Chester, upon hearing Dong Tianyu's refusal to trade, didn't feel overly disappointed, after all, he had already come to terms with this possibility before his visit.
So when Dong Tianyu declined the deal, Chester consciously changed the subject, seeking to understand Dong Tianyu's network of relationships, which could also provide indirect insight into Dong Tianyu's current situation.
When he learned that Dong Tianyu's parents were still alive, Chester thought about encouraging Dong Tianyu to bring his parents over to live here.
Through some time spent together, Chester had noticed that no matter how Dong Tianyu appeared on the surface, at his core, he was still quite traditional.
It is often said that elderly parents don't want their children to go far away—the old saying is good: "When parents are alive, do not travel afar."
However, they never mention the next line: "If you must travel, you should have a plan."
