Chapter 30 — At the end of the week when I was fired, I made the 3.9 billion contract into waste paper

But now. It was in a wooden box in front of me. My father picked up the card.

“I didn't take it that day.”

“Dad keep it.”

He put the card down in front of me.

“It's been seven years.”

“There's always money in here.”

I looked at the card. My vision suddenly blurred.

“Why do you keep it?”

My father said:

“I think, if one day you really can't stand it anymore.”

“If one day I want to go back but am afraid to open my mouth.”

“At least I have something to tell you.”

“Home is still here.”

I bowed my head. Tears fell onto the back of my hand. This time I didn't turn away. Don't try to hide it either. My father did not say any words of comfort. He just quietly pushed the tissue box towards me. Very clumsy movements. But it was that clumsiness that made me even more unable to bear it. After a long time, I said in a hoarse voice:

“I'm home.”

Father's hand placed on the table trembled slightly. He didn't look at me. Just bowed his head and replied:

“It's good to be back.”

Outside the office door, Mom didn't know when she had been standing there. She turned away to wipe her tears. Tham Nghien stood behind her, rarely teasing. That afternoon, my father rested according to the doctor's orders. But before leaving the office, he called me back.

“Ninning.”

I turned my head. He took out a thick file from the drawer and placed it on the table. Black file cover. On it is the embossed mark of Thinh Ninh Capital. He looked at me. His eyes were both serious and calm.

“It's time for you to take over.”

The file my father gave me was very thick. Inside is not only a confirmation of shareholder rights, but also a list of key projects Thinh Ninh is preparing to implement in the next three years, the structure of the investment council, the voting rights of each group of shareholders and the partial transfer plan that Dad has prepared for a long time. I sat in his office all afternoon. Turn each page. Read each line. The more I read, the more silent I became. Because I realized, this was not a hasty decision after dad was hospitalized. He had prepared this many years ago. In the file there is also a page of handwritten notes. Father's handwriting is very hard.

"Nhuoc Ninh doesn't like being arranged."

"Then let her go far enough on her own."

"When it wants to come back, give it back."

I looked at that line for a long time. Then close the file. The next day. Thinh Ninh Capital held an internal press conference. Not too ostentatious. But those present were all important figures in Giang Thanh's investment community. I wore a simple black suit, sitting next to Tham Nghien. Father did not attend. The doctor did not allow it. But before the meeting started, he called me. He didn't tell me what to say. Nor did it remind me of anyone to pay attention to. He just said:

"No need to stress."

"Dad, do you think I look like a stressed person?"

He was silent for two seconds.

"Not the same."

"So what are you worried about, Dad?"

"If you're worried, you're still worried."

I suddenly didn't know what to say. A long time later, I quietly replied:

"I know."

The meeting started at ten o'clock. Tham Nghien, representing the board of directors, announced: From today. I officially participate in Thinh Ninh Capital's investment decisions as a shareholder representative. At the same time, in charge of strategic risk control of the new project team. Many eyes looked towards me. Some people are cautious. Some people are curious. Some people still cannot hide their doubts. But no one dares anymore said I'm just a genius who was suddenly brought up. Because on the first day I joined the council, I pointed out the 600 million yuan risk in the Khang Duy deal. Because in the dispute with Hoa Nhac, I used evidence to force an entire financial company to bow and apologize. Because at Minh Khai, I had just finished handling the Hang Te crisis and exposed the line of internal intervention by outsiders. If a person only relies on family background. She can sit on a chair. But it is impossible to keep those who are not convinced silent. After Thinh Ninh's announcement, Phuong Minh Vien also sent an official announcement on behalf of Minh Khai. Minh Khai Capital appointed me as a partner in charge of independent risk control. My veto power is clearly stated in the project charter. Duong Thuy was also present. When he met my eyes, he gently raised his cup of tea. Consider it congratulations. I nodded in response. At that moment, I suddenly remembered the morning I was fired. Eight thirty on Saturday morning. A phone call. A cold announcement. Seven years of work negated in a few minutes. At that time, they thought I was someone who could be arbitrarily kicked out of the game. But in the end, it was they who were eliminated from the chess board. The same afternoon. Hoa Nhac posted the final announcement. This time, there is no more crookedness.
