“In 1994, my father Xu Yuanyang had just taken over the Asian Games Shipping Group from his family.

He was only 25 years old at the time, when he was in high spirits. In the same year, his family arranged for him a well-matched wife. She was the daughter of Vientiane Real Estate. It was said that she was a well-educated and courteous lady, and she was also very beautiful.

After the two got married, Mrs. Xu gave birth to a pair of triplets for my father the next year, two boys and one girl. They all inherited the appearance advantages of my father and Mrs. Xu, and they could see clearly when they were born. It comes out very nice.

The success of both career and family made my father very happy. One month after the birth of the child, he set up a table of full moon wine that shocked the whole city. The scale was so large that even passers-by on the roadside could have a glass of wine.

Because it took almost a year to get married, honeymoon, and have children, after the full moon party, my father was urged by the group's board of directors to get back to work quickly.

It was during this work that my father had a big accident, but because of this accident, my father met my mother and they had me. "

While Xu Xi was talking, the hot pot side dishes that Qin Shoumo had been waiting for for a long time were also served on the table. Qin Shoumo asked while adding side dishes to the pot: "So the three children born to Mrs. Xu are your brothers and sisters?"

Xu Xi nodded, "Two sisters and one brother."

"The daughter of Wanxiang Real Estate, let me think about it, what is your name, Yang Yuanying?"

"Lawyer Qin even knows." Xu Xi was a little surprised.

"We had a lawsuit against Vientiane Real Estate before and they almost bankrupted it. It is said that a big man behind the scenes invested and saved Vientiane Real Estate. It should be your father." Qin Shoumo began to put the meat from the plate into the pot.

Xu Xi thought for a while, "Lawyer Qin should be talking about the dispute between Vientiane Real Estate and Yuchen Group in 2015, right?"

Qin Shoumo nodded, "During that time, Shao Yuchen hired me to be the legal counsel of their group. Speaking of it, it was the first time I served as the legal counsel of a company. Although I refused at the time, Shao Yuchen gave me a monthly salary. With a salary of tens of millions, I reluctantly fought the lawsuit for him for several years."

"Lawyer Qin is indeed the most expensive lawyer in the country as rumored."

"It's not a job to work for anyone. Since he asked me to set a price, I won't ask for a higher price. One is willing to pay and the other is willing to suffer." Qin Shoumo shrugged.

"That's the truth." Xu Xi nodded, "In the dispute at that time, after my father heard that you were the lawyer of Yuchen Group, he advised Mr. Yang to avoid his sharp edge for the time being and take a step back. There is no loss at all.

However, Mr. Yang has single-handedly brought Wanxiang Real Estate to such a scale. He was also a powerful entrepreneur in China when he was young. Xiongxiong I did not believe that just a lawyer with a slightly better reputation could bankrupt him, so He ignored everyone's dissuasion and insisted on fighting the lawsuit.

You should also know what happened later, Lawyer Qin. My father even took us to listen. That was also the first time I saw you. Mr. Yang’s lawyer is already one of the best lawyers in the country, but he is still in court. You were sweating profusely and restless, but you were almost lying on the chair, strategizing, and it took less than half an hour to end this extremely controversial case dispute in the eyes of outsiders.

Even Mr. Yang later refused to accept it and appealed. In the second court session, you only spent twenty minutes to destroy Mr. Yang's decades of hard work.

I remember the final court ruling that Wanxiang Real Estate needed to compensate Yuchen Group 230 billion.

Although it seems from the books that Vientiane Real Estate can afford so much money.

However, the request you applied to the court for enforcement within three days if the compensation amount is not paid has put Mr. Yang in a desperate situation.

230 billion in cash, let alone Vientiane Real Estate, could not even be used for the Asian Games ships at that time.

Later, at Mrs. Xu's plea, my father agreed to sell the group's shares worth 100 billion, and then sold several cruise ships to collect 150 billion in cash for Vientiane Real Estate. The 80 billion that the real estate company raised by itself barely covered the 230 billion in compensation.

However, after repaying so much money, Vientiane Real Estate was completely wiped out, and it has been in decline ever since. It fell from one of the top ten or even top five housing construction groups in the country to a second-rate company.

For the Asia Shipping Group, the 150 billion was considered a major hemorrhage that almost hit the aorta. Because of the lack of those large cruise ships, the expansion plan that the Asia Shipping Group had formulated at that time was abruptly postponed. It took five years for implementation to begin. "

"Oh, come to think of it, it's all thanks to me that it has caused so much trouble to your family." Although he said this, there was no trace of guilt in Qin Shoumo's tone.

Xu Xi shook his head, "It's just a small episode, it's not important. Whether it's Vientiane Real Estate or Asia Shipping Group, it's actually not important to me. They have nothing to do with me. These things should not exist in my world in the first place." in life.”

"I understand." Qin Shoumo nodded, took a chopstick of beef and stuffed it into his mouth, "You continue."

“In 1995, after hosting the full moon party for his three children, my father took the company’s crew on his first ocean voyage after marriage, and the destination was Australia.

Considering that my father has not personally led a group to go to sea for about two years, in order to let my father get familiar with it first, the company just arranged a place that is relatively close and is a route that the company is familiar with. It can be said that it is just to go out for a walk. Came back soon.

But no one expected that on the fourth day out to sea, the fleet led by his father encountered a typhoon that suddenly changed direction along the coast of Fujian.

Originally, according to the weather forecast from the Meteorological Bureau, the typhoon would soon leave the coastal areas and head towards the Pacific Ocean, so my father deliberately slowed down to avoid encountering the typhoon.

But what no one expected was that not long after the typhoon left, when my father's fleet reached the waters in Fujian, it suddenly turned back and happened to collide with the fleet.

Even though the ship was full of veteran crew members who had experienced hundreds of battles at sea, and all of them were experienced, they had never seen such a situation before, so no one had time to take any countermeasures, and the fleet was struck by that formation. The Category 14 typhoon blew away, and most of the ships were overturned into the sea by the typhoon with huge waves, including the ship my father was on.

My mother’s hometown is in a small place called Hongshan Town in Fujian Province. The town was very poor at that time. Children in the town had few opportunities to receive education. My mother was no exception. My grandfather arranged for me to drop out of school and go home early. Helped with the household chores.

Grandpa's house was decorated with doors and windows, etc. Mom was a girl, so naturally she couldn't do these jobs. So when she grew up, grandpa and grandma went out to do the work together, while mom was responsible for cooking and washing clothes at home. housework.

One day, my mother went to the beach to catch a few crabs to cook for lunch. As a result, while catching crabs, she found a young man lying on the beach not far away. His clothes and face were covered with sand. It seems that something happened to the ship out to sea, and it was washed here by the waves.

Residents of coastal towns like Mom often encounter situations like this, so it's not surprising. Generally, those who can be brought here by the sea are probably lucky.

According to the saying there, Mazu thought you were a good person and your life should not be cut off, so she saved your life.

My mother was a very soft-hearted person. Seeing the man on the verge of death, she couldn't bear to see him die here, so she dragged the man back home from the beach.

Because the grandparents usually go out to work and don't come back for a week, so the mother can secretly take the man back to take care of him for a few days and wait until he wakes up.

Under the careful care of his mother, the man woke up within a few days. I thought I could send him away when he woke up, but unexpectedly, the man lost his memory and couldn't remember who he was, where his home was, and Someone you know.

For a moment, my mother was a little helpless, not knowing where to send this man whose origins were unclear.

After thinking about it for a long time, my mother took the man to the local police station, told the police the man's basic situation, and wanted to leave the man there and let the police help find his life experience.

But at that time, it was a small police station in the town. The biggest case the police ever handled was to catch thieves and scare gangsters who were fighting in groups. For these people who were lost due to shipwrecks, it was still difficult to know who they were and where they came from. It's easy to say that they can be sent directly to the county. The county police station will then send them to the city and they can be sent back quickly.

But those people with amnesia don’t remember who they are at all. Even if they are sent to the county, the county will look at it and ask questions, but they don’t bother to care about this kind of thing. After all, in the 1990s, network technology and other things were all over the place. It is underdeveloped and has too few ways to communicate with the outside world.

So after hearing what my mother told me about the situation, the police at the police station said perfunctorily that they already knew the situation and would find a way to find the man's life experience and help him contact familiar people. Then they turned around and asked my mother to take the man back.

Although the man has lost his memory, he is not stupid. He can see that it is definitely inconvenient for his mother to keep him at home. After all, a girl of eighteen or nineteen cannot justify leaving a strange man at home.

So the man told his mother that he would stay at home for one more night and would move out the next day and figure out how to find a stable job first.

My mother thought that my grandparents would not come home so soon, so she temporarily agreed to the man's request.

But what I didn't expect was that when the two of them were chatting after dinner that night, my grandparents ended the project a day early and returned home directly.

The unsuspecting mother and the man were caught at home. It is said that the grandfather flew into a rage on the spot and almost hit the man on the head with a construction hammer. If the grandmother and mother had not stopped the man quickly. In front of him, the man was probably going to die on the spot that night.

After my mother and grandma tried to dissuade me, although I was still very angry, my grandpa finally put down the hammer and sat on the stool with a dark face to listen to my mother's explanation.

Although the man's origin was clearly explained, my grandfather still remained suspicious of the man, thinking that outsiders had no good intentions, and even if they had lost their memory, they still had bad intentions.

After repeatedly confirming with his mother that the man had not done anything dishonest, my grandfather temporarily gave up on the idea of ​​doing anything to the man, but he also firmly disagreed with the man living at home anymore, regardless of whether he was unfamiliar with the place where he was born, and it was still midnight. In the middle of the night, he kicked the man out of the house.

The man was homeless and had no money to stay in a hotel, so he had to sleep on the street in front of his mother's house all night. Fortunately, there is no winter in Fujian, and it is not too cold. Even sleeping on the ground will not be that uncomfortable. .

Because the man has no identity, Hongshan Town is a small place, and the residents in the town are still a bit xenophobic, so the man wandered around the town for several days without finding a job willing to accept him.

Later, after days of hard begging from my mother and persuasion from my grandmother, my grandfather reluctantly agreed to bring a man to help him during the project. After all, my grandmother was still a woman and couldn't do many manual jobs.

At first, grandpa thought that doing this kind of construction project would be hard and tiring. Maybe the man wouldn't be able to persevere in a few days and ran away.

But he didn't expect that after completing several projects, the man's performance made him somewhat impressed.

He is hard-working, able to endure hardships, and can do dirty work. He can complete the work assigned to him within the specified time and maintain quality and quantity. When a man works with him, it is even faster than when he works with his grandmother. He is very efficient. All improved a lot.

Friendships are established quickly between men, especially engineering people, who are always straightforward and have no ill intentions. After the man worked with his grandfather for more than half a year, his grandfather finally accepted this seemingly smart and capable man. As a foreigner, my mother asked my mother to prepare a room for him to stay at home.

Although grandpa can tell that mom and the man have developed a romantic affection for each other during their relationship for more than half a year, but because the man’s identity is not clear yet, and the man is a foreigner, grandpa has been They all pretended not to know, turned a blind eye, and never mentioned anything other than work.

Things changed at the beginning of the second year. When working on a high-altitude building project, my grandfather was too confident in his skills and climbed onto the scaffolding without taking any safety measures.

But sometimes accidents happen so suddenly. The sun was so strong that day that my grandpa's eyes were blinded for a while. He couldn't see clearly. He slipped and fell off the scaffolding.

Fortunately, the man below had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he was able to catch his grandfather a few floors below when he was about to fall to the ground, but despite this, one of his legs was still broken.

For those who work in construction projects, if there is a problem with their hands and feet, they will basically have no chance of being in the construction industry in this life. The same is naturally true for my grandfather.

Grandpa, who has lost the ability to work, will have to stay in bed for another year after the operation, and he will not be able to do any work.

When the whole family lost their source of income, the man stood up and said that he wanted to repay his grandfather's family for taking him in. He took over his job. From then on, his grandfather contacted the customer and negotiated the price. Go do the work.

The man was in his prime and had strong learning and working abilities. Coupled with his grandfather's remote guidance, he quickly became famous in the local area. He was better than his predecessors and his family's income was even more than before.

Seeing the man working so hard to support his family, my grandfather was finally moved. After the man's work was over, he mentioned the matter between him and his mother to the man and expressed his agreement.

People in small places always get married young. Some of the other girls in the town, like my mother's age, can already walk. My mother is actually older and single.

Over the course of this year, it was not just the days when my mother picked up the man, but later on the man gradually integrated into the family, eating, walking, picking up shells on the beach, catching crabs and other details of getting along with my mother. The two people have fallen deeply in love with each other, but their grandfather has always disagreed, so neither of them dared to say it openly.

Now that grandpa has relaxed and expressed his approval for the two of them to be together, the two of them are no longer secretive. Under the arrangement of grandpa and grandma, they quickly obtained the marriage certificate in Hongshan Town and applied for a marriage license. An ordinary wedding.

Because the town is not big to begin with, other people in the town have known about the man’s situation for a long time. In the past year, the man has been practical and capable, and he has taken good care of his grandfather’s family. Everyone has noticed it. In addition to being exclusive, the town The neighbors on the street are still simple in character.

But now that the man has no life experience and no memory of who he is, and he is married to a girl from the town, everyone simply treats the man as a person from the town.

The man who was truly accepted by the whole town from now on completely gave up the idea of ​​finding his life experience after getting married.

Over the past year, I have experienced the care and concern from my grandmother and mother at my grandfather's house. Although my grandfather was strict, he also gave kind lessons, which made the man truly feel the warmth of home.

Moreover, there is no information about his life experience at all, and there is no memory in his mind. The man is no longer obsessed with his life experience.

Anyway, a person's life is nothing more than getting married and establishing a career. It's the same everywhere. Now that he has found the warmth of family here, he no longer has to be obsessed with finding his original family.

Sometimes what you have now may be the best. Maybe your original family was not very good and not as harmonious as this small family now.

Moreover, my mother said that the man was found on the beach, and he must have drifted here after a shipwreck. Fortunately, he survived, and maybe he will have good fortune in the future.

On the contrary, this makes the man feel that his previous life may have been wandering around and not stable at all. Maybe now he has arrived in Hongshan Town and has a happy family. This is the so-called 'luck will come' .

After the two got married, they soon gave birth to a daughter. Because she had seen too much of the sea, her mother preferred the clarity of the creek, so she named her Xu Xi.

My father and mother's married life is very happy, especially after I was born. Together with my grandparents, the life of the family of five can be considered happy.

Perhaps because she has a child, her mother is increasingly afraid that her father will make the same mistake as her grandfather and have an accident at work, causing irreversible losses.

So at my mother's repeated request, my father gave up the engineering profession that had been passed down from his family for so many years. Although grandpa was not very willing, because he himself was a living example, he had no position to object.

Because my mother likes roses the most, and when she is bored at home, she likes to play with various flowers and tie them into beautiful bouquets. So at her mother’s suggestion, the two of them used their family’s savings to open a flower shop. The store is named after me, called Xiyu.

At that time, our family was the first to open a flower shop in a coastal town. Because of its curiosity and freshness, it attracted many residents from the town and surrounding towns to watch the fun.

Most people see roses on TV and in pictures. Not many people see real roses in villages and towns, so for the sake of freshness, in the first few months after the flower shop opened, people would come in every day. The money I earn from buying flowers is not much different from what my father does when he goes out to do engineering.

But Dad knows that novelty comes and goes quickly, and everyone’s novelty will not last long, so the marketing model must be changed immediately.

My father, who was raised as the heir to a large group since he was a child, even if he has lost his memory, he still has in his mind how the business model works and what kind of marketing strategies and methods are most useful. These things will not be forgotten.

Dad's thinking can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack here. Mom only needs to be responsible for arranging flowers, while dad went to the county and city to start looking for some flower markets and larger flower shops to discuss cooperation matters.

Dad’s innate businessmanlike temperament, extraordinary conversational skills, and forward thinking soon led to one cooperation after another, solving the supply needs and sales channel problems of the family’s flower shop.

It has to be said that gold is gold no matter where it is. Dad is a born businessman. After entering the mall, a series of layouts quickly turned Xiyu from a remote coastal town flower shop into a flower shop in Fuzhou. In the city center, there is an influential chain of flower supply centers.

Our family also moved from a small self-built bungalow on the beach to a villa in a big city, leaping from the peasant class to the wealthy class.

That was around 1999. In that era when a household worth ten thousand yuan could be looked up to, our family already had a six-digit deposit and twelve or thirteen branches across the province. It could be said that it was already considered a local A somewhat famous rich man.

Of course it's good to be famous. Mom and dad are no longer country people from remote towns. Our family's living standards have also undergone earth-shaking changes. Grandpa has a state-of-the-art electric wheelchair, and the family also hires servants and nannies. I have also become the so-called 'eldest lady', and my parents are also a model couple in the eyes of everyone. They have been in a harmonious relationship for many years.

Of course, not only from the perspective of outsiders, but also from the perspective of family members such as my grandparents and me, my father and mother have a very good relationship.

Dad remembers all anniversaries, including one hundred and two hundred days, as well as Valentine's Day, Chinese Valentine's Day, and Christmas. He will prepare surprises for Mom. The two of them have an extremely romantic life.

When he is not busy at the flower shop, his father often takes his mother on trips to see different scenery. Even after having children, they still often spend their time together.

Just when we all thought that life would go on like this, another major impact of fame came.

An impact that changed the fate of everyone in our family. "

"Let me guess, it's the eldest lady, Mrs. Xu, who came to the door with your sisters and brothers?" Qin Shoumo interjected.

Xu Xi nodded, "Yes, dad is the only male in the Xu family. The Xu family will definitely not give up searching for dad's whereabouts over the years. He wants to be seen alive and his body is dead."

"It's a pity to say that. In theory, your family is living a good life in Fujian. Your parents are also together because of true love. There is no so-called family marriage. There are many things mixed in it, and it is definitely much better emotionally than Mrs. Xu.

In addition, with a daughter like you, they have worked together step by step from the countryside to the big city. This experience has been enough to make people remember it deeply. "Qin Shoumo said with regret.

Xu Xi sighed, "But God seems to never see people's happiness. When people feel that their lives are complete, they will always come out and tell you that this is a joke played by fate on you.

I remember that I was in the first grade of elementary school at that time. After school that afternoon, the person waiting to pick me up at the school gate was not my mother, but my grandma.

My mother has always been personally involved in picking me up after school. My grandma and her friends also have senior activities, so they don’t have time to pick me up.

Although I was still young at the time, I had a vague premonition that it was my grandma who picked me up.

After returning home, I found that in addition to my grandfather, my parents, there was a serious-looking middle-aged man and a young and beautiful woman at home.

Grandpa was sitting on the sofa, his expression not very good. The middle-aged man was sitting opposite grandpa. I just glanced at him and didn't dare to look at him any more.

I couldn't tell what it felt like at the time, but looking back now, I think it was probably the majesty of a superior person, making people afraid to look directly at him.

The young woman sat next to the man and looked at her mother with an indifferent expression. It was possible to see the strong hostility towards her mother in her body.

Mom was sitting next to grandpa, her head lowered and she didn't know what she was thinking, but she could see that her eyes were a little red, as if she had just cried.

Dad was sitting in the middle of the two groups, smoking cigarettes one after another, looking at the strange middle-aged man and the woman next to him from time to time, frowning.

I only looked at it a few times, but my grandma stopped letting me look at it. She took me into the room and asked me to do my homework. She also stayed in the room with me.

In the evening, when I finished my homework and went out to wash up, the two strangers had already left. But that night, my father and mother slept in separate rooms for the first time. Grandma went to my mother's room and slept with her all night.

Later, when I came home from school the next day, my father was no longer at home.

My mother told me that my father had a job to discuss and that he would have to travel for a long time, maybe half a year, maybe a year or two, so she told me not to think about my father yet.

I was still young at the time, and my father was quite busy at work, so I didn’t think too much about it.

Later I found out that the middle-aged man who came that day was my grandfather, Xu Haiyang, the previous generation head of Asia Shipping Group.

That woman is Mrs. Xu, who justifiably got a marriage certificate with her father, and the rich daughter of Vientiane Real Estate, Yang Yuanying.

When they came over that day, they did not rush to say that they must take their father back immediately. Instead, they discussed with his father that they would go back with them first to see if they could regain some of their original memories in the environment where they grew up.

Then he went to the hospital to receive some rehabilitation treatment that was helpful in restoring his memory. After Dad's memory was fully recovered, they all respected whether he would choose to go back to be the all-powerful spokesman for Asia Shipping Group or continue to be the owner of the chain flower shop. Dad's choice.

The appearance of Grandpa and Mrs. Xu made Dad pick up the search for his life experience, which he had long since abandoned. However, his current life is too happy, and Dad is afraid that he will not be as good as he is now when he returns to his original family. .

That Mrs. Xu who claimed to be his wife, my father didn’t feel the slightest bit moved in his heart from the first time he laid eyes on her until she left. Therefore, my father also knew in his heart that this must be just a fight in the shopping mall. Marriage, he has no love for Miss Yang.

However, when my father was hesitant, my mother suddenly stood up. She said that she hoped that her father could go back and search for his life experience. If he could not remember the past twenty years, it would be equivalent to living less in his life. After more than twenty years, no matter what, she didn't want her father to have any regrets in his life.

With the support of his mother, his father followed his grandfather back to Qingdao the next day and began to explore his own memory.

Mom may have thought that after Dad regained his memory, no matter what he chose, he would come back and tell us.

But what none of us expected was that my father had been away for ten years, and it was not until the summer of 2011 that he reappeared in front of my mother and me.

Dad told us that things were not as simple as we thought. As soon as he returned to Qingdao, he was put under house arrest by his grandfather. Although he would still receive memory rehabilitation treatment in the hospital, his grandfather would not allow him to leave Qingdao for even half a step.

Although he later recovered his memory, my father missed my mother and me every day and tried his best to get back to us, even if he just came to see us.

But in a family like that, although dad is already the nominal chairman, grandpa is still the largest shareholder of the group. In order to prevent dad from going out, grandpa doesn't even let dad personally lead the team to go overseas, which completely restricts dad's ability. Personal freedom.

The reason why he has not been able to come to us until now is because his grandfather passed away half a year ago. According to his will, my father inherited all of his shares and became the largest shareholder of the group. Until this time, no one can limit him anymore. Dad is free.

After finishing my grandfather's funeral and handling the group's internal affairs, my father couldn't wait to come to Fuzhou to find us. He wanted to take my mother and me to Qingdao to live together.

Originally, my mother was unwilling. After ten years, she had become accustomed to living with me alone, and gradually let go of my father.

And if I returned to Qingdao, I would definitely not be able to avoid getting along with my father’s wife, the well-named Mrs. Xu, and her three children. My mother was worried that I would be bullied if I got along with them, so she refused on the spot. dad.

But Dad was really determined to take us back. In order to make Mom relent, he sat on the street outside the villa for three nights just like he did when he was in Hongshan Town, and finally made Mom willing to come with him again. Let’s talk.

This time, in addition to his affectionate confession to his mother, he also took out his diary for the past ten years, which was filled with his thoughts about his mother every day. He wrote six thick notebooks in the past ten years.

He promised his mother that after returning to Qingdao, our family of three would live elsewhere, not with Mrs. Xu and her three children, and would not let me be bullied by those three children. In his heart, I and His mother is his family.

In the end, seeing that my father was really sincere, my mother relented and promised that she would take me back to Qingdao with him, but only if she drove Xiyu to Qingdao as well.

Xiyu is a company founded by mom and dad together. Unlike Yachuan, which is passed down from the family, Xiyu has devoted all his efforts to his father. He made it bigger and stronger step by step, so he naturally agreed to mom's conditions. Soon after, someone bought a building in the center of Qingdao and moved the headquarters of Xiyu from Fuzhou to Qingdao.

After returning to Qingdao, my father fulfilled his promise and bought a house in advance for the three of us to live in. He also found a school for me. My mother continued to manage Xiyu.

At least in the first two months, it seemed as if we had briefly returned to the life we ​​had as a family of three in Fuzhou. Because my father came back to us and was as good to us as ever, my mother's mood also visibly improved. got up.

But in Qingdao, even if my grandfather passed away and my father became the actual leader of the Asia Shipping Group, some things were not as simple as my father imagined.

For example, Mrs. Xu couldn't sit still when her father showed such a look on his face that he didn't come home for two months, so she brought her three children to our house and caused a scene.

Mrs. Xu’s father, Mr. Yang of Wanxiang Real Estate, was naturally very angry when he saw that his daughter had been wronged. He went directly to her father and scolded him, and threatened that if his father did not come home, he would withdraw from Wanxiang Real Estate in Yachuan. investment in favor of Asia's arch-enemy.

Because it was at a critical moment for Asia Ship, Mr. Yang's threat was still a bit serious to my father. Although my father was still unwilling to go back, my mother was a sensible person and she knew that the overall situation should be put first.

Mom told Dad that she has seen Dad's feelings for us. She is now much more mature than ten years ago. She knows that with Dad's current identity and status, there are many things that he cannot control.

She could understand her father's last resort, so she advised him to go home more often and come to us less. She could take care of me by herself. If my father couldn't let go, he could come over every once in a while to see us. , but there is no need to stay here for too long.

Mom's reasonableness made Dad feel even more guilty, but Dad was not a person who would be trapped by such things. He quickly plunged into the development and operation of the company, and overcame his inner fear of the sea, and once again personally He led the team to go to sea and completed several transportation tasks that had a huge impact on the group.

With his father's various operations, both overt and covert, Asia Shipping Group began to slowly get rid of the control of Vientiane Real Estate and no longer needed the investment of Vientiane Real Estate.

When Mr. Yang realized it again, although he was very angry, it was already too late. By then, the size of Asia Marine Group had far exceeded his Wanxiang Real Estate and became a real behemoth.

After I became strong, my father began to come to see us often again. Of course, Mrs. Xu still cried, made trouble, and hanged herself as before, not looking like a lady at all.

The same goes for Mr. Yang. Although he can no longer pressure his father as an investor, he can still discipline him as a father-in-law. In addition, as the scale of Asia Shipping Group becomes larger and larger, his father's personal image has begun to be affected. More and more people are paying attention.

If Mrs. Xu loses her mind and does something extreme, Dad is not worried that he will be condemned by the media and the public. After all, he does not need to rely on a public image to make money.

What he is really worried about is that my mother and I will be implicated, and more people will pay attention to the two of us, labeling us as 'mistress', 'lover', 'illegitimate daughter' and so on.

But what are you afraid of? One day, Mrs. Xu lost her temper. After drinking too much, she came to my mother and I's house to have a brainstorm. She sat on the ground at the door and cried and made trouble. She even threatened us, mother and daughter, by jumping off the building. I personally stay away from my dad.

Although her mother ignored her madness during the whole process, major media news still took a bunch of footage and posted it online and on public accounts with various outrageous titles.
