Xiao Daoan closed the door and continued driving. Xiao Haiqing curled up in the corner of the back seat, staring at Xiao Daoan without saying a word, like a fool.
Jiang Rong glanced back and smiled when Xiao Daoan wasn’t paying attention.
This stepdaughter’s temper was too strong. She knew very well what she was thinking and what she would do. Although she was not the one who gave birth to her, she had raised her for more than ten years. This temper of hers was also caused by her. How could she not control it?
Xiao Haiqing had a splitting headache and his mind was blank.
The car drove for a long time before it finally stopped in front of a villa.
“Honey, are we really going to let Hai Qing in?”Jiang Rong made a difficult expression.
Xiao Daoan looked at the villa in front of him with a heavy heart. He thought for a while and said,” I told her that I won’t mistreat her. As long as she helps me get Jing Yunzhao’s recipe, I’ll get engaged to her when she comes of age in a year’s time…”
Jiang Rong despised him in her heart.
Her husband was such a person. She clearly knew in her heart that the other party was just saying it, but he still wanted to find an excuse for her daughter.
Fortunately, she gave birth to a son and not a cheap one like Xiao Haiqing.
However, she had to admit that Xiao Haiqing was quite pretty. If she was really obedient enough to get Jing Yunzhao’s recipe, then James would not abandon her. Even if she could not get married, she would still be able to be his woman, and her life would not be too bad.
Jiang Rong would not be stupid enough to tell the truth. She waited quietly in the car and watched her husband personally send her daughter into the villa.
After Xiao Daoan carried the unconscious Xiao Haiqing into the room, he saw James nodding at her with satisfaction and stuffing the check into his hand.
“Mr. Xiao, your daughter is really like an angel.”James said in awkward language.
Xiao Daoan laughed dryly.
Five million yuan was nothing to a big company, but to him, it was timely.
Moreover, James also said that if Hai Qing was obedient, he would help him contact some business in the future to ensure that his company would not starve to death and even develop better and better.
The He family hadn’t gotten any benefits from James yet.
“Mr. James, my daughter is not feeling well, so she’ll be resting here for the time being. I’ll pick her up tomorrow morning. “Xiao Daoan said politely.
“Of course you can.” James laughed.
Xiao Daoan said a few words of flattery. He glanced at Xiao Haiqing on the sofa and walked out with heavy steps.
The night was getting darker outside, and the cold wind was blowing. Xiao Daoan felt a chill in his heart. The image of his deceased wife appeared in his mind. His mood was complicated and anxious. He sighed faintly and returned to the car. He was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he stared at the villa and smoked a whole pack of cigarettes.
Smoke in the car, Jiang Rong did not rush, she even comforted, “Hubby, think about that Miss He from before. She became so popular because of her relationship with James. Our Hai Qing looks better than her. Mr. James will definitely love her more. You have found a good family for her. She will thank you in the future…”
The gentle voice kept numbing his nerves. Xiao Daoan’s eyes were slightly red, and his hands were trembling. In the end, he went to the back seat and let Jiang Rong drive away.
At that moment, Jing Yunzhao was already at the Xiao family’s front door. She gritted her teeth when she saw the dark room.
“Big Brother Bai, have you found out where James lives?”Jing Yunzhao asked..
