Chapter 237 I dream about her every night
The meeting room was silent; everyone held their breath, waiting for Tan Haoyu's next instructions.
Tan Haoyu suddenly spoke, his voice deep and powerful: "Starting tomorrow, this project will be handed over to Jiang Tao, and you will be his deputy."
The project manager was stunned; he couldn't believe his ears.
Tan Haoyu, however, had already turned to another document and continued, "No matter what method you use, you must secure Lin Fei's project. The profit margin can be reduced by 0.05 percentage points."
He spoke very quickly, but his secretaries clearly wrote down every single word.
After the meeting ended, Tan Haoyu turned and left the conference room.
Yang Piaoliang and Liu Meili immediately followed.
Liu Meili quickly caught up, her tone tinged with doubt: "President Tan, is Jiang Tao really capable of handling the new job?"
Tan Haoyu stopped and glanced back at her, his eyes filled with a hint of coldness: "Otherwise, do you think I would let him try? Only by trying will we know."
Yang Piaoliang and Liu Meili exchanged a glance and said nothing more.
Tan Haoyu waved his hand, signaling them to stop following him.
He left with a resolute back view and strode towards the elevator.
Tan Haoyu pushed open the office door and gently closed it. He pulled out a chair and sat down, lightly touching his brow where a slight pain was felt.
In my mind, a figure that was both clear and blurry emerged.
It has been three years. He thinks about her every day and dreams about her every night, but her image is becoming more and more blurry.
"Why... can't I even remember what she looks like anymore?" he murmured, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
On the desk, an exquisitely framed photo sits quietly.
In the photo, Tan Haoyu is holding his daughter, Xiao Qingqing, with a small dog named Xiao Xiaohua crouching beside them. The only woman he loves is not in the photo.
Xiao Qingqing is his source of joy; he can't help but smile whenever he sees her.
"We should go see her." Tan Haoyu stood up, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. "Otherwise, she'll get angry again."
Tan Haoyu arrived at a park not far from the company. Sunlight shone on the lawn, and the air was filled with the fragrance of grass.
He saw Xiao Qingqing sitting on a bench in the distance, staring blankly ahead, as if she was thinking about something.
He quietly walked over and gently pinched Xiao Qingqing's cheek: "Little one, what are you looking at?"
Little Qingqing snapped out of her daze, her eyes sparkling: "Daddy, I'm looking at Big Qingqing."
Tan Haoyu was taken aback: "Da Qingqing?"
Little Qingqing nodded seriously: "Yes, Big Qingqing is just as beautiful as me."
Tan Haoyu followed her gaze but saw nothing. He frowned slightly, a sense of confusion rising within him.
"Why do I always think of Zhu Ziqing when I see a simple heart-shaped band-aid and hear Xiao Qingqing's childish words?" He wondered to himself, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
"Daddy, I'm hungry." Little Qingqing suddenly pouted, her eyes looking pitiful.
Tan Haoyu smiled slightly: "What would you like to eat?"
"Strawberries and chocolate!" Xiao Qingqing's eyes lit up, her tone filled with anticipation.
Tan Haoyu teased her deliberately, "Do you want money, or strawberries?"
Xiao Qingqing blinked, thought seriously for a moment, and suddenly looked up: "I want them all!"
Tan Haoyu shook his head: "No, you can only choose one."
Little Qingqing pouted, looking aggrieved, and buried her face in Tan Haoyu's arms: "I want money, and I want to eat strawberries too!"
Seeing her aggrieved expression, Tan Haoyu couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, you can have it all." He coaxed her softly, his eyes full of doting affection.
Xiao Qingqing suddenly looked up and kissed Tan Haoyu's cheek: "Daddy, a kiss costs a thousand yuan."
Tan Haoyu picked her up and gently kissed her face several times: "What about Daddy's kisses? How much should I pay for them?"
Little Qingqing counted on her fingers for a long time but still couldn't count them all: "Daddy, we have so many secret promises, like kisses, pinching cheeks..."
Tan Haoyu smiled slightly: "Then you calculate how much money Dad owes you?"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Qingqing came to a conclusion: "Dad owes me ten hundred!"
Tan Haoyu laughed heartily and ruffled her hair: "Okay, Dad owes you ten hundred."
Tan Haoyu held Xiao Qingqing in one arm and picked up Xiao Xiaohua beside him with the other, preparing to go home.
"Daddy, there's also the ten hundred for Little Flower," Xiao Qingqing reminded him.
Tan Haoyu smiled and nodded: "Okay, whatever Xiao Qingqing says goes."
The men and nanny following behind them were also overjoyed to see the father and daughter. They rarely saw Tan Haoyu so happy.
The Tan family's most treasured child is their youngest daughter, Tan Le'er, also known as Xiao Qingqing, followed by their Pomeranian, Xiao Hua. They are considered Tan Haoyu's "daughters."
The whole family doted on Xiao Qingqing and Xiao Hua, and no one dared to mess with them.
Three years after Zhu Ziqing's incident, Tan Haoyu replaced all the staff at Jiayuan, including the maids and nannies who had worked for the Tan family for decades.
He personally selected the nanny to take care of Xiao Qingqing and arranged for his former subordinates from the United States to protect her, ensuring that she was surrounded by the people she trusted most.
"I absolutely cannot let anyone hurt her." This was his only bottom line.
Xiao Qingqing is already three years and a few months old. When she turned three, Tan Haoyu specially hired the best Taekwondo coach to come to their home to teach her.
Every day after get off work, he would spend an hour practicing Taekwondo with Xiao Qingqing, patiently accompanying her as she grew up.
"When her mother comes back, I want to tell her everything about my daughter's growth," Tan Haoyu thought to himself. "The child needs her mother back by her side."
That day, Xiao Qingqing changed into her white taekwondo uniform and stood in the training room with great flair.
Tan Haoyu stood to the side, his eyes full of tenderness: "Le'er, you did very well. Dad believes you can do even better."
When Xiao Qingqing heard the praise, her eyes lit up instantly, and she became even more focused, showing the spirit of a little female warrior.
"Dad, look at this!" she shouted, her every move brimming with power.
Tan Haoyu smiled and nodded: "Le'er is the best!"
After finishing the training, the young male coach said goodbye to Tan Haoyu and Xiao Qingqing.
"Le'er, Uncle is leaving now. See you next time." The coach squatted down and ruffled Xiao Qingqing's hair.
Little Qingqing waved politely to him: "Goodbye, Uncle, Le'er will miss you!"
The coach was amused by her cuteness and burst into laughter, waving in response: "Keep it up, Le'er!"
Watching the coach leave, Xiao Qingqing turned to look at Tan Haoyu, her eyes filled with a hint of reluctance.
Tan Haoyu checked the time and realized that it was already past Xiao Qingqing's mealtime.
"Le'er, are you hungry?" he asked softly.
Little Qingqing nodded, pouting, "Daddy, Le'er is hungry."
Tan Haoyu picked her up and gently patted her back: "Okay, Daddy will take you to eat something delicious."
Xiao Qingqing leaned against Tan Haoyu's chest, a hint of expectation in her eyes.
