Chapter 51 She's Been Mine for a Long Time
"Such a big appetite?"
Guan Yu looked at Fang Lanxin with some disbelief.
He frowned, then pinched Fang Lanxin's nose: "Why?"
"Because the idea came from me, and because I have existing warehouses and freight lines!"
Fang Lanxin snorted, quite self-righteously, and she didn't feel guilty at all about getting an extra 10%.
Seeing Fang Lanxin's sly little face, Guan Yu suddenly laughed. He looked at Fang Lanxin and said, "I originally thought I could take advantage of the situation!"
"Hmph, I can give in to you in other ways, but when it comes to business, it has to be done officially!" Fang Lanxin immediately sat up straight and looked at him very seriously: "Second Master, our contract must be in black and white!"
Looking at her serious expression, Guan Yu actually found her quite adorable. With her like that, he would be willing to do any work for nothing, let alone give her a 4:6 split.
"Okay, then I'll go back and write the contract?" Master Guan tentatively asked.
Fang Lanxin nodded: "I'll be responsible for providing resources and equipment, and you'll be responsible for operations. Don't tell anyone that I have shares in this business, understand?"
"Okay, whatever you say."
"My dear Mr. Fang, from now on I'm yours, okay?"
Lord Guan affectionately patted Fang Lanxin's head.
Fang Lanxin immediately grabbed Guan Erye's tie, moved closer to him, and winked mischievously: "Second Master, weren't you already mine a long time ago?"
Her current appearance was seductive, and Guan Yu's throat bobbed as he leaned in for a fierce kiss, but Fang Lanxin pressed her against his chest: "Not now, you're still injured. Once you're healed, you can do whatever you want with her!"
"You're deliberately torturing me!" Guan Erye grabbed Fang Lanxin's waist and laughed, "Alan, you really do know how to torture me."
Upon hearing this, Fang Lanxin couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that the two of them had always been like this since they were children. She would always bully the Second Master and always play pranks on him, but he never seemed to hold it against her.
Fang Lanxin hadn't thought much about it before, but now she understood that Guan Yu's love for her had long been reflected in his usual indulgence.
Guan Yu tidied himself up and left reluctantly. Just as he was leaving, he ran into Lin Meiling, who was holding a child.
Lin Meiling, holding her child, stood there for a moment when she saw Guan Erye come out from inside. She was stunned for a moment, but still greeted him politely: "Hello, Uncle Guan Er."
"Hmm." Guan Yu responded indifferently, then walked past Lin Meiling and left.
Lin Meiling came in carrying the child, smiling as she looked at Fang Lanxin sitting on the sofa: "Mom, Tianle missed you!"
"Grandma, I miss you so much!" Tianle's speech was still a little unclear, but she ran to Fang Lanxin's side with her short legs.
In her previous life, the child was already gone by this time. Now, looking at the child's rosy and innocent smiling face, Fang Lanxin finally softened. She bent down, picked up the child, placed him on her lap, and gently touched his cheek.
"Tianle looks much better lately. Has Dr. Huang been giving him his check-ups on time?"
Fang Lanxin frowned slightly and looked at Lin Meiling with some concern.
This child was born with congenital deficiencies and poor health, so raising him was really difficult. If he hadn't been born into the Huo family, he probably wouldn't have survived.
Lin Meiling felt a warmth in her heart seeing how much Fang Lanxin cared for the child. The biggest conflict between her and Fang Lanxin stemmed from this child.
Previously, Fang Lanxin disliked the child because of his poor health, believed he couldn't inherit the Huo family's assets, and felt unworthy of being a descendant of the Huo family. However, for Lin Meiling, none of that mattered. The most important thing was that this was her child, her precious child, and she wouldn't allow anyone to look down on him or slander him!
However, Fang Lanxin's attitude towards the child has clearly changed, so Lin Meiling's attitude towards Fang Lanxin has also changed.
“Mom, don’t worry, Tianle’s health has improved a lot since taking the life-saving medicine. The doctor said that as long as he exercises regularly, he will gradually become as healthy as other children.” Lin Meiling’s eyes reddened as she said this: “Mom, I’ve been wanting to find an opportunity to thank you properly for what happened last time.”
"As a grandmother, this is what I should do," Fang Lanxin said with a faint smile, not taking the matter to heart.
Looking at her well-behaved child sitting in her lap, she felt a pang of regret. If she had known earlier that the medicine could improve her child's health, she would have given it to him in her previous life.
“Mom, Abang hasn’t been in a good mood lately. He… his emotions are very volatile.”
"At the company, the reform is going through a difficult time. Even though the company no longer opposes it, it doesn't support it either. Everyone is watching Abang, and he's under a lot of pressure."
Lin Meiling tentatively brought up the matter.
"The path he is about to take is one that no one has ever taken before, so it is naturally difficult. However, he is now grown up and should take responsibility for his choices and stick to them."
"Opening up a path is never easy."
Fang Lanxin had already roughly anticipated the resistance this matter would face. If Huo Qibang couldn't even withstand this much pressure, then he would truly be a useless person.
Huo Qibang was raised by Fang Lanxin herself, and no one knew his abilities better than Fang Lanxin.
How could someone she raised with all her heart and soul be a good-for-nothing?
He will definitely succeed on this path.
“Mom, Abang needs you now.”
"Why don't you move back home?"
Seeing that Fang Lanxin didn't understand what she meant, Lin Meiling had no choice but to tell the truth.
However, Fang Lanxin shook her head directly: "You already have children and should have your own independent space. I have handed over the Huo Group to Huo Qibang, and I believe he can do a good job. I have handed over the Huo family to you, and I also believe you can do a good job. As for myself, I have retired."
retire?
Lin Meiling was stunned when she heard those two words. She had considered many possibilities, but she never expected that everything Fang Lanxin had done was for retirement.
"Mom, you've built the Huo Group from scratch, are you really willing to give it up?" Lin Meiling looked at Fang Lanxin in disbelief and blurted out her true feelings.
Fang Lanxin took a deep breath and suddenly smiled.
In her previous life, she had already experienced the consequences of being reluctant to let go, so in this life, there is nothing she is reluctant to let go of.
"Even birds leave the nest when they grow up, let alone humans?"
