Don’t be a licking dog when you are reborn.

Chapter 264: Falling for the Speaker's Tale (2 in 1)

Lujiazui.

It was monsoon and warm so we stayed on the top floor that night.

To be honest, Wen Nuan has never lived in a house like this. The top floor of Lujiazui, a luxurious flat floor, is basically the king of the building.

She had never thought about it before, and even now she felt it was a little unreal.

She did have the idea of ​​buying a house, but her idea was always to buy an ordinary house.

As long as you can live with Monsoon, it doesn't need to be too luxurious or expensive.

But now that Ji Feng has bought everything, even though she is still a little dizzy, she has to face reality.

So much so that when Ji Feng picked her up, took off her clothes and dragged her into the bathroom, she was as confused as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"Stop talking and take a shower first..."

The bathroom here is very big, you can take a sitz bath or even swim 2 meters.

It's a pity that Wen Nuan doesn't seem to have the idea of ​​​​taking a mandarin duck bath with the monsoon.

She squatted in the bathtub, buried her chin into her knees, and covered her head with a towel. Only her eyes and nose were above the water.

Staring at Ji Feng, there was something evil in his eyes.

She and Ji Feng were sitting across from each other in the bathtub. She would leave as soon as Ji Feng came. In short, they were sitting diagonally. She had no intention of cooperating with Ji Feng and playing the game of loving each other as a family.

This made Boss Ji, who was so thoughtful, a little embarrassed.

Wen Nuan is awake now and is no longer dizzy, because Ji Feng said just now that this house was bought for her, which made the autistic girl even more nervous:
"Ji Feng, how much did it cost to buy this place?"

"More than ten million."

Nuan Nuan twitched the corner of his mouth, pulled the towel off his head, rolled it into a ball, and threw it towards Ji Feng.

Pfft!

"It's a big move, Bunny is exposed!"

Hearing Ji Feng's whisper, Wen Nuan couldn't hold back anymore. The autistic girl became a little angry and immediately started to splash water on Ji Feng:

"I'm talking to you!"

"say what?"

"Do you think my math is the same as yours? Please tell me in detail."

Ji Feng:……

Do you look down on my math so much? Didn’t you teach me math?
"There are more than 2000 left."

"Ten million, more than 2000 million, so that's more than 3000 million? Your way of saving is really strange."

"You can't rely on me for this. I learned it all from the country."

Ji Feng muttered and moved his body a little further, but was avoided by the warmth again.

Boss Ji had no choice but to suddenly have an idea and start frantically foaming the bathtub.

Soon the water was filled with foam.

Mr. Ji suddenly took a deep dive, slipped into the water, and then slid over like a torpedo.

Boom! ~
Hit, soft.

Ji Feng pretended to be confused and rose from Nuan Nuan's arms. Fortunately, Nuan Nuan didn't hide away this time, but just looked at him dully.

I held my mouth shut for a few times, but finally couldn't hold it back and was still amused by him.

"Ji Feng, you don't have to do this."

"What kind of thing is not needed?"

"I am already rich myself, and I know how much assets I have at my fingertips. I really don't need any material security now..."

Ji Feng scratched his head. In fact, he did have some inertia in his thinking, mainly caused by the little fairies of later generations.

OK, the little fairy has all the blame for this matter.

"Warmth, actually, it's not what you think. Although housing prices in Shanghai are very high now, they haven't reached their highest point yet.

When did my vision ever get worse? I think the current property market will continue to rise in a few years. If you buy now, you will make a lot of money later! "

Monsoon's vision?
It's a bit of a pun.

Hearing him say that housing prices will continue to skyrocket, Wen Nuan reluctantly agreed:

"If it is a wedding room, the names of two people should be written. There is no need to include my name."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Is there anything else?"

"Don't pinch me yet."

"Okay, no pinching, what else?"

"Don't touch either."

"it is good."

"You liar, I'll kill you!"

The two of them leaned in the bathtub and talked about their future, how they would get married in the future, and what their future wedding room would look like.

This place must be renovated. Although it is a pity, the current style is too classic and Ji Feng doesn't like it.

Nuan Nuan disagreed at first.

But under Ji Feng's persuasive tongue, he finally fell completely.

From the very beginning, no, we can no longer spend money randomly.

In the end, it became "I listen to my husband."

So, as far as the future was concerned, they discussed it seriously all night until they were exhausted.

……

Morning at the Imperial Capital Cemetery.

Aha! ~
Mu Wanqiu stretched out her arms lazily and let out a very long yawn.

"Mom, you told me when I was little that when I yawned, I thought someone was thinking about me. Later I found out that it was not my father or my mother, but me when I grew up.

The past days were so good..."

Mu Wanqiu's eyelids were heavy and the dark circles were obvious.

She had had so little sleep recently that she looked very tired after she used to pamper herself and take beauty sleep every day.

However, it's all worth it.

Dealing with the Mu family's affairs was much easier than she thought.

Mainly because after she started doing it, she realized that Shen Ling left her far more than she imagined.

Previously, Mu Wanqiu felt that the total assets of the second house owned by herself and Mu Kui were only 2 million, and if it was sold urgently, it might be less than 2 million.

But Shen Ling said they had 3 million.

It's because she can really raise 3 million.

Before she left, she had already mortgaged her assets in Mu's Imaging, which was a 10-year commercial loan.

Then he sold the car and mortgaged the house.

Only the flat floor in Dongyuan was left for Mu Wanqiu, as a reminder that it was also a private place for the two of them.

From stocks, her own savings over the years, and real estate, Shen Ling actually managed to collect more than 1 million.

Although the interest on these mortgage loans is as high as 7.7%, this 7.7% interest is nothing compared to the time she can buy.

With cooperation at your fingertips, you don’t need even one year, so why 1 years?
With this 3 million as basic funds, many things become simpler.

For example, repurchase shares of Mu Imaging.

First of all, the Mu family itself owns 41% of the shares, plus Shen Ling's own 2%, the total is 43%.

As long as Mu Wanqiu buys back 8% of the shareholders of the dilapidated company, he can completely control the company.

But Shen Ling’s intention was not to end there, but to continue…

If there is sufficient liquidity, let Mu Wanqiu repurchase as many Mu Imaging shares as possible.

Although Shen Ling does not have the foresight of the times like Ji Feng.

She is also optimistic about the arrival of the 4G era. In her future blueprint, the popularization of 4G will definitely be accompanied by the arrival of the big IP era.

As a giant in the traditional imaging industry, Mushi Imaging holds too many overseas IP distribution and usage rights.

These things are worthless now because there are so many pirated copies.

But in the future, it will definitely have huge value.

Buy back as many shares of Mu's Imaging as possible. In the future, Mu Wanqiu can just sit back and collect money from IP copyrights.

In this way, even if the Mu family breaks up with Zhijian Future one day, it will only be affected and will not decline completely.

Similarly, Mu Wanqiu can still live a worry-free life.

These are the limits of what a mother can conceive and consider for her daughter.

"The people in these companies really bully the weak and fear the strong. The workplace environment is completely different from school..."

In the two letters left by Shen Ling, the issue of whether some company members should stay or leave was mentioned.

Shen Ling left behind a lot of company secrets.

It is enough to control many people, and the message to Mu Wanqiu can be left or kept.

According to Mu Wanqiu's original personality, she would definitely seek stability and retain people at a time like this, but this time was different. She did not try to retain additional personnel.

Instead, as Shen Ling had suggested, he conducted a thorough cleansing of the Mu family images.

The final result also surprised Mu Wanqiu.

Even with a 65% layoff, the company's operations were hardly affected.

Of course, there is no significant improvement in efficiency.

But the problem is, after laying off almost two-thirds of the employees, there was almost no impact on efficiency. What the hell is this?

Are these 65% of people just eating and doing nothing?
It was at this moment that Mu Wanqiu understood how bloated the personnel structure of a large company would become after operating for a long time.

Her emotions became increasingly cold as layoffs continued.

The butt determines the head, which is a very classic saying.

Only after Mu Wanqiu herself took on the leadership position did she gradually understand some things.

Why do female executives like Shen Ling and Wen Nuan always have cold faces when they are in the company?

Because of majesty.

Women are naturally physically weak, so they need some extra means to maintain their dignity.

Being cold and indifferent is the best disguise and outer garment for female professionals in the workplace. Mu Wanqiu has gradually gotten used to this feeling during this period of time.

Mu Wanqiu leaned on Shen Ling's tombstone, dozing off half awake and half asleep.

Until dawn...

until……

Someone poked her shoulder.

Mu Wanqiu frowned, woke up from her sleep and looked at the person in front of her.

"Brother Chaoyang?"

"You actually did it after sleeping in a cemetery for a night. You're really brave." Jiang Chaoyang was wearing a black suit and holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He must have come to pay his respects.

Following behind him was Chen Lu. The female secretary was still silent as usual, but her eyes would occasionally linger on Jiang Chaoyang.

Mu Wanqiu stood up and smiled, without responding to this question.

If it were her old self, she would have been too timid to even imagine herself spending a night in a cemetery.

But now...

She even felt that this place would be more reassuring than the Mu family's old house.

"Today doesn't seem to be a particularly important day. How come Brother Chaoyang has time to come and see my mother? You don't think Christmas requires worship, do you?"

Jiang Chaoyang walked to the tombstone, put down his bouquet, and then bowed.

“Today is not an important day, but it’s the 25th. Onmyoji was released at the beginning of the year, so I wanted to go and take a look.

After all, I am one of the investors, and this is the most promising project in the entire Fingertip Game industry, so I need to follow up on it.”

When Jiang Chaoyang mentioned "Onmyoji", Mu Wanqiu was silent for a moment.

"He didn't even inform me about this."

"Don't worry, Ji Feng is a very disciplined person, and with me here, there won't be any problems with dividing the money."

Mu Wanqiu smiled, knowing that Jiang Chaoyang was speaking for Ji Feng.

"I didn't say he wouldn't share the money." Jiang Chaoyang nodded. He knew that there was probably some rift between Ji Feng and Mu Wanqiu.

Maybe they are still steadfast partners, but the innocence they once had has been lost due to certain things.

“You should take care of the Mu family’s affairs in the imperial capital first. It doesn’t look like you can leave given the current situation.

Look how busy you have been recently, you have dark circles under your eyes now."

When Mu Wanqiu heard Jiang Chaoyang say that he had dark circles under his eyes, she immediately took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and hung them directly on the bridge of her nose.

Then he glanced at Chen Lu behind Jiang Chaoyang and changed the subject:

"Yang Hui is getting married. I received the invitation yesterday."

Jiang Chaoyang's expression did not change, but Chen Lu behind him was in a trance for a moment, with a slightly bitter expression.

Mu Wanqiu saw all of this.

But what about Chen Lu's family's child...

From the family's perspective, she behaved unexpectedly well, without crying, making a fuss, or arguing.

Considering the Jiang family's current rapid growth momentum, they don't really need a family alliance. As long as they hold on to this ship, they can fly together.

What Mu Wanqiu can understand now, Jiang Chaoyang naturally understands as well.

He took out his cell phone and waved it in front of Mu Wanqiu:

"Monsoon told me that if I still liked her, I should go find her."

Mu Wanqiu was a little surprised:
"Ji Feng asked you to go find her? Did you go?"

Jiang Chaoyang nodded and gave an ambiguous smile:

"Yes, I went there. They were taking wedding photos in the eastern suburbs that day. They were pretty, so I took one too."

Only then did Mu Wanqiu look at the phone that Jiang Chaoyang handed over.

Yang Hui and a fat middle-aged man are taking wedding photos in a plum blossom forest.

Jiang Chaoyang also took a photo of himself, in which he used his body to cover the groom and took a selfie in the same frame with Yang Hui.

Mu Wanqiu was stunned. Is this what Jiang Chaoyang meant by he also took a photo?
After an awkward moment, she could only make small talk:

"Sister Yang Hui looks good."

Jiang Chaoyang nodded:

"She married a businessman from Hebei. He is really good and a good match. Unfortunately, he is a second marriage and has a baby. Fortunately, it is a girl."

Mu Wanqiu paused and looked at the photo again:
Yang Hui's expression looked very natural and happy. At least she couldn't see anything wrong.

But such a partner, married for the second time with a baby, compared with Jiang Chaoyang...

There is no comparison at all, okay?

"Brother Chaoyang, didn't you try to save the relationship?"

At this time, Jiang Chaoyang suddenly took out a pack of ladies' cigarettes, lit three cigarettes, placed them on Shen Ling's tombstone, and then lit one for himself.

"Mu Wanqiu, not everyone is as lucky as you. Children from large families often have no choice, and sometimes even I am the same."

"I know..." Mu Wanqiu nodded.

hiss! ~
Jiang Chaoyang took a long puff of his cigarette, then suddenly held Chen Lu's finger behind him.

"In fact, even if there is a chance to save it, I don't plan to do it."

"Huh? What do you say?"

"Not everything can be salvaged. Chen Lu is pregnant."

When hearing Jiang Chaoyang's words, the person who was most surprised was not Mu Wanqiu, but Chen Lu herself.

As a home-grown child, she has always been well-behaved.

Because I have been brought up by the Jiang family since I was a child, and I have received the kindness and education from the Jiang family.

Therefore, Chen Lu has always been working for the Jiang family obediently and never made any excessive demands on Jiang Chaoyang.

But the person she always listens to is Jiang Lan, which is quite funny.

Jiang Chaoyang asked her to help him give birth to a child, and Chen Lu agreed without much hesitation.

After that, the two of them lived together legitimately.

But she had no official status and had never been made public by Jiang Chaoyang. Chen Lu herself didn't know what she meant to Jiang Chaoyang.

Mistress? Breeding machine? Or maybe a former secretary.

But she only found out about her pregnancy a few days ago. Her period hadn't come and the pregnancy test showed two bars.

I just haven't gone to the hospital for a check-up yet, so it's not 100% confirmed.

And I didn’t tell Jiang Chaoyang, so how did he know?
"Mr. Jiang, I didn't have time..." Chen Lu felt a little guilty at this time. She didn't hide it on purpose.

"No need to say more, I know what's going on."

"Forehead."

"Rest well while you are pregnant. You can hire two more servants to take care of household chores in the future."

Jiang Chaoyang's tone was still cold and gloomy, completely different from the relaxed and casual look he had in front of Ji Feng.

But when talking to Chen Lu, he held Chen Lu's fingers and did not let go.

For Chen Lu, this was probably the first time she received recognition in a real sense.

Mu Wanqiu glanced at the two people holding hands.

I felt a little helpless.

Is this dog food a must? Why do people show off their dog food everywhere?
"Is Sister Chen Lu pregnant? Congratulations! The new generation of the Jiang family is about to be born. This time, Brother Chaoyang is planning to let your child compete for the title of head of the family?"

When talking about his children, a smile finally appeared on Jiang Chaoyang's face.

"Of course, my son is better than Jiang Ming's useless son."

"What if it's a daughter?"

Jiang Chaoyang suddenly paused, his expression gradually calmed down:

"If it were a daughter, I would arrange a fund for her so that she would have no worries in her life."

"Don't you want to let your daughter have some adventure?"

"Too tired, you should know that better than me."

Mu Wanqiu nodded when she heard this. Yes, it was too tiring!
If Shen Ling had not laid the groundwork and prepared for twenty years, a daughter of the second wife like her would never have become the head of the family.

"Yes, if it's my eldest niece, it would be nice to live a life without worries..."

"I would definitely like a daughter, but I still hope to have a son. I can't win over Jiang Lan, so I can only hope that my son can stand up and take back what belongs to our family."

Jiang Chaoyang’s idea is quite simple, but for the Jiang family, as long as it does not involve the bottom line, this kind of competition is benign.

It can be said that the current situation of the Jiang family is indeed much better than that of the Mu family.

"Then you and Sister Chen Lu..."

Both of them understood what Mu Wanqiu meant, which was whether Jiang Chaoyang would marry Chen Lu and give this family a legitimate child.

But Jiang Chaoyang himself cannot answer this question now:

"I haven't decided yet. I want to go to Jinling for a stroll. Let's go for a stroll first."

"Going to Jinling?"

Jiang Chaoyang took out his broken cell phone and said with a smile:

“When Yang Hui and I were dating, we took a lot of photos of Nanjing and visited the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall.

But yesterday my phone was inexplicably restored to factory settings. Isn’t that a coincidence?"

Chen Lu lowered her head and didn't dare to speak at this time.

However, Mu Wanqiu, who rarely expressed her opinions at this time, or rather, lent a helping hand.

"Brother Chaoyang, maybe the reason they inexplicably restored the factory settings this time is because they want you to visit Jinling again."

"How to say?"

“Revisiting an old place is not like looking for a sword in a boat. When you go to a place you have been to in the past, people and yourself will be different, and new stories will emerge.”

"Ha, that's what I thought, sister!"

I don’t know if it’s because Mu Wanqiu confirmed her inner thoughts or confirmed that she has a child.

Jiang Chaoyang was in a better mood than before.

"Then I wish Brother Chaoyang a safe journey."

"Okay, Auntie has seen it, and I've told you about the fingertips. We've talked about it. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first!"

Jiang Chaoyang grabbed Chen Lu's hand and pulled her into his arms.

This was probably the rare tenderness he showed towards Chen Lu.

Watching Jiang Chaoyang and Chen Lu walking away, their figures becoming smaller and smaller, Mu Wanqiu suddenly called out:
"Brother Chaoyang, thank you."

"Heh, we're all brothers."

Mu Wanqiu smiled. She remembered that she had said the same thing to Ji Feng once upon a time.

You don't need too many friends, three or five buddies are good enough.

Drop drop!
The phone rang at this time. Mu Wanqiu looked at the phone, but was a little surprised at who was calling.

It turned out to be the monsoon.

"Hey, Monsoon, what's going on?"

When the call was connected, Mu Wanqiu's voice was steady, without any trace of abnormality.

This also made Ji Feng feel a little relieved.

Mu Wanqiu gave Zhijian a lot of help when the company was starting out, and the relationship between the two sides has always been good, and they can be considered good friends.

No one wants to make this friendship too dry.

So when Ji Feng heard that Mu Wanqiu's tone was no longer as complaining and angry as that day, he felt relieved:

"Mu Wanqiu, I know you are very busy these days and may not be able to leave.

But Onmyoji will be launched on January 1st, and as the largest shareholder of the project besides Fingertip Future itself, I think it is necessary to inform you. "

"Don't worry, I'll be there when the time comes."

"Okay, let's put it this way."

The conversation between the two was simple. After making the announcements, Ji Feng hung up the phone.

Then she called her assistant:
"Assistant Wu, please help me book a flight to Magic City."

After instructing Little Love Mouse, Mu Wanqiu looked back at Shen Ling's tombstone and gently stroked it for a moment:

"Mom, I'm about to embark on a new journey too."

……

2013年12月31日，11点55分。

The Fingertip official website is counting down to the final 5 minutes, just like the New Year’s Eve countdown on various media platforms and TV stations.

But those who are familiar with their fingertips know that this is not a New Year's Eve countdown.

Instead, it’s the countdown to the launch of new games at your fingertips.

Today, many people in Fingertip Company have not left work, and those who are working overtime at this time are not just the staff of Fingertip Future.

People who really can’t sleep…

It’s all the major friendly merchants!
11 points.

The door of Fingertip Company was suddenly pushed open, and a woman wearing a brown windbreaker, high heels and sunglasses walked in.

It was Mu Wanqiu, who was dressed in a casual professional style.

I have to say that Mu Wanqiu is still suitable for this kind of casual and elegant outfit, which is much better than the previous red suit.

"Monsoon, Wen Nuan, long time no see, is Brother Chaoyang here too?"

Mu Wanqiu took off his sunglasses, and the assistant beside him put down a bunch of milk tea drinks.

She is still as graceful and elegant as ever.

Ji Feng and Wen Nuan looked at each other and greeted each other at this time.

"Long time no see, Mu Wanqiu."

dong dong dong...

At this time, the clock struck 12.

"Onmyoji" is online.
