The Good Dad System (Arc 8) Chapter 66.6: After the Daughter Married Into a Wealthy Family (42)

“…” Pei Daijun looked at the other person, their eyes met, but she couldn’t say a word.

“I’m serious. I’m going all out this time. Of course, it’s okay if you don’t agree. I just hope we can continue like this and work together.” His eyes were extremely focused, and he began to recite his assets according to what he had prepared. “You know my family situation. I have a grandfather. I had several relationships abroad, but they ended when I returned to China. I’m still single and unmarried now. You probably know a little about the assets I own…”

“Wait, why are you telling me all this?” Pei Daijun stopped talking helplessly and stammered, “I’m living very well alone.” She no longer had any excessive desire for marriage.

“I know.” Gu Changqin shrugged. He knew in his heart, “I just want a chance to be close to your heart, not a chance to own you.”

He handed over the flowers: “Although it may seem a bit narcissistic to say this, I should still be a decent partner. I can’t give you any guarantees, but I will always respect you and put you in an important position…” He hesitated and suddenly smiled.

“What are you laughing at?” she couldn’t help asking.

“I laugh at myself for overthinking things. You haven’t even agreed yet, and I’m already thinking about the future.” Gu Changqin’s voice was filled with laughter. “If we really get together in the future, I’ll sign a prenuptial agreement with you. If I cheat, I’ll leave the house, and I promise you that after we’re together, I won’t need you to stay home for me. Vice President Pei, who’s so successful out there, is really outstanding and beautiful. Am I thinking too far into the future?”

“Yes.” Pei Daijun stared at the flowers blankly and smiled as well, “But I still don’t seem to be that eager for a new relationship or marriage.”

Gu Changqin felt a little disappointed, and he forced a smile: “It’s okay, I hope I didn’t make you feel abrupt or uncomfortable…” He was in a terrible mood, but in front of the woman he liked, he still hoped to maintain at least some demeanor. This is a man who cares too much about face.

Pei Daijun suddenly stood up and took the rose. She hugged the flower, and perhaps because of the light, her face was a little red. “…I’m fine. Maybe…I can give you a promise that’s not really a promise? I’ll try to open my heart, and you can keep trying.”

This was probably the twist of events. Gu Changqin stopped and looked at her seriously: “Okay.”

In the bathroom, Pei Naochun was sitting on the toilet, feeling extremely bored. He couldn’t see the scene outside, so he could only silently send messages to Gu Changqin: “How is it? Are you done?”, “If Daijun is unhappy, leave quickly, or I’ll beat you when I get out!”, “Don’t push me so hard. I shouldn’t be persuaded by you. Daijun’s happiness is more important.”

It is conceivable that the two people outside would have to look at each other shyly for a while, and they probably couldn’t pay attention to Pei Naochun who was squatting in the toilet in a daze.

…

Pei Naochun was in good health and lived to be 88 years old. He left this world after celebrating his full birthday. When he passed away, his daughter and son-in-law were by his side. At that time, Gu Changqin pursued Pei Daijun for another five years before he finally won her heart. The two were not only emotionally devoted to each other, but also the best partners in their careers.

Gu Changqin kept his word. Even though Pei Daijun was unwilling, he still forced her to sign the agreement and transferred all the property except the Xinghao Group shares that could not be moved to Pei Daijun’s name. After marriage, Pei Daijun did not return to the family, but continued to run the business world. With the joint efforts of the two, the Xinghao Group grew bigger and bigger and became the pride of the Chinese people.

For them, their careers and each other were everything in their lives. They’d agreed early on in their marriage not to have children. Pei Naochun had asked Gu Changqin about this, and he said, first, he didn’t want a child to hinder Pei Daijun’s progress; second, he didn’t want to take any risks by allowing her to give birth at an advanced age. Third, he felt that the fulfillment and busyness of their careers were more than enough. Since they couldn’t properly give a child their love and attention, it was better not to raise one. Given their financial resources, IVF or a surrogate mother wouldn’t be a problem, but neither of them took it seriously.

Later, Pei Naochun heard the name of Tiansheng Group several times. The funding chain of several of their projects was broken, and they had to cut off their operations to survive. Branches were closed one after another, leaving only the headquarters in City B. He also heard that Sheng Junhao remarried several times, but this had nothing to do with their family, so he no longer paid attention to it.

In Pei Naochun’s later years, his son-in-law and daughter were often by his side. At that time, Pei Daijun and Gu Changqin had also reached retirement age. They happily transferred the management rights of the company to the subordinates they had trained together, and took him around the world. He would show the travel scenes of his family of three in the live broadcast room from time to time. Lao Pei’s live broadcast room also expanded into new business, crossing over from the food category to the travel category.

Until his death, Pei Daijun and Gu Changqin were as loving as ever. They had been together a little late, but because of this, they cherished every day with each other even more. Their eyes and hearts were filled with love. Pei Naochun also ate a lot of dog food.

In his final moments, Pei Naochun placed their hands together and quietly closed his eyes. He knew his daughter had found the right person for her life and had become strong and indestructible, capable of surviving even with nothing. As a father, he had no regrets about no longer burdening his daughter.
