Louis's face shone with a unique confidence that made old Louis momentarily dazed.
Once upon a time, a bright and beautiful young girl stood confidently before me.
He vowed that he would become someone who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him!
But what happened next?
This sincere friendship ultimately vanished in the face of adversity!
The more this child grows up, the more he resembles his mother's innocence!
Louis didn't care about the complicated expression in his father's eyes. What he wanted was his father's approval. Once he got approval, his father would give him more power, and then he would have a better chance of winning than his other brothers!
After an unknown amount of time, old Louis sighed, "You..."
From the moment Louis lost his fertility, he was no longer within the scope of heirs!
In the past, Old Louis would have firmly advised him not to waste his time.
After all, a disabled heir is far inferior to several other capable, resourceful, and relatively perfect heirs!
But at this moment, looking at the light gleaming on Louis's face, old Louis found it difficult to speak.
He swallowed the words that were about to come out. Well, maybe if he hit a wall, he would realize that position was not something he could ever dream of!
But then I thought about it again. The other markets were both dangerous and opportunity-filled. The profits in China were very low. I just treated it as a small business to earn some pocket money for my child.
Having figured this out, old Louis stopped worrying and leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes to rest.
Seeing his father's expression, Louis wisely kept quiet.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and he could easily see through his father's hesitation.
Now what are you pretending to be for, this supposedly loving father and filial son?
Isn't this situation entirely the result of the father's actions?!
He's trying to cultivate the perfect successor by raising wolves, so don't blame them for being cold-blooded and ruthless!
Old Louis didn't know that it was his momentary soft-heartedness that led Louis down that bloodthirsty path, allowing him to secure his position as heir through ruthless means.
Having received Louis's approval, Lu Zhiye immediately went to find Wen Sihe.
It seems that Louise has entrusted this matter entirely to him, and no matter how things unfold, all he cares about is the child's safety!
Pushing open the gate to the courtyard, I saw two men standing side by side admiring the plum blossoms in the corner of the wall!
Hearing the noise at the door, the two turned around at the same time. When Lu Zhiye saw the face of one of the men, he was also a little surprised.
Goodness, although from their perspective these foreigners all look pretty much the same, the man in front of them looks remarkably like Louis?
Wen Sihe, who was sitting in a recliner under the eaves, quickly sat up when she saw her husband return.
With a beaming smile, she explained to both parties, "Senior Mei, Mr. Su, this is my lover, Lu Zhiye!"
Looking at the young man before her, Mei Wangshu sincerely praised them, saying that the two were truly a perfect match!
He smiled and extended his hand to Lu Zhiye: "Lu, I've heard so much about you!"
Lu Zhiye smiled and extended his broad palm: "Hello, Senior Mei!"
The group got up and walked into the house. Lu Zhiye stopped beating around the bush and said directly to them, "What do you think of my wife's suggestion, Senior Mei?"
Mei Wangshu and Qu Siqi exchanged a glance, then Mei Wangshu said in a low voice, "Does that woman really agree?"
I think we should listen to the women's opinions before we agree!
After all, our marriage will definitely exist in name only from now on.
In addition, I have another request. My father is a man who values his reputation the most. During the duration of our marriage, no matter what happens to our marriage, I hope that she will not spread any rumors.
This is not only for the sake of both companies' reputation, but also for the long-term sustainability of this partnership!
What do you think?
Although, from Mei Wangshu's perspective, that woman was a pitiful person, deceived by the foreigner, resulting in her being pregnant alone at a young age!
But isn't it all self-inflicted?
If she doesn't want to, who can force her?
Mei Wangshu did not have a good impression of this kind of woman.
He felt it was best to clarify everything before proceeding with the collaboration!
Wen Sihe thought about it and felt that Mei Wangshu's words made sense: "How about we ask Comrade Tan to come over in the next couple of days?"
Wen Sihe looked at Lu Zhiye and said softly.
Lu Zhiye nodded in agreement: "Of course!"
However, I also have something I'd like to ask Comrade Mei.
In this marriage that exists in name only, are you able to play the role of a father well?
After all, the child is innocent, and I don't want him to live in a cold family!
Even if it's just for that $5,000, I have to at least pretend to be a father!
Lu Zhiye said this without a trace of emotion.
Mei Wangshu stood up abruptly, his voice tinged with astonishment: "What, $5,000?"
Wen Sihe quickly tugged at Lu Zhiye's sleeve and lowered her voice, saying, "I didn't know the situation on your side before, so I only told you the general situation of Comrade Tan, and didn't mention anything else."
Lu Zhiye was astonished. So, Mei Wangshu hadn't known she was rich before?
In this situation, his attitude had become quite relaxed. He was almost ready to agree after seeing the woman's attitude. It seems that Professor Mei was urging him quite hard!
