Chapter 94 Jin Shiting's Past

"Why are you here?" The three looked at each other, and Wen Jiaqi spoke first.

Lin Zhiming looked down at his girlfriend in a gentle voice, and asked with a smile: "Who is this?"

"My second sister." Wen Jiaqi said.

"Hello, Miss Wen." Lin Zhiming smiled and greeted Wen Yue, and also asked, "Why are you here today?"

"To talk to the broker about stocks." After Wen Yue answered, her eyes turned around the two people's faces, and asked knowingly, "Why are you here?"

Wen Jiaqi straightened her chest and raised her head: "I also came to talk to the broker about stocks."

Wen Yue nodded, and then said that she had something to do, and walked around Wen Jiaqi and prepared to leave. But after a few steps, Wen Jiaqi caught up and said, "Wait."

"Anything else?" Wen Yue stopped and turned around to ask.

Wen Jiaqi looked a little embarrassed, hesitating about how to start, until Wen Yue impatiently said she was leaving, she made up her mind and said, "Don't tell Daddy about what happened to me here today."

Wen Yue hadn't planned to tell Wen Rongsheng. She and Wen Jiaqi were not born from the same mother, and their sisterhood was more plastic than plastic. She didn't care what kind of man Wen Jiaqi met, or whether she would be deceived.

If it weren't for the possibility of gossip about Lin Zhiming, oh, now it has been confirmed that there is gossip, she wouldn't have made this trip today.

And if she let the newspaper under her name report the relationship between the two, she could earn some sales and gossip value, but telling Wen Rongsheng about it would be useless.

What? You said that Wen Rongsheng would remove her from his will if he knew that she hadn't broken up with Lin Zhiming?

Let's not talk about whether Wen Rongsheng can be so cruel, let's say that after Wen Jiaqi was removed from the family, will she be the one who will benefit?

Wen Yue thinks not necessarily.

If Wen Rongsheng wants her to be the heir, the extra property after Wen Jiaqi was removed from the family will most likely be distributed to other children.

And if Wen Rongsheng does not intend to let her inherit the Wen family, this extra share and money will mean nothing to her, and her joy will not be one tenth of her amnesia.

In fact, Wen Yue thinks that even if Wen Rongsheng can really be so cruel, Chen Baoqin will not watch this property being distributed to people from other families. She will definitely make trouble with Wen Rongsheng, and drag Wen Jiadong along with him.

Although Chen Baoqin is not favored, she has been with Wen Rongsheng for so many years after all, and he can't completely ignore her thoughts.

Moreover, although Wen Jiadong lost his fertility due to his own excessive play, the main reason was that Xu Meifeng drugged him. Wen Rongsheng may be very disappointed with his son, but he must feel guilty in his heart.

The two of them are making trouble together, and the possibility of this part of the property being divided among others is really small.

Instead of staring at these three melons and two dates that are unlikely to be hers, she might as well earn more melon value.

But she just broke the news that the two were dating a few days ago, and the melon value would not be added if she broke the news again, so she didn't plan to disclose today's events to the outside world before she was sure that other melons on Lin Zhiming could earn her a lot of melon value.

But whether Wen Yue wanted to or not was one thing, and whether Wen Jiaqi would let her was another.

Although she was begging, Wen Jiaqi's tone sounded like an order. Wen Yue sneered and asked, "Why should I listen to you?" Wen

Jiaqi felt a little regretful after she finished speaking. Although she was not very smart, they had dealt with each other many times in the past year, and she basically understood Wen Yue's personality and knew that she was a bit stubborn.

But she couldn't bring herself to apologize. When she was struggling, she glanced at the instructions for the floors of various companies on the wall next to her. Her eyes lit up and she said, "How about this, as long as you don't tell Dad about this, I will let Zhiming help you trade stocks. He is very good at trading stocks, and it is not a problem for him to double your principal within a month."

If there was no system, Wen Yue might really be tempted. Who doesn't want free money?

But the fact is that she has a system. After meeting Lin Zhiming, she can let the system check what stocks he bought and then consider whether to follow suit.

So, Wen Yue acted as if she regarded money as dirt and said, "I'm not short of money, and I don't need it."

Wen Jiaqi, who had always been short of money, had a distorted expression when she heard this, and asked through gritted teeth, "What exactly do you want?"

"What can I want?" Wen Yue finally said mercifully, "I have no interest in your behavior of just crawling out of one pit and diving into another, and I don't plan to complain to anyone, but..."

She looked up at Lin Zhiming, "You don't want Daddy to know that you are still in contact, and you go in and out together so high-profile. Wen Jiaqi, are you really so stupid that you can't realize that this is an attempt to cover up the truth?"

After that, Wen Yue ignored Wen Jiaqi and turned away with her bodyguard.

Looking at Wen Yue's back, Wen Jiaqi stomped her feet in anger. If she hadn't considered that this was a public occasion, she would have screamed "Ah ah".

Seeing her anger, Lin Zhiming walked over and asked, "Gigi, what's wrong with you? Is it because your sister refuses to hide the truth for us in front of your dad?"

"I don't know either." Wen Jiaqi said uncertainly, "She has a weird temper and no one can understand it."

Turning around and walking to the elevator again, looking at the two figures reflected in the elevator door, Wen Jiaqi unconsciously thought of Wen Yue's words. After the elevator door opened, she said, "How about... you go in first? I'll take the next elevator."

Lin Zhiming was puzzled and looked at Wen Jiaqi in confusion: "Gigi?"

Wen Jiaqi hesitated and said, "She said it's too high for us to walk together. "It's easy to be noticed if it's adjusted."

Lin Zhiming's expression froze slightly, but he recovered quickly and said with a smile: "I didn't consider this problem. So, you go up first. I'll call the staff to pick you up at the elevator hall. I'll take the next elevator."

Then he put his hand on Wen Jiaqi's back, pushed her slowly into the elevator, pointed his finger upwards, and said with a smile: "See you later."

The elevator door closed, and the smile on Lin Zhiming's face faded.

He took out his mobile phone and was about to make a call when the elevator next door opened and a tall man walked out first.

The moment they saw each other clearly, both men raised their eyebrows unconsciously. Finally, Lin Zhiming greeted first: "Mr. Xie, long time no see."

Mr. Xie, or Mr. Xie, ignored him and walked past him without even looking at him. Because they were too close, he unconsciously took a step back.

When Lin Zhiming stood firm, Mr. Xie and his men had already walked outside.

Looking at the figure of the leader standing in the sun, Lin Zhiming tightly held the ringing mobile phone and pressed the call button and said: "Hello?"

"I got out of the elevator, why don't I see anyone?" Wen Jiaqi's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

"Something happened here, and I didn't have time to make a phone call. I'll come up now. Wait for me for a few seconds." As he spoke, Lin Zhiming walked into the elevator and pressed the floor button.

The elevator door closed again.

...

When Lin Zhiming went upstairs, Wen Yue had already gotten in the car and told the driver to go to Lirong Department Store. She asked the system in her mind: [What did you just say? ]

[Xie Yaohua came to Fuen Nursing Home after the fire. ]

Mr. Xie's full name is Xie Yaohua. Wen Yue didn't know how old he was, but his birth year was definitely earlier than Yaohua Capital, which was established less than 30 years ago.

Father Xie named the company after his son, which shows how much he values ​​this son.

Wen Yue quickly pulled back her divergent thoughts and asked: [Did he take Jin Shiting away? ]

[Yes. 】

【Is Jin Shiting still alive? 】 Wen Yue asked again as soon as she finished speaking, 【What is the relationship between Xie Yaohua and Jin Shiting? 】

【She is still alive. They dated and it was each other's first love. 】

Jin Shiting was sent to Fuen Nursing Home by Lin Zhiming on the grounds that she was mentally ill in the seventh year of her marriage. In the ninth year, a fire broke out in the ward where she lived.

According to outside reports, she dated Lin Zhiming for two or three years before marriage under the matchmaking of Jin's father.

In other words, the two had broken up for eleven or twelve years when the fire broke out.

After such a long time, Xie Yaohua was still able to go to the nursing home to see Jin Shiting. Obviously, Jin Shiting was more than just his first love.

But the question is again, if he couldn't forget Jin Shiting after eleven or twelve years, why did they break up in the first place? Why

didn't he come to see her when she was just sent to the nursing home, but two years later? Of course, it is also possible that he had already gone to the nursing home to look for her, but because he was not a family member, he could not see her?

It is not right to think so. Although they only met once, Wen Yue felt that Xie Yaohua was not an incompetent person. If he wanted to save Jin Shiting, he would definitely find a way.

So there must be a story here.

Wen Yue made it clear, and the system no longer squeezed out the toothpaste-like narration for the sake of keeping the suspense, and said: [Jin Shiting and Xie Yaohua are not only first love lovers, but also childhood sweethearts. 】

Father Xie and Father Jin were relatively early securities practitioners in Hong Kong. At that time, the Far East Exchange had not yet been established, the stock market was controlled by the British, and Chinese-funded enterprises could not go public for financing.

For ordinary Chinese, it was already very unusual for them to become exchange staff, but in front of those British guys, they seemed inferior.

So the two of them built a deep friendship during the years they worked together. After the establishment of the first Chinese securities exchange, the Far East Exchange, the two of them also wanted to start a business.

In the late 1960s, Father Xie and Father Jin jointly established Huafa Securities.

When the two were colleagues, the relationship between the two companies was very close, and they often went out to play or have meals together, so Xie Yaohua and Jin Shiting knew each other at a very young age.

Although Xie Yaohua and Jin Shiting are of different genders and have a two-year age difference, the former often takes the latter to play together, and they even went to the same school for junior high and high school.

Although they called each other "brother" and "sister" when they were young, they were not biological siblings after all, and they both looked good, so it was natural for them to have an ambiguous relationship when they reached puberty.

Because it was a British colony, Hong Kong was deeply influenced by Western culture. The atmosphere in the 1960s was already very open, and enlightened parents would not interfere too much with their children's early love.

In addition, Xie's father and Jin's father were partners, so the parents of both sides were optimistic about the little ambiguity between the two.

But no matter how deep the brotherhood is, it cannot withstand the conflict of interests, not to mention that Xie's father and Jin's father are not biological brothers.

When the two of them first became partners, it was fine. They were short of money but had a united mind. They only wanted to make the company bigger and stronger. They discussed many things. With their concerted efforts, Huafa Securities' business became more and more prosperous, and conflicts gradually emerged.

It was not entirely due to the unequal distribution of benefits. Although they each felt that they had a greater impact on the development of the company, they were friends for many years after all, and they would not quarrel over money so quickly.

The deeper conflict was caused by the personalities of the two people. Xie's father was impulsive but prone to recklessness, while Jin's father was more conservative but also more stable.

When the company was small, it was easy to deal with, and many problems could be covered up. But when the company developed to a certain extent, the question of whether to rush forward with all your strength or expand slowly and steadily was finally put on the table and could no longer be avoided.

The two of them held their own opinions, and neither of them was willing to compromise.

Unfortunately, there were only two bosses in the company, and there was no third person to mediate. So during that period, Huafa Securities was like a headless fly, rushing forward one moment and then slamming on the brakes the next.

For a while, not only did the company's employees suffer, but the disadvantages of inconsistent decision-making also gradually emerged. They fell flat on their faces and lost a sum of money that was not enough to break their bones, but enough to make them feel painful.

If the two had split up at this time, perhaps their friendship could have continued, but neither of them was willing to give in, so the two were tied together and continued to move forward with stumbling.

Then six months later, Huafa Securities once again lost a sum of money due to a wrong decision, and this loss was not only painful, but also enough to make them bankrupt.

Six months later, the conflict between Xie and Jin had become very deep. After this mistake, they could no longer maintain superficial peace, fought in the company, and then completely parted ways.

After all, they were both bankrupt, and they had no choice but to go their separate ways.

Of course, even if a ship is broken, there are still three thousand nails. The company that the two of them opened together was glorious after all. Even if it went bankrupt, it still had some foundation. The two counted the last bit of assets of the company. In the end, Father Jin took the company signboard and Father Xie took the office equipment, and then they went their separate ways.

Although Xie and Jin failed in their partnership, it did not mean that they were incompetent. After parting ways, both of them developed well.

Father Jin was conservative but very stable. Although Huafa Securities did not enter the forefront of the industry under his management, it has always developed steadily. He has never gone bankrupt, and his assets have been steadily increasing.

Mr. Xie still loved to struggle. He was on the verge of bankruptcy several times in those years, but he got up several times. Finally, under his management, Yaohua rushed into the top ten in the industry.

In the past two decades, the Hong Kong stock market has undergone several major changes. The stock exchange has changed from a monopoly to a four-way market. In the early 1980s, it merged to form the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. In the mid-1980s, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange opened a new office building.

No matter how the outside world changes, Huafa and Yaohua have never changed.

They have always worked in the same building. The founders of the two companies have always tacitly agreed not to meet each other, and they will not hesitate to snatch each other's business when they have the opportunity.

Until the end of their lives, their friendship has never been repaired.

As their friendship changed, the two families, who were once as close as one family, gradually drifted apart. Their attitude towards Jin Shiting and Xie Yaohua's relationship also gradually changed from support to opposition, and they demanded that the two break up.

Xie Yaohua and Jin Shiting certainly didn't want to do that. They were not like Wen Jiaqi, who was rebellious and wanted to be with Lin Zhiming the more her parents opposed her. Instead, they were in the period of passionate love at the time and loved

each other so much that they couldn't bear to part. In order to separate the two, Xie and Jin both took action. One sent their son to the United States to continue his studies, and the other sent their daughter to the UK to attend university. They felt that if they were separated for a long time, their feelings would definitely fade away.

But the plan of the two fathers did not succeed. Even when Jin Shiting graduated from university and returned to Hong Kong, the two did not break up. Seeing this, both Xie's father and Jin's father were anxious.

At that time, the gap between the two families had already widened.

Because of his conservative personality, Jin's father's assets were steadily increasing, but it seemed a bit tepid to outsiders.

Although Xie's father was not stable enough, under his leadership, Yaohua Securities' assets were like a roller coaster in the early days of its establishment. Sometimes he made a lot of money and his assets doubled, and sometimes he suffered a big loss and was on the verge of bankruptcy. But after he stabilized, his wealth continued to rise. When Xie Yaohua returned to China, he had already been on the rich list.

Father Xie is an ambitious man. He is not satisfied with the achievements at that time. He hopes to get the Xie family to the next level through marriage and get rid of the reputation of nouveau riche.

Therefore, let alone his bad relationship with Father Jin, even if they did not have a quarrel, he would not necessarily agree to let Xie Yaohua marry Jin Shiting when the gap between the two families is getting bigger and bigger. Moreover, there is no if in the world. The former friends have become enemies who will never see each other again.

Father Jin does not want the two to be together, not only because he has a bad relationship with Father Xie, but also because he wants his daughter to be bribed.

Father Jin's thoughts are slightly more open-minded than Wen Rongsheng, but they are very limited. He still wants a son, but he has been trying for so many years but has not given birth to one, so he has to give up and turn to raising a daughter.

When Jin Shiting was young, Jin's father did not think much about it and was happy to see her get together with his friend's son. But as his body aged day by day and his son was nowhere to be seen, his thoughts gradually changed.

Although he had no son, he still wanted a descendant with his surname, so he thought of letting his daughter marry.

When Jin Shiting graduated from university, the Xie family's conditions were better than the Jin family, and Xie Yaohua was the only son in the family, so it was definitely impossible to let him marry.

Not only Xie Yaohua, but also the rich second generation with some money in the family don't have to count on it. The richer the family, the more face they want. The parents of the rich second generation will never let their son marry.

So, Jin's father set his sights on the company's employees.

In this way, Lin Zhiming, who had a poor family background and low education, but was very outstanding in his own conditions, caught the eye of Jin's father.

For Lin Zhiming, as long as he could marry Jin Shiting, he could save ten years of struggle, so he was willing in his heart, even if the condition was that the child would have the surname Jin.

After getting Lin Zhiming, the only problem facing Jin's father was how to separate his daughter and the boy from the Xie family.

Although they had been fighting each other for several years, Xie and Jin were very united and had a tacit understanding in the matter of separating their children.

In the end, they successfully created a misunderstanding between the two and caused them to break up.

After the breakup, Jin Shiting started dating Lin Zhiming with the help of Jin's father, and Xie Yaohua also fell in love with a rich girl introduced by Xie's father.

Less than a year later, Jin's father's health deteriorated rapidly.

In order to reassure his father, Jin Shiting and Lin Zhiming obtained a marriage certificate before he passed away.

On the eve of their wedding, Xie Yaohua, who received the news, finally came to his senses and went to Jin Shiting to talk it out, wanting to reconcile with her. But Jin Shiting took into account her father lying on the hospital bed and did not agree.

After Jin Shiting and Lin Zhiming got married, Xie Yaohua went to the United States alone.

When Xie Yaohua first went to the United States, Xie's father revealed regret in his words, especially when Jin's father had just passed away. Recalling the friendship at that time, he regretted his stubbornness at that time.

But as Xie Yaohua became more successful on Wall Street, this regret gradually faded, and only revealed a little when he urged his son to get married.

But this regret was too weak, so when Jin Shiting was sent to a nursing home by Lin Zhiming, he concealed the news without hesitation.

Because he didn't want to hear the news that Jin Shiting and her husband were in harmony, Xie Yaohua deliberately blocked the news from Hong Kong after going to the United States, so Xie's father's concealment was very successful.

Until Xie's father passed away six years ago, Xie Yaohua returned to Hong Kong to attend the funeral.

After the funeral, Xie's mother urged him to get married again and let it slip, and he knew that Jin Shiting had been locked up in a nursing home.

Upon hearing the news, Xie Yaohua hurried to Fuen Nursing Home, but was refused entry because he was not a family member.

In anger, Xie Yaohua found Lin Zhiming, fought with him, and asked him to release Jin Shiting. But Lin Zhiming insisted that Jin Shiting was crazy and refused to give in.

Xie Yaohua had no choice but to think of other ways.

[Xie Yaohua sneaked into Fu En Nursing Home in the middle of the night, and just happened to catch up with the fire in the ward where Jin Shiting lived, so he rescued her...] Wen Yue frowned and asked, [Isn't this too coincidental? Are you sure Xie Yaohua came to the nursing home after the fire? ]

[Yes. ]

The system gave an affirmative answer, and then changed the topic and said, [But this is not entirely a coincidence. After fighting with Xie Yaohua, Lin Zhiming went to Fu En Nursing Home because he was angry. ]

[What did he do in Fu En Nursing Home? 】

【When Lin Zhiming met Jin Shiting, she was still dating Xie Yaohua. He also knew that she didn't like him at first, so she has been brooding over it after marriage. This is also the main reason for the breakdown of their relationship after marriage. 】

Wen Yue snorted coldly: 【Come on, it's not like he found out that Jin Shiting liked Xie Yaohua after marriage. He could tolerate it for the Jin family's property before marriage, but couldn't stand it after marriage? And did Jin Shiting and Xie Yaohua still have contact after marriage? 】

Of course not. Xie Yaohua went to the United States right after they got married. He didn't even inquire about them, let alone secretly contact Jin Shiting.

After the system answered Wen Yue, he asked again: 【Was it Lin Zhiming who had the gossip after marriage? Those gossips should not be fake, right? 】

【Yes... gossip is both true and false. 】

Wen Yue said: 【That's it. For wealth and status, he married Jin Shiting even though he knew she had someone else to love. He took advantage of Jin Shiting's pregnancy to take over the company and gain status. He felt that he was strong and still brooded over her past. Isn't this a double-edged sword? 】

【That's right. 】

Wen Yue brought the topic back and asked again: 【So why did he go to the nursing home? To show off his power and assert his sovereignty? 】

【Almost. He told Jin Shiting that Xie Yaohua was back and wanted him to let her go, but he didn't agree and said that he would never let them be together in this life. 】

[Rubbish!]

Wen Yue commented on Lin Zhiming and asked, [Did Jin Shiting set the fire herself?]

[Yes.] The system replied, [The psychiatric department of Fu En Nursing Home is separate from other departments, and the supervision is very strict. Jin Shiting guessed that Xie Yaohua would come to save her, and also guessed that Lin Zhiming would not let people find her easily, so she wanted to use the fire to cause chaos in the nursing home, tell Xie Yaohua where she was, and make it easier for him to save people.]

Therefore, the fire was not a coincidence, but it was a coincidence that Jin Shiting set the fire and Xie Yaohua went to Fu En Nursing Home on the same day.

In addition, although Wen Yue was not clear about the specific circumstances of that night and was not sure whether Jin Shiting's plan was rigorous, she was sure that she was sober when she made the plan and put it into action.

Or, Jin Shiting was not crazy at all!
