Chapter 479: Meeting Zhao Xiaohua

~7 min read 1,334 words

I just want Ru Meng to know this sense of honor.

Let her know her identity is different.

Only then will she consciously do some things.

I brought Ru Meng and Xiao Shitou through the crowd.

We quickly arrived at the office on the ninth floor.

Here is my familiar office.

As soon as we reached the ninth floor, we saw Zhao Xiaohua rushing out in a fluster.

"Brother, how did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

She quickly ran to my side.

She hugged me tightly, like close brothers.

I looked at Zhao Xiaohua,

"Xiaohua, I've come to see how you're managing Da Heng Group."

"Brother, rest assured, I'll follow your previous path. When you arrive, I'll immediately hand over the chairman's position to you. Brother, come, let's talk in the office." Zhao Xiaohua pulled my hand.

We then followed Zhao Xiaohua into my former office.

The office is still the same,

my things are still there,

Zhang Zong didn't move them before, and now Zhao Xiaohua hasn't moved them either.

They are quietly waiting for me to return.

I looked at the display shelf behind the desk, where various trophies I had won were placed.

Then I pointed with my hand to show Ru Meng.

Perhaps even if I told Ru Meng about my past glorious deeds, she wouldn't believe it.

Only these honorable trophies can prove my past.

Ru Meng looked even more carefully than I did,

from her gaze one can see,

her eyes show approval; she is proud to have such a father.

At the end, I actually discovered that Ru Meng's eyes were moist.

Because she saw a family photo of the three of us at the beach.

Ru Meng was over four years old then.

I held her, Zhou Wei leaned against my side, what a happy family.

At this moment I gently patted Ru Meng's shoulder,

Ru Meng's hand tightly gripped my hand.

Zhao Xiaohua then asked: "Ru Meng, what would you like to drink? Uncle will get it ready for you."

Ru Meng said: "I'll drink whatever my father drinks."

I smiled and said: "I drink tea, will you? You don't drink cola anymore."

"I also drink tea, I want to follow my father's example," Ru Meng said.

"Xiaohua, then pour some tea," I said.

Zhao Xiaohua then arranged for someone to pour tea for us.

I led Ru Meng back to the sofa where guests sit.

Zhao Xiaohua hurriedly pulled my hand,

"Brother, your seat is behind the desk. I've been keeping it for you."

Xiao Shitou also said: "Dad, sit there; my uncle has mentioned this more than once—that you've returned, and that seat is always reserved for you."

I laughed and said: "Alright, don't yield; it's the same wherever I sit. Xiaohua, I came to see you about something important."

"Brother, if you don't sit there, I'll be uneasy," Zhao Xiaohua said.

"Dad, just sit there. Only you can sit there," Xiao Shitou also advised from the side.

I waved my hand,

"Xiaohua, Xiao Shitou, stop yielding; we're family, bring some stools, let's sit together and talk."

So Zhao Xiaohua quickly brought two stools,

Xiao Shitou and Zhao Xiaohua sat beside me.

I said: "Alas, we haven't gathered like this in a long time. It's nice to sit together and chat. Xiaohua, I ask you, after going through so much, what have you realized?"

Upon hearing my question, Zhao Xiaohua's face instantly turned red,

"Brother, I was wrong, I really was wrong, please forgive me. I am not a thing. I now know the importance of family."

Outsiders will always be outsiders.

I was too arrogant in the past, too self-righteous.

I overthought things. Brother, Da Heng Group cannot function without you.

From now on, I'll listen to you on everything.

Compared to you, I am nothing.

After Zhao Xiaohua finished speaking, she raised her hand wanting to slap herself.

I quickly stopped her,

"Xiaohua, don't do that in front of the child; past matters are past,"

People must experience some things to understand.

You, back then, whatever I said, you wouldn't listen,

A lesson is more important than thousands of words.

This lesson is not only a lesson for you, but also a lesson for me.

I, in the past, have always lived among those glories, thinking I had achieved some accomplishments,

Those accomplishments are beyond comparison.

Actually, these things are all illusory.

As the saying goes, flies don't target seamless eggs.

First, we have problems, and then others exploit the loopholes.

If we have no problems, external factors cannot get in.

You think it's right, Xiao Hua?

Zhao Xiaohua nodded,

"Brother is right; back then Kong Shi found me, told me about the group's situation, and my mind became confused."

If I had always trusted you, always taken you as the center, this wouldn't have happened.

From now on, this will never happen again.

"I will listen to you in everything."

Zhao Xiaohua promised again.

I laughed,

took a sip of tea,

"Xiao Hua, blindly listening is also a mistake; nobody is without mistakes."

Don't keep self-criticizing.

Between us brothers, even a huge matter isn't a matter—who made us blood brothers?

We were nursed by the same mother.

We two brothers are to set an example for the next generation, letting them know the importance of familial affection.

One can lack wealth, lack friends, but cannot lack familial affection.

This is the most basic human emotion; if a person lacks even familial affection, they are not far from beasts.

Xiao Shitou, today, here, I want to talk with you a bit,

Although you are not my biological child, Ru Meng will always be your sister.

Sun Dajun will always be your brother,

We will always be a family,

Do you understand?

Xiao Shitou nodded,

"Dad, I know. Rest assured, Ru Meng will always be my sister, and my elder brother Dajun will always be my brother."

"That's right."

You guys, your growing environment is more complicated than ours back then.

In the future, you'll face more problems. Xiao Shitou, today also counts as educating you a bit.

I and Zhao Xiaohua are blood brothers,

But between us, in the past, due to our mutual contradictions, outsiders found a loophole and took our Da Heng Group.

After experiencing many things, your uncle also understood,

The importance of familial affection; sometimes familial affection surpasses money.

It is the foundation of your success in society.

"Xiao Shitou, I hope you can handle these relationships well. You are a smart child, I have high hopes for you."

Xiao Shitou hurriedly said: "Dad, I know. I want to find time to go to the prison to see Brother Dajun. After all, we are brothers."

I patted Xiao Shitou's shoulder,

"That's right, this is what good brothers are like; we should look ahead. Ru Meng is still young; she will grow up sooner or later."

She is a girl; without your support as brothers behind her, what will we do if outsiders bully her in the future?

Isn't that right, Ru Meng? Xiao Shitou is your real older brother,

Do you understand?

【98】 "Dad, I know. I have three older brothers: Shitouge, Sun Dajun, Zhengzheng; they all dote on me." Ru Meng said proudly.

"Dad, I understand now, I have three older brothers, Shitouge, Da Jun, Zhengzheng, and they all love me," Ru Meng said proudly.

"Right, they are all your brothers, they all dote on you. Actually you are the happiest. In today's society, who can have three older brothers?"

Most are only children.

"Just rest assured, from now on when you go out, no one will dare provoke you." I laughed.

"Dad, I just mention your name; even in Zaocheng, no one dares provoke me,"

"I am the eldest miss." Ru Meng also laughed.

"Eldest miss. Okay, then Xiao Shitou will take our eldest miss to tour the company; I and your uncle have important matters to discuss." I arranged.
