After the last group meeting of 2007, Li Dong once again hid in the provincial party committee compound.
From that day until New Year's Day, he didn't want to go to the company anymore.
Over the past year, he got up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs.
Sometimes, Li Dong himself couldn't figure out why he was so busy.
With his current net worth, it wouldn't be a problem for him to support thousands of people for a lifetime, let alone himself.
After selling Faraway Group, he wouldn't do anything else but save the money in the bank.
His net worth was almost 40 billion yuan. After some calculations, he could probably get 2 billion yuan in bank interest every year.
As long as the government was still there, the major state-owned banks wouldn't collapse. Thinking about it, he could live a comfortable life.
Thinking was thinking, but people still needed to have some dreams.
When he was just reborn, Li Dong didn't have big dreams. He just wanted to have a car and a house, make a small fortune, and be a rich man.
However, now, as his business got bigger and bigger, his dreams also increased.
To be the largest retail group in the country, to be the country's hegemon, to let Hua Xia retail go abroad …
When the dream was big, people naturally got tired.
Li Dong could only comfort himself. What was the difference between a person without dreams and a salted fish, although he felt that being a salted fish was actually not bad.
…
In the small courtyard.
The bluestone floor was covered with a shallow layer of fallen leaves.
The nanny wanted to clean it, but Li Dong stopped her.
The spotless floor didn't look as comfortable as it was now.
Tian Xiaoyu and Little Shitou were running around in the courtyard. More than a year had passed since Li Dong picked them up.
After this year, Tian Xiaoyu would be 11 years old, and Little Shitou would be 5 years old.
Looking at Little Shitou, who could only squeak, Li Dong was a little worried.
Now it seemed that the possibility of natural recovery was getting lower and lower. He could only think of a way to send Little Shitou to the recovery center for training.
Otherwise, if he couldn't speak when he went to elementary school, he would definitely be discriminated against.
Although Li Dong was now very rich, people's hearts couldn't be solved by wealth. Children didn't understand the meaning of wealth, and Li Dong couldn't be bothered with a group of children.
With a sigh, Li Dong shouted, "Little Shitou!"
The chubby girl, who was playing around, twisted her little butt and ran over. She blinked her big eyes at Li Dong.
Li Dong rubbed her head and said, "Call me uncle."
"Yaya …"
"No, it's uncle …"
"Yaya …"
The little girl looked happy, but her squeaky's words made Li Shitou feel disappointed.
It seemed like he had to tighten his grip. The younger he was, the easier it was for him to recover.
When he got older, his vocal cords would be fixed. At that time, it would be impossible for him to recover.
Children were actually the most sensitive. Little Shitou seemed to feel Li Dong's disappointment.
A look of confusion appeared on her chubby face. Then, like an adult, the little girl frowned, stretched out her finger, and bit it.
"Li Li Sht Shew. Sht" When, "Li", "Li Li Li '
Li Dong was startled for a moment. Then, he said in a pleasantly surprised manner, "Shi Tou, you can call people?"
When Little Shitou saw that Li Dong was happy, he also nodded happily and opened his mouth wide.
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. He had praised this girl for nothing.
However, he did hear what the girl shouted just now. Although it wasn't clear, it wasn't the vague "ya ya" from before.
It seemed that there was still hope for her to recover on her own. Li Dong did not do anything else. He spent the whole afternoon teaching the little girl how to speak.
Although the effects were minimal, Li Dong still saw hope.
When Shen Qian saw this scene, she couldn't help but laugh and say, "It seems that it's working. How about this, I'll find a speech rehabilitation specialist to help train him. It won't take long for him to be able to speak normally."
After Shen Qian finished speaking, Li Dong was stunned for a moment.
That seems to be the case!
Why didn't she think of bringing the specialist home? Instead, she was so focused on sending Little Shitou to the rehabilitation center?
He was the richest man in Jiangbei. Would it be a problem to hire a specialist?
Previously, he was still thinking that Little Shitou was too young. Would it be hard for him to send him to the rehabilitation center? Would he not have time to visit him? Would the doctors there be irresponsible …
Only now did Li Dong realize how stupid he had become.
Seeing his dumbfounded expression, Shen Qian laughed and said, "What's wrong? Did you get a shock?"
"A little."
Li Dong had a helpless expression on his face. It seemed that his thinking was still too rigid.
Without giving Shen Qian another chance to expose his shortcomings, Li Dong said, "Then you should pay more attention to this matter. Little Shitou can speak in the afternoon. I think he should be fine after a period of training. Oh right, how's your house search going? "
When Du Anmin moved to the capital, the house in the provincial party committee's compound was naturally given to him.
Although the province didn't force Shen Qian to move out, they couldn't be so shameless.
Shen Qian wasn't someone who lacked money, so she had been looking for a house for the past few days.
When she heard Li Dong ask about a house, Shen Qian teased Little Shitou and casually said, "I'm still looking. I've taken a fancy to the small courtyard next to yours. I'm planning to continue being your neighbor."
Li Dong smiled when he heard that, "It's pretty good. You're familiar with the environment here. If you're used to living here, you won't be able to adapt to a different environment."
"Mhm, but the courtyard is the same as your previous one. It's too old and needs to be renovated."
"Then renovate it. If we renovate it now, it will be ready for people to live in at the beginning of the year."
After Li Dong finished speaking, Shen Qian continued with a smile, "Yes, it will only be ready for people to live in at the beginning of the year. It seems that I can only stay in a hotel for the time being."
Li Dong was stunned for a moment. He wasn't really stupid.
After Shen Qian finished speaking, Li Dong roughly knew what she wanted to say.
Although he wasn't too sure, Li Dong's mind was in turmoil.
What did that mean?
If she didn't want to live in a hotel, then did she want to …
Li Dong was a little excited at first, but then his hair stood on end. This seemed to be very difficult to answer.
If she didn't want to live in a hotel, a normal man would definitely volunteer and shout, "Stay at my place!"
The key point was that Li Dong's situation was a bit complicated. It was going to be winter vacation soon, and Qin Yuhan would definitely come back.
Moreover, some of the company's executives would usually come to the small courtyard to report the situation to him. If he let Shen Qian live here, wouldn't he be courting death?
However, if he didn't say anything, Shen Qian would probably be disappointed.
Maybe she just wanted to test Li Dong, but in the end, Li Dong even pretended to be stupid. Didn't that mean that Li Dong didn't care about her at all?
At this time, Li Dong felt a headache coming on. This matter was difficult to handle.
Just as he was thinking, the small courtyard became completely quiet.
Shen Qian didn't say anything and continued to tease Little Shitou.
After a while, Li Dong gritted his teeth. If he was going to die, then so be it!
If he didn't say anything at this time, then he was afraid that he wouldn't have a good life in the future.
After a long breath, Li Dong laughed and said, "Then stay at my place. I have a lot of rooms here, so you don't have to move around."
Shen Qian faintly said, "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"Chief Qin will sometimes come over here …"
At this time, Li Dong also remembered that Qin Hai would sometimes come over to report on the work. His scalp went slightly numb, but he still suppressed his palpitations and said, "What's wrong with that? You don't have a place to live, so staying in a hotel is a waste of money. Moreover … moreover … "
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was stumped, Shen Qian chuckled.
After a while, Shen Qian shook her head and said, "What's wrong with me staying at your place? Moreover, many people in the courtyard know me. If this gets out, I won't have any face left. Isn't the villa in your Lan Mountain Villa not for sale? Later, I will move there for a period of time. It will only be a matter of a few months. "
"That's not good …"
Li Dong still wanted to say a few more pretentious words, but he heard Shen Qian say with a faint smile, "Then I will stay here?"
"Ahem, if you want to stay, then stay. I'm a man, what's there to be unhappy about?"
"Tsk!"
Shen Qian snorted and said disapprovingly, "Stop pretending. Look at how scared you are. If I really agree, I'm afraid that you won't be able to sleep tonight. "
Li Dong said embarrassedly, "How can I? I really want you to stay …"
"If you continue to be pretentious, I will really move here."
Shen Qian snorted and didn't continue this topic. She changed the topic and said, "By the way, Hu Xiaorui's birthday is in two days. Did she invite you?"
"Yes, and she invited you too?"
"She didn't invite me, but Hu Ming did. But I'm too lazy to go, so you should take it easy. What is this brat thinking? Does she think that I can't see through her? She gave you a car, opened a film company, and now she specially invited you for her birthday. Is she going to take this opportunity to confess to you? Let me remind you, don't go too far. I'm too lazy to think about Qin Yuhan now. If you provoke another one, hehe … "
Shen Qian ended with a sneer. As for what she meant by 'hehe', Li Dong thought about it himself.
Li Dong said helplessly, "You've really wronged me. I've always treated Xiaorui as a younger sister. Besides, this lass is like a child herself … "
"Child?"
Shen Qian snorted and said, "Come on, she's not younger than you. How can you have a younger sister? Child? That brat's chest is bigger than mine … Ahem, anyway, don't find excuses like brother or sister. I just hate it. "
Li Dong listened to the first half of the sentence seriously, but Li Dong almost laughed out loud when he heard the second half.
He subconsciously glanced at Shen Qian's chest and recalled the size of Hu Xiaorui's.
Li Dong touched his chin. That girl seemed to be a little bigger than Shen Qian. How did she grow like that?
He didn't pay much attention to it usually, but if Shen Qian didn't mention it today, he wouldn't have thought about it.
Feeling Li Dong's gaze, Shen Qian looked up at him. Seeing his thoughtful expression, Shen Qian couldn't help but spit, "What are you looking at? Where are you looking! I don't know what you're thinking about all day long. Anyway, I'm warning you, don't provoke Hu Xiaorui! "
"Understood, understood!"
Li Dong nodded quickly and then said with a smile, "Yours is actually not small. Don't feel inferior …"
"Get lost!"
Li Dong's words were considered a taboo. Following that, there was a series of screams in the small courtyard.
Until dinner time, Li Dong still looked at Shen Qian with a face full of resentment.
This woman really didn't go easy on him. His waist was probably bruised from the pinch.
Didn't I just say something to compliment you? My good intentions weren't rewarded.
