The dining table in front of me draws design inspiration from Italian postmodernist art works. It is simple and dignified, heavy and classic, revealing the characteristics of classical aesthetics everywhere, just like the man on the table master seat.

Yao Yi raised her head slightly, her eyes left the table and turned to the main seat.

There sat a business tycoon, Yao Qi, the president of Yao's Group.

At this time, Yao stood up wearing a KitonPOLO shirt, sitting like a general, with black hair but no oil, no wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were filled with the perseverance, calmness and vicissitudes that had only been through many years of storms, which looked very much like Yao Yi twenty years later.

For a moment, Yao Yi thought she was looking in the mirror.

While Yao Yi was staring at Yao Qi, Yao Qi was also examining him.

In Yao Qi's eyes, this young man wearing a hand-painted T-shirt, with a thin figure, agile eyes, passionate about life, and curious about everything is very similar to himself twenty years ago.

For a moment, Yao Qi thought he was looking in the mirror.

The father and son looked at each other in silence, as if they could transcend time.

After a long time, my father spoke, his voice was low, as if he was a lead cloud brewing in a storm.

"Yao Yi, you just said, are you going to drop out of school?"

If it were Yao Yi, she would have been timidly under the pressure of this powerful aura. However, Yao Yi, who was a human being in two lives and had great power, was no longer as afraid of her father's questioning as she once did.

"Yes, Dad, I'm going to drop out of school." Yao Yi smiled with a smile on his lips, his expression calm, like a mountain, withstood the pressure of the huge waves, and remained motionless.

"Yiyi, you..."

The mother, who was sitting on the right hand of her father, was angry and anxious, and was speechless for a moment.

"Mom, don't be anxious, don't be angry, I'm a carefully thought-out choice."

Yao Yi turned his head toward his mother and blinked playfully. Since he returned to this young body, his mentality seemed to have become younger. This is a good thing. He can experience the feeling of youth again, but countless people have dreamed of but unattainable.

After comforting his mother, Yao Yi looked at his father Yao Qi again and said seriously: "Dad, I have made up my mind, but I have not submitted an application for withdrawal. I hope to convince you first and get your permission. This is the respect you deserve."

Yao Qi thought his son would say ridiculous words, such as "As an adult, he has the right to choose his own future. It is my own right to go to college or not, and his parents have no right to interfere." At this time, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and was surprised when he heard Yao Yi's words.

It is indeed the respect it deserves, but at the age of Yao Yi, who is not yet a parent, it is not easy to realize this.

After thinking about it, Yao Qi nodded gently: "You and your sister know that I started with sales. Do you think this is a carefully thought-provoked choice? Okay, give you a chance to sell your ideas to me. If you can convince me before my meal is over, then I will support you."

Hearing this sentence, Yao Yi picked up the corner of her mouth and gave a winning smile.

As expected, I was still the terrifying and cute dad in my memory, and it didn't change at all.

No one knows his son, and the other way around, is the same. Yao Yi had long guessed that his father would say this, and he had already thought that he had a thoughtful draft and said without hesitation: "There are three reasons that prompted me to make this decision."

"First." Yao Yi raised his index finger, "It is not necessarily easier to defend the world than to conquer the world. If you conquer my country and hope that my son will inherit his father's business, then I should let me devote myself to my position as soon as possible, receive training and accumulate experience in the actual work process. My university major and our Yao Group's business have no overlap at all. Whether it is to go to college or study abroad in the future, if you can't get the skills and professional knowledge I need, it's a waste of time. The only advantage is to accumulate personal resources. This return is far worse than my investment."

"Huh?" Yao Qi and his wife looked at each other, and both of them saw doubts and surprises in each other's eyes.

This time, Yao Qi was really surprised. Did this say come from his son's mouth? He almost thought he had auditory hallucinations.

Yao Yi keenly captured the change in his father's expression, struck while the iron was hot, and raised his second finger: "I am the continuation of your life. I am very grateful for the life and superior living conditions for me, but I don't want to stand behind you forever and live in your shadow. I want to live my own wonderful life and go my own way."

In the last life, Yao Yi followed the route arranged by her father, went to school, studied, went abroad to gilt, went back to China for a blind date, and spent the best time of her life in confusion, but her heart, which was often throbbing, had nowhere to rest.

Now that I have lived for a lifetime, Yao Yi doesn't want to repeat the challengeless and fun-free route.

However, if you want to impress your father, it is far from enough to rely on these lines that have long been ruined.

You also need to add some materials to make the mood flame burn even more vigorously!

"Third." Yao Yi raised his ring finger and stared at his father's sharp eyes, and said emotionally, "I want to have a sense of superiority, a true sense of superiority!"

"I am a rich second generation, a rich second generation that everyone envies and despises. I am lying under the shadow of my father and enjoying my life. Even though I have never put in any effort, I can enjoy luxury cars, luxury houses and billions of assets that others can't fight for in their entire lives!"

"Perhaps some people will think this is good and happy, but I don't think so! Happiness comes from satisfaction and a sense of superiority. I am not satisfied with everything I have done in the past twenty years, and I don't have any sense of superiority when compared with my peers!"

"Do you know why I don't have a sense of superiority? Because when I was a child, you said to me: 'Whenever you want to criticize others, remember that not everyone in this world has the superiority you have'. This sentence comes from "The Great Gatsby" and is also a warning from a father to his son."

"I have always kept this sentence in my heart over the years. Whenever I see a peer who is not as good as my age, I will think of this sentence. I think that his grades are not as good as me, not necessarily because I am smarter than him or harder than him. It is probably because I don't need to do housework to share my energy, but he has to help poor parents set up stalls and work, it is probably because I have one-on-one extracurricular tutoring from a first-class teacher, but he may not be able to afford a decent pen!"

"Dad, can you understand my feelings? Can you?"

Yao Yi held the table with both hands, stood up excitedly, raised the volume and continued: "Anyone needs recognition, and I am no exception from others' recognition and self-recognition! I want to prove myself! I want to be recognized! I hope that one day in the future when I see others are inferior to me, I can say openly that they are not as good as me, and I am better than them!"
