Chapter 869: Chapter 646: He Saw Dad (8000+)_3
Eric glanced at him, "If it were before, I’d agree with you saying that, but now... heh heh."
"What’s the matter?"
"Your wife’s cleverness is not inferior to yours, I feel that in a few years, she might be even better than you."
"No way."
"Really?"
Eric looked incredulous, he thought Su Xiaomeng was truly shrewd, even to this day, he hadn’t gotten over the shadows of that day.
On the surface, she agreed to marriage with Rong Jing, but in fact, it was to coax him into showing his hand.
"You’re still making it up! Eric, do you think I’m an idiot?! Who taught you that?"
"Was it... Yin Shixiu?"
"Take me to see him."
"I know... he’s not dead. Eric, I know."
Glaring at him with round eyes, those four simple sentences were like four icicles piercing his heart, leaving him stunned and chilled, unable to utter a word.
That scene, even now, is still vivid in his mind.
Such a Su Xiaomeng, Eric always felt it wasn’t the end yet, those so-called hardships and difficulties didn’t defeat this woman, but made her increasingly resilient and unstoppable.
Yin Shixiu’s fingers finally stopped fiddling on the phone, he looked up at Eric,
"She doesn’t like business, so I won’t keep her in the business field."
Eric was taken aback, "I think she has quite a potential, a sharp business mind, she’s a capable leader."
"But she doesn’t like it."
"... ..."
Yin Shixiu slightly pursed his lips, his gaze somewhat distant,
"Business is like a battlefield, but it’s not only business that’s like a battlefield; intense competition, unpredictable human nature, it’s actually the same everywhere."
"... ..."
"Xiao Meng is not afraid of competition, but this area is indeed not her passion. Look, in another competitive field, she participated in the interpretation contest with the top students from the United Kingdom, standing in the arena, even if she was nervous, even if she was anxious, she was happy."
"Consider her on the product competition stage, her words and statements also make her shine, but... there’s no love in her eyes."
Eric scratched his head, listening to Yin Shixiu, but couldn’t quite internalize it.
Maybe, only by loving Su Xiaomeng deeply, can one see through the external emotions she shows and perceive her true feelings inside.
"Then why did you leave the Yin Group to her in the first place?"
Eric laughed and asked.
Yin Shixiu quickly waved his hand,
"See, this is where you don’t get it, right?"
Eric raised his eyebrows high, waiting for him to continue.
"I just let the entire Yin Group be a toy for Su Xiaomeng until it’s worn out, certainly can’t hand it over to the Rong Family..."
Yin Shixiu’s face still appeared thin, but it no longer resembled a lifeless body, at least now there was some rosiness.
His thin lips curled slightly, forming a curve of composure in the world.
Eric thought so too.
"Back then, I didn’t expect Xiao Meng to use various resources to hold up the Yin Group. Just thought, if it’s really gone, then it’s gone."
"If I’m still alive, I’ll build another empire; if I’m dead, she’s free."
"Probably only you think this way."
Eric pointed at Yin Shixiu, with a snort full of disdain in his voice.
Yin Shixiu chuckled, sighed, "Yeah, probably... only I think this way, so it’s so easy to think about..."
"So you’re planning to not let her continue with these things when you return?"
"It’s not about letting, she will actively choose not to."
"... ..."
Eric frowned.
"Xiao Meng is actually quite lazy."
"Pfft..."
Eric wanted to say something, but over there Su Xiaomeng’s video had already connected.
Sure enough, she was lying on the balcony sun lounger.
These days, whenever they wanted to video call, she’d pick this time, waiting until Huang Huang and Shuangshuang were asleep, lying alone on the balcony sun lounger while video chatting with him.
"What are you doing now?"
Xiao Meng asked.
"Waiting for your video call."
Su Xiaomeng clasped her arms around herself, slightly tilted her head, with a big smile on her face,
"So obedient? Did the doctor say anything today? How is the recovery going? When will the next phase of treatment begin?"
"Recovery is going well, the next phase will be in mid-October."
Xiao Meng hurriedly counted the days, "A little more than a month left."
Thinking it over, from June to September, the entire scorching, irritable, busy, and frantic summer has passed.
Now there’s only the lingering heat of this sweltering summer left...
Xiao Meng lay on the sun lounger, still wearing long sleeves,
The early autumn night, slightly cool.
