Chapter 170 Wang Baomin's Story 2
"Are you too idle these days? Baomin, how long has it been since our company's finance department checked the accounts?" Tao Ying looked at Wang Chunni with a serious expression.
"Mom, it seems like it's been two years. Our company is expanding quite rapidly now, and I'm not sure if there are any bad debts or anything like that," Wang Baomin immediately understood and quickly said.
"Chunni, since you don't have anything to do right now, you can leave Xixi at my place. You can start going to the company to check the accounts tomorrow, and hand in the reports to me once everything is settled," Tao Ying instructed Wang Chunni.
"Mom, I haven't worked for three years, otherwise..." Wang Chunni was numb. The company now is not the same as it was a few years ago, and it hasn't been in the accounting department for many years. It would take at least three months to figure it out.
“We’re all at work, how can you be the only one enjoying yourself? That won’t do. A family should be together. If I don’t see you at the company tomorrow, I’ll cut off your money. If the accounts are unclear, I’ll take back your shares.” Tao Ying’s expression turned serious.
"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll go to the company tomorrow." Wang Chunni was almost crying.
"I'll find you a job after we finish the accounting." Tao Ying had no intention of letting Wang Chunni off so easily.
Wang Chunni was completely speechless.
He hurriedly slunk home, without even taking Yang Chenxi with him.
"Mom, you really have a way with things." After Wang Chunni left, Wang Baomin looked at Tao Ying with a smile on his face.
"Mom is very open-minded. If I weren't getting old, and I still had you all, plus your Uncle Jiang who's been relentlessly pursuing me, I might have had a few relationships by now," Tao Ying said, trying to sound casual.
"Mom, I'll call Uncle Jiang right now." Wang Baomin was shocked. Was this an encouragement for him to date more girlfriends?
"No, no, no, you silly child, whose side are you on? I'm your own mother. You're a good child in every way, except you're too responsible and value your family too much. You're always thinking about finding a girl who can be good to your family to spend your life with, instead of looking at feelings and character first. Every good girl you meet says she'll marry you to take care of your family." Tao Ying couldn't help but laugh and tease Wang Baomin.
This kid has gone too far; now he sees everyone as someone who's after his money.
Wang Baomin: "..."
“Baomin, our family is different now. You can go out and date freely, and enjoy life,” Tao Ying gently advised.
"Mom, I have a party tonight, I have to go now." Wang Baomin didn't want to talk to Tao Ying anymore, afraid that his mother would expose his little secret.
Tao Ying sighed. Wang Baomin disliked cocktail parties the most.
Although you can meet a lot of people at a party, it's also the most chaotic time.
There are too many people who get rich overnight, but few who have accumulated wealth over time. Most people who lack substance come up with all sorts of tricks.
Many young girls suffered terribly as a result.
Tao Ying also dislikes these things, but they are unavoidable.
We can't manage it, and we can't control it all.
Tao Ying is at home with her children.
Wang Baomin went to the party alone.
Wang Baomin has long since established himself in Shanghai.
With the Jiang family as his backing, no one dared to provoke Wang Baomin. Coupled with his outstanding business acumen, Wang Baomin was someone most people looked up to.
However, there was also jealousy and some unpleasant words. But Wang Baomin rarely got into direct arguments with others. Instead, he would turn around and start winning over his opponents in the business world.
"Baomin, you're really hard to get a hold of." As soon as Wang Baomin arrived, a bloated, fat CEO came over to greet him.
It was called a cocktail party, but it was actually a nightclub, filled with pretty young girls.
Every boss has two young women by his side, wearing heavy makeup, revealing clothes, and with exceptionally good figures.
Everyone is very generous and open.
Among a group of fat, bald, and short bosses, Wang Baomin stood out like a ray of light, a dazzling light. As soon as he entered, all the young girls looked at him.
Especially after Wang Baomin came in, everyone stood up.
What does this prove? It proves that Wang Baomin is more capable than the people here.
If you had to choose between a top-tier, handsome, fit, and young CEO, who would you pick?
It's a transaction of money and sex anyway, so who wouldn't want the other person to be a better one?
However, the girl who already had someone didn't dare to come over, while the two girls who were just angry about not being able to grab it instantly lit up.
Wang Baomin sat directly on the single sofa and refused the two girls who wanted to come over.
He picked up his wine glass and drank a couple of glasses with the others, trying his best to suppress his discomfort as he listened to their lewd remarks.
After staying for more than an hour, under the influence of alcohol, some people became increasingly bold. Suppressing his discomfort, Wang Baomin left.
As soon as I reached the door, a little girl jumped into my arms.
"Zhou Tian, don't be so stubborn. Your family is bankrupt. Do you still think you're the same young lady of the Xia family? Now that the second young master of the Xia family has taken a liking to you, you should be grateful. Otherwise, your mother will be waiting to die in the hospital." A scantily clad girl stared at the girl with eyes like knives.
Wang Baomin glanced at the girl in his arms. She was in her early twenties, very pretty, and clean-cut. She must have been given a lot of alcohol, as her collar was torn open, revealing the white bra strap underneath.
"Do you need help?" Wang Baomin tightened his grip to prevent the little girl from falling.
"Go find Young Master Xia quickly," a girl whispered to the person next to her.
Zhou Tian's mind was no longer clear. She looked up at Wang Baomin. Zhou Tian knew Wang Baomin; she had come to him for help.
He thought that Xia Tian would help him out of consideration for their childhood friendship, but he never expected to receive only humiliation.
Zhou Tian was unwilling to sell her body for money.
My father is gone. My mother loved me so much. She wouldn't be able to bear knowing that her medical expenses came at the cost of her own health.
Zhou Tian wanted to die a clean death.
However, it's difficult to die cleanly once you're inside. Fortunately, when I came in, I saw Wang Baomin enter this private room.
"Help, help me!" Zhou Tian clung tightly to Wang Baomin's sleeve.
"Oh, who do we have here? It's just the Jiang family's burden." After Xia Tian came out, she saw Zhou Tian rushing into Wang Baomin's arms, and a surge of anger instantly rose in her heart.
Xia Tian pursued Zhou Tian for three years, but Zhou Tian never even glanced at Xia Tian once.
Xia Tian thought that with the Zhou family's downfall, she could finally get what she wanted, but Zhou Tian remained aloof and arrogant, so she decided to destroy Zhou Tian.
He made Zhou Tian kneel at his feet like a lump of mud.
But just when things were about to succeed, a piece of rotten garlic appeared.
Normally, in the summer, he might not have clashed with Wang Baomin, but today he was drunk, and with the flattery of those around him and the prospect of getting Zhou Tian, he couldn't help but feel a bit tipsy. He suddenly felt that Wang Baomin was just a burden brought back by that old lady from the Jiang family, and nothing special.
Wang Baomin glanced at Xia Tian, who should be Xia Wenjing's second son.
There was quite a commotion at the door. A boss came out of the house and, upon seeing that it was Xia Tian, immediately felt a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Wang, I'll head back now." Wang Baomin noticed Mr. Wang's evasiveness.
He didn't intend to make things difficult for the other party. Although the Xia family was not as powerful as the Jiang family now, in everyone's eyes, the other party was, after all, the Xia family's grandson, while he was Uncle Jiang's stepson.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wang immediately ran back to the private room, since these were people he couldn't afford to offend.
After saying that, Wang Baomin put his arm around Zhou Tian and was about to leave.
"Damn it, Wang Baomin, you stop right there! Zhou Tian is the one I've got my eye on!" Xia Tian was completely enraged and grabbed a beer bottle from the side, smashing it at Wang Baomin.
He couldn't endure the hardships of training in the summer, so his skills weren't particularly good.
Wang Baomin is a self-taught martial artist who has learned a wide variety of skills, most of which are practical combat skills.
So if it really came down to a fight, Wang Baomin would have a slight advantage. However, since Wang Baomin was holding Zhou Tian in his arms, he seemed a bit restrained.
When the others shouted out "Jiang family's burden" in the summer, they knew who Wang Baomin was, and no one dared to step forward to help.
After all, no one can afford to offend the Xia family and the Jiang family.
Fortunately, those who can afford to run a club are not nobody, and people came immediately.
It ushered in a summer of impotent rage.
Wang Baomin carried Zhou Tian away.
Wang Baomin was driving, but he had been drinking and obviously couldn't drive, so he called a car to take him back.
Instead of going back to Tao Ying's house, he went to the large apartment that Tao Ying had bought for him.
This apartment is 150 square meters. Wang Baomin rarely stays here; it's usually the housekeeper who comes to tidy up the place.
"Go wash up." Wang Baomin brought Zhou Tian new toiletries and a set of pajamas that he hadn't worn before.
“There are no women’s clothes at home. I’ll go back to my mom’s tomorrow and get some for you,” Wang Baomin explained.
"Thank you!" Zhou Tian said, her eyes red as she took the clothes.
Zhou Tian didn't know what else to say besides "thank you".
Wang Baomin led Zhou Tian into the room, took out his first-aid kit, and applied safflower oil to her shoulder.
The next day, when Wang Baomin got up for his morning exercise, Zhou Tian was still asleep.
I went to Tao Ying's house to get the new clothes, and then bought breakfast.
When Zhou Tian woke up in the morning, she was a little uneasy because she didn't see Wang Baomin and her clothes were no longer wearable.
Wearing Wang Baomin's clothes was too big, and she wasn't wearing underwear, which made her feel particularly insecure.
Zhou Tian had already made up her mind that if Wang Baomin wanted to do *that* with her, she would accept it, but she just wanted to disgust Xia Tian.
I have nothing now, except for my body, which is still of some value to some people.
Wang Baomin came in from outside and made eye contact with Zhou Tian.
"Mr. Wang, thank you." Zhou Tian thanked Wang Baomin somewhat reservedly.
“These are from my mom, they’re all new, go and change into them.” Wang Baomin handed the bag to Zhou Tian.
Wang Baomin gave Zhou Tian a very comprehensive selection.
And they were all wearing casual clothes.
Zhou Tian came out quickly; her clothes fit her perfectly, making her look especially youthful.
"Mr. Wang!" Zhou Tian came out and looked at Wang Baomin with a somewhat polite expression.
“After your uncle was placed under investigation, your father got into a car accident, your mother was diagnosed with cancer, and your older cousin was sent abroad. In just one month, your family lost everything.” Wang Baomin investigated Zhou Tian last night.
Zhou Tian's older cousin, Zhou Hao, whom Wang Baomin had met, was a very intelligent but somewhat aloof person.
They have the ability and the skills.
Zhou Tian, the little princess of the Zhou family, is not spoiled.
She's only twenty years old, but now that she's lost her protection, she's probably in some danger.
"Mr. Wang, I came to you specifically yesterday for help. I'm sorry I took advantage of you," Zhou Tian said nervously, fidgeting with her hands.
"You can leave after you've eaten," Wang Baomin said, not angry.
“Mr. Wang, I know you’re not married yet. Can you…can you take care of me? I’ll be very obedient. If…if you have someone you like, I’ll leave immediately…” Zhou Tian mustered her courage and looked at Wang Baomin as she spoke.
Wang Baomin “…”
“You don’t need to do this. I can lend you the money for your mother’s medical treatment first, and you can pay me back when you are able to.” Wang Baomin stammered.
This girl is so bold.
"No, I'm not capable of protecting my mother, nor am I capable of protecting myself. I have nothing to offer," Zhou Tian said nervously.
“Your older brother should be coming back,” Wang Baomin said softly, recalling Zhou Hao’s smiling face when he mentioned Zhou Tian.
“I…” Zhou Tian’s tears flowed down her cheeks.
Zhou Tian was afraid she wouldn't be able to wait for her older brother to return.
Nowadays, it's not just summer who's eyeing me; even my own relatives are trying to sell me off.
Rather than letting someone else take the benefits, it's better to find a buyer yourself.
"Don't cry." Wang Baomin really didn't know what to do with such a grown girl.
Wang Chuntao never cries, while Tao Chenyang, trained by Uncle Jiang, is a tough woman.
"I won't trouble you any further." Zhou Tian knew that she herself was a burden, and that it was a bit unreasonable of her to ask such a question.
He was about to leave when he said that.
"You can stay here for now." Wang Baomin felt a pang of pity as he looked at the little girl's tears.
"No need, it wouldn't be good to cause you any trouble." Zhou Tian wiped away her tears.
"You haven't had breakfast yet," Wang Baomin said as Zhou Tian was about to leave.
"No…"
Just as Zhou Tian was about to speak, the doorbell rang.
Zhou Tian looked at Wang Baomin, somewhat at a loss, unsure whether she should open the door.
Wang Baomin walked over with a sigh and opened the door. Seeing the familiar face outside, he was a little confused and asked, "Mom?"
Upon hearing Wang Baomin's words, Zhou Tian immediately hid behind him, but then felt it was impolite and quickly stepped forward again.
"Hello, Auntie." Zhou Tian greeted Tao Ying politely.
"Wang Baomin, what's going on? Don't tell me this is a misunderstanding." Tao Ying looked at Wang Baomin with a stern face.
“Mom, she’s the youngest daughter of the Zhou family…” Wang Baomin felt a chill run down his spine.
For a moment, I didn't know how to explain it.
"Auntie, Mr. Wang saved me yesterday," Zhou Tian quickly explained when she saw Tao Ying was angry.
After hearing Zhou Tian's explanation, Tao Ying wondered, "..." why Wang Baomin always liked to bring women home.
"Auntie, don't worry, I won't bother Mr. Wang," Zhou Tian quickly assured him.
Tao Ying glanced at Wang Baomin and gave him a look.
Wang Baomin immediately went into the room and took out a wad of cash.
