Chapter 72 -72: Begin to Deceive Xia Ningxing_1
Xia Jianren felt that securing the perfume formula sooner rather than later was prudent, so after spending two days in Moli City, he returned to his hometown.
On the day he arrived home, Mrs. Xia and his five older brothers were negotiating business with clients in the backyard.
Only Xia Ningxing was in the courtyard, playing with a little white rabbit she had found in the mountains a couple of days ago.
Xia Jianren knew that only Xia Ningxing was privy to the perfume formula, so he headed straight for her: “Bao’er!”
Clad in a suit and leather shoes, he stood out like a sore thumb in the dilapidated and dirty courtyard.
A kindly smile was plastered across his handsome face, and in his hand, he dangled a snack he thought was precious, trying to lure her in: “Bao’er, stop playing with the bunny. Come and see what Daddy bought for you. It’s chips, come and have some.”
Xia Ningxing glanced over at him.
Heh, when someone goes out of their way to offer favours unasked, they’re either a crook or a thief!
So…
Xia Ningxing directly put her hands on her hips without giving him a pleasant look: “What’s so good about chips? I’m sick of them!”
When Xia Ningxing said this, she wasn’t just bragging. Ever since her family had started making money, there was never a shortage of snacks for Xia Ningxing at home, and every time Mrs. Xia returned from setting up her stall in the city, she would always bring a variety of snacks for her.
Her life was even more comfortable than that of kids in the city.
“Uh…” Xia Jianren was slightly embarrassed, but when he thought about the purpose of his visit, resentment brewed within him, yet he still forced himself to endure and crouched in front of her: “I’m sorry, Bao’er. Daddy really didn’t know that you’ve grown tired of these. How about you tell Daddy what you want to eat, and I’ll take you to buy it, okay?”
His tone was gentle, his face smiling, the perfect image of a doting father.
If it weren’t clear to her that he was a slag father, Xia Ningxing might have actually been moved by his touching act.
She smiled faintly, her tone sharp as she did not give face: “You don’t need to try to please me. If you have something to say, just spit it out. Be direct and don’t waste time!”
She was indeed curious as to what it was that had the slag father so keen to curry favor with her!
Having someone so bluntly point out his motive made Xia Jianren indignant, but he just couldn’t afford to break the facade. He let out a sigh that seemed helpless and reached out to stroke her head: “Bao’er, here’s the thing. Daddy thinks the perfume from our family is especially fantastic. I heard that you have the secret formula for making it. Would you give the formula to Daddy, please? Then Daddy can use it to make a lot of money, way more than we’re making now.”
“Then, I can buy a luxurious villa for you, Mom, and your brothers to live in, drive a four-wheeled sedan, have a chauffeur to take you to and from school, and have maids and butlers to serve you at home, leading a life like a princess.”
“Also, you like acting, right? I’ll sign you up with the best entertainment company, give you resources, and make you an international superstar, so your name will be known all over the world…” and then, you’ll become her cash cow!
What a grand and delicious pie he painted in the air!
If Xia Ningxing were really a naive nine-year-old girl, she might have given the perfume formula away without a second thought, but regrettably, Xia Ningxing was no such innocent child.
Before she transmigrated into this book, she hadn’t been very old, but she was mature at heart, crystal clear about what he was scheming.
It wasn’t enough that he had swindled money, now he also wanted to steal the perfume formula!
Being such a con, why don’t you fly up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun, and let the heat kill you, you beast!
Xia Ningxing really wanted to cast aside all manners and curse at him, pointing at his nose.

But the reality was, not only did she restrain herself, but she also handed over the perfume formula.
“Okay, Daddy!” she exclaimed, lifting a naive and innocent smile on her beautiful pale face, childlike and pure. Yet if one looked closely, they’d notice her smile didn’t reach the bottom of her eyes; it was laced with coldness: “Just wait a moment, I will write down the perfume formula for you.”
