When Chairman Xia saw him like this, the anger that was originally surging to his head was slightly suppressed:
"Xingxing, I’ve been knocking on the door for so long. Why didn’t you open it while you were home?"
Despite suppressing his anger, Chairman Xia’s tone was stern and filled with a sense of reprimand when he spoke to the young man inside the house.
Ning Youguang stood silently behind Chairman Xia, observing the young man inside the house.
At a glance, he was taken aback by the immense sorrow enveloping the young man’s entire being.
"Uncle." After a long while, the young man raised his head, looking at his stern-faced uncle, half-opened eyes, and said in a dreary tone, "I’m sorry, I... maybe I’m not in a good state right now."
When he said this, the young man’s voice was choked with emotion, as if he were on the verge of breaking down.
...
After leaving the villa area, Ning Youguang sat quietly in Chairman Xia’s car.
Next to her, Chairman Xia looked troubled: "Mr. Ning, do you think my nephew is sick? I’ve advised him and taught him several times, yet he’s still like this. His condition is even worse than the last time I saw him. I really don’t know what to do with him, but I can’t just ignore him, can I? After all, he’s the only son left by my elder brother."
A decisive and seemingly omnipotent entrepreneur in the business world, he now found himself helpless with his nephew who was deeply depressed.
"I can take on his case, but he needs to come to my office himself."
Ning Youguang thought about the situation she just witnessed and agreed.
Chairman Xia seemed to have heard a blessing and was almost moved to tears, "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Ning, for being willing to take my nephew’s case. That’s truly wonderful."
After saying this, he excitedly rubbed his large hands, "Rest assured, I’ll have my assistant transfer the consultation fee to your account soon. If my nephew shows any improvement, I, Xia, will surely repay you generously."
Ning Youguang smiled at him and said nothing.
Chairman Xia looked at her gentle and calm face and gradually calmed down: "Mr. Ning, sorry, I’m a businessman, just a rough sort, not as cultured as you. If there’s anything impolite, please pardon me."
Chairman Xia had built a very successful career.
He was now the owner of a publicly listed company, quite wealthy.
In a place like the capital, filled with concealed talents, he surely couldn’t claim to rank among the major figures.
But still, he was a person of significance.
The driver in the front seat had followed the boss for a long time and was used to seeing him display a commanding presence and being respected by others.
It was rare to see him lower his posture so much towards someone, especially a young girl with an unremarkable name.
Listening to the boss’s words, he almost lost control of the steering wheel.
Once he safely drove the young girl to the University of Science and Technology of China,
he cautiously asked the boss seated in the back, who was noticeably more relaxed than before.
"Chairman, is this young lady a graduate student at the University of Science and Technology of China?"
He was guessing high regarding her identity because, after all, the young and pretty girl didn’t seem much different from an average college student.
But he didn’t expect to get a look from his boss with an expression that said he was narrow-minded, "Graduate student? You have no sense."
"If she’s not a graduate student, then is she a teacher?" The driver was surprised.
"She’s not just a teacher. She’s a professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, a professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, you understand?"
The driver completely lost grip on the steering wheel.
After the car made several winding turns and finally stabilized on the road again,
he broke out in a cold sweat and apologized to the boss: "Chairman, I’m sorry, this is really unexpected."
Usually, Chairman Xia, who maintained a demeanor and was quite stern with his subordinates, was unexpectedly accommodating today even though there was a near-accident, saying, "Keep the car steady next time, don’t panic."
"Yes, yes, yes." The driver dared not say any more idle words.
But Chairman Xia fell silent for a while and couldn’t help but chat idly with the driver: "It’s no wonder you’re so surprised. I also didn’t expect the psychologist Mr. Ming introduced to me would be such a young girl."
He looked impressed: "Everyone in the circle says Dr. Ning is incredibly capable, able to cure any case she takes. She is, after all, her stepdaughter, such a good girl, she’s truly fortunate."
The most important thing is that this Dr. Ning is not just an ordinary psychologist.
She’s also a young researcher in the Academy of Sciences of USTC, saying she’s a genius wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
What surprised him even more was that this girl possessed such stunning beauty.
It was really unexpected.
Ning Yi and Xia Youqing actually gave birth to such a daughter.
It wasn’t until today when he met Dr. Ning did Chairman Xia understand why Ning Yi often boasted about his daughter in his circle of friends, yet never brought her out for everyone to see.
It’s to avoid too much attention.
All of us fathers with daughters understand each other’s hearts, don’t we? 1314
