Chapter 1364. Father and Son 2
When Mu Yuchen said that, warmth flowed through Mu Tangchuan’s heart. He took a deep breath, and then silently lowered his head to take a sip of tea…
Mu Yuchen could keenly catch that his father’s hand tightened on the teacup while Mu Tangchuan was feeling quite emotional. He thought about it, then suddenly looked at Mu Tangchuan and said, “Father, do you feel like I haven’t carried out my duties as a son?”
“No, you have done very well.”
When Mu Yuchen said that, Mu Tangchuan refuted him and his meaningful gaze was loving. “You have your own perspectives. Your mother and I can’t help you. All we can do is just silently bear things and support you. All these years, I’ve put too much time into the political scene that I’ve neglected my family. It was only when your grandmother passed away, and when I saw your aging grandfather that it hit me. Some things that you think are important might not be so important, after all. When it comes to this, your mother’s much more enlightened than I am. I’ll have to learn from her.”
Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchen chuckled. “Does that mean that you’re not planning to keep challenging yourself now? It’s actually not hard to neglect neither one. Father, you don’t have to stop your dreams because of that. Right now, it should be time for you to rise in your career. As long as you don’t lose heart in many things, we’ll support you.”
“You’re starting to talk more and more like your mother now. I remember that a few years ago when I was in the phase of just getting promoted, your mother was still just a low-level prosecutor. She didn’t forget to urge me from time to time. Sometimes, when I had to go to the Disciplinary Inspection Department, she would be far stricter with my investigations than the other departments. I was especially afraid of her then, always thinking of how to curry her favor. Otherwise, I’d worry that she would make life hard for me.”
When speaking about him and his wife, there was a gentle smile on Mu Tangchuan’s face.
“Both your love has always been one that I admire. I think that I’m far luckier than other people to have such loving parents.”
Yes, he was far luckier than other people. Take his woman sleeping upstairs alone for example. When he recalled her childhood, he felt that he had been a thousand times luckier than her. As he thought about this, he could not help but feel his heart hurt a little.
