Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage

Chapter 485: Chapter 486: Big Shot

Xia Yangyang was absolutely startled.

The person in front of her was such a shockingly prominent figure.

And she had casually acknowledged him as her foster father.

Xia Yangyang finally comprehended.

Why she was initially cornered by a group of hooligans.

Even though they clearly had the upper hand, they suddenly became as terrified as if they had seen a ghost.

Immensely horrified.

It turned out to be the string of Bodhi beads.

When Monkey slashed her arm with a knife, it instantly cut the thread on which the Bodhi bracelet was strung.

The beads scattered all over the place.

Seeing the string of beads, Monkey was suddenly terrified.

They recognized the beads as Master Gao’s personal item.

No wonder later when Monkey and his gang turned themselves in, despite being wounded all over, none dared to say who had actually retaliated.

So, this was the reason.

Xia Yangyang was still quite shocked.

Suddenly remembering the first time she met the old Gao, he was skillfully making noodles in the noodle shop.

How could such a person be a powerful figure in the underworld?

Seeing Xia Yangyang in a state of shock and unable to regain her composure,

Master Gao chuckled lightly: “Am I so notorious that I scared you?”

Xia Yangyang hastily shook her head: “I just feel, just feel…”

In fact, Xia Yangyang was genuinely scared.

Because rumors portray Gao Huizhi as a ruthless and deadly fiend.

“Just feel that you and I are from two different worlds?”

Xia Yangyang reflexively nodded her head.

Yes, she never knew what the legendary dark empire was truly like.

Her impression of those people was based solely on Hong Kong dramas.

A gang hacking their way through from Tsim Sha Tsui to Causeway Bay.

But Master Gao’s image was drastically different from those people.

He was always smiling faintly, dressed in a Zhongshan suit,

Even exuding a refined demeanor, like a piece of jade polished and mellowed by time.

Master Gao chuckled: “Don’t worry, even if I’m not a good person, I wouldn’t harm my child. You’re my adopted daughter; I’ll regard you as my own in the future.”

Xia Yangyang was still in a daze: “Why did you choose me?”

Master Gao puzzled: “What do you mean?”

“Why would someone like you take a liking to me? I’ve heard that your foster sons and daughters each dominate a territory, but me… I have no talent at all.”

Master Gao burst into hearty laughter: “They’re all adopted by me too, basically either beggars on the street or homeless orphans. Where’s the so-called talent? Besides, Xiao Wu is a natural computer genius. Others just muddle along after me and gain some skills.”

Xia Yangyang was genuinely curious: “You adopted seven children, and I’m the seventh?”

Master Gao nodded: “You’re the last one.”

“But I only saw four yesterday.”

Master Gao explained: “The eldest, Xiao Zhan, is abroad. He’s managing operations and internationally wanted, so he doesn’t show himself easily. The second one you saw yesterday, he’s helping me manage legitimate business domestically. The third one, Phoenix, runs underground gambling and pleasure dens. The fourth one, Ah Shui, is quite unremarkable, spending his days idly by and just likes cars. However, he’s managed to make a name for himself as an F1 racer. The youngest, but the one I’ve had for the longest time, barely speaks due to some trauma in her infancy. Don’t be deceived by her silence, she’s a top-tier hacker, codenamed Z. The sixth one you’ve never met, hustling all over the place but rarely dropping by. We’ll talk about him next time we see him. As for you, you are the last and hence the junior most, so everyone refers to you as ‘Seventh Sister’.”
