Section 86

Xu Hao reached out and tried it.

He thought it would be heavy, but he lifted it easily.

So, Xu Hao carried the Piano with one hand and walked into the house.

Xu Hongzhuang was chatting with the Sisters.

Hearing the noise from outside, she looked up.

She saw Xu Hao walking in with a Piano in one hand.

Lifting a Piano with one hand?

Xu Hongzhuang rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things…

After confirming she wasn't mistaken, she was shocked.

When did this heartless father become so strong?

She couldn't help but think of what her two younger Sisters had said about Xu Hao easily dealing with those punks.

Everything her Sisters had said was now confirmed.

Xu Hongzhuang felt extremely complicated.

She recalled Xu Hao's meaningful words at the concert hall: don't be fooled by appearances.

Could it be… there was something hidden before?

Was their coldness and ruthlessness not intentional?

While she was lost in thought, Xu Hao walked over and said with a smile.

"Hongzhuang, I know you like the Piano. You might not be used to not having one at home, so I had one ordered."

"Where do you think it should go?"

He quietly set the Piano aside, leaving the good deeds without recognition and expecting nothing in return to the protagonist.

What he wanted was to create a debt of gratitude, making the female lead repay him, leveraging kindness for favors.

Xu Hongzhuang snapped back to reality, showing an incredulous expression, and asked in surprise.

"Bought for me?"

Seeing Xu Hao's puzzled look, Xu Hongzhuang suddenly realized.

If not for her, why would Xu Hao buy it for himself?

Over the years, she had never seen any sign of a Piano at home.

It must have been bought because she came back.

Not only did he buy it, but Xu Hao also personally carried it over.

This level of concern stirred ripples in Xu Hongzhuang's heart…

"Hongzhuang, hurry up and tell me, I can't hold it much longer."

Xu Hao pretended to struggle.

Xu Hongzhuang, still not fully recovered, said blankly.

"Put it in the study."

After saying that, she felt it was wrong. Xu Hao bought her a Piano and kindly asked where to put it.

And she just bluntly said a sentence, which was too inhuman.

So, Xu Hongzhuang led the way.

The Xu Family had two studies: one for the daughters and one for him.

They went all the way to the daughters' study.

They placed the Piano in an open space.

"It's newly bought, I don't know how the keys are. Hongzhuang, why don't you try it?"

Xu Hao looked at his daughter with a smile.

Xu Hongzhuang brought a stool, placed it in front of the Piano, and sat down…

Seeing the Piano brand, she was slightly stunned.

This was the new model from Steinway that she had been eyeing for a long time.

But the price was eight or nine million, which she couldn't afford at all.

Xu Hao actually bought it for her.

At this moment, Xu Hongzhuang's heart was no longer rippling, but surging with waves…

She took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.

She raised her hand and placed it on the keys.

After a test, every key was perfect and very clear.

This was the best Piano Xu Hongzhuang had ever used.

"Since there's no problem, I'll be going then."

Xu Hao turned to leave.

"Wait…"

Xu Hongzhuang suddenly called out to him.

After a long pause, she stammered out two words.

"Thank you."

[Ding… Xu Hongzhuang was moved, Emotion Points +362…]

"Thank me for what? You're my daughter, it's my duty. Go to bed early, girls shouldn't stay up late."

Xu Hao showed a loving father's smile, waved, and left.

Thanking him now might be a bit early.

The reason he gave the Piano to his daughter now was so she could play it for fun when she had time.

When she discovered the gap between herself and him, she would start to panic.

Now, Xu Hongzhuang had been set up.

If her fans found out that her playing was far from the Symphony of Destiny,

they would definitely turn from fans to haters.

Xu Hongzhuang would realize this when she started playing.

Then she would have no choice but to come and beg him.

Playing a game of wits with his daughter was truly enjoyable.

Just as he returned to the bedroom, Su Wanqiu, dressed in a maid outfit, stood by his side.

"Master…"

She called out shyly, then obediently helped him undress.

Now the two were no longer satisfied with fun clothes and fancy outfits; they had started playing role-playing games.

Today, Su Wanqiu was playing the Little Maid.

There were many more professions waiting ahead.

Doctor, nurse, nanny, daughter…

Xu Hao reached out, his fingertip lifting her pointed chin.

"Little Maid, you weren't obedient today. You didn't do as I said."

"What do you mean? I did say it."

Su Wanqiu knew he was referring to the matter of speaking well of him in front of his daughters, and couldn't help but retort.

She had indeed said it in the car just now.

Although she only said one sentence.

"Hmph… You dare to talk back to me. I think you're asking for a spanking."

[Ding… Su Wanqiu was shy and couldn't help herself, Emotion Points +695…]

The next day—

Xu Hao was about to leave when he happened to have to take his daughters to school for their morning classes, so he gave them a ride.

Arriving at Modu University, Xu Hao didn't leave immediately.

He planned to take a stroll around the school.

Come to think of it, he hadn't been to the school since he became a shareholder.

The school had even prepared an office for him, but he had never visited it…
