Chapter 418 The Beginning of Everything 9
Living with Xie Gui seemed no different from my previous life, except that it brought a bit more comfort and... a sweet burden.
For example, right now, Xie Gui's voice is coming from downstairs.
"Ah Yao, get up and eat."
Gu Yao glanced at the alarm clock, which read only seven o'clock, and then at the weekend time, let out a long sigh.
Resignedly, I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When Gu Yao arrived downstairs, Xie Gui had already prepared breakfast for him, with even the tableware neatly arranged.
Xie Gui is always like this, preparing everything for him.
Gu Yao sighed softly, sat down at the dining table, and began to enjoy the breakfast that Young Master Xie had personally prepared early in the morning.
Gu Yao still vividly remembers the first time he saw Xie Gui effortlessly recreate those dishes from the recipe; he was so astonished that his jaw dropped.
What an amazing man!
I'm even more eager to be a kept man now.
He really felt that Xie Gui was like an old father to him.
He was a single father who had lost his wife and was now raising his child alone.
Gu Yao opened his mouth and took a big bite of the bun. The rich aroma of meat burst in his mouth, and he squinted his eyes because it was so delicious.
Xie Gui smiled and placed the freshly heated milk in front of Gu Yao.
Gu Yao stared at the pure milk in front of her, her face stiffening. She then gave Xie Gui a pitiful look, "Brother Xie..."
Xie Gui shook his head, held up a finger and waved it in front of Gu Yao, saying decisively, "No! You have to finish it all today. You secretly gave the milk to Lao Zhang yesterday. Don't think I didn't know. I've already turned a blind eye. Don't push your luck..."
Gu Yao immediately wilted, looked up at Xie Gui with a pleading expression, and asked, "Is it really not possible?"
The boy's eyes drooped slightly, giving him an innocent and pitiful look. Xie Gui turned his head slightly and said stubbornly, "No."
"Is it really not possible?"
Xie Gui insisted, "No."
The child is great in every way, except he doesn't like drinking milk, but he's still growing and milk is very necessary.
Gu Yao picked up the cup in front of him with a bitter face, looking as if he were being tortured, yet also resigned to his fate.
Xie Gui looked at Gu Yao's face, which was scrunched up like a bun, and found it amusing.
Is it really that bad?
Gu Yao nodded, stuck out her tongue, and looked at Xie Gui as if making an accusation, "It really tastes awful..."
The pure milk had a strange taste; it was supposed to be tasteless, yet it tasted so awful.
Gu Yao doesn't like plain milk, but he can accept sweetened milk and yogurt.
For example, a certain Want Want brand.
In his words, those big eyes and bright red background look very festive, and that big smiling face makes people happy.
Just looking at it brings joy.
Gu Yao also enjoys being a child, one manifestation of which is his unusual obsession with collecting all kinds of Want Want packaging.
For example, there are 56 ethnic groups.
In the sky-blue room that Xie Gui had renovated for the child, there was a cabinet full of cans of a certain red-packaged beverage.
As a child, he could do whatever he wanted.
He led Xie Gui on a tour of his room, then childishly pointed to a cabinet full of jars and declared with great pride, "Look, this is the empire I conquered for you."
I still remember Xie Gui's speechless expression.
Having been raised by unreliable parents since childhood, Xie Gui has mastered extremely strong life skills from a young age.
After all, it's extremely difficult to survive with such unreliable parents.
Moreover, his parents, wanting to be hands-off owners, began planning to hand over the entire company to him from the moment he was born.
If Xie Gui manages to survive until he comes of age, he'll have to kowtow to Chinese law.
I still remember his coming-of-age ceremony, when his unreliable parents dragged him directly to the high platform in the banquet hall, raised his hand and announced that he was the new head of the Xie Group.
They delegated authority very decisively.
There was absolutely no dragging things out.
The idea that fathers and sons would turn against each other over power is simply untrue.
Xie Gui's father had long wanted to take his wife on a world tour. If it weren't for the Xie Group holding him back, or if he weren't the only son in his family, if anyone else in the Xie family could take on the responsibility, the position of chairman would never have been his.
He would happily be a couch potato, and then happily travel the world with his wife.
Xie Gui later even suspected that his parents had given birth to him so that they could enjoy their own life as a couple.
The shares were given out the day before, and the person left the following morning.
Xie Gui still remembers the bewildered look on his face under a barrage of media flashes.
He genuinely didn't expect his parents to be so heartless.
He's only just come of age.
I remember his father saying with a "heartfelt" tone, "Son, a fledgling eagle must eventually spread its wings and fly. And now, I think you have the ability to soar in the sky. Do your best and don't let your mother and me down."
Xie Gui really wanted to slap his father's refined and handsome face with the birthday cake.
Look at that smug look on that petty person's face.
Is it really that great to have successfully tricked your own son?
It will also CPU him.
God the hell has he been raised by these two unreliable people since he was a child? When have they ever cared for him?
He survived entirely thanks to the conscience of his family's nanny.
I didn't encounter any heartless nannies.
Since he was little, when we went out to play on weekends, his parents always complained that he was in the way and would always trick him into staying at home.
Why pretend to be a loving father or mother now?
Xie Gui was so angry he wanted to question her, but he could only smile in front of the flashing lights.
So angry.
But you should still keep smiling.
Because he is the sole heir to the Xie family conglomerate.
Then, as if they had planned it beforehand, a group of uncles and elders who were family friends surrounded him.
His parents, who had just tricked his parents, stood outside the crowd, smiling gently.
When he returned home the next day after committing the murder, the place was already deserted.
The headlines in those media outlets were all things like, "Shocking! The head of the Xie Group is only eighteen years old!"
"The Xie family conglomerate enjoys a harmonious and peaceful transition of power, with loving fathers and filial sons."
"The youngest chairman in history!"
"How extensive are the Xie Group's businesses!"
After that, he was placed in that highest position.
no choice.
So, seeing Gu Yao's smug expression and the silly smiling faces on the red jar, Xie Gui ultimately didn't utter any sarcastic words.
Seeing the child's bright and dazzling smile, he chose to protect him.
He wanted Gu Yao to have the happiness he had never experienced.
Such a well-behaved child deserves all the best things in the world.
He likes the smiles on children's faces.
So he reached out and gently patted the child's head, then nodded. "Then I'll trouble Your Majesty. Tonight's dinner includes Your Majesty's favorite braised pork ribs. Would you like to have some first?"
The child jumped off the bed and pounced on Xie Gui's back, shouting, "Yes! Little Xie, serve the meal!"
Xie Gui caught Gu Yao and steadily walked downstairs, a helpless smile on his face. "Yes, Your Majesty."
He didn't see that Gu Yao, who was lying on his back, was smiling slyly, his eyes bright.
