Transmigrating as the Villain Father, Forcing the Protagonist's Mother to Have Children-Chapter 122
Chapter 122
With a sharp “click,” the private room door swung open.
Xu Fangfei had suddenly become stunningly beautiful, drawing the attention of the students, whether intentionally or not.
She had just said she was going to the restroom, and now she was back.
All eyes turned toward the doorway.
To their surprise—
Xu Fangfei had indeed returned.
But she wasn’t alone.
Two middle-aged men followed closely behind her.
One of them was exceptionally handsome, exuding a natural charm—the kind of man who could be called a dashing gentleman.
What was strange was that the usually proud Xu Fangfei now appeared unusually obedient...
Who were these two men?
Why had she brought them to their gathering?
As the organizer of the reunion, Ye Tao had no choice but to step forward and handle the unexpected situation.
He recognized one of the middle-aged men—the hotel’s lobby manager.
It was the same person who had assisted him when he booked the private room.
Quickly, he stepped up to greet him.
“Manager Xiao, is there something wrong? We’re in the middle of a class reunion. If there’s an issue, you can discuss it with me directly...”
However—
Manager Xiao merely cast him a cold glance and then stood aside, silent.
Xu Hao, who had been perfectly fine moments ago, suddenly turned grim the moment he saw the young girl.
He looked furious.
Not wanting to provoke this man, Manager Xiao wisely kept his mouth shut and decided to wait and see how things unfolded.
Ye Tao noticed the sharp change in his expression and grew puzzled.
Who was this distinguished-looking gentleman?
Before he could ask, Xu Hao strode toward a table.
At that moment, Li Yunshu sat with her head down, lost in self-doubt.
She was so wrapped up in her emotions that she hadn’t even noticed the commotion around her.
“Yunshu...”
The sudden sound of Xu Hao’s familiar voice startled her.
She thought she had misheard.
Looking up in confusion, she was stunned to see Uncle Xu standing before her, smiling warmly.
In an instant, a powerful sense of security enveloped her.
His smile was especially soothing—
Like a ray of light piercing through the darkness just as she was about to fall into the abyss, illuminating her entire world.
She felt an overwhelming urge to cry.
But with so many people watching, she forced down her emotions and greeted him.
“Uncle Xu.”
Then, puzzled, she asked, “Uncle Xu, why are you here?”
“I was dining nearby. When I came upstairs, I noticed that girl acting strangely. That’s when I found out you were here...”
“You don’t look okay. Did they bully you?”
Hearing the word “bully,”
Li Yunshu pressed her lips together and shook her head.
“No.”
The sudden arrival of a handsome and unfamiliar middle-aged man—one who seemed to know their school’s campus beauty—instantly piqued the students’ curiosity.
“Who is he? Can’t he see we’re in the middle of a meal? Doesn’t he know it’s rude to interrupt?”
“He actually knows Li Yunshu! And she called him ‘Uncle’? Is he a relative?”
“He’s so handsome and charismatic... He’s exactly my type of mature man!”
“Looks like... he’s here to back Li Yunshu up. Those girls at her table were mocking her earlier—I wonder if things are about to get ugly.”
“You’re overthinking it. They were just throwing shade with words, not actually fighting. At most, it was verbal teasing...”
Seeing the class reunion being disrupted, Ye Tao’s expression darkened.
He immediately prepared to step up and kick Xu Hao out.
Even if he was Li Yunshu’s uncle, that didn’t mean he could interrupt their gathering.
Ye Tao had spent millions organizing this reunion—
Not only had he failed to win over Li Yunshu, but he had also embarrassed himself while trying to pursue Xu Fangfei.
He was already fuming.
Now that this man had barged in, Ye Tao saw the perfect target to unleash his frustration.
But just as he took a few steps forward—
A voice behind him made his entire body freeze.
“I advise you not to act recklessly. That’s Xu Hao, president of the Xu Group. You can’t afford to offend him...”
Xu Fangfei spoke up.
Those close enough to hear her words were instantly stunned.
“What? He—he—he’s actually Xu Hao? The founder of the Xu Group? President Xu?”
One student gaped in shock, blurting out the question.
The moment those words left his mouth, the entire room fell into chaos.
“Holy crap??? That’s the self-made tycoon? I never thought I’d meet my idol here today!”
“I’ve heard that President Xu is a refined and kind person, but I never imagined he’d personally stand up for his employees. Li Yunshu must have just recently joined his company, right?”
“President Xu found out she was being bullied and came here himself to back her up...”
“He’s amazing. I swear, if I had such a thoughtful boss, I wouldn’t even complain about a 996 schedule—I’d go straight to a 007 grind!”
“I actually applied to Xu Group before. I’ve seen President Xu’s photos, but in person, he looks way younger! No wonder I didn’t recognize him...”
Now that they knew Xu Hao’s true identity, the students were starstruck.
Some even hesitated, itching to go up and introduce themselves—
Maybe, if they made a good impression, they could land a job at his company.
Xu Hao, however, ignored their chatter and kept his gaze fixed on Li Yunshu.
“You still say nothing happened? Look at you—your little pearls are about to fall.”
His smile faded.
Then, he turned toward Xu Fangfei, who was standing at the door, and gestured for her to come over.
Xu Fangfei hesitated but eventually stepped forward cautiously.
“I warned you not to bully Yunshu,” Xu Hao said, his tone severe. “Or you’d have to deal with me. Seems like you didn’t take my words to heart.”
A powerful aura of authority swept through the room, making the young students, who had just stepped into society, too afraid to even breathe.
Xu Fangfei couldn’t help but tremble.
Not out of fear, but excitement.
Her father looked unbelievably handsome when he was serious.
She had the sudden urge to throw herself into his arms and seek comfort.
But she suppressed the thought and instead put on a fearful expression.
“President Xu, it wasn’t me… I didn’t even say a single word to Li Yunshu!” she quickly explained.
Then, without hesitation, she pointed at the six girls at the table, completely betraying them.
“It was them! They kept making snide remarks and saying horrible things…”
After selling out her so-called friends, she anxiously turned to Li Yunshu.
“Li Yunshu, say something! It was them making those sarcastic remarks—I didn’t say anything!”
Xu Hao turned to Li Yunshu, his gaze questioning.
She nodded.
Xu Hao then shifted his sharp gaze toward the six girls.
At that moment, they were completely stunned.
They had followed Xu Fangfei’s lead, mocking and suppressing Li Yunshu—
Only to be thrown under the bus the very next moment.
Had they known offending Li Yunshu would bring down someone as powerful as Xu Hao,
they would never have taken Xu Fangfei’s 100,000 yuan to go against her…
Xu Hao’s commanding gaze swept over them, making them tremble.
They almost blurted out that Xu Fangfei was the mastermind—
But in the end, they held back.
They had already offended Li Yunshu.
If they exposed Xu Fangfei now, they would have two enemies, and they’d never get that 100,000 yuan.
They decided to endure a little longer.
If Xu Hao really pressed them, then they would expose Xu Fangfei as a last resort.
“So, you’re the ones who bullied Yunshu?”
“She’s kind and doesn’t hold grudges, so you think you can just push her around?”
“Tell me, why? If you don’t give me a reason, I won’t punish you—”
“But I will have a talk with your parents.”
The six girls turned pale and started shaking.
Xu Hao’s words had terrified them to the core.
Although they had graduated from college, they had little social experience.
Hearing that their actions might reach their parents made them panic.
Some of them were already considering exposing Xu Fangfei in hopes of lessening Xu Hao’s anger.
Li Yunshu, being kind-hearted, was startled when she heard Xu Hao mention involving their parents.
To her, this wasn’t even a big deal.
Blowing it up like this wouldn’t be good for anyone.
Besides, she didn’t want to trouble Uncle Xu.
He managed thousands of employees and was already incredibly busy.
She couldn’t let him waste his time on such a trivial matter.
Her heart was filled with warmth.
Uncle Xu was doing all of this for her.
He was even willing to disrupt his work just to stand up for her.
But she didn’t want to burden him.
“Uncle Xu, forget it. I’m fine…”
Xu Hao frowned.
“You really don’t want to pursue this? They bullied you just now, and I heard they treated you the same way in school. That’s practically campus bullying.”
“It’s okay. That’s all in the past.”
Li Yunshu shook her head.
Honestly, if it weren’t for the fact that Xu Hao had talked about firing her yesterday, she wouldn’t have even cared about what these classmates said.
The real reason she was feeling down was the fear of losing her job.
Seeing that such a powerful man was willing to seek justice for Li Yunshu,
only for her to be so magnanimous and let it go,
her classmates looked at her with newfound respect.
“I heard what those girls said earlier—it was awful. If it were me, I would’ve definitely asked President Xu to teach them a lesson.”
“That’s why you can’t compare to her. She repays evil with kindness… I never knew Li Yunshu was so kind-hearted.”
“I admit I misjudged her. She wasn’t distant because she was arrogant—she’s just not great at socializing. We completely misunderstood her.”
“I misunderstood her too. I let these girls’ gossip influence my opinion of her.”
The students whispered among themselves, moved by Li Yunshu’s kindness.
Even the six girls looked surprised.
They had been convinced they were doomed—
Yet the one who spoke up for them was the very girl they had bullied throughout college.
Xu Hao glanced at them coldly.
“You heard her. Since Yunshu is willing to let it go, I won’t speak to your parents.”
“But if this happens again…”
The six girls let out a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, President Xu…”
“President Xu is truly generous.”
“President Xu, we promise it won’t happen again…”
Xu Hao remained expressionless.
“The one you should be thanking isn’t me.”
The six girls finally realized and immediately turned to Li Yunshu.
“Yunshu, I’m sorry. I was jealous of how pretty you were, so I talked badly about you. Please forgive me this once—I won’t do it again.”
“I’m sorry, Yunshu. I shouldn’t have said those things about you before.”
“Thank you for speaking up for us. If anyone bullies you in the future, I’ll help you get back at them…”
As Li Yunshu listened to her former bullies apologize and thank her one after another, she felt dazed.
The admiring gazes from the other students only added to her surreal feeling.
If this had been in the past, she would never have imagined it.
She had never had any grudges against these classmates and had always wanted to get along.
Yet, in four years of college, nothing had changed.
But now, after just one reunion dinner, everything was resolved.
And all of it—
Was because of Uncle Xu standing before her.
A wave of indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
“Yunshu, do you want to stay and continue the reunion?” Xu Hao asked.
She shook her head.
Even though her classmates had changed their attitude toward her, she still felt a lingering unease.
She didn’t want to stay in a place that had once pushed her to the brink of despair.
“Uncle Xu, I’ll go with you…”
As they stepped out of the private room, Xu Hao asked,
“You barely ate just now. Want to grab something with me?”
Only then did she remember that Xu Hao had originally come here for a meal—
He had just happened to run into her.
She wasn’t really hungry.
But she couldn’t let Uncle Xu go hungry.
“I’ll join you, Uncle Xu.”
Led by Manager Xiao, they entered an opulent private dining room.
Meanwhile, long after Xu Hao and Li Yunshu had left, murmurs spread through the reunion banquet.
Some admired Li Yunshu’s kindness and generosity.
More people, however, marveled at how well Xu Hao took care of his employees…
Some even discussed working their way up in their current companies just to later jump ship to Xu Corporation.
Though the reunion wasn’t over, the atmosphere had shifted.
People continued drinking and chatting.
The host, Ye Tao, turned to Xu Fangfei and invited her.
“Fangfei, we’re heading to karaoke later—there’ll be all sorts of activities.”
“Not interested. I have something else to do. You guys enjoy.”
Xu Fangfei’s face remained cold as she picked up her bag and strode out.
She had arranged this whole gathering for one reason—
To give her wonderful Daddy Xu Hao the opportunity to win over Li Yunshu.
Now that the goal was accomplished, there was no reason for her to stay.
Karaoke?
That was nothing compared to going home and playing with Daddy Xu in all sorts of ways.
With her departure—
Two of the most beautiful women at the gathering were gone.
Ye Tao was dumbfounded.
This whole reunion had been Xu Fangfei’s idea.
He had only agreed to host it because she mentioned that Li Yunshu would be attending.
After spending millions, he gained nothing.
And with both Li Yunshu and Xu Fangfei gone—
The gathering lost its spark.
Once dinner ended, everyone dispersed.
As they stepped out of the hotel, many were still discussing what had happened in the private room.
“Li Yunshu has caught President Xu’s attention. I have a strong feeling she’s going to become someone we all look up to in the future…”
“No kidding. I’m so jealous. If only I could gain President Xu’s favor too.”
A group of students chatted as they walked.
Their words reached the ears of a man standing not far away—
Li Xiao, his face filled with exhaustion and turmoil.
His body jolted.
He rushed forward and grabbed a classmate’s arm.
The student winced in pain and was about to lash out.
But when he saw Li Xiao’s bloodshot eyes and twisted expression—
He backed down.
“What did you just say? What’s her name?”
Li Xiao had vaguely heard the name “Li Yunshu.”
But he wasn’t sure.
“Li Yunshu. She’s our classmate. We just had a reunion. Why… what’s wrong?”
The student’s voice trembled slightly.
“And that ‘President Xu’ she was with—what’s his full name?”
A cold chill ran through Li Xiao’s heart.
The name was the same.
And she was a school beauty.
There was no doubt—it was his sister.
He had overheard that his sister had been taken away by this ‘President Xu.’
A terrifying thought formed in his mind.
His eyes darkened dangerously.
“President Xu… he’s Xu Hao, the CEO of Xu Corporation.”
Whoosh!
Li Xiao immediately let go of the student’s shoulder—
And sprinted toward the hotel.
At the same time—
Inside the luxurious private room—
Xu Hao was…
Freely painting on the blank canvas that was Li Yunshu.
