Xia Jianying was slightly surprised; he had thought that even if things turned out successfully, it would at least require some maneuvering.
He hadn't expected Chen Kai to dismiss Yang Fan that quickly, giving him a faint sense of a hare's death and a hound's cooking.
Normally, no matter how good their relationship seemed, when it came to life-and-death matters, it was every man for himself.
He was not unaware of the close relationship between Yang Fan and Chen Kai, and he also knew how highly Chen Kai thought of Yang Fan.
But when the project lost its qualification to compete, it was still about sacrificing the lesser for the greater.
Xia Jianying didn't want his daughter to be so heartbroken, so he sighed softly and stroked Xia Yuan's hair with his hand.
"Actually, you don't need to be too sad, not with Yang Fan gone, there are plenty more outstanding men in the world. Your dad will find you another one, guaranteed to be only better than Yang Fan, not worse."
