"I won't go to Hong Kong."
Chen Xuelin shook his head, pointed to himself, then to Xiao Xinyi, and said.
"Your mother and I aren't highly educated, and we don't speak the local dialect. Why would you send two old people like us over there?"
"Besides, your dad isn't so old that he can't walk anymore. Seeing that you're doing well this time puts my mind at ease."
Xiao Xinyi nodded and agreed.
“Dongzi, your dad is right. We’re in an unfamiliar place. If you get busy, we won’t even have anyone to talk to. I think we should just give up.”
“Your dad and I will go back to X city in a few days.”
"Mom, Dad, little brother, this..."
Chen Nan stood up, looked at Chen Xuelin and Xiao Xinyi, and finally focused his gaze on Chen Dong.
She can only place her hopes on Chen Dong now.
go back?
While he indulges in a life of pleasure outside, his parents suffer back home.
Is that even human?
In addition, did Chen Dong do so much in the early stages just so that his parents could come here to enjoy a comfortable life?
Of course not!
He knew all too well how far and wide the impact of the upcoming capital-driven womanizing would be.
If things don't go smoothly at home, what if something happens? He doesn't want to have any regrets.
“Dad, Mom, going back is impossible. If you don’t think about yourselves, you should at least think about Xiaoxi and Xiaobei.”
“They are still young. As their older brother, I am now somewhat capable, and I hope they can have enough to eat and wear, and receive the best education.”
“You clearly have money and could easily enjoy life, but you still want to go back, preferring to suffer rather than accept this. That’s called selfishness.”
Chen Dong's words were rather harsh, which is something that he, as a modern person, finds most difficult to understand.
To sum it up in one sentence: living for face leads to suffering!
"Remember, we are family. If you can do what's best for me, I can do what's best for you too."
“I’ll compromise further. If you don’t want to come to Hong Kong with me, you can stay in Shenzhen. I’ll pay for a house for Xiaoxi and Xiaobei, and we’ll find schools here.”
“If you don’t want to retire directly, that’s fine too. I’ll fund the construction of a supermarket, and you can go work there and manage it.”
"Give me a straight answer, or is that not okay?"
At this point, Chen Dong also became a little angry.
Chen Nan and his wife didn't dare to breathe, their eyes fixed on Chen Xuelin and Xiao Xinyi, waiting for them to make a decision.
"Okay, I agree, I'll stay in Pengcheng."
"Go get your father a bottle of Moutai and order a few dishes. He hasn't eaten much."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
This...this changed way too fast!
Xiao Xinyi shoved Chen Xuelin's arm, "Are you crazy? What time is it? You're still eating."
“So what if I drink a bottle of Moutai with my son? Just like he said, it’s a five-cent meal, nothing to worry about.”
"Besides, a bottle of Moutai only costs a few cents, not even a penny."
After Chen Xuelin let go, Chen Dong actually found him somewhat adorable.
"Okay, I'll go arrange it right away."
As long as the problem can be solved, this little bit of money is nothing!
night.
Xiao Xinyi asked curiously, "What exactly happened to you this afternoon?"
Having lived together for over twenty years, she knew Chen Xuelin better than anyone.
There must be a reason why Chen Xuelin suddenly changed his attitude that she didn't know.
Upon hearing this...
Chen Xuelin sighed.
"You've seen our son's situation. If I don't agree, that brat might not let us leave, believe it or not?"
"Besides, have you thought about it? Your son's business is so big now, and as his father, I not only can't help him, but I'm also holding him back. How can you be happy about that?"
“Now he says he’s going to open a supermarket for the two of us. Knowing his personality, it won’t be small.”
At this point, Chen Xuelin's face showed a kind expression, and he spoke gently.
“Although I can’t help him much, as long as this supermarket exists, if his business fails one day, this supermarket will be my son’s hope for a comeback.”
"Old man, you've got quite a few tricks up your sleeve. You almost fooled me."
Xiao Xinyi smiled gently; she wished that this day would never come.
