Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 334 - 308: Supervisor’s Care

While Yu Minglang was handling the issue, Qian had already sat in his uncle’s office, facing a challenge from him.

It was said to be a chat with Qian, but when she came in, he stood by the window reading a file, only saying to Qian to look around at her leisure while he busied himself, then ignoring her.

Qian looked at him for a few extra seconds, seemingly recalling something.

"Is there something on my face?" the uncle asked.

"You look somewhat like an old acquaintance of mine." Why does this person look so familiar? Seems to leave some impression.

Qian wandered around the room and stopped in front of a huge cabinet. It displayed a group photo. To her surprise, this major shareholder uncle once had glorious days.

Despite being a successful person now, he still placed the group photo where it was easily seen, showing fondness for those days, indicating that he was an upright person... just like the real father of Yu Minglang.

The uncle raised his head from the documents and glanced at Qian.

"Interested?"

"Yes, you seem quite mysterious."

In her previous life, she didn’t have the opportunity to meet these elders of his, and Yu Minglang never mentioned them, so being able to visit his workplace and see them in person felt quite different.

"How do you view Minglang?" the uncle asked.

Qian understood that they didn’t just invite her due to her involvement in the rescue today, this was a disguised assessment.

Although Yu Minglang was a man who stood firm in his opinions, if his elders had a negative impression of her, it might cause trouble later.

Qian disliked others meddling in her feelings, so dealing with this elder became crucial.

"I have a good impression of him, his parents have already acknowledged this."

Qian spoke candidly. She had already decided on how to approach this mysterious uncle.

She realized the man was straightforward, so she directly informed him that Xiaoqiang’s parents had agreed to her relationship with Xiaoqiang, and the shareholder uncle didn’t have any right to interfere with their relationship.

The uncle was amused by her frankness, "We’re having a regular conversation now, feel free to speak without being this tense."

"To me, he’s just an ordinary man. I chose him regardless of his profession. If his work keeps him busy, I’ll just wait more for him. Busy or not, he always looks pleasing to me."

"It seems like you know what I want to say."

"Yes, I am a professional psychologist. I know what to say to whom. If you want to hear pleasing words, I can say them because I understand your intention. So let’s be open and avoid polite formulas."

The uncle couldn’t pretend with the documents any longer. This girl doesn’t play by the rules.

"Then tell me, what is my intention?"

Initially, he wanted to see what kind of woman his proud younger generation fancied, but seeing Qian’s calm demeanor made him feel a bit seen through.

"I know you want to see whether I support Yu Minglang’s work, and you want to evaluate whether my choice is based on money and status. But sorry, uncle, I can’t speak those pretty diplomatic words. My sincere words are definitely not what you want to hear. I just want to tell you a fact, Yu Minglang can’t do without me, and I am not someone who can speak insincere words, so it’s best to leave it at that. Speaking too much makes you uneasy, and I’m uncomfortable."

Life is like rough meals and dreadful dishes, curses in the heart and chewing in the mouth, isn’t this what Yu Minglang’s work is?

"You truly aren’t afraid of offending people... So what if I insist on hearing the truth?" The uncle, who has seen countless people, was surprised for the first time by a young person being so blunt and unreserved that he didn’t know how to respond.

Normally, wouldn’t one express determination, support the work, convey thoughts and beliefs, promise the stability of the homeland?

Qian, however, directly stated that her sincere words weren’t what the uncle wanted to hear, even saw through his intentions, and straightforwardly expressed her thoughts!

"I am just being honest. It’s his choice; I respect him just as he respects my work. My support for him has nothing to do with understanding, simply because he earns my respect. So stop saying things like waiting for a busy man is a sacrifice or dedication. I don’t see it that way. Doing things for someone I like is my willingness, and don’t tell me he’s out of reach just because he’s wealthy. As I said, what he chooses now is just a profession, only wealth is not enough for an ideal lifetime together."

"Then what do you think is needed for a perfect lifetime together for you both?"

"Yu Minglang has his beliefs and so do I. He wants to conquer and achieve a career. My belief comes from the support I give to the person I like, nothing more."

These words were concise, yet expressed her intention.

"I now believe in how you managed to break through a villain’s psychological defenses, here, take a look at this."

The uncle pulled out another photo from the drawer.

Qian had seen this photo in her past life in Yu Minglang’s desk. He treasured it dearly, as it comprised his comrades who faced life and death together.

"You’ve seen this photo, haven’t you?"

"Yes, I remember. This man embraced by Yu Minglang had the nickname Lone Wolf, right?" Qian remembered asking Xiaoqiang about the man he embraced, and he said Lone Wolf.

Afterward, he shut himself in his room and stayed in there all night.

"He sacrificed."

Respect for the deceased, Qian solemnly admired.

"This company was founded by me, Minglang’s father, and a few others together. Initially, we never anticipated its success. I had retired and was a leisurely shareholder at home, but after the child’s sacrifice, I returned to the company."

The uncle pointed to the young man embraced by Yu Minglang, the young person looked young with a bright smile.

Qian finally remembered why this uncle seemed so familiar; she indeed had seen him once in her past life, but she had seen the people in this photo repeatedly!

It turned out this uncle closely resembled the young man in the photo, and this must be...a father and son?

The doubt in her heart was finally resolved. Qian suddenly understood why the uncle would have a separate chat with her, she now understood all the uncle’s actions when he asked her questions, even appreciating his true feelings toward Yu Minglang.

He must have regarded Yu Minglang as his own child.

Because his own child was gone, he returned to work, using it to numb the sorrow.
