"But ppa, I'm your daughter, isn't it?" Xue Qi's expression became even more aggrieved, and she looked at me with some dissatisfaction, and said word by word.

Xue Qi's words made me stunned again. Xue Qi is right, in terms of name, Xue Qi and I do have a true father-daughter relationship, at least Xue Qi's teachers and classmates think so, in Xue Qi's concept, I am also her father, and she is my daughter.

And to say now that she is not my daughter is tantamount to hurting her.

For a while, I was actually asked by Xue Qi, and I didn't know how to answer.

"Dongdong, are you here, hurry up and open the door!"

While I was talking to Xue Qi like this, the knocks and shouts outside the villa door were getting louder and louder, making more and more beads of sweat on my head.

There's no way around it!

Listening to the sound outside the door of the villa, my heart beat to the extreme.

"Qiqi," I grabbed Xueqi's arm, stared into her eyes, and said to Xueqi very seriously, "Didn't you say that you would be the bride of Papa? If Papa's relatives knew that you were my daughter, wouldn't you be the bride of Papa?"

was asked by me like this, Xue Qi also understood, and looked at me with clear and innocent eyes.

"Qiqi, do you want to be my bride in the future and marry me?" At the critical moment, I almost shook Xueqi's arm and asked her such words, as if a robber was forcing passers-by to hand over their money.

“…… Well. Under my questioning, Xue Qi lowered her head a little overwhelmed, did not answer, but nodded slightly.

"Then you should hurry up and hide, don't let them know that you are my daughter, otherwise, we won't be able to get married!"

“…… I know. Under my almost coercive questioning, Xue Qi finally relented, and she ran up the stairs with three steps and two steps with a thud with her schoolbag in one hand and her homework book in the other. Before going upstairs, she looked back at me with a worried brow, her eyes resentful and complicated.

Xue Qi's look back shocked my heart, but I didn't have time to feel her mood, because the voices outside the villa were getting more and more urgent at that time.

Just after Xueqi went up to the third floor, I finally rushed out of the villa as fast as I could, and went to open the door.

To my surprise, there were five people outside the gate.

My uncle, my aunt, my cousin, and my cousin's wife, that is, my sister-in-law, and my cousin and sister-in-law's 4-year-old daughter, Lele.

"Haha, uncle and aunt, Brother Xia Bin, sister-in-law, it's you. I'm really sorry, I just went to the toilet and didn't have time to run over to open the door. I smiled and motioned for my aunt to come in.

"I see, I wonder why you parked your car outside and the people weren't there!I thought something had happened to you!" Hearing my explanation, my aunt immediately turned her anger into joy, and smiled gently, and the corners of her eyes with faint crow's feet were squeezed into a line.

"Huh. I'm fine, I'm just going to the bathroom...... By the way, even my sister-in-law is here this time. Hurry up and come in. Looking at the tall woman next to my cousin, with long shawl hair, a little heroic, but a little beautiful, I couldn't help but say with some surprise.

My cousin was eight years older than me, and he got married when I was 23 years old, which is when Xue Qi was 7 years old. The marriage partner is the granddaughter of a lieutenant general of the Beijing Frontier Military Region, named Hu Xiaoxia, who is a lawyer by profession. The cousin had a daughter the year after they got married, and since then the cousin has been living in Beijing, working in the police academy and the army while also taking care of his wife and daughter, and rarely returns.

When I was 8 years old, when Zhang Yang and I were working against each other, it was my cousin who came back from Beijing to help me out.

"Dongdong, you're still so polite. Seeing my enthusiasm, my sister-in-law smiled, she had an indescribable temperament when she smiled, which contained the heroism from the army and the talent of those with outstanding knowledge and academic qualifications. The status of the sister-in-law is very remarkable, because her grandfather is a lieutenant general of the Zhengda Military Region, and her background is also very big, even more powerful than my cousin, sometimes, I wonder how my cousin is so lucky to find a woman like my sister-in-law.

"Where, sister-in-law rarely comes, I can't let you stand outside the door, right? Come in quickly, I haven't seen Lele for several years, and they've grown so big." I smiled and lowered my head, touched the head of the little girl standing at my sister-in-law's feet, with two pigtails and a pair of big round eyes, and motioned for them to enter.

After entering the villa, I was busy washing the cups and pouring tea for my uncle's family of five, but my uncle persuaded me.

"Dongdong, you don't have to be so troublesome, just get some warm water. "My aunt stopped me and told me not to get busy, but I insisted on pouring them the frozen West Lake Longjing I bought not long ago.

After making tea, I took out fresh lychees and melon seeds and chatted with them in the living room.

"Dongdong, I heard that you just became the chairman of Sanxin Company?

My uncle got straight to the point, and before he started drinking tea, he asked me about it.

"Hehe, uncle, you're really well-informed. I've just come to power, how do you know. ”

"That's, what ears do you have for your uncle, and I've always been paying attention to your uncle. My uncle smiled a little smugly, and then with a satisfied look, he praised me and said, "Yes, yes, it's really promising." Uncle was not optimistic about you going into business before, and always wanted to find an opportunity to transfer you to Beijing, but I didn't expect you to break out of the world by yourself, which really made me ...... It's impressive. Ha ha. My uncle smiled from ear to ear as he spoke, and I laughed along. I have always understood what my uncle meant, as early as when I was about to enter Sanxin Company, my uncle always wanted to give me a job in the field through connections, but then I insisted on working in Sanxin Company for Xueqi. At that time, my uncle was still very unoptimistic, and called and even came to persuade me several times, but I refused, and in the end, I proved that I can also break through the world with the results. After that, my uncle was speechless and did not object to my decision.

"Hehe, then I didn't listen to your advice in the first place. I said.

I didn't expect to be told this, but my uncle shook his head and said to me in a low voice: "That's not true, after all, the status of businessmen is still not as high as that of officials, and everything has to be suppressed, and tax collection and stock operation are not based on the face of officials." Dongdong, I said. If you can go to the army for a few years and then slowly move into politics, my uncle will guarantee you more than being a boss. ”

"Uncle, don't talk nonsense, I'm not you, how can you have your courage and ability, only you can do a good job in that aspect. As for me, I couldn't do it by nature. That kind of thing also depends on natural talent, not that whoever is in a position can do it. If you have no ability but eat the food of the country in the name of the state, you can only become a corrupt official or a dumb official. ”

"Yo, you've got a lot of ideas. Hehe. ”

"It meant to be. Uncle, you are born with a temperament, I can't learn it if I want to, or business is the most suitable for me, and I have done well. I said it in the most tactful tone I could, and my uncle seemed pleased with my words.

"Well, I know that Dongdong you have done a good job in the past few years, from an ordinary employee to the chairman, if this kind of thing didn't happen to someone I knew, I really wouldn't be too lazy to listen to other people. ”

My uncle nodded and praised me, and asked me about my recent work and life situation, and I answered truthfully.

My uncle has extraordinary knowledge and experience, and he has a lot of intelligence information in his mind, and when I talk to him, he can always have some unique opinions, and often just a few words can make me suddenly open up and understand.

My conversation with my uncle was going well, but at the end, when talking about my life, my aunt suddenly said, "Husband, don't ask, I'll ask...... Dongdong, do you have any partners now?"

"Ah...... This ......" aunt suddenly interjected such a sentence, which immediately made me stunned, and then made me stumble in embarrassment, and I couldn't think of anything to perfunctory for a while.

"It seems that there really isn't!" Seeing my hesitant appearance, my aunt frowned and sighed, "I'll just say that you've been busy with the company's affairs in the past few years, and you haven't looked for a girlfriend at all, right?"

"Ah, what are you talking about, auntie...... I...... Where am I ......?"

"Dongdong, don't say it! My aunt told you, my aunt has already inquired about your company, and the people in your company say that you don't have a girlfriend at all. Dongdong, think about it yourself, you are 28 years old, you are about to run for three, and if you don't find a partner, it will be too late!"

"Hey, what the hell are you talking about, Auntie, I know this kind of thing myself, you can leave me alone. ”

"Why don't you care? When I asked you this a few years ago, you said the same thing, let me leave you alone and leave you alone, and now you see, all these years have passed, and there is still no object. It can be seen that I can't care about you anymore! Dongdong, I said that you are a dignified man, rich and powerful, good-looking, and not narrow-minded, so why don't you have a girl to associate with you? Are you gay and sexually frigid?"

My aunt has always spoken openly, and when I said this, my face was red-faced, but my cousin and sister-in-law laughed heartily.

"Auntie, I really know, you really don't care about me, feelings are such a thing, they must be cultivated slowly, they can't be a thousand miles a day, overnight, love at first sight is set for life...... Isn't that right?"

"You big-headed ghost!" my aunt squirted my words back into her stomach with a mouthful of spit. "You're still cultivating slowly, you don't even have a decent object, and you're still cultivating a head! You're here to perfunctory my aunt again, I know. ”

"Dongdong, to tell you the truth, aunt, I really treat you as my own son, although we don't live together, but I really care about you. After your brother Xia Bin got married, we are a matter of mind, and the rest of the worry is you. You say you're going to let us hug our nieces and nephews, right?"

My aunt's high voice shook my trigeminal nerve slightly, but my aunt's aura was too strong, and I was also hit by her, and for a while, I couldn't argue.
