Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 188: Chapter 188: Tit for Tat

Xu Ke stood on the balcony, watching from a distance the woman trembling incessantly at the iron gate. His good mood, ruined early in the morning, oddly became joyful again.

Housekeeper Zhao stood behind Xu Ke, looking over at the gate with a hint of a smile on his aged face, "Does the Family Head need me to prepare your clothes for going out today?" he asked softly.

"I have no plans to go out today, so there’s no need to prepare anything for now. But it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Grandpa Zhao play tricks on someone like this; it’s surprisingly nostalgic," Xu Ke’s lips curled up slightly, a reminiscent look in his eyes.

"Mainly because it’s been ages since I’ve encountered such an annoying little girl. As someone who can’t speak, I, as an elder, could only step in to teach her how to speak. The Family Head won’t blame me for meddling, will you?" Housekeeper Zhao asked with a smirk.

"How could I? They’ve already come knocking at our door, and we’ve only given a little lesson; we’re being too merciful. Since Chairman Hu has so much free time to meddle in others’ affairs, it seems we should find something for him to do," Xu Ke said, his eyes cold and dangerous as he rubbed his fingers.

"What does the Family Head plan to do?" Housekeeper Zhao’s eyes showed a hint of curiosity.

"Of course, send him a big gift. The woman who accompanied him to the ball that night is a perfect breakthrough point. Buy dirt from her assistant, the more related to Chairman Hu, the better. If we can get photos, even better. Once obtained, send them to Hu Jinzhi." As if thinking of an amusing scene, Xu Ke’s smile became even more joyful.

"Chairman Hu’s wife passed away years ago. If it can be proven that Chairman Hu was unfaithful before his wife’s death, it might have an even better effect," Housekeeper Zhao added.

"No need to prove it. Just make his daughter believe it," Xu Ke glanced at Housekeeper Zhao, his black pupils like ink-washed jade, mesmerizing.

"You sure have thought it through, Family Head. I’ll get right on it." Understanding Xu Ke’s meaning instantly, Housekeeper Zhao’s face showed a few indulgent and doting smiles. The two devious individuals exchanged glances, an ambiguous smile on their faces.
