Xue Heng felt frustrated and tired after hearing this. He leaned on the sofa with his head in his hands and remained motionless.
Xue Ling sighed softly and patted his arm.
"Don't be like this. Be careful to let Uncle Zhilan and Auntie see you. We'll have to break the casserole and ask what's going on.
After we analyze the problem, we have to find a way to solve it."
Xue Heng breathed out in a low voice: "Wait...let me take a moment.
No matter what, we must first call her to confront her, ask her what happened, and ask her if she has been doing this without telling us.
Just like the police handling a case, they must have evidence, then pursue responsibility, and then think about how to deal with it."
At this time, Xue Zhilan carried a small luggage bag, and Le Diandian walked over quickly.
"Ling Ling, are we leaving?
It’s getting dark!”
Xue Ling responded with an "Oh oh" and smiled.
"Uncle, how about this? You and the bodyguard go there first - Ah Heng and I have temporarily decided to go to the city to have dinner with an old friend and discuss some work matters."
"Having trouble at work?"
Xue Zhilanhu asked, looking at his son who looked "very troubled".
Xue Heng's heart was in a state of confusion at this moment, and he didn't know what to say to excuse his father.
Xue Ling had no choice but to bite the bullet and take over from him, telling lies at every turn.
"Yes! The new series of products launched by the group recently are very beautiful, and we plan to improve the outer packaging as well.
Aheng and Duoduo have different opinions, so we plan to find a more professional designer for consultation before deciding on a plan."
"So that's it."
Xue Zhilan asked: "So late?
Must go now?
It’s time for dinner.”
Xue Ling nodded: "The designer is very busy, so we made an appointment to have dinner together and chat.
Uncle, ask the bodyguard to take you to Xinyuan for dinner first, and I will go home later."
"……Yep!"
Xue Heng said: "I will take Lingling into the city together and ask the bodyguard to take you back to Xinyuan."
Xue Zhilan waved his hand: "Okay, I'll go there first.
Don’t be too late, drive carefully.”
"Hey! Okay!"
Xue Ling sent the old man to the car.
Xue Heng had calmed down a lot and used the same reason to deceive the old lady and drove an off-road vehicle from the garage.
"It's peak traffic jam time for commuting to and from get off work."
Xue Ling couldn't help but remind: "What are you doing with such a big car?
Aren’t you afraid of being stuck in traffic for too long?”
Xue Heng replied: "The higher it is, the better the view will be.
Ever since I started driving a big car, I can't go back. Every time I drive a small car, I always feel that it is too low. I don't know if it is because of psychological effects. I always feel that small cars are not very safe."
"It's not a psychological effect."
Xue Ling pointed out ruthlessly: "It's a mental illness."
Xue Heng: "..." Soon, Xue Heng drove the off-road vehicle out of the gate of the community.
"You just said that the young man dyed his hair and smoked, right?"
Xue Ling nodded: "Yes, that man dyed his hair.
Xiaohan is different, she should be wearing a wig."
Xue Heng thought for a while, narrowed his eyes and guessed: "It's dinner time, where do you think they will be?
Could it be near the ‘Gold Medal Class’ tutoring center?”
"Not sure at the moment."
Xue Ling reminded: "She said I would pick her up after eight o'clock. There are still two hours left, so I shouldn't go there to act so soon."
"well!"
Xue Heng couldn't help but sigh again and again, "I always thought that the little princess I gave birth to was a good girl, and she didn't have to be like other parents who would be frightened and anxious all day long, worrying about this and that.
I didn’t expect that one day I would end up searching for my daughter all over the capital! I was afraid that I couldn’t find her, and I was even more afraid of how she would explain it to me after I found her - using a bunch of words about love, love, and love that must be with each other.
It scares me and makes me sick! I can’t even imagine it anymore!”
"Find it first and then talk about it."
Xue Ling said with a smile: "The soldiers are coming to cover up the water and the earth. What are you afraid of!"
Xue Heng laughed bitterly: "At my age, I seem to be afraid of everything.
I am afraid that my parents will be sick and uncomfortable, afraid that they will die, afraid that I will not be able to work with peace of mind, afraid that my daughter will not become a talented person, and afraid that she will not be able to live an easier life in the future."
After Xue Ling heard this, he couldn't help but feel sad secretly.
"Calm down, these are human nature.
We have grown up and our parents have grown old.
When people get old, they will eventually have to die. This is something that everyone must face.
Since ancient times, no one has ever died, right?
Occasionally, I would be secretly afraid, worrying that one day I would wake up and my parents would just...leave away.
But looking back, they had to leave sooner or later.
The only thing you can do is to be as filial to them as possible while they are alive so as not to regret it in the future.
" "me too."
Xue Heng stopped the car and waited for the red light, and whispered: "I am not young anymore, and sometimes I am really unable to do what I do."
Xue Ling couldn't help but suggest: "Take care of the company's affairs and let the confidants below take over.
You might as well retire early like me and try to spend more time with the elderly."
“You——” Xue Heng twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, “What did you do to retire so early?
It’s just the two of us here, you might as well tell me the truth.”
Xue Ling was slightly stunned and then gave up.
"What could be the reason?
I don’t want to make money all my life, I want to take a rest, spend more time with my family, and give myself some opportunities to be lazy.
Didn't I tell you earlier?
This is the truth in my heart.
how?
Otherwise, what do you think it is?"
Xue Heng laughed softly and said: "I thought... you were overwhelmed by the cold at the top, or it was so lonely to stand on the top of the mountain and worry about being invincible, so you just retired."
"fool!"
Xue Lingxiao asked: "Where does the peak come from?
Where is the peak?
There are people outside the world, and there are mountains outside the mountains. Where can I find the top?
Just do what you can and try your best to fight heartily, that's enough.
I never thought about how powerful I wanted to be, nor did I set any peak goals for myself.
My parents and mother-in-law are old and need more company from me.
Duoduo and several senior leaders are very good, and I felt that I could retire, so I did so."
"You retreated so resolutely that you shocked many people!"
Xue Heng said: "A lot of people think you are joking, and some people say you are deliberately retreating in order to advance, letting Duoduo come up and deal with the management vigorously, and then find an excuse to come back and fight again."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows in surprise, then laughed.
“How does it turn out?
He is the new leader of Duoduo. He reorganized the management vigorously and resolutely. It was his own arrangement and I had no involvement at all.
I pushed him to become the president, and he was the number one leader.
He manages and directs the company, so naturally he has the final say.
I already quit, how can I get in?
Have the facts proved that I am back in the world?
Even if I have the will, I don’t have the strength to continue fighting in the world!”
"So they all guessed wrong."
Xue Heng said.
Xue Ling couldn't help but remind: "You are wrong too."
"I...I'm not wrong."
Xue Heng defended: "In my opinion, you have reached the peak, it doesn't matter whether you continue or not."
