Chapter 255: 251. Siyan Resolves Her Emotional Knot (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

Zhang Ran looked at everyone's gazes and said with a smile, "You could say that, but the main reason Tian Yaohui went in wasn't me, but rather your Aunt Huo. You all know about what happened to Zhiyuan before; the person operating behind the scenes was Tian Yaohui."

Hearing Zhang Ran's explanation, everyone was a bit dazed. They didn't know about the other circumstances Zhang Ran mentioned; they only heard that this matter was related to Zhang Ran.

Especially Siyan; her mood at this moment was even more complex. Perhaps Tian Yaohui really did go in because of Huo Zhiyuan's matter, but the one who truly put in the effort was definitely Zhang Ran.

Because during this period, Huo Zhiyuan had not left Shanghai at all, and perhaps she hadn't even truly participated in it.

In other words, this matter was actually done by Zhang Ran. For such a long time, Zhang Ran hadn't seemed to arrange everything for her as he did for Sicheng, but Siyan could fully feel that Zhang Ran's concern and care for her were not a bit less than what he gave her older brother, and perhaps even more.

It was just that, perhaps because she had a failed marriage, Zhang Ran was afraid that rashly interfering in her life would make her heart, which was already sensitive because of that event, feel uncomfortable, so he let everything follow her wishes.

Qian Li, on the other hand, did not know her best friend's thoughts; at this moment, besides shock, her heart was filled with curiosity.

"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang, can you tell me about the situation this time? By the way, I heard that Yaotian Pharmaceutical has already been acquired by a company called Dasheng; this wouldn't be yours too, would it?" Qian Li thought that besides Zhang Ran, there were others involved.

To others, it seemed the same; after all, for such a big matter, they wouldn't believe it if they were told it was done by Zhang Ran alone.

Moreover, there was quite a lot of discussion on the internet, and most people guessed it was some financial group or some organization operating together.

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "You could say that."

At this, everyone was speechless again, while Sicheng and Liu Lu stared blankly at Zhang Ran.

Was their family about to have another industry added?

And it was an industry with a market value of one hundred billion?

Although they didn't know how many shares their father (father-in-law) held in it, it shouldn't be very little, right?

Sicheng now completely didn't know what to say. He had originally thought that his father's sudden return might increase their family's burden, and at that time, he had already prepared himself mentally.

But he hadn't expected the reversal to come so quickly. Their family turned out to be a relocation household, and his father directly paid to buy them a house worth ten million, even including the renovation.

Actually, at that time, Sicheng was already very satisfied; after all, he wasn't a person with great ambition.

But this was only just the beginning. The company he had worked at for many years was about to go bankrupt due to poor management, and he was on the verge of losing his job.

His father didn't say a word, directly acquired the company, and then he became the boss in a daze.

It was hard enough to slowly learn how to manage a company, how to operate a company, and he even achieved some results.

When Sicheng felt satisfied again, thinking that what he had done should meet his father's expectations.

But now his father actually told him again that their family had just acquired Yaotian Pharmaceutical?

Sicheng had originally thought he understood his father relatively well, but now it seemed he had only understood the tip of the iceberg.

Conversely, Liu Lu did not show any look of surprise and actually accepted this fact very quickly.

Siyan also accepted it quickly, because ever since Huo Zhiyuan's matter, she no longer thought her father was just a relocation household. Although it was a bit different from the underworld boss she had guessed at the beginning, she could accept it.

Siyan cared more about Zhang Ran's silent concern and care.

Although she didn't know about the matters concerning Tian Ya and Wan Haifang, she knew that for Sun Gaixin to become what he was yesterday, Zhang Ran must have done something.

Otherwise, given Tian Ya's obsession with Sun Gaixin, even if such a thing had happened, she wouldn't have truly broken up with Sun Gaixin.

From Sun Gaixin's words yesterday, Siyan knew the result of the matter; if Tian Ya hadn't done that, Sun Gaixin wouldn't be in this state.

"Dad, thank you," Siyan suddenly said.

This was the first time Siyan had called Zhang Ran 'Dad', although in their hearts, the two siblings had actually long since accepted Zhang Ran as their father.

But after all, Zhang Ran had been absent from their lives for more than twenty years. From birth, to school, to graduation, marriage, and having children—these major life events, Zhang Ran hadn't caught a single one.

Although Zhang Ran had irresistible reasons, Siyan and the others still had some emotional knots; even if these knots were slowly fading, it didn't mean they were gone.

Unlike Liu Lu, Liu Lu had no relationship with Zhang Ran before; she only became involved with Zhang Ran after marrying Sicheng.

That is to say, Zhang Ran had no responsibility toward Liu Lu herself.

So, after seeing some of the things Zhang Ran had done for her, she very easily eliminated the bit of awkwardness deep in her heart, and calling him 'Dad' didn't have the slightest psychological burden.

Having such a father-in-law, Liu Lu was already very satisfied; after all, Zhang Ran didn't owe her anything at all before.

This was different from Sicheng and Siyan.

And at this moment, Zhang Ran hadn't told Siyan what he had done, and he had never asked the two to call him 'Dad', but everything he did, Siyan saw in her eyes.

These were not things that could be eliminated just by Zhang Ran giving some money.

If Zhang Ran had used money to force the two to call him Dad, it wouldn't have been impossible, but would it have been sincere?

So Zhang Ran had never been in a hurry. Although deep in his heart he longed for his two children to call him 'Dad', he knew that many things that looked fine on the surface were not necessarily fine.

Hearing this 'Dad' from Siyan, Zhang Ran's face was dazed at first, then immediately filled with joy.

"It's okay, it's okay, these are all things Dad should do. Don't worry, with Dad here from now on, no one can bully you." Zhang Ran was so excited he was almost incoherent.

Sicheng saw this scene, his mouth opened, but in the end, he still didn't call out.

Perhaps his experience was a bit different from Siyan's; because of his family situation, he dropped out of school early to work and support his family.

So his psychological 'knots' regarding Zhang Ran might be deeper. Even if such knots could no longer be seen on the surface, they were there, and he couldn't hide his heart from himself.

Or perhaps there was also some embarrassment as a man; in any case, at this moment, Sicheng did not call out.

However, his heart also began to loosen, and perhaps it wouldn't take much longer.
