Chapter 157: Stepmother's son(10)
World Six. Stepmother's son (10)
"Mi Mi, did you put that report on the table in my study?"
Xue Wangui's words broke the quiet atmosphere.
On the long table, there is a delightful meal for one person, exquisitely presented, and although the food is authentic Chinese, it is not sloppy at all.
Xue Mi's dining etiquette is very good. Xue Wangui was rich overnight, and his family background was not deep. He suffered a lot of disadvantages when he integrated into the circle. He was often laughed at behind his back and said he was uneducated. Although these voices that followed Xue Wangui's disappeared as he gradually became more and more successful, but Xue Wangui kept it in his heart.
For this reason, although Xue Wangui pampered his daughter, he attached great importance to Xue Mi's manners and rules, and had teachers teach her from a young age. Later, although Xue Wangui married Ding Rou with selfish intentions, he also had the idea of planning for his daughter.
Ding Rou has followed him in and out of various occasions as a secretary over the years, and she has long been familiar with the ways of the circle. It would be better for her to lead Xue Mi and keep her company.
Xue Wangui's thinking was simple but clear.
In fact, after the death of his ex-wife, he went to the hospital for sterilization, so Xue Wangui will have only one child in his life, Xue Mi, and there will be no one else to shake Xue Mi's position.
In such a state, the advantages of a marriage with Ding Rou far outweighed the disadvantages.
Although many people said that Xue Wangui's fortune in his early years was due to the good luck of his ancestors, but he was able to stand firm in the ups and downs of the business world for 20 years, and his methods and depth of thoughts were naturally unmatched by ordinary people.
Ding Rou did make him tempted, but for Xue Wangui, who had already passed his impulsive adolescence, his daughter was the most important thing.The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
He had to pave the way for Xue Mi first.
Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang, the mother and son were the best candidates for Xue Wangui.
He looked at Xue Mi lovingly. Although his face was serious, when facing his daughter, the tenderness in Xue Wangui's eyes was always shown without hesitation.
"Yes." Putting down the chopsticks, Xue Xue calmly met her father's gaze. "I put them there."
It was as if the father and daughter seemed to be playing a riddle.
Ding Rou looked at her husband and then at her daughter, with a gentle smile on her well-maintained face.
"What are you whispering about?"
The tone was not unpleasant at all, just like a normal inquiry.
Ding Rou's eyelids jumped, and a bad premonition flashed in her heart.
Sure enough.
"Dad, don't you want me to listen to Aunt Ding more? I think what Aunt Ding said must be reasonable." Xue Xue turned her head, her expression innocent and her tone innocent. "So if Aunt Ding really thinks so, then I have to listen to her advice and go to the company to study first."
If she didn't know Xue Mi's temperament like the back of her hand, Ding Rou almost thought she was laughing at her.
Xue Xue looked at Ding Rou's face, which was clearly furious but a little distorted because she wanted to maintain her image.
For a moment, their gazes seemed to spark, but Xue Wangui, the head of the family, was too happy to notice.
"Are you telling the truth? Mi Mi really wants to study in the company?"
"Wellif Aunt Ding"
"Of course she is serious!" Xue Wangui interrupted Xue Xue and said directly. "You can come to the company with me tomorrow."
"So soon?"
Ding Rou and Xue Xue asked in unison. Xue Wangui looked at his wife and then at his daughter with a smile on his face.
"It's better to seize the oppotunity, isn't it?"
[T/N: (zrbrzhungr): lit. carefully setting an auspicious date does not beat seizing an opportunity (idiom) / fig. seize the occasion]
"Alright then." Xue Xue was reluctant, but she did not forget her business. "Dad, the report I showed you"
"No problem, you can do whatever you want, it's just about money. How can it be more important than my daughter's happiness?"
This is what Xue Xue was waiting for. Xue Wangui, who is over the moon, is agreeable to almost all his daughter's request.
"Thank you Dad, you are so kind to me."
"That's matter of fact, you are my daughter, and if I am not good to you, who should I be good to?"
The happy atmosphere between father and daughter was torture to Ding Rou, who was left aside. .
She couldn't figure out how the situation became completely different with just these few words?
