Chapter 272: Chapter 271: The Sheng Family Has Heirs at Last!

Fang Wanrong felt that Sheng Xinhao was acting a bit strange.

However, she wasn’t clear about the reason.

But her intuition told her that something was definitely being hidden from her.

Watching Sheng Xinhao angrily get up and walk into another room, Fang Wanrong’s gentle eyes were filled with gloom.

–

Ever since Sheng Xinhao saw Xingxing and Yueyue that day, they were constantly on his mind.

After all, those were his own grandchildren.

In the period that followed, he visited the Sang Family even more frequently.

However, he felt that the two little ones were becoming more distant from him.

Sheng Xinhao felt a bit sad, but he didn’t dare say anything and certainly couldn’t scold the two little ones.

He could only think about how to cultivate their relationship as much as possible.

So, every time he went to the Sang Family, he would bring gifts for the two little ones.

And indeed, the gifts Sheng Xinhao gave really reached the hearts of Xingxing and Yueyue.

However, Xingxing and Yueyue remained distant.

As Sheng Xinhao had more interactions with Xingxing and Yueyue, he noticed something different about the two kids.

He discovered that the two children were truly smart.

They could be described as “geniuses.”

At just over two years old, they behaved like little adults.

Moreover, they had incredible memory, strong logical thinking, and firm resolve.

Sheng Xinhao also noticed that the two little ones were genuinely healthy, especially Xingxing, who showed great talent in martial arts.

This discovery made Sheng Xinhao extremely excited.

It was even better than when his eldest was young!

Xingxing was very well-suited for a career in the military.

The Sheng Family had successors!

Sheng Xinhao had always known that for children to be naturally gifted, parental genetics were crucial!

For instance, Sheng Zexi, born to him and Sang Yuwan, was very outstanding.

If a wife’s genes were lacking, the children might likely be the same.

Given how exceptional his eldest and his daughter-in-law were, the fact that Xingxing and Yueyue were so remarkable at just over two years old made sense.

Knowing that Xingxing had a talent for martial arts and to foster a relationship with them,

Sheng Xinhao continued, even if Xingxing and Yueyue ignored him.

He didn’t get angry, instead beginning to practice martial arts in the courtyard.

Sheng Xinhao, having reached his current position, still had impressive skills.

The truth proved that his approach was right.

Although Yueyue was uninterested in martial arts, Xingxing was very intrigued.

When Sheng Xinhao practiced, Xingxing couldn’t help but watch secretly.

Eventually, Xingxing even wanted to learn.

Previously, at home, he always practiced boxing with his father.

But now, in Beijing, separated from his father, the boxing practice had ceased.

Although Xingxing was very tempted by Sheng Xinhao’s martial arts,

he always remembered not to get close to Sheng Xinhao, the “bad grandfather,” so he didn’t reach out.

With Sheng Xinhao frequently visiting and interacting with the two kids, Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang naturally became aware.

After observing several times and seeing Sheng Xinhao had no ill intentions, rather going out of his way to win over the two kids, they didn’t stop him.

After all, even if Sheng Zexi constantly denied acknowledging his father, Sheng Xinhao remained his father, Xingxing and Yueyue’s biological grandfather.

Moreover, though Sheng Xinhao may not have been the best in educating Sheng Zexi, there was no denying he genuinely cared for Sheng Zexi.

And now, he cared for Xingxing and Yueyue too.

About Sheng Xinhao’s regular visits to engage with Xingxing and Yueyue, Grandma Sang also informed Sheng Zexi over the phone.

After hearing this, Sheng Zexi remained silent; ultimately, he said nothing.

However, during a call with his father, Xingxing asked a question.

“Dad, can I practice martial arts with him?” the child asked earnestly over the phone.

Truth be told, Sheng Xinhao’s martial arts truly intrigued Xingxing.

Though he watched out of interest, he wouldn’t go ahead without his parents’ approval.

After all, that “bad grandfather” didn’t like his mom and didn’t want his dad.

Xingxing stood by his mom and dad.

Sheng Zexi gritted his teeth, knowing the old man’s intentions.

Xingxing’s potential was likely seen by the old man at a glance.

He must have thought Xingxing could be nurtured, hence the effort to engage him.

Using martial arts to tempt Xingxing!

Shameless old man!

After pondering it, Sheng Zexi said, “Xingxing, if you want to learn, go ahead and learn.”

Ultimately, the issues between him and the old man were their grudges, which shouldn’t continue to affect Xingxing and Yueyue.

Of course, it was also because Sheng Xinhao bore no malice towards Xingxing and Yueyue and even tried to win their favor, otherwise…

Thus, when Sheng Xinhao came again to practice martial arts in front of Xingxing and tentatively asked if Xingxing wanted to learn,

Xingxing actually agreed!

Sheng Xinhao was overjoyed.

Indeed, his method had worked!

Upon personally teaching Xingxing martial arts, Sheng Xinhao discovered even more that Xingxing truly had great potential, and on Xingxing, he seemed to see the future of the Sheng Family!

Over on her side, since that day Fang Wanrong noticed something off about Sheng Xinhao’s mood, she had been observing carefully.

She noticed that recently, Sheng Xinhao had been going out more often. Not only that, his mood was more erratic.

Once, during a nap, Sheng Xinhao seemed to have a dream, in which he called out Yueyue’s name.

This sleep talk instantly woke Fang Wanrong.

Yueyue!

Obviously, that’s a woman’s name!

Why was Sheng Xinhao calling out the name of a woman named Yueyue in his dream? Could it be…

Fang Wanrong speculated that Sheng Xinhao might have met another woman outside recently?

The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed to Fang Wanrong.

Considering Sheng Xinhao’s recent behavior—such as mood swings, frequent absences, and growing coldness towards her—

everything was suspicious.

If Sheng Xinhao had an affair, then everything made sense.

Fang Wanrong never doubted Sheng Xinhao’s charm.

Though Sheng Xinhao was older now, there was no doubt he was still attractive, and even in middle age, he hadn’t gained weight.

On top of that, his current status would only attract many women.

After all, she, Fang Wanrong, had once been one of those women who coveted his status.

Ultimately, she defeated other women to secure her position!

“Impossible, there can’t be another woman!” Fang Wanrong panicked immediately.

If this had happened before when she had children, she might not have been so anxious, but now, she had no children.

She only had the role of the Sheng family matriarch.

If even this position was lost, what would she, Fang Wanrong, have left?

“No matter who it is, I will never allow anyone to take away the position of the Sheng family matriarch!” In Fang Wanrong’s eyes were cold determination and gloom.

Thus, Fang Wanrong immediately found someone to follow Sheng Xinhao and investigate where he went and with whom he spent time.
