Cheng Hao originally thought that he needed to do some psychological preparation before he could get close to Lin Yuxun, but in fact, it was not necessary.
As the emotion came to him, he kissed Lin Yuxun naturally, and it felt pretty good.
But after a while, the two separated like thieves - they heard Danny's voice!
Speaking of which, this rented house is mainly made of wood and the sound insulation is not very good. With Danny here, they really have to be more careful when they are intimate in the future, so as not to teach the child bad habits.
Lin Yuxun's face was reddening excessively... Cheng Hao let him go, opened the door and walked out of their room, just in time to meet Danny who was trying to open the door and come in.
Cheng Hao smiled and asked, "Danny, are you here to see me or Yu Xun?"
Danny looked at Cheng Hao: "Brother, I have something for you!"
"What do you want to give me?" Cheng Hao asked.
Danny took out ten dollars and gave it to Cheng Hao: "Here."
Cheng Hao looked at Danny in confusion. What was this? Lin Yuxun's pocket money for Danny?
Actually, because of Danny's special situation, he had never given Danny pocket money before...
Cheng Hao was just beginning to feel like he'd neglected his duties when Lin Yuxun came out and saw the ten dollars. He asked, "Danny, where did you get this money?"
"Didn't you give it to me?" Cheng Hao asked.
"I haven't given him any money." Lin Yuxun said. Danny went to a private school, and the school provided for his meals and other things. He would pick him up after school and buy him anything he wanted... He was worried about letting Danny go out to buy things by himself, so he had never given Danny any money.
"Danny, where did you get this money?" Cheng Hao asked. Could Danny have picked it up?
"This is the royalties I earned from painting!" Danny's face was full of excitement, but after the excitement, he felt a little disappointed: "It's a little little, but I will work hard. Arthur said that once my paintings are good, I can sell a painting for a lot of money."
"Danny, you can actually get royalties for your paintings? You're really awesome!" Cheng Hao picked up Danny and kissed him on the forehead.
Lin Yuxun couldn't help but said: "Cheng, Danny has grown..."
After he said that, he realized that what he said sounded a bit sour, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Cheng Hao laughed out loud: "Yes, Danny, you are a big boy now. Brother can't kiss you casually from now on."
Danny's eyes widened when he heard this: "I'm still young, really!" He liked Cheng Hao kissing him! He was still young!
Cheng Hao laughed even louder, and Lin Yuxun's face turned even redder.
After laughing, Cheng Hao kept this matter in mind.
Danny is not a child anymore, so he should be more careful in the future. Although people here often kiss cheeks and foreheads, his sexual orientation has changed now, so it is not appropriate for him to kiss men other than Lin Yuxun.
Even if it's just the forehead.
Danny didn't know what Cheng Hao was thinking. He happily asked his teacher to submit his drawing, and then told Cheng Hao and Lin Yuxun that he had received the royalties and sample issues.
He had originally wanted to tell Cheng Hao about this as soon as he came back, but Lin Yuxun had gone to look for Cheng Hao and sent him to Arabella, without even taking his schoolbag with him... He had no money or receipt, so he hadn't told anyone about it, and later simply forgot about it. He only remembered it today when he returned home.
"Danny is awesome!" Cheng Hao praised Danny and returned the money to him: "Take this money and buy whatever you want."
"I want to give it to you," Danny said.
"Why give it to me?" Cheng Hao asked in confusion.
"I want to make money to support you!" Danny said, "so you don't have to work!"
Lin Yuxun: “…”
Lin Yuxun took the banknote from Cheng Hao and stuffed it into Danny's hand: "Danny, Cheng Hao doesn't need you to support him." Even if he wants to support Cheng Hao, he should still be the one to do it!
"Am I earning too little?" Danny asked dejectedly.
"No." Cheng Hao smiled and patted Danny's head. "You don't need to support me because you're still too young... Don't worry, we have money and we're not short of it. We can live a good life! Well... It's time for you to understand money. Come, let's talk about money."
At Danny's age, he should understand money and learn how to use it. They neglected it before, but now they can make up for it.
Also, tell Danny that they are not short of money.
Cheng Hao didn't want Danny to feel inferior because his family was poor.
Cheng Hao started chatting with Danny and told him the prices of various daily necessities at home.
Actually, their biggest expense now is Danny's education... But they can still afford it, so they let Danny continue to study in private school and learn to speak and read.
If we can't afford it in the future, we can just let Danny go to public school.
Although the public schools in the poor communities here are very poor, the public schools in ordinary communities are actually quite good, with guarantees in all aspects, so there is basically no problem for Danny to go there.
Lin Yuxun always said that he made a lot of money, but Cheng Hao didn't take it seriously.
Not only is starting a business very hard, but you won't make any money at the beginning. I'm afraid that the money Lin Yuxun earned was probably spent on buying computers and other things.
Moreover, Lin Yuxun is still young, and so are the other people in his company. It is really difficult for a group of college students like them to succeed in starting a business.
In his previous life, Cheng Hao lived in a relatively simple environment. Everyone was an athlete and no one started a business. However, when he surfed the Internet, he often saw stories of failed businesses.
He did not have high hopes for Lin Yuxun's entrepreneurship, but he felt that since Lin Yuxun had such an idea, there was nothing wrong with him doing it.
Lin Yuxun is still in college now. It doesn’t matter if his business fails. He can just work hard after graduation.
Thinking of this, Cheng Hao simply talked to Danny about loans and other things, and then told Lin Yuxun not to take out loans when starting a company.
"I didn't take out a loan." Lin Yuxun said, "Someone invested in us."
Lin Yuxun had mentioned this matter before, and Cheng Hao felt relieved when he heard it.
In this way, it is others who lose money. Of course, after making money, it mainly goes to others.
Even if Lin Yuxun has money, it's probably not much.
He still needs to make money, at least to pay the mortgage after buying a house.
Cheng Hao and Danny Lin Yuxun were discussing family finances when their phone rang.
Lin Yuxun stood up and answered the phone, then looked at Cheng Hao: "Cheng Hao, George is looking for you."
The person who called was Old George. He called Cheng Hao because of Eustace's invitation to compete with Claude.
"Eustace is a very sinister person. He might do something to this competition..." Old George said hesitantly.
Cheng Hao said: "Then don't agree to him."
OC Company's methods are despicable, and Cheng Hao thinks it is better not to agree.
"That's right... then I won't agree to it." Old George said without hesitation.
Both Cheng Hao and Old George felt that they could not fall into the trap when they knew that the other party had bad intentions, and finally rejected Eustace's invitation.
As a result, just as they refused, Eustace published a challenge in the magazine, openly challenging Claude.
Famous professional boxers often receive many challenges. Some of them will agree, but some will not.
Especially when they realize that by saying yes they will become a stepping stone for others.
At such times, some people would publish challenge letters in magazines to force famous boxers to accept the challenge.
The effect of doing this is quite good. In order to save face, many well-known boxers have to accept the challenge.
However, generally, those who publish challenge letters in magazines are those boxers who are not well-known and want to become famous by challenging a famous boxer. But now... it is a veteran boxing champion challenging a new boxing champion!
Eustace is in his early thirties. He has won many boxing championship belts, has many fans, and is well-known in the boxing world. Although he has been on the decline in recent years, there are still many people who like and admire him.
Such a person actually challenged Claude?
After this incident came out, it immediately became a big deal. Boxing fans and boxers rushed to tell each other: "Did you hear? Eustace challenged Claude!"
"I heard about it. It's incredible... Eustace is quite old, and Claude is very powerful..."
"Eustace may be quite old, but he's very experienced. Claude is just an uneducated guy who won the boxing championship by luck... I believe Eustace can win!"
"I think Eustace can win, too."
"Eustace can win? Are you kidding me! Eustace is not young anymore! He might not be able to beat August and Carol, let alone Claude."
"I also think Eustace will lose... Why did he challenge Claude?"
…
No matter what people talked about, the matter undoubtedly became a big deal, and soon after, the fact that Old George had been Eustace's agent was also dug up.
Many insiders knew that Eustace was dishonest in that incident, and they even sympathized with old George, but ordinary boxing fans did not know this.
All they knew was that Old George had been to jail for things like blackmailing his boxer.
"I heard that Claude's agent was once Eustace's agent. He even signed a very harsh contract with Eustace, forcing Eustace to give him money!"
"I still have some recollection of this incident. He was later imprisoned."
"I didn't expect him to show up again. He even became Claude's agent. It's incredible."
"So they have a grudge. No wonder Eustace wants to challenge Claude."
…
After people learned about this, they paid more attention to the affairs of Eustace and Claude. Many people even began to write letters and make phone calls to the magazine and ZYF Company, insulting old George and asking ZYF Company to fire him.
Fortunately, there is no Internet now. If there were, old George might have been trapped in cyberbullying.
But even without cyber violence, some seemingly plausible content published in some small newspapers caused a lot of trouble for old George.
It is not known whether these tabloids were bought off by OC or were just trying to attract attention, but they not only dug up things that happened many years ago and published them in the newspapers, but also said that Claude's interviews were often conducted by Old George, and that Claude was very likely controlled by Old George.
In the newspaper that Cheng Hao was holding, someone said with certainty that Claude, as a man born in the slums and unable to read, must know nothing, so he became Old George's money-making machine... It even mentioned that Eustace challenged Claude, perhaps in order to save Claude.
Cheng Hao's face turned black.
Cheng Hao admitted that Old George was not a perfect person and was even too irritable at times, but he had absolutely nothing to say about Claude.
Although old George didn't want to keep Claude at first, he never treated Claude badly after Claude really stayed. Claude lived and ate in his house, and he spent a lot of time and effort to educate Claude.
Moreover, Claude had just won the boxing championship and had not actually made much money. However, old George had spent at least tens of thousands of dollars on him!
He and Claude earned less money for old George, but old George spent more money on them.
Cheng Hao was very angry when he saw such reports, but ordinary boxing fans believed them.
"God, that agent named George is so abominable!"
"We must find a way to prevent him from oppressing Claude!"
"We should find a way to rescue Claude!"
…
Those people were filled with righteous indignation, and some even called the police, saying that Old George had imprisoned Claude.
After receiving such a report, the police came to the door. Although it was finally confirmed that it was a false accusation, it still made old George very anxious.
Old George, who was already very angry, became even angrier: "Damn Eustace, damn him!"
Old George trained Cheng Hao and Claude so carefully, and he did have the intention of letting Cheng Hao and Claude defeat Eustace and seek revenge on Eustace, but he never thought of plotting or scheming, and he didn't even have time to do it.
As a result, Eustace and OC Company targeted them again and again.
In fact, not to mention Old George, even Cheng Hao hates Eustace and OC Company.
The injury on Cheng Hao's shoulder has just healed!
He had originally wanted to become a boxing champion, but OC Company actually used such despicable means on him...
Cheng Hao looked at Old George and said, "George, let's accept the challenge, and then invite more media outlets to clarify the matter on the spot!"
"Do they have any conspiracy?" Old George was a little worried.
"They are plotting something now. If we don't respond, who knows what they will say next!" Cheng Hao said.
Old George's eyes flashed with a ferocious expression when he heard this: "Then agree! I'm going to let Claude break his ribs!"
"It's not enough to just break his ribs, we have to knock out his teeth too!" Cheng Hao laughed.
After Cheng Hao and Old George made the decision, they discussed the matter. At the same time, Mr. Carter, the boss of ZYF Company, also called. He came to persuade Old George to let Claude accept the challenge.
After learning that Old George was willing to let Claude fight, he was very happy: "Great! Old George, that's how it should be! I believe Claude will definitely win! Don't worry, I will arrange for the media to clarify the matter, and I will also send people to protect Claude's safety."
Although ZYF Company is not as good as OC Company, it also has many media outlets that it knows, and they have also helped Old George clarify the matter these days.
But this is not easy, after all, old George was really imprisoned.
Now, ZYF Company has agreed on a solution, which is to hope that Claude can defeat Eustace.
In boxing, the winner takes all. As long as Claude defeats Eustace, they can hold a press conference and clarify the matter of old George!
By then, maybe we can give OC company a severe blow.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Claude can win.
ZYF Company attaches great importance to Claude. After all, if something happens to Claude now, their company will also be implicated.
So, after Old George accepted Eustace's invitation to fight, Mr. Carter immediately arranged some bodyguards to protect Claude.
They want to ensure that Claude does not suffer any harm before the game.
Mr. Carter hired a total of ten bodyguards, which cost a lot of money. It can be said that Claude’s life safety is no longer a concern.
But Claude's training needs to keep up.
Cheng Hao and Lin Yu had only been reunited with Danny for a few days when the incident with Old George came to light. He had no choice but to move in with Old George and discuss with him how to resolve the matter. Now he had to take charge of Claude's training...
Cheng Hao and Lin Yuxun can only have a long-distance relationship again. They don’t even have time to look at houses.
After confirming their relationship with Cheng Hao, they had never been together properly... Lin Yuxun severely blamed OC Company, thinking that Cheng Hao's injury was also related to them...
He made another note.
Unfortunately, he is still too weak and can't deal with OC Company... Wait, he can't deal with it, but others can!
