Chapter: 4994

Li Yalin's daughter was not exceptionally good at her studies during her youth, and she was quite rebellious. As a police officer, Li Yalin is even stricter than average parents, so his daughter has been struggling to break free from his strict control without any chance to gain freedom.

Despite living in the United States for half his life, Li Yalin's bones are still those of a traditional Chinese parent, and his approach to educating his daughter can be summed up as "excessive interference and strict discipline."

As a result of his high-pressure parenting, his daughter went from being rebellious to developing a relatively apathetic attitude towards learning.

The relationship between Li Yalin and his daughter has never improved over time.

Li Yalin's retirement income is roughly around $45,000 to $50,000 per year.

Although this income level is not low, it has pinned his family firmly in the middle class, with no worries about clothing or food, but far from being wealthy.

His daughter got married last year and married a Chinese young man who graduated from a prestigious university and works at NASA.

This son-in-law may have some talent, but he's too proud, and since he doesn't receive much attention at NASA, he often feels frustrated and helpless.

Li Yalin was very understanding towards his son-in-law. He's a professional talent in the aerospace field, with excellent education and skills, but due to his Chinese identity and lack of connections, he's been constantly suppressed at NASA.

In fact, Li Yalin had the same experience when he first became a chief explorer.

Even though there may be few obvious biases against minority races within the American police system, the pressure is omnipresent in the larger environment.

Most minority police officers are assigned to relatively low-level positions and have to work harder than others to climb up the ranks.

After returning home, Li Yalin left his family in the living room, still lamenting and saying: "It's a relief to be back, let's get together first."

The wife, daughter, and son-in-law all agreed without hesitation and sat on either side of Li Yalin.

Li Yalin took out the $1 million check from Feng Ke Xin and said: "Regarding this money, my current idea is to leave it all to the grandchild in your belly for a family trust."

The daughter hastily replied: "Dad, the child hasn't been born yet. You don't need to think about this so far ahead..."

Li Yalin spoke sternly: "This is something I must consider. I used to not consider you enough, which led to our family's relationship being so distant. Besides, I'm not doing it for you, but for your child and his children afterwards..."

As he said that, he sighed: "After getting to know your aunt and uncle, I've learned a lesson. It's because Western wealthy people prioritize inheritance contracts rather than simply inheriting, which allows them to continue being rich for generations. So, starting from the grandchild in your belly, we'll also set up a family trust and invest this $1 million. By the time the child turns 18, it should at least double."

The son-in-law couldn't help but speak up at this moment: "Dad... there's something I've been thinking about on my way back and wanted to tell you, please don't get angry with me when I say it..."

Li Yalin looked at his son-in-law and nodded: "Little grandson, go ahead."

The son-in-law hesitated for a moment, then said sternly: "During the time we were at Anbang Building, Mr. An Chongqiu from the An family approached me to chat about something. He said the An family was willing to offer $100 million to set up a trust for my child with your daughter-in-law, on one condition: if their child is a boy, he would have to take your surname Li; if it's a girl, she could choose whether to take your surname or wait until another boy is born and then let him take the surname..."

Li Yalin and his wife were both shocked.

Li Yalin was particularly taken aback, having not expected An Chongqiu to secretly discuss this with his son-in-law. He quickly said: "Little grandson, don't get angry. Your Uncle An told you these things mainly because of your grandfather's old-fashioned ideas. Please don't take it to heart or blame him..."

"Not... not..." the son-in-law replied awkwardly: "Dad... I... I already... I already made up my own mind... agreed..."

"What do you mean you agreed?" JrNovels.com
