"Of course, we don't want to ask too much about you young people. As long as Emma is happy, that's enough!" Eric continued.
"Mhmm!" Xu Taiping nodded. He was too lazy to explain because the more he explained, the darker it got.
"You should be able to tell that my car accident isn't simple, right?" Eric said.
"Yes." Xu Taiping nodded and said, "I checked it out on my way here, and it was a truck that went through the traffic lights that crashed into your car. I then checked the information on the truck and found out that the truck shouldn't have been there at that time."
"Sigh!" Eric sighed and said, "Those bastards, even if I go back, they won't let me off easily!"
Xu Taiping raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything, because that was what he wanted to do. Now that Xu Taiping had just figured out the purpose of the ring, he didn't have the time and energy to worry about other people's business.
"Do you know what I do?" Eric asked, looking at Xu Taiping.
"I don't know, and I don't think I do." Xu Taiping shook his head.
"You are already my son-in-law, and yet you still act like this. How unrealistic!" Eric frowned at Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping looked at Eric in surprise. He pointed to himself and asked, "What did you say I was yours for?"
"My son-in-law, you're living with my daughter now. If you're not my son-in-law, then what is?" Eric asked as if it was a matter of course.
"Do you know that I already have a girlfriend? "And it's even …"
"Two, right? I know, I've checked, you're a couple with Xia Jinxuan and Song Jia Lun, but what's wrong with that? This kind of thing is very common in foreign countries. Love, this sort of thing, who has to be specific? "This is a moral kidnapping. As long as you truly love each other, they can all be together. Just like me, not only do I have Emma's mother, I also have a lot of soulmates and confidants. These are all the power of love!" Eric said.
Xu Taiping looked at Eric with his mouth slightly open. He didn't know what to say. He had lived for thirty-one years, but this was the first time he had heard a father saying such things. Logically speaking, as a father, shouldn't he want his daughter to be happy? Wasn't happiness the same as a man who only cared about women?
Xu Taiping felt that his outlook on life had been overturned. He was silent for a long time, looking at Eric. He felt the need to rediscover the man in front of him.
This man seemed a bit ridiculous, but Xu Taiping felt that this man wasn't as simple as he looked. Just because this man could become friends with Xia Jiang, it meant that he definitely wasn't an unreliable person.
"Are you tying me up with you?" Xu Taiping said after a long silence.
"Bind? "No, no, no, I'm not tying you up. I just have something very important to tell you." Eric said seriously.
"What is it?" Xu Taiping asked. This time, Xu Taiping didn't choose to ignore Eric's question because Eric had piqued his interest.
"Do you know what Xia Jiang's business is all about?" Eric asked.
"Xia Jiang's business? "As far as I know, there are financial companies, nightclubs and some smuggling businesses." Xu Taiping said.
"Then do you know what he smuggles?" Eric asked.
"Automotive parts, mobile phone parts and the like. I think there are even clothes, high-grade luxury goods!" Xu Taiping said.
"These are just a part of Xia Jiang's smuggling business. There is an even more important part that only he and I know." Eric said with a mysterious smile.
"Which part?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Arms." Eric said.
"Arms?" Xu Taiping's pupils shrank. He never thought that Xia Jiang could actually smuggle in arms, this was too terrifying. One must know that the business of smuggle in arms was usually done by intelligent people. Xia Jiang was just a hoodlum in Jiangyuan city, how could he have access to this kind of business?
"Arms!" Eric nodded and said, "Xia Jiang has a way to get arms, and I'm his partner in Europe. After he obtains arms from certain places, he enters Europe through the smuggling routes under his command, and I'm responsible for helping him sell his arms in Europe."
"I've never heard of him having anything to do with the military." Xu Taiping said.
"If we want to get the arms, we don't need to have military connections. Also, we don't need Xia Jiang to personally come into contact with them, I've heard a person from Xia Jiang's mouth, that person's name is Mr. Li, Xia Jiang's arms, they were all obtained from that Mr. Li's hands." Eric said.
"In other words, Xia Jiang isn't the first hand, he might be the second, or even the third?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Right." Eric nodded and said, "Do you know why I came back this time? "Because the last shipment of arms from Xia Jiang to Europe sold out half a month ago, and now that my market in Europe is being crazily devoured, I had no choice but to come back. But, what I didn't expect is that those guys could actually send their black hands to China, luckily my car is good enough, otherwise I would be dead for sure."
"Who are they?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Who else could it be? The arms merchants in Europe are constantly eating away at my market share because of my supply of arms problem. After knowing that I've come to China, they definitely aren't willing for me to find new sources of supplies, so they attacked me. " Eric said.
"It seems that you have done a lot of business. As far as I know, Europeans are more xenophobic, especially us yellow-skinned Asians. And since you are able to make other arms dealers fear you, then we can see your share of the European arms market!" Xu Taiping said seriously.
"How do you know they're afraid of me?" Eric asked.
"If they don't fear you, then does it matter if China attacks you?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Hahahaha, you're right, Europe is indeed xenophobic, but who told my wife to be so fierce?" Eric said proudly.
"Your wife?" Xu Taiping frowned at Eric. To be honest, he didn't know who Eric's wife, Emma's mother, was. He'd only heard from Emma that her mother was from Perfume Country.
"My wife's last name is Rosshuar." Eric laughed.
"Rochshuar?!" Xu Taiping looked at Eric in surprise. After a few seconds of silence, he asked, "Is it that Rochshuar?"
"It's that Rosshuar! So Emma's real name is Elosshulama. " Eric said.
"Awesome!" Xu Taiping gave him a thumbs-up. "I didn't expect him to be from the illustrious Rochshuare family."
"It seems that you know a lot about the Roschuval Family!" Eric said.
"The Rosshuar clan was an extremely prominent noble family in the Perfume Kingdom. They had been passed down for more than 500 years, and their highest noble family had once given birth to a noble king. It was a pity that they were deprived of the title of noble after abolishing the aristocratic system. "When I was in Europe, I heard about this family. Although they were not as illustrious as the corrupt Elizabeth family, they were not that far off. It was said that they had some sort of kinship with each other." Xu Taiping said.
"Can you understand why the arms dealers in Europe are so afraid of me? Furthermore, on the European continent, they don't dare to make a move against me. Only here do they dare. " Eric pointed to his feet.
"So that's how it is!" Xu Taiping nodded in realization, "No wonder I can feel an unusual aristocratic aura from Emma. She really comes from a noble family."
"If you really can take my daughter, you and her descendants can also use the name of Rochshuar in the future." Eric said.
"Actually, I'm not very interested in foreign aristocrats, and I don't like them either. It doesn't matter if you're a duke or a king, in front of me, you have no value at all." Xu Taiping shook his head.
"Hahaha, actually, I feel the same way. These so-called nobles are a bunch of people who can only support themselves after eating their fill." Eric winked at Xu Taiping.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps and voices came from outside the door.
"There are still some words that I will have to say after I leave the hospital. Tonight, I will pay you a visit!" Eric said.
Xu Taiping nodded, "I'll wait for you."
Just as he finished speaking, the ward's door was pushed open, and Xia Jinxuan and the rest walked in.
"Dad, I bought some soup, your favorite dumplings, and some fruits!" Emma walked over to Eric with a bag in her hand.
"My good daughter, it's been hard on you!" Eric said emotionally.
"Emma, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first!" Xu Taiping stood up and said.
"Mhmm, go and do what you need to do!" Emma said.
"We'll stay here with Emma, you can go first!" Xia Jinxuan said to Xu Taiping.
"Alright!" Xu Taiping nodded, turned and left the ward, then returned home.
The Xia family was quiet, with only a few servants cleaning the rooms.
Xu Taiping walked into the house and went straight up to the study on the second floor.
After Xia Jiang died, Xu Taiping basically hadn't come to this study room, but now that Xu Taiping found out something from Eric, he had to go to the study room.
The furnishings in the study room weren't much different from before Xia Jiang died. Xu Taiping stood in the study room and looked around.
In the middle of the study was a huge desk. Two cabinets were placed on both sides of the desk, one of which held books, while the other held some wine, photos and the like.
Xu Taiping locked the office door, then rummaged through the study. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
