Chapter 639: Chapter 637 Can This Really Be Done?_1

If Xia Ningxing saw this scene, she would definitely flip him off with her middle finger and say, "What’s the point of stepping on the newspaper? If you have the guts, come step on me in person! I’ll make sure you learn what cruelty is!"

"Madam Zhao quickly comforted him, "Good boy, don’t be angry, I’ll have someone catch her soon and treat her like a dog for you!"

"Good idea!" Madam Zhao’s son revealed an eager smile.

Meanwhile, at the Lu Family’s home.

Originally, the whole family was discussing wedding preparations, but suddenly a servant brought in this newspaper.

Immediately, everyone’s expressions changed.

Who on earth spread these rumors? It was clear they wanted to ruin Xia Ningxing’s marriage!

The second grandma couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows and said sarcastically to Xia Ningxing, "Wow, I would never have thought you two had such a relationship!"

The second grandma was naturally foul-mouthed, and because she had some past grievances with Xia Ningxing, seeing this news filled her with schadenfreude.

"You damn bitch, shut your mouth!" The second grandpa suddenly scolded her, wishing he could just strangle her.

Didn’t she realize what time it was, adding fuel to the fire like this!

The second grandma, unconvinced, put her hands on her hips, "She did such a shameless thing, why shouldn’t I speak about it!"

"This is clearly framing someone. Talk about your own family!" The second grandpa was almost done in by her uncontrollable mouth and forcibly dragged her out, "Get out of here already!"

Xia Aiguo’s hands, holding the newspaper, were trembling with rage, almost standing on end, as he slammed the table, "Nobody should believe this! This is slander! It’s outrageous to make things up like this!"

It was true he had gone to the hotel with his daughter, but the reason they went there wasn’t at all like what the newspaper was fabricating about booking a room; they were there to arrange accommodations for the guests.

The castle on the island, although big, couldn’t accommodate so many guests.

So the father-daughter pair personally went to look for hotels, and then, worrying, they went to double-check in the morning, to prevent any oversights.

But they never expected it would be blown out of proportion by someone maliciously taking things out of context and creating such a mess.

Xia Aiguo hurriedly explained everything.

"Aiguo, rest assured, none of us will believe these rumors, and you should calm down, too. It’s not worth getting upset over such things," Sir Lu gave him a reassuring look.

It’s worth mentioning that Sir Lu and Xia Aiguo were old acquaintances.

"Why personally go to check on the hotel arrangements? Can’t you have someone else oversee it? Aren’t you tired?" Lu Tingli obviously knew about their hotel arrangements for the guests and couldn’t help but rub Xia Ningxing’s head.

Xia Ningxing sighed and said with a bitter smile, "It is my own wedding after all. I just wanted to take a hands-on approach."

But who could have imagined that some people’s imaginations are so damn rich, creating such a filthy story about her and her father.

People’s morals have really degenerated!

Xia Ningxing’s brothers were furiously upset, "I’m going to find out who did this now, and I’ll make sure they end up dead and dismembered!"

"Brothers, here’s a tip for you, go check on Aiguo Uncle’s two brothers, they are the most suspicious," Xia Ningxing pointed out. Apart from them, she didn’t have any enemies, except for Xia Jianren and Xia Laosan.

So if they were unlikely suspects, who else could it be!

Lu Tingli raised his hand, "No need to look any further, I’ve already had someone find out."

"Is it them?" Xia Ningxing instantly asked in return upon hearing this.

Although it was a question, there was a certainty in her voice.

"You guessed right, it was indeed them," Lu Tingli nodded.

"Bastards! Bastards!" Upon hearing such a definite answer, Xia Aiguo’s vision turned dark in an instant.

Originally, when Xia Ningxing had guessed it was them, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart; after all, he was their own big brother!

But now the cruel truth had torn apart his last bit of fantasy.

"How could they do this!" Xia Aiguo slammed the table again, his eyes almost bursting with rage, and fire seemed ready to burst forth from his chest, but soon he understood, "Is it because of those antiques and paintings? But I only took what should belong to me in the first place; how dare they retaliate like this!"

"It’s one thing to retaliate against me, but to retaliate against Xingxing too!"

"I’m going to confront them right now!"

Saying so, Xia Aiguo was about to rush out and fight.

He could endure slander against himself, but not against Xia Ningxing. Sorry, he couldn’t bear it and had to fight!

"Auntie, please calm down!" Xia Ningxing hurriedly held him back, "I presume Lu must have already started teaching them a lesson."

She knew Lu Tingli well; now that the real culprits had been found, he would surely make them pay for their actions.

Lu Tingli nodded; he had indeed taken care of it, "I’ve already had people take control of them, and they will also personally apologize to Ningxing, uncle, you can rest assured."

A fierce light flickered in his eyes.

Daring to defame his wife, he had to teach them a lesson, lest they think they were pushovers!

"Well done!" Hearing this, Xia Aiguo’s anger dissipated quite a bit, and he patted Lu Tingli’s shoulder, showing an admiring look for his son-in-law.

"Having my daughter marry you puts my mind at rest," he said.

"Your daughter?" Everyone was taken aback at these words.

Considering Mrs. Xia’s feelings, both Xia Ningxing and the Xia Couple have been calling each other "master" or "uncle" in her presence, so it was quite a shock when Xia Aiguo suddenly referred to Xia Ningxing as his daughter.

"Cough cough, what I meant was, Xia Ningxing resembles my daughter so much. Now seeing her marry a reliable man like Lu, I am very relieved and comforted, it’s as if I’ve seen my own daughter find her happiness..." Xia Aiguo quickly clarified.

His half-truth didn’t give the slightest hint of inconsistency, and instead moved Mrs. Xia.

"If Brother Xia and Sister Ning wouldn’t mind, please consider Bao’er as your goddaughter, and let her perform filial duties for your daughter," Mrs. Xia unexpectedly said.

Everyone present was stunned.

Including Xia Ningxing.

They had thought that Mrs. Xia, being so protective, would absolutely not allow Xia Ningxing to become someone else’s daughter, not even in name.

"Can this, can this really be?" Both Xia Aiguo and Mrs. Xia Ning were shocked and overjoyed, as if struck by a five-million-dollar fortune.

"It really can," Mrs. Xia sincerely nodded, "It really can."

After all, just being a godmother wouldn’t shake her position as her real mother.

And they had prepared so much dowry for their own daughter, obviously treating her deep down as their own; they had just been reluctant to mention it because they were mindful of her.
