Chapter 92: If you don't break up, you'll be kicked out of the group

Seeing Wen Rongsheng's face suddenly turn ugly, Chen Baoqin asked in confusion: "What happened?"

"Pah!"

Wen Rongsheng slammed the newspaper on the dining table, panting and saying: "Look at what your good daughter has done!"

Chen Baoqin's heart "clicked" and she reached out to pick up the newspaper. She looked at the headline and felt her eyes go dark. She looked at the two photos in the newspaper.

Chen Baoqin was very familiar with the background of the photo. It was downstairs of a property under her name, and this property was currently occupied by Wen Jiaqi. The surroundings of the photo were very dark, and only the street lights were on where the man was standing, so she could see the man's appearance clearly.

The man was quite tall, perhaps 1.8 meters tall, which was quite rare in Hong Kong. He looks pretty good, with a small face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He is obviously forty years old, but he still looks like he is in his early thirties.

No wonder Wen Jiaqi was confused.

Yes, the man in the photo is Lin Zhiming.

Chen Baoqin recognized him at a glance, not only because his name was written in the headline of the report, but also because she read a lot of old reports yesterday.

The more Chen Baoqin read, the more shocked she was.

Although there is no evidence that Jin Shiting is not mentally ill and that Lin Zhiming was responsible for her disappearance in the fire in the nursing home, who in the circle of wealthy families does not have eight hundred minds? How could she not see that Lin Zhiming is not innocent?

Her daughter is a fool. If she really stays with him, will there be a good result in the future?

Although Chen Baoqin wanted her daughter to suffer and learn a lesson, she was also afraid that she would be fooled by Lin Zhiming, after all, this man was really good-looking. Chen Baoqin

knew that Wen Jiaqi's main reason for dating Lin Zhiming was that he could help her make money by investing in stocks, so after considering it, she decided to talk to Wen Jiaqi today, give her some pocket money, and let her break up with the man.

As a result, before she left the house, she saw the news that the two of them stayed overnight.

If there was only this one photo, Chen Baoqin could deceive herself and think that Lin Zhiming also happened to live in that community, but there was another photo next to it!

The photo next to it was taken during the day, and there was not only Lin Zhiming in the photo, but Wen Jiaqi was also there. The two were in an intimate posture, probably saying goodbye.

Putting the two photos together, Chen Baoqin couldn't deceive herself that Wen Jiaqi and Lin Zhiming had no relationship.

Chen Baoqin was confused when she heard Wen Jiadong, who was sitting opposite her, say, "Dongjiang Entertainment News?"

Chen Baoqin looked up and met the eyes of Wen Jiadong, who was half lying on the dining table reading the font on the back of the newspaper. Then she lowered her head and her eyes fell on the big words above the headline. Her mind was turning quickly.

In just two or three seconds, Chen Baoqin came up with a solution. She imitated Wen Rongsheng and slapped the newspaper on the dining table. With red eyes, she asked, "What does Wen Yue mean? Jiaqi is her biological sister. Why does she want people to report her news?"

Wen Rongsheng also blamed Wen Yue in his heart. Why didn't she understand the principle of not letting family shame be exposed? Every time something happened at home, other newspapers didn't react, but her newspaper would report it.

But Wen Yue was not here at the moment, so it was meaningless to criticize her, and it would be easy to put the cart before the horse, so Wen Rongsheng said: "What does this have to do with Ah Yue? Wen Jiaqi didn't associate with Lin Zhiming, so how could the reporter under Ah Yue's company take photos?"

Chen Baoqin's mind was quite clear: "Jiaqi's association with Lin Zhiming is one thing, and the reporter from Wen Yue's company reporting it is another thing, don't confuse the two things!"

"I will talk to Ah Yue about the company reporting this matter," but Wen Rongsheng was not so easily fooled, "What are you going to do about Wen Jiaqi's association with Lin Zhiming?"

"I, I..." Chen Baoqin was speechless after being asked. After a long while, she finally thought, "Didn't you say that you don't plan to care about Jiaqi?"

Wen Rongsheng choked and said after a while, "Okay, I won't care. Don't look for me if Wen Jiaqi gets into trouble in the future!"

After that, he didn't even eat the meal, asked the housekeeper to arrange a car and left.

As soon as Wen Rongsheng left, Chen Baoqin regretted it and turned to ask her son, "Should I have said those words just now?"

It's true that I shouldn't have said that.

But when Wen Jiadong thought of his father's attitude, he felt unhappy and said, "You are not wrong. Why can't you say it? I think Dad is partial. He thinks that whatever his precious daughter does is right, and whatever our family does is wrong."

Chen Baoqin's face changed, and she turned her head to look around. She breathed a sigh of relief when she thought that Butler Xu had gone to arrange a car. She whispered, "Don't talk nonsense, be careful not to let others hear it."

"I didn't say anything wrong, so I'm not afraid of being heard!" Wen Jiadong said with his neck stiff, but he frightened as soon as he finished speaking, and his voice lowered when he spoke again, "That's how it is. Xu Meifeng made such a big mistake, and Daddy didn't say to kick the two girls from the third room out of the house. The eldest sister just went out on a date and made such a fuss."

In fact, before knowing the truth, Wen Jiadong had a good relationship with the two sisters from the third room.

Earlier, that is, before he was sent to the UK, his relationship with Wen Yue was also okay. Although it was not as close as his relationship with Wen Jiaxin, there had never been any conflicts.

In a family like the Wen family that values ​​boys over girls, sons and daughters are always different.

Sons are naturally superior in status and can easily get more things than daughters, such as houses, shares, and inheritance rights.

In the past, when Wen Jiadong looked down on his sisters, he actually had a condescending attitude. He never considered them as competitors, so it didn’t matter to him whether they were the head of the family or not.

He was only slightly closer to Wen Jiaqi than to his sisters.

So after arriving in England, Wen Jiadong had always kept in close contact with Wen Jiaxin, and even found a girlfriend who was her schoolmate. He never thought that his sister, who was not in his eyes, would covet everything he had and put it into action.

Not only did he have a good relationship with Wen Jiaxin, he also got along well with Xu Meifeng.

Men can understand men best. Although Wen Jiadong liked men, he had never been loyal, so he could understand why Wen Rongsheng married several wives.

Before her true face was exposed, Xu Meifeng had always been gentle. In Wen Jiadong's view, the third wife had no son, which meant she had no competitiveness. So he was not like Wen Jiaqi, who would unite with her mother to target Xu Meifeng. He even didn't understand why they were so aggressive.

When he was in England, Wen Jiadong often went to the third wife's residence for dinner, so he was so angry after learning the truth. He couldn't sleep or eat well when he thought that Xu Meifeng was still alive, and he was upset when he thought that Wen Rongsheng asked Wen Jiaxin to move out for her safety.

Listening to her son's complaints, Chen Baoqin felt sore in her heart and her tears were about to fall.

Of course, she was also unbalanced in her heart, but what could she do? Men are inherently ruthless, let alone a successful man like Wen Rongsheng.

She stood up and walked around the dining table, holding her son and gently stroking his head, whispering, "Jiadong, don't be sad. Mommy has already found someone. After a while, Xu Meifeng will pay the price."

Wen Jiadong closed his eyes and said, "Okay."

...

Wen Yue was not surprised at all when she received the call from Wen Rongsheng, and she responded with ease.

"What? Can't expose it? On what grounds!"

Wen Yue asked three times in a row, and said very confidently: "Let's not talk about the relationship between Wen Jiaqi and I. Even if we have a good relationship, it is a private matter. It is a public matter for newspaper reporters to take pictures of news and report it. How can public and private be mixed up? Besides, when other newspapers take pictures of big news, the parties involved have to spend money to buy it out if they want to suppress it. Why should I suppress the news for Wen Jiaqi for free just because I have the same father as her? Dad, when you cooperate with Ah Huai, will you give him concessions because of me?"

Of course it's impossible. It's good enough that Wen Rongsheng didn't let Yi Huai give him concessions for Wen Yue's sake. Father-in-law giving concessions to son-in-law? Don't even think about it!

After a long time without Wen Rongsheng speaking, Wen Yue said, "Look, you are not willing to make concessions for my sake, why should I suffer losses for your sake?"

Wen Rongsheng said, "Will not all the money I earn now belong to you in the future?"

Wen Yue laughed, "Okay, when you read out your will and hand over the Wen family to me, I will suffer a little loss and tell my reporters not to expose the Wen family's secrets anymore. Now... I think it's better for father and daughter to settle accounts clearly."

Wen Rongsheng never said anything to Wen Yue, so he could only spend money to keep her safe, and asked her to contact him first if she took photos of her family in the future, and he would decide whether to spend money to buy them.

Wen Yue agreed happily, and the father and daughter barely maintained peace.

Wen Yue hung up the phone, and then she heard the system ask: [Are you really not going to expose gossips about the Wen family in the future? ]

Wen Yue asked in surprise: [When did I say that? ]

[Didn’t you promise your dad that if you have any gossip about the Wen family in the future, you would contact him first and see if he wants to buy it? ]

[Oh, I was just talking. ] Wen Yue said righteously, [Besides, I only promised my own newspaper not to expose the gossip. Whether other newspapers will report it or not has nothing to do with me. ]

She can refuse the exposure brought by the big gossip, but she has to make money and earn the value of eating gossip. Since it does not affect both ends, she will of course choose to have both.

The melon-eating system has been bound to Wen Yue for almost a year, and it has lost its original innocence and simplicity. It believes that it will be able to be a black-hearted good system when it binds other hosts in the future.

But after listening to Wen Yue's words, it feels that the road to learning is long and difficult!

...

The melon-eating value gained from exposing Lin Zhiming's stay at Wen Jiaqi's residence was not much, only a little over 200,000 on the first day.

This number sounds like a lot, but in fact, the sales of each issue of "Dongjiang Entertainment News" are around 100,000, and can rise to around 200,000 with big news.

This is the previous sales volume. After the public debate with the Feng family, the sales volume increased by tens of thousands, and this issue of "Dongjiang Entertainment News" sold less than 130,000 on the first day.

The news industry follows trends very quickly. Basically, if a newspaper breaks a big news in the morning, reporters from all over Hong Kong will rush to the person’s house before work starts, hoping to get the latest news first. If

other newspapers have new content, who cares if you are the first to break the news?

So although "Dongjiang Entertainment News" is a weekly, the sales volume on the first day is actually about the same as the sales volume of the first issue. This is also the main reason why Wen Yue added a daily newspaper. It

is really a loss to be a weekly. It’s okay if you can’t keep up with the trends of other newspapers. You finally dig up a piece of news, but the sales volume is gone after one issue. When the next issue of the newspaper is released, the news is already over.

In short, the sales volume of the issue that broke the news about Wen Jiaqi was only a little over 130,000 at most.

Two hundred thousand melon-eating values ​​seem to be more than the sales of 130,000, but the newspaper does not limit the number of readers. If the person who subscribes to the newspaper is a family, the number of readers of that newspaper is actually one multiplied by the number of family members, which may be two, or it may be four, five, or six.

If someone buys a newspaper and brings it to the unit, Wen Yue will get more melon-eating values ​​through this newspaper.

Therefore, when Wen Yue initially only broke the news in the "Dongjiang Entertainment News", even if the newspaper sales did not exceed 100,000 at most, she could still earn hundreds of thousands or even nearly a million melon-eating values ​​in one day.

The new issue of "Dongjiang Entertainment News" sold 130,000 copies of newspapers, but only earned 200,000 melon-eating values, which shows that many people who read the newspaper do not care about this matter, let alone have the desire to discuss it.

In other words, this melon did not ferment.

The reason is very simple. Although Wen Jiaqi is the daughter of the richest man and has always been very popular, the public has a general impression of her. In addition, her emotional experience is not poor, so people have no desire to know more about her.

When Lin Zhiming first sent his wife to the mental hospital, it was indeed a frequent guest in the newspapers, but after so many years, the incident has long been a stale gossip, and people are not very interested in him.

It is not surprising that these two people are together. It is not uncommon for rich daughters to marry down. Moreover, if we don’t consider Lin Zhiming’s history of rising to power, his conditions are also acceptable.

She is a little older, but she is beautiful and doesn’t look old. Wen Jiaqi is also 32 years old. The age difference between the two is not even that of an old man and a young wife.

Although he has not ended his last marriage, his wife has been missing for almost seven years. Next year, she can apply for a declaration of death, which is no different from a widow, not to mention that Wen Jiaqi has been divorced once.

He also has a son, but this problem is not a problem. Rich people don't need to take care of their children themselves. If Wen Jiaqi is capable, there is no need to worry that Lin Zhiming will give his property to his eldest son in the future.

Unless Wen Jiaqi wants to find someone for her first marriage, she will always face this problem if she wants to remarry.

In general, the only thing worth criticizing about these two people getting together is that Lin Zhiming is dating in a high-profile manner before Jin Shiting's death certificate is issued.

But think about the richest man and the shipping tycoon. These men have second and third wives while their first wife is still alive. It seems that it is nothing for Lin Zhiming to find another wife six years after his wife disappeared?

After all, Wen Yue is still conservative.

If she had directly emphasized the fact that Wen Rongsheng relied on women to get to the top like Wen Jiaqi did, and changed the title to "Who is more skilled in the confrontation between the two most powerful sons-in-law of the generation?", the sales and discussion of this issue of the newspaper would have exploded.

However, Wen Yue couldn't write like this.

People are always like this. The more they lack something, the more they care about it. Wen Rongsheng drove Wen Jiaqi out of the house. Was it really because she was disobedient and insisted on dating Lin Zhiming?

Rather than saying this is the reason, it is better to say that Wen Jiaqi's words hurt his self-esteem.

Although Wen Rongsheng's past is no secret, and there have always been enemies in the business world who slander him for relying on women to get to the top, what others say is different from what his own people say, and what is said behind his back is also different from what is said to his face.

Wen Rongsheng may not care about the rumors, but he will definitely care about his children mentioning these things.

And Wen Yue may not care whether Wen Rongsheng is upset, but she must care about his inner thoughts. After all, his will may be changed at any time because of changes in his inner thoughts. Wen

Yue will mock Wen Rongsheng, look for various opportunities to ask him for money, and occasionally challenge his authority, but at the same time she will grasp the degree of it, ensuring that Wen Rongsheng is uncomfortable but not to the point of turning against him.

And this also gave the second house the illusion that Wen Rongsheng favored Wen Yue.

On the other hand, if Wen Rong had to strike a balance, other newspapers in Hong Kong would not have to worry so much.

Ordinary citizens in Hong Kong were not interested in the fact that Wen Jiaqi and Lin Zhiming were dating, but journalists felt that there were many things to report. So after seeing the report, various newspaper companies arranged for reporters to go to the two's residences and wait for them.

On the day of waiting, the two did not meet, but Lin Zhiming was obviously determined to get Wen Jiaqi. When he was interviewed by reporters in the evening, he directly admitted that he was pursuing Wen Jiaqi.

As for other commonplace questions such as whether Jin Shiting was mentally ill and whether he killed her, he did not respond to any of them.

But this was enough to excite the reporters.

The next morning, the decent newspapers were still following the routine, introducing how the two met and what progress they had made so far.

The unscrupulous ones had already followed the headline idea of ​​the "Dongjiang Entertainment News" and began to use "A Lost Son-in-Law Meets a Lost Son-in-Law" as the headline, comparing the two generations of lost sons-in-law, who was more ruthless?

After the comparison, it was concluded that Lin Zhiming was still more ruthless.

Although Wen Rongsheng was a scumbag, he brought concubines home one after another after he became rich, which led to Peng Lifen's early death and Wen Kai's disappearance, but at least he did not send his wife to a mental hospital (also known as a nursing home) like Lin Zhiming did.

Wen Rongsheng was naturally furious when he saw the news. He had a big tantrum at home and threatened to remove Wen Jiaqi from his will if she didn't break up with Lin Zhiming.

Chen Baoqin also wanted Wen Jiaqi to break up with Lin Zhiming, but she was upset when she heard Wen Rongsheng say that. She said that if it weren't for Wen Yue's newspaper breaking the news, the incident wouldn't have happened. Why should she just blame her daughter?

So Wen Rongsheng called Wen Yue again and scolded her for having no sense of family honor.

"What is family honor? Can it be exchanged for money?" Wen Yue asked very confidently, and then said, "Besides, isn't the root of this matter the fact that Wen Jiaqi and Lin Zhiming are dating? Even if the newspaper under my name didn't break the news, as long as they keep doing it, this matter will always be exposed. Instead of scolding me here, you might as well think about how to break them up, or spend some money to suppress the news."

Of course, Wen Rongsheng couldn't spend money to suppress the news. It's not that he was reluctant to spend money, but the topic of the bribed son-in-law had already been discussed. It would make him feel particularly guilty to spend money to suppress the news.

Wen Rongsheng did feel guilty, but he didn't want others to see that he felt guilty, so he could only grit his teeth and pretend to be nonchalant to show that he didn't care about these messy rumors at all.

He didn't publicly oppose Wen Jiaqi and Lin Zhiming's dating, because jumping out at this time would only make the news more and more heated, so it's better to deal with it coldly.

But he asked Chen Baoqin to bring a message to Wen Jiaqi, threatening her that he would be expelled from the group if she didn't break up.

Because Wen Rongsheng said it was just a threat, it didn't mean he would really do it. The main purpose was to persuade Wen Jiaqi to come back. So after considering it, Chen Baoqin didn't make a fuss with Wen Rongsheng, but brought the message to Wen Jiaqi and persuaded her to break up with him.

Wen Jiaqi was very angry after hearing this, but she was indeed threatened.

Although Lin Zhiming is the chairman of Huafa Securities, he currently only owns 5% of the shares. Even if Jin Shiting is declared dead next year, his shares will only add up to more than 30%, and his net worth is less than 1 billion. Moreover,

there is no concept of joint property in Hong Kong. Unless Lin Zhiming transfers his shares to her, no matter how much money he has, it has nothing to do with her, but this is obviously impossible.

So within two days of the relationship being exposed, Wen Jiaqi decided to break up with Lin Zhiming.

But before that, she had to find Lin Zhiming to get the money she invested in the stock market back.

...

Wen Yue knew that Chen Baoqin had gone to find Wen Jiaqi, but she didn't have much time to take care of the follow-up.

She was not busy with work. After all, she had been in Lirong Department Store for more than half a year, and her work was gradually getting easier, so she had a lot of free time after the contract renewal.

If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have had the time to think about investment, and she also took time out every day to read books and learn how to trade stocks, all of which require energy.

It is precisely because she found something to do that Wen Yue has not had so much free time recently, but she was busy mainly because when she was reading the newspaper that day, she accidentally noticed that the nursing home that accepted Jin Shiting was related to the nursing home that would accept Zhou Jinlong in the future as mentioned in the original book.

In fact, when she was having dinner at Wen's house that day, when she heard Wen Rongsheng talking about Lin Zhiming sending his wife to a mental hospital, Wen Yue thought of Zhou Jinlong.

But what happened that night was too dramatic, and Wen Yue was quickly attracted by the quarrel between father and daughter and forgot about it.

Until the news of Wen Jiaqi and Lin Zhiming's dating was exposed, the major newspapers not only interviewed the two and tracked the latest developments, but also spent time sorting out the reports from previous years, reporting extensively on Wen Jiaqi's ex-husband Lin Yongkang being imprisoned and Lin Zhiming's wife Jin Shiting being sent to a nursing home.

The report said that Jin Shiting had been living in the Fu Yan Nursing Home in Shek O before she disappeared, and although the fire six years ago was not serious, it only affected the two empty wards next to Jin Shiting. But her disappearance caused quite a stir, so Fu Yan Nursing Home was closed not long after the fire.

But four years ago, Jiang Wenpeng, the founder of Fu'en Nursing Home, founded another nursing home called Sheng'en, and in the original novel, Zhou Jinlong was sent to a mental hospital called Sheng'en by Fu Wenfang.

Because the system doesn't know whether Zhou Jinlong is really mentally ill in the original novel, and it's quite comfortable for a scumbag like him to spend the rest of his life in a mental hospital.

So when eating this melon, Wen Yue didn't delve into whether this mental hospital is regular or not, until yesterday when she found out that Jin Shiting and Zhou Jinlong might have entered the same nursing home (mental hospital), she started to investigate further.

Although theoretically, it is not unusual for these two people to enter the same nursing home, after all, this nursing home is open to the rich. Lin Zhiming and Fu Wenfang are both rich. Regardless of whether their relationship is good or not, they will choose a higher-end nursing home for the sake of reputation.

But what if?

Zhou Jinlong deserves this fate, but what did Jin Shiting do wrong?

Moreover, men are usually more cruel than women. Men can beat their wives for no reason, while women usually fight back when they are forced to no other choice.

Just like Fu Wenfang, she also endured for many years before she started to fight back.

If there is a problem with this nursing home, the number of persecuted women is definitely more than that of men, so Wen Yue wants to meet Jiang Wenpeng or Lin Zhiming.

It would be best if there is no problem with the hospital after the meeting, which would save a lot of trouble. Although Jin Shiting is a bit miserable, she is indeed crazy and missing. Wen Yue can't do anything even if she sympathizes with her.

But if there is a problem with the hospital, she must expose it to prevent more people from being persecuted.
