Chapter 4: The Powerful Wang Family (Part 1)

  Time has passed day by day, and it's already been half a year.

  But for a 20-year-old adult male, suddenly becoming an infant is absolutely a nightmare, and that feeling is really hard to describe.

  But the most unbearable thing among all is that my body cannot move, being wrapped in a quilt for a long time, and my hands and feet are powerless. The feeling of being confined and losing freedom is really suffocating!

  What's more, being held and carried around by others, pinched here and there, kissed this way and that. Is it pleasant to be treated like a toy?

  Fortunately, because his body had become infantile, Wang Xu was extremely sleepy. Therefore, in order to relieve the stuffiness, Wang Xu generally only thought quietly about Xu Wenya and his family and friends from his past life, except when his mother in this life fed him milk, he was awake.

  For the rest of the time, Wang Xu was sleeping. Even if he wasn't sleepy, he forced himself to fall asleep. Fortunately, babies find it difficult to do anything with their bodies, except for sleeping, which is very easy.

  Apart from this, when Wang Xu found himself being taken to a place he had never been before, he would also force himself to observe his surroundings, after all, he was eager to know where he had transmigrated to.

  After more than half a year of observation, there has finally been some progress. Although the specific era and background are still unknown, it can be confirmed that this is not the era he was in before.

  Because this wealthy family, with its large mansion and numerous servants, still relies on oil lamps and candles for lighting at night. Moreover, no matter how hard they try to recreate the past, it's impossible for them to completely adopt the clothing and habits of ancient people in their daily lives.

  Especially when entertaining guests several times, Wang Xu found that even the guests were a group of ancient people with a style, and their clothes were still in the straight skirt style. He could clearly know how old this kind of clothing was. All these phenomena indicated that he was actually in another era.

  Unfortunately, Wang Xu never understood what they were saying and couldn't figure out the truth. Moreover, he found that his father in this life seemed to have several wives through proper marriages...

  In this strange world, Wang Xu has an indescribable sense of loneliness and often thinks about everything from his past life. Although the pain in his heart is gradually healing with time, a faint sadness has also settled, which is a mark left by the years and a sign of human maturity.

  Fortunately, he was lucky, and his family in this life were extremely fond of him, pampering him to the point of doting. Sometimes when the maid held Wang Xu and was slightly careless, if her hands or feet were a bit heavy, she would be scolded. This also brought a hint of warmth to his lonely heart!

  Wang Xu also grew up slowly in this care, because he still retained the memories of his previous life, so naturally different from ordinary children. Before the age of one, he could already speak and walk. He learned everything very quickly, and things that made many parents of young children worry were almost self-taught.

  Of course, as far as Wang Xu himself is concerned, if he can't do these things, then he has lived in vain for over 20 years. On the contrary, it's the inconvenience brought by his currently weak limbs that makes him extremely distressed!

  But it was still better than being wrapped up like a rice dumpling during infancy, so when Wang Xu first discovered that his hands and feet could support his body weight, he immediately went crazy and tore off the cotton cloth wrapped around him, and excitedly rolled back and forth, scaring his parents and servants in this life.

  Later, Wang Xu began to secretly learn some commonly used characters and the language of this place. As he gained a deeper understanding, Wang Xu confirmed that the language of this world was also Chinese, but with very different pronunciations. The characters seemed to be an ancient complex script, unfortunately, he didn't study much about characters, so he couldn't truly recognize them.

  With a solid foundation, plus the brain of a 20-year-old adult, it's no wonder he picked up these simple things quickly. Unfortunately, no one knew that Wang Xu was reborn with memories, so he became a genius in the eyes of others, a rare talent that appears only once in a century.

  Moreover, his unusual talent was quickly spread by his family members, and it seemed that this life's family had a great influence, so Wang Xu often heard his parents say that he was already famous far and near!

  Despite this, Wang Xu has been enduring and deliberately disguising himself, always keeping his behavior within a reasonable range. He quietly observes the world with his eyes and learns secretly.

  He understood that he couldn't be too outstanding, or else he would become a genius to be nurtured, but rather a monster to be eliminated! Although he could feel the thick love of his parents in this life, he didn't dare guarantee that others would be like his parents...

  Time flies like a white horse passing through a crevice, and in the blink of an eye, more than two years of loneliness have passed unknowingly. If it weren't for the care and warmth from his family, Wang Xu wouldn't know if he would have fallen into depression.

  But Wang Xu couldn't bear it anymore on his third birthday. After the guests left, he quietly pulled at his father's sleeve and went to the study room.

  Although Wang Yan did not understand what his son, who was walking ahead with his head down, wanted to do, he could only sigh and shake his head after asking him softly several times without getting an answer.

  Until he walked into the study, Wang Xu didn't pull him to sit down on the tiger bed, took a step back and said: "Father, I have something to say, I hope Father will forgive me for my disrespect first." Although he spoke very seriously, but still couldn't get rid of his childish tone!

  However, this was the first time Wang Xu spoke so politely to his elders. In the past, he would simply call out "Father", "Mother", "Uncle" or "Aunt" and then start talking. Moreover, in daily life, he only asked about things he didn't know how to address.

  Even so, it's already very outstanding. Wang Xu couldn't help himself and decided to show off a bit; pretending to be a child was too painful.

  Although he can't show off too much, at least he should show that he has the ability to take care of himself and strive for a larger scope of activity. Moreover, he is eager to understand his current basic situation!

  But his words had just come out when Wang Yan was stunned and stared at him blankly!

  Just as Wang Xu was getting anxious and started to think wildly, Wang Yan suddenly came back to his senses, laughed heartily and said: "My son is indeed a genius! At the age of 3, he already knows how to read and write! Never mind, child, you can speak your mind freely, whether right or wrong, I won't blame you." As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel delighted, stretched out his hand and pulled Wang Xu into his arms.
