Ding Chen’s enthusiasm was extinguished in an instant. His warm heart had not just turned cold, but also leaking air. On a closer look, it was filled with holes pierced by his precious niece.

He gritted his teeth and retaliated, “Then why didn’t you go to Tsinghua and Peking University? Is it because you don’t like them?”

Huo Tian did not realize that this was her uncle’s childish retaliation. She tilted her head and said in frustration, “That’s right, Tsinghua and Peking University are too far away from home. I don’t really like this, so I rejected their invitations. But I don’t remember telling Uncle about this. How did you know…”

Ding Chen was speechless. His expression was twisted for a moment, and he said resentfully, “I forgot that you’re a genius. I was really asking to be humiliated…”

Huo Tian did not understand what he meant and asked curiously, “Uncle, why did you say that?”

Bi Ying was a kind child. He could not bear to let Ding Chen fall into an awkward situation and took the initiative to change the topic. “Huo Tian, didn’t you tell Auntie Ding and Uncle Ding that you had received an invitation to attend Tsinghua University?”

Ding Chen quickly adopted a strict parental attitude. “Anyway, I don’t know about this. Tiantian, how could you forget such an important matter?”

Huo Tian stuck her tongue out guiltily. “Because I didn’t want to leave you and Mom, so I rejected this matter. But my teacher said that your opinions are definitely different from mine, so I thought I’d better not tell you guys…”

Ding Chen wanted to be angry, but Huo Tian’s words were so sweet that he could not. He felt conflicted for a while, then he shook his head helplessly and sighed. “You really have a childish temper. You’re already so old, but you still can’t leave the house…”

He could not help but let his thoughts wander. He felt that the reason Huo Tian was so clingy was definitely because she lacked love in the Huo Family. Hence, Ding Chen’s heart ached for his niece.

On the way, Ding Chen could not help but show off the company’s current results even though Huo Tian and Bi Ying didn’t show much enthusiasm in this.

“…Even though we only had a few small orders at the start, our business partners have all returned for repeat orders. The company is doing very well now. It’s not just me, even your Uncle Zhu has changed to BMW. As for Maserati and Rolls-Royce…”

Ding Chen shook his head in pain. “Although it’s not like our company can’t afford it, it’s normal for BMW MPVs to be purchased under the company’s name. If I were to buy a luxury sports car, we’d be suspected of tax evasion. Therefore, I can only buy it myself after receiving the year-end dividend.”

Huo Tian hadn’t forgotten what she had promised. “Uncle, I’ll buy it for you. I’ll definitely get more dividends than you, right?”

Ding Chen laughed. “Forget it. Your dividends will still have to be used to redeem the jade pendant back from Si Huan’s hands. Do you want to continue pawning the jade pendant in Si Huan’s hands? Although Si Huan won’t charge you more interest, that’s something your father left you. Don’t you want to get it into your hands sooner?”

Huo Tian had just remembered that there was such a thing when she slapped her head. “Oh right, I want to redeem my father’s jade pendant. Sigh! I don’t know where my father is now. I hope he is still living well in this world. If he dies, then I hope that Mom and I won’t hear any news about him for our entire lives. We can pretend that he’s still alive.”

Unlike Huo Tian’s natural fondness for this father whom she had never met, Ding Chen abhorred that scumbag who had gotten his sister pregnant and then disappeared completely. He sneered and cursed viciously.

“No, you should think about it differently. What if that scumbag ditched your mother and then formed a family with another woman, or even had another child? So, even if he’s still alive, you guys best treat it as if he’s dead!”

Looking at Huo Tian, who did not seem to have changed her mind, Ding Chen stroked her head and taught her sincerely, “Tiantian, remember that the best ex-lover is a deceased ex-lover.. So, if any boy dares to let you down in the future, curse him to go to hell sooner every day, okay?”
