Chapter 247 When will you finally let my mommy go?
"Tongtong, you're so rude!" Xie Jinghuai's phoenix eyes widened, and he became angry.
When my son was very young, he was very gentle, well-behaved, and sensible.
When exactly did Tongtong's personality change, becoming so arrogant and rude, even bullying classmates? She keeps talking about whether she deserves it or not, showing absolutely no manners!
Compared to Fu Chenzhou's son, he was even more unbearable to look at!
Seeing his father's anger, Xie Junheng panicked and became flustered, his face turning pale. However, in front of Fu Yansi, he didn't want to show weakness, so he could only raise his chin and stubbornly maintain his composure.
Lin Zhixin quickly tugged at the man's sleeve and looked around, "Brother Jinghuai, don't talk about Tongtong here. So many people are watching, even a child has pride..."
However, Xie Jinghuai had no intention of giving Xie Junheng that face, and coldly rebuked him:
"Xie Junheng, don't make me say the same thing twice!"
At this moment, Fu Chenzhou, who was holding his son's hand, finally smiled faintly, seemingly unconcerned:
"Mr. Xie, if the child doesn't like it, don't force him, it's okay."
It would have been better if he hadn't said anything; once he did, Xie Jinghuai's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
However, Xie Junheng suddenly walked up to Fu Chenzhou, raised his small face filled with resentment and anger, and asked through gritted teeth:
"Mr. Fu, can your son have some self-awareness? Can he stop bothering my mother? No matter how much he likes her, my son is still me. What does he have to do with it?"
Fu Yansi's heart skipped a beat, and she blushed with embarrassment, tightly grasping her father's large hand.
Fu Chenzhou simply glanced at him calmly, his handsome face remaining undisturbed.
Xie Junheng continued his attack: "And Mr. Fu, when are you finally going to let my mother go? Don't you know that your actions have caused my father a lot of trouble? Do you think what you did was right?"
Fu Yansi was breathing heavily indignantly, about to retort, when Fu Chenzhou subtly squeezed his small hand.
This is a signal to him not to act impulsively.
Fu Yansi was filled with resentment, feeling that Xie Junheng was just taking advantage of his being a child to insult his most beloved father!
Seeing Tongtong getting close to Fu Chenzhou and his son and going all out, Xie Jinghuai not only did not stop him, but also curled his thin lips into a cold smile.
However, Lin Zhixin's expression was too natural.
She would rather Xie Junheng, that brat, keep quiet than have him go to Fu Chenzhou and say something like, "Give Mommy back to him."
Doesn't this just mean that Jiang Shiyuan still has a place in this kid's heart?!
Fu Chenzhou remained silent for a long while, then slowly bent down and met the child's eyes:
“Xie Junheng, it’s great that you were brave enough to say that you want your mommy back. If your mommy heard you say that, she would be very happy and pleased.”
Xie Junheng was suddenly taken aback.
In the past, when faced with his provocation, this man would become enraged and speak harshly, causing him to lose his composure in public and embarrass himself greatly.
However, he was surprisingly calm and readily accepted his rudeness, which made his cheeks burn and his heart feel very uncomfortable.
"But I want to tell you that I have never clung to your mother, and I have never interfered with any of her choices in life."
Fu Chenzhou looked at him intently, her voice gentle, "As long as she wants it, as long as you love her and respect her in the future, she will always be your mommy. No one can take her away from you."
After saying that, the man took his son's hand and turned to leave.
Xie Junheng stood there in a daze, staring at Fu Chenzhou's tall, reassuring back. His small heart trembled slightly, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Tongtong? Tongtong?" Lin Zhixin stepped forward and called him softly.
Xie Junheng snapped out of his reverie and looked up blankly, "Aunt Xinxin..."
Lin Zhixin forced a smile. "We should go."
"Oh... okay."
The moment Xie Junheng turned around, he seemed to see that Xie Jinghuai's eyes were redder than before. He wasn't sure if he was mistaken.
The family of three got into the Rolls-Royce and drove towards Guanlan Garden.
Seeing Xie Jinghuai's gloomy expression, Lin Zhixin assumed she was in a bad mood because of seeing Fu Chenzhou, so she gently suggested:
“Brother Jinghuai, don’t you and Tongtong both love eating fresh seafood? I know a newly opened upscale restaurant where the bluefin tuna and sea urchin are incredibly fresh and delicious. I’ve made a reservation, let’s eat here before going home.”
Seeing that the man remained silent, Lin Zhixin asked the child for his opinion, "Tongtong, what do you think?"
Xie Junheng recalled Fu Chenzhou's words. He, who was usually a little glutton, suddenly lost his appetite. However, not wanting to spoil Aunt Xinxin's mood, he could only nod absentmindedly.
Lin Zhixin's face lit up with joy. "Brother Jinghuai, let's go over there now."
"You take Tongtong with you. I have to go back to handle some official business, so I'm not going." Xie Jinghuai looked out the car window, his eyes dark and his interest waning.
Lin Zhixin's expression stiffened. "Brother Jinghuai, what's wrong? Is it because you were unhappy when you saw President Fu earlier?"
You should know that this man would grant her every request, no matter how small!
What's wrong with me today...?
"Can't I refuse?" Xie Jinghuai suddenly turned his eyes, a hint of restlessness surging in them.
Lin Zhixin's heart tightened, and she bit her lip.
...
After Fu Chenzhou went home to have dinner with his son and finish his homework, he was called back to the Imperial View Manor by Han Xiangyi.
In the past, he would never have gone back, but now the situation is different.
If he wants to seize the throne, he needs to align himself with the Fu family. He needs to not only gain Fu Lixian's trust but also enter the core of the Fu family.
Only in this way can he gradually reclaim the dignity that was trampled and crushed in his youth.
As soon as Fu Chenzhou entered the living room, Han Xiangyi came to greet him with unsteady steps:
"Ah Chen, you're finally back."
"Why did he suddenly call me over?" Fu Chenzhou asked coldly, his attitude towards his mother still distant.
"Stop with all that 'heh heh' and 'that.' With your cold attitude, you'll never win your father's favor!"
Han Xiangyi complained and said in a low voice, "I only overheard it, it seems to be about investing in a new project. Your father called your older brother into the study, and your older brother seemed to say that he wanted to invest in some company... After your father heard this, he scolded him severely, saying that he had no vision."
"What company?"
"What's this called, something eternal..."
Fu Chenzhou's gaze was cool and aloof, and he curled his lips into a smile.
Han Xiangyi repeatedly instructed, "When you see your father later, you must go along with what he says and not bring up anything that might offend him. Especially that Yongheng Company, don't mention it at all, understand?"
"I know what I'm doing."
Fu Chenzhou coldly uttered four words and walked straight upstairs.
Han Xiangyi watched her son's departing figure with a resentful look in her eyes, clutching her clothes tightly.
As Fu Chenzhou reached the study door, he heard Fu Lixian's reprimanding voice coming from inside:
“Achong, you are my son on whom I have placed great hopes! And now you are the president of the Fu Group. Every decision you make must take into account the overall situation and the economic interests of the group. Even if it is ten million or twenty million, you must make sure that it is spent wisely. You can’t just throw real money into a fire! If you lose money, it’s better to donate it to charity and at least gain a good reputation!”
"Dad, it's only 20 million, not a lot of money. Let's invest in Eternal to test the waters."
Fu Chong's voice was unconvinced, "Their CEO Jiang introduced their company to me, and it sounded pretty good. Right now, they just lack funds. But if they have enough funds, they can definitely create value."
Fu Lixian: "President Jiang? What President Jiang?"
"It's Xie Jinghuai's..." Fu Chong hesitated, then stopped.
It's as if the name Jiang Shiyuan is something that can't be presented in a respectable way.
Standing in the shadows outside the door, Fu Chenzhou's face was frosty, and his ten fingers slowly clenched.
"Could she be Xie Jinghuai's woman?!"
Fu Lixian snorted angrily, her tone filled with disdain, "What future can you expect from investing in a company run by a woman who doesn't uphold traditional virtues and flirts with other men? Are you out of your mind?"
"dad……"
No one knows a son better than his father. Fu Lixian saw through his little scheme. "Achong, your investment is just a pretense. Your real purpose is to get your eye on that woman, isn't it?"
Fu Chong is arrogant and domineering outside, but he turns soft in front of me, looking embarrassed and as if he's been seen through.
"Dad, I..."
Fu Lixian was so angry that he smashed an expensive teacup, splashing tea all over Fu Chong, making him look disheveled.
"You filthy bastard with a brain full of sluts! How can investing be a game? You're actually obsessed with women, throwing money into a fire pit for some used-up woman, just to pick up girls? You're utterly ridiculous!"
Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, Fu Chenzhou seized the opportunity and slowly knocked on the door.
