Chapter 1100: Chapter 1101: Kindred Spirits at First Sight
Cheng Su and the others had lunch at the Cheng family, and then played two games of chess with Old Master Cheng. Seeing that he was tired, they tactfully suggested taking their leave.
"Su Girl, you’re not leaving so soon, are you?" The old man looked at Cheng Su, his eyes full of reluctance.
The old man saw Cheng Su as his little sister from his younger days, even though she didn’t resemble her at all, nor was she from the same ancestry. But he just felt they were alike.
As people grow older, they become more stubborn, and once something is decided in their minds, it doesn’t change. Old Master Cheng had firmly decided in his heart.
"We’ve been out for almost ten days now, and this market research is about done, so it’s time to head back." Cheng Su hesitated for a moment before saying.
The old man’s expression grew even sadder, and he said, "Can’t you stay a few more days?"
Cheng Su could only smile, saying, "I still have my studies to attend to, and I can’t just leave things at home. Besides, I have some businesses that I can’t just abandon!"
What she meant was that she truly couldn’t stay!
The old man let out a long sigh.
"Dad, don’t be like this. In the future, won’t Su Girl come to Guangcheng to do business? Then you’ll be able to meet again. Right?" Cheng Yaozong looked at Cheng Su and asked.
"Yes, there will always be a chance to meet again," Cheng Su said. "Guangcheng is a big city with a promising future, and I’m indeed quite interested."
The old man finally smiled and said, "Hmm, hmm, when you come, let your Second Brother Cheng help you."
Oh, Second Brother Cheng, my goodness, isn’t this a bit too passionate?
Cheng Yaozong pursed his lips and smiled, "We’re all kindred spirits, feel free to contact if you need anything. We’d surely help if we can."
Cheng Su nodded.
"Then I’ll also give you a call to nag sometimes!" the old man added.
"All right, take care of yourself!" Cheng Su smiled gently, adding, "No sneaking drinks!"
"All right, all right."
With a wave goodbye, she returned to the hotel in the same car.
The old man, supported and led back inside only after Cheng Su’s car disappeared, said to the second child, "If she really comes to do business in the future, lend her a hand!"
"Dad? Really keep in touch in the future?" Cheng Yaozong hesitated for a moment.
"Why not?" The old man stopped, looked at him, and said, "Do you look down on her?"
"It’s not that, it’s just that we’ve only met once or twice!" Cheng Yaozong said.
Old Master Cheng snorted, "Do you not know what it means to hit it off right away? That’s how it is with me and that girl. Some people, even if you’ve known each other a lifetime, you can’t truly connect with, but some people, at first sight, are worth befriending. I really like this Su Girl."
Isn’t it just because she has a personality like his sister? Cheng Yaozong muttered.
Old Master Cheng glared at him and said, "Don’t be so unconvinced. You’ve built a big business, met a lot of people, and do you think this girl is lacking in some way? In what way is she lacking? Her background is not inferior at all! Her business may not be as big as yours, but her backing might be just as strong as yours!"
Cheng Yaozong, duly chastised, looked embarrassed.
"I don’t care about the rest of you; in any case, I want to interact with this Su Girl as if she’s family." Old Master Cheng shrugged off his hand.
Cheng Yaozong was at a loss whether to laugh or cry—Old Master Cheng was getting more and more willful as he aged!
"Did Dad scold you?" Cheng Yaozu sidled over, grinning in schadenfreude.
"Go away, Dad said to prepare some local specialties to send to Cheng Su’s hotel for her to take back. From now on, treat her as family. Go, you might have to call her Great Aunt!" Cheng Yaozong instructed and walked away.
"What? Great Aunt? Second Brother, you’re joking, right? Second Brother..." Cheng Yaozu chased after him.
