"Oh, it seems I came back just in time. It's time for dinner."
When we returned from the special department’s base, it was already noon.
Passing by Tang Youxin's house, smelling the aroma of food wafting from inside, Xia Xu walked in cheekily and said with a smile: "Uncle Tang, you don't mind adding a set of bowls and chopsticks, right?"
"I do mind that, but we are just a small family and cannot afford to serve you, a big boss, good food."
When Tang Zhan thought about how his daughter, who had never been far away, was abducted to Decheng for several days, he looked at Xia Xu's familiar appearance and felt as if his little cotton-padded jacket had been stolen, and he glanced at him unhappily.
Unfortunately, his leaky little cotton-padded jacket had already run to get the bowl and chopsticks to serve the rice.
Seeing this scene, Tang Zhan became even more furious and his face twitched.
"It's okay. I'm not picky about food. I'm fine with some stir-fried cabbage."
Xia Xu smiled and took the bowl and chopsticks handed to him by Tang Youxin. He picked up a piece of stir-fried sprouts from the plate in front of Tang Zhan with his chopsticks.
Especially when he picked it up, he deliberately paused in mid-air for a moment. He looked like a villain who had succeeded.
"This is the first time I've seen someone as arrogant as you come to my house."
Tang Zhan was so angry that he ended up laughing.
"Hey, you saw it today. You see, Uncle Tang, you have gained some knowledge. It's not a loss."
Xia Xu laughed and talked while eating his meal.
Tang Zhan was now also annoyed by Xia Xu's reckless attitude.
I have to say that this boy is absolutely an outlier among outliers. If an ordinary high school student meets the parents of a girl he likes, he would be like a quail. A normal son-in-law would be extremely restrained when visiting the house, not like this boy now.
Fortunately, apart from being angry about his own little cabbage being taken away, he had a pretty good impression of this guy, and they were already quite familiar with each other before he learned about this matter, otherwise he would have beaten the guy out with a rolling pin long ago.
To be honest, he still doubts whether this guy moved in deliberately to establish a good relationship with him. Before, he called him "uncle" more affectionately than anyone else.
"I should report in a few days, right?"
Sighing, Tang Zhan didn't really intend to do anything to break up the couple.
In fact, he has now tacitly accepted their relationship.
After all, Xia Xu was almost impeccable in other aspects except that he was a little bit unruly in front of him.
First of all, he has good character, and most importantly, he is extremely self-disciplined. This can be seen from the fact that he can do high-intensity morning exercises on time every day. The training intensity is even higher than when he was in the army. Without willpower, he would not be able to persist.
Not to mention his abilities and talents, he is also well-rounded in terms of interpersonal skills, intelligence and emotional intelligence. In terms of studies, he was the first person in history to score full marks in the college entrance examination. In terms of career, he started his own company right after graduating from high school, and it is said that he is quite successful.
He is not a snobbish person who curries favor with the powerful, but it would be best if his daughter could be free from financial worries. She would not have to deal with the daily necessities of life, and would naturally have fewer worries in life.
Of course, in his opinion, these are actually secondary. The most important thing is that his daughter likes it. He has also noticed the changes in his own leaky little cotton-padded jacket in recent months.
"Well, there are still five days left. I might go there two days earlier because I have to go to the Magic City to take care of some things."
Hearing Tang Zhan's question, Xia Xu stopped eating and swallowed the food in his mouth before returning to his serious expression.
"Uncle Tang, I have difficulty walking, and Youxin doesn't want me to follow you, so you two can go there by yourselves. Remember to take good care of her for me."
Tang Zhan was silent for a moment, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then sighed.
"Hehe, Uncle Tang, you can rest assured. If you don't believe me, just look at how Youxin has grown fat in the past ten days since she came to Decheng with me."
Xia Xu said this with a grin and glanced at Tang Youxin teasingly.
"No, I'm not fat."
The little white flower, who was a little shy but couldn't help but eavesdrop, became furious when she heard this.
"Anyway, I'll hold you responsible for any harm done to Youxin."
Seeing the two of them laughing and joking, Tang Zhan cursed with a smile.
He still believed Xia Xu's words. Since this kid appeared, his daughter has indeed been well taken care of. It can even be said that he did better than his father.
After all, there is always a generation gap between father and daughter. No matter how close and caring they are, there is still a barrier. They are reluctant to talk about many things, and it may seem awkward and embarrassing to talk about them. He can only watch Youxin's increasingly autistic and cowardly character and feel anxious.
But in recent months, my daughter is not only always happy and cheerful, but she has also become much more cheerful and confident.
She already dared to refute what others said.
She already dared to refuse other people's requests.
She was able to come back confidently and tell him that she had gotten good grades and had become a computer expert.
She was already able to speak with great enthusiasm about terms and jargons that he no longer understood, and told him as if to take credit that she could now help Xia Xu, help the country, and make a lot of money.
She already... dared to flirt with this brat in front of me!!!
"I'm stuffed."
Tang Zhan's face suddenly turned sour for some reason, and he slammed his chopsticks on the table.
"Ah? Dad, but you didn't even eat a bite."
Only then did Tang Youxin turn her gaze to her old father.
"No more."
Tang Zhan got up and went upstairs with a sour face.
"Hey, ignore him, let's eat, come on, open your mouth, I'll feed you, ah~"
Xia Xu picked up a piece of fried pork and handed it over with a smile.
Tang Youxin glanced at Tang Zhan's back as he went upstairs, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened her mouth slowly with a slightly red face.
"Have another piece. This one is big, with fat and lean parts. You'll like it at first sight."
“Ah!”
Xia Xu enjoyed the joy of feeding the cat, while Tang Zhan, who went upstairs, silently nibbled on the cold steamed bun that he had quietly picked up when he passed by the kitchen counter.
All we can say is that people’s joys and sorrows are not the same.
After the meal, Xia Xu did not stay idle in the afternoon, but went straight to the driving test center.
As for why I went, it was naturally to get a driver’s license.
After receiving 200 million medical orders and 1 billion wolf enhancement serum orders, the entire Xinghai Group has been expanding frantically, with Xinghai Biology and Xinghai Industry being the top priorities.
Now Xinghai Industry has acquired many factories of various types, including an unknown small automobile factory. Now he can design and manufacture any vehicle he wants by himself.
Like cars and other mechanical and electronic products, most of the parts are purchased from various manufacturers. From engines to windshields, there are specialized manufacturers who develop and produce them.
Therefore, as long as he is willing to spend money, it is very simple to assemble a car. Now he can design and modify the car he wants at will, and he can easily drive it on the road legally after the modification.
In fact, he had already put forward his requirements for appearance structure and functions as soon as the acquisition was completed, and asked Xinghai Industry to build it for him according to the specifications of a top supercar.
Because all the existing parts are used and there is no high-end black technology, the manufacturing progress is very fast. Now it has been completed and he is just waiting to pick it up.
The only embarrassing thing is that he doesn't have a driver's license yet.
Of course, this was not a problem for him.
He just doesn't have a driver's license. He knows how to drive. If he doesn't know how to drive, he can use the super brain potion to learn quickly. It's not too difficult. It only takes a word to use a little backdoor in the time arrangement of the driving test. Now he just needs to go and take the test.
