Fu Jingchen rested his chin on his interlaced fingers.
His brows furrowed, and he looked very troubled.
On one hand, there was her mother's persuasion, and on the other hand, there was Zhou Luo's encouragement.
What should he choose?
Mother's words make a lot of sense. Treating Zhou Luo even better in the future would be the best compensation. After all, Zhou Luo still has to go into the Fu family. Giving Mother some face would make everyone feel indebted to Zhou Luo, which is obviously better.
He thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Come on, I asked the aunt to make two bowls of soup. Take one for Zhou Luo." Han Yue handed the cloth bag to Fu Jingchen. "I'll take it with you."
Zhou Luo had just finished dinner, but to let Zhou Luo know her mother's good intentions, Fu Jingchen took the insulated food container: "Luo Luo will be very happy."
Suburban factory buildings.
As night fell, all the incandescent lights in the venue were turned on.
Fu Jingsheng and He Wei stood at the roller shutter door: "It's starting to look quite good."
He Wei stroked his chin: "That's right, boss. It feels like I'm back to when I first graduated. My first job was in a factory like this. I'm so excited to think that this place will be full of people in just a few days."
Fu Jingsheng, however, showed no joy: "Fu's warehouses are bigger than this."
“Boss, you can’t make that comparison. You built this from scratch. Didn’t Auntie say that when Grandpa Fu started his business, it was just one room, one piece of equipment, and two people? Look at you, you’ve built a fully-equipped factory all in one go.” He Wei comforted him.
"That makes sense. In any case, we have a place and the preparations are complete. We should celebrate."
"Yes, we should celebrate. I've arranged the interview times for all the candidates, and I'll send the forms to your email right away. Please take a look."
“You’re the most reliable one. Let’s go eat together. I’ll call Rong Yan and ask her what she wants to eat. It’s on me.” Fu Jingsheng patted He Wei on the shoulder confidently.
At Lanshan Garden, Rongyan led the children on their way.
The news that the new factory was about to open lifted some of the gloom hanging over everyone's heads.
A few days later.
Fu Jingsheng wore a black suit and tie, while Rong Yan wore a white Chanel-style suit.
Han Yue wore a cheongsam, and the children all chose little dresses.
The whole family dressed up for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
He Wei and Ye Jianming arrived at the factory early, where the two large gold-plated characters "Xingda" shone brightly in the sunlight.
Three men lined up the firecrackers.
Yu Wenhao was in charge of setting off the fireworks.
He Wei originally wanted to have a few reporters take pictures, but Fu Jingsheng said that this time they had to keep a low profile.
Rong Yan was a little nervous.
Her palms were sweaty: "Honey, look, has my makeup smudged?"
"Honey, am I dressed appropriately?"
"Honey, what if I say something wrong later?"
...
Fu Jingsheng stroked his wife's hand: "Don't be afraid, they're all family. Just like usual, there's nothing to worry about."
Han Yue was just as nervous as Rong Yan, and she kept wiping the sweat from the tip of her nose.
A commercial vehicle arrived at the scene.
After the driver parked the car, Fu Jingsheng was the first to get out.
Besides friends and company employees, some local residents also gathered at the scene.
"President Fu is here." He Wei dismissed the others.
The loudspeaker blared.
He Wei served as the host.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was successfully completed.
Several tables were set up at the venue, as Fu Jingsheng had hired a chef in advance to celebrate the company's opening.
Shen Xingzhi, who was unable to attend, sent a video message to congratulate the opening, and the opening flower basket was delivered to the site on time.
I thought that all the rituals would be over after lunch.
Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, a small truck delivered ten flower baskets and a jade cabbage display stand. Han Yue knew a bit about jade and knew at a glance that the jade display stand was quite valuable.
This set costs at least 100,000 to 200,000 yuan. Who is so generous?
The flower basket only had opening wishes on it, without a signature. Fu Jingsheng asked the deliveryman, who said that they had picked it up from the flower shop and didn't know who placed the order.
After signing his name, Fu Jingsheng asked Rong Yan, "Who could it be?"
Rong Yan shook her head: "Besides my closest friends, I haven't told anyone else that we're opening today. What about you?"
“Me too. Those who came have already sent gifts. Although Xingzhi didn’t attend, the flower basket was sent by her, so it definitely wasn’t her.” Rong Yan was just as confused as Fu Jingsheng.
"Could the person who sent the flowers have ulterior motives?" Rong Yan became wary. "Should we return them?"
The two people are discussing how to deal with these things.
Fu Jingsheng's phone rang.
The screen displayed a string of numbers.
"Shh, it might be the flower delivery person calling." Fu Jingsheng gestured for Rong Yan to be quiet.
"Hello, who is this?" Fu Jingsheng answered the phone.
Li Yun smiled faintly: "Congratulations on the grand opening, Mr. Fu. Did you receive the gift?"
Fu Jingsheng didn't immediately realize who it was.
Unable to hear the voice on the other end, Li Yun said directly, "It seems you don't remember me. I am Li Yun. I didn't expect President Fu to build the new company so quickly. You didn't accept my investment before, so I can only send some flowers and plants to congratulate you."
"Li Yun." Fu Jingsheng remembered. After Lin Wei disappeared, he had almost forgotten about this person.
Fu Jingsheng couldn't tell whether Li Yun was a friend or foe.
"Mr. Li, please accept the flowers, but they are too expensive for a table setting. Please give me an address so I can send them back."
“Valuable? A few thousand yuan worth of counterfeit goods. Don’t throw it away. I never take back what I give away. President Fu, I’m in Tiancheng. Would you do me the honor of having dinner with me tonight? I know your company makes molds. I can introduce you to a friend.” Li Yun had never suffered such humiliation.
He couldn't get past Lin Wei; he was good at manipulating people's hearts, but he never expected to fall into Lin Wei's hands.
He'll never feel at ease if he doesn't swallow this anger.
He wanted to see a completely new and even more glorious Fu family when Lin Wei emerged.
Let Lin Wei know that she went through all that trouble for nothing, wasting her youth, while Fu Jingsheng emerged unscathed.
Fu Jingsheng didn't believe that Li Yun would help him unconditionally just to get revenge on Lin Wei.
"President Fu, do you still not believe that I genuinely want to help you?" Putting himself in Li Yun's shoes, if someone were to fawn over Li Yun, he would also doubt that person's motives.
Fu Jingsheng didn't hide anything. He said, "Yes, we're not related. I don't believe you'd spend so much money to help me get revenge on a woman. That would be like losing both your wife and your army."
“But I really have no other purpose. I know that Lin Wei’s only hope in this life is revenge. Revenge is more important than her life. I will not let her have her way. On the surface, it seems that I am helping you, but in fact you are also helping me and helping me to vent my anger.”
"Mr. Li, you are a businessman. You should know when to cut your losses. Since your relationship has already suffered a setback, you should move on. Why waste money on the past? The worst thing for a businessman is to act impulsively and emotionally."
"I have no children, and I could spend all the money I have now in several lifetimes. Money is the least important thing to me." These were Li Yun's true feelings. Since he couldn't take the money with him after he died, he might as well use it to do things that would make him happy.
