My father was the CEO of a certain group, and one time when he was drunk, my mother had me.
From then on, I became my mother’s handle to blackmail my father, and also my father’s shady daughter
.
Therefore, I have been well versed in observing words and expressions and people’s hearts since I was a child.
Now as an adult, it is even more handy to use this skill to seduce men.
As long as there is no man I like who doesn’t run around me, even my sister’s fiance
is easy to get.
I’m an illegitimate daughter. Yes, my mother is the mistress that everyone shouts to beat. An intern
in a hotel met my father, the CEO of a group company.
It is said that my father was drunk that night, and my mother became a dogskin
plaster that he could not get rid of after the spring night.
When my mother was young and beautiful, men could not refuse to take the initiative to paste up Yanfu
.
My dad thinks well, and it doesn’t take much to spend a little money to raise a little lover. Who would have thought that my
mother was ambitious. In order to force the palace to ascend, she secretly got pregnant. Seeing that she failed to ascend, she gave birth to me by crying
, making trouble and hanging herself.
I was born a month prematurely because my mother heard that my father’s wife had given birth and rushed to the hospital for a caesarean section. Just after the anesthetic, she called my father to force him to claim me.
As a result, my dad turned off his phone.
To tell you the truth, I don’t hate my dad at all. Anyone who meets such a worry-free woman would like to put on the pants he took off at the beginning.
Unfortunately, because of me, he can’t get rid of my mother. My mother said that if he dared to dump us, she would jump off the roof of the 29th floor of his company with me in her arms. My mother has always been a person who dares to practice and dare to say and do when it comes to
seeking death. At least the momentum has been created, and the effect is not bad.
My father put us in a small apartment and gave us some living expenses every month. My mother gave our mother and daughter a place to live by being tough and shameless.
My earliest memory of my father is that my mother killed him for a month, forcing my father to show up reluctantly in our small apartment with three bottles of sleeping pills and two wristcuts.
He put down several stacks of money impatiently. “Don’t you just want money?”? Tell my secretary not to call me if you have nothing to do.
My mother began to bring up the past, and the shrill sound of the train whistle went straight to the roof. “Hsieh Hai-ming, did your conscience get eaten by a dog?”
My father, who was tired of hearing her crying, frowned and said, “Today is Nini’s birthday. I have to go back right away.”
Nini is Xie Xinni, the daughter of him and his wife, who was born on the same day of the same year as me.
My mother grabbed me and held me up to my father like a flag. “You only care about your wife and children at
home. You’ve forgotten that this is your own flesh and blood!”! For so many years,
you haven’t even looked at her. She’s your own seed, and her last name is Hsieh!
My father was ready to leave with a livid face, but my mother hugged his thigh. Like Xianglinsao
, he complained about his grievances over the years. He was abandoned by my father and became a single mother
, which ruined his life. A handful of snot and tears rubbed against his pants.
Nobody cares about me as a tool man.
I went to the coffee table, looked at the piles of money, looked up and asked my dad, “Are you rich
?”
My father hesitated for a moment and nodded unnaturally.
I picked up the money, stood on tiptoe and put it in his hand. “I eat very little
. I don’t need so much money.”. Can you stay with me for a few minutes?
I saw the surprise and shock in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment and sat tensely on the
sofa.
I took out a torn pamphlet, an advertisement from the supermarket, with
cartoon characters and simple stories on it.
I climbed onto the couch, sat down next to him, and shoved the album into his hand. Without the slightest attempt to
please, it is as natural as every child who expects his father to love him: “Can you tell me a
story?” He did read a short paragraph in a dry way. I listened carefully and slowly leaned on his
arm. When
he left, I stopped him, took a piece of cake
from the table, and solemnly put it in his hand. “Is it your birthday, too?”
He suddenly realized.
I nodded shyly.
But he was a little embarrassed. He rubbed his hands and said, “I came in a hurry, and I didn’t bring you any
gifts.” With a big smile,
I waved the picture album in my hand. “I’ve already received the best birthday present
.”
The next day, I received a doll taller than me. I was five years old
that year.
Some gifts are innate, such as observing words and expressions, such as insight into people’s hearts.
From then on, my father would come once or twice a month, and he would not talk to my mother, but
he would tell me a story and chat with me, and occasionally he would pick me up and take me out for a meal.
My mother is also a cruel person, and she got my father drunk again on a rainy night. When my dad woke up from my mom’s bed
the next day, he was devastated.
So it is possible for a person to fall twice in the same place.
Ten months later, my brother was born. The first time I saw this wrinkled little guy, I thought he was ugly.
His little toothless mouth was red with tears. I put out a finger and touched his cheek. He stopped crying at once, turned his head and grabbed my finger and sucked it hard.
Because of my brother, my father changed us to a bigger apartment, and the monthly living expenses doubled, and the conditions were much better than before.
My mother held my brother in her arms and rekindled her lofty aspirations. While kissing her brother’s little face,
she showed off to me, “The Tigress in your father’s family gave birth to a girl named Hsieh Hsin-ni.”. I have the ability to give birth to a man with a handle. For your younger brother, your father would have to put me in front of that Tigress.
As it turned out, she thought too much again.
My father had no intention of divorcing and marrying her at all. He even warned her ferociously, “Wang Yuyan, be honest with me.”. If you dare to put this matter in front of Du Lan, I will make you suffer. Don’t you want to die all day? Then die before it is too late.
Du Lan is my father’s wife. Later, I learned that my father made a fortune on his father-in-law’s family, so he could not divorce.
My mother shoved my little brother into my arms, screaming and banging her head into my father’s stomach. “I’m not going to live,” she said. “You can just kill a few of us.”
My brother was so frightened that he burst into tears. I held him tightly and looked coldly at the men and women in front of me.
If a person can choose his parents, I will not choose them.
The melee ended with my mom with a black eye and my dad with a bloody face.
Since then, my mother has stopped. She finally understood that my father would never marry her, even if she had a son.
After that, my mother no longer regards my father as her goal in life. In her words, “I’m over it. I don’t have any status.”. You two are your father’s seed, and he can’t deny it. From now on I’ll eat and drink from him, and that bastard’s money won’t be wasted.
She began to move to the mahjong table, one night after another in her square city.
She no longer pays attention to her appearance and figure. Several times when I went to the place where she played cards, I saw her shouting, “Yao Ji, Hong Zhong..” While stuffing his mouth full of roast goose and rice noodles. Since elementary school,
I have had no choice but to take care of my brother. The first time a child opens his mouth to call his father or mother, the first thing he will say is “sister.”. When other children cry, they look for their parents. When my brother cries, he only looks for me.
I used to hate this little burden, because he didn’t have a childhood, and I couldn’t go out to play like other children. I have to go home after school. My mother has to go to play cards. If I don’t
come back, she will lock my brother, who is two or three years old, at home alone and let him cry until his voice is hoarse and his excrement and urine are all over him.
Until one day, when it was raining heavily outside, my mother went to play cards and didn’t come back. I listened to the thunder outside and shivered in the quilt. I have been afraid of hearing thunder since I was a child, and I always feel that the sound is like the roar of a wild animal, which will devour me at any time.
A small figure crawled onto my bed in the dark and stuffed his soft little body into my arms. Like countless times I had coaxed him to sleep, he patted me on the back and said, “I’m not afraid, my sister is not afraid. Xuanxuan is here. Xuanxuan protects my sister.”
I cried and held him in my arms. My brother was five years old
that year, and he made me understand the meaning of brothers.
When Xuanxuan was twelve years old, I was admitted to the finance department of Shanghai FD University. The new life is full of hope and makes me yearn for it. The only thing
I can’t rest assured is Xuanxuan, who lives with people like my mother, and he doesn’t even have three meals a day.
Hsuan-hsuan had just been admitted to middle school and had not yet reached puberty. She was still a round child, but she comforted me like a little adult, saying, “Sister, you can rest assured that if you go to Shanghai, I can take care of myself, and I can also take care of my mother.”
With the money I earned from my summer job, I hired an aunt to cook for my family, and then I went to Shanghai with ten thousand worries.
College life is rich and full, and I feel that I have lived for 18 years, and for the first time I have lived like a human being. No one
here knows the identity of my illegitimate daughter, and no one will laugh at and bully me. I don’t have to face a mother who is drunk at the card table and a father who has no sense of responsibility.
However, less than a month after I left, Du Lan finally knew our existence. Keeping her in the dark for so many years is not because my dad hid it so well, but because he really didn’t care about us and let us grow like weeds.
Thanks to my mother, my unreliable mother lost a lot of money playing mahjong and asked my father not to give it to her. She actually went to find my father’s wife Du Lan.
Du Lan condescended to the apartment we lived in and offered to give my mother one hundred thousand yuan, so that she could take Xuanxuan as far as possible.
My mother disliked the lack of money and shouted, “One hundred thousand?”? Where are you sending the beggar? I gave birth to two children for Lao Xie, and the second is a son. What happened to the bastard? Don’t think I don’t understand. Even illegitimate children have the right to inherit. Xuanxuan will inherit the old Hsieh family business in the future.
Du Lan stood up and walked away with a sneer.
I don’t know what she did to my dad when she went back. When she came to my house again, she offered to give my mother 500,000 yuan on the condition that she would pick up Xuanxuan.
My mother was cornered by creditors, and her eyes were shining when she saw the 500,000 yuan.
When I knew the news and wanted to stop it, it was too late. Xuanxuan was brought back to her and my father’s home by Du Lan.
I asked my mother on the phone, “Xuanxuan is only twelve years old, and you let him live under the shelter of others.”. If you put yourself in Tu Lan’s shoes, why would she be nice to her husband’s illegitimate child?
My mother paid off the debt with ease. “Why shouldn’t she be nice to Xuanxuan?”? Xuanxuan is your father’s son, the only male in Lao Xie’s family. Your brother went to enjoy a happy life with your father. He lived in the big house and had a nanny to take care of him all day. Don’t be jealous, because you are a girl? If you can’t carry on the family line, of course they don’t want you. When your brother gets a firm foothold in the Xie family, we two can follow suit. Can he ignore you, his own sister, when he’s rich?
I was worried. “You go and fetch Hsuan-hsuan right away, and take him with you even if you want to eat bran and pharynx vegetables!”
My mother carried forward her usual Lao Lai spirit, “Take it back?”? Pick it up and send it to you? I told you not to ruin your brother’s future. He’s with your father. That’s your real father. I have raised your brother and sister for more than ten years, and it’s your father’s turn to take over. Besides, the five hundred thousand yuan has been spent by my mother. I’m going to ask for your brother. What if he wants money? Are you paying half a million yuan?
I snapped off the phone in anger. After calming down
a little, I grabbed the phone and called my dad again, asking him what was going on and what Du Lan was going to do.
My father complained to me, “It’s not that stupid woman, Wang Yuyan, who went to ask Du Lan for money. That’s how Du Lan knew about your existence.”. I’m bored to death by this thing these days. Du Lan to pick up Xuan Xuan to the front is her magnanimity, regardless of the past. What can I say? It’s a good thing to take this opportunity to let Hsuan-hsuan recognize his ancestors. He’s my son anyway.
It turned out that my father had the same idea, and he was grateful for Du Lan’s magnanimity. At
this point, I could only judge the hour and size up the situation to suppress the anxiety in my heart. I softened my voice and advised my father, “Dad, since Xuanxuan is by your side, you should take care of him more.”. Xuanxuan is only twelve years old, which is the age most in need of his father’s guidance. You are so successful, and under your education, he will certainly grow into a person as excellent as you. I almost threw up when I said
that. But after more than ten years of father and daughter, I am too aware of my father’s inflated vanity, and he especially enjoys the adoration and flattery of others.
I am far away from Shanghai, I can only hope that my father can be on Xuanxuan, do not let Xuanxuan be bullied by Du Lan and Xie Xinni.
I called Xuanxuan every day, and at first he would chatter to me about his inadaptability to his new home. Aunt Du keeps a straight face all day, and sister Nini doesn’t like him either. His activities were confined to his own room.
Later, Xuanxuan’s words became less and less, saying only that he was very good and that the food in his new home was very delicious.
One day on the phone, Xuanxuan suddenly said to me, “Sister, I want to go home. I don’t want to live here anymore.”. I can cook for myself. I can make Fried Rice with Egg and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. When I
heard this, I was so distressed that I could only promise him with tears, “Xuanxuan, give my sister four years.”. When my sister finishes school, I will take you to my side.
Xuanxuan was silent for a moment. “I’ll wait for you, sister,” he whispered.
A few days later, when I was working in KFC, my mother called me, “Yanyan, it’s not good. Your brother has an accident.” There was a buzzing sound in
my head, and I felt completely silly. All I could hear in my ears was her self-pitying cry, “How can I have such a hard life? I haven’t enjoyed my son’s happiness yet. He’s gone like this. I’ve raised him for 12 years in vain..” It took
me ten minutes to understand what she was talking about. My brother Xuanxuan ate an almond pie at my father’s house. He was allergic and died.
When Xuanxuan was two years old, I fed him peanut paste, and soon he had a rash all over his body and his little face was swollen. I was so scared that I called my mother back from the card table and sent Xuanxuan to the hospital. After the
doctor’s examination, he said that Xuanxuan was allergic to nuts. Fortunately, he was sent early and late, which would be life-threatening. Laryngeal edema caused by allergies would lead to asphyxia.
Since then, Xuanxuan has eliminated nuts from her diet.
Xuanxuan is allergic to nuts, and my father and mother are very clear about it. Under my repeated orders, Xuanxuan himself was also very careful.
In fact, as he grows up, it’s not a big problem to touch a little occasionally. I can’t imagine how much he ate to cause such a severe allergy.
The phone slipped from my hand, I held the table hard to keep myself from falling, and the sharp pain spread from my heart to my whole body.
The brother who would comfort me when it thundered, the brother who said he would wait for me, did not wait for me to receive him after all.
Six years later, when I returned to the city, I had completed my undergraduate and graduate studies at FD University.
In the past six years, I went to school in a foreign country, and the tuition was earned by working on my own. I haven’t been back, and I haven’t contacted any of them. Because I dare not.
Xuanxuan is like a scar on my heart, before I am fully fledged, I dare not uncover that scar, I am afraid I can not help it.
My mother still lives in the old apartment. In fact, she is only in her forties, but her life of staying up late playing cards all the year round and not being self-disciplined makes her look fat and old, and the beauty of her youth has long disappeared.
She opened the door and saw that it was me. She was stunned for a full minute. Then she wiped away her tears. “Dead girl, do you still know to come back?”? You remember you have a mother! Your brother has a better conscience than you. If he were still here..
“He died six years ago.” I interrupted her coldly. When I walked into the apartment
again, I felt that things had changed.
My mother wiped away her tears and warmly beckoned me to sit down. “Just come back, just come back.”. You’ve been going to school for so many years, and now you’re doing well. I’ve finally made it through, and I’m still counting on you to retire.
I looked at the sofa full of dirty clothes, sat down on the chair in front of the dining table, and called my mother, who was going to pour tea, “Don’t be busy.”. I came here to ask you a question. When you sent Xuanxuan away, did you tell Du Lan that Xuanxuan was allergic to nuts?
“Why didn’t you say?” My mother opened her eyes wide. “I told him that the child was allergic to nuts, and that he couldn’t touch any peanuts or cashews as long as they were in the shell.”. Du Lan promised well. Besides, Hsuan-hsuan was twelve years old, and he knew his own problems, so he was always very careful.
I said nothing more, ignoring my mother’s endless detainment, and left the former home, taking only a picture of Xuanxuan on the table, which I took for him on his twelfth birthday. In the photo, he smiled with curved eyes and showed a mouthful of small white teeth. I have
this picture, too. I just don’t want to leave him in that apartment anymore.
I asked my dad to meet me in a coffee shop, but he hasn’t changed much. He’s still the same. Men are really more resistant to aging.
“It was an accident.” After my father sat down, he said to me in a hurry, as if to prove his innocence, “I told Sister Zhang, who cooks at home, that Xuanxuan can’t eat nuts.”. As a result, Sister Zhang made almond pie and put it on the table, forgetting to tell Xuanxuan that there were almonds in it. Xuanxuan picked up the almond pie and ate it. The next morning, when Sister Chang went to his room to wake him up, she found..
What about you? Didn’t you notice anything strange about him the night before? I couldn’t help asking him.
My father avoided my eyes. “That night I had a dinner party outside and didn’t eat at home.”. I heard from your Aunt Du that Xuanxuan didn’t have any other reaction after dinner except for a little rash on his face. He didn’t say he felt uncomfortable and went back to bed.
I stirred the black coffee in front of me with a spoon, but my heart twitched fiercely, as if it was clenched into a ball by a big hand. How bad is it
to suffocate to death? Did Xuanxuan struggle alone all night? Did he ask an adult for help? Did he ever try to call my sister?
These six years I dare not think, dare not touch, deliberately to avoid the problem at the moment like a flood will drown me.
“After the incident, Tu Lan immediately fired Sister Chang.” My dad stressed again, “It was really an accident.”. Your aunt Du and sister Nini like Xuanxuan very much. When Hsuan-hsuan left, Nini cried the most.
I took a sip of coffee, and my mouth was full of bitterness.
Trying to suppress the surge in my heart, I put on a thoughtful expression and said, “Dad, let’s not talk about the past. We’re both sad.”
My dad obviously breathed a sigh of relief. “Okay, okay, okay. Don’t mention it.”. By the way, what are your plans for coming back this time?
I smiled at my dad. “I studied financial management.”. I want to join your company.
5
“This..” My father looked embarrassed.
I sighed faintly, “Xuanxuan used to tell me that he spent too little time with you.”. He adores you, but you’re always so busy. Now that he is gone, I want to be with you and be filial to him. And you are so successful in your career, and you dominate the whole city of X, so I want to learn more from you.
Seeing my father’s relaxed expression, I followed up the victory by saying, “I intend to start as an ordinary employee at the grass-roots level, and I will never act recklessly under your banner and make you lose face.”. I’ll tell the company that my surname is Wang and my name is Wang Hsin-yan, and I won’t cause you any trouble.
My father could not shirk it again, but he did not arrange me into the head office of Lixin Group as I wished. Instead, I was secretly assigned to a subordinate venture capital company, starting from a salesman in the development department. The HR
of Zhaosheng Investment Company is an old man who has been with my father for many years, so he can hide his identity for me.
No one knew that I was Xie Haiming’s daughter, and I even hid my education.
My job is to distribute questionnaires on the street and then collect them for feasibility analysis.
Work is simple and boring, colleagues are holding a perfunctory attitude, casually looking for a few students to stand at the corner of the street to send questionnaires, see pedestrians to chase after them, passers-by are annoyed, few people stop to complete the questionnaire survey seriously.
I carefully studied the content of the questionnaire, looking for targeted groups, e-commerce project audience is young people, early education project audience is novice mothers, sharing electric vehicle project audience is office workers.. Several times of data analysis have been done with great reference value, and have been well received by customers. Liu Tong, the manager of the
company, soon noticed me. When I was reporting my work, I casually let him know that I graduated from FD University. He was very surprised. “985 graduates are too talented to do questionnaires.” So I was promoted to be the team leader. It took
me two months to lead the team members to two projects, which made the whole company sit up and take notice of me. After the contract was signed, I let Liu Tong find my master’s degree again through HR.
“Why didn’t you disclose your education when you first joined the company?” Liu Tong asked me, “Maybe the starting point is even higher.”
I answered, neither humble nor pushy, “Academic qualifications don’t mean anything. Strength is the most important thing.”. A lot of companies think that new people are high-minded but low-skilled, but I just want to be down-to-earth and speak from my own strength. In
this way, I became Liu Tong’s assistant just half a year after I entered the company.
Liu Tong is no longer in contact with hundreds of thousands of small projects, docking companies are listed companies, the circle is different, the resource platform has also risen several levels.
In the conversation with customers, I got a message that Xingyao Group has an investment project with a target value of hundreds of millions of yuan to be evaluated. There is a work cocktail party in Xingyao
in the evening. I changed into the season’s new Burgundy GUCCI wrap dress, and went to do a long fluffy curly hair style, with delicate retro makeup. The
reception was held at the Four Seasons Hotel. I thought it would be easy for me to get in, but I was stopped by the security personnel at the door to check the identity of the guests. “Please show me your invitation card, madam.”
“Just a moment.” Smiling, I opened my handbag and pretended to rummage, but out of the corner of my eye, I glanced aside.
It happened that a tall, thin and tall man passed by. He didn’t have an invitation in his hand, but no one stopped him, and he strode past me.
I stepped forward and put my hand around his arm. Smiling, I reproached him. “You’re walking so fast. Why don’t you wait for me?”
He turned to look at me in surprise. The man was about thirty years old, with deep and three-dimensional features and a pair of particularly attractive eyes. The
security guard watched me enter the banquet hall and did not stop me.
Out of sight of the security guard, I let go of the man’s arm in surprise. “I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”
He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, as if his deep, sharp eyes could reach my soul through my skin.
Then he bowed slightly to me. “It’s my pleasure. Have a nice evening.” And disappear among the guests.
I looked around the reception and quickly targeted the guests. Jin Yelei, the prince of Xingyao Group, is 25 years old and has just returned from overseas studies.
He is the fiance of my father’s eldest daughter Xie Xinni. It is said that the two families are family friends and have close contacts in business. He and Xie Xinni are also childhood sweethearts.
I took a cocktail from the waiter’s tray and walked from the blind spot behind Jin Yelei to his side.
He is bookish, gentle and gentle, not like the noble son of the group, but like a college student just out of school.
At the moment he was talking to the person opposite, with an attentive expression, smiling and nodding from time to time.
Probably feeling someone approaching, he glanced at me out of the corner of his eye and then naturally put his arms around my waist.
I gave a low “ah”. When he heard the
sound, he turned to look at me. He quickly withdrew his arm and apologized with a red face. “Yes, I’m sorry. I thought it was..”
A woman came quickly from not far away, came to him sullenly, and took his arm like a declaration of sovereignty. It is Xie Xinni, my father’s eldest daughter, my half-sister and Jin Yelei’s fiancee, whom I have only seen in the photos.
I smiled at Chin Yeh-lei and said, “It doesn’t matter.” Then he glanced at Xie Xinni, smiled and walked away.
Xie Xinni pursed her mouth and unnaturally stretched the Burgundy GUCCI wrap skirt on her body.
Yes, we are wearing the same clothes in a gorgeous way.
I learned from my dad that Xie Xinni is a loyal user of GUCCI, so I went to check the order records of GUCCI and knew that she ordered this new GUCCI skirt of the season. So I ordered one of the same style through the famous shop.
Of course she bought it. I negotiated with the famous store to rent it. This skirt costs six figures. I can’t afford it. Even the rent cost me a month’s salary, plus matching heels and a clutch. Well, I’m fighting, too. Wearing the
same clothes on different people will have different effects, and people will unconsciously compare them.
Her figure is plump, and this wrap dress looks gorgeous and enchanting on her body.
I have been running for a long time to keep fit. In contrast, this skirt shows more exquisite figure on my body, and the slender waist is not full.
Moreover, she combed her hair into a bud bun, wore a diamond hairpin, and had many necklaces, earrings, and bracelets of the same style, which were really brilliant, but also looked deliberate. I don’t have the same jewelry
all over my body. My black hair and red lips make my skin better than snow. I am beautiful, natural and energetic.
Xie Xinni whispered a few words to Jin Yelei and then left the banquet hall for the lounge.
If my guess is right, she went to change clothes. A daughter like her usually prepares more than one dress for a party.
I went to the buffet and got some fruit. Chin Yeh-lei walked over to me and took a few slices of pineapple. “I’m really sorry about that.”
I turned to look at him with a big smile. “Compared to being hugged by a strange man, what makes me more embarrassed is wearing the same shirt.” I tilted my head and winked at him mischievously. “Do you think women are troublesome and pretentious?”
He laughed, and the smile was pure and warm on his young and handsome face.
And it’s really not your fault. It was I who deliberately went there to get close to you. I said to him as I ate the fruit.
He blushed and looked like a bewildered big boy.
“Hey, don’t get the wrong idea.” I pretended to be shy and scolded him. “I’m an investment consultant at a venture capital firm. I heard that your group has an investment project, and I want to take the opportunity to talk to you.”
“Oh, yes!” He breathed a sigh of relief, “However, our company has decided to hand over this project to the Zhaosheng Investment Company under the Lixin Group for evaluation.”
Coincidentally, I’m from the Zhaosheng Investment Company under the Lixin Group. How’s it going? Are you interested in talking about business? Think of it as docking ahead of time. I raised my eyebrows, and a little look of pride drew his smile again.
“All right, tomorrow morning, in my office. I’ll be waiting any time.” He has a sincere look.
Xie Xinni changed into a pink dress and came out of the lounge. I didn’t want to fight with her too early. Now that
I had achieved my goal, I stopped fighting and said to Chin Yeh-lei, “I’ll see you tomorrow.” Before I
left, I took a glass of red wine from the dining table and handed it to Jin Yelei. Bordeaux wine produced by Mouton Rothschild in France. Although the wines produced by this winery are well-known, they lack stability, surprise people when they are good, and are mediocre when they are bad. And I personally don’t like the characteristic coffee aroma in the wine, but with pineapple, it should be a bit of a surprise.
Chin Ye-lei took the glass and, after a moment’s pause, asked behind me, “I haven’t asked your name yet.”
I waved to him. “I’ll tell you tomorrow.” As I
walked out of the banquet hall, I felt a burning line of sight following me.
I turned around and saw that it was the man who had brought me in. When
he saw me looking at him, he raised the goblet in his hand to me, smiling at the corners of his mouth, as if he had just seen a good play.
I smiled, raised my glass to him, put it on the waiter’s tray, and left the banquet hall. Win the
first battle, and then it’s a lot easier. I said that some gifts are innate
. I have been well versed in observing words and expressions and penetrating into people’s hearts since I was a child.
Now as an adult, it is even more handy to use this skill to seduce men. There are only three things you need to remember to
arouse a man’s interest. First, cater to his preferences.
Second, create surprises. Third, arouse his desire for protection. When I went to Xingyao
the next day, I wore a simple and well-fitting business suit with light makeup, fresh
and capable, which was different from the previous day’s wanton flying appearance.
Jin Yelei’s assistant led me to his office. He was already waiting for me.
Xingyao Group is preparing to develop a new energy project in the local area.
From the early market outlook, the comparison of similar products, the feasibility of the project, to the specific
project start-up, the investment cycle, the market development model.. Because I have done enough
homework, I can talk about the project and put forward many opinions of my own.
Jin Yelei nodded frequently, and the two of us chatted for three hours.
“God, how time flies! It’s already twelve o’clock at noon.” Chin Yeh-lei stood up from the sofa
and said, “Let’s have a working meal together.”
“No.” I kept a decent smile and said, “I have to go back to the company to communicate with my colleagues
about the project and try to give you the feasibility analysis report as soon as possible.”
“Handing over this new energy project to Zhaosheng is the most correct choice for Xingyao.” He
said sincerely.
I sneer in the heart, nonsense, do not give your future father-in-law’s investment company to whom? “I’ll pass this on to my manager,” he said, smiling sweetly. “I’ll take it as a disguised compliment from the client on my work attitude and ability.”
He smiled and poured me a glass of wine. “It’s a real compliment.”. Let’s celebrate our future happy cooperation in advance.
I gently shook the goblet, then took a sip to let the wine fully merge in my mouth. Then I was surprised and said, “Haut-Brion.”
He was a little surprised. “This is relatively small, and not many people in the country know about it. Even if I drink it, I only know that its Chinese translation is Hou Po-wang. The Chinese translation
of Haut-Brion was originally called Hongyanrong, but the seller probably felt that the name was not grand enough, so he changed it to Hou Po-wang. I like its previous translation better. Hou Po-wang has the air of a local tyrant, but it destroys the delicate and gentle feeling of this wine. I took another sip and savoured it, exclaiming, “In terms of quality and taste alone, the Haut-Brion is unbeatable, with fine tannins and a long, fresh fruit finish.” Only when you know
yourself and your enemy can you fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat. I have been collecting information about Jin Yelei since half a year ago, and I can say that I know this person like the palm of my hand.
From the kindergarten he attended as a child to the Ivy League university he went abroad to study, from his personality to his hobbies, all of them have done enough homework.
Just because I knew he liked red wine, I studied the major wineries in Europe and read the tasting and sharing of famous wine tasters. A person who can only afford to buy a bottle of red wine
in a supermarket for tens of yuan is stunned to search through the Internet and package himself as a master of red wine in front of Jin Yelei.
He also likes sailing, golf, SmoothJazz.. God knows how much information I checked and how many all-nighters I stayed up all night in order to understand his hobbies. I, a native who had never been abroad, had to calculate my salary to make it to the end of the month.
However, these efforts are necessary, and soon Jin Yelei will find that I like what he likes, and I can say one, two, three what he knows. Often, as soon as he opens his mouth, I can take the second half of the sentence. It is only the first step
to cater to their preferences. Understanding a man’s hobbies is not difficult, as long as you are willing to listen attentively, most men are willing to talk, like a peacock spreading its tail, eager to shake out their strengths.
You can say a few words of appropriate ingratiation, “Wow, you are so awesome.” “You are very knowledgeable.” “So that’s it. I didn’t know that before.” Make sure that a man is like chicken blood in front of you. It’s
hard to make himself the one he likes.
It is said that men are fickle in love, peonies are loved and roses are picked. In fact, when playing, of course, I want to let a hundred flowers blossom, but what can make a man really interested will always be the same type of girl. In
life, it is not difficult to see that no matter how many girlfriends a man has changed, they may all be the same. He complained that his ex-girlfriend was clingy and had no opinions, and then he brought a new girlfriend back, and he was still clingy and had no opinions.
Is the so-called Wanwan class Qing. This is an attraction and preference derived from a person’s perception, which is difficult to change. After
several contacts, I knew that what attracted Jin Yelei was not a proud princess like Xie Xinni, nor a fresh little white flower. He likes independent women with brains, and it’s better to show a little charm in front of him from time to time. I can handle
this character setting with ease. I was worried that he liked silly white sweet, but that was too against my nature, and it would be very hard to act. Before the project
was officially filed, his eyes were already burning at me. Perhaps he himself did not realize that as the prince of Xingyao, he had invested too much attention and energy in this project, just to get in touch with me more.
The second step is to create a surprise. Now that we know his preferences, it’s too easy to make surprises, but it takes some thought and time.
A well-baked chestnut cake, a ticket to a jazz concert, a rainbow that suddenly appeared in the sky, a walk with an umbrella in the rain..
I wove a gentle trap to lure him deeper and deeper, and by the time he realized his fall, he was deep in my trap.
He began to hesitate, began to suffer, began to deliberately avoid me. Instead of
following up the investment project, he became the business manager of his company, and he filled himself with other work crazily. The prey has already entered the game, and I, the hunter, am not in a hurry to close the net.
I put Jin Yelei behind me and put my body and mind into my work. I had to step up
the deployment, Jin Yelei inadvertently revealed to me that Xie Xinni would soon enter Lixin and gradually
become familiar with Lixin’s business. I want to get in touch with Lixin’s core industry before she does. With the success of several
big projects and the strong support of Liu Tong, I am in the limelight
in Zhaosheng. When he returned to the head office to make a quarterly summary report, Liu Tong naturally took me
with him and asked me to give a lecture.
When I appeared in the conference room of Lixin Group, my father was dumbfounded when he saw me. He was so embarrassed
that he was afraid that I would rush to recognize my father.
I went to the demonstration stage to make Zhaosheng’s quarterly report. The statement was well-founded, the typhoon was
generous, and from time to time I told a few humorous jokes to enliven the atmosphere.
By the time I stepped down, someone had already asked Liu Tong about me. “Is this new
to your company?”? Why haven’t you seen it before?
“I am Wang Xinyan.” I held out my hand to the man. “It’s been less than a year since I got to Zhaosheng.”
“Young and promising.” The man was full of praise. “Little girls today are really excellent.”
A debriefing meeting made me look familiar at Lixin, and then I went to work at Lixin. As soon as I entered the office building,
someone stopped me and said, “It’s Miss Wang!”.
I looked back and saw that it was Fang Tongbin
, the manager of the development department who asked Liu Tong about me last time. At
the last work meeting, I found that he could not hide his appreciation in his eyes. Fang Tongbin warmly greeted me to go in with him and introduced me to all departments
of the company.
I looked at him with adoring eyes and smiled shyly, as if a girl who had just entered the society had fallen
under his mature male charm, which made him more and more interested.
So if a woman wants to climb up, there is still a shortcut to go. It just depends on whether you
can get through the barrier in your heart and whether you are willing to lower your head.
For me, this ladder doesn’t kick. After
several unexpected encounters, Fang began to flirt with him in words: “Yanyan,
how can I see you every time? Is there a fate between us?” Holding back my disgust,
I still pretended to be ignorant and naive. “I think it’s
because I’m sincere. Let me have more opportunities to ask you for advice.”
“Come and be my assistant in the new development department.” He offered me an olive branch.
I shook my head and said half-truthfully, “Are you kidding me? I’m already standing alone
in Zhaosheng. How can I only be your assistant?”
He burst out laughing. “The little girl’s heart is quite high.”
For this kind of self-righteous middle-aged man, it is good to hang up not far or near, and it is
not business to catch up.
Later, he still could not hold back, found a reason to dismiss the deputy manager of the development department, turned
to my father and asked me to be transferred.
My father didn’t agree at first. He was still afraid of the identity of my illegitimate daughter. He was afraid that Du Lan would find out and that it would affect his reputation. Once again,
I put on a bitter drama in front of him. “Dad, can’t I see the light of day all my life?”? Sister Nini and I, like Xuanxuan, are your children. Can you give me a chance to follow you? I just want to prove to you that I work hard enough and am good enough to be your daughter.
Xuanxuan, forgive your sister, and take you out as a weapon to attack that man.
I know my father has regrets and guilt for Xuanxuan. Compared to me, he still values Xuanxuan, the only son. With a deep sigh,
my father asked me to go to Lixin Development Department on secondment. Although
Fang Tongbin’s character is not very good, his ability is really first-class. I really learned a lot from him. I just want to guard against him all the time. He always likes to make a little flirtation through his work, thinking that young girls will eat him up.
Fang Tongbin is more and more determined to win for me and is full of desire to conquer. Say I am like a slippery fish, I pretend not to understand, will pretend to be stupid to the end. When
a middle-aged man is greasy, he is like a mouse falling into an oil tank, which is greasy from inside to outside.
Half a year later, Xie Xinni got a master’s degree from a foreign university and reported to Lixin. I haven’t heard of the name of
that university. I checked it on the Internet before I knew it was a pheasant university. Xie Xinni graduated a year late.
My father asked Xie Xinni to hang the title of deputy general manager and train her to be the successor.
Xie Xinni has no working experience. Every day when she goes to work, she either swaggers to meet with partners on behalf of the company, or holds a meeting for everyone, accusing the managers of various departments of doing nothing.
Everyone knows that she is the daughter of the president. Who dares to take her seriously? Holding her like a princess every day.
This makes her feel good about herself, and she really feels that she is an entrepreneurial prodigy, and as long as she comes out, she will have no disadvantage. In
half a year, I have been familiar with the new business and operation mode, and under my deliberate efforts, all departments of the company have my contacts. Now look coldly at Xie Xinni this workplace Xiaobai, want to dig a hole for her is also a matter of minutes. When I saw Jin Yelei
again, he came to send Xie Xinni to work. When they entered the door, I went out and looked at each other. Jin Yelei was stunned. His eyes were full of complex emotions, surprise and restraint.
Hsieh Hsin-ni disliked me for blocking the way and impatiently waved me aside. “Are you new here?”? So ignorant of the rules.
I respectfully bowed my head and said, “Good morning, General Manager Xie.” Isn
‘t that funny? He just came here for a few days, and he is General Manager Xie.
Jin Yelei lowered his eyes.
When Xie Xinni swaggered into the company building, he caught up with me from behind. “I went to Zhaosheng to find you, and they said you were transferred to Lixin.”
I ignored him and walked on.
He put his hands in his pockets and hung his head behind me. “I’m sorry. I know I shouldn’t have left that project. I just..”
I suddenly stopped and turned around. He almost bumped into me. “Xinyan..” He called my name and hesitated to speak.
“Don’t call me.” I wiped away the tears that welled up at the right time, and my expression was painful and stubborn. “You rich and powerful bosses, is it funny to tease one of my small staff?”
He panicked. “I didn’t..”
“No?” I stepped forward and pressed, the tip of my nose almost touching the tip of his nose. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were Xie Xinni’s fiance?”? Why not refuse my concert tickets? Why was it such a surprise to accept my chestnut cake? Talk to me every day about wine, music, ideals.. Tell me, what was going through your mind? Do you know how I felt when I learned from my colleagues that you are the son-in-law of our president? I gave up Zhaosheng’s position and transferred to the head office in order to avoid Xingyao and you. Why do you still appear in front of me? I beg you, leave me alone! Then
I turned and left, leaving him in a daze, a pitiful look of lost soul.
Now I can be sure where his heart belongs, but this love alone is not enough to make him repent of marriage. The marriage of the heirs of such a group is inevitable.
At this moment, Xie Xinni, standing at the gate of the company, witnessed all this. It was when
I saw her coming out that I pinched my thigh and forced tears.
Knowing that Xie Xinni was going to inspect the development department today, I specially put a photo frame on my desk. In the photo, I was wearing the Burgundy GUCCI wrap dress I wore at the Star Party a year ago, stroking my slightly curly hair and smiling brightly.
I believe that even if Xie Xinni doesn’t remember me, she will remember the dress that was the same as hers at that time. I don’t know how
Xie Xinni and Jin Yelei went crazy, and I don’t care. In the company, she began to make things difficult for me everywhere.
But she didn’t want to fire me. Out of sight, out of mind, it’s easy to worry, but for Xie Xinni, keeping me around all the time can relieve her hatred. What’s more, she was afraid that I would be out of her sight to seduce Jin Yelei again, so she might as well stare at me all the time and knock me so that I would not dare to act rashly.
Under the irony of Xie Xinni, everyone in the company knows that I am a fox spirit. All the way by men, earlier in Zhaosheng is Liu Tong, now is Fang Tongbin.
Well, as the old saying goes, a barking dog doesn’t bite, and a biting dog doesn’t bark.
Xie Xinni is lucky, born in a wealthy family, into the company is the future successor. Otherwise, with her mind, Jin Lixin is not qualified to be a small clerk. I don’t care whether I have a good reputation
or not. I have to be cautious because of the constraints in my work. It was by her that Fang Tongbin became more unscrupulous and looked at me more and more undisguisedly.
Men are like this, no one has bitten steamed bun will feel cherished, willing to pay time and energy. But now he thought that I was Liu Tong had eaten a mouthful, so he didn’t have that scruple. He thought that if someone else had eaten it anyway, why couldn’t I eat another mouthful?
All right, I’ve put up with him for six months, and it’s time to deal with him. You can also push Jin Yelei by the way.
The company has a press conference, which is followed by a banquet with the partners. This is the first time that Xie Xinni has attended a major banquet in Lixin, so early in the morning, she was riveted to impress the whole audience.
Last time I checked her GUCCI dress, I had to go through the official records. Now in the same company, it is not easy to hack into Xie Xinni’s computer through the intranet to check her shopping information.
This time, she spent a lot of money, customizing a DIOR snow blue one-shoulder dress, and the shimmering fabric was like a snow mountain shining in the sun. I gasped when I
saw the price. Even if my salary is not low now, I can’t afford it. And because it’s custom, I can’t go to a famous store to rent it.
I copy the appearance, from the Internet to find a domestic high-end dress customization company, not exactly the same, but for 89 points similar.
The press conference was my home court. As a organizer and a live speaker, I wore a decent white business suit, which made me look stable and capable.
The press conference was a complete success, and everyone congratulated me.
Jin Yelei also came, his eyes seemed to stick to me, never left me, completely ignoring the angry face of Xie Xinni. At the beginning of the
banquet in the evening, Xie Xinni’s snow blue dress really shocked the audience, and a whole set of sapphire ornaments made her look even more noble.
I changed into a similar style of skirt, I have to say that the domestic clothing production is not much worse than big brands, not professionals can hardly see much difference.
I can’t compare with Xie Xinni. I put down my long hair and wore a diamond eardrop on one ear. The long tassels swept over my snow-white shoulders.
When I walked into the banquet hall, the whole place was quiet.
At that moment, the expression on Xie Xinni’s face was really beautiful, and the smoke from seven orifices was not enough to describe it. But it happened that he had to maintain his manners in front of people, and he had to endure a lot of hard work. “Why are you so cheap?”
She said to me ferociously? Last time I thought it was an accident, but now I know you did it on purpose. You’re as fake as the dress you’re wearing. Hurry up and take it off. Don’t be disgusting here.
I hooked my lips and whispered in her ear, “What if I don’t?” She didn’t expect me to contradict her like this. After being stunned for a moment, her anger broke through the self-restraint she was trying to maintain
. She reached out and grabbed my skirt. “Then get out of here!” With
a crisp tearing sound of cloth and silk, my skirt slipped
off my shoulders, revealing the white silk base inside.
I exclaimed and put my hand over my chest.
All eyes are on us. Jin Yelei, who was
already nearby, quickly took off his suit and came forward to wrap me up.
He turned to Hsieh Hsin-ni angrily, “You’re crazy!”
Hsieh Hsin-ni lost her mind and retorted to Chin Yeh-lei, “You’re just crazy. Why are you turning to this
shameless woman?”
I wrapped my suit tightly around me, took a deep breath, and then said to the people around me with a smile on my face,
“Excuse me, I had a little accident with my dress. Please allow me to retire and change my
clothes.” In the
lounge, I had prepared a generous and simple light gray dress early in the morning. After changing,
I did not rush back to the banquet hall, but adjusted my facial expression and sat on the sofa,
holding Jin Yelei’s suit in my hand.
After a while, Jin Yelei knocked on the door and walked in, looking embarrassed. “Are you all right?”? Just
now..
“It’s all right.” I interrupted, sniffed, and handed him the suit. “Thank you. Here you are.”
“She didn’t do it on purpose. You know her temper. She just doesn’t like people wearing the same clothes as her.” He explained dryly.
“I know.” I tried to smile, suppressed the sob in my voice, and even tilted my head and winked at him mischievously. “Do you think women are very troublesome and pretentious?”
Same scene, same conversation, just like when we first met.
Jin Yelei was stunned for a moment and suddenly held me in his arms.
I slowly put my head on his shoulder, where he could not see, and burst into a proud smile.
A shrill scream rang in my ears, and the next second, I was dragged out of Jin Yelei’s arms by Xie Xinni’s arm. There was a snap, a slap in the face, and my cheeks quickly became red and swollen.
Strings of curses poured out of Xie Xinni’s mouth, and she cried forcefully, “shameless fox spirit, cheap embryo..”
Chin Ye-lei’s face was pale, and he couldn’t possibly hit a woman, so he could only push Hsieh Hsin-ni away, hug me on the shoulder, and say, “Let’s go.” Step
three is complete, and I have succeeded in arousing his desire for protection. Gave him the idea of breaking the engagement. Xie Xinni cried loudly, and her tears blurred the carefully painted makeup on her face.
I walked past her and felt happy in her cry.
Cry, cry out loud, you owe my brother.
I have a big gift for her.
Just now at the banquet, Fang Tongbin walked up to me with a glass of wine in his hand. Under the influence of alcohol, he stared at my chest brazenly
. “Tonight you are simply brilliant. How about a few
words alone?”
“There are too many people here.” I pretended to be angry and whispered to him, “Meet me in the
lounge in twenty minutes. I’ll wait for you there.”
I raised my champagne to him, and he was so thirsty that he raised his goblet and
drank it down.
Now calculate the time, Fang Tongbin should go to the lounge. The lounge was dimly lit, and half
drunk, he was afraid that he couldn’t tell whether it was me or Xie Xinni in the lounge, after all, we
were wearing the same snow blue dress.
Sure enough, shortly after Jin Yelei and I returned to the banquet, a woman
‘s screams came from the lounge.
Everyone did not know why, and after looking at each other, they all swarmed outside the lounge to find
out.
Jin Yelei also recognized that the voice was wrong and left me running over.
After a while, Jin Yelei came
out of the lounge with her clothes disheveled and Xie Xinni still in shock.
The security guard came forward to restrain Fang Tongbin, who was confused and embarrassed to be at a loss.
Xie Xinni kept screaming, “Call the police, call the police, he molested me!”
I raised my glass and took a sip of champagne. I closed my eyes and enjoyed it. Well, it tasted good.
This is killing three birds with one stone, except for Fang Tongbin, disgusting Xie Xinni, and turning Jin Yelei
from a casual fan into a die-hard fan of mine.
A sneer rang out beside him. I followed the sound and saw a tall, thin man leaning against the table
, his arms folded in front of his chest and his feet crossed lazily.
Your previous skirt was too weak, and Xie Xinni fell off without any effort
. You wore such a tight base under your dress. Did you expect to be
naked in advance? “By the way,” he said slowly, “can you explain to me why Fang Tongbin’s eyes glowed after he talked to you at the banquet just now
, as if he had been beaten with chicken
blood?”
I looked him up and down warily. This man is full of danger and charm
.
“Don’t you remember me?” He gave me a good look. “You had my arm when you went to the Star
Party a year ago.”
I smiled at him, showing my snow-white teeth. “Such an outstanding person as your excellency is naturally unforgettable.”. I haven’t thanked you for what happened last time, and I haven’t come to ask your name.
“No need to thank me.” He tilted his head and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of refusal, elegant and seductive. “My name is Jin Xuyan.”
? I was frantically searching for information about him in my mind, and I must have seen the name somewhere.
By the way, Jin Xuyan, Jin Yelei’s uncle, is only five years older than him. But I remember Jin Yelei’s information said that his uncle had been managing Xingyao’s overseas business and spent most of the year abroad. Jin Xuyan stood up straight and walked towards me with his long legs.
I felt a sense of oppression and held on to it.
He came up to me, a head taller than me, and looked down at me, so to speak. “In terms of seniority, you should call me uncle.”
“Uncle?” “You’re not much older than me,” I sneered. “Do you like to act like an elder?”
“I may not be very old, but my seniority is there.” He explained to me with a smile, “Your name is Hsieh Hsin-yan, Hsieh Hsin-ni’s half-sister.”. Xie Xinni and our Ye Lei have an engagement, and they will call me uncle when they meet. Do you think you should call me uncle? My face changed when I
heard him say my name.
He stopped smiling and continued to approach me. Half a year ago, Ye Lei told me that he had a crush on a girl and was very upset. I didn’t know until I asked that I met you at the Xingyao cocktail party. Do you know what impression you made on me at that time? Like a little fox who bared his teeth and disguised himself as a little sheep, it is quite different from what Ye Lei said about you.
I asked someone to check on you.
I stared into his eyes and swallowed nervously.
I didn’t tell Ye Lei your true identity. One is that you don’t want him to be sad and disappointed, and the other is that you’ve been honest for half a year and haven’t looked for him again.
His voice was gentle, but what he said made me shudder. “I’ll let you go this time, because you’re not bad to the end, and you haven’t caused any real harm to Xie Xinni.”. But I warn you, don’t involve Ye Lei in your family’s rags.
He held out his hand and patted me on the top of the head like an elder to a younger generation. “Be good, stay away from him. Don’t force me to do it.”
Then he went away, leaving me where I was, and suddenly he shivered.
This is really a ghost walking at night!
Fang Tongbin was dismissed by Lixin. Xie Xinni felt humiliated and didn’t come to the company for many days.
I am acting as the manager of the development department. Although my salary has not been raised, I have the real power.
My father also saw my ability, talked to me more and more times, and sometimes asked my opinion about the company’s major decisions.
These days, I have been working on several big projects with my father, trying to turn myself into a person who will not be kicked away by the company. At least let my father think about my value before he throws me out and evaluate the bad influence I brought to Lixin after I defected to the competing company.
I know I don’t have much time left. Jin Xuyan can find out my identity, which is easy for Du Lan. As long as Xie Xinni goes home and cries to her mother, Du Lan can guess my identity without looking for a private detective.
Indeed, Du Lan soon found me, called me to the conference room, without a word of nonsense, told me directly that I was fired, let me get out immediately.
“Why?” I smiled at the woman in front of me. Fifty years old, but well maintained, I can not help but think of my mother living in a dirty small apartment, playing mahjong with unkempt hair.
“I know all too well what you’re thinking.” She looked contemptuous. “To get you out of here is to give you a way out. If I pick out your negligence in business or money, you could go to prison.”
This is a naked threat. But I have long been on guard against this hand, because it is the position of agent, so I will not sign all business and capital transactions, I will report every transaction through my hands to the Finance Department, so that people can not catch the handle. If you want to hack me in this respect, you have to frame me for fraud.
“If you want to make a game, it will take time.” I took out a stack of papers from my briefcase. “The evidence of your precious daughter’s malfeasance is real.”
Tu Lan didn’t notice it at first, but took it over and looked at it casually, but her face became more and more solemn. When she saw it, she finally gnashed her teeth and said, “You are so mean.”
“Despicable?” I laughed. “Not to mention, just to protect myself.”. You can only blame Xie Xinni for being too stupid. A well-fed rich second generation, do not know anything, still have to point fingers in the company, show off everywhere, they do not know how much trouble they have made. Although the above evidence is not enough to commit a crime, once it is disclosed, not only will it have a negative impact on the new opposition, but Hsieh Hsin-ni will not be able to continue in the industry. The
documents include Xie Xinni’s contacts with developers and some officials, and even money. After she entered the company, her biggest role was to pretend to be a tiger and flaunt her identity as a child. No matter what the occasion, she signed the bill with a stroke of her pen, and the company’s financial officer did not dare not approve it because of her identity. All
I had to do was to bribe her assistant, tell me what was going on with her, and ask her partner to dig a few holes for her, so she jumped in obediently. With a sullen face,
Du Lan tore up the document in his hand three times.
I leaned back in my chair. “It’s okay, it’s just a photocopy.”. Instead of thinking about destroying the evidence. Why don’t you guess what else I have in my hand? Is it enough to send Hsieh Hsin-ni to the Bureau?
Du Lan tried to regain her composure. She gave me a deep look. “What do you want?”
“I want..” I tilted my head and thought, “I want everything that should belong to me, identity, status, wealth, my father’s business.”. Xie Xinni has it, and I can’t do the same. Oh, I almost forgot. I have to thank Xini’s fiance.
Du Lan was so angry that her face contorted. She gnashed her teeth and said, “I really underestimated you, a bastard. It’s the same as your shameless mother who is a mistress.”
The Xie family attaches great importance to the marriage between Xie Xinni and Jin Yelei. With my in-depth understanding of Lixin Group, I found that there is a big problem in the operation of Lixin now. The surface is bright, but in fact it is an empty shell. Many traditional businesses have shrunk, and the development of new businesses has not kept up with them in time. The company’s operation mode is also old and easy to be eliminated by the market. So the Xie family is in urgent need of Jin’s support.
Soon, the news came that Jin Yelei wanted to repent his marriage. It was said that Jin Yelei had proposed to break up with Xie Xinni, but the parents of both sides had not spoken yet. At the celebration banquet after the
press conference, Jin Yelei defended me in front of Xie Xinni, which was obvious to all. As a result, there were rumors in the company that I had seduced Xie Xinni’s fiance.
My dad came to me with a serious expression. “Tell me, what’s going on?”
I said bluntly, “It’s not very different from what everyone says.”
My father looked at me in astonishment. “Jin Yelei is your sister’s fiance. Do you know what kind of impact this will have on Lixin?”
“Chin Ye-lei is the son-in-law of the Lixin Group.” I corrected my father, “As for whether he married Hsieh Hsin-ni or I, Hsieh Hsin-yan, is there any difference between the two?”
My father was stunned for a moment and looked at me as if he didn’t know me.
I continued to lobby him, “Dad, after this period of time, I believe you can see who is more suitable to assist you, me or Hsieh Hsin-ni, so that Lihsin can remain invincible in the market.”. I know you think Xie Xinni is more orthodox, and you also care about Du Lan’s idea. But you are no longer the one who started with the Du family. Her family has given you a chance, but over the years you have relied on your own intelligence and hard work to develop Lixin into what it is now. What does it have to do with the Tu family?
I too know what my father’s most taboo is, he has not been tough in front of Du Lan, because he was originally funded by the Du family to create Lixin.
With my understanding of my father, the more he cared about the support of the Du family at the beginning, the more he would feel that he could not raise his head in front of the Du family, and the more he would turn this inferiority into resentment. In the face of Du Lan’s domineering, he did not dare to disobey on the surface, but in his heart he did not know how much he hated it.
What’s more, if he was a grateful man, there would be no mother and me.
Now my words are in his heart. He sat in his chair and straightened his back unconsciously.
“You are more capable than Xinni, but after all, your identity..” My dad’s still worried about his reputation.
“What happened to the illegitimate daughter?” I continued to brainwash him. “The King of Gambling has four wives and more than ten children.”. Now that the children of the second wife are in charge, who dares to despise them?
The next day, my father held a board meeting and appointed me as the deputy general manager of Lixin, which was Xie Xinni’s previous position. When my father introduced me at the board meeting, he used the name of Xie Xinyan.
A stone stirred up a thousand waves. I am the illegitimate daughter of Xie Haiming. The whole company knows my identity. People no longer look at me as before, respectfully call me Vice General Manager Xie, and some people call me Little General Manager Xie in order to appear intimate.
My Dad asked me to take Jin Yelei as soon as possible. I promised, but I didn’t see him again.
He didn’t do anything wrong. He didn’t feel sorry for me. It was wrong for me to play with other people’s feelings for my own self-interest. Now that I have achieved my goal, I am too lazy to play the game of love with him.
Moreover, Jin Xuyan’s warning lingered in my ears at the celebration banquet that day, and my intuition told me that it was a person I could not afford to provoke.
I didn’t go to find Jin Yelei, but he came to me. He had lost a lot of weight and looked like a good student in a simple white shirt and jeans.
To be honest, he is not my type. He is too clean, from childhood to adulthood, I think the black heart lotus like me and he are like people in two different worlds.
But when I saw him carefully take out two tickets for the concert from his pocket and hand them to me expectantly, I broke my guard fiercely.
“Actually, I don’t like jazz.” I didn’t reach for his ticket.
His eyes were gloomy in an instant, and the little stars in his eyes disappeared.
“But if you want to accompany me, let’s go to the movies.” I reached out and took his hand.
I began to really associate with Jin Yelei with my heart and fall in love with my heart.
I gave him the notebook that I had done my homework before. It records my research on him, his hobbies, wine tasting, golf rules, the origin of jazz and leading figures.. The more
he looked at his notebook, the more shocked he became.
I know it’s not smart to do so, but in my eyes, sincerity and honesty are the cornerstones of love.
I would like to put my undisguised self in front of him, an ordinary girl who grew up in the street, never went abroad, never played sailing, could not drink red wine, and was sleepy when listening to jazz. I even have an unbearable background. I am ambitious and calculating. I am not kind. I can do anything to achieve my goal.
I hope he can like the real me, not the one who is played out to deceive him. Love is happy when you
put down the burden. Jin Yelei is a gentle and considerate boyfriend. Never in my life have I been so cherished and treated so tenderly.
In the afternoon, I had a cocktail party to attend at the Imperial Hotel. I made an appointment with Ye Lei that I would accompany him to a concert in the evening, and then he would accompany me to eat on the road.
I told him on the phone, “Don’t even drive at night. I brought a nice bottle of wine so we can have a drink at dinner.”
He said with a smile in his voice, “Does Bordeaux go with roadside kebabs?”
“Mix and match is perfect!” I said with a smile.
We are still in the process, but at least we are sincere.
The party was boring and I was about to run away when Linda, the CFO of Vison, came up to me with a glass of wine. The two of us had dealt with each other several times and exchanged a few pleasantries.
During this period, she recommended me to taste the western food prepared at the banquet, which was really delicious. After retiring
with the organizers, I walked out of Dihao. The Xingyao Group Building is very close to here, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk there. So I let the driver drive back early in the morning, carrying the red wine box to Xingyao.
After a few steps, he felt dizzy. At first I thought it was because I drank two glasses of champagne at the party, but gradually my eyes were blurred and I couldn’t even see the road clearly.
I felt something was wrong and struggled to take out my cell phone from my schoolbag to call Ye Lei, but I couldn’t see the screen clearly and my hands were trembling and I couldn’t press the button.
His body was getting softer and softer, and he would faint at any time. I propped up the tree trunk beside the road and gasped for breath. Two men
passed by. One of them stepped forward to support me. “Pingping, are you all right? What’s wrong with you?”
I wanted to ask who Pingping was, but I shivered and could not speak.
“Go, go, go. We’ll take you home.” The two men picked me up one on each side and walked toward the van not far away, muttering, “I told you not to drink so much, but you didn’t listen. If you get drunk, you won’t feel bad!” Alarm bells went off in my chaotic brain. I reached out my weak hand and grabbed a middle-aged man who was passing by
. “Call the police,” I whispered hoarsely. “I don’t know them.”
But the uncle didn’t hear what I was saying. The man who was
holding me up laughed at the uncle, “My girlfriend, she’s drunk.”
The uncle nodded clearly and walked around me.
The passers-by did what they should do, and no one realized that a kidnapping was taking
place in front of them.
Seeing the van getting closer and closer to me, I felt a trace of despair in my heart, and I knew that as long as
I got on the bus, I would be finished. My
vision was blurred, and I could only see a man standing on the side of the road, very
tall and strong, holding a mobile phone in his hand and making a phone call. With the last bit of my strength,
I broke away from the two men who were restraining me and rushed at the man
, staggering and grabbing his skirt. The man who
tried to kidnap me came after him. “Sorry, my girlfriend drank too much.”
Now I knew it was useless for me to say anything, so I grabbed the man’s mobile phone and
threw it on the ground.
The man gaped at the phone falling apart on the ground.
I grabbed his arm and fell to the ground. I saw him grab the man who kidnapped me.
“Aren’t you her boyfriend? Pay for my cell phone!”
The hallucinogen didn’t last long. Ten minutes later, I woke up and sat side by side with the man who saved me on the curb, waiting for the police to arrive. The
two men who kidnapped me ran away. I really don’t blame the man beside me. He grabbed one of them. As a result, I held his arm and refused to let go. The man took the opportunity to break free. The man
next to him, holding the broken phone, sighed, “Actually, you didn’t have to break my phone. I was calling the police.”
I rubbed my hands. “I’ll pay for it, I’ll pay for it.”
My eyes swept over his chest, and I tore off a few buttons of his shirt, revealing a strong and tight chest. I quickly turned my eyes away and said, “I’ll pay for it with my clothes.”
I never thought it was Jin Xuyan who saved me. It’s very close to Xingyao, and he happened to pass by.
He saw two men carrying me, and I looked a little delirious, so he took out his cell phone and called the police. But I didn’t want to grab the phone and throw it on the ground.
“Are you in someone’s way?” He asked me, “On the surface, it was a gang that abducted and sold women, and they used their usual modus operandi.”. Give the target a little hallucinogen or something, and then pretend to be an acquaintance. But the two men just now are vigorous and muscular, and you can see that they have been trained. They are not ordinary hoodlums.
I hung my head and said nothing. I don’t have to think about it. I know it must be set up by Du Lan. Her methods are always so dirty, but it happens that people can not catch the handle.
Calling the police is just a procedure. As Jin Xuyan said, the two people just now are not ordinary trafficking gangs at all. This kind of person’s identity is concealed, his work is sophisticated, and he has a strong anti-arrest ability.
Blame me for my carelessness. I ate the cake that Linda handed me in Dihao. If I remember correctly, she was Du Lan’s distant cousin.
Seeing that I was silent, Chin smacked his lips and shook his head. “Your family members are really restless.” Remembering his warning to me last time,
I hastened to declare my loyalty. “Uncle, this time I’m sincere to Ye Lei. I didn’t lie to him again.”
Jin Xuyan twitched at the corners of his mouth and looked at me meaningfully.
For the sake of my happiness, I clenched my teeth and argued strongly. “Uncle, in fact, if you think about it carefully, although my nephew’s daughter-in-law can’t satisfy you all the time, she’s better than Hsieh Hsin-ni.”. I have a solid 985 graduate degree, unlike her diploma from a foreign pheasant university. Although I have a lot of ideas, as long as I don’t have to harm my own people. This market is like a battlefield. If you were a big girl who had been kicked in the head by a donkey, you wouldn’t be able to keep up appearances. “So you’re determined to come into our house?” Said
Chin Hsu-yan.
“It’s not the time to talk about marriage.” I picked my fingers. Ye Lei and I are still in the running-in period. After all, we are two people who grew up in such different environments and personalities. I don’t know how far we can go, but I believe we can overcome all the difficulties if we work together. My
mouth was so dry that I picked up my red wine box from not far away, asked Jin Xuyan to help me open the wine with the bottle opener inside, and poured a mouthful into the mouth of the bottle.
“It’s a waste of natural resources.” Jin Xuyan looked disgusted. “Are you so bold and unconstrained in front of our Ye Lei?”
I shook my head and wiped the wine stains from my lips with the back of my hand. I’m afraid I’ll scare your nephew away. The siren of the police car was heard in the
distance, and Ye Lei also got the news and rushed over.
Jin Xuyan looked at Ye Lei, who was running far away, and whispered to me, “I always feel that you two are actually not..” He sighed. “Forget it. You treat him well. This silly boy of our family is really in trouble.” Jin Xuyan and
I went to the police station to record a statement, the police filed a case, and began to investigate the surrounding surveillance video, looking for criminals. But I know that I can only eat this dumb loss.
This also reminds me that Du Lan is a ruthless person, when she was able to use a piece of almond pie to get rid of my brother Xuanxuan without being noticed, now she can use the same dirty means to get rid of me. If you don’t succeed once, there will be a second and third time.
Now that I have gained a firm foothold in Lixin and mastered the core secrets of Lixin, the hatred in my heart has been entrenched for seven years. It’s time to settle with her.
Since I returned to this city, I have never given up looking for Zhang Jie, who worked as a nanny in my father’s house. My father said that after Xuanxuan’s accident, Du Lan dismissed her at the first time.
Sister Zhang’s name is Zhang Chundi, and her ancestral home is a small county in Henan.
I sent a private investigator to her hometown to find out where she was, but I found nothing. There were no relatives in her hometown, and she seemed to have disappeared from the world.
I asked the finance department of the company to make a check of the current accounts over the years. Because the private financial management of the Xie family is also linked to the finance department of the company, it is checked together.
I found that there was a payment of 300,000 yuan in Du Lan’s account seven years ago, and the payee was a temporary account. Following this account, the account holder is Zhang Chundi.
With the clue to the account, I let the private detective follow the trail and finally found out where she was. Seven years ago, Zhang Chundi got a windfall, changed her name to Li Guixiang, and settled in a small town in Shanxi with her only son.
I personally went to Shanxi and found Zhang Chundi, who assumed the name of Li Guixiang, but she denied her identity.
She clearly admitted that she was an accomplice, so she insisted that she was Li Guixiang, did not know Du Lan, and did not know my brother Xuanxuan.
It seems that it is not feasible to let Zhang Chundi voluntarily plead guilty and identify Du Lan. Before I
left Shanxi, the last time I saw Chang Chun-ti, she still looked as if she had nothing to eat.
I didn’t ask any more questions about what had happened in those years. I just looked at the shabby house where she lived, shook my head, and casually dropped a sentence: “You are really a beggar with a golden rice bowl.” There was a flash of light in
Zhang Chundi’s muddy eyes.
I know she knows what to do.
A few months later, I looked at the details of Du Lan’s account on my desk and could only sigh with emotion that evil people have their own evil people.
Zhang Chundi asked for hundreds of thousands of yuan at first, but later her appetite grew bigger and bigger, and people’s greed was really endless.
According to my understanding of Du Lan, she doesn’t care about the money. What she cares about is that Zhang Chundi holds a deadly handle. I can imagine her choice when she feels that things are speeding in an uncontrollable direction.
To Du Lan, I just want to close the net. Watching the prey in a constant state of anxiety is better than killing her.
But I didn’t tell Ye Lei about that. In my eyes, he is clean, and I can’t see these pickling methods.
It’s just that he never told his parents about our relationship. No one in their family knows about us except Jin Xuyan, which makes me a little uncomfortable. I comfort myself that Ye Lei still needs time, and I am willing to wait for him.
After August 15, it was the 52nd birthday of Jin Moyan, the father of Ye Lei.
The birthday banquet was held in Sanxi Xiaozhu, a garden-style hotel. Not many guests, except relatives
and friends. Jin Xuyan also rushed back from abroad.
My dad brought me to the party. I understand what he means. Seeing that Ye Lei and I have been in love for so
long, but there is no explanation, he is a little anxious. Lixin is in urgent need of holding Jin
‘s thighs.
Although this time I met Ye Lei’s parents not as his girlfriend, but as his partner’s
daughter, I was still very excited. During the dinner,
I was generous and well-behaved, perfectly playing the most favorite daughter-in-law image in the eyes
of my parents’ generation. Ye Lei’s parents praised me again and again, and his mother even took
my hand and wanted to recognize me as a goddaughter on the spot.
Jin Xuyan rolled his eyes aside. While talking
happily, Ye Lei answered a phone call with a very strange expression.
I walked up to him and whispered, “What’s wrong?”.
He frowned and said, “There was a woman on the phone who claimed to be your mother. She said she was already at the door
and wanted to come.” My son-in-law.
It must be Du Lan’s ghost, but I didn’t think she would come to disgust me when she was in trouble for Zhang Chundi.
When Chin Hsu-yen heard what was happening on our side, he asked what had happened and said nonchalantly, “Just come. After all, it’s your mother. Taking this opportunity means that the two families have met.”
He can say this because he hasn’t seen my mother’s style yet.
I looked at Ye Lei. He frowned and didn’t look at me at all.
I told him about my mother’s condition, and I gave him a vaccination in advance, so I could understand his concern at the moment.
“I’ll stop her.” I walked quickly to the door.
But before I could go out, my mother’s loud voice rang through the banquet hall, “Oh, I’m late for my in-laws’ birthday. I should be punished.”
Then she saw a moving pink mailbox wriggle in from the door. She was wearing a tight pink dress, her fat figure was hooped in circles, her hair was permed with big waves, her earrings were exaggerated, and she was carrying a platinum bag in her hand.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing who was coming.
My father’s face was livid.
I hurried up to meet her, grabbed her by the arm, and said as calmly as I could, “Let’s go back.” My mother shook off my hand. “Back to what?”? I’ve come to pay my respects
to my in-laws and meet my son-in-law. As
she spoke, she took out a red envelope from her platinum bag and handed it across the table to Jin Moyan, who was sitting in the main
seat. “This is the in-laws, isn’t he? He looks like an ordinary person.
I wish you good fortune and a long life, and you will soon have a big fat grandson.”
Jin Moyan frowned and looked coldly at Jin Yelei.
Jin Yelei lowered his head and stepped back.
Jin Xuyan stepped forward and took the red envelope from my mother’s hand. “Then I’ll take it for
the birthday boy,” he said.
My mother looked at Jin Xuyan with starry eyes and said, “You must be Leilei. The young man is really
energetic.”. My daughter has a good taste! It’s a little token of my appreciation when we meet for the first time. As
he spoke, he took out another thin red envelope from his bag and forced it on Chin. “Don’t be polite to
Auntie. Take it. We’ll all be a family in the future!”.
Jin Xuyan touched his nose with a wry smile and had to take the red envelope in full view of the public.
My mom was finally dragged out by my dad.
I walked out of the banquet hall in the eyes of the crowd and never looked back at Jin Yelei
. Jin Yelei didn’t contact me for a
whole week, and I didn’t look for him again. In the adult world
, sometimes you don’t need to say much. Walking out of the company after work
this day, I didn’t expect Jin Xuyan to appear outside Lixin. Do
you have time to sit down and say a few words? He asked me.
I took him to the cafe on the corner of the street. He ordered a cup of coffee, took a sip and put it down with a bitter face. “I’ve never had such a bad coffee.”
I looked at him coldly. “You didn’t come to me to complain about the coffee, did you?”
He put a thick notebook on the table. “Xiaolei asked me to return this to you.”
This notebook is exactly what I gave Jin Yelei when I really started dating him, and it records all the homework I did for him.
“Xiaolei has been in a lot of pain these days, and my brother and sister-in-law have put a lot of pressure on him.” Chin says quite officially, “I think you can understand that love alone is not enough in life.”
“I understand.” I said simply and clearly, “My family background, my family background, and my mother are not in your family’s sight, and he doesn’t have the courage to fight for me.”
He didn’t expect me to be so Frank. He shook his head and said, “It’s not that you’re not good enough. It’s just that I thought you two were not suitable.”
I laughed, “You don’t have to comfort me, and I won’t deny myself because of your family’s rejection.”. It’s not me who doesn’t deserve your nephew, but my family and background. At your eldest brother’s birthday party
that day, my mother frightened your family. I know how weird my mom is. For as long as I can remember, she’s been at the poker table, and she won’t go home until she loses all her money
. When I ran out of money, I was thrown out of the house and asked to ask my father for it. She didn’t throw me away, but she used me as a tool to blackmail my father.
I have no way to choose my parents, but I can understand your family’s criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law. Such a mother-in-law would be a headache for everyone.
He listened quietly, then sighed for a moment. “Now I kind of feel that that silly boy in our family is not good enough for you.”
“It doesn’t matter whether you deserve it or not.” I picked up my purse and got up to leave.
“This notebook..” He asked.
“Throw it away for me.” I walked out the door of the cafe.
The bottom of my heart still mind, after all, love, but he did not even say goodbye to me face to face.
In autumn, the wind is cold. I couldn’t help wrapping my coat tightly. It was time to get off work, and the streets were full of pedestrians rushing home, passing me in a hurry. Jin Yelei and
I are also like passers-by in each other’s lives. We have met and crossed paths, but in the end, we run counter to each other.
In fact, as early as the birthday party, I already knew that our relationship was over. He may really love me, but he is not ready to face difficulties with me.
Two months later, I got the news that Jin Yelei and Xie Xinni were going to get married because Xie Xinni was pregnant.
I can figure it out with my toes. The mother and daughter scolded my mother for so many years, and the result was not much better than my mother. Well, it’s a little smarter. At least Xie Xinni can marry Jin Yelei as she wishes.
Jin Yelei and Xie Xinni’s wedding was held as scheduled, and half of the company went to the wedding. It is said that the wedding banquet is held in a five-star hotel under the name of Xingyao, which is luxurious and grand.
I sat at my desk and looked through the information that the private detective gave me. Zhang Chundi has asked Du Lan for millions of yuan. The words on the
file looked like a headache. I closed the file and stood in front of the French window with a cup of coffee to see the city scenery outside. In
my mind, I unconsciously recalled the man with a clean smile who said he loved me again and again in the sunshine. It is false to
say no regret, after all, we have been so close to happiness. The door of the
office was knocked open and Jin Xuyan came in in a formal suit. He was supposed to be at the wedding, but he was in my office.
He looked at me, and his deep eyes made me nowhere to hide. Feeling a little uncomfortable,
I asked him disguisedly, “Want some coffee?”
He nodded. “You must not have done your research on me. I am a deep coffee lover.”
I poured him a cup of coffee.
He took a sip with a look of disgust on his face. “Is this coffee?”? There is a smell of water in the pan, and it is still the pan in which the salted fish has been fried. I didn’t bother to hide it in front of
him, so I waved my hand and said, “Just make do with it. In my place, coffee can only be made with or without sugar or milk. I don’t know whether it tastes good or bad.”
“Why aren’t you an uncle working on your nephew’s wedding?” I asked him.
He put down the coffee cup in his hand. “Yeh Lei was framed by Hsieh Hsin-ni.”
I couldn’t help laughing. So what? If he does not admit it, he can go to the police, even if the police do not accept the rape of men by women, but he can also accuse Xie Xinni of intentionally injuring him. He did not call the police, but also accepted the threat of Xie Xinni’s pregnancy. Therefore, though he is wronged, he is not innocent.
Jin Xuyan smiled bitterly. “Hsieh Hsin-yan, do you have to live so thoroughly?”? Leave no room for others, and leave no room for yourself.
“What are you going to do?” I asked him directly, “Do you stand up for your nephew and take my ex-girlfriend to the wedding?”? Save it. Even without Hsieh Hsin-ni, your nephew and I wouldn’t have been able to get back together. The cabbages that
our family has been raising for more than 20 years have been arched by pigs. It’s you. Can you swallow it? Chin Hsu-yan looked up to heaven and sighed, “I want to clean up that dead girl, but my eldest brother won’t let me do it.”. My eldest brother and sister-in-law are still thinking about the unformed descendants of the Jin family in the dead girl’s belly. As an uncle, I just can’t be reconciled! “Not reconciled?” I snorted coldly, “So what if I’m not reconciled?”? I’ve had a lot of
things that I’ve been unwilling to do since I was a child.
When I think of the proud faces of Du Lan and Xie Xinni at the wedding, I hate them so much that my teeth itch. What
I care about is not that Jin Yelei is newly married, but that the mother and daughter get what they want.
“Why don’t the two of us make some trouble for her family?” Jin Xuyan suddenly approached me.
I narrowed my eyes. “How can I add to the congestion?”
Chin Hsu-yen, with his delicate lips bent, laughed, vividly and charmingly. “Don’t you want to experience
the joy of being a senior?”.
I took the hint and put my arm around him. “It’s a great honor.”
When I appeared at the wedding with Jin Xuyan on my arm, everyone looked at
us dumbfounded. Outshine the bride and groom. We were late
because we went to buy my dress and put on makeup. The ceremony was
finished. The bride and groom went to change their clothes and prepared to toast from table to table.
We were followed by the eyes of the crowd and sat at the main table on the groom’s side.
Jin Moyan looked at his brother with a black face. But Jin Xuyan turned a blind eye to it, and after sitting down, he thoughtfully
helped me arrange the dishes.
I tried not to see the wonderful expression of my mother’s family. I was afraid I would laugh out
loud. The newlyweds began to toast at each table, and the first to come was the main table.
When Jin Yelei saw me, he froze.
Xie Xinni was still smiling at Jin Yelei’s parents and called them Mom and Dad. When
she turned around and saw me, she lost her expression management in an instant. Her mouth was wide open and she could stuff an egg
.
“This is my niece and daughter-in-law. She’s fine.” Then
he waited expectantly for her to call him uncle. With a stiff face
, Hsieh Hsin-ni called out “uncle” and turned to go.
“Nieces and daughters-in-law are waiting,” Chin Hsu-yen called to her. “We haven’t finished the marriage yet.” In full view of
the public, Xie Xinni could only stop.
I sat firmly on the chair, slowly took out a thick
red envelope from my handbag, held the corner of the red envelope in the air, and looked at Xie Xinni
with a half-smile. The
atmosphere froze for a full minute, and I was tired of lifting my hands. Seeing
that she couldn’t get away with it, Hsieh Hsin-ni asked helplessly, “What’s your name?”
Jin Xuyan put his hand on my shoulder, and his face was full of kindness. “This silly child, call her aunt
. Your aunt specially prepared a big red envelope for you to change your words, just waiting for you to recognize your relatives
.”. We will be a family from now on. On
one side, Jin Yelei called out awkwardly, “Uncle..” He hesitated to speak.
Jin Xuyan stopped smiling and glanced at Jin Yelei. “Xiaolei, it’s none of your business. It’s not your turn to stand up for your wife.”. This is the rule for our new daughters-in-law of the Chin family to come in and recognize their relatives.
I know it’s embarrassing for Jin Yelei to appear at the wedding in such a capacity. But if he chooses to give me up, he is not qualified to interfere in my life. On the
big day, the bride couldn’t fall out in front of all the guests. In the end, Hsieh still clenched her back teeth and called out “Auntie.”.
I sighed with satisfaction and finally put the red envelope into her hand. Before the
wedding banquet was over, Jin Xuyan and I ran away, because it was very hard to hold back our laughter. If we stayed any longer, we would really dance and laugh.
Sitting in Jin Xuyan’s car, I finally burst out laughing. Did you see that my father and Du Lan’s faces were so long and black as the bottom of a pot just now. There are even people who don’t have eyes to tell them that the two daughters of your family are married to the uncle and nephew of the Jin family respectively. What about the future of this generation? Ha ha ha, I’m laughing my ass off. Tu Lan is about to lift the table.
Jin Xuyan looked at me with a smile. “Just now I was busy picking up things at the wedding banquet. I didn’t have enough to eat.”. I know a good little restaurant. I’ll take you there. The private dishes in
that small restaurant are really novel and unique, and every dish makes me want to lick the plate. I have
been back for nearly two years, and I have never been so relaxed with people. No need to disguise yourself, no need to be wary of others, no need to try to figure out each other’s preferences, simply
be yourself.
I drank the special plum wine in the shop and listened to Jin Xuyan telling me what he had seen and heard abroad, what happened to him when he was a child, and how his parents gave birth to him at the age of 45 and spoiled him into lawlessness. His parents died when he was eight years old, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law brought him up. When he was young, he competed with Jin Yelei for favor and bullied his nephew vigorously. The eldest brother and sister-in-law were always partial to him, scolding Jin Yelei, “No big or small, that’s your uncle.”
I listened to his funny stories and laughed as I listened. Finally, I burst into tears and said to him with sobs, “I also have a brother named Xuan Xuan..” For
eight years, I have never mentioned Xuanxuan to anyone. Even when I was with Jin Yelei, I never told him about it.
Xuanxuan is like a brand in my heart, and it hurts when I touch it.
I don’t know how much I drank, and I don’t know how much I told Jin Xuyan about Xuanxuan.
I only remember that in the end I fell on the table, holding Jin Xuyan’s sleeve with one hand and the air in front of him with the other hand, “Those who killed him..” One by one.. I won’t let it go..
21
Approaching the New Year, Zhang Chundi asked Du Lan for ten million yuan as hush money, and she kept threatening Du Lan with Xuanxuan’s death. Du Lan was tortured to lose patience, she also saw that the greedy Zhang Chundi will never be satisfied, so she could not resist the hand.
Du Lan asked Zhang Chundi to meet alone. I asked the private detective to install secret monitoring software on Zhang Chundi’s mobile phone in advance. Not only recorded their conversation, but also recorded Zhang Chundi’s struggle when she drank the poison prepared by Du Lan and was dying.
The police broke into the house and arrested Du Lan on the spot. Zhang Chundi saved her life in time for rescue.
She came forward to testify that Du Lan ordered her to make almond pie and cheat Xuanxuan to eat it eight years ago.
Xuanxuan only ate a mouthful and found something wrong and refused to eat again. The insane Du Lan asked Zhang Chundi to hold Xuanxuan down and stuffed the almond pie into his mouth. The
final verdict came down. Du Lan was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve for murder and attempted murder, and Zhang Chundi was sentenced to 10 years in prison for co-murder. Jin Xuyan has not been idle for
more than half a year. He began to track down a tattoo on the wrist of the person who had intended to kidnap me, and even uncovered a criminal gang composed of professional criminals. So Du Lan has one more charge. Even Linda, the cousin of Du Lan who drugged me at the beginning, was caught together.
Justice is late, but fortunately it is not absent.
After this incident, my father seems to have aged ten years.
Du Lan is in prison. Xie Xinni had a big belly and cried all day complaining that Jin Yelei didn’t care about her at all, and the whole Jin family looked down on her.
Finally, on a rainy night, Xie Xinni and Jin Yelei had a fierce quarrel. Jin Yelei left in anger. Xie Xinni rolled down the steps when she chased him out.
The baby was aborted. The Jin family gave Xie Xinni a sum of money as compensation, and then went through the divorce formalities.
My father did not get the support of the Jin family, and Lixin Group was declining day by day, just struggling to support it.
I resigned from the new position, and after several years of experience and contacts, I am confident to start my own business.
My father asked me to stay. “Yanyan, Du Lan has been brought to justice. She has paid a heavy price for what she has done.”. Nini is also depressed, and you are the only one in this family. If you stay, Lixin will be yours.
I looked at the man in front of me with nothing but disdain. “Those who should be brought to justice are brought to justice, but can those who have not been punished by the law escape the condemnation of conscience?”
His whole body shook and his whole body went bent. It was his weakness and appeasement that killed Xuanxuan. He doesn’t deserve to be a father.
Jin Xuyan drove to the door and waited for me. I opened the door and sat in the co-driver’s seat. Looking at the Lixin Building through the car window, I took a long breath. I finally got rid of this place and never had anything to do with it again. As soon as
Jin Xuyan started the car, a fat body rushed over and lay on the front cover of the car.
Jin Xuyan was startled and braked to stop the car.
My mother, Wang Yuyan, rushed over and frantically beat the window on my side, crying with snot and tears: “Yanyan, Yanyan, you can’t ignore your mother!”! The loan sharks
said they would cut off my hand if I didn’t pay back the money.
I rolled down the window and said, “What does your gambling debts have to do with me?” Seeing that it didn’t work,
my mother wiped her nose and put on another face.
She pointed at my nose and shouted, “You are a white-eyed wolf.”. I gave birth to you and raised
you, but I didn’t enjoy any happiness. Believe it or not, I’ll go to court and sue you for abandoning your parents
so that you can’t hold your head up in this life.
I laughed. “Don’t I give you two thousand yuan a month for living expenses?” What’s
that money enough for? You don’t have enough to eat, and you think your mother is a beggar
. My mother is indignant.
Then go to court and sue me. I am now unemployed and have no fixed assets. According
to the law, as a child, I have to pay you about 800 yuan a month in alimony
. When my mother was stunned, I rolled up the window and told Jin Xuyan, “Drive!”
Jin Xuyan started the car and jumped out with one foot on the throttle, leaving my mother still in a
daze.
“If she asks you for money, don’t listen to her.” I told Jin Xuyan.
Chin held the steering wheel in one hand and my hand in the other. “Don’t worry, I understand
.” Not everyone
in this world deserves to be a parent.
I am very unfortunate to meet such parents. If I hate them, I hate them more than I hate Du
Lan. But because of this blood relationship that I can’t choose, I can’t kill them all. This is my sorrow, but also Xuanxuan’s sorrow.
I turned to look at Jin Xuyan next to me. His side face was really beautiful. His nose was high and chiseled
.
Feeling my gaze, he turned his head and gave me a warm smile.
I smiled and held him back and clasped his fingers.
At this moment, I reconciled with my life. Life has brought me a lot of misfortune, but I
am also very lucky to meet him.
