"Uncle Bo Qin, it’s such a pity."
Bo Qin felt it was quite a pity too and nodded, "Indeed, it is quite a pity."
Isn’t it just a pity?
But Bo Qin also brought her a lot of fun, teaching her how to fish, how to grill fish, and finally how to dive. No matter what he taught her, he was extraordinarily patient. Bo Qin told her that he regretted her growth. When he first took her to the capital, he planned to be with her as she grew up, but the company’s affairs overwheld him. The elders retired, and he stepped up. Being the eldest in the family, he couldn’t just throw the responsibilities onto his younger brothers’ shoulders. Of course, he didn’t explain it in such detail.
He simply said sorry to Jian Dan, that during her growth, he hadn’t provided her with any warmth. Only the house servants had always been there for her.
Jian Dan was especially easy to move. She didn’t want to cry, but when she saw Bo Qin explain so earnestly, she couldn’t hold back. Later, she restrained her tears and smiled, "Uncle Bo Qin, you have already been very good to ."
At least she had food and clothing without worry.
If Bo Qin hadn’t taken her to the capital, her life under the watch of the wolfish and leopard-like relatives in Feng City would have been worrying.
Those relatives, before her father’s death, had been so unreasonable. Without Bo Qin’s appearance after her father passed, she would have been stripped of every penny by them.
Bo Qin knew her worries and ruffled her hair carelessly, "Don’t worry, since I brought you to the capital, everything about Feng City has nothing to do with you."
Jian Dan nodded heavily, "Mm."
There was fruit prepared on the yacht. After eating the grilled fish, Bo Qin got up to wash so tropical fruit for her, which was not only sweet but also cooling.
Jian Dan walked to the end of the yacht, stepped down onto the ladder, squatted at the edge, and placed the waterlon she held into the seawater. Little fish sward around, pecking at the waterlon in her hand. She stared at the little fish in a daze, while Bo Qin watched her from above. The young girl looked so small and pitiful squatting there.
He didn’t disturb her, worrying she was deep in thought. After watching for a while, he reminded her, "Jianjian, be careful not to get your legs numb and fall into the sea. Co up."
Jian Dan looked up slightly, "Oh."
She scampered back up and walked up to Bo Qin, playing cute and asked, "Uncle Bo Qin, can I go snorkeling again later?"
Bo Qin saw right through her, "Want to play with the fish?"
Jian Dan looked at him in astonishnt, "How did you know?"
Bo Qin laughed, "Your thoughts are written all over your face. What don’t I know?"
Jian Dan exclaid, her eyes gleaming with joy, "Then, Uncle Bo Qin, may I go snorkeling?"
"You can, but we need to tie a rope around your waist. Otherwise, I worry you’ll drift too far and not be able to co back."
Jian Dan felt embarrassed, as before when snorkeling, Bo Qin had always been with her, otherwise, she really wouldn’t have been able to return, following the fish into the distance.
Jian Dan played with the fish in the sea, so engrossed that she was not tired at all. Bo Qin leaned to one side and watched her, his mood also improving. During this period, negotiating with Haicheng Group had made his nerves not overly tense, but the long hours of work still tired him out.
Previously, he had been on a business trip abroad. Right after that, he had been in non-stop negotiations. Taking Jian Dan out had been a spur-of-the-mont decision, and he hadn’t expected her to be so happy and easily satisfied.
Wen Xue told him that when he took her out, especially Jian Dan had been very well-behaved.
She would take whatever was given and didn’t make any demands.
Bo Qin thought that maybe it wasn’t that she didn’t make demands, but that she was afraid of being disliked by him. Jian Dan was too naive, especially easy to understand. He was thinking about how to ease her defensiveness and worries because no matter what, he wouldn’t abandon people, unless in the future when she got married, perhaps then he might stop caring.
But for now, the young girl was still young, such things need not be overly concerned about.
When they returned from the sea, four hours had passed. Secretary Zhou’s car had been waiting at the port for so ti, but this ti, Wen Xue wasn’t there.
Jian Dan’s little face was flushed with enjoynt. After greeting Secretary Zhou, she sat in the car, sleepy-headed.
Bo Qin reminded her, "We haven’t taken a ride on the motorboat yet. Don’t you want to?"
Jian Dan’s face fell, full of regret, "I still want to, Uncle Bo Qin. Do you have any good suggestions?"
"My suggestion is, keep looking forward to it, and co play next ti."
Jian Dan still wanted to play, but she really didn’t have the energy, "Okay then, let’s go ho."
...
Worried that Jian Dan wanted to continue having fun, Secretary Zhou had changed the plane tickets. But, unexpectedly, Jian Dan couldn’t play anymore. He thought about changing the tickets again, but Bo Qin said it wasn’t necessary. Jian Dan’s exhaustion was tiring just to look at. He wanted Jian Dan to rest, even if just for an hour. It would be better to go after she had rested well.
