Tong Yu had almost eaten, picked up the tissue on the table, wiped his mouth, took another sip of the drink, leaned back on the chair, and looked at Ai Xin, who continued to struggle with food.

I don't know why, every time he sees Ai Xin eating, he always thinks that she looks like a little girl who has been hungry for a long time. Although I can't say it's embarrassing, I always feel a little too self-indulgent.

"What are you laughing at?"

Ai Xin was halfway through eating, but when she raised her head, she just happened to see Tong Yu's eyes staring straight at her, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth that she didn't have time to retract.

"Nothing. Tong Yu shook his head with a smile and looked at her again, "By the way, what do your parents do?"

As soon as the words came out, Tong Yu regretted it.

It's not because this is like checking the household registration, it seems to be a bit gossip, Tong Yu feels that with the relationship between the two of them now, such small talk is not too much.

The reason why he regretted it was that after asking, Ai's heart was stiff, which made him feel that he had asked the wrong thing. That's right, if she wanted to talk about herself, she would say, she hadn't heard her take the initiative to mention her parents for so long, how could she be so confused and ask without a head.

"......" Ai Xin was silent for a while, his throat moved up and down, and then he struggled to squeeze a sentence out of his throat, "A few years ago, I passed away. ”

Tong Yu was stunned for a moment, he thought that Ai Xin was reluctant to mention it because his parents were divorced, or like those rich people in the TV series, he fought for the family property every day, but he didn't expect it to be such a reality......

"I'm sorry. Tong Yu lowered his chin slightly, looking at the expression on her face, his heart overflowed with infinite guilt, "Tao Li said before that they went on a trip when you graduated from college, I thought it was ......"

"Nothing. Ai Xin put down the chopsticks in his hand, shook his head, and showed a relieved smile again, "He was afraid that I would be embarrassed, so he found a reason casually." ”

"Ah......" Tong Yu reacted at this time, why Ai Xin's expression looked so embarrassed at that time, but he didn't open his mouth to explain.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mention it before because I was afraid to see your expression. Ai Xin touched the back of his head, wanting to ease the atmosphere, "I wanted to find a chance to tell you, but I always felt that I was a bit miserable when I said this." ”

Tong Yu shook his head, wanting to say that it was nothing, but he felt that Ai Xin made sense, so he subconsciously nodded again.

"You...... Do you want to shake your head or nod?" Ai Xin couldn't help but laugh as he looked at his lost soul.

"Nothing. Tong Yu shrugged.

He understood this feeling too well, his father's early death when he was a child, and the hard life with his mother did not make him feel any inferiority, but every time he saw the pity of others, it was difficult for him to accept. Even if there was no father in this family, his mother still fed and clothed him, and he still earned a lot of money to make his mother live a good life, and he didn't understand why when he mentioned it, others would look at him with a pitiful look, as if losing his father was a defect. Because of this, he didn't want to talk too much about the affairs of the family.

"That ......" Tong Yu hesitated, looked at Ai Xin's reluctant smile again, and couldn't help but open his mouth, "My father, when I was very young, also passed away......"

"Hmm. Ai Xin nodded, "I know." ”

"You know?" Tong Yu was stunned, and suddenly remembered that these things had probably been written in previous gossip magazines or something.

"Well, I should have seen it in a magazine. Ai Xin opened his mouth, and it was really similar to what Tong Yu guessed.

"Even if they're gone, they're probably bless us in their own way. Tong Yu took a sip of the water in front of him, with a hint of hoarseness in his voice, "After all, parents love their children unconditionally. ”

Ai Xin glanced at him and didn't respond, just silently took a sip of tea and looked out the window.

Dow.

Night had fallen, and the neon lights outside the window flashed with all kinds of brilliance, hitting Tao Shengyang's face through the glass, so that Tao Li couldn't see what his expression was suggesting.

"Anyway, I'm determined this time. ”

Tao Li rubbed his fingers a little nervously, but looking at his father's face still carried the stubbornness of a teenager.

"Didn't you be very resolute last time?"

Tao Shengyang leaned back in the swivel chair and looked at him with some disdain.

"I don't understand, why are you against this?" Tao Li raised his volume slightly, with incomprehensible doubts in his voice, "You and my mother both like Ai Xin very much, I can see that this is not a joke." She's independent, she doesn't want my money, she's capable, and she doesn't have a black history, I don't understand what you're not satisfied with?"

"I'm not satisfied?" Tao Shengyang laughed, "Let's not mention that I'm not satisfied, do people like you?"

"......" Tao Li was poked in the sore spot, and was silent for a while before raising his head to look at him again, "Without the consent of the two of you, I wouldn't even be qualified to pursue it." ”

Tao Shengyang looked at his son in front of him who was depressed but persistent, and couldn't help but sigh: "Tao Li, I'm very disappointed in you." ”

Tao Li looked at him with some puzzlement, he didn't want to pursue any female star or small Internet celebrity, but Ai Xin, a girl who was almost perfect and knew the roots, why would his father say that.

"You're all this age, don't you understand, what does your marriage mean to the Tao family?" Tao Shengyang stretched out his hands, rubbed them on his temples, and couldn't help frowning, "Do you know how many people outside are eyeing our family? Do you know how many people are waiting to see me go into the water? Do you know how many people flatter me on the surface, but have been quietly buying the company's shares behind my back?"

"I know, but what does this have to do with me falling in love?"

"You're in love, I've never cared about you, right?" Tao Shengyang glanced at him, "But for Ai Xin, you don't just want to fall in love, right?"

"Hmm. Tao Li nodded.

"Your marriage can only be helpful to Dow. If you can't achieve a win-win situation, maybe Dow will disappear forever in your hands......"

"That's what I don't understand. Tao Li propped up his chin and looked at Tao Shengyang, "Ai Xin is rich and has the ability to manage the company, why do you just disagree." ”

"Call you stupid, you're really stupid!" Tao Shengyang was so angry that he almost couldn't hold the cigar in his hand steadily, and looked at his uncompetitive son with wide eyes, "Are assets and money the same thing?

"After all...... Tao Li snorted coldly and looked at his father, "You still look down on her fatherless and motherless, right?"

"According to your logic, it is. Tao Shengyang lit his cigar, nodded, and looked at him mockingly, "But I still have to remind you, don't scold yourself too." ”

"Heh, you look down on me, I'm going to make some achievements to show you. ”

Tao Li picked up the bag, stood up and was about to open the door to leave, stood at the door and glanced at his father again, but turned his head and opened the door and went out.

Tao Shengyang took a puff of his cigar, but he was not annoyed, turned his chair, and looked at the various lights flashing outside the window. Maybe one day, Dow's signboard won't be able to be saved.
