"Why don't we meet again?"
"What did I do wrong again?"
"Just tell me, I'll change, okay? Or if there's anything on me that makes you unhappy, I'll just chop it off and throw it away!"
… ….
In the living room of the apartment, Chen Hansheng heard Xiao Rongyu say "never meet again" and then growled in a low voice.
"Calm down first and listen to what I have to say."
Xiao Rongyu was unusually calm this time. The doctor said that crying would affect the baby, so she tried her best not to cry. In short, she did everything for Little Yu 'er.
"I can't calm down!"
Chen Hansheng became a hot-tempered fool, and he didn't look like a billionaire at all.
This was because he felt too wronged. During this period of time, other than in the office, he was in the riverside apartment. He never went to find Shen Youchu in private. Even when he signed up for A Ning Primary School, they only met once, but they didn't even say a word.
However, Little Yu 'er actually wanted to break up with him. Even if it was Jianye in April, Chen Hansheng couldn't help but feel cold all over.
Can this society still be good? Returning prodigals, how do you live to be satisfied? This country is full of oppression and contempt for us. When will boys who have made mistakes be able to stand up for themselves?
After acting like this for a few minutes, Little Yu 'er still didn't comfort Chen Hansheng. On the contrary, she just sat silently on the side, looking at Chen Hansheng as if she was watching a play.
"Is there really a problem?"
Chen Hansheng's heart skipped a beat, and he was inexplicably a little panicked.
Or was it because his acting skills had deteriorated?
After all, there was a professional term in acting for this kind of anger without any sense of immersion. It was very demanding for actors. Chen Hansheng, who didn't come from an acting school and purely relied on real life to hone himself, might still make some mistakes.
In the end, Chen Hansheng wiped his face and sniffed to show that he was really agitated just now. Then he asked in a deep voice, "Give me a reason."
"Shen Youchu is pregnant."
Although Xiao Rongyu tried her best to speak in the calmest tone, in a place where Chen Hansheng couldn't see, Little Yu'er's thumbnail had already dug deep into her index finger joint.
"Shen Youchu is pregnant?"
Chen Hansheng's reaction speed was far better than Hu Linyu's when she heard the news for the first time.
He first judged whether this was the last test. Only by successfully passing it would the probation period truly come to an end.
However, this was quickly overturned. Little Fishy was a mother. She wouldn't use something like a "child" to test her.
Did that mean that Shen Youchu was really pregnant?
Damn, wasn't this too sudden? Little Yu 'er was just about to clear the stage, yet another "pleasant surprise" came.
God, why do you always have to torture a good person like me!
"Ahem …"
Chen Hansheng thought for a while. He decided to appease Xiao Rongyu first, and then go to Shen Youchu to confirm the truth.
"This news …"
Chen Hansheng was just about to say that he didn't know. Maybe it was a misunderstanding, but Little Yu 'er was experienced now. She directly interrupted, "Hu Linyu came to my office this morning and admitted that she is Shen Youchu's friend. It shouldn't be a lie."
"F * ck!"
Chen Hansheng's heart twitched fiercely. Why wasn't he the first to know this kind of thing?
What was more unbearable was that the news of Xiao Rongyu's pregnancy was actually first told to Shen Youchu by Bian Shishi, and then Shen Youchu passed it to him.
The news of Shen Youchu's pregnancy was also first told to Xiao Rongyu by Hu Linyu, and then Xiao Rongyu passed it to him.
Damn it, if you have the ability to have a child, you can have one yourself. Why do you always have to get involved in our "family of five"?
Therefore, Chen Hansheng was very passive every time. In the end, he had to listen to others.
Now, he was observing Xiao Rongyu's expression.
Perhaps difficulties could really toughen a person's heart. Little Yu 'er had grown a lot. When she was a freshman at Jiangling University, she had a conflict with her roommates.
However, after the first Shuraba, she learned to get along with others when she transferred to Xianning University. She also made a good friend with similar personalities and habits.
Last Christmas, during the second Shuraba, Little Yu 'er had an emotional breakdown. Unexpectedly, a few months later, she could "calmly" tell Chen Hansheng, "Shen Youchu is pregnant."
"Xiao Chen, I actually only have one wish."
Looking at the silent Chen Hansheng, Xiao Rongyu continued, "As long as Little Yu 'er can grow up healthy, strong, and happy, I don't want her to know that she has a half-sibling. This will make Little Yu' er very troubled, so don't come over in the future."
"Take it that I'm begging you."
Xiao Rongyu's tone was sad but firm. "Give me and the baby some privacy."
"Don't say that."
Chen Hansheng felt very uncomfortable when he heard this. Originally, he thought that with his thick skin, he could do whatever he wanted in this world. He didn't expect Little Yu 'er to become a weakness.
"I'm not joking with you, Xiao Chen."
Xiao Rongyu shook her head. "I originally planned to raise the baby alone. I didn't expect Shishi to tell you everything. This was not part of my plan."
"You plan to go abroad again?"
Chen Hansheng was shocked.
Xiao Rongyu turned her head and didn't answer. Her meaning was very clear. Regardless of whether she went abroad or not, she didn't want to reveal it.
It seemed that this time, she was determined not to let Chen Hansheng and Little Yu 'er have any contact.
However, Chen Hansheng also had another idea. Since Xiao Rongyu and Shen Youchu both had a baby, then maybe in the future, he could "become a father because of his daughter" and achieve "double benefits".
Thinking of this, Chen Hansheng's expression relaxed a little.
Xiao Rongyu seemed to have seen through Chen Hansheng's thoughts. At the end of this conversation, she said clearly, "Xiao Chen, don't think too much. I will never accept Shen Youchu. I will never accept her!"
After saying that, Xiao Rongyu directly walked into the bedroom, leaving Chen Hansheng alone in the living room in a daze. He stared at the flowers on the coffee table in a daze and didn't say anything.
"F * ck, am I sending a wreath to myself?"
… ….
Not long after, a door in the bedroom opened. Liang Meijuan walked out with a coat draped over her shoulders.
"You and Little Yu 'er are whispering in the living room. What are you two talking about?"
Liang Meijuan thought that her son's probation period was over. She even said happily, "Yesterday, we accompanied Little Yu 'er to do an ultrasound. Little Yu' er is super cute. She raised her little fist and slept."
"Based on your and Little Yu 'er's conditions, I think you must have a second child."
Empress Dowager Liang nagged, "One baby is too lonely. Your father is a cadre, so when we were young, we didn't dare to have more children. Otherwise, we would lose our jobs. You and Little Yu 'er don't have this restriction. You can have another Little Yu' er to accompany Little Yu 'er."
Liang Meijuan didn't mind the awkwardness. She imagined two chubby babies, one on the left and one on the right. She couldn't help but reveal a "granny" smile on her face.
"Mom …"
Chen Hansheng's mouth moved.
"What's wrong?"
Liang Meijuan noticed that her son's expression wasn't right. He was hesitant, as if there was something that he couldn't say.
"… It's nothing," Gu Ning said.
Chen Hansheng thought for a while, but in the end, he didn't tell the truth here. He planned to go to Jingshan District first to confirm the news of his pregnancy.
"Don't be absent-minded all day."
Liang Meijuan thought that Chen Hansheng was impatient again. She didn't need to be polite with her son. "Listen to us elders. The second child can't be delayed for too long. It's best if the two babies are about the same age so that they can play together."
"I still have something to do in the office. I'm leaving."
Chen Hansheng didn't dare to sit anymore. He felt that Empress Dowager Liang's unintentional words were like darts, hitting his heart.
… ….
On the way from the riverside condominium to Tianjing Mountain District, Chen Hansheng was still frowning. Little Yu 'er had clearly expressed that she would never accept Shen Youchu. He couldn't think of a solution to this problem at the moment.
Besides, if Old Xiao and Aunt Lu knew about it, the relationship between the two families would be broken again.
Ding! Ding!
At this moment, Nie Xiaoyu suddenly called.
Chen Hansheng wasn't in the mood to answer the call, but he thought that it might be an emergency at the company, so he could only pick up the phone reluctantly. "Hello, what's wrong?"
The little secretary was shocked by Chen Hansheng's stiff tone. She wondered who made him angry again. She explained, "Director Chen, there's an internet company that was just established last December. They know that you're the boss behind the seed capital from Long Jiu You, and they've also decided to invest in the project 'Dance Troupe', so they want to come over for financing. Do you have time to meet them?"
Chen Hansheng did invest 3 million USD when Long Jiu You was short of money. He never cared about the operation of the company and let the management of Long Jiu You operate independently.
Therefore, the company had a very good reputation. After all, many angel investors felt that they were the boss as long as they paid for it, so they gave a lot of opinions about the operation of the company.
However, Chen Hansheng wasn't in the mood to care about this now. He couldn't help scolding the little secretary. "You're brainless. Long Jiu You is a profitable project, so I invested in it. I won't agree to any Tom, Dick, or Harry's financing!"
"Oh!"
The little secretary was a little unhappy. She said, "I just think that they're sincere, and the company's name is interesting. It's called 58 Tongcheng, so I called you to ask about it."
"Oh, I see."
Chen Hansheng was silent for a moment. "Then I'll give you some face. I'll meet them later. Take them to the conference room first and let them have a seat to temper their temper."
This was a common trick used by angel investors. For example, when they had time, they would ask the other party to meet them for two hours first, or they would directly say, "I only have 10 minutes, and you have to tell me the reason why I want to meet you in 10 minutes."
The purpose was to create a sense of superiority, so that they could get more shares and benefits in the negotiation.
Nie Xiaoyu didn't know the scale of 58 Tongcheng's development in the future, but she thought that the company's name was very interesting. It sounded like "Nutshell" or "Alibaba".
However, when she heard that Director Chen was only willing to meet them for her sake, Nie Xiaoyu immediately said, "Please don't do that for my sake. If you don't want to meet them, I'll directly turn them down."
"No way!"
Chen Hansheng said angrily, "I'm giving them face. How can you turn them down?"
"Then if your investment fails, don't be angry with me."
The little secretary warned Chen Hansheng in advance.
"Humph!"
Chen Hansheng snorted and hung up the phone. It was impossible for him to lose money.
Chen Hansheng's career consisted of three lines: physical, online, and investment. Nutshell Electronics' mobile phones and MP4s were doing very well, and Nutshell's community, shopping malls, and fast streaming were becoming more and more influential. It was just that his angel investments were stagnant.
Kong Jing still thought that Chen Hansheng didn't have the energy to investigate. In fact, Chen Hansheng only invested in profitable projects. He wasn't greedy. He didn't interfere in the operation of the company, and he wouldn't even fight for the controlling shares. Jiuyou's 10% dividend was the same for other financing companies.
Although 10% of shares wasn't a lot, and it could be diluted easily, as long as Nutshell Electronics continued to grow, no idiot would do that.
In addition, with the financing of 58 companies in the same city, more and more creative internet companies began to appear, such as Meituan, Are You Hungry, Didi Taxi, Douyu Live Streaming …
This was a brand new era, and it was also the era where housing prices began to soar. However, it was certain that seed capital had a very wide space to grow, and it would appear vaguely behind these new companies.
If he didn't have the conversation with Xiao Rongyu just now, Chen Hansheng would probably be very happy. If he invested a few million USD now, he could exchange it for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of USD in the future. However, he still felt depressed at the moment.
"Damn it, this is too strange."
Chen Hansheng had a similar feeling before. The bigger the problem in his relationship, the smoother his career would be. It was especially obvious today. He had just been "kicked" by Little Yu 'er at noon, and 58 companies in the same city immediately came to "comfort" him.
"Will there be a day when I will be so poor that I only have money left? Will I become the richest man after losing my love?"
When he arrived at the ground floor of Tianjing Mountain, Chen Hansheng remembered that he was going to be a father again, and his hands and feet trembled.
After knocking on the door, little Ah Ning ran over to open the door. Seeing that Chen Hansheng was back, Ah Ning's face changed from surprise to surprise, and then she felt wronged. She called out pitifully, "Brother …"
Chen Hansheng felt sorry for the little girl, and carried her up gently. "Don't cry, where's sister?"
"Sister is in the bedroom, and so is Sister Lin Yu."
Ah Ning got close to Chen Hansheng's ear and said sadly, "Brother, sister has been crying this morning."
"It's okay."
Chen Hansheng wiped the little girl's tears. "You just need to study hard. Don't worry about adult things. Anyway, remember, neither of us will leave you."
After comforting Ah Ning, Chen Hansheng greeted his mother-in-law again. His mother-in-law lowered her eyelids and didn't say anything. She was like an "outsider" as usual.
However, when Chen Hansheng went into the bedroom to look for Shen Youchu, his mother-in-law walked out of her room and quietly sat on the sofa in the living room with the help of a walking stick.
She seemed to be watching TV, but also seemed to be in a daze.
"Why are you here?"
In the bedroom, Shen Youchu was sitting on the bed. Her originally innocent peach blossom eyes were already red and swollen. Hu Linyu bared her teeth and argued with Chen Hansheng.
Seeing Hu Linyu's attitude, Chen Hansheng really wanted to use "Fierce Wind Breath Slash + Noxus Guillotine" to directly send this idiot away.
However, just like Bian Shishi, Hu Linyu didn't have to offend him. When she did this, she just wanted to help Shen Youchu vent her anger and fight for justice.
"I don't want to talk to an idiot like you."
Chen Hansheng said to Xiao Hu with disdain, and then sat beside Shen Youchu. He was thinking about how to say it in his heart, but he didn't expect to receive another phone call.
It was Cao Jiande, the director of Nutshell. He went to India to talk about cooperation these two days. At that time, he was blackmailed by Nie Xiaoyu into giving him a figurine. Now he should be calling to report the result to Chen Hansheng.
"Do something, Old Cao. Do something."
Chen Hansheng prayed in his heart that it couldn't be good news about business. He was a little scared now.
Every time he achieved success in his business, he would inevitably be hurt emotionally. Chen Hansheng hoped that Cao Jiande and the Indian businessman's distribution talks would fail. It would be better if they had a fight, which might help their relationship.
However, as soon as the phone was connected, Cao Jiande's hearty laughter came from the receiver. "Chairman Chen, because the response of the last order in the Indian market is very good, now they are in great demand. This time I negotiated a business deal of 800 million yuan …"
Before Cao Jiande could finish his words, Chen Hansheng hung up the phone. He was still wondering whether the signal was bad.
"Phew …"
Chen Hansheng took a deep breath. He thought to himself that this was metaphysics, metaphysics without any scientific basis.
Unexpectedly, when he sat down again, Shen Youchu's peach blossom eyes were filled with tears. "Xiao Chen, I just heard from Linyu that she went to find Xiao Rongyu. It's not right."
"Go back and apologize to Xiao Rongyu, then manage the family well and take good care of the baby."
Although Shen Youchu's voice was soft and weak, and even at this time she was thinking about Chen Hansheng's happiness, she also expressed her refusal. "Let's not meet again in the future."
"What do you mean?"
Chen Hansheng blinked his eyes. "I was kicked again?"
