Lisa, on a rare occasion, sent a message to Tan Yao.

Lisa: Are you investing in [The Pursuit of the Heart]?

When Tan Yao heard his phone beep, he glanced at the screen. Lisa's name made him pause for a moment. It had been a long time since he last contacted Lisa. When he first learned that she wanted to enter the entertainment industry, he was considering how to convince his father. However, before he could come up with a plan, Lisa and Jungkook made their relationship official.

After that, Tan Yao completely gave up on the idea. He didn't expect Lisa to reach out to him today.

After reading Lisa's message, he frowned slightly and replied: I haven't heard about this news. Where did you hear it from?

Lisa: Director Tuan mentioned that President Tan from the Rongtai Group; is that your father?

Tan Yao's frown deepened. According to what the director said, it should be his father. However, his father detested the entertainment industry, didn't he?

But his father had been acting a bit strange lately. One time when he went to his father's study, he saw him browsing through information about Lisa. As soon as he noticed Tan Yao entering the room, he quickly closed the computer screen.

Now, his father was planning to invest in Lisa's drama? Could it be that his father liked Lisa?

"..." Tan Yao was rendered speechless by his own thoughts.

Tan Yao: I'll ask my father when I get back. No one mentioned this during the meeting today.

Lisa: Oh... It's alright, I was just casually asking.

After work in the afternoon, Tan Yao deliberately waited for his father before leaving. Tan Liwen glanced at Tan Yao, who got into the same car as him, and raised an eyebrow lightly, "Where's your car?"

"Oh, I sent it for maintenance," Tan Yao smiled and brushed it off, casually closing the car door. Tan Liwen chuckled, not believing him at all, "Did you get into some trouble again and need my help?"

"Hey, it really isn't this time," Tan Yao turned his head to appraise his old father, "Dad, I have something to ask you. Are you planning to invest in 'The Pursuit of the Heart'?"

Tan Liwen's expression changed instantly. Seeing his father's reaction, Tan Yao's heart also tensed up.

Could it be that he guessed right; his father actually likes Lisa??

"Where did you hear this news?" Tan Liwen asked calmly. Tan Yao thought for a moment and decided to give Lisa some cover, "It was just something a friend mentioned. You know I have a lot of friends, and they come from all sorts of backgrounds."

"Is that so?" Tan Liwen asked in return without confirming or denying anything, nor did he intend to explain anything to Tan Yao, "This has nothing to do with you."

"How can this have nothing to do with me? After all, I am the company's general manager."

"Ha, you only remember you're the general manager at a time like this."

Tan Yao choked for a moment, but then he felt that he had been performing well recently, and his confidence rose, "If I weren't the general manager, why do you always have me stay at the company?"

"Aren't you recuperating from your injuries there?" Tan Liwen said, "I know you too well."

"..." Tan Yao had nothing to say.

"Even if I'm really planning to invest, it's my personal action, not related to the company. I don't need to explain it to you as the general manager," Tan Liwen said.
