Chapter 97: Deliberately Rear-Ended

How could that be!

Afterwards, Zhu Luo told Zhu Luo the meeting place, and the two again agreed on an evening meeting time, after which they said goodbye and parted.

After Xiao Yunzhe left, Zhu Luo's companion walked over.

"Hennessy poison, still the latest model, worth over ten million; his attire is very ordinary, yet he wears a world-sales version famous watch; his total net worth, compared to yours, is surprisingly not inferior."

What do you think of this person?

Zhu Luo replied, "I noticed this from the start."

"In An Jin, who among the prominent people don't we know? But Xiao Yunzhe, I've never even heard of him; hearing his accent, he's definitely from An Jin, this sudden appearance can only mean he's a..."

Nouveau riche!

The person who came with Zhu Luo said in unison.

"Looks okay for now, let's learn more before deciding." Zhu Luo and his friend exchanged a glance, and the corners of their mouths curled up with a meaningful smile.

If we get along well, you'll soon be able to switch to a new sports car.

Zhu Luo's friend gave him a thumbs up and said, "Putting it that way, your rear-end collision this time wasn't bad."

I deliberately rear-ended.

Nine o'clock in the evening.

Xiao Ming was practicing calligraphy in the study.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jingrou thoughtfully ground ink beside Xiao Ming, while Xiao Yuchun found it boring and went back to her room alone.

Xiao Ming's calligraphy is fairly good.

Since his rebirth, he has paid attention to cultivating his temperament, reading famous books, viewing famous paintings, practicing calligraphy, playing chess and so on; sometimes he has had exposure in every field.

His talent for writing is not bad, perhaps related to his personality; his strokes are strong, his script has spirit.

To speak immodestly, his calligraphy can even be compared to that of famous calligraphy masters.

"Dad, that's enough." Xiao Jingrou, having ground the ink, looked at Xiao Ming with eager eyes, really wanting to see what characters her father would write.

Xiao Ming nodded, went to the desk, laid out the paper, picked up the brush and began to write.

His strokes were strong, completed in one breath!

Good heavens!

Upon seeing Xiao Ming's characters, Xiao Jingrou exclaimed in surprise.

She is usually gentle and steady, not prone to losing composure, but seeing Xiao Ming's characters truly shocked her; her gaze toward him was full of admiration.

Dad, you're also awesome, right?

Xiao Jingrou lavished praise while her eyes shone as she looked at Xiao Ming's writing.

"Family happiness!" Xiao Ming wrote these characters, which also reflect his current life.

After having several children, isn't his life just family happiness?

Seeing Xiao Jingrou eager to move, he smiled gently and waved to his little daughter: "Jingrou, come, Dad will teach you how to practice calligraphy!"

Okay! Xiao Jingrou happily agreed and walked to the desk.

During that time, Xiao Yuchun came to the study once, saw Xiao Ming calling Xiao Jingrou to practice writing; Xiao Ming merely called her name, and she hurriedly left.

Dad, I'm a bit sleepy, I'll go back to my room to get some more sleep.

Seeing her little fleeing figure, Xiao Ming was both amused and exasperated for a moment.

Xiao Yuchun is relatively lively, always doing things in a hustle; making her sit quietly to practice writing is indeed a torment for her.

In contrast, Xiao Jingrou can keep a calm mind, which is quite suitable for practicing calligraphy.

At this moment, she sits quietly, earnestly practicing as Xiao Ming taught, and her writing is also quite good.

It seems that if this girl is properly nurtured, she will surely achieve something in the future.

"Jingrou, I think you still have quite a talent for this." After watching Xiao Jingrou practice writing for a while, Xiao Ming praised her sincerely.

Hehe!

Suddenly praised by her father, Xiao Jingrou's heart blossomed with joy, her smile breaking into a sweet grin.

Dad, should we give my brother a call to see how he's doing?" Xiao Jingrou asked.

Xiao Ming, however, said: "No need."

Xiao Yunzhe hasn't called back, which shows nothing's wrong.

As a father, how could he not worry about his son? But he too was once young; such a grown‑child has a stubborn streak, wanting to venture out on his own, not liking parents constantly watching over him, leaving him no personal space.

Xiao Yunzhe himself is about to become a father; he can't always rely on his father's protection.

He must let go and allow Xiao Yunzhe to venture out on his own.

Xiao Ming gave his little daughter a reassuring smile, saying: "Don't worry; if things can't be settled, he'll call back himself."

If you're tired, just go rest; practicing calligraphy must be done gradually.

Dad, tomorrow I have to go with Lingyu sister to attend a fashion show; I'll go back to my room to rest first!" After putting down the brush, Xiao Jingrou said gently.

Okay, go rest!" Xiao Ming nodded.

Xiao Jingrou had just returned to her room when Xiao Yuchun came running out happily.

Xiao Ming was both amused and exasperated; this little thing is really adorable.

It looks like she's been keeping an eye on the study all along.

Yuchun, what are your plans for tomorrow?" Xiao Ming asked, indulgent yet helpless.

After Xiao Yuchun cutely thought for a moment, she happily snuggled up to Xiao Ming, linked her arm with his, leaned into his embrace, and coquettishly said: "Dad, I want to ride the Ferris wheel, I want to play on the carousel……"

Want to play those!

Xiao Ming felt a bit helpless; he initially wanted to refuse instinctively, but then thought: when Wen Zihan was bringing up several kids, life had already been hard; the kids had lost their mother early, and before meeting him they had led rather miserable lives, so they must have never gone to an amusement park.

Thinking this, Xiao Ming swallowed the words he was about to say; how could he bear to refuse the child.

Okay, Dad will take you tomorrow.

Wow, Dad, you're also great, Dad I love you. Xiao Yuchun heard it, happily jumped up like a playful rabbit.

The next day.

Xiao Jingrou got up very early; by the time Xiao Ming and the others woke up, she had already left the house and gone to attend a fashion show with Xie Lingyu.

At breakfast, Xiao Ming saw little Xiao Yunzhe eating extremely quickly, as if he were in a hurry.

"How did the rear-end incident turn out?" Xiao Ming asked casually.

"Dad, don't worry, it's already taken care of." Xiao Yunzhe replied in a good mood.

"Dad, let me tell you, I've made a new friend—it's that young master who rear-ended my car yesterday." Xiao Yunzhe said while eating, happily: "At first I thought the other party might be a spoiled rich kid like Wen Dongyu, getting involved with troublemakers, which would have been a hassle."
