Chen Ru received another call.
This time it wasn’t friends and relatives who came to ask about the situation.
"Newspaper reporter?"
Chen Ru stretched out her voice, "Want to interview my daughter at school?"
Chen Ru's gaze fell on Wen Ying, who was eager to survive. "I still have to go to school. I won't accept any interviews!"
As she became famous, Wen Ying needed to make some choices. She had to find a balance between studying and writing. There was nothing wrong with agreeing to an interview, but she was afraid that more interviews and reports would come in and Wen Ying would be overwhelmed.
Li Mengjiao does this quite well. She is a star on the stage and a student at school. The two identities are clearly separated, and she does not bring the pursuit of fame and fortune into school.
Wen Ying was not so irrational as to know what answer her mother would like to hear, so she decisively rejected the interview invitation.
Chen Ru was indeed satisfied. She nodded slightly and politely declined the reporter's invitation.
The reason was perfect. Wen Ying wanted to live the life of an ordinary student and didn't like being overly disturbed by the media.
Before the reporter could persuade her further, Chen Ru handed the phone to Wen Dongrong, asking him to negotiate. Wen Dongrong was a master at Tai Chi conversation, quickly convincing the reporter who wanted to interview Wen Ying. Although he refused, the reporter didn't feel the Wen family was arrogant or that Wen Ying was being a big shot.
Chen Ru coughed lightly, and Wen Ying was as obedient as a quail.
"Mom, what do you want to ask? I've already explained everything about publishing the novel. Oh, and I've also basically transferred all my shares in 'Shrimp King'. That money..."
Wen Ying was racking her brains about how to tell Chen Ru.
The profit from the transfer of "Shrimp King" shares is a huge sum of money for a high school student. Although Wen Ying earned the money herself, if she doesn't tell her parents, it will be a bombshell that can explode at any time.
But after that, Wen Ying had to explain the matter of investing in the TV series.
——According to Manager Chen’s usual thinking, high school students should not do these messy things and should just study hard!
Whether to say it or not, and how to say it, Wen Ying was a little unsure about her thinking and eloquence.
Chen Ru saw all her hesitation and anxiety.
This doesn't look like Wen Ying, who has been lawless and rebellious in the past year. Is she scared by this lawsuit?
Chen Ru could not forget the sight of Wen Ying crying in the office, hugging her thighs. Her heart softened, but her tone was stern: "That's your own money, save it. I don't care how you spend it, but I suggest you wait until you're an adult before using it!"
Wu Chunqin said that teaching children how to manage their finances is also a compulsory course for parents.
Some parents are particularly strict, or their families are in financial difficulty, so their children have never had pocket money since childhood. Their desire for money will be magnified and distorted, and they will engage in retaliatory consumption when they have their own disposable income as adults.
Chen Ru didn't listen to every word Wu Chunqin said, but she was so happy tonight that she thought she might try to listen.
At least Wen Ying doesn't have a tendency to spend money lavishly now. Apart from buying a used car for her family, her other spending is within the range of a high school student.
Unconsciously, Chen Ru has been changing. Even though her tone is fierce at this moment and she emphasizes the word "suggestion", it is still a change and a huge progress!
Wen Ying didn't know what to say for a moment. She had prepared a lot of words but nothing came of it. After a while, she finally found her voice: "The decoration of the house—"
"Don't worry about the renovations. Your dad and I will find a way. Our family isn't in such a difficult situation that you need to worry about finances!"
Wen Ying had heard this more than once.
Parents’ self-esteem, parents’ pride… maybe Wen Ying will have to wait until she becomes a mother herself to fully understand it.
Wen Ying hesitated to speak, but Chen Ru waved her hand and said, "Go to bed, you have to go to school tomorrow!"
There was no blame, no interrogation. The huge hurricane that Wen Ying faced when she secretly published the novel and then sued someone just passed by so easily?
Wen Ying walked in a daze and looked back several times, but she didn't see Chen Ru regretting her decision.
Then Wen Ying slipped into her room like a fish.
"I made it through safely!"
Wen Ying was very excited and sent a message to Xie Qian. Xie Qian replied with a "Congratulations". Wen Ying felt that her idol was too cold and couldn't help but take credit for it in her tone: "A reporter just called and wanted to interview me, but I turned him down because I was afraid it would affect my studies!"
Now, Xie Qian should praise her, right?
Wen Ying happily waited for the compliment from her idol. This time, her phone vibrated a minute later, and Xie Qian's reply was still concise and powerful.
——"You are sober."
Ah, that's it?!
Seeing Wen Ying close the door, Wen Dongrong moved closer to Chen Ru.
"Her shares in the Shrimp King can be sold for quite a bit of money, right? So we really don't care how she spends them."
Intellectually, Wen Dongrong knows that he has to speak for Wen Ying and cover for her in order to get the generous monthly "filial piety red envelope", but emotionally, Lao Wen still finds it a little hard to accept that his finances are being controlled and he has to accept money at the mercy of his daughter.
If Chen Ru confiscated Wen Ying's money, although Wen Dongrong would lose the money for filial piety, he would also regain the dignity of the head of the family - Wen Ying has no money, so don't think of using the evil money to corrupt his position and shake his will!
Seeing Chen Ru remained silent, Wen Dongrong continued to slander her, "Think carefully! Besides the money from the Shrimp King's share transfer, there's also the royalties from 'Teenage Idol' every three months. That's a ton of money! How can you let that little girl Wen Ying take care of it?"
Chen Ru was indeed shaken by what Wen Dongrong said.
But Chen Ru had just made a bold statement and now she had to take it back in the face. Not to mention whether Wen Ying would make a fuss, Chen Ru couldn't get over it in her heart.
