The family happily finished their al here, never having imagined that this day would co so soon, nor that it would be filled with such warmth. They always thought that they would never have another chance to share a reunion al with their family in this lifeti. But when the day arrived, they could hardly believe that these were their own relatives. They had made many mistakes, hurting their family ti and again, yet their family had surprisingly let bygones be bygones and forgiven them, even allowing them to sit here and share breakfast. To them, this happiness ca too unexpectedly.
"Dad, do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this day? I never thought it would co so quickly. When it ca, I could hardly believe it was real; I still feel like it’s just a dream because I’ve dread of this scene countless tis in my dreams, and now it’s really happening around . I can hardly believe it."
"In the past, I have done many things wrong that I’ve felt sorry for our family about, and I have paid a heavy price for those things. Although you know I haven’t been happy outside, hearing talk about my experiences, deep down you are just as pained as I am. No matter how cruel I have been to you, no matter how much I have hurt you, deep down you will never bla , because I am your family!"
Zhang Zhentian was right; no matter what, his father would never bla him. How could a father have the heart to bla his own child? He only wanted his child to live a healthy and happy life. At least his child could still live happily in this world. Isn’t that the greatest comfort for a father?
In fact, Old Master Zhang was the one who suffered the most inside, because it was his selfish actions that drove his own son out of the house and made his son’s life so hard. These years, his son endured so much suffering outside. As a father, how could he not be affected deep down? He couldn’t show it; he was the pillar of the family. No matter when or where, he had to remain calm, otherwise their ho would have been breached by others long ago.
Zhang Yichen understood Old Master Zhang the best. He knew what his grandfather truly felt inside, and he also knew that although his grandfather appeared calm on the surface, there were great waves churning deep within him.
He understood that all the composure his grandfather showed was a disguise, not allowing others to easily see through what he was really thinking. If they could, maintaining this family would be incredibly difficult. Haven’t many people been eyeing our family with disdain? They have not been able to bring down our family over these many years because they still have the backing of our grandfather.
No one dares to act rashly in front of Elder Zhang, because they know that Old Master Zhang’s word is the law, and his actions are ruthless and decisive. It’s precisely because of this that, seeing him still around, even if many had grievances against the Zhang Family, they did not dare to show them, not to ntion that now a prodigious genius has erged.
"Grandfather, now that dad has co back, let’s not dwell on the past and hold each other accountable for past events. Let’s live happily together. That’s enough for each day. Dwelling on the past will only bring more sorrow. The past should have turned to ash with the passing ti. Why cling to it so stubbornly, making others and ourselves live unhappily? Isn’t what we all want is collective happiness?"
"Child, you’re correct, every word you say, deep down in my heart, I know is true. Because you are the child I watched grow up, the child I raised with my own hands. I am well aware of all your deeds, and I understand the aning behind each of your words better than anyone else does. Even if the whole world doesn’t understand or agree with your actions, your grandfather understands, your grandfather believes that all you do is for the good of the family. Everything you’ve done is in hope of a happy and joyful life for your loved ones. You never intended to hurt your family, not even the slightest bit. You’d rather suffer all grievances to ensure your grandfather lives a joyful life!
Do you really think that no one knows what you have done? The company was once facing difficulties, and you, alone, shouldered the burden without telling anyone, because you didn’t want anyone to step in and help. You wanted to prove your strength; you wanted the veterans in the company to know that as long as you are there, the company will never collapse. Ti and again facing massive financial gaps, it was through your own connections and network that you secured all the help, believing only in yourself as the most powerful person in the world. For your company, for this family, you gave up everything you wanted, gave up your dreams. Grandfather knows that from the beginning, your dream was not here; it was bigger, broader, but you gave it up for grandfather, for the family!
I have always wanted to ask you, having given up on your dream, do you have any regrets? To prove to your parents that you were right, that you are the strongest, and show them that abandoning you was wrong. So you would give up the goals you most wished to achieve; do you truly have no regrets in your heart?"
When Zhang Zhentian and Xia Jing heard Old Master Zhang say these words, they both were deeply shocked. They had not realized that their son had dreams, that being an entrepreneur was not his dream. It was precisely because of their actions that their son gave up on his goals, gave up his most important ideals. As parents, are we becoming more and more incompetent? Why is it that nothing we do seems right? What can we do to make up for the suffering our child has gone through over these years? How can we fill the regrets deep in our child’s heart?
"Grandfather, I have never regretted any decision I’ve made. No matter whether or not there are regrets in the depth of my heart, I will not bla anyone. It was my choice to make, and I must see it through!"
