Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1338: Chapter 1332: Recognizing Shortcomings _1 Chapter 1338: Chapter 1332: Recognizing Shortcomings _1 “Remember the dinner tonight, don’t stand us up. Otherwise, you’ll miss out on the good food.” Chu Molin left these words behind and left with Ye Xuan, leaving Xiao Qi alone in the wind.

He realized he needed to speed up his work schedule or he wouldn’t be able to make it, especially considering the woman he longed for would also be there.

He had to go no matter what. If his work wasn’t finished, he could bring it home for overtime or delegate some tasks to his secretary. As the boss, not many people could afford to sneak away from work like Xiao Qi.

However, in Xiao Qi’s heart, nothing was more important than his beloved. For his love, he was willing to strive.

Such a mad idea had never occurred in Xiao Qi’s mind before – that he could forsake everything for a woman.

But Nangong Beiying made him do so, and he realized that to experience such madness once in his life was good, at least he would have no regrets.

“Reporting.” The two men showed their IDs and entered the research institute. They didn’t waste any time and headed straight for Ye Xiao’s office.

“Come in.” Ye Xiao didn’t raise his head.

“Reporting, Ye Xuan rejoining the team.” Ye Xuan and Chu Molin stood in front of Ye Xiao, only Ye Xuan spoke, while Chu Molin remained silent.

“Good to have you back, did you get injured?” Ye Xiao asked Ye Xuan. He knew that ever since his mother disappeared, his son had never smiled again. He tried to make him understand that it wasn’t his fault, but his son wouldn’t listen. He was powerless to do anything but let him carry on, unable to alleviate his heartache.

“No.” Ye Xuan didn’t want to worry his father, so he hid his injury.

“Tell me your thoughts.” Ye Xiao gestured to the chairs in front of him, inviting them to sit and talk.

“I think there’s a division within their ranks. The current leader of X wants to leave their organization, so his superiors want to get rid of him.” Ye Xuan relayed the conclusions he and Chu Molin had reached to his father.

“Correct, they are hoping the military and the leader of X will destroy each other. Unfortunately for them, they seemed to have underestimated him. It’s probable that he has long wanted to escape and didn’t give them the opportunity to succeed.” Chu Molin added.

“Your points are valid. As long as he doesn’t threaten societal stability or national security and property, we can momentarily leave the leader of X be, considering he’s not breaking the law. Ye Xuan, your main task now is to think about your shortcomings, and how you can improve and be more thorough in the future.” Ye Xiao thought that it was lucky that Chu Molin had spotted something was off this time, or he might have lost his son.

So, he needed to let his son realize his weaknesses in order to rectify them. Only by acknowledging one’s shortcomings can one improve.

“I understand.” Ye Xuan knew he had been negligent this time. He had spent a year on the X leader case only to find out it was not the same person in the end. It was impossible not to feel frustrated. However, he would make corrections and strive to do better next time.

“This time, we owe a lot to your elder brother. Otherwise, I don’t know what the outcome would have been.” Ye Xiao looked at his eldest son. He was capable, but sometimes too stubborn, which hampered his ability to see things from a wider and more long-term perspective. If he didn’t change this mindset, he would continue to make the same mistakes.
