Chapter 65
Chen Hui is coming to her home to pay a formal visit and become their godparent. Li Jiantao and his wife attach great importance to this.
Li Jiantao also sent people to investigate Shen Hui's family background, but the Shen family's "headquarters" in Europe was too "mysterious", and it was even found that they were related to several ancient European families. Before Li Jiantao could stop, his business in Europe was "hindered".
Naturally, I understood that this was a 'warning' from the other party.
Li Jiantao thought that he was a decent person. He would not dare to say that he had no interest in Shen Hui's wealth. After all, businessmen value profit. Li Jiantao had not expected that his unreliable boy could become strong and good friends with Shen Hui.
I also made it clear that if he could change his mind and marry Chen Hui home, it would be a great help to the Li family.
To be honest, Li Jiantao even suspected that the family business inherited by Chen Hui would most likely surpass his own, especially with Chen Hui's recent moves in the business world and her large donations.
At first, Li Jiantao didn't care about Chen Hui's series of actions such as providing benefits to employees and allocating housing.
It's just the most effective shortcut to corporate public influence. Chen Hui's business is not big, with only a hundred employees at most. How much does it cost to buy a building? It's just one or two small goals.
However, by doing so, not only private enterprises will be offended, but also state-owned enterprises.
If this continues for a long time, I'm afraid I'll make a lot of enemies.
I am still too young and don’t understand some of the inside tricks.
But the subsequent actions made Li Jiantao look sideways, especially Guo Chenglin, the professional manager beside Chen Hui.
The ability of this young man should not be underestimated. His impressive resume is enough to make even Li Jiantao himself extend an olive branch to win him over.
It's a pity that my own little brat is not up to the standard.
I had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and find a godparent.
If it was half a month ago, Li Jiantao would dare to say that Chen Hui took advantage of him.
But now, he is not so confident as to say such words. He thought the matter of godparents was over, but he did not expect that the child was so committed to his promise. Thinking of this, Li Jiantao sighed again, it would be great if she could become his daughter-in-law.
As Li Jiantao's bedmate, how could Zhou Jinyi not know what he was thinking?
"The fate between a man and a woman is not something we elders can decide. Don't you know your own son well? How can you expect him to settle down without ten or eight years? In my opinion, it is much safer to adopt her as a goddaughter or a godparent than a daughter-in-law. Otherwise, even if you force them together, if your son does something to offend her in the future, you will become enemies."
"You're the one who spoils me!"
"It's as if I can spoil him by myself. I don't know who was responsible for that incident, but they almost put him on display." Zhou Jinyi rolled his eyes at Li Jiantao.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get. The child is from both of us, so if it's good, it's because the father has a good child, and if it's bad, it's because the mother is too kind and has a bad child!
"I don't know who said that they only have this one son, and they worked so hard just to make sure that he would not suffer and live a happy life. So, didn't our son do that? Isn't our son less worrying than those who mess around or even break the law? Isn't he living according to your expectations?"
"Alright, alright, I just said something and you wait for me to say something, okay, okay, even if I was wrong, it's not okay."
"What do you mean you are wrong? Tell me for sure whether you are wrong or not. You said this as if you were wronged and gave in to me. What did I say wrong? Did you say these words at the beginning? No matter how disappointing my son is, he has never lost money in any project he has handled or in his own small company. Are you not satisfied with this?"
Li Jiantao opened his mouth and then stopped talking.
This action did not calm Zhou Jinyi down, but made him even angrier. He pushed him directly and said, "Why don't you say something? Are you annoyed by me? Are you using the cold shoulder?"
"No, no, no, yes, yes, I was not careful in what I said. Don't be angry. Xiao Shen will be here soon." It's so difficult to be a man! Li Jiantao sighed in his heart.
"I tell you Li Jiantao, just be content."
"I didn't say my son was bad, it's just that his private life is too chaotic. He's almost 30 years old, and he's still not settled."
"Heh." Zhou Jinyi sneered and looked at Li Jiantao. "Don't you remember that your son fell in love early in junior high school and took the girl to see a concert, causing the girl's parents to come over. What did you say after you apologized? Do you want me to recall it? As expected of my son, Li Jiantao, he is charming and popular with girls.
What else? Even if I get the girl pregnant, at worst we can give birth to the baby and raise the child! Are you the one who said all these bullshit? If you ask me, it's retribution for not having grandchildren to hug you now. If I hadn't beaten him up severely and taught him carefully after this incident, I tell you, your son would not only have been spoiled into a second-generation rich kid, but he might also have been a legal expert. ”
Zhou Jinyi became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he even had the nerve to say that "a loving mother often spoils her child."
If she hadn't given in to her son's sexual affairs and let him know what it meant to respect women, her son would probably have been in jail by now.
"You didn't teach him well. Even if you taught him well, he wouldn't still be playing around like this." Li Jiantao was a little unreasonable, but he still grumbled in a low voice in dissatisfaction.
"Why didn't he teach me well? Now it's a matter of mutual consent. Over the years, have any of the girls around my son been unwilling? Moreover, even if they are no longer together, he is very generous. Just tell me, over the years, has any of his former girlfriends said anything bad about him? When they met in public, they all greeted and chatted with each other with a smile.
If a man is unmarried or a woman is unmarried, what's wrong with finding a few more girlfriends? At least they didn't force their daughter to go abroad like the Lin family did, nor did they make others set a trap to bring back a child like the Gao family's youngest son. ”
"Yes, yes, you are right." Li Jiantao was completely defeated.
Zhou Jinyi snorted coldly, "It's good that you know. I don't want to waste words with you. Do you think my clothes look better, this one or the one I wore just now?"
“They all look good.”
"Forget it, forget it. I can see that you are not serious." Zhou Jinyi waved his hand and went to the cloakroom to change clothes.
Chen Hui here also changed several sets of clothes in succession, and finally chose a black and white dress from the CHANEL23 series, which looked elegant and dignified.
In addition to the top-quality ambergris that she prepared at the beginning and the century-old wild ginseng that Chen Hui exchanged for points, thinking of Li's mother, Chen Hui also took out the pearl necklace that she had bought at the Cartier jewelry exhibition before and prepared to give it to Li's mother.
But giving three gifts doesn't sound good. After thinking about it, there is also Li Siming.
To be honest, I don’t have many gifts suitable for men.
After thinking about it, she thought of Zhang Nan. She made an appointment with Zhang Nan to meet tomorrow to hand over her RV and Wrangler.
Not knowing whether he had arrived in S City today, Chen Hui sent him a WeChat message directly.
Zhang Nan was also in Murui Huating at this time. After seeing Chen Hui's WeChat message, he knew that she came to S City and prepared to invite her to dinner in the evening.
There was nothing shameful about visiting the Li family in the evening, so Chen Hui told Zhang Nan about it.
[No wonder when I asked Brother Li out, he said he was busy. The Li family had already announced their relationship with Shen Hui, so Zhang Nan didn't know that today was their first official meeting. Of course, Chen Hui would not be so foolish as to tell anyone about this.
After knowing why Chen Hui came to see him, Zhang Nan suddenly felt a little jealous. He wished he had such a generous sister.
[Whether it succeeds or not, please ask Brother Zhang to keep it a secret.] ]
[Don’t worry about this, girl. There is a Bugatti Noctilucent in S City. It is the only one in stock in the whole of China, and its price is about 200 million. In addition to this car, there is also a Koenigse XR, which can be purchased for less than 60 million. Girl, look? ]
Zhang Nan deliberately mentioned the Bugatti Nocturne, and also wanted to test the depth of the relationship between Shen Hui and the Li family.
Besides, the ones who benefit are all his buddies anyway. If Chen Hui really spent a lot of money to buy the Bugatti Night Voice and gave it to Brother Li, it would mean that her relationship with the Li family is more reliable than the current rumors.
Then I naturally have to change the way I treat her. In the past, I did that for Brother Li's sake.
After that, I treated him as my own.
Since she has decided to give a gift, Chen Hui will naturally not be stingy. It’s only 200 million.
[Bugatti Dark Night, I don’t know much about this car, could you please trouble Brother Zhang to help with the formalities, can I get it tonight? Chen Hui glanced at the time. It was almost 23:00.
[Half an hour. After Zhang Nan asked Chen Hui for the room number, he called the owner of the car dealership.
After some bargaining, the price of the car was set at 280 million.
Zhang Nan came up personally and handed the car keys to Chen Hui.
"I really troubled you this time, Brother Zhang. If you need any help in the future, I will definitely do my best to help you as long as I can."
"You are Brother Li's sister, which means you are Zhang Nan's sister. Can I let you call me Brother Zhang for nothing?"
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhang Nan knew that Chen Hui had something important to attend to that evening, so he naturally made an appointment to talk again tomorrow.
After seeing Zhang Nan off, Chen Hui prepared to leave for the Li family.
Li Siming was originally going to come over to pick him up, but the plane was delayed.
Because of this, Li Jiantao directly cut off Li Siming's pocket money for three months. Li Siming complained to Chen Hui about this. Chen Hui found it quite funny and laughed, asking him if he still needed that little pocket money.
Li Siming said that Chen Hui was talking without any pain in her waist. Now his female companion was not as sensible as Meng Meng. She was a little younger, but she was not stingy with money. In the past, he could buy Meng Meng a bag worth tens of thousands of yuan and she would smile all day long. She had a big appetite and only wanted Hermès bags.
There is no way. The novelty of getting it has not yet worn off, and Li Siming is also very concerned about it.
According to him, he never acts on his body, but only on his heart.
It's just that his heart is too fickle and he's not loyal.
In response to this, Chen Hui sneered and complained about him with Gao Man and others.
Be it Li Jiantao or Zhou Jinyi, even if they are the richest man in S City and the former richest man in China, their aura is nothing compared to the "Huanhuan" Princess Moza of the Middle East. Naturally, Chen Hui, who has seen the "big world", performed very well.
Zhou Jinyi had just taken out a pair of rare and top-quality imperial green jingle bracelets as a gift for Chen Hui, when Li Siming came home exhausted.
Li Jiantao glared at Li Siming without leaving any trace and said nothing more.
After all, Chen Hui is here, so she has to save some face for her disappointing son.
After Chen Hui accepted the gift, she also took out the gift she had prepared.
Li Jiantao did not open the two brocade boxes he gave him. Zhou Jinyi knew they were the high-end jewelry of the Ka family just by looking at the packaging. What woman doesn't love jewelry? She smiled and opened them and asked Chen Hui to help her put them on. The more she looked at them, the more she liked them.
Holding Chen Hui's hand, he said, "Daughters are the best. Daughters are caring." The more he looked at Chen Hui, the more he liked her. He suddenly regretted not having a second child.
The deep affection between mother and daughter made Li Siming feel sore.
"Sister, as a brother, don't I have any gifts?"
Without waiting for Chen Hui to speak, Li Jiantao said, "As a brother, how dare you ask your sister for money when you don't prepare a gift for her?"
Zhou Jinyi also echoed, "You went out to play, but you didn't bring anything back for me as a mother, and you still have the nerve to ask your sister for it."
Li Siming suddenly felt that no one loved him.
"Mom, I don't agree with what you said. Tell me, are you in need of something nice? Have you ever liked the gifts your son gave you?"
Zhou Jinyi chuckled, "If you really want to bring me a gift, I'll accept it even if it's just a baked sweet potato. It's strange that I'd be happy if you don't give me a sugar-coated bullet when you're in trouble or short of money." She ignored him and turned to hold Chen Hui's hand lovingly, "Daughters are the best. They have good taste. Didn't Siming say that you're going to the auto show the day after tomorrow? If you like a car, let Siming buy it for you. As a brother, he should spend some money."
"No, Mom, my dad just deducted my pocket money for three months." Then he looked at Chen Hui and said, "Sister, don't take what I say seriously. It's not that I'm stingy, but I'm short of money recently."
Chen Hui knew that Li Siming was going to invest in Huaxing's annual movie, and naturally knew that he was really short of money recently.
But seeing him acting funny, I couldn't help but laugh.
Then he took out a car from his bag and handed it to Li Siming, "Brother is so pitiful, so I will give this car to him."
Li Siming took the car keys and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Bugatti Night! Is it true?"
Li Siming was really shocked by Shen Hui's generosity!
This is at least 200 million yuan, and you just give it to yourself?
He has been eyeing this car for a long time, but unfortunately the money has to be used for investment, otherwise he would have bought it anyway.
"You are so nice." Li Jiantao said to Li Siming when he saw him put the car keys in his pocket.
Although Li Jiantao didn't know much about cars, he knew that Bugatti was very expensive.
"Why shouldn't I be so nice to my own sister? Dad, please restore my pocket money. Otherwise, how can I give my sister a gift the next day?"
Li Jiantao angrily threw a bank card to Li Siming, "I tell you, it's all for your sister. If you dare to spend it recklessly, I will cut off your pocket money in the future."
Li Siming took the card and shook the bank card at Chen Hui with a proud look on his face.
The Li family wanted to befriend Chen Hui, but they didn't act like elders.
Chen Hui is polite and Zhou Jinyi likes her more and more, and Li Siming is playing tricks on her. The atmosphere was harmonious and not awkward. It can be said that both parties were extremely satisfied and comfortable with this meeting.
Zhou Jinyi knew Chen Hui's background, and seeing that she was not as petty as he had imagined, he naturally became more sincere towards her.
Chen Hui could sense the difference between true and false feelings, and she decided in her heart that as long as the Li family remained unchanged, she would be willing to treat the Li family as real relatives.
In the evening, Li Jianming sent Chen Hui back to Murui Huating. He knew that she had met Zhang Nan, and he also understood in his heart that it was Zhang Nan who helped him get the car.
After sending Chen Hui off, I went straight to Zhang Nan’s room.
The matter of the car was not mentioned. Li Siming was not a fool and naturally understood what Zhang Nan meant.
"Just this once."
Zhang Nan also expected Li Siming's attitude and nodded, "Don't worry, Sister Shen will also be my Zhang Nan's biological sister in the future."
The two men raised their hands and bumped fists at the same time. There are some things that don't need to be said between brothers.
The Zhang family has been hovering in the imperial capital for so many years, and they must have some connections with that.
Chen Hui also wants to develop in City B, so Zhang Nan will have to take care of her when the time comes. After all, it is easier to deal with the King of Hell than with the little ghosts.
If you meet someone who is blind, it will be a waste of time and effort if you capsize in the ditch.
What's more, with Lin Lin's example in front of him, Zhang Nan, as a man, naturally felt uneasy when he saw that Lin Lin, a girl, dared to "risk everything" like this.
Perhaps he could fight for the title of heir to the Zhang family.
Even if I fail, the worst that can happen is that I can seek help from my brothers. As a man, why would I be afraid of starting over again?
If I could get Chen Hui's help, my hope of success would be even greater.
Of course, some things don’t need to be said explicitly, everyone understands it tacitly and it’s business as business.
In the battle of the mall, if the supporting party wins, the people behind them will also benefit.
