Mr. Qin actually knew he couldn't blame his son, but... he needed something to keep going.
Until Wan Ge said, "Qin Nian's mother risked her life to give birth to him, only to be treated like this by you. How heartbroken she would be if she knew."
This sentence instantly reminded him of how his wife, before she passed away and was still able to speak, had repeatedly told him to take good care of their children after he was gone.
But she didn't… she didn't take good care of him or love him properly. Yes, how disappointed she must have been…
He had long wanted to mend his relationship with his son, but he was too stubborn and refused to back down.
Now... he deserves to have ended up in this situation.
…
“Sir, you could say a few more words when you’re talking to the young master.”
"I...I don't know what to do." Yes, he didn't know what to do. He clearly had a son, but he didn't know how to communicate with him.
"Normal communication is fine," the butler replied softly.
"Do you think he will forgive me?" Mr. Qin asked cautiously.
The butler replied, "What grudge could a father and son hold against each other overnight?"
"Is that so?" But... Mr. Qin felt that Qin Nian would not forgive him.
"Sir, you shouldn't think too much about it. The day after tomorrow is Saturday. Perhaps we should prepare some gifts for Mr. Yun, Mrs. Yun, and Miss Yun."
Mr. Qin realized what was happening and said, "You're right, we should prepare some gifts."
So Mr. Qin started to worry about what gift to prepare, and how to give the betrothal gifts when they got married.
Mr. Qin, still unsure of what to do, began to consult his business partner.
His overseas partners may not understand their customs, but he still has many partners in China, even though they are all working on overseas projects.
…
Saturday arrived quickly. Mr. Qin arrived at the agreed location early, and soon after, Qin Nian and Wan Ge arrived as well, followed by Mr. Yun and Mrs. Yun.
When Mr. Yun saw Mr. Qin, he immediately said, "Old classmate, it's been a long time."
Although he knew that his son-in-law and this old classmate were not particularly close, it was still a meeting between the two sets of parents, and it was better not to bring up some things.
"Long time no see." Mr. Qin extended his hand, and the two quickly shook hands.
At this moment, Mr. Qin immediately had the gifts brought up: "This is the first time I've met your wife and daughter. I've prepared some gifts for you as a small token of my appreciation."
Mr. Yun looked at the top-quality wine, indicating that the other party knew something about him. The gifts given to Mrs. Yun and Wan Ge were also designed by top jewelry designers. Although it wasn't appropriate to open the gifts in front of them, the design of the boxes clearly showed that they were made of Liancheng jewelry.
Mr. Qin then said to Mr. Yun, "I heard before that you like to drink, so I asked someone to bring you a bottle. I still have quite a few left, I'll send them to you later."
"Thank you for your help. We've also prepared a gift for you." Since it's a meeting between the two families, Mr. Yun naturally prepared a gift as well.
After dinner, Mr. Qin discussed with them the things they needed to prepare for their wedding, as well as the issue of the bride price.
Mr. Yun knew about this. Yesterday, when he was signing a contract with a friend, he mentioned to him that Mr. Qin had inquired about the bride price and customs.
Although neither of them knew that Qin Nian was Mr. Qin's child, Mr. Yun did! Moreover, they had arranged to meet on Saturday, so he knew very well that the other party was asking this question about his family.
When Mr. Qin got married, his father-in-law's family did not approve, so things got a bit tense. Although these issues were later resolved, things have changed over time, so it's normal to have some questions now.
Moreover, he's been abroad for so long, he probably forgot some things.
His business partner muttered to himself, "I wonder who his son will marry."
At the time, Mr. Yun didn't say anything, but decided to give them a surprise.
…
Actually, both families are very close, and Mr. Qin has absolutely no objection to the elegy, nor would he dare to have any objection.
As for Mr. Yun, he didn't really like Qin Nian's family situation, but his daughter liked it, so they had no choice but to agree.
So there's nothing to argue about between them. The only issue is that Mr. Qin wanted to give more, but Mr. Yun didn't want to give too little, which led to a slight disagreement.
In the end, Wan Ge said it didn't matter, it was just a formality.
She is an only child, and Qin Nian is an only child; her future is his, and his future is hers.
So is there a problem with how to give it? Just give it in a respectable way, so that others know how much they value it.
Mr. Yun felt that his daughter was right, and Mr. Qin also felt that his daughter-in-law was reasonable, so there was nothing to argue about, and the two sides quickly reached an amicable agreement.
…
When Wan Ge and Qin Nian announced their marriage, everyone else was stunned.
Can someone tell him that Qin Nian is going to marry the eldest daughter of the Yun family? No wonder the Yun family was so supportive when Qin Nian made his comeback.
Wait! Wait!
Wait a minute? Qin Nian is the heir to a well-known overseas conglomerate? So it's true that he went home to inherit the family fortune after failing to become an idol?
Nobody told them that Qin Nian's family background was so powerful!
When Li Song saw this, his face turned pale, and he felt extremely unwilling. Why was Qin Nian so lucky? Why didn't Shi Mengyin poison him and make him mute?
Nothing good has happened to him since he came back. Now, the Shi family is not only not helping him, but also suppressing him everywhere. He has practically been sidelined.
Li Song went to the place where he was getting a free meal once, hoping to see Shi Mengyin, but she refused to see him.
Shi Mengyin asked someone to tell him that she regretted doing so much for him back then.
Shi Mengyin often woke up in prison with tears in her eyes; she had made a mistake and she regretted it.
…
Three years later, after becoming pregnant, Wange resigned and began to take over the company's affairs. She said that the company always needed someone to manage it, so she returned to the company.
The Shi family's overseas companies had long been failing due to Mr. Qin's constant suppression.
Just as the domestic company was starting to show promise, Wange took over and began competing with him again.
Less than six months later, before Wan Ge took a leave of absence to prepare for childbirth, the Shi family filed for bankruptcy.
Shi Jingting asked to meet with her, and Wan Ge went to see him anyway.
Looking at Wan Ge, who was about to give birth, Shi Jingting was somewhat puzzled: "Why?"
