Transmigrating as the Villain Father, Forcing the Protagonist's Mother to Have Children-Chapter 93

Chapter 93

[Ding... Li Xiao is seething with anger. Emotional value +753...]

Xu Hao was, of course, aware of the protagonist, Li Xiao, but he deliberately ignored him.

Today was his grand wedding day with the landlady heroine.

He focused on enjoying the tenderness of the young heroine, temporarily sparing the protagonist.

He would deal with him properly later.

Xu Hao had no intention of causing trouble for Li Xiao, but Li Xiao refused to give up and followed him.

Both times the plot changed, it was because of Xu Hao. He had to investigate and figure out what was going on.

At the same time, he wanted to see how far their relationship had progressed.

He hoped they hadn’t gone all the way yet.

From the way Xu Hao had threatened Sister-in-law Yao Xinrui, it was clear that he wasn’t a good person.

If the little rich landlady had also been deceived by Xu Hao…

Just imagining the heroine being pinned down by a 50-year-old man made Li Xiao’s heart ache.

If they hadn’t taken that final step yet, he had to step in and stop it.

He couldn’t just watch a heroine fall into the fire pit.

Tonight’s dinner was arranged by Xiao Wanling.

Since she had decided to give herself to him, she wanted to prepare a romantic moment.

So, she planned a candlelight dinner to spend a special evening with Uncle Xu.

She booked a quiet window-side table.

Instead of choosing a private room, she preferred the atmosphere of the main dining hall.

Leading Xu Hao to the table, she lit candles and arranged fresh flowers.

The whole setting radiated romance.

“Uncle Xu, how do you like it?”

Xiao Wanling asked curiously, worried that he might not understand young people’s sense of romance.

“I didn’t expect you to enjoy this kind of vibe.”

“Girls like this stuff nowadays...”

Xiao Wanling giggled, her eyes twinkling.

“Then tell me, Uncle Xu, what do you think girls like?”

Xu Hao pretended to think.

“They like it in the study...”

“Ahh! Stop it!”

Xiao Wanling quickly covered his mouth, preventing him from continuing.

She glanced around, making sure no one had heard before letting go.

It was too embarrassing.

If someone overheard that, she wouldn’t be able to show her face again.

Even though she was, in fact, quite focused and serious back then… and she did enjoy it.

But that kind of “like” wasn’t the same as what he meant now!

Noticing the amused glint in Xu Hao’s eyes, Xiao Wanling immediately realized—

He never intended to say it out loud. He was just teasing her.

She rolled her eyes playfully.

“Uncle, you’re so bad.”

“I can be even worse...”

Xu Hao suddenly leaned in, their faces almost touching.

Feeling the warmth of his breath, Xiao Wanling’s heartbeat quickened.

She had the urge to throw herself into his embrace.

But she forced herself to hold back.

It was still early.

Was she really about to give in just like that?

There was still a candlelight dinner to enjoy.

“Ugh, you’re so annoying... I’m hungry, let’s eat first,”

Xiao Wanling muttered, her eyes avoiding his as she blushed and took her seat.

[Ding... Li Xiao grits his teeth. Emotional value +741...]

Watching from a distance, Li Xiao felt his heart shatter.

Xiao Wanling had actually brought Xu Hao to such a romantic place for a candlelight dinner.

They had almost kissed just now.

But what broke him even more was that—

There was no sign of anger on Xiao Wanling’s face from being harassed.

No fear, no anxiety, no indication that she was being threatened...

Only the shy expression of a young girl in love.

What did that mean?

It meant Xiao Wanling wasn’t being forced, nor was she being deceived—

She had willingly fallen for Xu Hao.

Li Xiao couldn’t understand it.

Sure, Xu Hao looked young and charming, but he was still a 50-year-old man!

Why would a girl in her early twenties fall for someone with such a huge age gap?

Something was wrong.

There had to be a problem.

Xu Hao was a scheming man.

Even if he wasn’t using threats, he must have used some other trick.

Other women might shamelessly accept a rich and powerful man.

But he knew the heroine’s personality.

Every heroine in the book was kind-hearted and strong-willed.

They wouldn’t give in for the sake of wealth...

Besides—

Xiao Wanling was a rich little landlady herself.

She didn’t lack money.

She was living quite comfortably.

That thought gave Li Xiao some relief.

Judging from Xiao Wanling’s shy demeanor, she hadn’t been completely taken yet.

There was still a chance to save her.

Li Xiao disguised himself as a regular customer and took a seat nearby.

He pretended to eat normally but kept a close watch on them.

He was waiting for the right moment to expose Xu Hao’s true colors and ruin their relationship...

Li Xiao observed them secretly.

Watching Xu Hao and Xiao Wanling being so lovey-dovey made him feel worse than being single.

And things only got worse.

Xiao Wanling cut a piece of steak and looked at Xu Hao.

“Uncle, the steak here is really good. Try some.”

She lifted her fork, intending to put the steak into Xu Hao’s plate.

But Xu Hao dodged it.

Confused, she looked at him.

Xu Hao simply opened his mouth slightly, the meaning clear.

Xiao Wanling got it immediately.

Uncle Xu wanted her to feed him.

Her heart filled with delight.

She had assumed he was too old to understand romance,

but he always managed to make her heart race.

Glancing around, she noticed that the third floor was nearly empty.

No one was paying attention to them...

So, Xiao Wanling brought the steak to Xu Hao’s mouth.

Xu Hao took a bite, chewed, and gave her a look of approval.

Not bad!

Encouraged, Xiao Wanling continued to feed him different dishes.

To make it more convenient—

The two of them, originally sitting across from each other, moved even closer…

Gradually, Xiao Wanling moved closer to Xu Hao, almost pressing against him.

Li Xiao, who was secretly watching, widened his pupils, his eyes dull with shock and confusion.

Was this really the mature, gentle, and elegant landlady heroine he knew?

She was actually feeding an old man by hand—so submissively.

Her entire persona had collapsed...

[Ding... Li Xiao is consumed by rage. Villain points +952...]

[Ding... Li Xiao’s mindset crumbles. Villain points +963...]

Xiao Wanling pulled out a bottle of red wine.

“Uncle Xu, do you drink red wine?”

“Wanling, do you think I’m that outdated? What kind of alcohol haven’t I tried?”

As Xu Hao spoke, his hand brushed against a silky smooth surface.

Xiao Wanling froze for a brief moment but pretended nothing happened, her face still glowing with a bright smile.

“Then let’s have some red wine. It pairs best with a candlelight dinner.”

“A little is fine, but you shouldn’t drink too much...”

“Why?”

“I don’t want you getting drunk. That would take away a lot of the fun.”

Xiao Wanling blinked in confusion.

Thinking about what was going to happen later that night, her face turned scarlet.

She hadn’t even drunk any wine yet, but she was already as red as an apple.

The two continued their candlelight dinner, sipping wine as the air between them grew thick with intimacy.

For them, the atmosphere was romantic.

For Li Xiao, it was worse than swallowing poison.

From his angle, he could clearly see Xu Hao’s hand resting on Xiao Wanling’s thigh...

What a shameless old pervert.

How could a man his age still be so into seducing young girls?

Even compared to Chu Xiong, who wasn’t exactly a saint himself, Xu Hao was downright repulsive.

Li Xiao couldn’t understand why they were even friends.

The only explanation?

Xu Hao probably befriended Chu Xiong because of his beautiful and charming wife.

[Ding... Li Xiao is seething with hatred. Villain points +987...]

Li Xiao finished his meal, but Xu Hao and Xiao Wanling were still lingering at their table, lost in each other.

Xu Hao’s hand remained where it was, savoring the softness beneath his palm.

Li Xiao sat there, chewing his food slowly to avoid being kicked out of the restaurant.

He clenched his teeth, rage burning inside him.

But little did he know—this was all intentional on Xu Hao’s part.

Watching his system notifications flood in, Xu Hao smirked.

In just one dinner, this so-called protagonist had already contributed tens of thousands of emotional points to him...

Once the notifications finally stopped appearing, Xu Hao decided it was time to wrap up the meal.

After leaving the restaurant, he and Xiao Wanling strolled down the street, chatting leisurely.

Li Xiao trailed behind them, perplexed.

Aren’t these two ever going to separate?

Couldn’t they at least take a bathroom break?

As long as they stayed together, he had no chance to get close to Xiao Wanling.

While Xu Hao and the heroine enjoyed their romantic walk, the protagonist followed behind, forced to witness their affection.

More than an hour passed...

Xu Hao glanced ahead and spotted a couple’s hotel not far away.

He suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to Xiao Wanling.

“Wanling, since you treated me to dinner, I have a gift for you.”

“A gift?” Xiao Wanling’s eyes lit up with delight.

Uncle Xu really understood girls.

He even knew how to prepare surprises.

“But before I give it to you, let me show you a magic trick.”

Magic?

Xiao Wanling’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

She still had the heart of a little girl—just hearing the word “gift” thrilled her.

And now, there was even a magic trick before the reveal. She was beyond eager.

Of course, this was only because of her romantic feelings for Xu Hao.

If it were some random guy trying this, no matter how spectacular the surprise, she would still maintain her elegant, indifferent demeanor.

“Watch carefully,” Xu Hao said, stretching out a hand.

“See? Nothing in my palm.”

Xiao Wanling grabbed his hand and checked thoroughly before nodding, a puzzled expression on her face.

Xu Hao smiled slightly. With a flick of his wrist, he secretly retrieved a delicate gift box from his storage space.

To prevent anyone from noticing the item appearing out of thin air, he smoothly transitioned the motion into a magician’s sleight of hand.

He would never expose the secret of his system. Not even the slightest risk of revealing it was acceptable.

“Wow...”

Xiao Wanling gasped in amazement, her face filled with astonishment.

It was summer, and Xu Hao wore short sleeves—she had just checked his hands and found nothing.

So how did the box suddenly appear?

Uncle Xu was incredible!

Not only did he know calligraphy, piano, and tea ceremonies, but he could even perform magic tricks?

Her heart surged with admiration.

Then, she eagerly examined the exquisitely wrapped gift box.

“Uncle, is this for me?”

“Who else?”

Xiao Wanling happily took the box and quickly opened it.

Inside, a delicate, beautifully crafted ring lay quietly in its case.

The craftsmanship of the ring was impeccable, undoubtedly the work of a master artisan.

The gemstone embedded in it emitted a soft glow, mesmerizing in its beauty.

Xiao Wanling covered her mouth in disbelief.

She was worth tens of millions, owned ten properties, and barely made it into high society.

She had a fair understanding of luxury goods.

And this ring—this was Cartier’s supreme edition, valued at over 18 million yuan.

“Oh my god, Uncle Xu actually gave me such an expensive gift...”

She stared at Xu Hao, completely stunned.

“Do you like it?”

Xiao Wanling dazedly nodded.

Then, realizing the situation, she quickly spoke up.

“Uncle, this is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”

“I got it just for you, and you’re telling me you won’t accept it? That would really break my heart.”

“It’s not that I don’t want it, it’s just... it’s too much—”

Xiao Wanling tried to explain, but Xu Hao interrupted her.

“Give it to me. I’ll put it on for you.”

Without thinking, she handed the ring to him.

Xu Hao took it, lifted her hand, and slid it onto her slender, jade-like finger.

Her hands were already beautiful—delicate and fair.

With the ring on, an air of elegance and nobility surrounded her, making her look even more dignified.

This was the ultimate “ring trap.”

Now that it was on her finger, there was no way she could refuse.

A wave of overwhelming emotion surged in Xiao Wanling’s heart.

Not because of the ring’s value, but because Xu Hao was willing to give her such a precious gift.

It proved her importance in his eyes.

That touched her more than anything else.

Looking at Xu Hao’s warm smile, she could no longer suppress her emotions.

She threw herself into his arms.

Tilting her head up, she kissed him.

Xu Hao’s eyes gleamed with amusement.

—Tonight was in the bag.

Xiao Wanling was already a wealthy woman.

If he had given her an ordinary gift, she would have been moved, but it wouldn’t have had the same effect.

This level of initiative from her was exactly what he wanted.

If she was this eager now, she definitely wouldn’t disappoint later.

For him—

Spending a mere ten or twenty million to win over a heroine was more than worth it.

The kiss ended.

Xiao Wanling’s face was flushed red.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Xu Hao.

She wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it.

Had she just... acted too crazy? Too shameless?

She had thrown herself at him like some desperate woman.

Would Uncle Xu think she was too easy?

[Ding... Xiao Wanling’s heart races wildly. Emotional value +888...]

“Wanling, let me take you somewhere.”

Xiao Wanling lifted her head, her eyes filled with curiosity.

“Where?”

She soon found out.

Xu Hao took her hand and led her toward a nearby couple’s hotel.

She could hear her own heartbeat.

Nervous yet unresisting, she let Xu Hao guide her forward.

On the other side, Li Xiao snapped out of his daze.

Seeing Xu Hao take Xiao Wanling to a couple’s hotel, he instantly realized what was about to happen.

There was no time to wait for an opportunity to warn Xiao Wanling later—he had to act now.

If he didn’t step in, she would be completely taken by Xu Hao.

It would be too late for anything.

He cursed himself for spacing out earlier—he should have stopped them right away.

Watching Xu Hao slip the ring onto Xiao Wanling’s finger and then seeing her throw herself at him for a kiss, Li Xiao was completely dumbfounded.

That was the heroine.

A wealthy, elegant, and dignified woman.

And just like that, she was gone?

It felt like his soul had been crushed.

He had assumed—

That as the protagonist, he didn’t need to rush things with the heroine.

He could take his time, grow stronger, and claim her later.

But now, someone had stolen her right from under his nose.

Li Xiao burned with fury.

He immediately rushed forward, determined to tell Xiao Wanling the truth.

He didn’t care if he offended Xu Hao.

So what if he did?

If Xu Hao dared to retaliate, he would expose his dirty secret with Sister-in-law Yao Xinrui to Chu Xiong.

If Xu Hao threatened Yao Xinrui, he would threaten Xu Hao in return.

However, before he could take a few steps, he stopped in his tracks.

A cold, expressionless woman blocked his way.

Her presence alone sent a chill down his spine.

He had seen her before—Xu Hao’s driver.

But he hadn’t expected her to be this strong.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Hao and Xiao Wanling had already disappeared into the hotel.

With her standing in his way, there was no chance of following them.

All he could do was rage in frustration.
