Nan Zhenguo chatted with the master until very late before coming out of the study. He respectfully sent the master out and then asked Aunt Ying to wake up Nanxi, who had already gone to bed.
"Dad, can't you wait until tomorrow to tell me what's going on? My beauty sleep is very important." Nan Xi sat down on the sofa in the study angrily. She didn't go to sit on the armchair opposite Nan Zhenguo. She just complained with a cold face from a distance of several meters away.
"You're becoming more and more unruly. Look at you, how can you still look like a lady from a noble family?" Although Nan Zhenguo was talking about her, there was no anger in his tone.
"As long as my dad is rich enough, I can be whatever kind of lady I want." She scratched her hair lazily and looked at the man opposite her with moist eyes.
"Dad, I saw my eldest cousin bought a private yacht and showed it off on WeChat Moments. It's pretty nice. I want one too." She raised her eyes and looked at her calm and indifferent father with her beautiful eyes and eyebrows.
"Xixi, Dad has long told you not to learn the ways of those dandies. Those people have no foundation and indulge in vulgar pursuits all day long. Their wealth will not last beyond three generations, and even if they have money, they can't keep it.
Don't worry, all the money Daddy earns will be yours in the future, but before that, you must learn to manage and utilize wealth, rather than being swept away by it, understand?"
Nanxi smiled meaningfully, "Dad, that Korean woman is still young, at the prime childbearing age. Who can predict what will happen in the future? Shouldn't I take advantage of this moment while you still feel a little guilty about me and make more money?"
The man opposite him remained calm and composed. "If you mind her so much, I can send her away. She's just a woman who wants to keep you entertained."
"Forget it. If she's gone, there will be others. It's my old father who has been so handsome since he was young. Even at the age of fifty, he's still so charming."
Nanxi sighed, stepped forward and sat opposite Nan Zhenguo, and asked curiously,
"Dad, you're so handsome and rich, why do you only have me as your child? Logically, you should have many illegitimate children. Why don't you tell me the truth? That way, when we fight for the family fortune in the future, I'll be mentally prepared and at least know how many opponents I'll have."
Nan Zhenguo's deep eyes showed some emotion, "When you were three years old, your mother misunderstood that I had an affair with a woman. From then on, she wouldn't let me into the room. She wouldn't listen to my explanations. You know, she suffers from depression and lives in her own world. Whatever she believes is true.
She argued with me for a long time, and finally she said that if I went to the hospital for a sterilization, she would believe me. In the end, I went and had the surgery, but she still felt that I had made a fake surgery order to deceive her.
Speaking of Nanxi's mother Shangguan Yunqing, Nan Zhenguo's fingers began to tremble slightly.
"It's really sad that Mom married you." Nanxi pursed her lips, tears in her eyes, "Dad, don't be angry. As a husband, you're indeed a failure, but as a father, you're not that bad, only about 50 points."
Some things are difficult to evaluate simply with right or wrong. Even if a conclusion is reached, the outcome cannot be changed. Instead, such a nonchalant statement feels like needles piercing one's heart.
"Xixi, there are too many love-hate entanglements between your mother and me. She refused to forgive me until her death, and I have never forgotten her until now. I may be cold-blooded, but cold-blooded people are still blood, and they can have feelings. All the feelings in my life disappeared with your mother's departure."
"The lack of feelings doesn't stop you from finding a woman, does it? Dad, shouldn't Mom resent you? You used all the tricks to marry her, but after marrying her, you didn't know how to love her well, letting her gradually wither away in the repeated self-consumption.
I can feel that Mom has feelings for you, but those feelings disappeared long ago when you watched your grandparents and uncles being murdered."
From childhood to adulthood, Nanxi had never told her father about her mother, let alone the relationship problems between him and her mother. She put herself in the perspective of a child and hypnotized herself not to care about her parents' relationship problems. But now, when she grew up, she realized how desperate and ignorant her mother was, and she began to hate her father.
"Xixi, back then I had to ensure the safety of the Nan family first. I didn't say I wouldn't save your uncle and his family, it was just not the right time. Later, I had already made plans and obtained evidence to re-examine the Shangguan family's case, but your uncle was beaten to death in prison, and your grandfather died of a cerebral hemorrhage after finding out..."
Nan Zhenguo lit a cigar and took two impatient puffs. "Maybe this is God's punishment for me. Your mother misunderstood me again and again, making me unable to find love in my life. Yun'er is so stupid. She wants revenge on me. I have no complaints about anything she has done to me. Why would she be so desperate as to take her own life to avenge me?"
"I think she's stupid, too." Nanxi said with a cold smile, "The grass hasn't even grown on her grave yet, and you're bringing a woman into your house. You're not stupid."
"Xixi, I haven't touched any of those women. I only touched them for fun. Han Yingna was drugged because of me. I kept her because she was homeless and had no ambitions.
She is timid and obedient, and never dares to provoke you. Besides, she can't get pregnant. Daddy is old and sometimes lonely, so he just treats her as an obedient pet."
Nanxi usually just listened to what Nan Zhenguo said and ignored it. Who knew whether what he said was true or not?
He always says that his mother doesn't love him, but his mother clearly told him how great and outstanding his father was, and her eyes were full of admiration. How could those words be said by a woman who doesn't love him?
It's not just mom who lives in her own world, isn't he the only one?
"Whatever you want." She curled her lips and sighed softly, "You raised me up. Even though you didn't pay much attention to me, you never treated me badly. I can't deprive you of the happiness of your later years. As long as you are happy, that's all."
"You're being disrespectful." Nan Zhenguo gave her a helpless look. "You're getting more and more disrespectful as you get older. Just play around with your gallery. Get ready and come with me to Myanmar tomorrow."
Nanxi frowned and said, "Dad, Naypyidaw is a ghost town. There is not even a car on the road in broad daylight. I don't want to go there."
"Your brother told you that I want to take you back to Naypyidaw?" When Nan Zhenguo mentioned Nan Suzhi, his face always became more complicated.
Nanxi played with the tea pet on the table and said, "Don't worry about who said it. I'm not going anyway."
"Xixi, keep your distance from Suzhi. If it's not necessary, don't contact him again. There are some things that Daddy is not convenient to say now, but you are Daddy's biological daughter, Daddy will not harm you."
Nan Zhenguo paused for a few seconds, "Besides, we are not going to Naypyidaw, but to Yangon. The master said that the Sunny City in Southeast Asia is the next glorious place for our Nan family."
