My Secretary is a Little Sweet

Chapter 310: Deep Love of Father’s

He walked across the isolated farm field with Shangguan Ning on his back. It felt as if they were the only two people left in the entire world.

Jing Yichen shook his head slightly and said in an emotion laden voice, “No, Ning, I am very grateful to him. I had assumed that he was very strict and always dissatisfied and kept giving me stress although I did everything better than most people. I complained at that time and assumed that he was not a loving father at all.”

When he thought back to the tough training, Jing Yichen found that everything was worth the while.

He said in a low voice, “But now I understand what he was thinking. If he had not given me such strict training then and cultivated me in every possible way, I couldn’t have possibly become what I am today. I might have lost my life in all kinds of battles. He did all for my sake and he acted like a tough father for my sake.”

“Everyone dreams about being in the position which I am in today, but I need to undertake enormous responsibilities. There are numerous people who plan to defeat Family Jing every single day and to take away the properties of Family Jing. People can die for money, just like birds can die for food. Many people have used all possible methods to bring Family Jing down and if I am not capable enough, I would not be able to keep what I own. So I needed to go through all the hardships in the past, because they are extremely useful now.”

Shangguan Ning knew pretty well the burden on Jing Yichen’s shoulders. She also knew that although Jing Yichen looked powerful, yet he had to make lots of efforts to be where he is today. He almost never rested and worked intensively for days in a row.

But she never expected that Jing Yichen could change so fast. He had had a very bad relationship with Jing Zhongxiu before and now he was defending him.

She smiled and said, “If dad ever gets to know that you speak so highly of him, he is definitely going to be very happy.”

Shangguan Ning was the happiest person to see father and son getting on so well with each other. She had always tried to bring them closer.

She knew that Jing Zhongxiu cared about Jing Yichen more than anyone else did and that he just didn’t say it out loud. Jing Yichen was cold to his father, yet he had been respecting him deep inside his bones all the time. They were estranged before, because Zhang Rong and Jing Yiran had been trying to sabotage their relationship.

Jing Yichen smiled and said, “I always speak highly of him, but not in the aspect of family relationships. He is a qualified businessman, and an excellent leader. But he is not so good at dealing with family relationships. So far, the relationship between the two of you is probably the best. You are getting on so well with each other that I almost get jealous.”

“That is different, I am a girl, and I am his daughter-in-law. Of course he won’t treat me as strictly as he treats you.”

“Yes. You made me realise that father treats me strictly because he cares about me and loves me. He has never demanded that Jing Yiran should do anything and he never scolds him either, because he never wanted Jing Yiran to take over the family, from the beginning and had already decided to let me take over Family Jing.

Previously, people in the family said that father favored me, but I didn’t believe them. But now, I understand that he never cared about Jing Yiran. He only had one demand from me, namely to let Jing Yiran live like peacefully. After all, he is also his son and if he can’t give him the real fatherly love, he should at least make sure he can live a happy and stable life.”

Shangguan Ning nodded and said softly, “Yes, father always regards you as the heir and that makes you so excellent. I just feel concerned for you to have gone through such tough things and when you did, I wasn’t there with you. That makes me feel bad.”

“Silly girl, even if you had been with me, it would not have changed anything. I was trained in an isolated area and sometimes I was not allowed to talk with anyone for one to two months. After each training, I felt refreshed and the accomplishments inspired me a great deal. That was what kept me going on. When we have a son in the future, I am afraid that he might need to go through this kind of tough training as well and you mustn’t feel concerned for him.”

That was impossible! Shangguan Ning was feeling bad about Jing Yichen’s past and if their son had to go through the hell like training, she was definitely going to get very concerned as well.

She started to plead for their son who was yet to be born. “Trainings are necessary, but could you not tire him out? I remember you talking about surviving in the deserts. Can our son skip that?”

Jing Yichen felt a bit helpless. Survival in the desert was compulsory, and there were other things like rainforests survival, deserted isles survival etc. This kind of survival training was compulsory every year, because these helped to enhance the surviving ability and willpower and helped a man to stay calm in all kinds of situations.

“Well, trainings can’t be skipped. But I will be with him all the time, you don’t need to worry at all. But baby, the thing is, we need to have a son first!”

Shangguan Ning burst into laughter. “Exactly, if we have a daughter, then she can skip all the trainings!”

Jing Yichen also smiled. “Then let’s work hard tonight. Mu Qing says that I am totally fine and if you still can not pregnant after I work so diligently, then I will demolish his hospital.”

The couple talked and laughed all the way back to the villa. Aunt Fu had already got the dinner ready and waited for them.

She kept looking out of the villa all the time, fearing that they would get lost. What she didn’t know was that Jing Yichen had a brain that remembered everything and that they were definitely not going to get lost, because he could recall every twist and winding road leading upto here.

Shangguan Ning and Jing Yichen were both a bit hungry after the fun in the afternoon. Jing Yichen, who was particular about food, still ate a lot at dinner, making Aunt Fu very happy.

After dinner, Shangguan Ning went back to the bedroom for a shower. Jing Yichen didn’t have time to get changed before heading back to the study to deal with matters.

Shangguan Ning knew that he was dealing with Tang Yun’s matters, because she was involved in too many conspiracies and plans, making Jing Yichen become more and more cautious.

She changed into pajamas and read the news in the bed when Zhao Anan called her.

But before she was able to say anything, she could hear a screaming sound from the other side of the phone.
