Pingchuan.
Hsu Shengzhe glared at Li Dong, his face full of dissatisfaction.
Li Dong, on the other hand, had an innocent look on his face as he said helplessly, "Why are you looking at me? Isn't it better to grab a golden abacus? You're in business, I'm in business. Our daughter is destined to be rich and powerful."
Hsu Shengzhe said unhappily, "It's clearly about grabbing the three-character classic, why are you messing around! Our Xu family has been rich for decades, my daughter should be a writer. If it wasn't for you swinging the abacus around, would she be able to grab it? "
"That's not right. What's so good about being a writer? People in this line of work like to be sad and sad. They're not as carefree as we are, don't you think? "
"But you can't purposely lure …"
"…"
The two of them argued endlessly about the child's week. The others could only smile helplessly.
It was just a child grabbing something. What could she do with it?
Everyone was just enjoying the show, but the two of them were arguing. How boring.
As the two of them argued, Xu Jianghua, who was pushed over in a wheelchair, said shakily, "Good abacus. When the girl grows up, she can protect the Xu family business and take care of her uncle. "
The moment the old man spoke, Hsu Shengzhe fell silent.
Li Dong glanced at the old man, smiled, and said nothing.
Xu Jianghua was now completely old, so old that he didn't know how long he could live.
Ever since the company was taken over by his son, he became an outsider. In addition, his eldest son, whom he had always doted on, had gotten into trouble. Not only was Xu Jianghua old, but his heart was also old.
Two years ago, Xu Jianghua could still stay up late to work overtime and attend meetings for three days in a row.
But now, he couldn't even take care of himself.
In Jiangbei, Xu Jianghua was considered a formidable person.
Starting from scratch and establishing such a huge family business, he was also a legendary figure.
Every self-made tycoon's experience was actually a legend. It was just that some were famous, and some were unknown.
Xu Jianghua surpassed his peers in Jiangbei, especially in the real estate industry. When he was young, he was known for being ruthless and ruthless.
However, everyone would grow old one day.
Xu Jianghua was completely old.
Until now, the only thing he hoped for was that his eldest son, who had become a vegetable, would have someone to take care of him after he died.
It would be fine if he were alive, but if he were dead, he would be fine for a year or two.
It was hard to say for three to five years.
After a few more years, would Hsu Shengzhe really continue to take care of his big brother?
Although the old man was crippled and his mind was sometimes muddled, he would always think of these things when he was awake.
It could be said that he had put in a lot of effort to say these words when his granddaughter was trying to catch Zhou.
For the sake of the Xu family's reputation and Hsu Shengzhe's own reputation, asking his granddaughter to take care of Big Uncle in front of all the famous people of Jiangbei, he had to have some misgivings.
Hsu Shengzhe, on the other hand, didn't show any abnormalities. He smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry. We will take good care of Big Brother. You're not feeling well, and it's cold outside. It's better for you to return to your room and rest. "
With that, Hsu Shengzhe glanced at the helper pushing the wheelchair. "Take the old man back to his room to rest. Can't you see how cold it is outside? Let me know the next time the old man comes out. "
The helper hurriedly said, "Got it. I'll take the old man back to his room."
"Mm."
Hsu Shengzhe nodded, then crouched down to help the old man tuck in the blanket covering his legs. He said softly, "Dad, don't catch a cold. I'll come see you after I'm done here."
Xu Jianghua glanced at his youngest son with murky eyes. After a while, he murmured, "Alright, I'll go back. You do what you need to do."
"Take care."
Hsu Shengzhe was all smiles as he walked the old man out of the house.
The Xu family manor was huge. The old man didn't live with the family of three, so they weren't close.
After the old man disappeared in front of the door, Hsu Shengzhe turned back to the house and sighed. "Time and tide wait for no man. It's my daughter's birthday today, but my father is so old. It's hard to understand. Everyone, let me propose a toast to everyone. I wish everyone eternal youth! "
Everyone raised their glasses and sighed. The discussion about Xu Jianghua had completely disappeared.
The new generation had triumphed over the old. Xu Jianghua had become a thing of the past.
Now, the leader of Longhua was Hsu Shengzhe. He was an ambitious man who was past his prime and not worth discussing.
…
In the crowd, Li Dong said softly, "Living to this point is really boring. When I reach this point, kill me as soon as possible. Otherwise, I won't be able to do it myself. "
Shen Qian's lips curled up slightly. She chuckled. "I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for that day. I'm older than you. You have to endure it yourself."
"Women live long lives. But then again, you're still here, and I can't bear to leave. Forget it, I'll make do and endure it with you."
Shen Qian did not speak again, but she held his hand tightly.
This guy's words were getting more and more intoxicating.
Li Dong didn't lament about it anymore. Holding his wine glass, he held Shen Qian's hand and walked over to Ji Lanxin, who was not far away. He smiled and said, "Lanxin, it's been a while."
Ji Lanxin saw Li Dong and quickly smiled. "You're too busy, and I didn't want to disturb you. Let's not talk about anything else. Congratulations on your marriage with CEO Shen. Don't forget to inform me when you get married. "
Li Dong laughed. "Of course. By the way, is President Ji in good health? This time, the old man has been troubled because of me. I was going to visit the president these two days, but I was delayed by something else. I'll take some time to visit the old man tomorrow or the day after. Is that convenient? "
Ji Lanxin's eyes lit up when she heard this. She quickly said, "Convenient. Of course it's convenient. My father's body is actually fine. He just caught a cold. He was going to come today, but he was afraid of infecting the child, so he didn't come. But before I came, my father asked me to tell you that the offline payment service has begun to be promoted on a large scale in several provinces in Huadong. Due to the hardware, it hasn't been fully covered yet. But as long as the hardware keeps up, the Far away payment service will soon be promoted in the whole of Huadong. "
Li Dong nodded and smiled. "I already know about this. The old man has been working hard for this matter, and I'm ashamed to accept it. The old man's contribution to the Wan Tao offline payment service in the future can't go unnoticed. I won't say much about it. In short, I'm very grateful! "
Li Dong clinked glasses with Ji Lanxin.
Although Ji Lanxin was a woman, she didn't hesitate and drank half of the red wine in one gulp.
After saying this, Li Dong smiled again. "Lanxin, there's something else I need to trouble you with."
"Say it. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse!"
Li Dong waved his hand and smiled. "Don't be so formal. It's not a big deal. Shen Qian and I are getting married, but we haven't chosen the jewelry yet. Shen Qian usually doesn't like to wear these, but she can't be too shabby when she gets married. Didn't your Jin Ding enter the high-end jewelry market a few years ago? Is it convenient for you to help us prepare? Shen Qian and I will pick a few sets of jewelry. "
Ji Lanxin was overjoyed when she heard this!
Li Dong's wedding was a big event that people in all walks of life were looking forward to.
Moreover, since he didn't choose to keep his wedding a secret, it would definitely be a big event.
At this time, Shen Qian chose Jin Ding Jewelry, which was simply a free worldwide advertisement!
Jin Ding wasn't a super well-known jewelry company, and it hadn't been in the high-end jewelry market for a long time.
But once Li Dong chose Jin Ding Jewelry for his wedding, it would be completely spread in the upper circle.
Li Dong was now dealing with people with less than a billion yuan in wealth. How could they be called rich?
These people were the main customers of the high-end jewelry market.
Previously, because of the horse gambling at the Golden Tripod Club, the relationship between Li Dong and Jin Ding became more and more distant. Ji Yuanzhong felt this, so he didn't hesitate to run around for Li Dong in his old age.
The purpose was to get closer to Li Dong.
Now, Li Dong chose Jin Ding Jewelry for his wedding, which was also a return of the favor. Ji Lanxin was clear in her heart.
Thinking of this, Ji Lanxin waited for Li Dong to finish speaking, then quickly nodded and said, "No problem. I'll take out all the inventory of Jin Ding Jewelry right away. In addition, we have customized a batch of high-end jewelry in Hong Kong and abroad. They are all designed by internationally renowned designers and are unique in the world. If you and Mr. Shen are free, you can come and have a look in person. If time is tight, I'll send them over for you to choose. "
Li Dong nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll call you when the time comes. As for the style, I don't know much about it. But I bought a ring last time. It's best to match it. I don't care about the style, but our Shen Qian is very picky. Lanxin, you have to suffer this time. "
Shen Qian covered her mouth and chuckled, "Don't slander me. I don't know much about this. It's fine as long as it's suitable. There's no need to be too extravagant. Lanxin, try to make it simple. Don't look at those designs that are too complicated. "
"No problem!"
Ji Lanxin readily agreed, then smiled and said, "Sister Shen, speaking of which, I really envy you.
It's probably every woman's dream to be able to marry Li Dong.
Especially in the jewelry industry, although we didn't see the proposal ceremony between you and Li Dong, it was widely spread.
It's so charming to use a Wittelsbach as an engagement ring.
This was once inlaid in the Bavarian crown and is known as one of the most beautiful diamonds in the 17th century. I didn't expect that one day it would be made into a diamond ring.
When they heard the news, many people's eyes turned red with envy. "
Shen Qian glanced at Li Dong and said with a flirtatious look, "It's his own decision. I didn't know that he had asked someone to participate in the auction. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have let him buy it."
Li Dong said with a smile, "It's my fault. In the future, I'll ask you for instructions first."
"You don't mean what you say."
As the two talked, Ji Lanxin couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Shen, don't show off your love in front of me. When I met Li Dong before, I always wondered who could subdue him. If he were married, I'm afraid that he would be extremely strong and his wife would be submissive. But now it seems that it's the other way around. I'm worried that Li Dong will be punished to kneel on a washboard in the future. If that's the case, Sister Shen, remember to take a photo and send it to me. All these years, I've never seen him suffer a loss. "
Shen Qian suddenly laughed and said, "I'm afraid there won't be such a chance. He has the final say in our family. I dare not punish him."
"Who said that? Lanxin, don't listen to her nonsense. I'm the weak group at home. If I really get punished to kneel on a washboard, remember to censor the photo before sending it. Don't show my face."
As soon as this was said, Shen Qian and Ji Lanxin couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, Hsu Shengzhe, who had just walked over, couldn't help but laugh and said, "What are you talking about? Why are you so happy?"
"We're talking about Li Dong and Sister Shen's marriage. I'm so envious. It made me, a person who doesn't want to marry, want to find someone to marry."
When Ji Lanxin said this, she looked at Hsu Shengzhe.
Hsu Shengzhe laughed dryly and didn't reply.
He and Ji Lanxin had known each other for many years. In the past, his father was the president of Jiangbei's Chamber of Commerce, and Ji Lanxin's father was the vice president.
They were both tycoons in Jiangbei's business world, and they were familiar with each other for a long time.
At that time, Xu Rulong had pursued Ji Lanxin, but he was rejected.
Xu Jianghua had once wanted his eldest son to marry Ji Lanxin. After all, the Ji family was not weak. After he left, his eldest son could take over the family business, and it would be smoother with the Ji family's help.
However, Ji Lanxin wasn't willing, and there were many unforeseen events later on, so the matter naturally fell through.
As time passed, Ji Lanxin and Hsu Shengzhe took a liking to each other.
After all, Hsu Shengzhe was also a rare young talent. In Ji Lanxin's eyes, Hsu Shengzhe was even more outstanding than Li Dong.
Whether it was looks, knowledge, or temperament, Hsu Shengzhe was a dragon among men.
Li Dong came from a humble background. Some people liked his style, but some people preferred Hsu Shengzhe, who was an outstanding second generation from a big family.
Unfortunately, the falling flowers yearned for love, but the heartless water flowed.
Hsu Shengzhe didn't choose Ji Lanxin, who was from the same family as him. Instead, he chose Bai Yue Qin, who was from an ordinary family.
Whether it was true love, or because of other considerations, no one knew.
In short, this relationship, which had not even started, quickly fell through.
Ji Lanxin said that she didn't want to get married, and her marriage with Hsu Shengzhe had a lot to do with it.
Hsu Shengzhe didn't say anything, but Li Dong gave him the middle finger. Damn you, did you have fun scolding me before?
Now you should know how difficult it is to be in this situation.
You can play with normal women, but if you have the guts, why don't you play with Ji Lanxin?
In the end, if you don't tire yourself out, consider it my loss!
Hsu Shengzhe couldn't be bothered with him, and changed the topic. "You said that you want my gardens, have you seen them?"
"Not yet, I will take some time to see them. If you really like them, give me the lowest price. Don't think about making a lot of money from me. We are both in this business, and I know how much it costs. If it wasn't for the fact that time is tight, I wouldn't even bother to take advantage of you. "
Hsu Shengzhe sneered and said, "It's big news if I can get a penny from you, Li Dong! I don't expect to make any money, just treat it as a wedding gift. Of course, I still have to give you the cost price. After all, Longhua doesn't belong to me alone. The land price wasn't expensive a few years ago, and the gardens haven't been maintained for a long time. If you really want it, go and see it as soon as possible, and then find someone to design it. It's not far from my place, and we can work together from time to time when you move here. "
As his voice fell, Ji Lanxin smiled and said, "Is there anything else? I want to see it later, and it's not bad for us to be neighbors. "
"Cough, cough …"
Hsu Shengzhe coughed dryly and didn't reply. Just like what Li Dong said, it's fine for others to have fun, but not for Ji Lanxin.
If she moves next door to him, he would have a headache in the future.
Seeing that even Hsu Shengzhe has times where he can be defeated, Li Dong couldn't help but laugh.
However, the other party already has a wife and daughter, and Li Dong didn't want to ruin their family. If they're not married, it's still fun to tease them.
But since they're married, it's better not to joke around.
After chatting for a while, Li Dong didn't stay here for long. He brought Shen Qian to wander around for a while, chatting with some tycoons in Jiangbei.
…
Not far away, Hsu Shengzhe saw them shuttling through the crowd and couldn't help sighing, "I really didn't see this guy before, but now it seems that he's also a henpecked man."
"What about you?" Ji Lanxin asked with a faint smile.
Hsu Shengzhe chuckled, "I'm different from him. He's more sentimental, and he's willing to be caught. As for me, I'm more suitable to be a prodigal son. I'm afraid you won't be able to restrain me with a net. "
After saying this, Hsu Shengzhe raised his wine glass and said, "I'll go take a look first, we'll talk later."
Ji Lanxin nodded, and after he left, she couldn't help but sigh softly.
If you're really a prodigal son, you shouldn't have said this to me.
