Auntie Lin cooked a bowl of hot egg noodles. When Chen Hansheng was wolfing it down, Xiao Rongyu didn't come down, but her "mother-in-law", Lv Yuqing, sat next to her and chatted with her about business.
Lv Yuqing was different from Liang Meijuan. Liang Meijuan was a pure housewife who only cared about her husband and son. She rarely paid attention to national affairs or industry policies.
Lv Yuqing was a formal college student in the early days, and later became a leader of a unit. Sometimes, she said something, although not all of it was correct, it was still very good.
Therefore, the family that Xiao Hongwei and Lv Yuqing built had the kind of atmosphere that Wang Zibo envied. The parents were educated, and they respected each other when communicating with their children. Children from such families were generally more confident. Xiao Rongyu was a typical example.
When Lv Yuqing was chatting, she was actually observing Chen Hansheng. She and Chen Zhaojun had known each other for a long time. Chen Zhaojun was recognized as a kind director in Hong Kong's system. He rarely lost his temper, spoke slowly, and did not suppress his subordinates. He had always had a good reputation.
Liang Meijuan was a typical person who had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She was like a silly sister who was not scheming. But their son, Lv Yuqing really didn't know how to describe him.
His biggest characteristic was that he was not stingy. However, Chen Hansheng had a bottom line. For example, when he went to the countryside to visit his relatives last year, Chen Hansheng could coax a group of elders very well.
When Lv Yuqing went back home during the Spring Festival this year, there were elders who asked, "Where is Xiao Chen? He is very interesting. Bring him back when you have time."
"He just doesn't follow the rules. Except for Liang Meijuan, no one can control him."
Lv Yuqing sighed faintly. She felt that it would be better if Chen Hansheng was more honest. But on second thought, if he was too honest, he probably couldn't establish Nutshell Electronics from scratch.
The most important point was that Little Yu'er liked Chen Hansheng, and now they had a baby.
Lv Yuqing intended to persuade her daughter to take advantage of Chen Hansheng's visit this time. If she could explain things clearly, this would be the best ending. It was also the script that Old Xiao and herself were looking forward to the most.
If there was still no way to bury the hatchet, Lv Yuqing did not intend to force it, as long as her daughter was happy.
However, thinking about Little Yu'er's arrogance, Lv Yuqing felt a headache coming on. Children were all grown up, and they all had their own way of dealing with problems.
"Aunt Lu, you look a little tired."
Chen Hansheng finished his noodles and said with concern, "You must take care of your health. I'm still waiting for you to be like Sister Liang and take care of me for the rest of my life."
Lv Yuqing was stunned for a moment. "You're so young. Can't you work on your own? And who's Sister Liang?"
"Sister Liang is my mother. She raised me for eighteen years. Unfortunately, she stopped raising me after I went to university."
Chen Hansheng said with a smile, "I'll rely on Sister Lv to raise me in the future."
"Go away! You're so rude!"
Lv Yuqing couldn't help but shake her head.
Lv Yuqing had a lot of children from her juniors or colleagues. They were all university students and had also gone through ten years of hard work. In the dormitory, they could boast freely and confidently. However, when communicating with the elders, they were either timid and did not dare to speak, or pretended to be mature and talked loudly.
Chen Hansheng was very down-to-earth. He was always able to close the distance with others unknowingly. This "talent" of his was very obvious when he was in high school.
"No wonder Old Xiao thinks highly of Chen Hansheng."
Lv Yuqing thought in her heart. After Chen Hansheng's first business "failed", Xiao Hongwei was very certain that this brat would not be dormant for too long. This brat's second business would definitely amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. This judgment was probably based on Chen Hansheng's usual performance.
… …
When it was time to go to bed, Chen Hansheng was arranged to sleep in the same bedroom as last time. Aunt Lin had already made the bed. After taking a shower, Chen Hansheng lay on the bed and took out his phone to check his messages.
After more than ten hours of flying with his phone turned off, there were a lot of missed calls and messages. Most of them did not need to be replied to. There were even some loan shark advertisements that were sent to Chen Hansheng's phone, which was really ridiculous.
However, there were two messages that he still needed to reply to. One was from Chen Lan, and the other was from Wang Zibo.
Chen Lan: Brother, where have you been? I kept calling you, but your phone was turned off. Today, I went to Youchu's place for dinner, but Hu Linyu kept giving me a hard time. Did you offend her again? Is that why Fatty Hu vented his anger on me, his poor and cute younger sister?
This time, it was obvious that Chen Lan's younger sister was "taking the blame for her brother". It should be daytime in China right now, and Chen Lan should be in class while playing with her phone. Therefore, Chen Hansheng also replied to her message.
Chen Hansheng: Don't worry about Hu Linyu. Where's Shen Youchu? How is she treating you?
"Ding!"
Chen Lan replied very quickly.
Chen Lan: Sis-in-law is very nice to me. She made my favorite dishes and even asked me if I wanted to buy new clothes for the new season. But her eyes are bloodshot, and she doesn't seem to be in good spirits.
Chen Hansheng: Hey, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?
Chen Lan: The bad news first.
Chen Hansheng: I have an irreconcilable conflict with Shen Youchu.
Chen Lan: Is it that serious? If you promise to buy me a pair of Nike shoes, I will help you talk to her. Sis-in-law likes you so much, so it shouldn't be a big problem. What's the good news?
Chen Hansheng: You're going to be an aunt. Xiao Rongyu is pregnant, and I'm in America right now.
Chen Lan:?
After this "?" Chen Lan went silent for a long time before replying.
Chen Lan: What good news and bad news? It's obviously two pieces of bad news! After you have a baby, you won't dote on me as much as you did before!
Chen Hansheng ignored his jealous sister and replied to Wang Zibo's message.
Wang Zibo sent many messages. The general meaning was, "Why is your phone turned off? I only found out you were in America when I called Nie Xiaoyu. Little Yu 'er is pregnant. What should I do next?"
From the looks of it, he was probably more anxious than Chen Hansheng because Wang Zibo was very clear about his childhood friend's situation.
"Da, da, da!"
Chen Hansheng replied to Wang Zibo: I don't have any other ideas at the moment, but I have to get Little Yu 'er back to China first. Otherwise, my mom will kill me.
After about ten minutes, Wang Zibo replied and asked the same difficult question.
Wang Zibo: What about Shen Youchu?
Chen Hansheng: We can only block the leak now. Little Yu 'er's situation is more urgent now. Also, your seniority has been promoted. Don't forget to prepare a red packet of 2000 RMB.
Wang Zibo: How can 2000 RMB be enough? The school project's commission has been paid. I prepared a red packet of 6666 RMB. But to be honest, I'm happy and sad at the same time. I don't know how to describe it. Should I call her?
Chen Hansheng: Don't be so emotional. It's already past 1 am in America. It's disgusting for two men to talk about love in the middle of the night. I suggest you call Gao Jialiang. Maybe he will become the top one.
Wang Zibo: Damn, you're even more disgusting than me!
… ….
After teasing his best friend, Chen Hansheng's mood became a little better. He then searched for Shen Youchu's contact details. He hesitated for a long time but didn't know what to send. In the end, he sighed and put down his phone.
There were some "ding ding dang dang" sounds coming from the kitchen. Chen Hansheng opened the door and took a look. He discovered that Lv Yuqing was cooking nutritious soup for Little Yu 'er. Although the nanny, Auntie Lin, was already very responsible, she was not as attentive as a mother taking care of her daughter.
After Lv Yuqing finished cooking the soup, she walked up the stairs and brought the soup to the second floor. Little Yu 'er was still reading in the bedroom.
"Daughter, eat some supper."
Lv Yuqing put down the bowl of soup and sat on the bed to help Little Yu 'er tie up her hair.
"What did you talk about with him just now?"
Little Yu 'er pouted her lips and seemed to be a little unhappy, "You two were laughing so happily."
Lv Yuqing smiled. Her daughter's exquisite facial features looked very charming under the dim yellow light.
"We were just chatting casually."
Lv Yuqing replied, "Chen Hansheng is very talkative. I asked him how his business was going and if there were any difficulties."
"Oh ~"
Xiao Rongyu responded and got out of bed to drink the nutritious soup. Lv Yuqing watched quietly from the side, her eyes full of motherly love.
After Little Yu 'er finished drinking, Lv Yuqing habitually pulled out a tissue to help her daughter wipe her mouth.
Xiao Rongyu, on the other hand, felt embarrassed. She took the tissue and said, "I'm going to be a mother soon. You're still treating me like a child."
"No matter how old you are, you're still a child in Daddy and Mommy's hearts."
Lv Yuqing massaged Little Yu 'er's shoulders and helped her relax her muscles and bones. Lv Yuqing had only recently learned how to do this so that Little Yu' er's body and mind could be more relaxed.
Xiao Rongyu also leaned against her mother. In the quiet night, she closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth between mother and daughter.
"Little Yu 'er ~"
After a while, Lv Yuqing broke the silence, "Hansheng is here. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Xiao Rongyu's shoulders obviously stiffened, but she didn't say anything.
"That's Mommy's idea."
Lv Yuqing didn't think it was a big deal. While massaging her shoulders, she continued, "You have to ask clearly what's going on between Chen Hansheng and Shen Youchu now …"
"How do you know about Shen Youchu?"
Xiao Rongyu interrupted in surprise.
"The Internet is so advanced nowadays. It's not strange that I know."
Lv Yuqing patted Xiao Rongyu's head, "Mommy is not a middle-aged woman like your Aunt Liang. Mommy knows how to surf the Internet and I even know about the competition between Nutshell Electronics and Samsung."
Xiao Rongyu nodded. Aunt Liang didn't seem to have a QQ account, but her mother often forwarded some articles in QQ space.
"He said that he broke up with Shen Youchu."
Little Yu 'er raised her head, "I don't believe him completely. He just likes to lie."
"After Mommy knew about it, she was very angry at first. She even called your father to discuss it. We all thought that we shouldn't give Chen Hansheng any chance. It was right to break up with him."
Lv Yuqing stroked her daughter's long hair, paused, and said, "But you are pregnant. This situation is different. If you still have doubts, we can set up a probation period. If we find that Chen Hansheng has changed for the better during the probation period, we will forgive him this time for Little Yu 'er's sake."
"What if there is an accident during the probation period?"
Xiao Rongyu asked.
"Then Mommy and Daddy will completely support your decision. From now on, we will cut off all contact with Chen Hansheng and not admit that he is Little Yu 'er's father."
Lv Yuqing glanced at Chen Hansheng's room downstairs and said decisively.
Xiao Rongyu fell silent again. She thought so last time. She even planned to hide the news of her pregnancy from Chen Hansheng.
Now Chen Hansheng knew the truth. Shen Youchu also broke up with him because of the Samsung incident. Should she let Chen Hansheng enter the probation period for Little Yu 'er's sake, as her mother said?
"Or?"
Lv Yuqing saw that Little Yu 'er was still hesitating, so she made another suggestion, "It should not be difficult to find Shen Youchu's contact information. I will call and ask in person. Did she break up with Chen Hansheng?"
"No."
Little Yu 'er shook her head. If they really broke up, it would definitely hurt Shen Youchu again if she asked like this.
Xiao Rongyu and Shen Youchu "knew each other" when they were freshmen. Although they did not have any friendship and could even be said to be hostile, Xiao Rongyu could see from the "SARS quarantine incident" that Shen Youchu was a kind and simple girl.
Since Xiao Rongyu refused, Lv Yuqing did not insist. In fact, it did not matter to her. Her daughter was everything.
"If you agree to the probation, we will consider going back to China in a few days. We can take care of the fetus while doing the probation."
Lv Yuqing said with some disdain, "In the United States, we have to make an appointment several days in advance. It is really inconvenient. In China, we can easily register an expert."
Xiao Rongyu's eyes flashed. She still did not respond to this proposal.
"And your father."
Lv Yuqing added another bargaining chip, "Right now, he is unable to go abroad. He misses you so much that he is going crazy."
Right now, video chat was still not possible on QQ, but MSN was still possible. However, the work and rest schedule was different in China and abroad. When Xiao Hongwei was free, Little Yu 'er was resting. This made the "daughter's slave" and "grandfather's slave" Old Xiao very anxious.
"I am going to brush my teeth."
Little Yu 'er skipped this topic and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, wash her face and prepare to rest.
Looking at her daughter's back view, Lv Yuqing thought to herself that Chen Hansheng came over this time to bring some good news. Little Yu 'er did not object, which meant that they would be able to go back to China very soon.
… …
The next morning, Chen Hansheng woke up from his sleep. The fatigue from yesterday's journey had already subsided.
After opening his eyes, he saw that there were a few pots of green plants outside the window. The morning dew in the morning condensed on the green leaves. The green leaves were round, shiny, and very beautiful.
A gust of wind blew, and the morning dew was like sitting on a slide, sliding down along the branches and leaves. With a "bang" sound, the morning dew fell onto the windowsill and turned into small water droplets.
This appearance was just like a big water droplet giving birth to a bunch of fat babies.
"Lululu … …"
Chen Hansheng shook his head heavily. Ever since he knew that Little Yu 'er was pregnant, everything he saw would be in the direction of "fat babies".
After waking up, Xiao Rongyu was already downstairs. Although she still did not talk to Chen Hansheng, she was already able to eat at the same table as him.
After eating, because the international marriage lawsuit had already ended, there was no longer any busy work here. However, Professor Sun was still very strict. He took out a law book and taught Xiao Rongyu.
Today, Chen Hansheng had something to deal with. Last time, he used 1 million USD to win the lawsuit, but there was still a balance to be settled, so he asked Ms. Wu's ex-husband, Miller, to take the balance.
When Miller came over, Professor Sun hated this person very much. Naturally, he would not help to translate. Lv Yuqing also did not understand English, so in the end, Xiao Rongyu could only do it.
After Chen Hansheng informed the little secretary that the transfer was successful, the transaction also ended. Both parties got what they wanted.
Miller even stretched out his hand in a friendly manner. Chen Hansheng was also in a relaxed mood. When shaking hands, he asked casually, "Why are you gay? I'm quite curious."
Xiao Rongyu blushed. She did not intend to translate this kind of boring nonsense. However, Chen Hansheng was very interested and even looked at her eagerly. Little Yu 'er could only shake her head and do as he said.
"Maybe it's because of my father's influence."
Unexpectedly, Miller did not avoid this topic at all. He said very frankly, "He is also gay."
After saying that, Miller added, "My older brother is also gay."
"Awesome."
Chen Hansheng could not help but smacked his lips, "It seems that no one in your family likes women."
"Yes."
Miller shrugged his shoulders, "My younger sister likes women."
