Transmigrating as the Villain Father, Forcing the Protagonist's Mother to Have Children-Chapter 92
Chapter 92
Chen Dong had just made it halfway when he saw Li Yunshu say something to a distinguished-looking man.
Then, that man stormed toward them.
Chen Dong’s expression changed instantly.
He quickly turned around and stepped in front of Xu Fangfei.
“W-What do you want? Let’s talk this out!”
Xu Hao ignored him and, without hesitation, swung his hand.
Slap!
Chen Dong spun in place several times before collapsing onto the ground.
Li Yunshu froze in shock, a strange feeling stirring inside her.
Just moments ago, this guy had been ready to slap her.
Xu Hao had promised to stand up for her, and now, he had delivered with a single slap.
She never imagined that a billionaire CEO like Xu Hao could be so… ruthless.
Yet, rather than feeling afraid, warmth spread through her chest.
Because this time, someone was protecting her.

Xu Hao, still holding Li Yunshu’s hand, stopped in front of Xu Fangfei. His voice turned icy.
“Why are you bullying Yunshu?”
“X-Xu… President Xu…”
Xu Fangfei almost blurted out “Daddy” in panic but bit her tongue just in time.
She lowered her head, looking like a scolded schoolgirl.
“I don’t care about whatever grudge you had before. Yunshu is my employee now. If I ever find out you’re causing trouble for her again, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“U-Understood. I won’t do it again!” Xu Fangfei quickly nodded.
“Then apologize to Yunshu. If she doesn’t forgive you, I won’t let you off.”
Xu Hao’s face remained expressionless.
In front of him, Xu Fangfei turned into a docile little lamb.
She bent at the waist and bowed to Li Yunshu.
“Li Yunshu, I’m sorry. I was wrong before. I won’t bother you again. Please forgive me this once.”
Li Yunshu’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Xu Fangfei—so arrogant, so proud, always flaunting her designer clothes and luxury cars—was now bowing before her?
She had always looked down on her, yet now, she was apologizing?
This felt unreal.
Li Yunshu glanced at Xu Hao, seeking guidance.
[Ding… Li Yunshu is in shock. Emotion Value +567…]
Xu Hao gave her a reassuring smile.
“It’s up to you. If you don’t want to forgive her, you can slap her back.”
Li Yunshu was too kind-hearted to resort to violence.
“Forget it. Let’s pretend this never happened. Just don’t do it again.”
Xu Fangfei cast a hopeful glance at Xu Hao.
Xu Hao frowned.
“Why are you looking at me? Yunshu is kind enough to let you go. Now scram.”
Xu Fangfei, as if granted amnesty, hurried away without another word.
She didn’t even spare a glance at Chen Dong, who was still lying on the ground.
It took Chen Dong a while to recover from the slap.
By the time he looked up, his goddess was gone.
Panicked, he scrambled up and rushed after her.
Now, only Xu Hao and Li Yunshu remained.
Still dazed, Li Yunshu looked up at him, her heart filled with gratitude.
“President Xu, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been in serious trouble today…”
“No need to thank me. You’re my employee. It’s my job as your boss to protect you.”
The warmth in his voice made Li Yunshu’s heart skip a beat.
“By the way, Yunshu, let’s exchange contact info.”
Xu Hao took out his phone, his expression calm.
“If you ever run into trouble again, just call me directly.”
“O-Okay!”
Li Yunshu scrambled to take out her phone.
After adding him, she couldn’t contain her excitement.
She now had the personal contact of the legendary CEO of Xu Group.
But more importantly—
Xu Hao gave her his number because he wanted to protect her.
What kind of angelic boss was this?
“President Xu, thank you… You’re really kind…”
Her eyes welled up with emotion.
Aside from her parents, he was the first person to be so good to her.
Xu Hao chuckled and ruffled her hair.
“Don’t keep calling me President Xu. My daughter is about your age. Just call me Uncle.”
“Huh? But… that’s not appropriate.”
Li Yunshu was stunned, shaking her head frantically.
This was the CEO of a billion-dollar corporation!
How could she call him Uncle?
Xu Hao’s face darkened slightly, pretending to be displeased.
“Why not? In public, call me President Xu. In private, just call me Uncle.”
“Even Qingge calls me that.”
“Qingge?”
Li Yunshu blinked.
“She’s in the company too—currently the finance manager. Her full name is Xia Qingge.”
“Xia Qingge calls him ‘Uncle’ too?”
Li Yunshu’s eyes lit up.
At work, Xia Qingge was the person she was closest to.
Knowing that even she addressed Xu Hao this way made it feel a little less strange.
She hesitated, then softly said—
“Uncle Xu…”
Xu Hao raised an eyebrow.
“You know Qingge?”
“Mhm!”
Li Yunshu nodded enthusiastically, her eyes filled with gratitude.
“I was so clueless when I first joined the company. Qingge taught me everything!”
“That’s great. You two are close in age and have common interests. Get along well.”
Deep down, Xu Hao added another thought—
It would be best if they became best friends.
That way, things would get even more interesting.
Lunchtime
At a busy intersection, Xu Fangfei stood waiting, anxiously glancing around.
Beside her, a young man with a swollen, red handprint on his face hovered nervously.
“Fangfei, what do you want to eat? How about McDonald’s? My treat!”
Xu Fangfei sighed in annoyance.
“I’m eating with my dad later.”
“Oh? With your uncle? I can come too, right? I won’t be a bother!”
Chen Dong looked hopeful.
Xu Fangfei’s expression darkened.
“Are you stupid? I already said this has nothing to do with you. Get lost. Why are you still following me?”
Chen Dong stiffened, his face turning red with embarrassment.
“Fangfei, you know how I feel about you. I like—”
“How many times do I have to say it? It’s impossible between us. Give it up already!”
“Fangfei, just one chance! I swear I’ll treat you well—”
“Not happening.”
Xu Fangfei rejected Chen Dong without hesitation, making his heart clench in pain, almost suffocating him.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but then he saw Xu Fangfei’s expression change. She had spotted someone and quickly ran across the street toward a luxury car.
Chen Dong instinctively wanted to follow, but after taking just a few steps, he froze in place, his face blank with shock.
He watched as Xu Fangfei got into the car in a hurry. Through the slightly blurred car window, he could vaguely see the two people inside... kissing.
Crack.
Chen Dong felt his heart shatter.
So when Xu Fangfei said “Daddy,” she wasn’t talking about her actual father—it was a term of endearment.
Just how sweet and intimate did they have to be for her to call him that?
The goddess he had placed on a pedestal was nothing more than someone else’s plaything.
The harsh reality hit him like a sledgehammer, making his vision go dark.
Why?
Why did she reach out to him just as he was finally ready to move on and start a new life?
Why did she give him hope, only to crush him completely?
All that remained was an overwhelming sense of despair.
Inside the car—
Xu Fangfei only let go of Xu Hao when she was nearly out of breath.
“Daddy… how was my performance this morning?”
So it turned out—her confrontation with Li Yunshu earlier that day had all been an act.
It was just a setup to help Xu Hao win over Li Yunshu.
Xu Hao stroked her ponytail and chuckled.
“Not bad. What do you want to eat? I’ll take you wherever you want as a reward.”
Xu Fangfei’s eyes flickered, and after a moment’s hesitation, she shyly glanced at him.
“Let’s have KFC…”
“KFC? That’s not exactly filling,” Xu Hao said, puzzled.
“If it’s not enough, we can eat multiple times.”
Xu Hao sighed in amusement.
Good grief, she really was a textbook villainess.
She knew how to play the game.
Maybe keeping her around wouldn’t be such a bad idea.
Not only was she a great accomplice, but she was fun—always coming up with new tricks.
Her ability to learn quickly was also impressive.
She had definitely been practicing.
By evening—
The golden glow of the setting sun bathed the city, painting the sky in hues of crimson.
The bustling streets were filled with people.
It was peak dinner time, and every restaurant was packed.
Li Xiao walked along the street, glancing around in search of a good place to eat.
As the sidekick of the antagonist, Chu Xiaotian, he was usually stuck following him around.
But today, Chu Xiaotian had gone to his father’s company for business training.
Li Xiao took the opportunity to sneak away.
Following that idiot around all day was making him lose brain cells.
As he was scanning the restaurants, he suddenly heard a commotion up ahead.
Curious, he walked toward the source of the noise.
In front of a Western restaurant stood a stunningly beautiful, elegantly dressed woman with a regal aura.
Just by standing there, she commanded a 100% return rate of glances.
The crowd murmured in awe.
“She’s gorgeous! So classy—I thought a celebrity had come to town.”
“Are you kidding? Show me a single actress in the industry who looks as good as her.”
“She’s so beautiful… I wonder if she has a boyfriend. I’m so jealous.”
“If I had a girlfriend like her, I wouldn’t leave the house. I’d be willing to shave 20 years off my life just to have her.”
“Hah! Look at yourself in the mirror first. You really think someone like her would date you? Go home and dream.”
Ignoring the chatter, Li Xiao’s pupils contracted slightly when he got a good look at the woman.
He recognized her.
Xiao Wanling—the stunning landlady of the protagonist, Zheng Feifan.
After transmigrating into this world, he had done his research on the female leads.
He had even visited the protagonist’s apartment complex once and had seen Xiao Wanling demanding rent from Zheng Feifan.
Of course, the protagonist had refused to pay.
Li Xiao knew the guy well—
He acted like a righteous hero, but deep down, he was scheming.
He was obviously using unpaid rent as an excuse to interact more with the female lead.
Honestly, what was wrong with these women?
If he didn’t pay rent, they should just kick him out.
Why did they always end up tangled in drama with him instead?
Of course, that was just his personal complaint.
He wasn’t stupid enough to pick a fight with the protagonist.
Not yet, at least.
Right now, he didn’t have the power.
For now, he would just continue playing his role as the villain’s sidekick.
Once he became strong enough, he would kill the protagonist and take his place.
There was no rush—
After all, the protagonist never actually ended up with any of the female leads.
He had plenty of time.
That day, after just one glance, he had left.
But he never expected to run into the gorgeous landlady again here.
This woman was a little rich lady in the novel.
Not only did she inherit tens of millions from her parents, but she also owned ten properties, worth another several tens of millions.
If he could win her over and live off her wealth…
With the information he had, he could easily multiply her millions by hundreds or even thousands of times.
Li Xiao’s heartbeat quickened. He glanced around.
Good. No sign of the protagonist, Zheng Feifan.
This was his chance to make a move. Maybe he could steal the heroine while the protagonist was away?
He flipped his hair, flashed his most charming smile, and strode toward Xiao Wanling.
“Excuse me, are you Landlady Xiao?”
Standing in front of her, Li Xiao asked politely.
He wasn’t one of those brainless protagonists—
The kind who thought that having a bit of strength made them invincible, looking down on everyone, acting like they owned the world, assuming every beautiful woman would fall for them.
That was just plain stupidity.
“You are…?”
Xiao Wanling looked up at the unfamiliar man standing before her, puzzled.
“I saw your listing on the rental site.”
Li Xiao smiled politely.
“I’m looking to move and thought your properties seemed nice. When would be a good time to take a look?”
Now this was how you properly strike up a conversation.
Unlike those guys who ran up to a woman just because she was pretty and asked for her number outright—
Would she actually give it to them?
Especially a female lead?
Not a chance.
That was where his insider knowledge gave him an advantage.
Xiao Wanling’s expression cleared.
So he was looking for a rental.
After thinking for a moment, she apologized.
“Sorry, I don’t plan to rent out any properties right now. You should check out other listings.”
Renting out homes was just a hobby for her—something to keep her life interesting.
But now that she spent every day with Xu Hao, her life couldn’t be more fulfilling.
There was no need for distractions.
She’d rather use that time to learn more about tea ceremonies from Xu Hao.
Li Xiao’s smile stiffened.
What the hell?
Did he do something wrong?
His plan was simple—
Use the rental as an excuse to talk to her. Obviously, this late at night, she wouldn’t actually take him to see an apartment.
That would give him the perfect opportunity to exchange contact information.
Then, using his knowledge of her personality, he could slowly work his way into her life…
But what the hell was this?
Why wasn’t she renting anymore?
In the novel, it was clearly stated that she loved being a landlady to make her life more interesting.
Once again, the storyline had changed.
Li Xiao felt his mind start to crack but quickly adjusted his expression.
With another friendly smile, he tried again.
“Then could I at least get your contact information? If I can’t find a suitable place, I’d rather wait for one of yours to open up.
Who knows? You might decide to rent again someday.”
The moment he mentioned exchanging numbers, Xiao Wanling’s guard went up. She frowned.
“Sorry, but you should look elsewhere. I won’t be renting out my properties ever again.”
From now on, she was going to spend every day with Uncle Xu.
Why would she bother with something as trivial as renting apartments?
Li Xiao’s mouth twitched. He was about to say something when—
She completely ignored him.
Her face suddenly lit up with a smile as she turned and walked toward someone else.
Li Xiao frowned.
That was the first time he had seen this heroine smile.
Following her gaze, his eyes narrowed.
The man approaching was none other than Xu Hao.
“Uncle Xu! What took you so long?”
“Traffic was bad. Sorry for the wait. Let’s go.”
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked into the Western restaurant.
They treated Li Xiao like he was invisible.
Xu Hao?
Him again?
Li Xiao clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms.
Back at the Chu family estate, this bastard had bullied the stunningly beautiful sister-in-law, Yao Xinrui.
Now he was getting close to another female lead?
And from the looks of it, they seemed pretty intimate.
That couldn’t be a coincidence.
Both times the storyline changed, Xu Hao was involved…
