Fang Zhiqiang has been immersed in the information and completely lost track of time. It wasn't until his cell phone rang suddenly that he suddenly woke up. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was his father calling.

　“Hello, Dad?”

“Qiangzi, what time is it, why aren’t you back yet?” came his father’s old voice.

Only then did Fang Zhiqiang see the time. It was already after nine o'clock in the evening. He didn't feel hungry or tired, and he completely forgot about the time. He even forgot about the fact that his father was at home alone. Completely forgotten about it.

"Ah, Dad, I had something to work overtime on, so I forgot to call you. I'm going back now, and we'll go out to eat." Fang Zhiqiang felt extremely guilty. He brought his father here so that he could take better care of his father, but in the end he did nothing and made his father worried.

"It's okay, I've already cooked. Come back and drive carefully on the road." The father said and hung up the phone.

Fang Zhiqiang hung up the phone, quickly packed his things and rushed home.

When I got home, my father had already laid out the food: "I've warmed it up. Eat it quickly. Why do you look so ugly? Are you sick? Why are you back so late?"
/>
"No, I just have something to do. I'm probably busy. I haven't eaten yet, so I may look a little bad." In fact, it's because, as soon as I get home, I feel the familiar, Xiaoxiao smell, and everything related to it. Memories related to her began to flood in again.

His father didn’t say anything more, just urging him to eat quickly. Fang Zhiqiang actually had no appetite and didn't feel hungry at all, but looking at his father's face, he knew that his father had been waiting for him and he hadn't eaten anything, so he sat down and went to eat with his father.

The father and son just kept their heads down in silence, eating their meals separately. His father was always taciturn, and Fang Zhiqiang was not in the mood at all, so the atmosphere was so deserted.

I don’t know how long it took, but my father suddenly spoke: "Qiangzi, does your behavior today have something to do with Xiaoxiao? Have you gone to find her?"

Fang Zhiqiang’s abnormal appearance is so obvious that it is impossible for his father not to notice it, and these days, for them, the most sensitive and critical topic is undoubtedly Li Xiaoxiao. So my father would naturally think of Li Xiaoxiao.

As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Zhiqiang suddenly felt that he could no longer swallow the food in his mouth. What happened has already happened, and there is no point in hiding it any longer. His father will find out sooner or later. Li Xiaoxiao's continued absence can explain everything. So Fang Zhiqiang put down his chopsticks and said to his father briefly: "Dad, don't ask about Xiaoxiao anymore. From now on, she will be with us.It doesn't matter anymore. "

"I did go to find her today. But it was her parents who came to me first and asked me to persuade Xiaoxiao not to be with me. "

His father did not hold the chopsticks and dropped them directly to the ground. He did not bother to pick them up. He asked Fang Zhiqiang in surprise: "Then you really went to persuade Xiaoxiao like this? Can't you just go for it? "

Fang Zhiqiang smiled bitterly: "Dad, I fought for it, but it was of no use. It’s still my fault that I didn’t work hard enough, that I was too far behind others, and that it was not good for Xiaoxiao. It’s really a pity for such a good girl like Xiaoxiao to follow me. "

The father was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "So Xiaoxiao, what is her opinion? "It seems that father and Xiaoxiao are similar, both of them are unwilling to give up. After all, this is related to his son's happiness. He has already regarded Xiaoxiao as his daughter-in-law, and he regards Li Xiaoxiao's feelings for Fang Zhiqiang. In my eyes, I don’t believe that Li Xiaoxiao gives up so easily. Therefore, what Li Xiaoxiao’s parents said is indeed right. Parents have the same heart, and they only hope that their children can be happy.

"Dad, marriage is a big matter, and it cannot be decided by her alone. Her parents are so opposed to it. No matter what she does, she can't not feel sorry for her parents at all, right? I'm not very nice to her. If she feels sad for a few days, she should figure it out. "

The father was stunned, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he suddenly said: "Is this retribution? At that time, I objected to you being with that girl, and felt that you two were not suitable; now Xiaoxiao’s parents are also opposed to you two..."

The father's expression was obviously very uncomfortable: "If that's true , just let the retribution fall directly on me. I am already old and have no one to look forward to. I just want you to live well and find someone to live with. Why does it have to fall on you and Xiaoxiao? Woolen cloth? "

"Dad, what are you talking about? "Fang Zhiqiang was shocked. He didn't expect that his father was actually worried about him because of his original opposition to him and Yaxin, and his father felt uncomfortable.

"Dad, I have known Xiaoxiao for several years, and these problems have existed since then and have nothing to do with you. Even if you didn't object at that time, Xiaoxiao and I were still not suitable, and it wasn't your fault at all. "

"In the final analysis, this matter is all my fault. If I had fought for it earlier, I wouldn't be in this situation today. "Fang Zhiqiang lowered his head.

It's just that earlier, he was still madly in love with Yaxin, and it was impossible for him to express anything to Xiaoxiao anymore. When he realized it, it was already like this . Maybe he and Xiaoxiao really met at the wrong time, so everything was a miss and a mistake.

“Dad, don’t be too difficult.pass. You have said it a long time ago, Xiaoxiao is a good girl, and she is worthy of any kind of good family. It’s because I don’t have that blessing and I’m not worthy of her. "Fang Zhiqiang reluctantly comforted his father.

"But what should you do. "My father sighed, "You are not young anymore. How come these two are missed in the end. How long can this delay? "

Fang Zhiqiang didn't want to discuss it any more. If he thought about it, he could only think of his so-called love affair that he didn't know was true or false, which would only make him even more upset: "Dad, don't talk about this. Well, at this stage, I don’t want to talk about these things. I just have some ideas for company development, so I will focus on developing my career first. A man does not have a career as a foundation, nor is he qualified to talk about relationships. If he marries someone, he has no ability to make others happy. ”

Of course Fang Zhiqiang knows that the happiness Li Xiaoxiao wants has nothing to do with material things. It’s just that there will no longer be another Li Xiaoxiao in the world, so he can only give such empty comfort. Looking at my father.

"Then you can't just be a bachelor for the rest of your life. Besides, Xiaoxiao, we have indeed reached a high level and are not worthy of it. Then you can be considered to have a company now, right? It doesn't count. If you don’t have money, there are other suitable girls, so give it serious consideration. ”

Fang Zhiqiang wanted to smile bitterly. Let’s not talk about whether he can still meet the so-called suitable girl. Even if he does, he has no way to step out and invest in the next relationship.< br />
