Rebirth Of The Godly Prodigal 155 Old Rogue

High-quality Australia beef! Look at that, anything that was related to Brother Dali had such good treatment!

Hong Dali grinned and said, "OK. Actually, I still have another cat called Corn. Xinxin liked it, so I asked her to take it."

"Yup, that's not an issue." Lan Ruoxi asked, "First, tell us. How did you find this little lady?"

"At first, I was walking the tiger on the road. Then, a little child wanted to take a look at it." Hong Dali sniffled. "I reckon that since I had nothing to do anyway, I let her see. As a result, more and more people came. I was bored and noticed Zixuan, dressed as a small beggar, was hiding in a corner and didn't dare to come over but only peeked at us. I was curious since it didn't matter if one more person came to look at Quentin or not, so I asked a lackey to bring her over. After we chatted, not bad, we got along quite well. Sister Zixuan is really good at gaming!"

"You mean to say, she was a small beggar, and because she wanted to look at Quentin but didn't dare to go over, so you brought her over to you?" Lan Ruoxi was shocked. "So simple? Today is the first day you guys met?"

"Yeah." Hong Dali strangely said, "She wasn't willing to go back home, so I brought her home with me."

"Then, after she bathed and turned so beautiful, you weren't surprised?" Lan Ruoxi was a little anxious now. Could it be that her son had something wrong with his s.e.xual preferences? This small la.s.s was so pretty, yet he didn't even mention anything about that?

"I was surprised!" Hong Dali nodded. "But I couldn't be surprised forever, right? Anyway, I see beauties frequently, so I didn't feel anything special."

That was true, the girls around Hong Dali were each one more pretty than the last. It wasn't strange for him to be almost immune to prettiness.

Lan Ruoxi thought for a while and suddenly smiled, saying, "Husband, see, didn't Dali always wanted us to give him a sister when he was small, but we never succeed. I think this small la.s.s is not bad, why not we…"

"Yup." Hong Weiguo puffed out his smoke. "This is practically Heaven sending Dali a sister by dropping her from the sky, not bad. OK, it's settled then. I will try to contact her family and let her become our G.o.ddaughter.

Even someone as formidable as Hong Weiguo also had to concede defeat to Hong Dali's luck—a random girl that he picked from the streets was beautiful like a fairy… No one would believe them even if they told this to others.

Since this was the case, as long as there wasn't a problem with her ident.i.ty, it didn't matter if they had an extra pair of chopsticks in the family.

Lin Zixuan had never thought that in just such a short moment, she actually became Hong Weiguo and Lan Ruoxi's G.o.ddaughter.

The small la.s.s was slightly at a loss of what to do. Luckily, Lan Ruoxi was more experienced. She held Lin Zixuan's hand and gently said, "You name is Lin Zixuan, right? Zixuan, from now on, you can just stay here. If you need anything, just let the butler know. We will help you inform your family, I think they won't disapprove. Do you think this is OK?"

After all, they were not very familiar yet. Lin Zixuan face showed some excitement and some nervousness. In the end, she still generously nodded and said, "Then… then I shall thank you first… thank you, G.o.dmother."

"Yo, husband, look at how sweet this small la.s.s' mouth is." Lan Ruoxi helped Lin Zixuan tidy her slightly messy hair and said, "It's getting late, I shall ask the butler to bring you to rest now. Is that OK?"

"OK." It shouldn't be bad letting herself cool down first. Lin Zixuan decisively nodded. "Then, I shall go and rest now. G.o.dmother and G.o.dfather, goodnight."

"Goodnight."

After Lin Zixuan left, Lan Ruoxi looked at Hong Weiguo. "Husband, what do you think…"

"Yup, this small la.s.s is not bad." Hong Weiguo touched his chin and asked Hong Dali, "Dali, did she run away from her family?"

"Yup. Supposedly, it has already been half a month." Hong Dali nodded and said, "I have asked the lackeys to check around. This what most of the neighborhood people said."

"Run away from home, then that should be easy." Hong Weiguo instantly took out his phone and dialed a number. He laughed and said, "Old Ji, it's me, Hong Weiguo. Yup, I would like to ask of you to help me check if there's anyone who made a police report about a missing girl this period in Tianjing City? Yup, that's right, a 14-year-old little girl. OK, let's meet up for gathering when you are free, you definitely must come. Hehe, alright."

After hanging up, Hong Weiguo smiled and said, "Let's wait a while, they have started checking."

Very quickly, his phone ringed. He picked it up and asked, "Yup, how is it? Oh, there really is, right? Which family is it? Lin Yingyi? Yup, I seem to have some impression of him. Yup, OK, wait for me to record it down."

Hong Weiguo took up a pen and recorded down Lin Yingyi's phone number. Then, he smiled and said, "Yup, OK, I have recorded it. Hehe, see you another day."

"How is it?" Seeing that he had gotten the information, Lan Ruoxi anxiously asked.

"Lin Yingyi, according to Old Ji, is the director of quite a big company in the east district." Hong Weiguo smiled and said, "Let me ask."

He dialed the phone number that he recorded down. Very quickly, a slightly anxious voice sounded from the other side. "h.e.l.lo, you are…"

Hong Weiguo said, "Is this Mr. Lin Yingyi? Is your daughter Lin Zixuan? With very white and delicate skin, and a small red mole on her neck?"

"It's Lin Zixuan, it's her!" Lin Yingyi was obviously agitated. He anxiously asked, "Mister, did you see my daughter? Where is she? I wish to see her immediately. Please be a.s.sured, I won't let you waste your time for nothing! You can make any request you want!" He thought for a while and anxiously said, "I only beg of you to not hurt her, please!"

"Hehe, Mr. Lin, you're too polite." Hong Weiguo said, "How long have your daughter left home?"

"Sigh, it's my fault for forcing her too much, she has already left home for half a month. She only called once a week ago to report her safety." He was so worried that he didn't even wait for Hong Weiguo to ask. Lin Yingyi said everything, "Mister, please don't hurt her, I only have this one precious daughter. As long as you can send her back, you can have as much money as you want! A million, how does a million sound to you!?"

Huh, looks like he thought that Hong Weiguo was a kidnapper. He thought for a while, suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, don't you think that this price is a bit too low?"

"This…" Lin Yingyi got anxious. "Three million! I offer you three million! As long as you don't hurt her, I'm willing to pay three million!"

"Looks like you still have some sincerity." Hong Weiguo plainly said, "Five million, a dollar less and I will take a finger from her instead."

"NO!" The person on the other side was obviously terrified. He anxiously said, "I agree! I agree! But…"

"But what?" Hong Weiguo asked.

"I can't raise so much money in such a short time. Can you give me two days? Just two days!" Lin Yingyi anxiously said, "Just two days! I promise not to call the police! I won't mention this to anyone, either! Mister, you should know that five million isn't a small sum. I really can't fork it out immediately!"

"All right, you do have some sincerity." Hong Weiguo said, "Tomorrow morning at 7:00 AM, go to the entrance to Ye Lai Xiang at the west fourth loop. I will ask someone to bring you over to see your daughter. If I discover even one police officer, your daughter will suffer for it."

"OK, OK, OK! I understand! I will be there punctually." Lin Yingyi anxiously said.

"Then, that's all. See you tomorrow."

After hanging up, Lan Ruoxi burst out in laughter and said, "You can really make a spoof, you old rogue."

Hong Dali, who was at the side, stared in bewilderment. His father really knew how to scare someone!

"Hehe, he's my G.o.ddaughter's father, I have to check on his moral quality." Hong Weiguo touched his chin and suddenly shouted, "Old w.a.n.g!"

Very quickly, Hong Dali's driver, w.a.n.g Mingyu, suddenly appeared in front of Hong Weiguo like a ghost. "Master."

"Ask someone to check on all the information on this Lin Yingyi from the east district—the more detail there is, the better." Hong Weiguo said in a deep voice. "Go now."

"Yes, Master."

After settling everything, Hong Weiguo then sat down on the soda, smiled and said, "To be our G.o.ddaughter, anything else is not important, but she must come from a clean background. I don't wish for our backyard to be on fire one day." When he finished, he said, "Dali, let me take a look at this small tiger."

"OK." Hong Dali placed Quentin in Hong Weiguo's lap. "Quentin, kiss daddy!"

Quentin instantly stretched out its tongue and licked Hong Weiguo's face, immediately causing them to laugh in joy.

Hong Weiguo said, "This is really a healthy and silly-looking tiger. Speaking of which, Dali, it looks like you really have an affinity with small animals. Previously, you raised quite a lot of dogs. Why, raising dogs is not interesting anymore, so you are changing to raising tigers instead?"

He couldn't tell them about the stuff related to the System, so Hong Dali sniffled and ambiguously said, "Oh, it was because I was too bored and heard that a private zoo was changing its business. I saw that those animals were quite pitiful, so I bought them all."

"Yup, as long as you like it." Hong Weiguo placed Quentin in Lan Ruoxi's embrace and said towards Hong Dali, "Dali, speaking of which, there's only one week left before your 18th birthday on May 28th. This is your coming of age ceremony, where do you want to hold it at?"

Coming of age ceremony? This world actually still does this?

He had to admit. Because he wasn't born in this world, he wasn't familiar at all with this coming of age ceremony. But this didn't stop him from answering. "Yup, anywhere is fine. I don't have any objections."

"This can't do." Lan Ruoxi, who was carrying Quentin, gently said, "Our little prodigal has grown up now, you're going to become an adult. This is a big matter—as big as the sky. If you disregard it, you will be looked down upon. Don't worry, this time, your Dad and I have prepared 10 million for your celebration expenses. After your coming of age ceremony, you will have to…" Speaking up to this point, she looked at Hong Weiguo, softly sighed, and didn't continue.

Hong Weiguo hurriedly continued the topic. "Once your 18th birthday is over, you will become one of the core members of the Hong Family. By that time, during the family meeting, they will inspect you. But I believe that it isn't a problem for you. You current achievements are more than enough to pa.s.s the inspection, so you don't have to worry."
