TGDS Chapter 27.1

Good Dad System [Arc 2] Chapter 27.1: Wealth Is Only Three Generations (22)

 

“Dad, if you are sleepy, go to sleep for a while.” Pei Shaoyang stood behind his father. He looked at the documents on the table. The documents were all printed on special paper printed by the Pei Group’s printing factory. Name and logo, the content of the file is quite complicated, some are data and some are descriptions.

 

“I’m not sleepy.” Pei Naochun scratched his hair in embarrassment. He didn’t look in the mirror and didn’t know how his hair was messed up. “Shaoyang, why aren’t you sleeping yet?”

 

“I have no plans for tomorrow morning. Why are you still up? You need to rest when you are sleepy. Do you have to break down your body like grandpa to be happy?” Pei Shaoyang is young, but his face is very serious. The important person also unconsciously put away his smile.

 

Pei Naochun sighed helplessly. He looked at the documents in front of him and confessed to his son, “I’m not sleepy, I just don’t understand these documents.” He casually fiddled with the hair that fell on his forehead, trying to lift it up. “These, these…” He pointed in a circle and gave a wry smile, “I don’t understand.”

 

“Let’s face it, your dad, I is useless and have no ability, but it’s not good to keep dragging my feet like this.” He was extremely embarrassed and made small movements with his legs under the table. “I want to understand the document and don’t just fool around, it’s better not to bother your grandpa, after all, he needs a good rest.”

 

Pei Shaoyang looked at Pei Naochun’s depressed look and fell silent. His father was still talking back to his grandfather at night, but he was reading some documents behind his back. He then thought about his father who was cruel to himself because he didn’t sleep during the meeting. He didn’t know how to describe his mood.

 

“…You, actually grandpa also knows that you don’t understand.”

 

“But your grandpa also hopes that I will get better.” Pei Naochun leaned on the chair, put his hands behind his back, looked up at his son, and smiled, “Your grandpa has been counting on me for so many years, but I just can’t do it. ”

 

His voice sounded brisk, but there was a hint of disappointment: “Some people are born to be diligent, and some are born to be lazy.” He pointed at himself, “Don’t they say that a son inherits his father’s legacy? I am a special case, and your grandpa looks nothing like me.”

 

“Even when I look at the documents, my eyes are completely blank.” Pei Naochun lowered his head, “How do I not know what your grandfather is thinking? It’s like he hopes that I can make some achievements and live a good life to show him, I don’t want him to always feel that his son is useless, but many things cannot be achieved by hard work.”

 

In the quiet room, his voice was very soft, but it hit the listener’s heart heavily: “It’s better not to have expectations from the beginning.”

 

Pei Shaoyang was silent. He looked at his father. He was in the same position as before, but he felt that his father’s back was a little lonely at this moment.

 

Does he also want to be understood?

 

Pei Shaoyang held his father’s hand and squatted beside the chair. He met his father’s eyes and spoke seriously: “Dad, you are not useless.” He nodded, trying to increase his persuasiveness. , “Dad, you want…” Pei Shaoyang suddenly paused. The words he usually used to comfort people were of no use here.

 

Do you want to try harder? But the sleepiness in Dad’s eyes proved that his efforts were ineffective.

 

Do you want to say that I believe you? But is this belief meant to comfort oneself, or to give the other party a little strength?

 

“Silly son.” Pei Naochun scratched the bridge of his son’s nose, “You are still young, you don’t understand. Most people in this world know that they will do their best for their own life.”

 

“But I am different from them. I have lived a happy life since I was a child, I can’t bear hardships, and I don’t have the ability.” Pei Naochun laughed at himself, “But fortunately, you are not like me, but like your grandfather, so he will be happy too.”

 

Pei Shaoyang just held his father’s hand tightly, without saying a word, his eyes were deep, as if he wanted to see him completely in his heart.

 

“Don’t imitate me.”

 

Pei Shaoyang: “…”

 

“Your grandpa will say it again when the time comes, don’t learn from the bad ones but the good ones.”

 

“Grandpa, he…” He was conflicted. Is it wrong for a grandfather to hope that his children can make progress and have their own careers? It seemed to be right, but seeing his father working so hard and not being able to change, he suddenly rebelled and began to question this behavior.

 

Pei Naochun didn’t let his son say anymore: “Your grandfather is right. He hopes that his son will become a dragon and his daughter will become a phoenix. Isn’t that the case? Don’t I count on you to carry the Pei Group for me?”

 

“After all, I am the worst. I am unwilling to take on the responsibilities of the family, and I hope that my son will be reliable.”

 

“Dad, I will work hard.” After squatting for a long time, his legs were a little stiff, so Pei Shaoyang changed to a supporting leg.

 

“Um?”

 

He raised his head, the light sprinkled on his face, and his expression was clearly illuminated: “Dad, please work harder now, and you can rest more in the future.”

 

Pei Naochun seemed to be suddenly touched and looked at his son: “I’m sorry.”

 

“Sorry for what?”

 

“I haven’t taken on the responsibility of being a father for so many years.” Pei Naochun smiled bitterly. He was really sorry for this son. How could there be a father who gave birth to a child and didn’t care about it. He just regarded his son as a tool to meet his father’s demands. .

 

“…” Pei Shaoyang didn’t answer, he used to blame this matter in his heart.

 

“I love escaping too much.” Pei Naochun sighed, “I always feel that if I don’t come back here, I can pretend that I don’t take it seriously and deceive myself. After a long time, even I thought that as long as I lived by myself, I’ll just be happy.” Does the original body have no feelings for his son and father at all? In fact not, otherwise he might have had an illegitimate child with his mistress outside along with his gangster friends.

 

The original person just doesn’t want to take on this responsibility, and he thinks he can’t take on this responsibility. His shoulders are too soft and he can’t put things down. As long as he runs far away and turns a blind eye, he can lie to himself – look, the company can run well without me, father, he can thrive without me, and my son can grow up healthily without me. He just needs to live a good life, he is incompetent and cowardly.
