My mother had wanted to talk to my father about this several times. Since it was his brother's company and everyone had such a good relationship, even if we don't talk about loyalty, he should at least show some appreciation for all the contributions he had made over the years.
I'm not greedy for how much the salary will increase, but with the burden on my family and tuition fees, shouldn't my salary increase after all these years?
The father couldn't bring himself to do it, believing it to be an act of kidnapping. When he initially wanted to help the other party, he hadn't really thought too much about it; they were all like brothers.
Even if the other person is now the boss and he is the employee, this relationship will not change.
Knowing what her father was thinking, her mother never said those things to him.
The father made all the decisions, and as the head of the family, the mother's most important role was to provide silent support from behind the scenes.
The family took the annual party performance very seriously; if they won first place, they would receive a car.
After working for so many years, I've only been able to make ends meet. I've long dreamed of owning my own car.
The father and mother discussed for most of the day, but couldn't come up with any program that would attract people. However, when it came to work experience, the father could come up with several plans to explain.
However, this proved to be a challenge for the two of them when it came to the program.
The company has many young people, and they are good at performing.
The reward is indeed very tempting, but if the show doesn't generate much buzz, then I'll think it's better to pass.
Originally, the father thought it was fine, since the company had quite a few employees and losing him wouldn't be a big problem.
I think it's appropriate to let my father handle the behind-the-scenes matters.
But I told my boss about this idea.
The boss, however, believed that the father was capable of doing it.
At first, the father didn't understand what the boss meant, saying that having the greatest advantage but not knowing how to use it was a waste.
This also caused the show to lose its biggest highlight.
Later, after the boss explained, the father finally understood what the boss meant.
The two had a very good relationship and had known each other for a long time.
Both sides are well aware of each other's situations.
The other party knew that he liked to sing, and would have his father bring him over to watch when he had free time.
I'm quite familiar with my boss. He's always come to my house during holidays and festivals since I was a child.
Gifts and red envelopes were all included.
The boss meant that the car was originally intended as a gift for his father, but as the company owner, he couldn't just give it away so openly, even if his father was a veteran employee.
It will attract a lot of gossip.
The relationships between people are unclear to others, and even if they are, some things are hard to say.
So, in order to make things fair and aboveboard for his father and avoid gossip, he came up with the idea of having employees compete in a performance at the annual meeting to win rewards.
The boss had great confidence in his father, and also in himself.
The father was also very moved, believing that his hard work over the years had not been in vain, and that even without the superior-subordinate relationship, the other party was still his good brother.
Now that our status and position are different, some things can no longer be done in the same way as before.
We didn't think much about the boss's good intentions.
I would be quite happy to perform singing on a TV show.
On the one hand, it's my own interest, and on the other hand, it can make my father proud.
On the other hand, the family does need a car.
I've been wanting to see the scenery outside for a long time.
It's not that we don't have transportation, but I always feel that it would be better to have our own family car to go see the sights.
That would make the taste even more different.
This was also the first time I went to sing karaoke with a specific purpose in mind.
Fortunately, I did not disappoint them.
The enthusiastic applause from the audience, and that familiar gesture, made it seem like they wanted to sing another song.
I am really happy.
Such an atmosphere always has a captivating charm.
They might even think about what it would be like to fill in their dreams in the future.
Will they write down their wish to become a singer?
Seeing her father nervously taking a photo with his car keys.
My mother and I both laughed.
That day, my father drank a lot because he was very happy.
To take care of her father, but unable to resist the enthusiasm of those people, the mother reluctantly drank a few cups as well.
My mother has a low alcohol tolerance.
After only a few sips, her face turned red.
As for myself.
Since they were still minors, those people didn't target them.
I drank too much.
After the annual meeting ended.
The boss personally drove us home.
Everything was fine at first.
The lingering joy from the annual meeting hadn't faded even after I got home.
However, no one would have expected that this annual meeting would lead to this.
His happy family was suddenly shattered.
The suddenness of the event was not only unacceptable, but it even... became the biggest shadow in one's life.
After the boss took the father home, the mother also felt dizzy and confused because she had drunk a few glasses of alcohol.
He then chatted with his boss.
At that time, I thought the boss was drunk and talking nonsense. He looked scary and made me want to run away.
But before they could react...
But the boss took action.
He told the truth while tearing at the fabric.
I still remember those words.
Very clear.
He never imagined that his father, who had always treated him like a brother, had actually been plotting something like this long ago.
They never realized the other party's purpose.
Only today has he revealed his long-hidden ambition.
I don't understand either.
From when did I become his target?
The other person was very strong and he couldn't break free. If he hadn't drunk too much and hadn't created an opening, he might not have even had a chance to shout.
The mother was not asleep.
Hearing the shouts, they immediately ran out.
Upon seeing the scene before her, the mother instantly sobered up, her expression one of disbelief.
Having known each other for so many years, I never imagined that the other person would be like this.
She never imagined that her daughter would become a target simply because she was cute and sweet from a young age.
It's hard to say how others would feel in that situation.
But the person in front of her was her husband's best brother!
The mother's eyes instantly reddened, and she immediately stepped forward to try to pull him away, while at the same time hitting the boss like a madwoman.
This action directly angered the boss.
In addition, they had been drinking alcohol.
How could a mother possibly be a rival?
With a sudden, forceful slam, the mother's head hit the corner of the table.
Blood immediately flowed all over the ground.
The mother remained motionless.
Upon seeing this, the boss instantly sobered up, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
He no longer cared about what he had wanted to do before, quickly put on his clothes, and hurriedly ran away.
After the father woke up, the mother had already gone into the operating room.
Staggering to the hospital, the father's face showed regret, remorse, anger, and disbelief.
