar keys.
McLaren.
This is a sports car he had liked for a long time; when he was buying a car earlier, he had wanted Xiao Ming to buy it for him, but…
"You don't like this kind of supercar? This is specially made for you." Xiao Ming said with a smile: "McLaren, the latest model, with many parts adjusted, better than the same model sold on the market—king of speed, performance and looks both present."
"Good heavens!" At that moment, Xiao Yunzhe felt he might faint from excitement; this was simply too delightful.
He too now owned a super-luxury sports car.
However, this was only the first gift; there was still a second.
"Impressive!" Seeing his son like that, Xiao Ming muttered disparagingly, then pulled another set of keys from his pocket and tossed them to Xiao Yunzhe.
"Seeing you work hard and your grades aren't bad." Xiao Ming said with a smile: "Now you know, Minghui Group is your father's company, and Liang Ting is your father's man, right?"
"He has mentioned before, saying you perform exceptionally at the company, your work even better than many veteran employees; this is your reward."
"Liang Ting has always been someone who helps based on reason, not favoritism; his praise of you isn't because of your status as the young master of the Xiao family, it shows you really did well."
Xiao Ming nodded satisfiedly and continued: "That car was a gift, this one is a reward—the Hennessey Venom, one of the top ten luxury supercars in the world."
"With these two cars, you can drive whichever you want, but you must pay attention to your safety."
"Dad, you're so overbearing, wuu wuu wuu, I'm moved to the point of almost tearing up—Dad I love you, Dad give me a hug." Xiao Yunzhe opened his arms, pouting, walked affectionately to Xiao Ming's front.
"Get lost." Xiao Ming kicked him disdainfully and said: "Remember, I've said it before—if you go out and race others, the consequences you can imagine; whatever you can't think of, I can do."
Xiao Ming's face changed instantly, and he gave a very stern instruction.
"Hehe, old man, rest assured, I will definitely listen to your words and never do such a thing."
Xiao Yunzhe's happy gaze fell on the two sets of keys, his smile extremely bright.
It's not easy; he also had a day of being pampered.
This time, he was finally not treated differently; this birthday was truly unforgettable.
"Dad, with rockets soaring to heaven here, are we going back to China?" Xiao Yuchun asked while admiring the autographed photo.
"We'll spend a few days playing in Frankelita; there are many famous sights there." Xiao Ming replied with a smile.
"Really? Wow!" Upon hearing they could go out to play, Xiao Yuchun exchanged a glance with her sister Xiao Jingrou, and they both laughed happily.
"Alright, I'll say goodbye to Louis in a bit, then we'll go and have a good time playing with you three for a few days." Xiao Ming said.
At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
It was Xie Lingyu calling.
He went out to the balcony to answer the call.
"Xiao Ming, I really miss you."
As soon as the call connected, Xie Lingyu's gentle voice came through.
"Mm." Xiao Ming replied indifferently, paused, then said: "I still need to stay abroad for about three to five days before returning; there's something I need you to handle."
"Okay." Xie Lingyu replied: "Got it, then I'll hang up."
After Xie Lingyu replied, she coldly uttered that one sentence, then said nothing more.
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, looked at his phone, hadn't hung up, and could faintly hear Xie Lingyu's breathing.
Xiao Ming raised his hand and pinched his brow.
During this time, he had only been thinking about accompanying the kids and being a good father, thus somewhat neglecting Xie Lingyu's feelings.
He then continued: "When I come back, I'll tell you—can you come to the airport to pick me up?"
"Sure, sure, I'll come pick you up." Xie Lingyu was silent for two seconds, then happily replied.
Just as before, their relationship had always been Xiao Ming in the dominant position; no matter how sad she was, as long as he gave her a candy, she could instantly turn sorrow into joy.
……
After Louis finished his business, Xiao Ming took several children and left the aerospace launch center together with Louis; after leaving the island, they found a Restaurant to celebrate the meal.
Xiao Ming was the biggest shareholder, and at this time he also demonstrated his astonishing financial ability.
