143: Chapter 143 Godfather Teaches You to Practice Calligraphy

Ye Xiaoling's body trembled; she had no heart left for writing.

Before Ye Xiaoling could say anything, Chu Yuan said with a straight face, "Xiao Ling, what are you letting your mind wander about? Focus your energy and keep practicing."

The words on the tip of her tongue were pushed back by Chu Yuan's remark.

She had no choice but to helplessly follow her Godfather's instructions, forcing herself to perk up so as not to let down his good intentions.

Chu Yuan quickly helped up his precious daughter: "Xiao Ling, your stamina is lacking. You've only been at it for a short while, and you're already unsteady on your feet."

"In the future, when you have time, you can go to the gym upstairs to work out."

Ye Xiaoling nodded awkwardly: "I know. Xiao Ling will definitely listen to Godfather's instructions and exercise properly."

"Your mother should have the meal ready by now; let's go eat."

Bringing Ye Xiaoling downstairs, everything was indeed just as Chu Yuan had anticipated.

Su Mingyue had already prepared the meal and was carrying the last dish to the dining room, intending to call the two of them.

Chu Yuan would tell Ye Xiaoling that he possessed X-ray Vision and could observe Su Mingyue's every move at any time.

Otherwise, if he were suddenly caught by Su Mingyue, wouldn't that ruin his big plan?

"Xiao Ling, what did you learn with your Godfather upstairs just now?"

Su Mingyue asked subconsciously as she watched the father and daughter approach together.

Ye Xiaoling turned her head, fixing her gaze on Chu Yuan, her expression complex: "Godfather taught me calligraphy."

"That's great. Learning an extra skill is a good thing. You must learn well from your Godfather in the future," Su Mingyue said, looking pleasantly surprised.

"I know, Mom." Ye Xiaoling nodded in agreement.

Chu Yuan smiled with satisfaction on the side; he knew that Ye Xiaoling wouldn't say anything more.

For one, since he was her Godfather, Ye Xiaoling naturally wouldn't think in that direction.

Secondly, Ye Xiaoling, who lacked fatherly love, had finally obtained this mountain-like fatherly love; she was too busy cherishing it to ever destroy it herself.

Furthermore, Ye Xiaoling had always had an indescribable feeling toward Chu Yuan, one that even she herself didn't know whether it was reliance or something else.

During the meal, Chu Yuan and Su Mingyue chatted casually, and he didn't make any inappropriate moves.

He only picked food for Ye Xiaoling from time to time, and this heartwarming gesture moved her even more.

A smile instantly appeared on her face, which had originally been a bit downcast.

Su Mingyue saw this and also revealed a satisfied smile.

This father-daughter pair was truly a model pair.

Su Mingyue was genuinely content; Ye Xiaoling had a father, and she herself had Chu Yuan's help—what more could she ask for?

After the meal, the usually lively and active Ye Xiaoling rarely stayed in the living room and instead dashed back to her room.

"This child, she even said she'd never seen such a big TV in her life and wanted to watch it to her heart's content, yet she ran off so quickly."

Su Mingyue said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Perhaps it's because she vented her anger today and intends to hide away alone to enjoy that joy by herself."

"That's true. Xiao Ling has suffered a lot with me. Now, it's good; not only has she avenged the Ye family, but she has also finally tasted the sweetness after the bitterness."

Su Mingyue nodded in agreement.

As she spoke, she was nearly moved to tears.

"Alright, everything we do is for Xiao Ling."

"We still have to thank Young Master Chu. If it weren't for you, let alone avenging ourselves, we wouldn't even know how much more suffering we would have to endure."

These were Su Mingyue's heartfelt words; she was genuinely grateful to Chu Yuan.

"Mingyue, you're being too formal. Xiao Ling is my, Chu Yuan's, daughter. I will take good care of you two, and I won't let you suffer anymore."

Su Mingyue's face flushed.

Why did Chu Yuan's words sound like they had a deeper meaning?

Chu Yuan struck while the iron was hot and immediately brought over a bottle of red wine.

"Mingyue, let's have a toast—to your triumph today, and to me, Chu Yuan, finding such a wonderful goddaughter."

Su Mingyue hesitated.

Right now, Chu Yuan had given all the servants the day off. Being alone with a man, if she drank too much and something unexpected happened, wouldn't she regret it too late?

Without waiting for Su Mingyue to refuse, Chu Yuan poured drinks for both of them.

"Mingyue, let's have a drink."

Chu Yuan raised his glass and said.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Mingyue agreed.

Chu Yuan was wealthy and powerful; he could have any woman he wanted. How could he possibly be interested in an "old woman" like her who had a child?

It was precisely because of this thought that Su Mingyue let go of her hesitation.

Once the first drink was done, the rest was much simpler.

Today was originally a happy occasion, and with Chu Yuan's persuasion, the fond-of-drinking Su Mingyue felt her whole body heating up, her head spinning, and she eventually passed out drunk on the spot.

"Young Master, this woman has had too much to drink and is completely drunk."

Zuo Shishi suddenly appeared behind Chu Yuan and said.

"If she's drunk, she's drunk. Send her to rest."

Rest?

Zuo Shishi was stunned; this was not her Young Master's character.

"Young Master, are you not planning to…?"

Zuo Shishi sized up Chu Yuan with a puzzled look.

She didn't believe for a second that her Young Master would be so kind as to just let Su Mingyue go like this.

Chu Yuan knew exactly what Zuo Shishi was thinking and said with a speechless expression.

"Is your Young Master really so desperate? Do you think I, this Young Master, would engage in such low-class behavior as taking advantage of a drunk woman?"

Situations of taking advantage of a drunk woman usually appeared in plot segments where Protagonists had just debuted and were taking down beautiful CEOs.

If Chu Yuan really just wanted to have some fun, he could have just used force.

It was just one woman, and a married woman at that; he, Chu Yuan, hadn't exactly never seen a woman before.

Chu Yuan admitted that Su Mingyue indeed possessed a charm different from ordinary people, but not to the extent that it would make him lose himself to such a degree.

Of course, there was another reason.

With Su Mingyue in such a drunken state, Chu Yuan was also worried that if he were halfway through, she would suddenly vomit, ruining his mood.
