Good Dad System (Arc 5) Chapter 47.2: Her Gambler Dad (26)
Pei Tao made a lot of small movements with her hands: “How did you get together in the first place?” She was very curious about such a question and couldn’t help but cast an expectant look.
“What can I do? It was a blind date.” Wu Liping was about to get up and pack her things, but she sat down again and looked at her husband. She understood everything. “Someone introduced me to your dad. The conditions were right and your dad was a nice guy, so we got together.”
Pei Naochun nodded, indicating his agreement: “In our time, people paid more attention to matching each other up. It was impossible for us to find the right person on our own. Our families always helped to arrange the match.”
“Is that so…” Pei Tao seemed a little disappointed, but quickly cheered up, “Then when did you feel that this person was… the one you could spend your whole life with?” She was a little confused about the way she expressed her inner thoughts, “That’s not what I meant, what I meant was…” What she wanted to ask was when her parents realized that she liked each other, but she felt like she couldn’t get the answer to her curiosity.
Pei Naochun understood what his daughter meant: “I know what you mean. Your mother is an exceptionally good woman. After we got married, we have always been in tune with each other and have been compatible and getting along well until now.” He looked at his wife with a tender expression.
Wu Liping was a little embarrassed, but she also faced her daughter’s question directly: “This question is not easy to answer. Mom can only tell you that when you think this person is right, he will not be wrong.”
The word “right” sounds mysterious, but people who are in love will understand it very clearly – a few years ago, she once regretted that she had chosen the wrong person, but fortunately…
“Taozi, have you met someone you like?” Pei Naochun went straight to the point, “Take your time, don’t be anxious, you will feel it.”
Pei Tao hesitated: “Not really, it’s just…” She hesitated for a moment and chose to be honest with her parents. This was also the result of Pei Naochun’s efforts in the past few years. The family gradually got used to opening up to each other. “It’s our company’s latest partner. He seems to be pursuing me…”
When she was in college, she had a problem with her father in the first two years, and she was basically busy working. How could she have the time to fall in love? When her father turned over a new leaf, she spent time on the phone with her parents every day, making up for the social activities she missed in her freshman and sophomore years. After entering the workplace, she rose rapidly and followed her boss around. When she was lonely occasionally, she also yearned for love, but she never had the time and never met the right person.
Wu Liping’s eyes lit up instantly. This was probably a natural talent possessed by all mothers in the world: “What is the boy like? Is he good-looking? What’s his education background? Is he from City B?” She stopped talking. In fact, she could have asked more questions. Although her daughter only said that he wanted to pursue her, how could she not be sad!
Pei Tao was amused by her mother: “I don’t know all his details yet. He graduated from B City University of Science and Technology, majoring in computer science, and he is quite humorous and looks okay, but…”
“What is it?”
“The conditions are just too good.”
“This is not good.” Upon hearing this, Wu Liping immediately changed her tone. Although people these days live more realistically, Wu Liping has never thought of letting her daughter marry someone above her station. She hopes that Pei Tao can find a man who can respect her and work hard with her. After all, although the family cannot provide any outstanding conditions, it can at least allow her daughter to maintain a well-off life.
Pei Naochun didn’t know why, but he felt that the person sounded familiar. He couldn’t help but ask, “Who is that person? What job is he doing now?”
Wu Liping quickly hit her husband and glared at him, and then asked what to do if her daughter got shy later: “Taozi, don’t worry about your father, he just cares about you.”
“It’s okay, mom.” Pei Tao was not shy. To her, this boy who suddenly appeared just made her a little tempted. “You probably don’t know him. His name is Li Haoran. He runs a company called Haoran Technology.” She suddenly noticed something and pointed at the TV. “Look, that Haoran mobile phone is his business.”
Pei Tao was referring to the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala broadcast on TV. The host was reading out the names of sponsors and asking the audience to send text messages to participate in a lucky draw. The four words “Haoran Technology” were mentioned several times.
“Sounds familiar,” Wu Liping thought for a moment, “I remembered, just a few days ago, I was still reading the news and it said that he spent how much money to get the naming rights this time.”
Wu Liping usually read news with shocking headlines. She vaguely remembered that the headline of the news seemed to be “Spending 200 million, is it a foolish person with a lot of money or a long-term plan.” Her excitement was extinguished in an instant. Her family was a small citizen and had never expected their daughter to become a phoenix. When the other family heard about it, they realized that there was a big gap between them and their family. She looked at her husband, wanting him to express his attitude, and then she found that Pei Naochun was actually angry and ready to go. What happened again?
…Li Haoran, his daughter and wife didn’t know this name, so how could he not know it?
He had also seen the title sponsorship of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala on TV. Others said he was a fool, throwing money away just to promote a brand name, but Pei Naochun knew that this was not a waste of money. He spent 200 million, and the system rewarded him 200 million, which was equivalent to getting the title sponsorship for free! He was not stupid, but too smart.
Also, he clearly remembered that in the novel, there was a classic plot of standing up for love and getting slapped in the face. By this time, Li Haoran should have found a new prey – the famous movie star Lin Ke’er.
Furthermore, clearly in the novel, there was a classic slap in the face of defending love.
