Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1431: Getting Through the Call

After all, Xu Group was created by him single-handedly. Now, Xu Long started to feel hopeful. Once this kid joins Xu Group, those old folks won’t be able to stir up trouble.

Meanwhile, Uncle Li was already feeling helpless. What’s this young master up to? He won’t answer the phone, and it’s already been more than twenty calls, but the young lady is looking more and more upset.

"Alright, there’s no need to dial anymore. He probably doesn’t know it’s us. Maybe the kid is still working overtime. We’ll call back when we have some time. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll go back to the country to take a look. No matter what, I absolutely won’t let my son be at a disadvantage now that Xiao Group has recognized Su Zining."

Wang Cuixia spoke with particular determination, and Uncle Li nodded too. The young master had faced hardship since childhood. This time, no matter what, even if it’s admiring his old life, he won’t let the young master be wronged.

"The young master was meant to live a life of luxury, but who knows why he has faced such difficulties. But don’t worry, young lady, the young master has fortune on his side; he’ll be fine."

Wang Cuixia nodded perfunctorily, thinking if the child were really fine, he wouldn’t be urgently seeking her out. Unfortunately, the child encountered issues, and she couldn’t guide him.

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard the phone on the table ringing loudly. Wang Cuixia immediately grabbed the phone upon seeing it was Xu Ke’s number. She was thrilled. How was it possible her son had already called?

Her hands trembled as she pressed the answer button with difficulty, feeling incredulous.

Before she spoke, she heard Xu Ke’s voice on the other end, and tears streamed down from Wang Cuixia’s eyes.

"Mom, are you abroad? I didn’t recognize your number just now, so I didn’t answer. Old Man Xu told me he found you. Do you have time to come back to the country? I really need you now."

Hearing Xu Ke’s voice, Wang Cuixia couldn’t control her emotions. It had been a long time since she last saw her son, and hearing his voice now felt so distant.

If Uncle Li hadn’t nudged Wang Cuixia, she might not have reacted yet. Xu Ke awaited a response from Wang Cuixia for a while, and his heart sank. Could it be Wang Cuixia was intentionally doing this?

"Mom, there’s a misunderstanding in this matter. I hope you can return home once. Also, I went to Taohua Village to find you, but I didn’t see you."

Hearing that her son went to Taohua Village to find her, Wang Cuixia’s emotions became even more intense. She wished she had waited a little longer for her son. She left too soon.

"Child, Mom’s here. I’m listening to you now. I’ve heard from the old man that you’re doing well in the country, and my son has shown great promise. However, you should avoid contact with the old man; there’s no one good in Xu Family. Had they been good, we wouldn’t have suffered all these years."

Wang Cuixia worried her son might have too much contact with Old Man Xu, so she repeatedly warned him. Xu Ke frowned; did Mom really dislike Xu Family members that much?

If that were the case, contacting Xu Long any further might hurt his mom’s feelings.

"Let’s talk about this later. I won’t have much contact for now. But when will you come to Changnan to try? I’ll come to pick you up when you arrive, and remember to stay safe—never trust Su Zining."

After all, someone like Su Zining, who stops at nothing for wealth, might harm Mom, so Xu Ke advised repeatedly.

Wang Cuixia surely understood that someone like Su Zining desired wealth above all. If her son blocked Su Zining’s path, he might even encounter danger.

"Alright, stop advising me, but you must be careful yourself. I only have partial understanding of your situation. You need to explain it thoroughly so I can prepare. After all, you’re my son; who else would I plan for?"

Hearing Wang Cuixia’s words reassured Xu Ke. Luckily, Mom supported him. Otherwise, if Wang Cuixia supported Su Zining, no matter how he requested, if Wang Cuixia left abruptly, there’d be no place to argue.

Xu Ke carefully explained everything, and Wang Cuixia and Uncle Li felt deeply moved. They didn’t expect that, in their sudden departure, someone found to replace Xu Ke would marry Xiao Family’s eldest daughter.

This way, Xu Ke could live freely without Xiao Zhen’s pursuit. Yet, even though he reached Changnan City by chance, he still joined Xiao Group. These two kids indeed seemed destined; if she really tried to separate them, it would seem wrong.

Huang Cuihua knew too well the pain of being separated, a feeling that remained in the heart. Though over the years, Wang Cuixia had tried to forget Xu Hua, she couldn’t hate him despite her loathing for Old Man Xu.

"Child, rest assured. In this life, Mom might not have found happiness, but Mom definitely won’t let my son regret for life. No matter what, Mom will surely show up on time, so don’t worry."

"And without my consent, don’t visit Old Man Xu again. Xu Group is too large for you to handle now. They’re putting you on the burner by trying to give you Xu Group. It’s beyond your handling. Plus, your father probably doesn’t have the desire to manage Xu Group now."

Although Xu Ke wanted to look at Xu Group, since Mom said so, surely Xu Group wasn’t acceptable for him currently. Besides, if he took over now, it’d be a hot potato.

"Alright, I have some things here, and a call is coming in. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. We can call another day. I’ve always used this number."

Wang Cuixia heard her son had matters to attend to. Though it was unfortunate not to chat longer, at least she found him, which was the best news.

Ending the call, Uncle Li was especially touched: "Though Old Man Xu separated you and Xu Hua in your youth, at least he did a good deed this time, reuniting you and the young master. And the young master is doing well; it’s entirely his fortune. This lifetime, I’ve completed my mission."

Wang Cuixia sighed. Uncle Li had stayed with their family for a lifetime, and was considered family.
