Chapter 284: Chapter 284 The Definition Of A Successful Man
Mo Fei was acting weird, so did Mo Yizhi. Unlike how he treated normally, he actually asked Long Shan to brew a pot of very expensive Chinese tea for . Glancing at the tea caddy secretly, I was surprised to find that it was actually the sa as the tea that Dongfang gave to my old man as a gift.
The tea itself had a clear orange color and a wonderfully delicate and floral fragrance. With just one sip, I could imdiately taste a hint of sweetness. Although I was not as knowledgeable as my old man, I could still tell if the tea I was having now was the sa as the tea that Dongfang gave to my old man.
Dongfang that brat, where did she get those tea leaves? According to Long Shan, the tea leaves we were having were special-grade tea leaves. It was a type of tea leaves that even very wealthy people had a hard ti getting their hands on it, let alone ordinary people. Even Mo Yizhi himself only had two caddies of this kind of tea leaves, and it had cost him a lot of money to buy those two caddies.
But what made confused was why would they want to serve this kind of tea? I was not a tea person, serving this kind of tea was clearly a waste. After all, I would not be able to appreciate how good and how valuable this tea was. I didn’t know if it was because I didn’t like the expensive tea or I didn’t like the people who served this tea to , I always felt like the cheap tea back in my ho was much better than the tea I was drinking now. At least the cheap tea would make feel relaxed, but drinking this tea, it could only make feel uncomfortable all over…
“Chairman, if you have sothing to say, you can just tell directly. I am not an unreasonable person. Since I said that I would resign, I would definitely leave Fengchang.” I put down the tear cup, ignoring the check that Long Shan put on the table carefully, and said lightly, “I know you probably don’t mind humiliating twice, but at least, think about how I would feel. We all care about our faces, do we not?”
So this was the reason why he wanted to talk to ? I was very dissatisfied with Mo Yizhi’s attitude. If it weren’t for the sake of Mo Fei, I would have already splashed the tea on Mo Yizhi’s face.
Did he really think that I was the kind of person that would be bought by money?
Of course, I wouldn’t listen to Mo Fei’s suggestion and take the opportunity to extort money from him. Just like n didn’t understand won’s minds, won could hardly understand the dignity of n. Accepting this money would only give material wealth, but my dignity would beco worthless. It would not just be an insult to , but also to Mo Fei as well.
Mo Yizhi also smiled graciously, pretending to be dumb with , and said, “Little Chu, what do you an?”
‘It ans that you probably don’t want your face, but I want mine!’ Of course, I couldn’t say this to him directly, otherwise, it would only make look like a person who didn’t know any manners. I glanced at the folder in Mo Yizhi’s hand, and said lightly, “Chairman. I’m not here to play gas with you. You know what I want to say. So please just approve my resignation.”
Mo Yizhi was not angry with my impoliteness but kept shaking his head with a smile. After I finished speaking, he picked up the folder and said, “you think the reason why I took your file is that I want to find a reason to talk to you and then persuade you to leave Fengchang?”
“Is it not?” I was tired of beating around the bush. Earlier, Mo Fei did it, but now Mo Yizhi was also the sa.
“It is actually the opposite,” Mo Yizhi smiled bitterly, “I was worried that Fei’er would not allow you to see . She has high self-esteem, if the resignation is your answer to her, then no matter how sad she is, she will still allow you to leave… But now, it seems like I have underestimated her. Hehe, I wanted to discuss the following things with her as well, but I didn’t expect that she would ask a little girl in the general operation team to pass the folder. I know what she is thinking. Little Chu, since she is not worried about talking to you alone, then she must have told you sothing in advance, right? She definitely thinks that I would want to use the money to persuade you to leave the company again, so I guess that she must have told you to extort money from , right?”
No one understood a child better than their parents. Although Mo Yizhi was just Mo Fei’s uncle, Mo Yizhi still knew Mo Fei very well. His guess was actually correct.
But I didn’t feel embarrassed, because I never thought of taking his money at all, “So chairman is worried that Ms. Mo would approve my resignation?”
“Yes,” Mo Yizhi put down his teacup and said with a serious expression, “You may wonder why I would change my mind, but I sincerely hope that you can continue to stay in Fengchang.”
I was completely confused. Why would he want to stay in the company? “You want to stay in Fengchang?”
Mo Yizhi stood up, “Yes, can you stay in Fengchang, please.”
I was shocked. The dignified chairman of Fengchang Group actually bowed to when he said this. I hurriedly got up and stopped Mo Yizhi from bowing and said, “Chairman, what are you doing?”
With my help, Mo Yizhi sat back down on the sofa and chuckled bitterly, “Are you surprised?”
I nodded honestly, and then said seriously, “I don’t know what made you change your mind, but I have to tell you that I won’t change my mind. I’m sorry.”
“Oh?” Mo Yizhi was slightly surprised, “You don’t want to ask the reason?”
“No matter what kind of reason you have, my answer will still be the sa.” After speaking to Mo Fei, I was even more sure what would happen if I stayed. My resistance to Mo Fei was limited. After all, I was a man, not a saint.
My quick response made Mo Yizhi feel slightly embarrassed. Even Long Shan also showed a faint of displeased expression. At the mont, I looked like a foolish person who didn’t know how to appreciate other people’s kindness. However, I had no choice. Both Mo Fei and Mo Yizhi were smart people, who knew what they were really thinking. Maybe, like Mo Fei, Mo Yizhi was also testing at the mont.
“The answer will still be the sa… Sigh…” Mo Yizhi was not an ordinary person after all. He sighed, picked up the teapot, and filled my teacup with tea. “Little Chu, what kind of man is a successful man?” After pouring the tea, he suddenly asked this kind of question.
I was dazed for a second, not knowing why he would suddenly change the topic and ask this question. But after thinking about it carefully, I still answered seriously, “the criterion for a person’s success depends on the person’s life goals. The answer to this question varies from person to person,”
“I am not interested in other people’s definition of success, so just talk about your own definition.” Mo Yizhi said with interest, “Little Chu, what do you think is a successful man?”
“Having a car, a house, a wife, and a stable job that can support a family, then I think that I will be a successful man,” I said without feeling any sha.
Mo Yizhi was dazed, and Long Shan couldn’t help but chuckle. Because my definition of success exceeded their expectations. It took a long while before I heard Mo Yizhi clear his throat and say, “Your expectation of yourself is really low…”
I would not deny that one of the reasons why I had such low expectations of myself was that I was a lazy person who didn’t have any ambitions. However, Mo Yizhi and Long Shan seed to have forgotten one very important thing. For them, who didn’t lack money, this kind of goal could be reached easily. But there were a lot of people in society like who had to work very hard to reach this kind of goal.
Many people worked very hard just to have a roof over their heads. This was a true portrayal of the real society. Most people didn’t understand the hardships of life or they had long forgotten about it after they got rich. That was why I didn’t feel any sha when I said those words.
“Then do you think I am a successful man?”
Sitting in his own office, drinking an expensive tea brewed by a beautiful female secretary, he even had the audacity to ask this question? If he was not an old man, I would have already punched him in the face. Glancing at Long Shan secretly, I said, “having a successful company and a happy family, everyone is envious of Chairman’s success.”
Long Shan must have noticed my glance when I said the phrase a happy family, although she was a mature and calm woman, she still couldn’t help blushing. However, Mo Yizhi sighed, “But, I don’t have any children of my own…”
I was dazed. Long Shan lowered her head, her expression beca gloomy, and she also sighed quietly…
“Little Chu, if a man has no children of his own, do you think he is still a successful man?”
I didn’t know the answer to this question. After all, I was still trying to lose my virginity. But seeing the old man’s sad expression, I could only try to comfort him, “This is a pity, but it doesn’t affect your success. Besides, don’t you still have Fei- Ms. Mo?”
“Yes, I still have Fei’er,” The sadness disappeared on Mo Yizhi’s face imdiately. “Fei’er has been a sensible and obedient girl since she was very young. I treat her like my own daughter, and she respects like her father. She made up for the regrets in my life. So, the success of my life does not lie in how successful my business is, but in what I can do for her. As you said, the success of a man depends on his life goals, then, to make Fei’er happy all her life is my goal.”
I was moved by the old man’s parental love, but at the sa ti, I felt sothing was amiss. I always felt that he deliberately moved away from the original topic. He seed to be leading toward a specific topic. As expected, Mo Yizhi took a sip of tea to calm himself down. “Little Chu, the reason I hope you stay is to achieve my selfish goal…”
