World Six. Stepmother's son (11)
"Dad won't go back on his word, right?"
"What are you talking about? When did I ever break my promise to you?" Xue Wangui closed the document. "It's just that using the company's assets to make this investment may run into a lot of problems, so let's just use my name to make the investment."
"That's really the best."
Xue Xue smiled, and her beautiful and innocent appearance made Xue Wangui suddenly feel a little emotional.
"Mi Mi has grown up and looks more and more like your mother."
Xue Wangui's voice was thick with nostalgia.
Xue Xue learned from the photos on Xue Mi's bedside table that her biological mother was a very beautiful woman. Xue Mi's appearance was seven percent similar to that of her mother. One could imagine what kind of style she used to have, especially the pair of eyes that shone with radiant brilliance, like peach blossoms.
"Time flies so fast"
"I remember when your mother and I met "
Xue Xue quietly listened to Xue Wangui recalling the past.
From childhood to adulthood, Xue Wangui never concealed Xue Mi about her mother, including the marriage that was not smooth at first, and the love that gradually blossomed during the later years of their relationship.
When Xue Mi was still a child, she liked listening to her father tell her stories about her mother the most.
Even though her mother had left before Xue Mi could remember, to Xue Mi, her mother's face depicted from her father's mouth was lifelike, as if they had always lived together.
So although there was a time when she projected her adoration on Ding Rou, Xue Mi always remembered who her mother was.
No one could replace her.
Even after Xue Wangui remarried Ding Rou, Xue Mi always used the term Aunt Ding to call her.
Xue Wangui did not express any opinion on this. Under such circumstances, what Ding Rou thought in her heart didn't seem to be so important.
"Mom must be a very good woman."
After Xue Xue said this, Xue Wangui got lost in his thoughts and the atmosphere in the room was very quiet.
Xue Wangui came back to his senses.
There seemed to be a mist of water in his eyes, blurring his sight.
"Yes, your mother is really a very good woman." Xue Wangui choked, even if he tried his best to restrain himself, he couldn't suppress his trembling voice. "It's a pity"
What pity? Xue Wangui didn't say anything in the end, but they both knew it.
It was undoubtedly a huge regret for Xue Wangui and Xue Mi that Xue Mi's mother left in her best years. However, it was also such a regret that would make her remain in Xue Wangui's memory in the most beautiful form, and no one can replace her.
Looking at the man who was always in high spirits, whether as the big boss or the head of the family, in an instant, his straight back had started to stoop a little and Xue Xue found that Xue Wangui had more and more white hair on his temples.
Without a thought, she stepped forward and hugged her father.
"Dad, I will definitely do my best."
"Whether it's in the company or in life, I will try to do my best."
When Xue Xue said these words, she felt something vibrate in her chest.
She knew that this was Xue Mi's emotion.
Killing her father and losing her family property for a man who didn't love her in her last life has always been Xue Mi's biggest knot in her heart, and it was also the most difficult reason for her to forgive herself, so the first request in Xue Xue's task had nothing to do with love, but only wish for her father to live well in this life.
Now that she has taken over the task, she had to fulfill her role as Xue Mi.
"Mi Mi"
"Dad is right." Xue Xue, who had shed tears at some point, looked at Xue Wangui, who was still in shock, and gave a smile. "I have grown up, and I should learn to take responsibility instead of just focusing on my own enjoyment."
"Although I may not be able to do my best at once, but you teach, I will learn, and I will definitely not let you down."
Only then did Xue Wangui slowly regain his senses.
He didn't know how his daughter, who had previously rejected working for the company, had suddenly come to her senses, but no matter what, the result was definitely something Xue Wangui would like to see.
He had planned to hand over the company to Xue Mi for a long time, but he was very distressed because of Xue Mi's lack of motivation, so he had to listen to Ding Rou's suggestion, first train Jiang Anyang to be his deputy and then slowly persuade Xue Mi. He was still in his prime and there was still time.
Unexpectedly, his daughter has figured it out on her own. This was undoubtedly great news for Xue Wangui, and it has also diluted a lot of his heavy feelings of sadness and grief in his heart.
"Good, very good, you can figure it out by yourself, that is the best "
Xue Xue's well-behavedly held Xue Wangui's hand. From the man's thick palm, she felt the unique warmth of her father.
She can't help but rely on it.
System: "Jiang Pingyang's favorability has risen to 15%, and the client's grievance has dropped to 80%."
After the father and daughter chatted for a while, because Xue Wangui had business to deal with, Xue Xue went out first.
Unexpectedly, she met an unexpected person at the entrance of the stairs.
Her stepbrother, Jiang Anyang.
Since that night, Jiang Anyang has not come back for several days on the pretext of business trip, and even Ding Rou's phone calls were useless.
Unexpectedly, when Xue Xue was thinking about what to do next, the person had already stood in front of her.
In an unfathomable attitude.
When Xue Xue was looking at Jiang Anyang, Jiang Anyang was looking at her at the same time.
When it hadn't bloomed before, Xue Mi was like a budding flower, with a slender, well-proportioned figure, but now the woman standing in front of Jiang Anyang is like a peony in bloom. Even with a quiet smile on her face, her face was radiant.
Jiang Anyang looked a little lost in thought, until Xue Xue walked past him and the faint fragrance passed into his nose, the man woke up like a dream and grabbed the arm that passed by.
