âGreat, great! Thatâs a really great speech!â Xiao Wanshan applauded after hearing Xiao Siqianâs opinion.
At this moment, Xiao Junxuan came in and asked with confusion, âDad, I heard your laughter from far away. What are you talking about thatâs so great?â
Xiao Wanshan told his son, âI just said that Xiao Quanâs opinion is great. Little Xuan, Xiao Quan was just telling me that the future price of houses will rise and thereâs a huge potential for growth. His analysis is spot on and I think itâs really great!â
âForeign housesâ prices will skyrocket, and thereâs a huge potential for growth?â Xiao Junxuan frowned, his eyes half-closed, and asked again, âXiao Quan, can you repeat what you just said?â
Then, Xiao Siqian repeated his words, and Xiao Junxuanâs eyes grew brighter and brighter. Like his father, his expression was somewhat excited. But soon, Xiao Junxuanâs eyes towards Xiao Siqian changed a bit.
He stared intently at Xiao Siqian.
Xiao Siqian felt inexplicably unsettled by the stare, making his scalp tingle, as he asked, âBrother Xuan, whatâs wrong?â
Xiao Junxuan said very seriously, âIâm just trying to figure out how your brain works.â
Xiao Siqian,
âHow can you be so clever and business-minded?â Xiao Junxuan continued, âLast time you inspired me with the combine harvester. My dad and I decided to buy the combine harvester. Although the purpose of buying the harvester wasnât to make money, but for everyoneâs convenience, it still has a certain commercial value to it.
Now, you say that house prices will rise, and you analyze it so logically. Iâm starting to doubt, are you really only 18 years old? Or maybe youâre an old demon wearing an 18-year-old disguise?â
âPfft!â Xiao Wanshan couldnât help laughing at his sonâs words.
With Xiao Siqian, who was being stared at, feeling uneasy, listening to Xiao Junxuanâs last sentence made his face go dark.
He said somewhat dissatisfied, âBrother Xuan, how could I be an old demon?â Xiao Wanshan nodded and chimed in, âThatâs right, how could Xiao Quan be an old demon? Xuanâer, donât doubt someone elseâs intelligence just because you think your brain is not as clever and nimble as Xiao Quanâs.â
Xiao Junxuan, ââ¦â His brain was not less clever and nimble than this kidâs.
Then, Xiao Wanshan asked puzzledly, âXiao Quan, where did you learn all these things?â
When Xiao Siqian first came to the Xiao family, his wife and other family members had taken him to a bookstore to buy textbooks, wondering if they should send him to school.
But, the kid turned out to be really smart.
Xiao Siqian suddenly got a jolt in his heart.
Thatâs right, he was still playing the role of an amnesiac child.
The things he was saying now were truly suspicious.
Xiao Siqian explained, âMmm, I analyzed it from newspapers and news on television. â
Having heard that, Xiao Wanshan didnât doubt it and nodded, âOh, I see.â
Then, his tone changed to praise, âThis shows that you really have a great business mind. Xiao Quan, do you really not remember anything about your past?â
He stared sharply at Xiao Siqian with his piercing eyes, and then continued, âI donât know how you ended up on Red Peak Mountain, and how Xiao Bao carried you back. However, when you were saved, the clothes on you were of very high quality, clearly something ordinary people like us canât afford. Could it be that you have an unusual identity?â
After hearing Xiao Wanshanâs words, Xiao Siqianâs heart tightened.
He was afraid that Xiao Wanshan would kick him out because of his identity.
He felt comfortable and warm in this home, and he didnât want to leave for the time being.
He pleaded, âUncle, I really have amnesia and canât remember anything about my previous identity. Please, donât kick me out, okay?â The last sentence had a hint of pleading in it.
Xiao Wanshan was startled, and then said seriously, âXiao Quan, who said I would kick you out? Since the day you entered our home, youâve been a part of us, our family. We will always welcome you here and will never kick you out unless you want to leave yourself. Xiao Quan, itâs my fault for bringing up such a thing and making you overthink it. I apologize.â
He never expected Xiao Siqian to be so sensitive. Just because he casually mentioned the identity issue, Xiao Siqian already worried about being kicked out.
Sigh, what kind of experiences did this child have in his past?
Xiao Wanshan looked at Xiao Siqian with a mixture of pity and sympathy in his eyes.
Xiao Siqian, ââ¦â Why is my uncle looking at me with such eyes?
As a result, Xiao Junxuan turned his head and looked at him with the same
eyes.
Xiao Siqian,
âMmmâ¦â Xiao Wanshan laughed, âXiao Quan, do you want your brother Xuan to take you on a tour around the place?â
Xiao Siqian immediately refused, âNo need, uncle. Iâll just take a walk around by myself. Brother Xuan must be very busy.â
Would a deputy general manager of a company not be busy?
Xiao Wanshan didnât force it, and just nodded, âOkay, go ahead and explore on your own. If you need anything, just come to us.â
Xiao Siqian nodded, and then went out.
After Xiao Siqian left, Xiao Junxuan immediately became excited, âDad, Dad, we can buy a house!â
Xiao Wanshan glanced at him and said irritably, âCalm down, why are you so excited? Youâre an adult and you still canât control your emotions. How will you handle big things in the future?â
Xiao Junxuanâs face turned red as he defended himself, âI just get so excited when I think about the future rise in house prices.â
With the size of the company they ran, their father and son must have earned quite a bit of money.
After that, Xiao Junxuan said calmly, âDad, where should we buy the house if we want to buy one?â
Xiao Wanshan squinted his eyes and replied, âWe need to think carefully about that and do some investigations. However, for the time being, we still need to manage the current company well. The houses wonât run away for a while.â
Xiao Junxuan nodded, âDad, youâre right.â
But then, he asked doubtfully, âDad, do you really think Xiao Quan has lost his memory?â
âWhat are you doubting?â Xiao Wanshanâs sharp gaze focused on his son, âEven if he lost his memory or not, does it affect our relationship with him?â
ââ¦â Xiao Junxuan replied, âThereâs no effect!â
âWell, there you have it!â Xiao Wanshan said seriously, âNo matter if he has lost his memory or not, as long as heâs part of our family, heâs Xiao Siqian, your younger brother. In the future, donât doubt so much. Havenât you noticed how well your sister gets along with him? If he had any ill intentions, your sister would have already stopped caring about him.â
Xiao Junxuan nodded, âOh, I understand now!â
But then again, apart from his family, there wasnât anyone else his sister got along with. Now thereâs Xiao Siqian added to the list..
