“Daddy, it wasn’t easy for me to find my family. I really want you to live a long life! You weren’t able to be in my life for the first 20 years, but I hope you can spend the next few decades with me. I hope Daddy’s body will be healthy! Let’s go back so you can eat and rest, okay?”
“Okay!” Wu Jingzhong nodded silently.
Wu Pingting had teased Wu Jingzhong about wanting a daughter so badly and he had fought back, but Sze Lingyun only needed to say a few sentences to him before he would obey her instructions.
Wu Pingting was very happy. Her next words were unreasonable as she continued to tease her uncle. “Uncle’s got a slavedriver now! He’ll obey her every instruction!”
Not only was Wu Jingzhong not angry, but he even laughed happily at this.
That sentence was very pleasant to his ears.
A slavedriver…
Having a slavedriver daughter was a very beautiful thing, no?
Looking at Wu Jingzhong, who was smiling a little foolishly, Wu Pingting and Sze Lingyun’s eyes grew a little wet. This feeling of familial love was too much to bear.
When Wu Jingzhong finally arrived back at the Wu family residence, everyone shared a meal together.
After the meal, everyone told Wu Jingzhong to go rest, but he stubbornly refused. He instead pestered his daughter and asked her many questions about her well-being. After a short while, he took out all his belongings and said that he would give them to Sze Lingyun as dowry in the future.
She had been a poor student just minutes ago. Now, suddenly seeing the bank card with countless riches inside that her father was giving her, Sze Lingyun was so touched that she did not know what to say.
“Dad, even if I’m your daughter, you can’t spoil me like this. It’s too much! You should keep this money for your retirement.”
This did not make Wu Jingzhong happy. He would not feel at ease keeping this money. He wanted to give all his money to his daughter.
If not for the fact that Sze Lingyun would not be able to take its weight, Wu Jingzhong would have stuffed his treasure safe right into her hands.
“Lil Yun, listen to Daddy. Daddy wasn’t a good father. He didn’t protect your mother or you well. He let you live under someone else’s roof for so many years.
“If you didn’t have a boyfriend and weren’t going to have to face your in-laws soon, Daddy would naturally help you manage your money. But since he’s your fiance, you should know Li Jingyan’s family background. His father is the 12th Officer of the executive hall. He’s going to run for presidency in the future. His mother was the daughter of a first-class wealthy family in Emperor District. Even if Elder Xiao is an upright man, if you marry into a wealthy family without money of your own and a strong background, even if Li Jingyan’s parents liked you, you would have a hard time with the Xiao family in the future.
“Your father didn’t raise you, which made you suffer a lot. But in the future, Daddy will always be by your side. Even after you get married, Daddy will always be your father, a rock you can always lean on. Even though our Wu family isn’t a first-class wealthy family in Emperor District, we are a first-class wealthy family in Sea District and the wealthiest family in Sea District. Although our family doesn’t have the Xiao family’s prestige and status, Daddy can tell you with confidence that we have more money than them.”
Sze Lingyun, “…”
“What Daddy just gave you is only everything I have in Sea District. I still have more than half of my money in RS Bank. Moreover, the Wu group is still getting dividends every year. As long as our Wu family doesn’t collapse, you will have an endless stream of money for your future.”
