Chapter 037 Jinjiang First Launch
Su Shan's eyes turned, and he immediately said, "Of course it's bad news!"
She had just witnessed the entire process of Tianci's arrest, and she didn't want this kind of blunder to happen to her, so she wanted to hear the bad news first.
Bai Mian nodded: "Then be prepared, I'm about to tell you bad news - your boyfriend is cheating on you."
After Bai Mian finished speaking, Su Shan immediately turned around and looked at A Peng, as if hoping that A Peng would stand up and refute. Unexpectedly, A Peng shrank his head like a turtle, tightly closed his mouth, and said nothing.
Su Shan asked in disbelief: "Apeng, did you really cheat on me? Tell me something! I don't understand. We go to work together, go home together, and are together all the time. How did you find the time to cheat on me?"
A Peng was a little impatient and stood up to leave, but Su Shan stopped him and said, "Stop! Who is this woman?"
Ah Peng sneered and finally spoke: "Okay, okay, since you insist on pestering me, then I will give you an answer. Sister Yan and I are together. Are you satisfied?"
"Sister Yan?!" Su Shan was so shocked that her voice changed. "Our HR director? She's already over 40 years old. How can you two have anything in common? You're a 20-something looking for someone in her 40s. Isn't that just like hooking up with a rich woman?"
Ah Peng shook his shoulders nonchalantly: "Tsk, you're right, I did hook up with someone, so what? What law stipulates that hooking up with a rich woman is illegal?"
Su Shan said, "But you were not like this before. When we were dating on campus, you told me that you would work hard to realize your dreams and build a career. Don't you remember all that?"
Ah Peng laughed out loud: "Hahaha, I was just talking nonsense at that time, why did you take it seriously? In school, I only cared about whether my girlfriend was pretty or not, but it's different in society. In society, making money is king! My dream is to make money. I'm hooking up with a human resources director. Do you think I'm far from getting a promotion and a pay raise? How can this not be considered realizing my dream?"
Lame brother pouted: "Tsk tsk tsk, you always say that other people are gold diggers, but it turns out that you are the most gold digger!"
Su Shan was so angry that she was shaking: "Okay, you got a promotion and a raise, but what about me? My dismissal has something to do with you, right? It must be because you and Sister Yan are together, and she thinks I'm a nuisance, so she kicked me out of the company!"
Ah Peng immediately denied: "Don't throw all that dirty water on me! You were fired because you were stupid, it has nothing to do with me. Even if Sister Yan is the HR director, she only has some influence within the company. Can she control the entire industry to blacklist you? Look for your own reasons for everything, I won't take the blame!"
Su Shan cried sadly: "You just got together with her and you're already protecting her like this. You don't care about our relationship for four years in college at all..."
Seeing her crying on the ground, A Peng actually smiled shamelessly: "I am not protecting her, but my own future. If I don't marry a rich woman, how long will it take for us to work so hard? Can I stay in Beijing by working? Can I earn a house by working?"
"To tell you the truth, I came to Beijing for this purpose. Since the first day I arrived in Beijing, I have been looking for a rich woman. If it weren't for you and I sharing the rent, I would have dumped you long ago!"
"Look at you. You have no savings and your family can't help you. What future do you have? Just work for the rest of your life!"
After saying these words, A Peng walked away. Su Shan wanted to chase him and scold him, but suddenly he heard Bai Mian's voice from behind: "Don't you want to know what the good news is?"
Su Shan shouted in despair: "What good news can there be? My life is over. My career and relationships are a mess. I don't see any hope at all!"
"The good news is that you are Lin Qiqing's daughter." Bai Mian said this calmly, and the store suddenly exploded.
"Master, you remembered it wrongly, didn't you? It was clearly a son that Mr. Lin lost!"
"Could she have undergone a sex change operation or something? But I don't think this girl looks like that."
"Be quiet, stop guessing, and listen to what the master says!"
"Master, what did you say?" Su Shan stopped crying and repeated in shock: "You just said - I am Lin Qiqing's daughter?"
Bai Mian nodded, and Su Shan crossed her arms silently. It was obvious that her brain had completely shut down.
A Peng, who had originally walked to the door, walked back quietly and listened silently.
Confused, Lame took out his phone and searched the Internet, then whispered to Bai Mian, "Hey, could you really have miscalculated? Look at this photo of Lin Qiqing when he was young on the Internet, he doesn't look like her at all!"
Su Shan grabbed the phone from Lame Brother and said in agreement, "Master, if he is my father, why do I look nothing like him?"
"Because you look like your mother, Lin Qiqing's wife who disappeared twenty years ago." Bai Mian said slowly.
"My mother? In other words, my current parents are not my biological parents. I was adopted?" Su Shan exclaimed in shock. "No wonder they are so cold to me! But what about the son mentioned in the news? Do I have an older brother or younger brother?"
Bai Mian: "No, you are Lin Qiqing's only child. As for the son they were looking for in the news, it was actually a huge misunderstanding."
"Before starting his business, Lin Qiqing was just an ordinary worker. His wife was named Chen Fang. When Chen Fang was five months pregnant, Lin Qiqing was invited by a friend to go to the south to start a business. Because the journey was long, Lin Qiqing did not go home for two years and only kept in touch with his wife through letters."
"After Lin Qiqing left, Chen Fang gave birth to you. Because the concept of favoring boys over girls was very strong at that time, Chen Fang was afraid that her in-laws would dislike her, so she lied in the letter and said that she gave birth to a boy. In the next two years, she raised you alone, while Lin Qiqing always thought that his child was a boy."
"When you were just two years old, Chen Fang took you back to visit your parents. On the way, you passed through a mountain road and were blackmailed by a human trafficker hiding on the road. You and your mother were abducted and sold. Unfortunately, your mother died at the hands of the human trafficker, and you were sold to your current adoptive parents."
"After you disappeared, Lin Qiqing realized that something had happened at home. He immediately returned to his hometown to look for you, but all his inquiries were in vain. He had no choice but to return to the South to start his own business."
"Later, the Little Tanmao Spicy Noodles became popular all over the country, and his flavor company grew bigger and bigger, opening many branches. But just when his career was successful, Lin Qiqing suffered a car accident, which caused him to lose his fertility, so he never remarried and did not have children for the rest of his life."
"In this case, you will become Lin Qiqing's only child in this life. He once swore that he would find you."
"After the company became bigger and stronger, Lin Qiqing moved the headquarters to Beijing and began to search for his wife and son across the country, but to no avail. He didn't know that his wife had passed away long ago, and the son he had been looking for was actually a daughter!"
"I am actually... the daughter of our company's boss... it's actually me!" Su Shan kept repeating this sentence, her whole world was turned upside down.
Lame Brother was full of envy: "Oh my God, it turns out that the heir that the whole Internet is looking for is you! Your life is too dramatic. One second you were a fired employee, and the next second you became the heir of the entire company! Oh my god, if you go back, won't you scare the interim chairman to death?"
"No," Bai Mian said, "She won't be surprised. Lin Qinghong already knew that you are the missing child."
"She knows?" Su Shan asked with wide eyes, "How could she know? We haven't done a paternity test."
Bai Mian: "There is no need for a paternity test. You look exactly like your mother when she was young. When Chen Fang married Lin Qiqing, Lin Qinghong attended their wedding. She remembered your mother's appearance. You bumped into her at the corner that day. When she saw your face, she immediately thought of her missing sister-in-law, and then she guessed that you might be the child from that year."
"Then why doesn't she acknowledge me? She is my aunt——" Su Shan was stunned when she said this. She widened her eyes and said, "Is it because of... property?"
Bai Mian: "That's right. If Lin Qiqing doesn't find his biological child, then Lin Qinghong will be his only heir. All the property under Lin Qiqing's name, including the flavor company, will belong to Lin Qinghong. But if the child comes back, she will get nothing."
Su Shan clenched her fist nervously: "She didn't want others to recognize me, so she fired me and put me on the industry blacklist!"
"This rich family is really not simple, with so many twists and turns," Lame Brother touched his chin, "It seems that you will be faced with intrigues when you return, so you have to be careful!"
Just as Su Shan was about to speak, her cell phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was her parents, whom she hadn't contacted for several months. No, she should call them adoptive parents now.
"Hello." She answered the phone indifferently.
The adoptive mother's flattering voice came from the other end of the phone: "Shanshan, your father and I were just browsing our phones and saw a live broadcast room. The girl in the live broadcast room had a similar experience to yours. Mom wants to ask you, did you go to a fortune teller?"
"You ignored me for several months, and now you contact me just for this?" Su Shan asked back.
The adoptive mother smiled awkwardly: "Haha, Shanshan, we are all family. Look at what you are saying. We are also concerned about your future. Oh, I saw in the live broadcast room that you were answering the phone. This person is really you, right? Shanshan, that's great, good luck is coming for our family! Mommy tells you, what this master calculated is true, you are indeed not our biological child, you were bought by us, but it doesn't matter, after you inherit the company, we..."
Su Shan said with contempt: "Who are you and your family? You have never treated me as your own daughter. I am just a tool that you bought and raised for your old age!"
The foster mother scolded him, "How can you talk to your mother like that? If it weren't for us, would you have lived to this age?"
Su Shan said angrily: "If it weren't for you, I could have grown up with my biological parents. If it weren't for buyers like you, there wouldn't be so many dealers!"
After saying this, she hung up the phone decisively.
At this time, Ah Peng, who had been lingering nearby, came up to him with a smile, licked his cheek and said:
"Ahem, Shanshan... Is it too late for me to get back together with you now?"
