He Tiantian: "Mr. He, Mrs. He, you probably don’t know, but your dear daughter doesn’t want to have children at all!"
Of course, Mr. He didn’t know that his daughter refused to have children because she feared pain and losing her beauty, but all he wanted to know now was who that mysterious big shot was!
After taking a deep breath, Mr. He redialed the number.
Once the call connected, to prevent his daughter from quickly hanging up again, Mr. He immediately said, "Don’t rush to hang up! I need to ask you something!"
"Ah, Dad, what could it be?" He Tiantian spoke impatiently.
"It’s about the company! Serious business!" Mr. He was equally annoyed.
Bringing up such a carefree daughter was a mistake, but oh, she really was clueless.
"Dad, why are you asking me about the company?"
He Tiantian blurted this out with such a righteous tone that it almost knocked Mr. He over backward.
"What do you mean, ’Why ask you about the company’? Don’t you remember that you are the general manager of He Group?" The future heir?!
Even Mr. He’s usually good temper was now frayed, and he almost shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Dad, you said it, I’m just the general manager, not the chairman! Besides, everyone in the company, even the cleaning staff, knows I’m just a figurehead who signs papers and stamps approvals. Asking me about serious business? That’s a joke!"
He Tiantian felt no embarrassment about being just a "mascot," a "human rubber stamp."
It was as if she was questioning Mr. He, "Don’t you know what everyone else knows?"
His blood pressure was soaring, his heartbeat racing!
Both he and his wife were shrewd and hardworking people; how could they have raised such a wasteful daughter?
"...You, you still have the nerve to say that?" Holding back and holding back, Mr. He finally lost his patience.
But before he could lecture his daughter, He Tiantian muttered, "Here we go again!"
And then the call was disconnected again!
Without hesitation, Mr. He, shaking, redialed the number.
As soon as it connected, before He Tiantian could complain, "Why are you calling again," she heard a lion’s roar through the receiver: "He Sitian, try hanging up on me one more time!"
He Tiantian really wanted to retort, "Go ahead, try it."
However, considering that the man on the other end of the phone was her father, and knowing that his blood pressure was somewhat high, He Tiantian held back.
After all, no matter how much she kept up appearances, she couldn’t be the one to send her own father to his grave.
"Dad, why are you shouting, you scared me!"
He Tiantian grumbled unhappily but, in the end, didn’t dare hang up directly.
Mr. He took a few deep breaths to slightly calm his emotions.
This unfilial daughter, having hung up on him repeatedly, infuriated him so much that he almost forgot the serious business.
Regaining his composure, Mr. He clenched his teeth and asked, "Tell me the truth, where did you get Xiao E from?"
The old man’s words carried restrained anger.
Hmm, the old man was on the verge of erupting; a single spark could set him off.
He Tiantian shrank her neck, seemingly intimidated by her father, and replied in a slightly timid tone, "I told you, I bought it for five hundred thousand!"
"... " Mr. He was furious, "He Sitian, I am your father!"
The one and only, Dad!
And you’re spouting the same insincere lies to me?
"Dad? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital? Hey? Has Alzheimer’s started to affect younger people now?"
He Tiantian mumbled uncertainly, almost sending her biological father on his way.
But, Mr. He, finding humor in his suffering, thought: At least my daughter doesn’t really mean to kill me, and in her eyes, her father is still very young.
"He, Si, Tian!" Mr. He called out, enunciating each syllable.
Finally sensing her father’s overwhelming fury, He Tiantian didn’t dare to joke further and quickly said, "Dad, my dear father, I really didn’t lie to you!"
"That thing, I really bought it from a weird forum!"
"I thought the admin spoke confidently, sounded capable. Besides, five hundred thousand isn’t too expensive, so I just gave it a try!"
He Tiantian started explaining sincerely, but as she continued, her tone reverted to being nonchalant again.
