Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 32.2: The Prodigal Son (63)
“Can you agree to the four requests I made to you earlier?” Shao Yu asked.
Shao Dabao was originally a very stubborn person about passing on the family line. After Shao Yu’s previous persuasion, his attitude was not as firm as before.
Now Shao Yu mentioned the old words again. After a long silence, Shao Dabao finally nodded slightly and said, “Father, I can accept everything you said.”
“Do you really accept it?” Shao Yu asked again.
Shao Dabao thought for a while and said: “There are not so many things in this world that we take for granted. Her contribution is no less than mine. She deserves it.”
When Dr. Lu heard what he said, the way he looked at Shao Dabao didn’t look like he was staring at an enemy as before.
“I didn’t expect you to have such an understanding.” Shao Yu couldn’t help but sigh. The Shao Dabao in front of him seemed really different from before.
Shao Dabao said to Dr. Lu again: “I didn’t know who was interested in me before, but I didn’t expect it to be Yun’er.”
When Dr. Lu heard this, he immediately glared and said, “What? You are still picky?”
Shao Dabao shook his head hurriedly and said, “Yun’er is a cloud in the sky, and it is my luck for three lifetimes to win her favor.”
Lu Yuner is a good-looking girl, a young girl in the nearby street.
The goddess in people’s hearts, it is precisely because the other party’s conditions are so good that Shao Dabao never dared to think about her.
At this time, when he thought that such a goddess was willing to favor him who was penniless, Shao Dabao felt proud, but more importantly, he was afraid that if he did not do well, he would let the other person down.
Dr. Lu heard this, and his heart sighed a little, and then said: “My family Yun’er has been following the rules since she was a child, but I don’t know what’s going on with your kid.”
Shao Dabao immediately said: “Uncle Lu, I am from Qingzhou. I came here unexpectedly. I studied for a few years and now I rely on my father to do business as a salesman. You know all this.”
After hearing this, Dr. Lu’s eyes narrowed and he asked: “Okay, why don’t you study again?”
When Shao Dabao heard this question, his heart skipped a beat. He was confused and didn’t know how to answer, so he turned his eyes to Shao Yu for help, as if he wanted Shao Yu to help him come up with an idea.
But Shao Yu didn’t seem to see it at all. He only lowered his head to study the teacup in front of him, as if there was something good in it.
Doctor Lu already knew about his past. Seeing him not answering at this time, he couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed, so he said, “If you can’t say it, then don’t say it.”
Shao Dabao knew that his past was very bad, he wanted to lie, but he suddenly remembered Shao Yu’s inadvertent teaching: “Deception can bring temporary peace, but truth can be exchanged for long-term stability.”
What Shao Dabao wants in his heart is long-term stability, but he is afraid that if he tells the truth about the past, Doctor Lu will not marry his daughter to him.
“I don’t necessarily want to inquire about anything. Marrying a daughter is a big deal, so it’s inevitable to ask a few more questions. As long as your wealth is clean, I will naturally be willing to marry my daughter to you.” Dr. Lu said this, which seemed to add fuel to the fire, as if he was deliberately tempting Shao Dabao to lie.
At this time, Lu Yun’er, who was hiding in the back room, couldn’t help but stamp her feet when she heard this. She felt that her father was deliberately setting a trap for Shao Dabao so that he would jump into the pit. Lu Yun’er suddenly became extremely anxious. .
After Shao Dabao heard this, his hesitant expression was swept away, and he said, “My past… is not innocent.”
Dr. Lu was stunned when he heard this. He didn’t expect Shao Dabao to be so honest and tell the truth about his past.
Doctor Lu recalled what Shao Yu said earlier: “If a person is willing to risk losing the temptation and face his past before facing a huge temptation, then this person can still be saved.”
Shao Dabao’s sincere performance now shows that he is still a salvageable person.
Doctor Lu turned to look at the closed door in the back room. He could vaguely see the slender figure behind the door. He also understood that his daughter was about to get married.
“I was unbearable in the past, but now I have realized the absurdity of that time. If Uncle Lu doesn’t trust me and refuses to marry Yun’er to me because of these things, I won’t have any complaints. Yun’er is a good girl. She deserves someone better than me.”
After Shao Dabao said this, for some reason, he felt relieved, as if he had accomplished a great thing.
He knew that if he was willing to lie, then the marriage would probably be a sure thing, but when he thought that the other party treated him so well and was willing to get married without even asking for a betrothal gift, he was unwilling to live up to his sincerity.
Shao Dabao didn’t cherish other people’s kindness in the past, but after experiencing so many things, he understands that no one’s kindness is deserved.
No woman has ever expressed love to him, so he takes Lu Yun’er’s feelings very seriously.
He looked at Dr. Lu at this time, like a person waiting for a sentence, waiting for Dr. Lu to give him the final sentence.
Doctor Lu was silent for a long time, and then said: “If you dare to betray my daughter, I will drag you to death even if I risk my life.”
Shao Dabao breathed a long of relief when he heard the words, looked at Shao Yu sighed beside him, and said softly, “Father, I’m going to marry a wife.”
