Jiang Mingxin spoke lightly.
However, Li Han's legs went weak when he heard this.
The Li family didn't know how he and Zhou Suyun went to Shenzhen, how they opened the store, and how they made Hongshengmin Restaurant successful, but he knew it all.
To his family, he told them that he had built his business from scratch.
But will starting from scratch guarantee success?
Even if Jiang Mingxin wanted to buy stocks or open a hotel, he would first have to accumulate a large amount of starting capital.
Without money, you will miss out on even the best opportunities.
For example, the first bull market in Shanghai Stock Exchange has caused regrets to many people in later generations.
Li Han knew his own strengths and weaknesses. Without Sister Hong's management and Jiang Mingxin's marketing plan, he could only support a small restaurant at best and would not be able to develop it at all.
In his eyes, Jiang Mingxin has grown from a smart little girl to the big boss she is today.
If she wants to clean herself up, isn't it just a matter of a word?
Seeing him about to cry again, Sister Hong taunted him with disgust, "You were living a peaceful life, but you had to make trouble. Now that you've got what you wanted, you want to regret it? Li Han, there aren't that many advantages in the world for you to take advantage of."
Li Han knew that she was unwilling to plead for him, so he could only privately warn his parents and brother and sister-in-law, hoping that they would not say anything careless when they arrived at the restaurant.
But he refused to tell them Jiang Mingxin's true identity, leaving them confused.
Li's mother was short-sighted. She thought that Li Han's backer was going to invite them to dinner, so she spent most of the day at home dressing up. For the first time, she wore new clothes and gold earrings, and even took out the bracelet she had kept in the bottom of the box.
It is said that it is the Hetian jade passed down from the ancestors of the Li family.
Holding the arm of his eldest daughter-in-law, he walked into the box with a smile on his face.
Jiang Mingxin arrived early and had already discussed the matter with Sister Hong and read the complaint drafted by her lawyer.
He was holding a glass of milk and drinking it, leaving a circle of milky white marks on his lips.
Xing Haodong was not around, and she was too lazy to lick it herself, so she just picked up a tissue and wiped it off.
"Brother Han is here, please ask your parents and brother and sister-in-law to sit down."
She pointed to the seat next to her with a faint look in her eyes, and stayed firmly in the main seat, with no intention of getting up.
Li's mother immediately frowned and pinched Li Han, "Why is she here? I accidentally bumped into her shoulder the night before, and she and her man just kept coming after me. They're so unreasonable!"
"Could it be that she has some relationship with your backer?"
When Li Han heard this, he felt dizzy.
It would have been fine if it was just him and Sister Hong getting a divorce, but he didn't expect that his mother had also offended Jiang Mingxin.
This is the person Xing Haodong loves most. His mother is so good at getting into trouble!
Li Han hurried forward and poured himself three glasses of wine without saying a word.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm so sorry. My mother was blind and offended you. I apologize to you on her behalf!"
He raised his head and drank the wine.
Jiang Mingxin let out a light laugh: "Oh, I don't deserve that. Brother Han is the owner of this Hongsheng Restaurant. How can I ask you to apologize to me?"
She was speaking sarcastically, but Li's mother didn't understand and picked up Qiao.
"Humph, you know my son is the boss here. Today is the day our distinguished guests are treating our family to dinner. What are you doing sitting here? Hurry up and get up!"
Li Han's face turned pale instantly.
Furious, he scolded in a low voice: "Mom, shut up! Can't you see there's no one else here? Mr. Jiang is my benefactor!"
Mother Li stood there in a daze.
"This, this... How is this possible? Son, you are not kidding, right?"
Jiang Mingxin raised the corner of his lips and knocked on the table. "He told so many lies before, and you believed them all. Why don't you believe him now that he's telling the truth?"
"What are you standing there for? Sit down. I have two things to explain to you today. I hope none of you will interrupt me before I finish."
Li Han nodded hurriedly: "Okay, Mr. Jiang, you decide."
Jiang Mingxin pushed a labor contract in front of him. "This is the contract I signed with you last time. I hired you as the lobby manager of Hongsheng Restaurant for two years, and it expires next month."
"If I terminate the contract early, it would be considered a violation, and I should compensate you with three months' salary. However, you allowed your family to spread rumors, causing great damage to the company's reputation. Now that the rumors remain unresolved, I'll deduct three months' salary from you as punishment. Is that not excessive?"
Li Han broke out in a cold sweat.
"No, not too much."
Jiang Mingxin opened his mouth to continue speaking when Li's mother stood up excitedly.
"Even if you are my son's benefactor, it's my son who works so hard. Why do you want to deduct his salary? Isn't this big restaurant his? He is the boss, you..."
"Mom, stop talking!" Li Han blushed with embarrassment. He felt extremely ashamed in front of Jiang Mingxin.
"Why don't you understand? The restaurant isn't mine, it's Boss Jiang's! Hongshengmin Restaurant is also her personal property. Ah Hong and I are just working for her!"
After hearing this, Li's mother was completely stunned.
She looked at Li Han with confusion in her eyes, unable to believe that the big restaurant she had bought was gone just like that.
"Didn't you say... that you own this restaurant and opened it?"
Jiang Mingxin sneered, "He was bragging, and as a mother, you didn't see it at all. If this restaurant really belonged to him, why would he be begging Sister Hong not to divorce him?"
"If it weren't for Sister Hong, would he have been able to rise to prominence so quickly these past few years? Not only does he not appreciate his wife's hard work, he's also secretly taking all the credit for her achievements! He even lets his family go around badmouthing her, calling her a hen that won't lay eggs!"
"Li Han, Sister Hong would have kicked you out long ago if she wanted to have a baby. Why did you wait until now? Why didn't you tell them the results of last year's physical examination?"
boom!
Li Han collapsed to the ground.
His lips were trembling and he couldn't utter a single word.
Li's mother anxiously grabbed his collar and pulled hard, "Tell me, what on earth is going on?"
Jiang Mingxin tore off his last piece of fig leaf and really didn't intend to show any mercy.
How can he live his life in the future?
As soon as Jiang Mingxin saw Li Han's expression, he knew that he hated him, but he was not afraid at all.
"You've done this yourself, and you still have the nerve to blame others? Either you obediently divorce Sister Hong, or wait for me to settle accounts with you one by one, and see what you'll get in the end!"
"You may not know what methods I have, but you know what happened to those who opposed me in the past."
Her tone was soft, yet chilling.
Mother Li looked at her son who was trembling like a sieve, and then she realized that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended. She fell back on the chair with a look of panic on her face.
Look left and right, trying to find a backbone.
But Mr. Li and her other two sons usually only dare to act arrogantly at home. When they go out, they are complete cowards.
Faced with the imposing Jiang Mingxin, he didn't even dare to fart.
