NOVEL NEXT Chapter 10
Chapter 10:
When Xu Hao returned home, Su Wanqiu had just finished dinner and was carefully stepping into her room.
But the moment she saw Xu Hao, her whole body tensed up.
She suddenly recalled last night’s experience.
[Ding! Su Wanqiu feels scared, obtained 666 emotion points…]
Xu Hao walked over with a smile.
“If you’re not feeling well, lie down in bed. What are you thinking?”
Then he looked at the maid, who had just finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen.
“Didn’t I tell you? When Wanqiu wakes up, you bring the food to her, right?”
The invisible aura of one used to being in a superior position emanated from him…
The maid was frightened and trembling and quickly explained, “I… I was following Master’s orders. It was Madam, she… she…”
Su Wanqiu cut in, “Don’t blame her, I wanted to get out of bed.”
She was quite puzzled and didn’t know what was wrong with Xu Hao.
Not only did he suddenly act, but he did it decisively, and his attitude toward her had changed.
Xu Hao no longer made things difficult for the maid. He stroked his chin and looked teasingly at Su Wanqiu.
“If you can get out of bed and walk, it means you can endure it. Shall we continue tonight?”
After hearing Xu Hao’s words, Su Wanqiu’s face turned pale.
Her left foot suddenly felt unstable, and her whole body leaned to the side.
In a flash, Xu Hao’s quick eyes and hands swiftly pulled her into his arms.
“No… Don’t, it will kill me…”
Su Wanqiu struggled, her face pleading.
“How about we don’t do it tonight? Wait until I’m better and then I’ll accompany you…”
She was genuinely scared.
There was no way not to be afraid.
That feeling… it seemed like she was really going to die.
“Okay, since you said so. Once you’ve recovered, accompany me properly…”
With a teasing tone, Xu Hao reached out his hand and pinched her collagen-filled cheek.
In fact, Xu Hao hadn’t planned to continue tonight.
Although she was the protagonist’s stepmother, she was also his wife.
He had to take the sustainable development route.
Ruining someone all at once wasn’t the way to live life…
Having received Xu Hao’s promise, Su Wanqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she realized she was nestled in Xu Hao’s arms.
Her pretty face suddenly flushed.
Although they couldn’t make love tonight, when it was time to sleep, Xu Hao still came to Su Wanqiu’s room…
From now on, they won’t need separate rooms.
Wasn’t it nice to sleep with the protagonist’s beautiful stepmother?
…
The next morning.
Seeing that Su Wanqiu hadn’t completely recovered, Xu Hao didn’t bother her and got up early on his own.
Yesterday, he had notified to hold the board meeting.
He needed to go to the company and chat with those old foxes…
He decided to buy back all the shares and hold them in his own hands.
Today, Xu Hao decided to acquire these shares from those people.
First, he would be polite. If they didn’t agree to transfer the shares, he would keep them firmly in his hands.
Then they couldn’t blame him for turning his back on them… Hope they didn’t fail to appreciate his kindness.
Just as he arrived at the company entrance, Xu Hao bumped into someone he knew.
It was Xia Qingge, whom he had asked to report to the company yesterday.
Xia Qingge was also very happy and sweetly called out.
“Good morning, Uncle Xu.”
“You too, go directly to the personnel department to report. I’ve already informed them.”
“Okay, I’ll go now…”
“Wait a minute.” Xu Hao took out a delicate gift box from his pocket. “Yesterday I didn’t give you a gift when we met, so here it is today.”
He bought this small gift on the way home when Li Kun came to pick him up.
It was a little something that a girl would like…
The reason Xu Hao cared so much about this little female lead wasn’t only because she was the female lead and he could easily manipulate her emotions after arriving at the company. He wanted to take this little female lead under his wing, in every sense of the word…
To cultivate her into a capable helper.
His current hundred billion wealth was far from enough. To survive in this vast novel world, Xu Hao needed to become even more powerful.
A hundred billion was just the beginning. He intended to build a business empire worth trillions or even tens of trillions…
With the existence of the system, he didn’t have to worry about not having ideas for projects.
What he lacked most were talented and trustworthy people.
The development of a company couldn’t be entirely dependent on him.
It would be great if more female leads emerged…
Xu Hao had a brilliant idea to arrange all the female leads for the company he was building.
Not only would they help manage the company, but they would also help him solve life problems and provide emotion points…
Capitalists would cry when they heard this.
“No… You don’t have to…” Xia Qingge quickly waved her hand and tried to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Xu Hao was firm. He directly took her hand and forcefully stuffed the gift box into her hand.
The touch was cold and smooth.
Different from Su Wanqiu’s warmth, it seemed that this was the difference between a girl and a mature woman.
Xia Qingge found she couldn’t refuse, so she could only accept it helplessly.
“Then, thank you, Uncle Xu…”
Xu Hao smiled and patted her hand. “Work hard at the company. If you encounter any difficulties, come find me. I have high hopes for you…”
Xu Hao left.
Xia Qingge stared at his back. She had never had contact with the opposite sex in her life.
Thinking about the feeling of Xu Hao touching her hand just now, warm, powerful, and full of security…
[Ding!]
Xia Qingge returned to her senses and couldn’t help but curse herself inwardly, “Xia Qingge, Xia Qingge, that’s your uncle. What are you thinking?”
Looking at the gift box in her hand, she was a little curious, so she opened it.
Inside lay a delicate and flawless bracelet…
Xia Qingge’s eyes lit up.
She played with the bracelet, hesitant to put it down.
Thinking about how good Xu Hao had been to her, Xia Qingge secretly made up her mind.
She must work hard and not disappoint Uncle Xu’s expectations.
