Originally, Xu Nanzhi and Wen Ting's relationship made him a little wary, but now looking at the old man's attitude, he was afraid that it would be absolutely impossible for them to be together. Without the help of the Wen family, Xu Nanzhi was nothing to be afraid of.
"Hey, Dad, you're right. I just saw it being spread around in the circle, so I started to think the same way."
Afterwards, he asked tentatively, "What about Nanzhi?"
"I'll tell Nanzhi that she doesn't need to listen to rumors like this anymore. They're all nonsense."
Seeing the old man's change of heart, Chen Jimin rolled his eyes and continued to wail, "Brother-in-law, don't worry about whether Nanzhi has a boyfriend or not. Let's save Xiaoxu first. He's now being accused of plagiarizing research results!"
"If this is true, I'm afraid my studies will be in jeopardy."
"You know, our Chen family only has one promising child, Xiaoxu. We can't let these little things ruin his life."
"My sister back then..."
Seeing that Chen Jimin was about to bring up the past again, Old Master Xu frowned and interrupted, "Alright, why do you keep bringing up the past? I know I was the one who let your sister down, but I also have my reasons."
"It's hard to explain what happened back then in just a few words. Anyway, I'm already doing my best to compensate you now, so let's not talk about what happened back then anymore."
There was some impatience in the old man's tone. Chen Jimin also knew how to read his expression and kept quiet.
He knew that some things, if only mentioned briefly, would awaken the old man's guilt. If he said too much, it would be bad.
This is also the reason why he has been able to cooperate with Xu's for so many years. The old man is not unaware of the problems with the raw materials in his factory. However, every time this matter is reported to the old man, he always inadvertently mentions his sister.
The old man felt guilty, but not too much, just enough.
The old man just said, "Alright, I'll tell Nanzhi about what happened. We're all family, and I'm sure Xiaoxu won't be wronged."
Mr. Xu's words gave Chen Jimin some peace of mind.
The son’s matter has been promised, and the rest is the company’s business.
"Brother-in-law, I'll leave Xiaoxu's matter to you."
"Look at the raw materials issue. You said there was something that couldn't be negotiated, but when Xu Nanzhi arrived, he directly stopped the supply of raw materials to my factory. My employees also need to eat. So many raw materials were originally prepared for the latest quarter of cooperation with Xu's company. Now they are not needed. There are piles of them in the warehouse. Who can I sell them to?"
Chen Jimin was also smart. He never mentioned his profits, but only talked about the employees in the factory.
This trick of moral kidnapping was clearly played by him.
Xu Kui lowered his head to pour tea for the old man. When he heard what he said, he looked up at Chen Jimin.
He didn't know that his uncle was also a good actor.
The old man glanced at Chen Jimin, who was wiping away his tears. "The quality of your factory's products doesn't meet the standards, so Nanzhi has stopped supplying you. Is there anything wrong with this?"
With just one sentence, Chen Jimin, who had just been feeling sad, stopped pursuing his hobby.
The trick was seen through, and Chen Jimin stopped acting.
"Brother-in-law, when I supplied these raw materials to Xu's company, everything was fine without any problems. Why is it that after Xu Nanzhi came, this and that are not allowed?"
"I think she did it on purpose." When saying this, Chen Jimin looked unhappy and as if he was complaining.
Old Master Xu glanced at him and said, "Did you do it on purpose? Don't you know what your own raw materials are like? Why would Nanzhi do it on purpose?"
"I was fine with turning a blind eye to your previous batch of raw materials, but I've also heard about what happened this time. The Xu family just made a comeback in public opinion, so they naturally can't be so ambiguous now. I think Nan Zhi did the right thing. The Xu family's reputation going forward is of paramount importance."
"Besides, it's not like all your raw material supplies have been cut off. Aren't there still some left? With the quality and purchase price, it should be more than enough to pay the workers. Just bear with it for the time being. Once the Xu family incident is over, I'll go talk to Nan Zhi and talk it over. I'll still buy the raw materials from you."
