Chapter 165 Raising a Child Together
"That's good. Now that he's chasing you home, I see you don't reject him. Are you planning to... marry him?"
Chen Zheng's tone was extremely soft, so soft that if one didn't pay attention, one wouldn't be able to hear the urgent question underneath his words.
marry?
Jiang Qianxun didn't even think about it and shook his head: "No."
Submitting to Xing Mingyu was just one of her ways to keep custody of her child. She had long seen through the man's character, and she thought that she would never get married in her life.
As long as I have money, friends and children, that's enough.
Chen Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but the sadness and gloom between his brows had not yet dissipated.
"But the fact is, you still have to keep in touch because of the child. Xun, you know that humans are emotional animals. If you have more contact or spend more time together, it is inevitable that you will develop feelings. Since you don't want to marry him, I think you should keep a good distance from him. This will be good for everyone."
Chen Zheng put one hand in his trouser pocket, looked at her with clear eyes, and calmly analyzed the pros and cons of frequent contact between men and women.
"After all, the child's father is from a high-class family. You are pregnant with his child, but he can't even give you a name. No matter what the reason is, it at least shows that it is difficult for you to have a future. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Jiang Qianxun immediately thought of what Xing Mingyu had mentioned to her when they left for Huai County: Mr. Xing had forced people into the company. She nodded silently.
"Second, do you remember your father? The head of an ordinary wealthy family played so many tricks. Can you guarantee that your child's father will never become that kind of person? Insatiable desire is a common problem among human beings."
Hearing this, Jiang Qianxun's eyes flashed back to the woman's hair of unknown origin on Xing Mingyu's body, and it was hard for her not to agree.
She doesn't want to become a suspicious woman who is always worried about her husband's infidelity.
Chen Zheng: "So, instead of being sad in the future, it is better to stay sober and keep your distance from the beginning. If you don't want to, you can just refuse his behavior towards you today."
Jiang Qianxun explained: "Today was an accident. He knew I was going to take pictures. He came to protect the baby in his belly. I had contact with him to keep the custody of the child."
As for the conditions for retaining custody, she did not say.
"That's good. I hope my friends are people with correct values and clear understanding of relationships between men and women."
Jiang Qianxun looked a little guilty after hearing this, but she remained calm: "Don't worry, he and I are just working together to raise these two unexpected children. Whether it's work or privately, we are a serious cooperative relationship."
Chen Zheng was completely relieved: "I'm glad you understand. If you really can't avoid contact with him for the sake of the child, you should also be careful about the degree. If you really can't avoid it, you can also talk to me, Xun, I will help you. Whether it's about the Huawen Group or personal matters."
"Okay." Facing an older brother who was like a family member, Jiang Qianxun felt warm in his heart and gave him a warm smile.
Yes, apart from the child, her main purpose of returning to the country was to take Huawen back from Jiang Wenyuan and build up Huawen with her partners. There was no need to put too much energy on a man who came unexpectedly.
After that, the two chatted for a while. Seeing that she had not eaten lunch yet, Chen Zheng left on the pretext of preparing lunch for her.
Hearing Chen Zheng's footsteps coming down the stairs, Jiang Qianxun finally breathed a sigh of relief, pressed the doorknob, and went back to her room.
As soon as she entered the room, suddenly, she saw a tall man in front of her, and a warm big hand grabbed her small body around the waist.
Before she could even scream, the man slammed the door shut. With his other free hand, he protected her stomach and waist, pressed her against the door, and gave her an exceptionally fierce kiss.
His kiss was too heavy, his tongue went into her mouth and began to conquer her.
Jiang Qianxun was kissed so fiercely and violently that she couldn't bear it.
From last night till now, she couldn't remember how many times he had kissed her on the mouth. Every time he kissed her deeply and hard. From the numbness at the beginning to the slight swelling at the end, she was afraid.
He wished he could carry her with him all the time as if she were his own.
But the man's breath was like a painkiller. After the deep kiss, he only had to lighten his force and she would come back to life, immersed in the passion and desire he gave her.
Just like now, she was kissed hard, he eased his strength, and she came alive when she felt his hot breath spraying over her, her little hands pushing his chest weakly.
She was also very ashamed, ashamed that she was not completely indifferent to men.
"Xing Mingyu, what are you crazy about... There are quite a few people in the villa now, and it's lunch time. They may come to see me at any time..."
But the man's body was as hard as a solid wall, and just as expected, she couldn't push him.
Instead, the hand that was grabbing the collar of his shirt was easily caught by him and could not move.
If your hands don’t work, use your legs.
She bent her knees, trying to attack the man's weak spot.
But the man seemed to be able to predict it. He avoided her movements and fixed them in place with his hands, letting her back lean against the door.
Feeling his movements, Jiang Qianxun was about to cry.
"Xing Mingyu, don't go too far."
Xing Mingyu didn't care. He looked at the little woman's bright eyes, which were either confused or frightened, with his scarlet eyes, and kissed her fiercely, starting the second round of plunder. He didn't stop until she became soft like a puddle of water. Then he lowered his head, pressed his forehead against hers, and his heavy breathing and low, hoarse voice rang in the room.
"You and I, are we in a serious relationship?"
He kissed her swollen lips and ears again and again.
"Is this a serious relationship? Hmm?"
He heard her conversation with Chen Zheng, and that's why...
Listening to the man's heavy breathing, she felt ashamed for having cheated on Chen Zheng and having an affair with him, and her whole body turned red like a cooked shrimp...
Xing Mingyu picked her up horizontally, walked to the bedside, lowered his head and said calmly: "Let's be serious and review how you felt so comfortable that you cried, ok?"
Later, Jiang Qianxun had no idea when the man left.
All I know is that when Aunt Lan came up to ask her to go downstairs to eat, she muttered that she was very tired, and then she buried herself in the quilt and fell asleep.
After taking the maternity photos, in the following days, she and Xing Mingyu entered a strange stage that she couldn't explain.
During the day at Xing's, they are in a superior-subordinate relationship and each is busy with their own things.
When they met in the conference room, he didn't make any eye contact with her, as if he was really fulfilling his role as the child's father seriously.
But every time she asked her assistant to ask for leave from the HR department and went back to take care of Chinese matters, Assistant Zhou would personally call her to inform her to go to the top floor.
At first, she thought Xing Mingyu just wanted her to go up and fulfill the agreed task, but every time, apart from talking to her about work, he would at most kiss her until she was soft and remind her to remember the number of times, and he would do nothing else and then let Uncle Song take her home personally.
At work, Xing's workload is not heavy. When she goes back to work, she can occasionally chat with Huang Xiaoxiao about design ideas and food, and watch her and Wei Xianglin gradually get to know each other.
This unchanging life lasted for about two weeks, until Chen Zheng was pleased that they had thoroughly understood the Jiang family's relationships and the projects at hand, she temporarily withdrew from the Xing family and began to pay attention to Huawen, taking the first step to officially take back the Huawen Group.
To conquer cities and territories, people are indispensable. Within Huawen, she already has seven comrades fighting together, but she is still short of two assistants. She can't let Chen Zheng or Uncle Jiang be free labor every time she goes out.
Therefore, the first thing she did before "going out" was to recruit two assistants, a driver and a secretary together with her friends.
The driver's surname is Nie, a local. He is just 40 years old this year. He was a soldier when he was young. After retiring from the army, he drove for the president of a trading company. This year, the company went bankrupt due to poor management, and he has been unemployed at home.
Less than half an hour after Jiang Qianxun posted the recruitment information, he took the initiative to submit his resume.
Jiang Qianxun liked the fact that he had been a soldier, so he hired him.
The secretary submitted her resume at almost the same time as driver Nie. She was 30 years old and had eight years of experience in a headhunting company. Her biggest advantage was that she had no weaknesses. She had served in the army, was young, professional, efficient, and a quiet person.
Like driver Nie, he had no salary requirements because both of them had families and only wanted long-term stability.
When Meng Zixi saw the resumes of these two people, he sighed: "Both of them have good conditions, and they don't even have salary requirements. They were submitted on the same platform. If you don't know, you would think that the two of them have agreed privately to come and serve as free labor for you."
Jiang Qianxun didn’t think there were such good people in the world. There were too many things to do, so he didn’t take them to heart.
Now that she has comrades-in-arms and assistants, she doesn't want to waste any more time waiting.
After agreeing to the two people's employment, she ate the red robe steamed grouper that Uncle Jiang had just made while sending an email to inform the senior management of Huawen:
I will be present at the Chinese Monday morning meeting tomorrow and bring the new members of the design department to officially report for duty.
......
Jiang Wenyuan’s new home.
Jiang Wenyuan was having dinner with his two daughters.
"Snapped!"
Jiang Yinyin used her chopsticks to pick up the food twice, then put down her chopsticks in a lack of interest and turned to complain to Jiang Wenyuan.
"What kind of dishes are these? Are they edible? Dad, our family has fallen to the point where we have to eat domestic beef to fill our stomachs. It tastes terrible!"
In the past, she ate imported beef, air-shipped seafood and bird's nest for every meal!
Things have been going badly lately and Jiang Wenyuan was in a bad mood. It was a rare opportunity for him to have a meal, but his little daughter was picky about it. Jiang Wenyuan's face darkened and he was about to scold her.
"Ding!" The sound of a new email reminder came from the mobile phone.
He thought he had received a reply from his new client, so he quickly opened his phone. However, when he saw the content of the email, he was so angry that he threw the chopsticks in his hand onto the table.
Jiang Yinyin thought her father was angry because she had just lost her temper. She was so scared that just as she was about to apologize, she heard her father announce an explosive piece of news.
"Jiang Qianxun, this rebellious girl! She is really coming back!"
Hearing the three words "Jiang Qianxun", Jiang Yinyin and Su Rourou looked at each other. Su Rourou sat there motionless, and Jiang Yinyin leaned over to ask.
"Dad? What do you mean? Are you saying that she's coming to our house?"
Hearing such a stupid question, Jiang Wenyuan was so angry that he glared at her and started scolding her.
"You idiot! Why is Jiang Qianxun here for no reason? She wants to go back to Huawen and snatch the company from me, your dad!"
"What?" Su Rourou, who had been silent the whole time, gently put down her chopsticks after hearing this, with a gentle indignation written all over her face. "But, why? She is an outsider, and she really wants to snatch away the company that my uncle and mother have worked so hard to run until now?"
When Jiang Yinyin heard this, she became even angrier.
"That's right, Dad! Didn't you say last time that Jiang Qianxun, that bitch, was a bastard who had no blood relationship with you? What's there to be angry about? Take out the evidence and throw it in her face, telling her that she is not a member of the Jiang family. What else can she use to compete with you?"
The more Jiang Yinyin spoke, the smarter she felt, as if she had already seen the scene of Jiang Qianxun being kicked out.
By then, she would definitely be in a worse situation than when she was thrown out of the Jiang family villa!
"Are you out of your mind?" Jiang Wenyuan almost slapped him. "Even if Jiang Qianxun is not a member of the Jiang family, as long as she legally owns the company's shares, she is still Huawen's major shareholder! Besides, when did I ever say that she is not a member of the Jiang family!"
"You said it yourself when I was hurt by that bitch Jiang Qianxun in the hotel last time." Jiang Yinyin was stunned.
"You must have heard it wrong!" Jiang Wenyuan denied it flatly.
Even if he had said that, he didn't want to admit it in front of these two idiots. These two were useless and only made trouble. If such important information as Jiang Qianxun's life experience was leaked by them, no one knew what would happen.
It would be better not to admit it. He wants to hold this handle on himself and deal a fatal blow to Jiang Qianxun at the right time!
"But uncle, you clearly said it yourself." Su Rourou got a little anxious when she heard Jiang Wenyuan deny it. She wanted to know why he denied it.
Ever since Jiang Wenyuan said that last time, she has been waiting for the day when she can come up with enough evidence to pull down the woman who was held in the palm of Xing Mingyu's hand from the clouds.
As long as she is no longer the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, no matter how good Xing Mingyu treats her, she will not be able to enter the Xing family!
What she can’t get, Jiang Qianxun can’t get either!
But Jiang Wenyuan said no again?
"I was so angry that I lost my mind! I just said nonsense! She was born after that bitch Hua Yun was pregnant for ten months. Aunt Lan saw it all. How could such a thing be fake!" Jiang Wenyuan didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore and immediately shifted his attention.
"Instead of worrying about Jiang Qianxun's background, you two should think about how to stop her from returning to the company!"
"She has several Huai County projects under her control. The architectural design of the urgently needed houses that Qin Group is responsible for is enough for her to make a lot of money. This does not include the design of Huai County cinemas and gymnasiums, interior decoration design and property related to the real estate, etc."
When it comes to the resources Jiang Qianxun has, Jiang Wenyuan becomes jealous.
"She is already the largest shareholder of Huawen. If she can come back smoothly and start these projects quickly, she will definitely be able to take the position of chairman by the end of this year! Once the company is in her hands, with her attitude towards you, you will be in trouble!"
After Jiang Wenyuan finished speaking, he knew in his heart that he was powerless to stop Jiang Qianxun from coming back.
Jiang Qianxun has the Qin family and the Xing family behind him, and his network of contacts is extensive. If he acts rashly, he will be courting death!
These two daughters are different.
Although one of them is his biological daughter, she usually does more harm than good. So he hopes that this brainless daughter can defeat Jiang Qianxun.
Jiang Qianxun is now pregnant with twins. If things go wrong, there will be three deaths!
Jiang Wenyuan stared at his daughter with a guilty conscience. He had never been so eager to get his daughter into trouble. Anyway, if someone kills someone, he must pay with his life. Whoever kills someone will be held responsible. In this era, there is no such thing as killing all the clan members.
Jiang Yinyin couldn't eat anymore. She heard that Jiang Qianxun was so powerful that even her father was afraid of him. She was envious and jealous.
"This bitch, she has the same father, how can she be so powerful! But we can't beat her, we can't run to the door to stop her tomorrow!"
"Yeah, she's so awesome..." Su Rourou also whispered, poking the fish in the bowl with the chopsticks in her hand.
Even her half-sister praised Jiang Qianxun for being so capable, which made Jiang Yinyin so angry that she almost died.
Su Rourou's eyes were indifferent, she lowered her head and said softly, "We are all family, but she did such a thing. She refused to let the Jiang family live in the villa, and sent my mother to jail. Now she is trying to rob my uncle's company. If killing people is not against the law... I really want to fight her to the death for my uncle and sister."
"Even if it's not a life-and-death battle, I will blackmail her. We are all surnamed Jiang, why should she enjoy the good life while my uncle and sister have to stay here in fear all the time, thinking that everything they have worked so hard for might be taken away..."
Jiang Yinyin felt that every word said by this half-sister touched her heart. She kept nodding her head. She caught the meaning of a certain word in Su Rourou's words, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind!
