"Since we are already husband and wife, and we have already become a community of interests, in the future we will definitely have the honor and disgrace to work together, to advance and retreat together. If you win, the world will belong to you and me. If you lose, both of us will have to bear the burden. These few years, the development of the Hangcheng economy has become more and more rapid, especially the rise of the Internet, which has caused a huge impact on our physical enterprises. As you can see from the financial statements of the Xu family every month, profit growth has been particularly slow these years. It's the same for Golden Age. Although they have improved a lot in the past two years under my control, their support has been tremendous. Many long-term investments have failed to achieve the desired results and the product development cycle has been extended, resulting in massive human waste. I think it would be better to merge the two companies into one, and unify the holding, so it would be easier to manage, wouldn't you say? " Sheng Yun said.
"The Xu family was the hard work of my father in the past, and I finally managed to take it back from Xu Changsheng. If it wasn't for the pregnancy, I wouldn't have left the game. I had intended to go back to work about six months after the birth, when my body was almost fully recovered. But once I merge them, won't I return to my former position in Golden Age and become one of your subordinates? " I hesitated.
Sheng Yun looked at his watch, then took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to me. "Wife, this is a feasibility report that I've asked someone to prepare. You can study it at home for the next few days. "I feel that since we have already become husband and wife, it means that we are already a community of interests. The larger me doesn't have anything to do with the smaller me, it's all for the sake of us being able to leave Zaizai and Qian Jin a foundation in the future. I want to become a leader of the domestic industry, I need the help of my wife."
After Sheng Yun said this, he gave me a deep kiss on the forehead and said: "This report contains the projects that I plan to invest in for the next five years. My current thought is that we must not lose our main line industry, but we still need to vigorously develop our branch industry to obtain profits to support our main line industry. "
"Go ahead and busy yourself. After I've finished reading the report, we'll discuss it later, okay?" I looked at Sheng Yun and said calmly.
Sheng Yun nodded. After kissing me for a while, he hurried away with his briefcase. I accompanied him to the door and watched him drive away before returning.
Now that there were three more nannies in the house, it became much more lively. When I came back, they were gossiping about something that had happened at the house of the former employer.
"Aiya, you guys don't know, my former boss and the Lady Boss were both very powerful. Later on, the boss ran out of money in business, but he didn't tell her. He even lied to the Lady Boss that he wanted to invest in a very profitable project." The Lady Boss trusted her husband so much that she really gave all her savings to the Boss. In the end, within half a year, the Boss lost everything. Now that the car and the house have been auctioned off by the court, the boss will take the money and go abroad by himself. The boss will drag the two children, one big and one small, to tears every day. In the past, the boss would invite seven or eight Filipino servants to the house.
Sister-in-law Cao's description should be vivid, listening to my heart "thump".
I stood at the entrance. They probably thought Sheng Yun and I were going out, so they didn't worry about anything.
"That's why I'm talking about this woman, don't trust your man too much. My previous boss was the same, I raised a mistress outside, and every day when I returned home, I would pretend to be a good husband, coaxing the Lady Boss to hand over the management of the company to him, and then directly kick the Lady Boss. Until now, the two of them are still in court due to divorce." "That's why I said that men are just coaxing ghosts. The wealthier they are, the more ideas they have. Really, they're not as good as us." Mrs. Zhang said.
"I feel that our current boss and the Lady Boss are pretty good. Even though the Lady Boss is already so fat, she still treats her so well." Sister Cao said.
"They're still young, who knows. Only after a long time had passed did he finally understand who the other party was. The people of today's world were all people who didn't know the face of the person and didn't know the heart of the person. I heard that our current Lady Boss is also very powerful. If she was just an ordinary woman, do you think the Boss would treat her so well? I don't think so. This man is much more shrewd than us women. " Sister Li said.
"..."
The three of them chatted excitedly while I stood in the hallway and listened to their conversation with fear in my eyes.
I coughed twice, and they immediately fell silent. When I walked through the entrance, their faces were filled with a guilty and flattering smile.
I laughed as I took the gold from them and sat down. "What were you talking about just now? Why don't you tell me the story of your previous employer, I'm also very interested. "
At first they were probably afraid I was going to blame them, so I started off with a gossip about the bankruptcy of an entrepreneur, and they broke the ice and told me all about their previous employer.
I talked to them for a long time, and the more I talked the more flustered I became. Everyone said that the poor couple had all sorts of things to mourn. Wealth was actually a test of true love.
Every woman in these stories has a microcosm of me, some self-made women, some rich second generations. However, without exception, when a woman wholeheartedly trusted a man, it would be the beginning of her downfall.
Of course, there were also couples who did not give up on poverty and wealth, but the proportion was too small.
Sheng Yun, could it be the one in a thousand exception?
Should I choose to believe, or should I retain a portion of my trust to protect myself? I returned to my room and picked up the feasibility report. After reading it for a long time, my heart struggled.
At this moment, I received a call from Ling Yue. Ling Yue said on the other end of the phone: "Little fatty, I heard you were born today? "Big brother, I want to invite you out for a meal. There's something that must be of great interest to you."
"What is it?" Are you trying to sow discord again? " I said snappily.
"It's black, I said it's not white, it's white, I said it's not black. If I wanted to sow discord, wouldn't you know when you came? " Ling Yue's tone remained as casual as ever, and then I heard him say mysteriously, "I promise, this trip will be worthwhile for you."
"Alright." Somehow, I agreed to it.
CHAPTER 255 - WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE YOU
That evening, I let the driver drive me out to meet Ling Yue.
Ling Yue asked me to go to a Thai restaurant. When I arrived, Ling Yue had already arrived.
This is the first time I have formally left home after childbirth. Although I have gone through some meticulous dressing, I am still filled with a strong sense of lack of confidence in my current self.
Ling Yue waved at me from afar. His face still had the same cynical expression, his silver hair stood out in the restaurant, and his face was still as beautiful as a painting.
I walked over and sat across from him. I looked at him and said calmly, "Go ahead."
Ling Yue looked at me with a playful expression. His lips curled up into a smirk as he said: "It's been so long since we've seen each other. Did you miss me?"
"Stop being so poor, let's get straight to the point!" I said to him, "I have to go home later. I don't have much time to chat with you."
"Although Fatty is fat, his personality hasn't changed. He's still so domineering, I like him." Ling Yue winked at me, then looked at me mysteriously and said, "I say, you've been pregnant for so long, have you noticed any changes in your husband?"
"What are you trying to say?" I asked.
"Nothing, I'm just reminding you not to trust m
en too much. The dumbest thing about you women is that you give birth to a child for a man. How would you know if someone else is doing the same thing for someone else? " Ling Yue said with a smile.
"Ling Yue, is it interesting for you to sow discord like this? I know what your goal is, you just want to use the relationship between me and Sheng Yun to weaken Golden Age's competitiveness, so that Sheng Yun won't be able to stand up to you. " I looked at Ling Yue and said with a frown.
"NO, NO, NO …" Wu kept shaking his finger, then he smiled at me and said, "If you think that way, you're wrong. I, Ling Yue, don't need such a despicable method to think of anything. I was really just reminding you out of goodwill on account of us having a relationship. I hope that Xu Changsheng's tragedy doesn't happen to you, it's true. "
"Why should I believe you?" I looked at Ling Yue and asked coldly.
"It looks like... The photo I gave you last time didn't wake you up, but it doesn't matter. I still have quite a few photos here. Ling Yue still had a casual tone, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
But if it had nothing to do with him, why did he come again and again to provoke her? What was his purpose?
It was as if he had turned into a mage. He suddenly took out several photos, but they were all facing me from the back. While he was admiring the photos, he said, "Tsk tsk, there's so much information. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it. Shubei, what should we do? I love you so much. Having given birth to two children for someone else, in the end, only this can be achieved. "
I snatched the photos from him. When I saw the pictures, I was stunned!
There were a total of three photos. One of Sheng Yun and Lin Sexi, who looked like me, were secretly taken while they were eating in the restaurant. One of them was where the two of them walked into the hotel together. They were secretly photographed playing golf together.
These photos were not very intimate, but it proved one thing — Sheng Yun was very close to this woman. But he never mentioned it to me.
My heart thumped.
I stared at the two people in the photo. The feeling in the photo was the same as Sheng Yun and me before.
This woman does resemble me in every way, but who is she?
"The restaurant in the photo, that's where we are. We're sitting where they sit when they eat. " Ling Yue said.
"How did you get hold of these pictures? Why did you give it to me? " I looked at Ling Yue and asked.
"You don't have to worry about how I did it, I have my own channels." Ling Yue smiled, then looked at me and said, "The point is, why is your husband with this woman, and more than once. Clearly... Your husband was attracted. "
"This is impossible!" I was shocked. I looked at Ling Yue and shook my head with all my might. "Nonsense!"
"You know best whether I'm spouting nonsense or not. Your own man, of course you know him best. I just wanted to give you a reminder. I heard that Golden Age has plans to merge your Xu family together. "I don't think you can agree. As far as I know, Golden Age invested billions into a project last year and faced a huge loss. Your husband is probably in a rush right now, but this Lin Sexi …" When Ling Yue said this, he suddenly stopped and didn't continue talking.
"What's wrong with Lin Sexi? Who was she? Ling Yue, is she trying to imitate me? " I asked loudly.
"This Lin Sexi's background is not small," Ling Yue took a mouthful of soup and then said lightly, "I heard that this Lin Sexi is the illegitimate daughter of the chairman of a big Asian consortium, but … It's just that I've heard, whether it's true or not, I'm not sure. However, what was certain was that this Lin Sexi … I've been keeping an eye on you and Sheng Yun for a long time. "
"To Sheng Yun and me? "Why?" I couldn't help but ask.
"In this world, you are not the only ambitious woman. They also want to do something big and find a man that you women think is reliable. "Lin Sexi, you've fallen for your husband." "But Xu Shubei, you already have two children, you have no way out."
"Tell me everything you know about her!" I shouted at Ling Yue.
"Don't worry... Come, come, come. Let's eat first and try out the taste of the dishes here. " Then he picked up a piece of lemon meat and put it in my bowl.
After that, Ling Yue went around a lot and finally told me about Lin Sexi's information.
This Lin Sexi was once related to me. She was also an orphan when she was a child. Like me, she was taken in by Xia's mother. She grew up to be 10 years old in an orphanage. Then, he was secretly taken away.
At this point, Ling Yue gave me a secretive smile and asked: "Do you remember anything?"
Lin Sexi … I suddenly remembered that once in the orphanage, there was a skinny girl with short hair cut to her ears who liked to follow me because she had a jade bell around her neck, which we all called a little bell.
I was a few years older than she was, and she kept calling me sister. After Xia Yiwa left, I had the best relationship with her in the orphanage.
Only one day I took her up the hill with me, and by the time I reached the bottom, she was gone.
Xia's mother looked for her for a long time and called the police as well. However, she seemed to have disappeared into thin air and never appeared in the orphanage again.
I was sixteen and she was ten.
Her sudden disappearance was a mystery to me, and it made me feel guilty for a long time that I hadn't taken care of her properly.
But later, she heard Xia's mother say that she had sent back a letter saying that she was doing well and that she hoped Xia's mother would keep it a secret from her when she was in the orphanage.
When I learned that she was doing very well, I let go of the worry in my heart. In these few years, she had disappeared into the vast sea of people, never to be heard from again.
I didn't expect this Lin Sexi to be the little bell from back then.
Back then, she was very thin, Xia's mother once said that she looked very similar to me, but I didn't notice that year.
Who would have thought that when she grew up, she would become another me? And we will meet in this way.
"I remember," I said lightly, and then asked Ling Yue, "The chairman of a big consortium? Surnamed Lin? "
"Yes, his surname is Lin." Ling Yue looked at me and smiled. "Do you know who it is?"
I nodded, startled.
The name of the consortium was Tian Hong Capital. It was a very strong overseas capital. Its chairman was surnamed Lin and was named Lin Shaoxiong.
I know this information because I saw it in the report Sheng Yun gave me.
At the beginning of the year, Tianhong Capital spent a lot of money to buy 10% of Golden Age's shares.
"This Lin guy, he's so awesome …" Ling Yue sighed and said, "You said that Golden Age would not engage in industry, but would instead engage in tourism development. Was this Sheng Yun being toasted by this Lin fellow? Or was it because I was completely bewitched by this woman that I lost my head all of a sudden? "
It's been over a year since I've asked about the company's operations. I've still been paying attention to the accounts of the Xu family, but I've never paid attention to Golden Age's me.
I don't know anything about the current situation, but according to what Ling Yue said, if this Lin Sexi is really Lin Shaoxiong's illegitimate daughter, then it means one thing … Sheng Yun definitely wouldn't be able to kick her away. After all, Tianhong Capital already had a stake in Golden Age.
Why did Sheng Yun suddenly accept someone else's investment? Was it due to the need for strategic deployment, or did Golden Age encounter a crisis?
If he really was in danger, then why didn't he tell me the truth when he proposed merging the Xu family?
The more I thought, the more confused I became.
At this time, Ling Yue suddenly stood up, grabbed my shoulder and said to me: "Don't let Golden Age merge your company! Remember my words! Otherwise, the one who will suffer in the future will be you! "
CHAPTER 256 - FIRST SKI
RMISH
Ling Yue's sudden reaction brought me back to reality. Seeing him so nervous, the doubt in my heart deepened.
There were two possibilities for this: one was that everything was really as Sheng Yun had said; the other was that Ling Yue had provoked me again and again in order to deliberately create a conflict between Sheng Yun and me.
Either way, I can't let my guard down.
After calming down, I looked up and smiled at Ling Yue.
Ling Yue was stunned: "What are you laughing for, it's scary."
"Have you met this Lin Sexi before?" I looked at Ling Yue and asked, "Your surname is Ling, and her surname is Lin. Although the words are different, the pronunciation is very similar. "It can't be that you sent this Lin Sexi to Sheng Yun, right?"
I raised my eyebrows and looked meaningfully at Ling Yue. I closely observed his reaction. His expression turned stiff, and he immediately started laughing as well.
He took the opportunity to pinch my face and said smilingly, "Didn't you say you were dumb for three years? Didn't you turn stupid as well? To be able to think of such a thing. "
"Adults only pay so much attention to their own interests that they become nosy. "Since you are so concerned about my personal matters with Sheng Yun, I think your motives and motives are impure." I slapped his hand away and smiled.
"You're right, my motives are impure, but that was before. You are no longer attractive to me. In the past, you could still be considered attractive. But now … "Tsk tsk, I can't bear to see that happen." Ling Yue shrugged and said helplessly.
He was trying to hit me, I understand. However, this sort of blow felt really uncomfortable in his ears.
Perhaps men are so realistic that when you are flirtatious, they will come and go for you; once you are old, you will face the end of a life of desolation.
It had been like this since ancient times.
"Don't think that I will change the subject just because you intentionally hit me. Let me ask you, what does Lin Sexi have to do with you? " I asked again.
Ling Yue leaned on the sofa and looked at me with amusement. He tapped the table with his slender fingers and teased, "What do you think? What do you think I have to do with her? "
