"Continuing the incense of my bloodline?!" When Xu Taiping heard this, he was stunned, because he had already given birth to a child. Logically, the incense should have already continued.

Your father came to your generation and made you into a mother. Although you have the blood of my Zhao Family flowing through your veins, your surname is not Zhao, so we old men hope that you can choose one of your descendants to change to the surname Zhao and continue the burning of your bloodline in the Zhao Family. That way, your bloodline can continue to exist in the Zhao Family! Zhao Dingfang said.

"Yes, Taiping, we originally wanted to change your surname to Zhao, but since Taixu said you can't agree to this matter, we can only make a suggestion to have your family's incense continue to burn in the Zhao Family." An old man beside him said.

Hearing these old men's words, Xu Taiping fell into deep thought.

However, having a child surnamed Zhao as the surname of their family was not impossible. After all, his father was surnamed Zhao, and the Zhao family was no small fry, one of the top families in China. Even if there were any problems with his own Xu family in the future, with his descendants in the Zhao family, it would still be of some help to the Xu family.

"Even if you don't think for yourself, you still have to think for your father, or for the children behind you. Changing your surname to Zhao and becoming a member of the Zhao family isn't something shameful. Rather, it's something that is very good for your descendants." Zhao Dingfang said.

"Let me think about it." Xu Taiping said.

"Then you should think about it first. If you agree, we can immediately prepare the relevant matters." Zhao Dingfang said.

"Alright!" Xu Taiping nodded, and the other elders of the Zhao Family left.

"Old Zhao, what do you think of this matter?" Xu Taiping looked at Zhao Buqian and asked.

At this moment, Zhao Biqian was the Chief Steward of the Zhao Family. He was Xu Taiping's most trusted confidante, and he was helping Xu Taiping deal with the Zhao Family's matters.

"I think so." "After all, you are a member of the Zhao Family, and you already have two children, both male and female. If you can produce a descendant, it would be best if it is a male, and if you follow the surname Zhao, then it would be considered a good thing that your line has been reestablished in the Zhao Family."

"But I keep feeling that it's a bit strange that my child doesn't have my surname." Xu Taiping said.

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't use your father's surname?" Zhao Buqian asked.

"That's what I said, but I have my mother's surname." Xu Taiping said.

"Then... You can find a girl surnamed Zhao and have children with her, can't you? "In that case, let's just consider it as my mother's surname." Zhao Buqian said.

"If you say it like that … "Seems to make sense!" Xu Taiping's eyes lit up. He searched his brain and finally found someone.

Zhao Xiaohua!

This person's surname was Zhao, and it was his woman!

Xu Taiping looked at Zhao Biqian and found that he was looking at him.

"Old Zhao, I suddenly realized that you're actually a scheming BOY as well!" Xu Taiping said with a faint smile.

"How am I scheming?" Zhao Buqian asked as he helplessly spread his hands.

"Tell me if you wanted to find a girl surnamed Zhao, did you think of your daughter earlier?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Well... However, if it's my daughter, it's not impossible. She's already dead set on following you, and if I can give birth to a descendant of your surnamed Zhao, then it's not like I, Old Zhao, have wasted my many years of wholeheartedly serving the Zhao family. I, Old Zhao, have comforted myself and can be considered to have continued the incense of Old Zhao! " Zhao Buqian said with a beaming smile.

"Regarding this matter, I still have to ask Little Flower's opinion!" Xu Taiping said.

"Why do you ask her? If a woman can make a decision, then it's up to you. If you really want her to become pregnant, then you can just stop using contraception, right? " Zhao Buqian said.

"I don't want to do it, but it's always Little Flower let me do it. She means that her career has just started and she doesn't plan to get pregnant that early, because once she gets pregnant, she will have to fade out of the entertainment industry. Maybe when she comes back, others will forget about her." Xu Taiping said.

"This damn girl, what's important and what's not, is still unclear!" "How about this, I'll have her mother properly talk it over with her so that you can have your child as soon as possible, and continue the burning of your bloodline in the Zhao Family!" Zhao Buqian said.

"Don't force her, her happiness is the most important." Xu Taiping warned.

"Sigh, hearing you say that, I finally understand why Little Flower is so dead set on following you, you … "I still love her." Zhao Buqian sighed with emotion.

"That's for sure. I don't hurt my woman, but do you want me to hurt another man?" Xu Taiping laughed.

"It's a pity that you're too extravagant. If you didn't have the slightest bit of Blossom Heart, you would simply be a perfect son-in-law!" Zhao Buqian said.

"No one is perfect... Oh right, why didn't I see Aromatic Reed today? Weren't things like this what she used to like to get involved in the most? " Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"Fragrant Reed ah …" Yesterday, her boyfriend came to Beijing, so she's accompanying him. " Zhao Buqian said.

"Xiangyou has a boyfriend?!" Xu Taiping asked in surprise, "What kind of god is able to hold a fragrant reed in his hands?"

"Don't you know? Your brother, Liu Ke Chou! " Zhao Buqian said.

"F * ck!" Xu Taiping's eyes widened as he asked, "When did they fall for it?"

"I don't know either, but it's good anyway. Your brother came to the capital once or twice a month to look for her. Sigh, I really envy you youngsters, to be able to experience the passion of love. " Zhao Buqian sighed and said.

Xu Taiping smiled, then picked up his phone and made a call to Liu Ke Chou.

"I heard you're in Beijing?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Mm, come over here for a bit." Liu Ke Chou said.

"You kidnapped the girl from Old Zhao's family without saying a word. Don't you feel guilty?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Old Zhao's woman is not a woman? What are you feeling guilty about? " Liu Ke Chou asked.

"You're awesome. You can set up a table anytime you want." Xu Taiping said.

"Wait a minute, we will arrange a table after we've decided on it. Otherwise, if we don't get along by then, it will be awkward if we set the table ahead of time." Liu Ke Chou said.

"That's fine too. When you decide when you want to set the table. Remember, Ke Chou, Xiang You is a good girl. Don't let her down." Xu Taiping said seriously.

"En!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Taiping's mood improved a lot. His good brother, talking to people from the Zhao Family about friends, that feeling was very pleasurable. It was like he had eaten the food his own family grew.

The night passed in silence.

The next day, Xu Taiping gathered the elders of the Zhao Family and informed them of his decision.

"I agree to choose a descendant with the surname Zhao. This person will enter the family tree and continue our line." Xu Taiping said to the elders.

Hearing Xu Taiping's words, the elders' eyes filled with tears.

Zhao Dingfang excitedly grabbed Xu Taiping's hand and said, "If your father knew about your decision, he would be so happy!"

He couldn't understand their feelings, because he had never lived in an aristocratic family before. However, Xu Pingping could feel that all of these people's actions were for his own sake, for the sake of his own incense, to be able to continue living in the Zhao Family.

Generally speaking, the people of big families were eager to see the other branches become fewer and fewer branches, because branches meant to divide the clan's interests, but the Zhao Family was different. At the very least, in these elders' eyes, the inheritance of the Zhao Family was more important than the so-called benefits.

Just when Xu Taiping decided to choose a man with the surname Zhao from his descendants, a guest came to the Zhao Family.

What appeared in front of Xu Taiping was a middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man said that he had something he wanted to trade with Xu Taiping, so Xu Taiping saw him.

"Exchange for what?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Three years." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Three years?" Xu Taiping raised an eyebrow, then smiled, "What do you want in exchange?"

"Use this." The middle-aged man picked up a briefcase, took out a document, and handed it to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping opened the file and found many people's documents inside.

"Everyone here is the technical backbone of KBX's production of combat weapons. Each combat weapon can only be completed if these people personally forge it. If any accident happens to these people, then the attack on KBX's combat weapons project will definitely be devastating." The middle-aged man said.

"You mean. You want me to kill all of these guys? " Xu Taiping looked at the information and asked.

"A total of thirteen people. Using the lives of thirteen people in exchange for three years of time." The middle-aged man said.

"It's easy to get rid of some of these people, but once I kill a few of them, it will definitely alert KBX. When that happens, it'll be hard to kill the others." Xu Taiping frowned.

"I am only responsible for telling these things to you. As for the rest, think of a solution yourself. What I mean is, it's best not to take too long, because time is a very precious thing, whether it's for me, you or the person inside." The middle-aged man said.

"I know." Xu Taiping nodded, "When I succeed, I hope you can keep your promise."

"Definitely." As the middle-aged man spoke, he stood up from his chair and said, "I've already delivered the items. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."

With that, the middle-aged man turned and left without any hesitation.

Watching the middle-aged man leave, Xu Taiping fell into deep thought.
