Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1512: Chapter 885: Visiting

"Whether he’s stronger than Ye Xuan or not, it’s too early to judge now." The originally furious Vice Chairman Qian suddenly calmed down. "Qian Xia, since you were born as my son, you have to get used to accepting my arrangements."

"Why should I?" Anger surged in Qian Xia’s eyes. "I’m not your private property. I have my own independent personality and thoughts. What gives you the right to meddle in my life?"

"I already said it—because you’re my son." Vice Chairman Qian said as he dialed the outside line. "Xiao Liu, arrange a car to go to Liangyou Nursing Home."

"Go by yourself." Qian Xia said as he stood up and walked out.

"Stop right there!" Vice Chairman Qian left his chair and slowly walked to his son, sizing him up from head to toe. "You little bastard!"

"Dad..." Qian Xia looked at him, completely speechless. "I came all this way, and you still can’t act normal for once?"

"You came here just to piss me off?"

"I came out of good intentions to talk some sense into you." Qian Xia said as he pushed Vice Chairman Qian back toward his seat. Once they were seated, his expression turned serious. "I asked you to go to the nursing home to take a look, not to make things hard for Luo Ye."

These days Xiao Ru has been with Luo Ye all along. She’s told me a lot about Luo Ye. She’s such a kind girl—can you really bear to hurt her?

Dad, I know that in your position you have to consider more sides to everything, but sometimes things don’t necessarily unfold the way you’ve deduced.

If you keep stubbornly pushing ahead like this, the consequences might end up far beyond anything you’ve anticipated. In the end, you could hurt others and yourself.

Vice Chairman Qian didn’t fly into a rage this time; instead he studied his son. After a long moment, he said, "Besides Xiao Ru, who else has been talking to you?"

Qian Xia shook his head helplessly. "Dad, in your heart, am I just some kind of marionette with not the slightest bit of my own judgment?"

"Don’t you think your changes are a bit too drastic?" Vice Chairman Qian snorted coldly. "I still know what kind of temper my own son has."

"My changes come from my own growth. Forget it, whatever I say now you won’t listen anyway. Dad, do whatever you want, I’m not getting involved."

"Ring ring ring..."

Vice Chairman Qian picked up the call, answered briefly, then stood up and walked out. "If you’re not at ease with what I’m doing, then come with me to the nursing home."

All the way there, father and son both kept silent. The driver and the secretary were smart enough to shrink themselves a little, trying to reduce their sense of presence to the lowest level.

Qian Xia glanced at the two cars behind them, both following with their hazard lights on, curled his lip, then turned his head to look out the window.

Vice Chairman Qian’s lips moved, but in the end he didn’t say anything. His son had grown up; some things were gradually leaving their original track. He had said he would put himself in a listening posture—whether the words actually got through or not was beyond his control.

Still, thinking carefully about what his son had said, it did seem to carry a certain amount of logic.

Could it be that what he’d been insisting on all this time was wrong?

Impossible!

Throughout history, how many bouts of turmoil have arisen from the unchecked expansion of private interest groups? Even though the final holders of power ultimately prevailed, the price paid was just as devastating.

He would never allow such a thing to happen. No matter what others think, whether they choose to protect themselves or not, he definitely won’t.

Doing his utmost to keep the public safe is more important than anything. Life is only a few short decades—what difference do a few more years or less really make?

Thinking like this, the stubborn resolve in his heart firmed up again. Today, he was going to personally meet that young girl. Even if it was a bit beneath his status, the importance of that girl was right there in front of him. Acting like this was absolutely worth it!

...

In the banquet hall of Liangyou Nursing Home, Luo Lian, serving as the guest host, had just reached the part where the newlyweds make their vows.

"...Whether in good times or bad, in poverty or wealth, in sickness or in health, are you willing to stay by Yue Qin’s side without ever abandoning her, to protect her and take care of her?"

Qi Xing gazed deeply at his beautiful bride beside him. "I am!"

Some comrades immediately protested:

"Louder, we can’t hear you!"

"Mr. Qi, if you’re a real man, don’t mumble like a mosquito."

"Exactly. Sis-in-law, Qi Zhengwei’s heart clearly isn’t sincere—don’t agree to him!"

"..."

Qian Jiale just laughed and spread his hands toward Qi Xing, the implication being: That’s what you get for keeping the news locked up so tightly before. The brothers are angry; you think it’s going to be that easy for you to pass?

Luo Lian gave a helpless smile and lifted the microphone. "I completely agree with everyone’s suggestion, but let’s first let the bride finish her vow. As for the groom, well, there’s still tonight, right?"

"Okay!"

"Okay!"

The powerful shouts infected the friends-and-family section and all the elderly men and women sitting further back, who joined in with loud calls of their own.
