After Chen Zhengang left, Huang Yanhong said, "Husband, we must make Chen Ze hand over all the money, and Chen Wei should also receive half of the shares in that garment factory."
“I called him and asked him to come back first, then we can talk slowly together.”
He made several calls, but no one answered.
"He probably didn't have his phone with him. I'll go back to my hometown to find him."
Huang Yanhong grabbed her handbag from the table. "I'll go with you."
"..."
When Chen Ze saw that his phone had stopped ringing, he put it in his pocket. He had already decided to stop having anything to do with his biased father, so he ignored the phone even when it rang a few times.
In his past life, he married Liang Xiaoman, but his father refused to lend him money for the wedding banquet. Fortunately, Liang Xiaoman did not ask him for a dowry, otherwise the marriage would not have been possible.
Fortunately, he had a generous brother, Jason Zhang, who was willing to lend him money. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing to send out invitations only to have the wedding fall through.
When his younger brother Chen Wei got married, he received a new car, a new house, a TV, a refrigerator, and everything else.
Sometimes, he felt that he wasn't Chen Zhensheng's biological son, and now, on his first day back after being reborn, he was being beaten and kicked so ruthlessly.
At that moment, he was screaming in his heart: I am your son, not a toy. Even if I really made a mistake, is it necessary to be so harsh?
Having lived two lives, he had given up on this father and no longer harbored any illusions about this family.
Silently, he took out a photo of his mother from his pocket. He had cut the photo in half with scissors; the other half, which contained a photo of his father, had already been thrown into the trash can. Looking at the half of the photo of his mother, tears unknowingly streamed down his face.
He murmured softly, "Mom, are you doing well in the other world? Your son misses you."
A child with a mother is like a treasure, a child without a mother is like a weed. No one cares about you no matter what you do. You can only grow freely like a weed, swallowing all the bitterness and sweetness on your own, and bearing all the wind and rain on your own.
Chen Ze clenched his fist. "In this lifetime, I will make you regret treating me this way."
Suddenly, a scruffy, dirty-looking middle-aged man stood in front of him. "Hello, boss, my ID card and wallet were stolen. Could you give me a job as a security guard? I'm starving; I haven't eaten for two days."
He put his mother's photo into his wallet, then asked, "Uncle, it's a government requirement to work that you need an ID card. How did you lose your ID card?"
Chen Ze saw that he was tall and strong, with a heroic look, somewhat like a retired soldier. The fact that he could still maintain his integrity and not steal after his wallet was stolen and he went hungry for two days was enough to prove his character.
"Uncle, let me take you to get some noodles first, and then I'll try to think of a way to solve your job problem."
The man was moved and bowed deeply to him. Then he followed Chen Ze into a Lanzhou noodle shop, ate two large bowls in one go, and patted his belly with satisfaction.
While eating noodles, he learned that the man's name was Zhao Youde, a 40-year-old veteran from Northwest Hancheng, who was a member of the elite special forces and had a 10-year-old son who was in school.
Because of a failed business venture, he lost all of his family's assets, and his wife divorced him in a fit of anger. In order to make a living and raise his son, he had no choice but to leave his hometown to find work.
He accidentally fell asleep on a slow train and had his phone and wallet stolen. Since his ID card was inside the wallet, he lost it as well. He spent two days looking for work, asking many recruiters, but no one dared to hire him without his ID card.
After much deliberation, he decided to help Zhao Youde. Everyone has difficult times. When you have the means, lending a helping hand will make society more harmonious and loving.
"Uncle De, how about this? You can't enter the factory without an ID card, but you're a former soldier, and I happen to need a bodyguard. You can stay by my side and be responsible for my safety. The salary is eight thousand a month, including room and board. What do you think..."
Zhao Youde was deeply moved, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Thank you, thank you so much for taking me in and giving me a good job."
Chen Ze patted him on the shoulder. "Don't be shy, everyone has difficult times." He took out a thousand yuan from his wallet and handed it to him. "Considering your current situation, this is an advance payment for you. I will deduct it from your salary. Use it to buy two sets of clothes."
"Thanks!"
Soon, he and Zhao Youde walked out of the pedestrian street after buying two sets of clothes.
"Boss, where do we go now? Should we continue recruiting employees here?"
"No, there are fewer people now. We'll go to a car dealership and buy a small car for commuting. It's a bit inconvenient to take the bus every day and take a taxi."
Shortly after, the two arrived at a German Audi dealership. They looked around for five minutes but no salesperson came to pay them any attention.
A young woman with some good looks cursed, "Why do these migrant workers keep coming in to freeload off the air conditioning these days? They even pretend to be buying cars, it's disgusting."
The cashier laughed and said, "Sister Ling, if you don't go and serve them, the boss will deduct your bonus again. He doesn't care who they are."
“I’m not going,” she said, then walked up to an intern who was playing a mobile game and called out, “Xiao Ai, a guest has come in, didn’t you see? Still playing on your phone.”
The petite and delicate Xiao Ai quickly put away her phone, stood up, and said with a smile, "Sister Ling, are there any guests? I'll go right away."
Xiao Ai approached the two men and, seeing their cheap clothes, felt a little disappointed. However, she still smiled and asked, "Gentlemen, what kind of car would you like to see?"
Chen Ze pointed to an Audi A6 and asked, "How much does this car cost?"
