Chapter 179 The Calculation Between Husband and Wife
Since getting the marriage certificate, Zhao Wan felt that her life was becoming increasingly difficult. The first issue was the termination of her contract with Xingyao Entertainment. Gong Wenjie happened to be very busy during this period and was not in City B, so he let her solve it herself and introduced her to a lawyer.
Zhao Wan wanted to wait until Gong Wenjie came back to help her solve this problem, but before the contract was terminated, she still had to follow the company's arrangements and continue to rush around for announcements. However, her pregnancy reaction was a bit severe and her body could not bear it.
But she couldn't bring herself to ask Gong Wenjie to give her 50 million yuan as a termination fee. Usually, he would give her things on his own initiative. So, Zhao Wan was still being reserved, waiting for Gong Wenjie to bring up the matter, but he seemed to be too busy and had forgotten about it.
Zhao Wan felt a little aggrieved, but she couldn't tell her parents. She didn't want her parents to think that she had chosen the wrong person. Besides, Gong Wenjie was just too busy this time and neglected it. So, Zhao Wan paid the penalty herself, feeling very aggrieved.
Fortunately, the lawyer that Gong Wenjie introduced to her was very capable and helped her negotiate with Xingyao Entertainment. In the end, the penalty for breach of contract was reduced from 50 million to 35 million. The main reason was that the company felt that her personal commercial value was not high, so Xingyao Entertainment made a profit by getting a penalty of 35 million.
Despite this, Zhao Wan still felt very painful. If it weren't for the dowry given by the two elders of the Zhao family, she would not be able to afford the money.
In addition, Zhao Wan had another unhappy thing, which was related to Qian Muchue. She originally thought that after marrying Gong Wenjie, the gap between her and Qian Muchue would be narrowed, but she didn't expect that she would still have to live under Qian Muchue's shadow.
Before, Zhao Wan and Qian Muchue were comparing their acting careers, but now that they are both pregnant and have suspended their acting work, the things they are comparing have changed to other things.
Gong Wenjie praised Qian Muchue's company in front of Zhao Wan more than once, which made Zhao Wan very angry. When they were dating before, Gong Wenjie always praised her and belittled Qian Muchue. What does this mean now?
"Wenjie, do you dislike me and don't love me anymore? That's why you always mention that bitch Qian Muchue in front of me." Zhao Wan finally couldn't stand it anymore and said aggrievedly with red eyes.
Since she became pregnant, her overall condition has been much worse, not as glamorous as before. Zhao Wan has always been very concerned about her appearance, so she couldn't help feeling a little anxious. Gong Wenjie always praised other women in front of her, which made her even more likely to overthink things.
Seeing that Zhao Wan finally couldn't hold it in any longer and exploded, Gong Wenjie knew the time was ripe.
"Wan'er, I love you so much, how could I despise you? In my heart, you are much better than Qian Muchue. I am very happy to marry you. I just feel that Qian Muchue is too lucky. She is not as good as you in every way, but because she chose the right industry and relied on Chuxin Technology, she can now make money while lying at home pregnant." Gong Wenjie first confessed with a gentle face, and then deliberately said that Qian Muchue was lucky to set a hook for Zhao Wan.
Sure enough, after hearing what Gong Wenjie said, Zhao Wan's attention was diverted to Qian Muchue's Chuxin Technology Company.
"How is she lucky?" Zhao Wan certainly thought that Qian Muchue was lucky. The company she and Zhao Xi opened was thriving, and even Zhao's father praised it at home. The now popular live streaming sales was also the business of Qian Muchue's company.
Zhao Wan didn't know why Qian Muchue was so lucky, but after listening to Gong Wenjie's words, it seemed that there was another mystery.
So, Gong Wenjie belittled Chuxin Technology and said that it was just a popular business, which was why it made so much money, and Qian Muchue actually did not have much ability.
When these words reached Zhao Wan's ears, it became that live streaming to sell goods was very easy to do and very profitable. Qian Muchue, an incompetent person, could make money. The reason why Gong Wenjie didn't do it himself was because he was very busy. Besides, they were all members of the Gong family, and it was not easy for him to compete with a woman for business.
This made Zhao Wan unhappy. Why should they worry about Qian Muchue? Whoever has the ability should earn the money. Since Gong Wenjie is worried about the Gong family, it doesn't matter. She doesn't care about this relationship.
"Wenjie, how much money does it cost to set up a company like this?" Zhao Wan asked curiously. She wanted to know if the money she had was enough.
Seeing Zhao Wan taking the bait, Gong Wenjie was happy in his heart, but his face was tense and he didn't show it.
"The initial investment was a bit high, mainly to sign some internet celebrities, but all these investments are worth it, and the profits are much higher than the investment." Gong Wenjie said seriously.
He deliberately exaggerated the initial investment. Zhao Wan didn't understand anyway, so she would definitely let him manage the company. Then he could use the extra money to make up for the money he had misappropriated from Mingyue Decoration Company.
After hearing what Gong Wenjie said, Zhao Wan said that she wanted to open a company like Chuxin Technology. It happened that she was pregnant and had nothing to do. Gong Wenjie deliberately acted hesitant and said that it would be bad to snatch Qian Muchue's business.
Zhao Wan was angry and acted like a spoiled child. Finally, Gong Wenjie acted like he had to compromise and promised her that he would help her manage the company.
I have to say that Zhao Wan's personality is sometimes a bit twisted. She may not be so enthusiastic about things that others ask her to do, but she is very active in doing things that others don't let her do.
Just like this time, because Gong Wenjie did not recommend her to do it at first, Zhao Wan seemed to be afraid that he would go back on his word, so she immediately started to start a company. Gong Wenjie asked Wang Tengfei to help Zhao Wan run errands.
Qian Muchue invested 50 million yuan at that time, and Gong Wenjie told Zhao Wan that she needed 100 million yuan. Zhao Wan did not have so much money, so she asked her mother to borrow it. Of course, she also thought about asking Gong Wenjie to give some money, but the other party said apologetically that the funds were all outside and would not be returned until the end of the year.
Zhao Wanke couldn't wait that long. When her mother saw that her daughter wanted to start her own company, although she was not very optimistic about her daughter's ability, as a mother she had to support her. Of course, she didn't tell Zhao's father about this.
Even with the money given by Zhao's mother, it was still not enough for Zhao Wan, so she had no choice but to mortgage the dowry property in City A to the bank. Gong Wenjie was of course aware of her actions. Seeing her collect money, he also roughly estimated how much cash Zhao Wan had.
This should be the biggest investment Zhao Wan has ever made. She basically put in everything she had. With the money in place, Zhao Wan's new company was quickly opened. As for the operation, as Gong Wenjie expected, he hired someone to take charge. Zhao Wan couldn't even understand the financial accounts.
On the other side, Qian Muchue, with an almost eight-month-old belly, could no longer go to the company every day like before. It was not because of her health, but because her belly was so big that the company's employees did not dare to report to her if there was anything.
So, she now spends most of her time at home, and shows up at the company every now and then, just as exercise. Now, apart from Grandma Qian, she is the one with the most free time at home. The youngest, Qian Xiaoya, has to go to kindergarten every day on weekdays.
That day, when Gong Chen returned home from get off work, he saw his wife and daughter sitting on the furry carpet and sharing snacks.
