CEO’s Substitute Fairy Wife - C253
“Dad, we’re here.” Qin Chen called out to Qin Tiannan, indicating for him to pay attention to the stairs.
“Your dad isn’t that old yet …” Qin Tiannan chuckled. At this moment, he was no different from the old man who usually raised flowers and played with dogs. Who would have thought that this ordinary old man was actually the chairman of the largest company in M Country?
What entered Qin Tiannan’s eyes was a western restaurant. The simple decorations made his eyes shine.
Qin Chen supported Qin Tiannan up the stairs and entered.
“Little Chen, how did you find such a good restaurant …” Qin Tiannan said with some emotion, even though he had already been to this restaurant a few times.
The air was silent for a few seconds, but Qin Tiannan did not hear a response from Qin Chen.
“Little Chen?” Qin Tiannan turned his head with some doubt. When he met those familiar eyes, he felt like he had been electrocuted and was unable to move.
Standing in front of him was none other than Qin Guan.
Qin Guan silently looked at Qin Tiannan, who he had not seen for decades, as traces of bitterness emerged in his heart.
After so many years, Qin Tiannan seemed to have aged a lot. Many wrinkles appeared on his once smooth face, and his eyes turned cloudy.
The stern man in his memory seemed to have disappeared a long time ago.
“He’s coming.” Qin Guan was the first to speak, looking at Qin Tiannan with a calm expression. He knew that this day would come sooner or later.
“Past …” Qin Tiannan’s lips trembled as his expression became somewhat absent-minded.
He had never thought that the Qin family would actually come to find him, an incompetent father.
“You’ve grown up …” Qin Tiannan stretched out his finger as if he wanted to touch Qin Guan’s face, but he withdrew it.
He looked at Qin Guan with a kind of infatuation. His eyes were almost exactly the same as Su Su’s when she was young, while the rest of his eyes seemed to copy and paste into his eyes.
“Come and sit.” Qin Guan said indifferently and took the first seat.
Qin Tiannan immediately followed. Since Qin Guan was willing to see him, it was a good start.
“Why are you helping us?” Although Qin Tiannan was now old, he would not forget how he had treated him and his mother back then.
“So you already knew about it …” “Qin Tiannan looked at Qin Guan as if he did not see enough no matter what.” I didn’t expect you to meet me. I thought you’d never forgive me. ”
“I haven’t forgiven you yet.” Qin Guan indifferently interrupted Qin Tiannan, “You still haven’t answered my question. Why are you helping us?”
“I want to make it up to you.” Qin Tiannan smiled bitterly. He might not believe it even if he said it.
“Is that so?” Indeed, Qin Guan did not believe Qin Tiannan’s words. He kept having the feeling that Qin Tiannan was hiding something. Qin Luo is going to inherit your company, right? ”
Qin Guan didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly. He had come to find out the truth.
“How do you know?” Qin Tiannan subconsciously asked. Only the Qin family knew about this.
However, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and smiled awkwardly, “No, that’s not it.”
“Your eyelids are jumping.” Qin Guan stared at Qin Tiannan. So it was true that Qin Luo had taken over the company.
Qin Tiannan had a habit: whenever he lied, his right eyelid would twitch uncontrollably.
“You remember.” Qin Tiannan was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that he still remembered it so clearly over the years. For a moment, he felt somewhat rueful.
That good-for-nothing son of his probably didn’t even know when his birthday was going to be …
“Do you have the heart to see the company destroyed by him?” Qin Guan’s voice was somewhat cold and detached. He had a misconception about Qin Tiannan and always thought that Qin Tiannan was giving the best things to Qin Luo.
“In the future, you won’t understand.” Qin Tiannan slightly sighed, “I don’t have the energy to care about so many things. It might be a good thing for him to take over the company.”
“Good news?” Qin Guan had a strange expression on his face. “Don’t forget, I used to be a member of the Qin family. How could I not know the way the company operated?”
Qin Tiannan had forgotten that when he was very young, he had imbued Qin Guan with the thought of “mutual prosperity” in his mind. Back then, when Qin Guan was still young, he had firmly remembered it in his heart.
“You still remember …” Qin Tiannan did not expect that the words he had unintentionally said to Qin Wentian would be remembered by him for decades.
“Now you can tell me the truth.” Qin Guan really didn’t want to beat around the bush with Qin Tiannan. He only wanted to know the truth.
When Qin Tiannan saw that he could no longer hide it anymore, he could only open his mouth: “The current Tiannan Group is just an empty shell.”
“I’m just the chairman of the board who’s been taken over.” Although Qin Tiannan did not want to admit it, the truth was as such.
He didn’t even know when the shareholders had been bought off. He had foolishly worked for Nangong Wan for dozens of years …
Qin Guan looked at Qin Tiannan’s downcast face and his heart was filled with bitterness. Even he himself did not know why.
“It seems that you’re not doing very well either.” Qin Guan tried his best to restrain the calmness in his tone, not letting his emotions fluctuate too much.
“Perhaps this is retribution.” Qin Tiannan smiled bitterly, “If I had been a bit more resolute back then, I might have been able to protect you and your mother. It was my fault …”
“Enough.” Qin Guan interrupted Qin Tiannan’s words with a cold voice. He felt more and more uncomfortable in his heart.
He clearly should have hated this man in front of him. Why did he feel sympathy for him …
“I brought all of this upon myself. If you resent me, I’ll admit it. ” Qin Tiannan suddenly seemed to have aged a lot. Facing Qin Guan, he no longer needed to disguise himself.
For so many years, he had tightly wrapped himself up, not wanting himself to fall down. He didn’t expect to surrender so quickly after seeing Qin Guan.
“It won’t be long before Qin Luo inherits the company. At that time, I’ll be able to live through the year.” Qin Tiannan laughed, but his smile was uglier than crying. After a while, this is all I can do for you. I know you’ve developed your career in M, and I hope you can beat him. ”
“Actually, I really do love your mother.” Qin Tiannan noticed that Qin Guan did not speak and suddenly said this. His eyes became moist.
All these years, the ones supporting him were the South Sky Group and Qin Guan. Now that the company was in someone else’s hands and Qin Guan had a family of his own, he had to be at ease.
Qin Guan still did not speak. He looked at Qin Tiannan with a complicated gaze. He truly did not understand why he would marry Nangong Wan if he truly loved his mother.
“When this is all over, I’ll go accompany her.” Qin Tiannan muttered to himself, completely disregarding the fact that Qin Guan was right in front of him.
“What did you say?” Qin Guan was shocked.
