About my hopeless brother and sister

"I don't know if my sister has one, but I'm not going to learn."

I said, shaking my head.

Uncle Lin nodded and I couldn't see any appreciation or disappointment in his face. I didn't know what he was trying to say by asking this question, and I didn't understand how it was logically related to the question about getting married before.

"Then, let me explain. Qin Feng, the problem you and Qin Yun are now facing is a company with a market value of several tens of billions of dollars. When you do the math, even if you split it in pairs, the net worth of each of you two is nearly ten billion."

"Huh?"

Uncle Lin, with a calm face, said the numbers that I didn't even remember. What what what did you say? Nearly $10 billion in net worth? What is this concept, is this a sign that my sister and I are both rich? Oh no, no, no, no. Is it the rich generation? How come I don't feel like a rich person at all.

Uncle Lin smiled and seemed to be very satisfied with this reaction of mine, he leaned on the back of the chair and said, "You may not understand, your father's initial venture was a new energy enterprise, so, it is not closely related to your life, but now, this enterprise, after more than ten years of hard work by your uncle and me, has now, become a business in Russia, Europe , an American multinational corporation, it's not an exaggeration to talk about this asset."

I had no concept at all, although it was my parents' company, but but I didn't know any information at all, my uncle never said anything about the company's operation, I never cared, for my sister and I, this company was not related to us at all, in our impression, this company should have gone to my uncle already.

"Then...then what does that mean..."

I didn't know what to say at all, I just stared at Uncle Lin, who smiled and shook the glass, which vibrated with golden liquor, and he said through it, "Ahhh. This money doesn't mean anything, because we still need it to go around, and you know that money is something that flows to bring in more money, but siphoning it off at random will cause the whole river to dry up. So, don't miss it too much. However, according to your parents' wills, after death, when you reach adulthood, this enterprise will be left to you to manage."

"Ahhhhhh!?!"

I don't even know! I haven't even read my parents' wills, and the one who read this should be my sister, I couldn't even read kanji at that time.

"You know, you two, there's no way you're going to manage this place. Let me put it this way, maybe your uncle doesn't like to talk, but he is a very respectable man, and he absolutely cannot do anything to your parents' business, it is absolutely going to be handed over to you."

"Don't don't don't... Uncle Lin, I'll leave this to you guys to take care of, we, we can't take care of it at all ah."

"Yes, we'll definitely continue to take care of it, but what about after, what about after we can't manage it? What are you going to do? Can you learn the complexities of managerial economics and all that before we can't manage?"

"........"

I don't know, I really don't know, I can't even imagine my sister and I managing a company that we don't even know well. I don't even know what qualities a manager is supposed to have.

I, I'm inherently unable, to be a manager.

"Then, your marriage to Lin Yiran is the last option."

Uncle Lin looked at me, put down the wine glass again, crossed his fingers and placed them on his jaw, calmly, and came to a conclusion.

Chapter 79 about my warm and soft feelings.

What is this thing called marriage, and what is this supposed to be for different people? In the past, in the primitive man, this kind of thing did not exist, marriage was a culture, a symbol of civilization, and it was because of this relationship between a man and a woman after mankind had civilization and culture.

This relationship, which also made mankind out of the relationship between a man and a woman for the sake of reproduction, was born, and this relationship meant that mankind had a simple emotion called love.

However, for the increasingly developing human beings, such things as marriage and love are gradually no longer believed in, once humans believed in gods, but now humans no longer have respect for nature. In the beginning, mankind may have believed that such things as marriage was decided by the gods, and that it was an unbreakable vow made under the gods. However, the gods had to retreat in the face of profit.

At that time, mankind began to treat such things as marriage as an item of trade.

Between kingdoms, between powers, and even before families and households, marriage, was a tool of trade.

In the present words, Uncle Lin and I, we were sitting at the negotiation table with the table with the unremoved utensils and the snow-white tablecloth with the chips on top of it, a young girl who had gone to the bathroom and didn't return.

"That... Uncle Lin, I don't quite understand, why, does that mean I'm going to be with Lin Yiran?"

I swallowed hard and asked. In my brain, I thought of several answers to the question, but I didn't find each one convincing. As an adult and a successful man, Uncle Lin had convinced people eleven thousand times better than me, and the reasons he convinced me, I guess, were unexpected.

Uncle Lin sighed and moved his body, as if he was disappointed in me, and said, "Because, Lin Yiran, himself, was cultivated as an heir."

"Ah..."

This makes me a little unhappy, why is it that the heir is trained by Lin Yi yet not me and my sister? To be reasonable, the founders of this company are my parents, and you, Uncle Lin, were just one of the founders before, even if you want to cultivate the family's industry, the beneficiaries should be me and my sister.

"En, but you don't have to worry, I don't have any thoughts of seeking profit. Your father is a good man, your Qin family has a deep affection for me, my family was very poor when I was young, I went to university at that time, but I didn't have money to study, I was all ready to go to the south to work, it was your father, my high school counterpart, the Qin family paid to put me through university, that is to say, every achievement I have now is the help of your grandfather, your father. "

Uncle Lin put down his glass of wine, and I noticed that he would never raise his glass of wine or food or show a hint of disrespect whenever the occasion mentioned my father. Perhaps, to him, my father, to him, was a very thankful person.

"Lin Yiran as the heir, this is the result of your father's and my discussion."

Uncle Lin looked into my eyes, then, pointed in the direction Lin Yiran had gone. Lin Yiran, the child, was raised as an heir, she has no such thing as childhood, when you were playing with her, she was looking at a pile of numbers and worrying, when you were worrying about what you wanted for your next toy, she was looking at the Financial Times and worrying. When she first arrived in the United States, the language barrier and the lack of familiarity with life, she did her schooling on her own, through gritted teeth. Lin Yiran didn't have a single friend since she was a child, she didn't have a single day where she decided how to live on her own, everything she did was just a bunch of broken numbers and data, everything she did was analyze where a bunch of numbers were going."

Uncle Lin's face flushed with excitement, it wasn't drunk, but, rather, the attitude a father should have, I guess. No matter what, Lin Yiran is also his daughter. I close my eyes, and in my brain, a young girl, spreading out a newspaper that's bigger than she is, amidst a pile of letters, frowns and considers questions that shouldn't be on her mind at all.

What was Lin Yiran, her childhood, all about?

I still have my sister, and though I am unfortunate, Lin Yiran, as a child, was used as a tool to shape it.

How much pain and tears are hidden in her smile now? She was giving her all for our family business. Never having a childhood of her own, she was forced to leave her home country and endure loneliness and isolation in a foreign land, accompanied by unreadable numbers and a book on management in the late night light.

I sighed and ruffled my hair hard, it was ridiculous, who was I to be angry? I can't believe I'm going to get angry about something I don't even understand, but simply put, isn't the one thing I'm angry about because I can't get something for nothing? Aren't I just worried that this business won't come into my hands? Who am I to be angry? What have I done to deserve to be angry? The one who should be angry, the one who should be furious, the one who should hate me, should be, Lin Yiran.

She gave her all, but, she got nothing.

However, her smile in front of me was so happy.

"Yiran she, really is a poor girl. As a father, I'm really, really sorry for her."

Uncle Lin didn't speak for a long time, maybe he was calming himself down, after a silence, he opened his mouth, with heartache in his eyes, and continued, "Your parents understand this, so, they didn't let you learn this. Yiran she has nothing, she hasn't gotten anything since she was a child, the only thing that has ever existed around her is you, Qin Feng."

I didn't speak.

"The only thing that has ever existed around her, Yatran, is you. She liked you, and I've seen Yiran cry secretly, but I also saw that Yiran was looking at your picture and crying. Have you ever seen the way you're crying while flipping through that book of management? She is really very fond of you, and this may be a financially or politically unfree marriage for you, but for Lin Yiran, this is what has motivated her to work hard until now. Qin Feng, I know that you may have the spirit of resistance right now, but, I also hope that you can give, Yiran, a return."

Uncle Lin looked at me, solemnly, and lowered his head.

"Qin Feng, I'm not taking your elders as your elders now, but now we're negotiating on equal footing. I hope, I hope, that you will be able to, give Yiran a happiness. This reward, only you can give, only you can."

"Lin Yiran was raised as an heir, she's fully capable of managing a business, she only needs a few years of exercise, she's fully capable of taking on the responsibility, as long as you marry Lin Yiran, Lin Yiran loves you, she'll never do anything to hurt you, and you and Qin Yun can have your own lives."

The best of both worlds, this was really, a very perfect approach. Originally, there was a very obvious, very fatal problem with this approach, and that was, what if Lin Yiran didn't like the marriage, she was the one in charge of the initiative. However, this was solved very perfectly. Lin Yiran likes me, she will not seek her own personal gain, she will act solely in my interest. Lin Yiran is also not ugly, Lin Yiran also has a perfect body, no bad habits, perfect like Venus the goddess of beauty. For my sister and I, there will be no change in our lives, and I will still have a perfect wife and a perfect family in the future.

It was perfect, seamless.

But why do I feel, so, so not real and happy about it?

What am I supposed to do at this point? Should I tell Uncle Lin to raise his head quickly? I don't know, I think, compared to something like this, I should, well, think about what's next.

Lin Yiran she is, really, pitiful.

Did I say that such a thing as a human favor is something that is very interesting to play with.

Lin Yiran, gave me a huge human favor. No, not just to me, she gave a huge favor to all the people related to me. She was a great gift sent to me, just let her be in front of me and I could continue to live the life I wanted and enjoy Lin Yiran's care, and I would just have to marry Lin Yiran and take care of her by her side just like I took care of my sister, which changed nothing for me but solved very important problems.

Is this all, the elders' routine?

Perfect design.

I should, at this time, thank Lin Yiran, for leaving me for ten years, suffering countless hardships, shedding countless tears, and such loyal love deserves to be rewarded. If this isn't rewarded, then who would still believe in justice and love?
