Chapter 206 Xu Che's Worries
Chapter 206 Xu Che's Worries
Xu Che, as a legendary figure in the business world, always exudes a sense of majesty and order in his office. That evening, when the last ray of sunlight disappeared in the sky, he finally finished the work at hand, slowly raised his head, and his eyes fell on Secretary Li who was standing by the table and looked a little restrained.
"Secretary Li, how is Ling Feng doing recently? Is there anything I need to pay attention to?" Xu Che's voice was deep and powerful, and every word revealed unquestionable authority. His eyes showed both fatherly care and strict expectations for his son's growth.
Secretary Li's heart trembled slightly when he heard this. He knew very well how high Xu Che's expectations were for Xu Lingfeng, and he also understood the responsibility he was shouldering at the moment. He hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth: "Boss Xu, Master Lingfeng's recent state is indeed a little bit off. He is busier than before, but at the same time he seems unusually depressed, as if something is weighing on his mind..."
Xu Che's face suddenly became solemn when he heard this. He remembered that the last time Xu Lingfeng was so depressed was because of his emotional entanglement with Ouyang Mengmian.
Ouyang Mengmian, the smart, independent and somewhat mysterious girl, once filled Xu Lingfeng's world with color and also made his mood fluctuate like a roller coaster. In the end, the relationship between the two failed to come together for various reasons, leaving Xu Lingfeng with deep scars.
Xu Che knew Xu Lingfeng's character very well. Xu Lingfeng was always full of energy and courage. Apart from Ouyang Mengmian, he could hardly imagine any reason that could make his son so conflicted. He had an ominous premonition in his heart, and the last time Xu Lingfeng was so depressed involuntarily emerged in his mind.
"Go check what he's been busy with recently and why this happened." Xu Che's tone was an unquestionable command, and it also revealed his deep concern for his son. He knew that as a father, he had to support his son and be his strongest supporter no matter what difficulties he encountered.
Secretary Li took the order and started an intensive investigation. He used his own resources and connections to quickly grasp Xu Lingfeng's recent whereabouts. When he stood in front of Xu Che again and reported the results of the investigation, his tone was a little more solemn.
"Boss Xu, I found out. Master Ling Feng has been going to Area A frequently recently, and has been in and out of a place called 'Red Dust Bar' there many times. There, he seems to have had some contact with a woman, and the two have made plans to have dinner and chat many times. Although their behavior is not beyond the normal range, the woman's appearance is quite similar to... Miss Ouyang Mengmian."
Secretary Li paused and observed Xu Che's reaction carefully. He knew that this news was undoubtedly a huge shock to Xu Che. But as a professional secretary, he had to remain calm and objective and present the facts to his boss in full.
After hearing this, Xu Che was silent for a moment. He had mixed feelings in his heart, worrying that his son might fall into an emotional vortex again, and also having complex feelings about Ouyang Mengmian reappearing in their lives. He knew very well that he could not interfere with his son's emotional life, but as a father, how could he not worry about him?
He was surprised that Xu Lingfeng and Ouyang Mengmian met again, but also worried that this relationship would hurt his son again. He knew that although Ouyang Mengmian was excellent, her personality and experience meant that she was not an easy person to control.
In the past, when Ouyang Mengmian and her son were together almost every day, she did not develop any romance with her son. Now, many years have passed, and Xu Che still holds a pessimistic attitude towards the development of the relationship between the two. Therefore, after witnessing Xu Lingfeng's emotional injury, Xu Che almost dared not imagine his son experiencing such an injury again. He had no doubt that it would completely hit Xu Lingfeng's self-confidence and make him lose interest in everything around him again.
The most important thing is that his son is not young anymore - for a family with a fortune like theirs, the safest and most important thing is to reproduce and give birth to an heir as soon as possible.
"You did a good job, Secretary Li. You continue to follow up on this matter, but keep a low profile and don't alarm Ling Feng." After Xu Che pondered for a moment, he instructed Secretary Li, "At the same time, you should also pay attention to his emotional changes and behavior, and report any abnormalities to me in a timely manner."
Secretary Li responded softly and turned to leave the office, but unexpectedly was stopped by Xu Che with a serious face: "Send someone to keep an eye on Ouyang Mengmian as well..."
Secretary Li was not at all surprised by Xu Che's sudden order. He nodded calmly at Xu Che, and only when he saw that Xu Che had no other orders did he carefully close the office door, leaving Xu Che alone to face the silence in the room.
