In this story of daily life during the 80s, the once fat and ugly Chu Xuan is reborn in a small fishing village in 1983. In this life, she doesn't want to cause Mu Chenze's family to be rui...
Mu Chenze said with gratitude, "Boss Hou, thank you for your trust and for giving my family the opportunity to make a fortune. However, we've already decided to go abroad after the New Year. If we leave a month or two later, we'll have to go through a lot of paperwork again. Besides, my mother-in-law has arranged a client meeting for us, so the time can't be changed..."
I said a lot of things, but to sum it up in one sentence, I politely rejected Boss Hou's kindness.
Boss Hou looked helpless but very anxious in his heart. If Mu Chenze didn't agree, how could he carry out the task assigned by the boss?
The boss asked him to trick the Mu family and Chu Xuan's family during the first month of the year.
By the time Mu Chenze and his wife returned from abroad, the first month of the lunar year had already passed.
After seeing Mu Chenze off, Boss Hou went back to his office and drank a cup of tea to calm himself before driving out.
He had to find a way to contact his boss and report the situation.
Find a public phone booth and make a call.
Someone answered the call soon.
But it wasn't the boss's voice.
"Hello……"
Boss Hou lowered his voice and said, "I'm Monkey, and I'm here to report to the boss."
"The boss hasn't come back yet."
"Haven't you gone back yet? The situation with the task my boss assigned me has changed. Please tell my boss and give me a chance to report the details."
"The boss doesn't listen to any excuses. He demands absolute obedience from his subordinates without any reason. You'd better find a way to solve it yourself! I won't tell the boss for you."
With a click, the phone was hung up.
Boss Hou's face looked a little dark.
Let him solve it himself?
How could he alone stop Mu Chenze and his wife from going abroad after the New Year?
He knows his own limitations and knows that he can't do it with his abilities.
Unless the boss takes action personally.
The boss was not in, so he could only call again another day.
I hope it’s the boss who answers the phone next time.
If I meet the person who answered the phone today again, I still won’t help him convey his message.
At this moment, Mu Chenze has already boarded the bus bound for the farmers' market, where Lin Yong is purchasing goods.
After a while, Mu Chenze took Lin Yong's car back.
After arriving at the farmers' market stop, Mu Chenze went to a nearby public telephone booth to make a call.
The voice changed to a woman's. "Hello! Is Miss Liu here?"
Asking this intentionally.
"Are you looking for Liu Zhenzhen? She's on a business trip with President Gao."
"When will you be back?"
"I was supposed to be back today, but she just called and said she had something to do and would be back tomorrow. Why don't you call her tomorrow?"
"OK, thanks."
After Mu Chenze hung up the phone, he couldn't help shaking his head. Xiao Liu was indeed a woman.
Mr. Gao and Xiao Liu will not return to Hai City today, but tomorrow.
Are you going to play here today?
Regardless of whether they are out for fun or not, it has been confirmed that Boss Gao is not a serious person.
Half an hour later, Mu Chenze met up with Lin Yong.
They bought another batch of New Year's goods.
I plan to sell out this carriage and stop purchasing.
When Lin Yong's truck passed by the city hospital, Mu Chenze saw a familiar face.
It’s Boss Gao.
However, Boss Gao didn't see him.
At this moment, Boss Gao's attention was all on the woman next to him.
Carefully protect it.
Mu Chenze discovered that the woman was the driver Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu put his hands on his stomach.
Mu Chenze’s first reaction was that Xiao Liu was pregnant with Boss Gao’s child.
"Brother Lin, can you pull over for a moment? My stomach hurts and I need to go to the bathroom."
Lin Yong immediately pulled over and pointed in the direction of the hospital. "The hospital is the only toilet around here, let's go!"
"Okay."
Mu Chenze took the toilet paper, got out of the car, avoided Boss Gao and Xiao Liu, and ran towards the hospital.
Instead of going to the toilet, I went straight to the obstetrics and gynecology clinic.
There was only one female doctor on duty, and Mu Chenze lied without blushing, "Hello, doctor! I came here to ask about the precautions during my sister's pregnancy. My brother-in-law is careless, and I'm worried he might have missed something."
The doctor was enthusiastic, "Your sister has a good brother! What's your sister's name?"
"My name is Liu Zhenzhen."
"Oh, she just left a while ago. Your brother-in-law is a relatively attentive man. He asked a lot of questions. Don't be too nervous. I can see that your brother-in-law cares about your sister very much."
"But my sister was lying down yesterday because she was vomiting. My brother-in-law must not have treated her well."
"Your sister is only over fifty days pregnant, so she's definitely going to have morning sickness. It will get better in the fourth month..."
Mu Chenze thanked the doctor and left.
He jogged all the way back to Lin Yong's car.
After arriving in the county town, Lin Yong’s two family members were waiting at the agreed location.
After unloading half of the New Year’s goods, I went to the county market to set up a stall.
Lin Yong pulled the remaining half to the town.
There were also family members in the town waiting at the agreed location in advance.
Mu Chenze and Lin Yong work well together.
One company provides the money, and the other company provides the car, manpower and labor.
It's still a 50-50 dividend split.
This time, Mu Chenze didn't let Lin Yong send him back to the village because he had something to do.
After separating from Lin Yong, Mu Chenze found a public phone and contacted Chu Chuanbei who was still in Beijing.
"Chuanbei, when are you going abroad?"
"Brother Chenze, what a coincidence you called me. I'm flying abroad early tomorrow morning."
"I want to ask you about someone."
"No problem, as long as I know them, I will tell them everything I know."
"Do you know Gao Zhenbang? His ancestral home is in Jing City, but he currently lives in Hai City."
"You've asked the right person. I know him. He just took over a trading company in Su Province."
"Does he have a wife?"
"Of course there is! It's a pity that his wife is infertile. She's over 40 years old and still has no children."
"What's his character like?"
"His character? He's taken his mother's last name since he was a child, and he's very filial to his parents, especially his mother. But as for his wife, I heard he's been looking for women. He specifically looks for young and fertile women, changing one every year. His wife's family has no support, so they can only turn a blind eye. Fortunately, he gives his wife living expenses on time every month, otherwise his wife would be even more miserable..."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Chenze finally figured out the whole story.
Liu Zhenzhen went on a business trip with Gao Zhenbang. She didn't know she was pregnant before they came. She vomited all over yesterday and only found out today when she went to the hospital.
So the trip was delayed for one day.
At this moment, Gao Zhenbang accompanied Liu Zhenzhen into the hotel room.
He helped Liu Zhenzhen to the bedside, and after she lay down, he spoke, "Zhenzhen, when I get back I'm going to divorce my old hag and marry you. So that we can have a child legitimately."
Liu Zhenzhen's face was moved, "Zhenbang, you are so nice to me!"
Gao Zhenbang's eyes fell on her belly. "If I don't treat you well, who will I treat well? From now on, my property will belong to our children."
Liu Zhenzhen covered her mouth and laughed, "Am I honored because of my son?"
"That's right. I, Gao Zhenbang, have sworn that I will treat whoever bears my child well for the rest of my life. So, Zhenzhen, you must protect the baby in your belly."
"I definitely want to do it. But I'm afraid your wife will beat me when she finds out. By then, I won't be able to protect the child just because I want to."
"She's been occupying the title of Madam Gao for so many years. It's time for her to move on. Don't worry! She doesn't dare to hit you. I know her weakness."
