Beautiful mayor's wife

"Ah?" Liu Siqi's body shook, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly calmed down: "Dad, why did you say that?"

Seeing the change in Liu Siqi's expression, Liu Haitao frowned even deeper: "Is what I said true?"

"I..." Liu Siqi was about to speak when she was interrupted by Liu Haitao.

"Siqi, I am your father, the person who loves you the most in this world, I hope you will not lie to me." Liu Haitao said slowly.

Liu Siqi bit her lip and said softly, "Dad, can I not answer your question?"

"No, you must answer me." Liu Haitao said without negotiating.

Liu Siqi frowned and did not speak.

"Siqi, I'm your father, what can't you tell me?" Liu Haitao said in a deep voice.

"I... I'm afraid that if I say it, you will get angry." Liu Siqi whispered.

"Tell me, Dad promises not to get angry." Liu Haitao promised.

Liu Siqi raised her head and looked at Liu Haitao: "Dad, are you really not angry? No matter what I say, you are not angry?"

Liu Haitao reached out and touched Liu Siqi's head: "You are my only daughter, and also the spiritual pillar of my life in this world. I work hard every day, all for you, and my father said without any selfishness, I can do anything for you."

"Father." Liu Siqi stretched out her arms to hug Liu Haitao, and said with a choked voice, "It is the greatest blessing in my life to have you as a good father."

"Silly girl, it is also my blessing that Dad has such a well-behaved and beautiful daughter like you." Liu Haitao showed a loving smile on his face.

Liu Siqi let go of Liu Haitao, sat up straight, and took a light breath: "Father, you guessed right, I really like big brother."

After listening to Liu Siqi's words, Liu Haitao's face suddenly darkened.

Seeing Liu Haitao's face change, Liu Siqi suddenly became nervous: "Dad, you said just now that you are not angry."

Liu Haitao shook his head: "I'm not angry...it's just... Siqi, you and Ma Xiaoyao are too different in status, it's impossible for you to be together."

"Dad, what age is this? The idea of ​​being in the right family has long been unimportant. Big Brother is a nice guy, so I just like him." Liu Siqi said stubbornly.

Liu Haitao's face twitched a few times: "Okay, let's not talk about the identity gap between you and Ma Xiaoyao, let's just talk about your age gap. Ma Xiaoyao is almost 30 years old this year, and you are only 14 years old. The difference in age between you is almost one." Bei, to put it bluntly, Ma Xiaoyao can be your uncle, with such a big age gap, how can you be together?"

Liu Siqi curled her lips: "Isn't there a difference of more than ten years? When grandpa and grandma got married, there was still a difference of more than 20 years. Aren't they still happy after marriage? So, the age gap is not a problem at all." Liu Siqi's Grandpa was a soldier who participated in the War of Resistance. After the peaceful liberation, Liu Siqi’s grandfather was almost 50 years old. He was still a bachelor at that time. Later, by chance, Liu Siqi’s grandfather met a female nurse. The nurse fell in love with Liu Siqi's grandfather. The female nurse was only 20 years old at the time, more than 20 years younger than Liu Siqi's grandfather. Became a model of marriage at the time.

"You...You girl, why did you pull out your grandpa and grandma..." Liu Haitao said angrily.

"What I'm talking about, the example of grandpa and grandma has already proved that the age gap is not a problem at all." Liu Siqi said firmly.

"You...you are really going to piss me off..." Liu Siqi moved grandpa and grandma out, leaving Liu Haitao no way to argue.

Liu Siqi pursed her lips: "Dad, you promised not to get angry just now."

"You..." Liu Haitao was suddenly speechless with anger.

At this time, Liu Siqi came over and gently hugged Liu Haitao's arm: "Dad, big brother is such a nice person, why don't you agree with me being with him?"

"Oh..." Liu Haitao sighed: "Siqi, you are still young, and you don't understand some things at all. I admit that Ma Xiaoyao is a good young man, courageous and capable, but his family is too bad, and his social status is too low. It’s not high, I’m from two worlds with you, you…”

"Dad, I find that you are becoming more and more snobbish now. You were not like this before." Liu Siqi frowned: "Didn't you also be very poor back then? You also struggled slowly to achieve what you are today. Big Brother's current achievements are low, but he is still young, and he will definitely stand out in the future."

Liu Haitao shook his head with a wry smile: "Siqi, you think things too simply. Dad can achieve what he is today. Apart from his own hard work, it is more due to the help of your grandfather and his comrades in arms. Without their help, I would be a It is absolutely impossible to have today's status, so if a person wants to succeed, he cannot rely on his own efforts alone, but also needs the help of noble people." Liu Haitao has a deep understanding of the status quo of society over the years, and now this The society is where the weak prey on the strong. If you have no ability and no background, you will only be bullied by the strong, and you will never be able to stand up.

"Dad, you can be the nobleman of big brother. If you help, big brother will definitely become famous." Liu Siqi laughed.

Liu Haitao was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head: "Ma Xiaoyao is in the officialdom, and I am in the shopping malls, which is not in the same field at all. How can I help him?"

"Don't you know a lot of high-ranking officials? Go talk to those high-ranking officials and let them promote your eldest brother." Liu Siqi was quite thoughtful.

Liu Haitao smiled: "Siqi, the rules of the officialdom are different from the rules of the business world. For example, if I appreciate a young man, I can directly make him a manager, but not in the officialdom. People in the officialdom generally look at their qualifications or achievements, and they have no qualifications." It is absolutely impossible to be promoted because of political achievements, and Ma Xiaoyao now wants seniority without seniority, and political achievements without political achievements, so he cannot be promoted at all. Besides, as a businessman, it is taboo for me to ask about official affairs."

"Huh? It's so complicated in the officialdom." Liu Siqi frowned.

"The officialdom will only be more complicated than you imagined." Liu Haitao said.

Liu Siqi pondered for a while, and then smiled again: "Dad, since you can't get involved in the officialdom, why don't you just let big brother play in the shopping mall? At that time, you can help big brother without any scruples." Bar?"

"What do you mean?" Liu Haitao didn't understand for a while.

"Let big brother leave the officialdom and come to the mall. It's better that you find a job for big brother in the hotel. Isn't that all right?" Liu Siqi laughed.

Liu Haitao really didn't know what to say.

"Dad? Why don't you speak?" Liu Siqi asked suspiciously.

Liu Haitao licked his dry lips: "Siqi, are you sure Ma Xiaoyao will leave the officialdom and come to the mall?"

"Of course, people go to higher places. Since the officialdom is so difficult, I come to the mall. With the help of a big businessman like you, my brother must be doing well in the mall." Liu Siqi laughed.

"Siqi, I didn't pour cold water on you, Ma Xiaoyao probably won't leave the officialdom." Liu Haitao said lightly.

"Why are you so sure that big brother will not leave the officialdom?" Liu Siqi didn't believe Liu Haitao's words at all.

Liu Haitao looked directly at Liu Siqi: "Siqi, although the officialdom is difficult, it is a place that men dream of. Although I don't have much contact with Ma Xiaoyao, I can tell that Ma Xiaoyao is a very ambitious person. The officialdom has a firm foothold, and now I will definitely not leave the officialdom easily."

"Isn't it possible to get ahead in the mall?" Liu Siqi asked rhetorically.

Liu Haitao shook his head: "The shopping mall is good, but it is far behind the officialdom. Siqi, you have to be clear about one thing. The status of an official is much higher than that of a businessman. Let me give you an example. Don't look at your father now I’m prosperous, and my social status seems to be quite high, if the government officials want to punish me, I’m going to go bankrupt within a few months.”

"No way." Liu Siqi's eyes widened immediately.

"Siqi, don't underestimate the ability of officials, it's too easy for them to punish a businessman." Liu Haitao said earnestly.

Liu Siqi blinked her big eyes: "Dad, are you thinking too much? You haven't done anything bad, why did those officials punish you? It doesn't make sense!"

"True?" Liu Haitao snorted coldly: "These days, the truth is in the hands of the powerful, and the rules they make are the truth." At this point, Liu Haitao paused: "Siqi, you know officials too well. Less, if they want to punish a person, they don't need too many reasons, as long as they don't like you and move their mouths casually, you can't eat it, so there has been a saying since ancient times that people don't treat officials well. Fighting, businessmen are also people, nothing more than people with better lives, so businessmen dare not offend officials. Similarly, if officials are willing to defend you, then your position in the mall will be much more stable. Over the years, I have been I tried my best to make friends with those high-ranking officials, kept entertaining guests, giving gifts, flattering, and the overall effect was not bad. Many high-ranking officials had a good impression of me, and under their protection, I got along much smoother in the mall."

Liu Siqi was stunned. What Liu Haitao said to her today completely broke her previous understanding.

"Siqi, this society is very complicated. What you usually see is just superficiality. When you grow up, you will definitely take over my business. At that time, you will really get in touch with all levels of society. Your If you are too soft-tempered, you will definitely suffer in the future, so from now on, I will try my best to sharpen your temper so that you can be independent, even if your father is gone, you can still live well..." Liu Haitao said earnestly.
