Section 60

Noticing the jar of wine in Xu Hao's hand, Xia Dahai hurriedly said.

"Brother, since you came, why bother bringing a gift?"

"You're overthinking this. I didn't bring it for you. The two of us will drink it together later…"

Xia Dahai took the jar of wine, looked closely, and instantly got a shock.

Goodness.

52-year-old maotai.

Taken from Xu Hao's hands, he certainly didn't think it was fake.

This bottle of wine, if casually taken to an auction, could fetch an exorbitant price of at least tens of millions.

Just taking it out to drink like this?

Brother is truly wealthy and bold.

Leading Xu Hao into the house, Xia Dahai didn't hold back, taking out tea leaves he had treasured for many years.

Setting out the tea set, he began brewing tea for Xu Hao.

Xia Qingge, on the other hand, went out to buy groceries.

She wanted to showcase her culinary skills in front of Xu Hao…

"Brother, did you eat some kind of miraculous Spirit Pill? We are getting older the longer we live, but you are getting younger instead."

The two of them leisurely sipped tea together.

Looking at Xu Hao's seemingly younger appearance, Xia Dahai couldn't help but exclaim aloud.

"Where are there any miraculous Spirit Pills? It's just that I live rather casually and have a good mindset…"

Xu Hao laughed it off.

Secretly thinking to himself, that brat really hit the nail on the head.

Marrow Cleansing Pill, isn't it just a miraculous Spirit Pill?

But he would not admit it.

Xia Dahai just made an exclamation and didn't think much of it.

Upon thinking of Xu Hao's net worth in the tens of billions, having little daily pressure and being able to relax with daily exercise.

How could he be like a wage slave like him?

Rushing around and toiling for the company, facing pressure every day, rapid aging was inevitable.

"Right, Brother, I want to ask you about something…"

Xia Dahai instantly wore a conflicted expression at the thought of his daughter who had fallen in love.

"What?"

Xu Hao cast a curious gaze.

Xia Dahai immediately spoke about his daughter holding flowers and foolishly rejoicing.

"I want to ask Brother, when you were at the company, did you see Qingge walking relatively close to any male friends?"

His daughter only accepted that guy's flowers after arriving at Xu Hao's company.

There should have been some contact within the company…

Xu Hao feigned deep thought on the surface, while laughing inwardly.

That mysterious male boyfriend, isn't it just him?

It seems… Xia Qingge's birthday that day really moved her.

Then wouldn't the chances for tonight be even greater?

Xu Hao thought for a moment, seeming to recall, and then shook his head.

"Qingge gets along quite well with the employees at the company, but I haven't heard of her having a good relationship with any male…"

"Is that so?"

Xia Dahai was somewhat disappointed.

The two chatted idly, here and there.

Time slowly passed…

"Dinner is ready."

Xia Qingge called out.

The two turned their heads to look.

And saw Xia Qingge wearing an apron, carrying plates of dishes out of the kitchen.

Finally, fragrant delicacies filled the entire table.

The two put down their tea cups and came to the dining table to sit down.

Looking at the large table full of exquisite dishes, Xu Hao couldn't help but exclaim.

"Younger Brother really has good fortune, having such a virtuous daughter, unlike those unconscionable ones in my family."

"Not at all… Qingge can just do some housework, Brother's daughters are truly peerless in elegance…"

Xia Dahai hurriedly replied modestly.

Yet his face bore an expression of shared honor.

His daughter Xia Qingge indeed made him feel gratified.

However, thinking that his daughter had a boyfriend, and not knowing which bastard she would cheapen in the future, he started feeling distressed again.

Xia Qingge carried out the last dish from the kitchen.

Just happened to see the polite exchange between the two, feeling rather strange inside.

Uncle Xu looked more than 20 years younger than her father.

And he was calling her father Younger Brother, while her father was calling him Older Brother.

When getting along with Uncle Xu in the past, she would always involuntarily ignore the other's age…

So he was even a bit older than her father.

Thinking of Xu Hao's unconditional trust in her, his concern on her birthday, and his help during times of danger.

She instantly stopped caring about that huge age gap.

Moreover, Uncle Xu looked so young.

Xu Hao skillfully opened the wine, pouring a full large cup for both Xia Dahai and himself.

"Brother, pour a little less, this wine is worth tens of millions."

"Isn't wine meant for drinking? Tonight, us brothers will drink to our heart's content…"

Hearing her father say that this bottle of wine was worth tens of millions, Xia Qingge was also taken aback.

Just a bottle of wine, isn't it a bit too expensive?

Curiosity rising, she hurriedly picked up an empty cup and held it up in front of Xu Hao.

"Uncle, I want to drink too…"

"Didn't I pour some for you last time? Remember who said they would never drink again?"

Xu Hao smiled teasingly.

Xia Qingge couldn't help but blush a bit.

But this time she wanted to thank Xu Hao.

Xu Hao drinking alcohol while she drank a soft drink was truly inappropriate.

She also really wanted to taste what such expensive wine actually tasted like.

It should taste better than the wine from before, right?

"Qingge, don't make a fuss, such good wine is too wasteful to give to you…"

Xia Qingge glared back at her father with dissatisfaction.

"Me drinking wine is a waste, isn't you drinking wine a waste?"

Saying that, she wanted to pull her hand back.

Uncle Xu also said he wanted to drink together with dad.

If she drank it and they had nothing to drink, what would happen?

Xu Hao saw through her thoughts, and before she could take it back, poured her a small cup.

"What waste or no waste, wine is just meant for drinking…"

"Just this much for now, Qingge, you drink this first, if it's not enough I'll pour you more, girls still shouldn't drink too much alcohol."

Xia Qingge wanting to drink alcohol suited his intentions perfectly.
