Xiao Zichen was obviously taken aback. He had made countless conjectures just now, but he had not thought of this incident. Obviously, Xiao Zichen was surprised and more puzzled.
"Si Nian, why do you suddenly want to do this project? You have always studied information technology during college. Your mother and I have always wanted you to manage Yaoyuan Technology in the future."
"Dad, I will still keep an eye on Yaoyuan's affairs, but I don't want to give up on the Nanyun City project. Dad, I have been interning at Sino-Ocean Real Estate during my graduate school, and Nanyun City has a lot of significance for me.
Special meaning.”
Mas young said with a firm expression on his face.
Xiao Zichen did not respond immediately, but remained silent for a long time.
"Si Nian, do you plan to avoid Luo Luo for the rest of your life?"
As expected of someone who has come before, Xiao Zichen understood Mas Nian’s thoughts at a glance. Although Nanyun City was of special significance to him, there were so many projects in Nanyun City. Why did Mas Nian choose the tourism project? Because among those projects
Only this project requires him to stay there for a long time, just like three years ago when he suddenly asked to go to an overseas branch.
Masnian did not panic when his thoughts were exposed. He also knew that his thoughts could not be hidden from his fiery-eyed father.
Masnian took a sip of tea and didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it either, but said.
"Dad, please agree to my request."
There was no response, but such a categorical plea. Xiao Zichen frowned, looked at the son in front of him who looked more and more like him, sighed softly, and then asked.
"Si Nian, tell dad the truth, do you love Luoluo?"
Masnian, who was pouring tea, shook his hand slightly, and a drop of water spilled on the coffee table, but he quickly calmed down, then steadily added tea to the teacup in front of Xiao Zichen, and then spoke quietly.
"Dad, Luoluo is the most important family member to me and the sister I am willing to do anything to protect."
This answer obviously did not satisfy Xiao Zichen. Xiao Zichen shook his head lightly and said.
"Si Nian, if your father asks you to marry Luo Luo, will you agree?"
When Xiao Zichen asked this question, his eyes kept staring at Masnian.
I saw a complicated light flashing in Mas Nian's deep eyes. Xiao Zichen sighed softly and continued.
"But in that case, you may not be happy for the rest of your life."
There was a trace of helplessness in Xiao Zichen's calm tone. If they only considered Xiao Yingxi's feelings, they could use the nurturing grace of more than twenty years to ask Masnian to marry Luoluo, but after all, they did not want to embarrass this child.
Masnian was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Xiao Zichen in surprise.
At this time, Xiao Zichen smiled faintly, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Masnian, and then said.
"Three years ago, after we learned about Luoluo's thoughts about you, we had this idea. I believe you also know the story of how your mother and I first met. We almost had to leave a lifelong legacy for our mistakes.
It’s a pity, so in the end, your mother and I respected your idea and chose to let you go abroad.”
Having said this, Xiao Zichen stood up, walked to the window, glanced sideways at Masnian, who lowered his head and said nothing, and then continued.
"Si Nian, your mother and I have always wanted the three of you to find your own happiness. You, Yingze, and Luoluo are not related by blood. To be honest, it would be better for Luoluo to marry another man.
, it would be better to marry one of you two. After all, your mother and I watched you grow up and know your temperaments. Moreover, based on your and Yingze’s personalities, I think you are the most suitable person to stay in.
The person next to Luoluo, do you understand?"
Having said this, Xiao Zichen turned around, walked slowly to Masnian's side, patted him on the shoulder, and continued.
"Si Nian, we don't know why you dare not face up to your inner feelings, but since you can't get over that hurdle, your mother and I won't force you. We won't force you to marry Luo Luo. As for you going to Nan
We have to discuss the matter in Yuncheng with your mother. If she doesn't agree, then you will have no choice but to stay in Luo City, do you understand?"
When Masnian heard this, he nodded silently, but didn't say a word. He sat there for a long time, until a text message popped up on his phone, and then he stood up from the sofa.
"Dad, I'm leaving first."
With that said, Masnian walked towards the door, but after taking only two steps, he was stopped by Xiao Zichen.
"Si Nian, you and that Miss Ou..."
When Xiao Zichen said this, he paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and then said again.
"Si Nian, as a man, you can't use women to escape problems. Women's youth is very precious, and it has been wasted."
After Masnian heard this, he turned around and said directly.
"Dad, tomorrow Qianyi and I will go to Huacheng to meet her parents. After that, we will prepare to get engaged."
When Xiao Zichen heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He thought that Masnian brought Ou Qianyi back just as a shield. Why are they still engaged now? Could it be that they were wrong.
"Si Nian, do you know what you are doing?"
In addition to being surprised, Xiao Zichen was even more angry. Is this son going to follow his old path?
Masnian did not turn around, but nodded lightly and replied.
"Dad, I have thought clearly. A year ago, Qianyi and I got together. After getting along, we are just like you and mom. We never have any quarrels. Isn't this the most harmonious relationship?
"
Hearing this, Xiao Zichen sneered, walked over, patted Masnian on the shoulder and said.
"Si Nian, that's because you and I have already experienced the cruelest separation of life and death. Others are not important to us, but you and Miss Ou... Hey, there is no couple in this world who doesn't quarrel.
Couple, unless you never care who or what kind of person that person is, do you understand?"
After hearing this, Masnian fell into a brief silence, but did not speak after all, and then left the office.
Looking at Mas Nian who left resolutely, Xiao Zichen let out a long sigh. He didn't know whether he and Mo Yurou's so-called respect for their children's choices was right or not.
At this time, in an office building almost five kilometers away from Sino-Ocean Group, Lu Ziyou walked out of the office of the president of their publishing house holding a thick document.
As soon as Lu Ziyou walked out of the office, three or four young people gathered around him.
"Boss, what does the president say? Have these copies been approved?"
A girl who looked about twenty-one or twelve years old came up to Lu Ziyou, stared at Lu Ziyou expectantly and asked.
Lu Ziyou's face darkened, he sighed, threw the document in his hand to the girl in front of him, and then said in a depressed voice.
"None of them passed. These are all old-fashioned storylines. Look at this, the plot of the domineering president was outdated more than ten years ago. I really don't know how you had the confidence to bring it to me and give it to the president.
.Hurry and search again. There are so many online writers now. As long as you use your energy, you will definitely be able to find good stories."
As she said that, Lu Ziyou looked at the busy public office area and saw other groups busy one by one. As for their group, their momentum was sluggish because she, the editor-in-chief, had too little qualifications and only had some young online writers at her disposal.
Thinking of this, Lu Ziyou took a long breath, his eyes flashed, and there was a hint of perseverance on his face, and he spoke.
"Everyone, cheer up. Although we don't have many well-known writers, don't those writers start as newcomers? Go back and read through the ones you are serializing. Maybe you can find a hidden gem in the ocean."
After Lu Ziyou finished speaking, he turned and walked towards his office.
At this time, an exclamation came from behind.
"Look, Master Gu Mo has updated his Weibo. Oh my god, he is going to publish a new book."
"Editor-in-Chief, come over and take a look."
A sunny boy ignored the silence of the office and shouted loudly. Lu Ziyou stopped when he heard Gu Mo's name, then turned around and walked to the boy's desk.
"Editor-in-Chief, look, Master Gu Mo is looking for a publisher to cooperate in publishing a new book, and he will also authorize exclusive serialization. Should we give it a try?"
As soon as the boy said his words, the editors in other groups in the office sneered, and one of the editors with some seniority said even more arrogantly.
"Zhang Jun, do you really dare to say, who is Gu Mo? A top writer with an annual copyright income of over 100 million, who can meet his editor, who is not a person with rich qualifications in this circle? In our publishing house, there should be only
Editor Lan and our president can meet him. Editor Lu, although you are also the editor-in-chief of our agency, after all, you have not been in office for a long time and have little experience. It is difficult to meet someone like Gu Mo, let alone meet him once.
It would be difficult to get his contact information."
