Actually, neither Yang Hao nor the current Xu Weiguo had expected what was about to unfold.
Just as they had started sipping tea, preparing to have a heart-to-heart talk,
Xu Bingbing, having composed herself, was standing barefoot at the corner of the upstairs corridor, eavesdropping on their conversation.
When she heard Yang Hao call her father 'Dad,'
Xu Bingbing's heart was truly a maelstrom of emotions.
There was the warmth of a father's affection for his daughter,
the loving responsibility Yang Hao felt for her,
and the reconciliation between the two men, now father and son-in-law by marriage.
Xu Bingbing knew
that this day, this night, would be an unforgettable memory for the rest of her life.
Seeing the two men begin to discuss business again, Xu Bingbing did not interrupt, instead turning to quietly leave, allowing them ample space and time to talk about matters that were strictly men's talk.
.....
"What?"
