Time flies like an arrow; six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the conference room at Founder Investment.
Kang Bo stood at the front, his voice resounding: "Over the past year, our company has achieved tremendous success in all aspects, whether it is in terms of company size, capital management, or the returns on investment projects."
"This is all thanks to President Chu's capable leadership. Without President Chu's leadership, we could not have achieved such results..."
After Kang Bo finished his report, Chu Zhi met the gazes of the company's senior management and said calmly, "The company's development to where it is today is thanks to everyone's efforts. I only made a small contribution."
Even so, many high-ranking officials still looked at him with admiration.
Six years ago, Chu Fang handed over Founder Investment to Chu Zhiye. The entire company was worried about Chu Zhiye's ability to control Founder Investment.
Six years later, Chu Zhi has delivered a perfect answer.
Under his leadership, Founder Investment has reached new heights, even surpassing the rapid growth of the company under Chu Fang's leadership, and has become renowned within the industry.
Chu Zhi ignored the admiring looks in his subordinates' eyes, waved his hand, and signaled the meeting to end.
At 5 p.m. as usual, he left work on time and drove home.
I'm going home for dinner tonight.
As night fell, he returned to the villa and immediately saw Chu Jin holding a wooden stick, chasing after a child who seemed to have just learned to walk.
When the child saw Chu Zhiye come in, his eyes lit up, and he rushed into his arms, calling out in a childish voice, "Uncle."
The child's name is Shao Kun, and he is the son of Chu Jin and Shao Xiang.
After Chu Jin graduated from university, the two got married and soon had a child.
"Good boy." Chu Zhi also pinched Shao Kun's nose.
"What a load of crap! I'm so angry!" Chu Jin rolled her eyes. "I was live streaming, and this bastard barged in and shut down my computer. Do you know how many points I lost? Those are my lifeline."
Shao Kun got off the ground and went towards Chu Jin, opening his arms as if to hug her, saying, "Mom..."
"Mom, you're a piece of cake." Chu Jin raised her right foot.
Chu's mother passed by, tilting her head: "Eh? Is this related to me?"
Shao Kun collided directly with Chu Jin's right foot and fell to the ground.
He plopped down on the ground, his lips trembled, and he cried.
Just then, Shao Xiang returned home and saw his son sitting on the ground crying. He immediately went to hug and comfort the child, but Chu Jin yelled at him to ignore him.
Shao Xiang could only watch helplessly as his child cried.
As Shao Kun cried, he suddenly realized that no one was paying attention to him, so he stopped crying.
Chu Jin was quite satisfied with her son's behavior: "This kid deserves a beating! He's asking for it!"
Zhong Tingyue was stunned and said to her daughter: "You deserve a beating too."
He then said, "Now that everyone has gone home, let's have dinner."
The family began to eat. As the Chu family grew and multiplied, every time the whole family ate together, the table was always full, requiring a large table to be occupied.
The table was laden with all sorts of delicious food.
Zhong Tingyue held her grandson Shao Kun and fed him. The latter pointed to the extra spicy Cao's duck neck in Zhong Rou's bowl.
Zhong Rou's eyes lit up, and she immediately picked up some braised food with her chopsticks and put it in Shao Kun's mouth. The boy swallowed it in one gulp, but spat it out in less than a second.
Zhong Rou: "Kid, you've gone too far, wasting food."
"Zhong Rou, are you even human? Feeding a child Cao's duck neck!" Zhong Tingyue punched her sister in the chest, then quickly went to give her grandson water to relieve the spiciness.
“He asked for it himself.” Zhong Rou pouted. “Kids are such a hassle, you have to take care of them. Who does he think he is? That’s why I don’t want to get married.”
"You don't want to get married? No, it's just that no man wants to marry you," Chu Fang said calmly. "What man wants to marry a tomboy?"
Zhong Rou adopted a affected manner: "Oh dear, brother-in-law, don't praise me too much, or I'll become arrogant."
Chu Fang: "..."
Chu Fang had no way to deal with his sister-in-law.
Zhong Tingyue turned to Chu Zhiye and said, "Son, you're not young anymore. It's time to find a girlfriend. You can't stay single like your stepmother. Look at your stepmother, is it appropriate for her to be single like this? It's not appropriate!"
Gao Ruoyun nodded: "Yes, that's outrageous."
Gao Ruoyun has now given up on the idea of letting her daughter get married; she only wants to use various excuses to criticize her daughter.
Chu Zhi raised his head, and everyone in the room looked at him.
He smiled and said, "Mother, I'm still early."
"You're already twenty-five, it's getting late."
How long have you and Dad been married?
“That’s different.” Zhong Tingyue hoped to persuade her son, then turned to Chu Fang, “Mr. Chu, what do you say?”
Chu Fang said calmly, "I think the wine I brewed myself is quite good."
Bang!
Zhong Tingyue punched Chu Fang.
The family reunion dinner passed by noisily.
After finishing his meal, Chu Zhi didn't linger and left the villa directly.
... ...
Inside the bedroom of the villa.
Zhong Tingyue sat in front of the dressing table, taking care of her skin.
Although he is approaching fifty, time seems to have been particularly kind to him, leaving faint traces on his face, but it has not diminished his charm in the slightest.
Her beauty is an elegance that comes with maturity, possessing a charm that youth cannot match, while retaining the unique gentleness and allure of a woman.
"Mr. Chu."
"Um."
“We parents need to pay attention to Zhiye’s personal life. We can’t let him stay single forever. If he stays single, what if he ends up like Zhong Rou? That would be terrible.” Zhong Tingyue said worriedly.
Chu Fang, wearing reading glasses and watching various videos, replied, "Let him be."
Zhong Tingyue turned around: "Are you out of your mind? To follow him? The continuation of our Chu family depends entirely on our son, how can we let him have his way?"
"He doesn't want to get married, what can you do?" Chu Fang asked.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Tingyue's face showed disappointment.
She knows her son well; if he's willing, no one can stop him, and if he's not willing, no one can stop him either.
"Ugh... what should I do?"
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings; let them be."
Zhong Tingyue suddenly said, "But if your son doesn't get married, how will we go on a trip?"
"Huh? I almost forgot about that." Chu Fang sat up, his face serious. "No, Chu Zhiye must get married, immediately."
Zhong Tingyue: "... ..."
