Chapter 126: Chapter 126 I Have a Father_1

Mrs. Xia’s heart suddenly ached upon hearing these words, and she thought about how pitiable a child without a father could be, subjected to ridicule. Lovingly, she stroked the little girl’s head, "Bao’er, you’re a good girl."

"From now on, Dad will protect you. If anyone dares to bully our precious daughter, Dad will beat them to death," Xia Jiehao said with tender love in his eyes, his large hand gently caressing the little girl’s delicate and beautiful cheek.

Although she wasn’t his biological daughter, he genuinely liked this girl.

The first time he saw this young girl at the Xia family home, he wished he could steal her away to raise as his own. Of course, he also liked the five boys, but he liked his daughter just a little bit more.

Xia Ningxing snuggled up to him, looking obsequious, "Dad is so nice!"

"This...we haven’t even gotten married yet...how is everyone already changing the way they address each other!" Listening to the father and daughter’s conversation, Mrs. Xia’s beautiful face turned even redder, her eyes shy and restless, not daring to meet Xia Jiehao’s gaze.

Xia Jiehao extended his other hand, embracing her once again, and whispered softly, "Lanzi, once we return this time, I’ll take you home to meet my parents, get our marriage license, and have a wedding."

"So soon?" Mrs. Xia exclaimed, surprised.

Looking at her with tender eyes, Xia Jiehao said, "Lanzi, I simply can’t wait to marry you."

"Why are you saying these things in front of the child!" Mrs. Xia couldn’t help but cover her face with her hand, feeling too ashamed to show her face.

Pretending to be dumbfounded, Xia Ningxing exclaimed, "Oh my, what’s wrong with my ears; it’s like I can’t hear a thing. What were you just saying?"

"..."

"Hehe, you guys keep chatting, I’m going to the restroom to make a call to share this great news with Lu and the brothers," Xia Ningxing waved at them, very consciously grabbing the bulky mobile phone and running out of the room. She made the call in the living room, so as not to disturb the two adults basking in their affection.

"Go ahead," Mrs. Xia said, her flushed face gentle.

On the living room couch, Xia Ningxing pressed the buttons on the bulky mobile phone, dialing Lu Tingli’s number.

She had long committed his number to memory.

Ah!

How could she be so smitten!

Xia Ningxing was almost moved by her own feelings.

"Lu!" As soon as the call connected, Xia Ningxing excitedly shouted, "Lu! I have some good news to tell you!"

"What is it?"

Listening to the childish voice coming from the mobile phone, Lu Tingli’s expression softened. He took a few steps forward, choosing a quiet spot as he waited for her to continue.

Xia Ningxing smiled, revealing her baby teeth, "I have a dad now! And he’s very rich!"

Lu Tingli was slightly taken aback. When did this child get a father again?

Then, almost reflexively, he asked, "Who is it?"

"Xia Jiehao."

Xia Ningxing happily reported the name of her new stepdad.

"..."

Lu Tingli couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly, wondering what luck this girl had to always encounter such powerful figures.

He considered himself one, the future Oscar-winning director Xu Tian another, along with the gold-medal lawyer Qin Zicheng, and now there was the fashion tycoon Xia Jiehao.

Moreover, judging by the way her family was setting up a perfume studio, it seemed likely that Mrs. Xia would also become a powerful figure in the future.

Since she was a good actress and a beautiful person, an award-winning actress future seemed certain for her.

So, was she going to be surrounded by powerhouses all around?

"Lu, why aren’t you speaking?" When there was no reply from the other end of the phone, Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but check the brick-like mobile phone in her hand, worried it might be broken.

"Lu?"

The young girl called out again.
