Chapter 329: Particularly Practical

Su Ming's downfall caused a huge shock in the business community. His company's stock price plummeted, investors withdrew their capital, and partners quickly distanced themselves from him. Su Ming, who was once so successful, has now become a "rat crossing the street" that everyone avoids.

As the police further investigated, more of Su Ming's illegal acts were revealed one by one. He was eventually sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment and fined hundreds of millions of yuan. In order to reduce the penalty, Su Ming had to transfer his shares to Fan Shuiguang as compensation.

After Fan Shuiguang got Su Ming's shares, she was so excited that she could hardly speak. She held my hand tightly, tears in her eyes: "Sister, thank you! If it weren't for you and Brother Yichen, I really don't know what I would do."

I smiled and patted her shoulder: "Silly girl, this is all the result of your own efforts. We just helped a little."

Jiang Yichen also came over, his tone gentle but with a hint of teasing: "Shui Guang, you really became rich overnight. But don't forget to treat us to a meal."

Fan Shuiguang burst into laughter and nodded repeatedly: "Of course! Not only will I treat you to a meal, I will also treat everyone who has helped me!"

A few days later, Fan Shuiguang held a grand celebration dinner at a high-end restaurant. In addition to Jiang Yichen and me, she also invited Qin Yu, Xiao Tiantian's team, and some friends and partners who had supported her in the past.

At the dinner, Fan Shuiguang raised his glass and gave a speech, his voice choking: "Today, I stand here with a heart full of gratitude. Thank you to my friends for not giving up on me when I was in the most difficult time; thank you to Mr. Jiang and Gu Mo, without your help, I would not be able to get to where I am today; thank you to Mr. Qin, your professionalism and decisiveness make me admire you very much."

She paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "Today, I not only fulfilled my father's last wish, but also proved my ability. In the future, I will continue to work hard and live up to everyone's expectations!"

The audience burst into warm applause. I looked at her, feeling both relieved and emotional. The CEO, who was always decisive in front of others, has become even more powerful now.

After the dinner, Jiang Yichen and I sat on the balcony, looking at the night view in the distance. He gently put his arm around my shoulders and said in a gentle tone, "Wife, are you happy today?"

I leaned into his arms and nodded, "I'm happy. Seeing Shui Guang so successful, I feel very relieved."

He smiled, bent down and kissed me gently on the forehead: "You are always so considerate of others. But don't forget, we also have our own lives to live."

I looked up at him, a hint of mischief flashing in my eyes: "Why, are you jealous?"

He nodded in a serious tone: "Yes, I am jealous. You have to make it up to me."

I couldn't help but laugh and punched him lightly: "Fool."

Since the baby was born, the atmosphere at home has become particularly warm and busy. During this period, I was a little anxious because my breast milk became less and less due to physical reasons, and eventually I had no breast milk and could only feed my baby with formula.

That Sunday, the sun shone softly through the window onto the crib. The baby twisted his body, making a "woooo" cry, and his mouth opened and closed, obviously hungry. When Jiang Yichen heard the cry, he immediately put down his work and walked quickly into the room.

"Don't cry, baby. Daddy is here." He said softly, picked up the baby gently, patted the baby's back, then carefully placed the baby on the bed and prepared to make milk powder.

He picked up the bottle, rinsed it carefully with warm water, and then poured the milk powder into the bottle one spoonful at a time according to the proportions in the instructions, and then gently shook it to allow the milk powder to fully dissolve. He looked so focused, as if he was completing an extremely important task.

After preparing the milk powder, Jiang Yichen first dropped a drop of milk on the back of his hand, tested the temperature, and when he felt it was suitable, he picked up the baby again, let the baby lean comfortably in his arms, and put the bottle to the baby's mouth.

The baby immediately held the pacifier in his mouth and sucked greedily, his cheeks bulging. Jiang Yichen looked at the baby with a doting smile on his face and endless tenderness in his eyes.

"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry." He coaxed softly, occasionally using a tissue to wipe away the milk overflowing from the corners of the baby's mouth.

I watched this scene from the side, and my heart was warm. I never expected that the man who used to be so decisive in the business world would now be so gentle and patient in taking care of the baby!

After the baby was full, he burped contentedly, his eyes half open and half closed, and he seemed a little sleepy. Jiang Yichen gently patted the baby's back and hummed a tuneless lullaby. Soon, the baby fell asleep in his arms.

Jiang Yichen gently put the baby back into the crib, covered the baby with a small quilt, and then tiptoed out of the room.

He came to me, put his arm around my shoulders, and said softly, "Well, I took such good care of the baby, you should thank me."

I folded my arms across my chest and said, "What reward do you want?"

"Of course..."

He was too shy to say it out loud, but just paused and said: "I'll tell you in a while."

I figured it out with my toes and trotted around the room twice after him.

The next day, I continued to broadcast live. When I showed the last massager for pregnant women to the camera, the sweat on the back of my neck slid down my spine into my nightgown. This graphene product developed by a German team can accurately apply heat to the pubic symphysis. When I demonstrated the method of using it myself, the barrage was suddenly filled with "Sister is so hardworking". At the moment the countdown ended, the background data jumped wildly - the sales of a single game exceeded one million.

"Sister!" Xiao Tiantian rushed in holding a tablet, her ponytail swung out in a neat arc behind her head, "This is the third month after our transformation! The pregnant mother market really has unlimited potential!" Her voice was cracked, but I noticed the dark circles under her eyes - this girl has only slept three hours for three consecutive days.

I rubbed my aching waist. The incision from the cesarean section was aching slightly under my silk nightgown.

The memories of three months ago suddenly came flooding back: the sound of the alarms in the delivery room, the bulging veins on the back of Jiang Yichen's hand when he grabbed my wrist. But the fire burning in my heart at this moment was even hotter than the ecstasy of being a mother for the first time.

The phone vibrated in front of the makeup mirror, and the screen lit up with a message from Fan Shuiguang. Fan Shuiguang sent a new message after the last dinner, "Gu Mo, the Su Ming issue has been completely resolved, and the last factory equity left by my father has been taken back. I want to... transform the factory into a maternity and baby products company, and cooperate with you."

I stared at the screen, feeling extremely excited. This was a godsend opportunity - if I could control my own supply chain, I could truly break away from the limitations of being a live streamer. Jiang Yichen would definitely be very happy if he knew about this.
