Chen Xia was woken up in the ward by the tickling of Xiao Youyou's hair.
He was truly exhausted. After all, his butt was bruised and the bleeding was quite extensive. Furthermore, he had been secretly cleaning and calculating the "pirate treasure" in the middle of the night when no one was around, leaving him too exhausted to even get a good night's sleep.
Now the whole journey involved both airplanes and cars, and the shaking made him fall into a deep sleep, which even scared Gu Lin.
After all, Gu Lin was a nurse by profession and could always tell the difference between the living and the dead. She was just too concerned and panicked. When she heard that her husband had been shot abroad, how could she not be anxious?
So when Chen Xia opened his eyes and saw his little daughter's chubby face, before he could pinch her, Gu Lin's angry oval face appeared in front of him.
"Chen Lao Er, you've become more capable now, haven't you? Tell me, where did you go this time? Why did you get shot? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Chen Chun also looked frustrated, poking Chen Xia's head repeatedly with his finger:
"Are you tired of living or are you just bored? You actually went to a war zone? Luckily, he hit the butt. If he had hit somewhere else, what would you have done with Gu Lin and the children?"
"Hey, hey, hey, big sister, stop poking me. I beg for mercy. I won't dare to do it again next time."
"snort!"
"snort!"
The eldest sister and wife turned away angrily, and only Chen Dong, who was standing beside them, clapped and cheered.
Comrade Chen Chun's Nine Yin White Bone Claw used to poke his head, but now the situation has changed and it finally pokes Chen Laoer's head, which makes him feel refreshed.
Chen Xia had already noticed his younger brother standing next to him, who was gloating over his misfortune, and he was so angry that his teeth were itching.
I'm not having an easy life, and I won't let you have an easy life either.
"Wait, wait, Lao Si, how were your college entrance exam results? Did you get into university?"
When this was said, Chen Dong's expression did not turn bad as expected, but he raised his head proudly:
"Brother, please don't underestimate me, okay? How could I possibly bring shame to our family? The scores are out, 514 points, I passed the second-tier line."
Well, Chen Dong is pretending to be stupid.
But Chen Xia didn't forget to criticize him: "Second-tier university, what's the point of a second-tier university? You can't even get into Zhijiang University. The best you can do is Yuezhou Teachers College, right?"
Chen Dong picked up Youyou and said calmly:
"Then I don't care. Big sister said it's up to you to decide where to go to university. If the arrangement isn't good, it's not my problem, it's yours. Right? Youyou, try to get into a second-tier university in the future, okay?"
Chen Ziyou particularly likes this good-tempered uncle: "Okay, Youyou will also take the entrance exam for a second-tier university in the future."
Chen Xia and Gu Lin were both confused...
At this time, Chen Jiang also came over, and then the eldest aunt came with her two daughters.
Not long after, gifts from wealthy families such as the Xu family, the Li family, and the Zheng family also arrived.
There is no impenetrable wall in this world. The news that Chen Xia was shot and injured and transferred from Singapore to Margaret Hospital quickly spread throughout Hong Kong.
Who is Chen Xia? He's the mainland's spokesperson in Hong Kong. Such a prominent figure, it's impossible that he was shot because of a social conflict, right?
They imagined the process of being shot as "sacrifice for the country". So, humans are the most complicated animals. These old guys can think of other things even for a small thing.
But the gifts they sent were really not cheap.
Chen Xia looked at the hundred-year-old wild ginseng and was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had a container for this thing and could get as many as he wanted. This was really like a flood flushing the Dragon King Temple.
Chen Shuqin was a little worried: "Xiao Xia, the Zhou family's attitude seems a little subtle this time. They didn't even send anyone to give a gift."
The Zhou family, Zhou Jewelry, was once the largest jewelry store in Hong Kong and Chen Shuqin's former employer.
When Caiyunzhinan first opened its business, its own strength was too weak. In order to avoid provoking the local tyrants, it only sold jewelry such as jade, and did not sell gold, silver and diamonds.
However, with the strong rise of Four Seasons Group, Caiyunzhinan was no longer satisfied with small-scale operations and began to slowly get involved in the lucrative diamond and gold industries.
Now, both jewelry stores are positioned as mid-to-high-end brands, forming a direct competitive relationship with Zhou Jewelry.
For Four Seasons Group, Caiyunzhinan Jewelry Store has degenerated from a "cash cow" to an "ordinary subsidiary".
But for the Zhou Group, the jewelry industry is one of their main businesses and their core interest.
Now "Caiyunzhinan" has surpassed Zhou Jewelry in terms of store numbers, turnover, annual profits and brand influence, and has opened stores in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Southeast Asian countries.
This is a matter of stealing jobs. Competitors are enemies, and the relationship between the two companies quickly became cold.
Chen Shuqin was worried, but Chen Xia didn't feel anything at all. What if it was the Zhou family? What if he was one of the top ten richest people?
It would be fine if everyone competes fairly in business and relies on their own abilities.
If the Zhou family does anything shady, Chen Xia now has plenty of ways to destroy their family and make them completely wiped out from Hong Kong like the Wang family of Wing Lung Bank.
At this time, Marcia, vice president of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, also rushed to the hospital.
"Chen, this is terrible. I heard you were injured, so I rushed here as fast as I could."
"Ms. Marcia, this injury of mine should be considered a work-related injury, right? You have to take responsibility for it."
"Hahaha, Chen, don't worry. If you want, I can charter a plane to send you to the United States right now."
The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the staff from both sides tactfully left the ward.
Marcia sat directly next to Chen Xia and used her eyes to indicate whether this environment was safe.
Chen Xia nodded, indicating that this was their own hospital and there would be absolutely no problem.
"Chen, was this the Lansha City tragedy you did?"
"Yes, I think we should not only bring back all the stolen equipment, but also teach them a lesson so that these black monkeys won't try to target us in the future."
Even though Marcia was mentally prepared, she still gasped and called out "Holy Mother Mary" in her heart. There were more than 20,000 casualties.
But as a workplace elite, she knows that personal emotions are useless and should give way to reason and the interests of the company.
"Chen, although I'm surprised, I still want to say that you did a great job. Have we got all our equipment back?"
Chen Xia nodded. "We've got them all back, but since there are over a hundred containers in total, it'll take some time for them to arrive in Hong Kong. You can just send someone to transport them away when the time comes."
Marcia was so shocked that she could fit an egg in her mouth. She thought that the power behind Chen Xia was so amazing and terrifying.
"Chen, I, can I ask, how did you do it?"
"Marcia, this is my secret and I can't tell you. Just prepare the check and all the equipment will be delivered to you. I hope our two companies can start production soon."
