After returning home, Tang Jia seemed like a different person. The sadness and tears on her face were gone. With a smile on her face, she helped Tang Dong pour a cup of tea.
Recently, the old man loves drinking tea.
"I'm back. Did you go well today?" Tang Dong sat on the recliner, looked at Tang Jia, and asked with concern.
At this moment, Tang Dong looked pretty good. He looked very good and did not look like a dying person at all. But in fact, he could feel the passage of life every day. This feeling made his body feel like a funnel.
The sand is leaking slowly and constantly, and every minute and every second, life is being lost.
"Well, the company went pretty smoothly today." Tang Jia said with a smile.
Tang Dong looked at his favorite granddaughter in front of him, was silent for a while, and sighed: "Are you going to see Mr. Chen today?"
Tang Jia was stunned and looked at Tang Dong, not knowing what to say.
"I also heard from people in the company that you went out today, and I guessed that you went to see Mr. Chen. There are so many things going on in the company now, and you work very hard every day. You even come home late. How can you be so good?
I'm afraid Mr. Chen is the only one who does it."
Tang Jia nodded.
"Yes, grandpa, Mr. Chen and I had a meal."
Tang Dong shook his head, let out a long sigh, and said, "Grandpa knows that you have worked hard for this. If it weren't for my poor health, you wouldn't have to do this."
Tang Dong felt a lot of guilt for his favorite granddaughter in front of him. He had promised his dead son and daughter-in-law that he would take good care of their daughter, but now... she was asked to bear so much all at once, and Tang Dong felt uncomfortable.
"Grandpa, don't say that. These are all things I should do. I am also a member of the Tang family. Now that there is something going on in the family, I should stand up. Besides, sooner or later, I will be the one to do this."
When Tang Dong heard this, he didn't know what to say.
Indeed, in today's Tang family, apart from this granddaughter, there is only son Tang Tao. After the latter enters the official career, it is almost impossible to quit. If he fails, the only person in the family today is Tang Jia.
, except for her, everyone else Tang Dong is not worried either.
Especially those from the side factions, when I was there, they were extremely united, but in reality, they were fighting openly and secretly behind the scenes, and they were scattered and had no cohesion.
If he dies in the future, no matter who among them is left to take charge of the overall situation of the Tang family, the result will not be very good. It is even lucky that the Tang family will not be dismantled.
So only Tang Jia came.
"Mr. Chen is also very busy. If there is nothing to do, we should stop bothering him. This is a family matter after all, and we owe Mr. Chen too much."
Tang Dong has always been very grateful to Chen Qiye. It is precisely because of this that he does not want to trouble the other party too much. Otherwise, he will not be able to rest in peace even if he dies in the future.
"Grandpa, why? Mr. Chen said that if we have any difficulties, we can always come to him and he will help us."
Tang Jia said that in her heart, she has always wanted someone to help her. Although she would not take the initiative to ask for it, she knew that she had someone to rely on behind her so that she could continue to persevere. Otherwise, she would not know the road ahead.
How to go.
I have been very restrained and don't even plan to see Chen Qiye again.
"Alas! In your heart, you must feel that grandpa is also ruthless, right?" Tang Dong glanced at Tang Jia, "Mr. Chen will help our Tang family. This is true, but what can we do to help him? Mr. Chen's
Needless to say, you know that he is not an ordinary person, and there is nothing we can do to help him with what he has to do."
"Besides, he has already helped us too much, why should we continue to trouble him? What will happen to our Tang family?"
Seeing Tang Jia's disappointed look, Tang Dong paused and continued: "Being a human being requires some character. If one day in the future, our Tang family cannot support us, I don't ask for anything else. I just hope that Mr. Chen can keep you safe.
I don’t have any extravagant hopes for anything else.”
Since the first time he went to Yanjing, Tang Dong was keenly aware that Chen Qiye was anything but ordinary. It was at that time that he deliberately kept a distance from him. The purpose at that time was to protect the family from being involved.
, and later I discovered that the Tang family probably wanted to be involved in the matter that Chen Qiye was involved in, but they were not qualified to do so.
After thinking about this, Tang Dong felt relieved, but he still didn't want to have too much contact with Chen Qiye. He was not qualified to interfere in these matters, so he couldn't trouble the other party anymore.
After listening to Tang Dong's words, Tang Jia was silent for several minutes. Finally, he lowered his head, nodded, and said no more.
"Silly girl, grandpa was also young back then and knows what you are thinking, but have you ever thought about whether this matter will have results? If there are no results, can you afford it?"
"Mr. Chen is a big shot, and we cannot reach him."
Tang Jia looked at Tang Dong and said, "Grandpa, you have said this to me many times. Are you afraid that I will forget it?"
Looking up, Tang Jia was already in tears.
She understood the truth of what Tang Dong said, but she just didn't want to accept it, but she had already accepted it in her heart. When Tang Dong said it again, her heart felt like a knife.
"I'm doing it for your own good too."
"I understand that it's for my own good that you don't want me to go to Mr. Chen, and that Mr. Chen doesn't want me to go to him for my own good. But have you ever asked me what I think? I'm willing to do things like yours
Do you accept it?"
"If you don't want to, will you respect my opinion?"
At this moment, Tang Jia's grievances over the past few days burst out.
Previously, this granddaughter, faced with various difficult situations, had never complained to him, nor was she so sad. He almost forgot that this girl, who was under his protection not long ago, now seemed to have grown up all of a sudden.
Much bigger.
Now that he heard what she said, Tang Dong didn't know what to say.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry."
After Tang Jia finished speaking, she turned around and ran upstairs crying.
Seeing his granddaughter's sad look, Tang Dong felt very sad, but he opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. It wasn't that he didn't want to say it, but that he didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Chen, you have helped me Tang Dong a lot. I should thank you, but Jiajia...well, I don't know whether I should thank you or wish you had never appeared."
Tang Dong looked at the already cold tea in front of him and murmured to himself. His whole body suddenly seemed to have aged several years, and his life span was disappearing quickly.
Tang Dong understood Tang Jia's thoughts. People are young, how can they not admire heroes?
Not to mention Tang Jia, when I was young, didn't I have a cardamom girl in my heart that I admired?
But the further you go, the more you understand that there are some things that you really can’t force, or in other words, you are really destined to have no destiny. Even if you love and admire them, what can you do?
It can only be the past.
Now that the family is in such a situation, his end is approaching. Since Tang Jia has become the heir, he can only continue on this matter and this road. There is no second way.
Tang Dong can only act as a bad guy, a villain, so that his granddaughter can give up this idea completely.
They are just ordinary people, so how could they be deeply involved with such a big shot as Chen Qiye?
"The past goes with the wind, it's better to forget the past with the wind!"
