While Old Wen was sneezing wildly in the next room, Little Wen was thinking about how to betray his father to protect himself.
I must not tell anyone about the 10 million yuan investment in Tianjiao. If I tell her, she will die too.
She had to think of something that could divert Manager Chen's attention without putting herself in danger - at least make sure that most of the firepower was on Lao Wen, and she would at most be shocked by the aftermath.
Wen Ying asked Chen Ru for a "hint", not just to add fuel to the fire, but also to deceive Chen Ru to see what Manager Chen had already grasped!
After two rounds of back-and-forth between the mother and daughter, Wen Ying roughly understood: Manager Chen was not actually sure what Lao Wen was hiding. It was Lao Wen himself who was not able to keep his composure, and his recent abnormal behavior at home had aroused Manager Chen's suspicion.
I always get up in the middle of the night.
A person stayed in the toilet for half a day and hummed a song in the toilet.
Taking all these circumstances into consideration, it was obvious that something exciting and guilty had happened to Lao Wen.
Chen Ru even suspected that Lao Wen had an extramarital affair——
In front of Wen Ying, Chen Ru would not speak so clearly. Even if Wen Ying understood, she would pretend not to understand and deliberately mumble, "It's nothing, actually. I just earned some royalties, and since my dad was so poor he even quit smoking, I would sometimes secretly give him some money."
…That’s it?!
So that bastard behaved abnormally because he had his daughter's help and some private money, and he was afraid of being discovered by me?
Look at that achievement!
Chen Ru had a very sour expression.
Although they agreed not to use the royalties earned by Wen Ying, Wen Dongrong was secretly spending Wen Ying's money. This made Chen Ru lose face.
Wen Ying repeatedly assured that the aid she gave to her father definitely did not exceed the "one thousand yuan" limit, but Chen Ru's expression did not ease much.
"Alright, take a rest first. I'll settle your mistakes with you another day. I'm warning you, if you dare to tip off your father, your crime will be even more severe!"
Chen Ru left after saying this, obviously not intending to give Wen Ying and her daughter time to collude with each other.
Wen Ying quickly tiptoed out and pretended to drink water in the living room, but in fact she was listening to the movements in her parents' room.
Poor old Wen was scolded and denounced by Chen Ru as a liar and a cheat.
It's terrible when a woman brings up old things. Chen Ru puts things that are completely unrelated together.
The couple has been married for so many years, and there are so many mistakes that Wen Dongrong has made!
Chen Ru started talking about how her mother-in-law favored boys over girls just after she gave birth to Wen Ying. She also talked about how Wen Dongrong helped the Wen family without any bottom line, and how she didn't know how much money he secretly gave to Wen Hongyan. She also said that he became arrogant after he succeeded. The two of them were obviously preparing for the exam together, but Wen Dongrong was cheating during the preparation... This repetition of old accounts made Wen Dongrong's heart tremble.
Wen Dongrong has been feeling guilty ever since he hid the fact that he had invested 10 million yuan in Tianjiao from Wen Ying. After being scolded by Chen Ru, he almost surrendered.
Seeing that Chen Ru was just beating around the bush and was reluctant to talk about the 10 million investment, Wen Dongrong wanted to confess several times to get leniency but forced himself to hold back.
Years of work experience have taught Lao Wen that the more times like this happen, the more he must not lose his composure!
Confess and get leniency, or spend the rest of your life in prison.
Resist strict measures and go home for the New Year.
If Chen Ru knew about the 10 million investment, he would probably stay on the balcony all the time to experience all four seasons!
So, what evidence does this Rouge Tiger have?
Wen Dongrong decided to cut his own throat and, while Chen Ru was cursing him dry-mouthed, he took the initiative to hand over the private money he had hidden under the mattress.
"Wife, stop scolding me. I'm going to confess everything. Wen Ying secretly gave me some money. Here it is!"
Wen Dongrong was very proactive in admitting his mistake, and his words were very instructive: "I couldn't resist the temptation of money, but you have to put yourself in my shoes and think about how I feel. I want Wen Ying's filial piety money, not because I'm short of money. What would I do with it? I've even quit smoking now! I mainly feel satisfied psychologically. Let's not talk about the distant past. Take the children of Lao Li for example. They graduated from college but are still relying on their parents. They asked Lao Li for money to buy gifts when they found a job, and they asked Lao Li to use his savings to buy a house when they were getting married. I'm different. My daughter is only in high school and she knows how to earn money and spend it on me... I know I was wrong, so wrong, so wrong!"
The private money Wen Dongrong hid under the mattress was not much, less than two thousand yuan at most.
So although he spoke sincerely, Chen Ru was a little skeptical.
Just for these two thousand dollars, are you going to be unable to sleep at night and hide in the toilet humming a song?
It doesn't make sense logically!
Chen Ru suspected that Wen Dongrong was avoiding the important issue.
"Do you think you can still lie to me? Wen Ying told me everything!"
——Hey, you evil girl!
Wen Dongrong suddenly understood.
No wonder I sneezed for no reason just now.
Can you stop sneezing?
The daughters of other families are like warm little cotton-padded jackets, but his family's black-hearted cotton-padded jacket is full of leaks and has no warmth-keeping function. It neither warms the body nor the heart. Now she has even done something immoral, such as selling her father for survival.
This is not just black cotton, even the black cotton in the clothes has been taken out, leaving only an empty, tattered cotton coat shell!
At this moment, Wen Dongrong hesitated, thinking of simply blowing himself up and dragging Wen Ying down with him, so that both father and daughter would perish together and bear the heavy burden of "10 million" together.
After hesitating for two or three seconds, Wen Dongrong quickly crossed out this option.
no.
His position in the family is different now than before.
For making the same mistake, the severity of the punishment he and Hei Xinmian received would definitely be different.
If he took the initiative to expose the black-hearted cotton, it would probably hurt the enemy by 800 and himself by 1,000. It would not be worthwhile to get himself involved just to drag the black-hearted cotton into the water.
Moreover, in order to protect himself, Hei Xinmian might even put the entire blame on him.
At worst, the black-hearted person can easily avoid punishment by shedding a few crocodile tears and acting coquettishly, and then using the excuse of studying for the final exam.
After careful consideration, Wen Dongrong was forced to choose to be a "kind father" and bravely sacrifice himself:
"Wen Ying told you all? Actually, I didn't want to hide it from you for too long. I wanted to confess a long time ago! Don't blame her for this. You said the family doesn't need the money she earns. She is a half-grown child and she must want to prove herself after earning money. She gave me the money and I accepted it. This way, she feels that she has contributed to the family and feels better. I am also helping her. Of course, she is younger than me, she is the child and I am the father. If we have to say what the mistakes are, they are definitely more mine."
In the living room, Wen Ying, who was eavesdropping with her ear pressed against the door, was somewhat moved.
Wen Ying guessed that Lao Wen would definitely not reveal the "10 million" secret himself.
But Lao Wen chose to take responsibility for the mistake himself, which surprised Wen Ying.
When did the fake father-daughter relationship become so solid?
Facts have proved that Wen Ying's life experience is not rich enough, and she has not fully mastered Lao Wen's routine. The feeling of being touched only lasted for a dozen seconds before it was broken by Lao Wen's subsequent tricks.
After being married for many years, Chen Ru understood Wen Dongrong better and did not believe his sophistry:
"You mean you feel wronged for accepting Wen Ying's money? How much money did she give you in total? Where did you spend it? Now tell me clearly every penny. And why were you hiding in the bathroom and laughing to yourself?"
