Chapter 1411: Lou Ziling’s self-esteem

Translator: 549690339

Lou Ziling followed Lou Mingyang to sign the contract at Jingsheng enterprise.

Lou Mingyang went to the company excitedly and began to arrange the next strategic deployment to expand the production scale.

Lou Ziling went home alone. He looked at the contract in front of him and sat there for the whole night.

He felt a sense of shame that he had never felt before.

He was humiliated for himself.

He was a man, and he did not lack wisdom and ability. Why couldn’t he use his own efforts to exchange for the glory of the family?

Why would he make use of a 14-year-old girl?

No, this was not the life he wanted!

He didn’t want to rely on Jing Xi to get the Jing family’s resources. He didn’t want to live the rest of his life as a useless person.

Lou Mingyang had been busy the whole night. When he got home in the morning, he found his son sitting in the study with bloodshot eyes.

“You didn’t sleep the whole night?” he was a little surprised.

Lou Ziling did not say anything, but his appearance was obvious. He had not changed out of the suit he wore to see Jing Rui the day before, and his clothes were wrinkled because he had been sitting for a long time.

“Why aren’t you sleeping? Your mom and sister didn’t even care about you!”

Lou Mingyang had wronged his wife and daughter. They didn’t know that Lou Ziling had returned home. They thought that he had gone to the company with Lou Mingyang!

Although Lou Mingyang had been busy the whole night, he was in good spirits because of the huge order. He patted his son’s shoulder and said,””You’ve been staring at the contract all night, right? It’s all thanks to you, otherwise the Jing family wouldn’t have signed the contract with us so quickly. You must have done well in front of Jing Xi and touched the little girl. ”

“Don’t just sit here. Go take a shower and change your clothes. After breakfast, go to the horse track and continue to teach the little girl how to ride a horse. We can’t slack off just because we got an order!”

“Dad, I’m not going.”

Lou Ziling’s voice was a little hoarse, but it was firm.

Lou Mingyang was stunned,”why not?” Did the little girl give you a hard time? Did I make you angry?”

Lou Ziling shook her head.”No. She’s fine.”

Not only did she not make him angry, but she also praised him from the bottom of her heart and called him teacher.

Instead, he was the one reprimanding her.

“She’s fine, why aren’t you going? I’m just teaching her how to ride a horse. Didn’t you win a championship in an equestrian competition when you were overseas? The coach that Jing Yichen hired for her is also very good. I heard that he has won many Championships. If you don’t go, you will lose all the opportunities!”

Lou Mingyang was a little anxious. He didn’t know what his son was up to. He had been with Jing Xi for so long. Why did he suddenly give up?

He had met Jing Xi and talked to her before. She was an easy girl to get along with.

His son was so cold and quiet that even he, as his father, couldn’t stand it sometimes. But Jing Xi had praised him in front of Jing Yichen several times. This showed that the little girl was really a good person!

“Ziling, now is not the time for you to be stubborn. This is a rare opportunity and we must seize it. As long as we can build a long-term cooperation with family Jing and have trust with them, it will be easy for us to cooperate with other people in the future. You’ll be late if you don’t leave now. You can’t let the young lady wait for you!”

“I’m not going. Tell the Jing family that I won’t go there again. I’ll stop protecting Jing Xi and I won’t teach her how to ride anymore.”

Lou Ziling’s expression was cold and calm. She was not joking at all.

No matter how good Lou Mingyang’s temper was, he was going crazy because of his son!

He was not raising a son, he was raising an ancestor! He was even more arrogant than the Emperor. Others couldn’t get close to Jing Xi even after using all kinds of means, but he was even disdainful!

He seriously suspected that he had taught his son the wrong way in the past!

Lou Mingyang was so angry that he wanted to beat his son up, but he couldn’t bear to do it. He could only say angrily,”If you don’t want to go, you have to give me a reason, right? Do you think it’s easy for me to get you a chance to protect Jing Xi? The Jing family was short of bodyguards? City A is lacking a horse-riding coach?”

Lou Ziling was silent for a long time before she said,””I don’t want to use her.”

Use?

Lou Mingyang was so angry with his son that he fell backwards!

“Just listen to what you’re saying! When have we ever used Jing Xi? We’re competing fair and square! It’s Jing Yichen’s order to protect Jing Xi …”

Lou Ziling interrupted her father and said coldly,””That’s not glorious either! I don’t need to rely on an underaged girl to seek benefits. Didn’t you teach me before to rely on myself for everything? Without Jing Xi, I can still get the support of the Jing family and make the company develop well!”

Lou Mingyang’s voice also gradually became cold and even a little sharp.””Right! Of course you can do it! However, that will take a long time. Jing Xi is the most effective and fastest shortcut to success! Why not take the shortcut? Did we hurt Jing Xi? There isn’t any!”

“It’s better not to take such a shortcut!”

“Ziling, you have too much self-esteem! There’s no need for that at this stage!”

“No, if I don’t have any self-esteem, it can only mean that your education is a failure!”

Lou Mingyang was so angry that he almost died. Should he hate himself for teaching his son too much? He had taught his son to have self-respect and not to belittle himself, but accompanying Jing Xi would not lower his status!

He even wanted to be a bodyguard himself, but Jing Yichen would never agree to it.

“She’s just a little girl, innocent and not scheming. You’re just playing with her. Is that hard?”

“It’s precisely because she’s a little girl that I can’t take advantage of her naivety!”

Lou Ziling had thought about it for the whole night and made up her mind. Her stance was firm and clear.

“Dad, let me try. If I don’t try, how do you know that I can’t expand the family? Family Jing didn’t rely on marriage or women to develop. If I work hard on my own, the progress might be slower, but our Foundation will be more stable and we will have more confidence! You’ve taught me so much, so you have to let me put it into practice!”

Lou Mingyang was stunned.

He had never thought that this would be the result.

He looked at his tall and handsome son, at his determined and confident appearance, and an unparalleled pride slowly welled up in the depths of his heart.

Yes, his son was right. If he did not have such a strong self-esteem and was willing to please a little girl, it could only prove that the education he had given his son for twenty-one years was a failure!

The study room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

Lou Mingyang let out a long sigh of relief.”Alright, I won’t go! I’ll explain to Jing Yichen, you go ahead! Dad is old, he’s more than capable of preserving, but he’s far from as progressive as you! Ziling, our Lou family will be relying on you in the future!”
