Chapter 607: Father and Son Dialogue
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
In terms of technology, it is obvious that Feng Wanjiang knows more than me. So, he should be put in charge of this place. On the business side, I can use my own people. The person recommended by Hou Zhenhan is good and can be considered.
As for my father, he just needs to take charge of the overall situation!
Thinking of this, Yang Ming had decided on his approach. Well, since my father likes it, why not let him do it?
“Dad, I want to talk to you.” Yang Ming opened the door and spoke to his father sitting on the sofa.
” Oh ?” Yang Dahai was stunned as he looked at Yang Ming. “Big Ming, are you saying that you have something to say to me?”
“Yes, Dad. Come to my room.” Yang Ming said.
“What’s the matter? Making it so mysterious, why can’t you say it in the living room?” Yang Dahai said this, but he stood up and walked to Yang Ming’s room.
Yang Ming this time, decided to confess some of his stories to his father. It was already the time. The Yang Ming in front of his parents’ eyes right now was different from the past.
Moreover, Yang Ming was mainly trying to tell his father about Lan Ling’s matters. In any case, Yang Dahai was his father. Lan Ling couldn’t always be kept hidden as one of his own women, could she? Although Lan Ling didn’t ask for anything, she would be very happy if she could be a guest at home like a normal daughter-in-law.
Which girl doesn’t want to be recognized by her boyfriend’s family?
Therefore, Yang Ming decided to talk about Lan Ling’s story first.
“Dad, I have another girlfriend besides Chen Mengyan.” Yang Ming said slowly.
“Oh… ah ? What?” Yang Dahai was shocked at once and almost didn’t jump out of the chair, “Big Ming, are you talking nonsense?”
Yang Dahai thought that Yang Ming still wanted to comfort him with some of the happenings about the bus factory, but he didn’t expect Yang Ming to suddenly come up with such a sentence.
“No… Dad, you didn’t hear it wrong. I have another girlfriend. She is Lan Ling.” Yang Ming said word by word.
“Big Ming… you…” Yang Dahai frowned immediately. “What are you doing? Chen Mengyan is so good to you, and yet you actually did something like this? You have wronged Chen Mengyan!”
“Dad, listen to me first!” Yang Ming smiled bitterly. “Let’s not talk about the topic of whether I wronged Chen Mengyan because no one is sorry to anyone for these kinds of happenings. Before my relations.h.i.+p with Chen Mengyan was settled, I was with Lan Ling… How do I put it? There is something between the two of us… Dad, can you understand that?”
“Brat, are you speaking the truth?” Yang Dahai was furious. “Then, you have a girlfriend and yet you are still in a relations.h.i.+p with Chen Mengyan. Aren’t you deceiving people’s feelings? If we put it in an escalated manner, you are committing bigamy [1]. It is a crime. Don’t you think Chen Mengyan’s dad would put you in jail?”
“Dad… In fact, the situation here is very complicated.” Yang Ming explained, “Moreover, Chen Mengyan also knows about the existence of Lan Ling and has accepted her.”
” Ah ?” Yang Dahai suddenly felt that his brain had become short-circuited. After a long while, he said in amazement, “Are you saying that Chen Mengyan knows about it as well? She even accepted Lan Ling? What the h.e.l.l is going on?”
“Dad, do you believe that there is voodoo in our world?” Yang Ming asked abruptly.
” Oh ? Are you talking about the voodoo of the Miaojiang in Yunnan?” asked Yang Dahai.
“Yes, do you know about it?” Yang Ming was a little surprised. My father seemed to know a lot!
“Probably know a little…” Yang Dahai said, “When I was in university, I had a cla.s.smate. He fell in love with a Miaojiang woman. It was said that the woman put a special voodoo on him so that he wouldn’t be unfaithful. If he became unfaithful, he would have retribution. During that time, we didn’t believe it and we only treated it as a joke. Later, the daughter of the head of the department took a fancy to him when we graduated. She gave him a condition that in order to be able to stay in university he had to break up with the Miao girl.
“As a result, he became vain and broke up with the girl. He married the daughter of the department head. He also stayed at the company-owned university as per his wish under the rationale of him being the employees’ child.
“However, one year later, there was inexplicable blood gus.h.i.+ng out from his seven orifices which led to his death. The hospital couldn’t identify the cause of his death. The students all said that because he was unfaithful, it caused the voodoo to activate… Ai , he just reaped what he sowed…”
Yang Ming felt a wave of chill creep into him. Fortunately, he was wise to bring Lan Ling back. If I just patted my b.u.t.t and walked off after I was done with the business, most probably I would have already been done for.
“Dad… Lan Ling, I met her in Yunnan…” Yang Ming sighed.
“Yunnan…” Yang Dahai wasn’t stupid. He looked at Yang Ming and then asked anxiously, “You mean, she is a Miao?”
“Yes, and your son, unfortunately, has gotten a voodoo as well…” Yang Ming smiled bitterly, “Probably it is the same one as your cla.s.smate…”
” Ah ?” Yang Dahai was shocked all of a sudden. He looked at Yang Ming at a complete loss! He had experienced such weird happenings in person, and he couldn’t choose not to believe it! Moreover, this thing seemed unusual. It can’t be checked in the hospital!
His own cla.s.smate was afraid of the voodoo going wrong as well at the time, so he went to the hospital for a thorough inspection, comprising of a blood test and a urine test. In the end, nothing was found. He didn’t take it seriously, thinking that the girl was lying to threaten him in order to keep his heart, but unfortunately, he had suffered his fate.
Looking at his father’s horror, Yang Ming said quickly, “Dad, you don’t have to worry. I’m really sincere to Lan Ling, and I won’t let her down…”
“But, did she know about the things between you and Chen Mengyan?” Yang Dahai was still very worried about his son’s life. After all, this thing wasn’t a joke!
“She knew, and she also acquiesced to it.” Yang Ming nodded and said, “Chen Mengyan also knows the story about my voodoo so she also accepted Lan Ling… This is the case now.”
“Big Ming… you wait. How can I be so confused…? You mean that Lan Ling knows about Chen Mengyan and Chen Mengyan also knows about Lan Ling… My G.o.d, what are you doing?” Yang Dahai’s thought went messy.
“Dad… The situation was about what you have said…” Yang Ming nodded. “It’s just for you to know. I have other important matters to tell you.”
” Oh ? You still have other matters to talk about?” Yang Dahai had a lot of questions in mind, but when he heard Yang Ming say this, he could only stop asking questions for now.
“This is the case. Lan Ling and I went jade gambling in Yunnan…” Yang Ming said, “Do you know what jade gambling is?”
” En , I saw it on TV. Yes, didn’t you tell me, too?” Yang Dahai nodded.
“Yes, Lan Ling has another ability. She had a particularly strong sixth sense, so all the stones that Lan Ling and I had selected had good quality jade within them!” Yang Ming said, “In the past, I told you that the money to open the company was given to me by G.o.dfather, but it isn’t the case…”
“What do you mean? You mean the money belonged to you?” Yang Dahai was shocked already. So, his psychological endurance at this moment was also much stronger.
This was why Yang Ming was gradually explaining his story.
“It can be said that my jade was sold for a good price after my G.o.dfather’s craftsmans.h.i.+p. So, it was also money that the G.o.dfather gave me.” Yang Ming said.
“It turned out to be like this! Why didn’t you say that before?” Yang Dahai suddenly realized.
“Beforehand, wasn’t there a story about Lan Ling? Also, you and mom seemed to have some doubts about my ability during that time. Right now, you have changed your perception of me. Only then, do I dare to say it.” Yang Ming said innocently.
“You brat!” Yang Dahai shook his head and said, “But what are you going to do in the future? Do you plan to continue like this? Between Chen Mengyan and Lan Ling, don’t you need to make a choice?”
Yang Dashan was still concerned about Yang Ming’s life security.
“Dad, let’s talk about this in the future. Why don’t you ask me how much money my jade was sold for?” Yang Ming said with a wave of his hand.
“How much? Isn’t that the money you used to start the company? Is it not five million?” Yang Dahai asked.
“Not five million… Dad, in fact, five million is just a small part…” Yang Ming switched on his laptop and logged in to the online banking website. Then, he opened up his bank deposit record as he spoke. “Dad, this money is all mine…”
“What? One zero, two zeros, three zeros… thirty-eight million?” Yang Dahai looked at the screen with a squint, but he still omitted one digit. He had regarded 380 million as 38 million…
“Is it real? Big Ming, you have more than thirty million!” Yang Dahai stood up in shock and looked at Yang Ming in a daze…
