Chapter 327
From the moment he started talking, Liu Qing listened attentively.
"Chen Shaohua, come in!"
She spoke, but not to Chen Pingan, but to Chen Shaohua who was on the balcony at that time.
Chen Shaohua put out his cigarette, walked in and sat on the sofa.
"Did you tell him anything before?
Ping An, tell me, is it because of what your father told you that you decided to drop out of school?"
Liu Qing looked quite calm.
Chen Pingan glanced at Chen Shaohua, and seeing him shrug his shoulders but remain silent, he took a breath and said:
"Mom, it's not entirely because of what Dad said to me.
It’s because of me.”
After organizing his words a little, he continued:
"From my own perspective, working backward from what I can see in the future to now, to achieve my goals...
No, to be precise, my goal is not very clear, only a rough outline.
But even so, if I want to reach that vague goal, I have to drop out of school.
If the school doesn't agree to my suspension, I might drop out.
Otherwise I would be really unhappy.”
A satisfied smile appeared in Chen Shaohua's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He was afraid that Liu Qing would discover his emotions, and then he would be the only one to suffer.
Liu Qing frowned and said after listening:
"Okay, this is from your perspective, what other perspectives are there?
Say it all.
You haven't been home for the past few years, and I don't know what you've been through.
I'm worried about you suddenly having to take a leave of absence."
Chen Pingan looked at Chen Shaohua helplessly.
But unexpectedly, Chen Shaohua still shrugged at him with a smile, but did not say anything.
This means...
You can make decisions and execute them, but you also have to bear the consequences yourself?
So this is the live version of independence?
"Mom, I'm a member of the Chen family now."
He spoke.
Liu Qing frowned slightly, "Me too. So what?"
“I don’t know what to say.
Basically, I want to do something for the Chen family.
As one of the aristocratic families, the Chen family faces competition and difficulties, even if they haven't surfaced yet, they definitely exist."
Liu Qing's voice was harsh, "What can you do as a kid who just graduated from high school?"
Chen Shaohua almost laughed out loud, but he coughed a few times to hold back his laughter.
Liu Qing's attention was all on Chen Pingan.
"So no matter what the future holds for the Chen family, I will always do something for this family.
Whatever it is.”
Liu Qing's brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Why is it that the more you talk, the less clear it becomes? Or am I not understanding?"
Chen Pingan could only smile bitterly.
He couldn't possibly say, "If I'm not mistaken, my father meant that I, Chen Xiaolong, and even other young generations of the Chen family should compete with each other, and eventually cultivate a ruthless and capable head of the family," right?
"Mom, since I've decided to drop out of school, I'm ready to bear the consequences.
I plan to start learning about the Chen family and familiarizing myself with their business from my dad soon.
Also, how to manage the family business and so on.
I will continue to study on my own and will not give up..."
He spoke a little eagerly, but soon became discouraged.
"I need to go all out to enrich myself. I don't know when it will be useful, but sooner or later, it will be useful."
Liu Qing looked at the big boy. Although he had a vague guess in his mind, this was not something he could tell Chen Pingan.
She sighed. "You are an adult now. You have your own independent thoughts."
Since you have already made your decision, I can't say anything more.
Just be mentally prepared.
But don't worry, even if you don't have any degree in the future, we won't have a hard life.
There is always a place for you in such a big Chen family."
"Okay, let's stop here." Chen Shaohua spoke.
He stood up and walked over to pat Chen Ping'an on the shoulder, "Since it has come to this, then keep going.
Come on, follow me to the company!"
"No, my computer and books are still at school."
"Oh, is that so? Then go ahead and come directly to the company to find me later."
Chen Pingan nodded, stood up and said to Liu Qing: "Mom, I'm going to school."
Liu Qing waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
A moment later, Chen Pingan left the house and went downstairs while notifying Shaoji.
In the room, Liu Qing stared at Chen Shaohua without saying a word, with a hint of anger on his face.
"Ahem, wife, don't stare at me like that."
Chen Shaohua said awkwardly: "This is his own choice.
I didn't force him.
Even I disagreed at first.
Kyoto is a good school, right?
Besides, it's our alma mater, so as a family tradition, he should also get a degree from Kyoto University."
Liu Qing snorted and said, "Don't try that on me. Will you tell me or not?"
Chen Shaohua laughed, "Okay, then I'll tell you in detail.
This matter actually started with the issue between Ping An and his biological father Fang Junhong.
……
Now do you understand the dilemma he faces?
The reason I didn't give any further hints was to avoid him having any opinions about me in the future.
Only he can make the decision himself. Otherwise, as you said, no matter how powerful the Chen family is, he will still have a place in it."
Liu Qing's eyes were slightly red. "Don't you think this is a bit too cruel for him?"
Chen Shaohua sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do. If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine.
Since he entered the Chen family, he had no choice but to face it.
If he wants to escape, I won't say a word to him.
It’s his own choice!”
……
More than an hour later, when Chen Pingan, Shaoji and others entered the Chen Group, Fang Junhong had just come out of the airport.
Almost at the same time, the joint inspection team of the Chen and Huo families was already in the terminal waiting to board the plane.
What a coincidence, it was the same plane that Fang Junhong came on.
