After retiring at the age of sixty, Xiang Nan did not rest at home to take care of his old age, but continued to be active in his career.

In comparison, Cai Xiaoli is more Buddhist. She retired three years and seven years earlier than Xiang Nan, at the age of fifty-five.

After retiring, she had nothing to do, so she went to Cheng Ji's company, hoping to work part-time as an official. After all, she was used to being a leader in the company, and she was still a little used to it when she retired.

In order to make his mother happy, Cheng Ji asked her to take charge of the logistics work. She was said to be the manager of the logistics department, but in fact she was in charge of several cleaning ladies.

After Cai Xiaoli worked for a while, she really didn't get it right. Those aunts were not as obedient as the people in her workplace. If she dared to reprimand others, they would dare to quarrel with her.

Anyway, they also have a Yanjing registered permanent residence, and they come here to clean and clean just to earn some pocket money. There is no husband here, they have their own place to keep the husband, so they will not get used to Cai Xiaoli's problems.

So after Cai Xiaoli worked for a while, she felt it was really boring. So she resigned from her job with her daughter, and went to the park every day to dance square dances with a bunch of old ladies. Xiang Nandu laughed at her several times, saying that she had no pursuit in life.

She has become a square dancing aunt.

"If you think I'm not good at square dancing, then arrange a position for me in the company." Cai Xiaoli said, "I don't believe it. Su Meng can be the general manager of a real estate company, but I can't."

When Xiang Nan heard this, he stopped talking.

He has so many tricks up his sleeve in the company, how could he let her into the company? That would be inviting a wolf into the house.

…

In 2011, Cheng Ji’s Weibo was officially listed on Nasdaq in the United States.

On the first day of listing, the stock price soared rapidly. It was originally intended to issue 100 million shares and raise US$500 million. Unexpectedly, the stock price soared from US$5 to US$30, a six-fold increase.

This has also allowed Cheng Ji's net worth to rise to tens of billions of dollars. Not only is he at the top of China's richest list, but he is also ranked within 100 of the world's richest people.

However, the more successful her daughter's career becomes, the more Xiang Nan becomes worried. With so much money, what kind of man is worthy of her?

You must know that most men in the world cannot achieve what their daughter has achieved now.

And a man who can do this may not necessarily marry her. After all, it is much better to marry a silly white sweet girl with fair skin and beautiful appearance than to marry her.

However, he was worried, but he did not urge the marriage. After all, he himself had suffered from the urge to marry, so why should he impose this pressure on his daughter.

However, it was Cheng Ji who made his eyes shine. At the end of the year, he married a computer postdoc from Tsinghua University.

It turned out that the postdoctoral fellow was her senior. Although the young man came from an ordinary background, he was a very good person. He participated in the Olympic Mathematics and Informatics competitions many times in high school and achieved very good results.

After that, after being admitted to the Computer Science Department of Tsinghua University, I have been engaged in computer science research. The main research project is artificial intelligence, and I have achieved certain achievements.

Cheng Ji admired him when he was in college, so he took the initiative to pursue him. The two have been secretly in love for eight years.

Cai Xiaoli was a little dissatisfied with her daughter's choice.

The reason is that although the postdoctoral fellow is talented, his family conditions are too ordinary. He is neither a businessman nor an official, he is just an ordinary worker.

In comparison, theirs is a family of officials and businessmen, and her retirement benefits are at the departmental level. Not to mention Xiang Nan's status as the richest Chinese man.

For a family like theirs, even if you don't marry the son of a high-ranking official, you still have to marry a rich man with a similar net worth, which is considered a strong alliance. Marrying a postdoc with an average background is really a loss.

"Don't think that way. You should respect your daughter's opinion. After all, it's her who is having sex with others, not you. Her opinion is the most important." Xiang Nan advised, "Besides, it doesn't matter what the family background is. ?As long as you have good character, knowledge, culture, and ambition. I didn't have much money back then, but I have money now."

"Dad, what you said is so good." Cheng Ji said happily after hearing this.

"If he can really be half as capable as you, I won't worry about my daughter." Cai Xiaoli curled her lips and said.

Although Xiang Nan had nothing at that time, he was extremely talented. At the age of twenty-two, he was already a nationally famous poet and writer.

And my daughter’s partner is already twenty-eight years old, and he’s still doing very well.

"How many people are there in the world like my father? You asked me to use my father as a benchmark to find a partner. You didn't mean to make things difficult for me. You just don't want me to get married." Cheng Ji curled his lips and said.

She knew very well how powerful her father was. He was so talented and smart that nothing in the world could defeat him.

From a poor student with nothing to becoming the richest man in China, such talent is simply rare in the world. Where can she find someone exactly like him?

"Yes, I am the only one in the world, where do you want your daughter to find the second one?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "In my opinion, you'd better stop worrying so blindly.

Our daughter has been smart since she was a child, and she has never worried us about her studies. She is a person who knows what she should do. She must have made the decision to get married after thinking about it, so we should not try to persuade her anymore. .

Besides, the present is not the past, and there is no requirement to end it all. If your daughter is really unhappy, she can get a divorce. With her conditions, are you still worried that there will be no good young man? "

After hearing what he said, Cai Xiaoli nodded.

…

After Cheng Ji got married, he soon had his own child.

After Xiang Nan became a grandpa, he didn't hang out outside very often, and only occasionally went out for toothpaste rituals.

Time passes slowly, and relatives and friends gradually drift away from each other.

In 2012, Cheng Baoguo and Liu Lanzhi passed away one after another. In 2013, Chunming's mother also passed away. In 2025, Su Meng unfortunately passed away, and Chunming cried like a man in tears. In 2008, Chunming also passed away, making Xiang Nan sigh with emotion. Endless.

In 2029, Cai Xiaoli also suffered from a serious illness, treatment failed, and she eventually died.

Before she died, she held Xiang Nan's hand and was very reluctant to let go.

"Jianjun, the most correct choice in my life is to marry you. In fact, I know that I am not worthy of you." Cai Xiaoli said emotionally.

"Don't say that, how could you not be worthy of me?" Xiang Nan comforted her, "I have never regretted marrying you at all in my life."

"I know you are lying to me, but I am not angry. I am indeed not worthy of you." Cai Xiaoli shook her head and said, "I have no education, no talent, and I am not beautiful. If you can marry me, I am very satisfied. Already."

"Okay, why are you belittling yourself like this? I think you are really good." Xiang Nan comforted her.

"If I were really that good, you wouldn't mess around outside." Cai Xiaoli said with a bitter smile.

Xiang Nan was startled, his face suddenly turned pale, his back started to feel hot, and he was about to break out in cold sweat. He said in surprise, "You know everything?"

"I've always known it." Cai Xiaoli nodded, "When you were in the food factory, you hooked up with that Cui Weihong..."
