"It's good wine, but Brother Xu, you have to taste it only a little, otherwise I'm afraid Sister Jia will make things difficult for me in the company."
Chen Xu didn't refute, but made a joke with Xu Huanshan.
Chen Yu didn't say anything to spoil the mood, but joined in tasting the red wine.
Chapter 166: The Prodigal Son
Three years later
Jiamei Fireworks
"Hello Mr. Chen"
"Good morning, Mr. Chen"
Xu Huanshan is an excellent technical director, but he is not a qualified boss; a year ago, he was eager for quick success and took too big a step, which led to his failure.
Seeing that the company was about to go bankrupt, Chen Xu helped him to make up for the loss by injecting 3000 million yuan and holding % of the shares, which saved him from disaster.
From then on, the friendship between the two families deepened; but it was not appropriate for Chen Xu to continue driving for him; so, the driver Xiao Chen became the company's vice president Chen.
"Busy man, you still remember to go back to the company."
As I walked into the office, before I had time to drink a sip of water, Xu Huanshan came in.
"Brother Xu, I feel relieved that you and Sister Jia are looking after the company."
In three years, not counting the things in his portable space, Chen Xu's wealth has accumulated to 11 figures. He really doesn't care about Jiamei Fireworks' assets.
Something happened?
The legal representative of the company is Xu Huanshan, so he cannot be blamed if something goes wrong.
"Don't come on, I think you're just being lazy; you're traveling around the world under the guise of a business trip; last week your sister-in-law asked me for someone else."
Xu Huanshan really envied Chen Xu's life, which was free and unrestrained, and he could do whatever he wanted; but he also knew that this required capital, which he did not have.
"Brother, even though I'm traveling around, I'm not doing nothing. I got the order in Ningbo."
"The Ningbo order, the one from Fantawild? Their CEO Fang is notoriously difficult to deal with. Did you get him to do it?"
The fireworks industry's main service objects are amusement parks. Xu Huanshan had long been eyeing this newly opened amusement park in Ningbo, but he had no way to get started, so he never got started.
"I didn't get him, but I got his daughter. Mr. Fang isn't very good-looking, but his daughter is really pretty. We rode the roller coaster, pirate ship, Ferris wheel, and carousel in his amusement park, and left behind wonderful memories."
Chen Xu tilted his head and recalled.
"I'm going, and you're coming again; Chen Xu, Brother Xu, can you please be a decent person?"
After Chen Xu invested in Jiamei, Xu Huanshan had a lot more orders on hand, but problems also followed.
The female employees of the company were not at ease with their work and kept asking about Chen Xu. It was widely rumored in the industry that Xu Huanshan hired a male public relations officer who specifically targeted the female juniors of his clients.
He is also a man with a sense of dignity. What can he do every time he hears such rumors? He wants to cry but has no tears.
"Brother, what you said is too much; we are all adults, the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, it is normal for something happy to happen between us;
Besides, the person involved didn’t say anything, so just ignore the rumors out there and don’t take them too seriously.”
Chen Xu was used to Xu Huanshan's pretentiousness and didn't argue with him.
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you. But I have something to remind you. Your brother has returned from the Arshan Desert and is planning to settle accounts with you."
Xu Huanshan had figured out that in order to deal with Chen Xu, it would be Chen Yu who had to take action.
I am the good man, I am Chen Yu……
"Pfft, you're back. What do you want to settle with me?"
Chen Xu spat out the tea out of guilt, but he still wanted to act innocent.
"It has nothing to do with you. He is a TV station worker. He was sent to the Arxan Desert to fill in for a radio host. And that time is half a year?"
Xu Huanshan heard this from Gu Jia as a joke.
"Yes, there is a little relationship, but I didn't expect that the director of a TV station would be so stingy. It's just that I didn't go to his house for dinner."
It's easy to talk without any pain in the waist, Chen Xu said evasively.
"Okay, just tell your brother and see if he believes it."
Xu Huanshan likes to watch the fun without fear of trouble. What he wants to see most now is Chen Yu teaching his scumbag brother a lesson.
Although he said he didn't care, as soon as Xu Huanshan left the office, Chen Xu called Zhong Xiaoqin to get her opinion.
"Sister-in-law, I'm Chen Xu. I heard from Mr. Xu that my brother is back from a business trip. He is okay."
"Your brother is fine and in a good mood. He has been back for almost two months. But you are nowhere to be found when you are away on business. When will you return to Shanghai?"
Zhong Xiaoqin signaled Gu Jia beside her to keep quiet and started chatting with Chen Xu.
"I'm in Shanghai now. I came back yesterday."
Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Chen Yu was in a good mood.
"You're back in Shanghai. We haven't gotten together for a while. Why don't you come to our house for dinner today?"
Zhong Xiaoqin was just about to settle the score with Chen Xu for sending her husband to the Arxan Desert, leaving her alone for more than half a year, but she didn't expect that he would come to her door himself.
"Today? Today is too rushed, don't you ask my brother?"
Zhong Xiaoqin not only looks underage, but also looks a bit underage at heart, so Chen Yu is usually the one who makes the decisions on their family affairs, even small matters like inviting people to dinner.
"What's there to ask about a family meal? Just today, I'll tell your brother to take a day off so you can come over early."
Once Chen Xu disappeared, ten days or half a month was just a small matter, two or three months was the norm. Afraid that he would go away again, Zhong Xiaoqin spoke to him in kind words, expecting him to fall into her trap.
"Chen Xu?" After Zhong Xiaoqin hung up the phone, Gu Jia beside her asked.
"Well, this kid came to me on his own initiative. I must let his brother teach him a lesson."
After three years of hearing and seeing a lot, Zhong Xiaoqin also knew what kind of person her brother-in-law was.
He is a real scumbag who doesn't try to hide it. He is also the kind of bastard who is clearly a scumbag and has reasons to prove it.
"Chen Yu was sent to the Arshan Desert for a business trip for more than half a year. Was it really because of him?"
I have already heard Zhong Xiaoqin say this once, but this is really a bit dramatic, so Gu Jia asked another question.
"How could this be false? That woman is Chen Yu's immediate superior. Her uncle is the director of the TV station. After he knew about the affair between Chen Xu and her, he arranged to have dinner together at his house.
Chen Xu, this kid, promised in front of others, but turned around and disappeared. In the end, the blame was put on Chen Yu. What do you think of this?"
In front of Gu Jia, Zhong Xiaoqin spoke up for her husband.
"Well, Chen Xu is still young. It's normal for him to be scared when he heard that he was going to meet his parents. You said that woman is Chen Yu's immediate superior, so she must be a bit old, right?"
Thinking about Chen Xu's contribution to her company, Gu Jia helped him cover up.
"She should be in her thirties. Chen Yu calls her Sister Lu..."
Zhong Xiaoqin also understood what Gu Jia meant.
"The age gap between them is too big. They won't be happy if they force themselves to be together. In this case, it makes sense that Chen Xu refused to accompany her to meet his parents."
It was Gu Jia who persuaded others, and with just a few words, Zhong Xiaoqin was a little shaken.
"Gu Gu, although what you said makes sense, I always feel that this is Chen Xu's fault. Also, Chen Yu is innocent, why should he be the one to be blamed in the end?"
With her last bit of rationality, Zhong Xiaoqin retorted.
“Xiaoqin, I didn’t say Chen Xu’s behavior was right, I just told you that there are reasons why he behaves this way;
Also, tomorrow he'll go to your house for dinner, and if he really starts a fight with Chen Yu, you'd better not add fuel to the fire; they are brothers, and even if they are brothers, they are still connected. They will definitely make up after a few days of fighting. If you get involved, you'll be like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, neither a human being nor a human being. "
Fearing that her best friend might have a negative impact, Gu Jia gave her a shot of prevention.
"Well, what you said makes sense. I will just watch from the sidelines and not comment."
After listening to Gu Jia's words, Zhong Xiaoqin thought about it seriously and finally nodded.
Chapter 167 Passing the test
News Department of Shanghai TV
Ever since he learned from Lu Bing last week about her relationship with Chen Xu, Chen Yu has not had a single peaceful day.
When he was first sent to the Arxan Desert, he felt something was wrong; he was from the news department of a TV station, and he was going to fill in for a radio station's midnight host in Arxan, how could that be possible?
I am a good man, I am Chen Xu.
Although he has come back, Chen Yu still has the urge to kill someone when he thinks of that tragic experience.
I couldn't figure it out at first, but after hearing what Lu Bing said when I came back, I understood everything; I don't blame the leader for playing tricks on people, I can only blame my brother for being too pitiful.
Also, because of Chen Xu, his relationship with Lu Bing suddenly became a little awkward.
The people in the TV station are all shrewd. Someone in their team noticed the slightest change. Although they didn't say anything, the way they looked at him was different.
What could Chen Xu say about this? He couldn't just confess and expose Lu Bing's secrets. He had to swallow his anger. Now he knew what this meant.
I want a stable happiness that can withstand the cruelty of the end of the world...
The cell phone rang. A short absence is better than a new marriage. Because of Arshan’s long absence, he and Zhong Xiaoqin seemed to have returned to the time when they were married, and he answered the phone immediately.
"What, that bastard will come to dinner tonight, he dares to come back; OK, I get it, try to go back as early as possible..."
Although Chen Yu cursed harshly, he had no other good way to deal with his beloved younger brother. They were all adults, so he wouldn't beat him up.
"Chen Yu, come to my office..."
Lu Bing, who had just entered the door, saw Chen Yu answering the phone.
Bastard? I think he was talking about that bastard.
Under everyone's strange looks, Chen Yu walked into Lu Bing's office.
"Sister Lu, are you looking for me?"
To be honest, if Lu Bing hadn't revealed it herself, Chen Yu really wouldn't have thought that she, who was so dignified and noble, would be involved with her own brother, and in such an unclear relationship.
"Chen Yu, please sit down. You have been in Taiwan for five or six years..."
As Lu Bing spoke, she stood up and poured him a glass of water.
"Thank you, Sister Lu. I joined the station in 07. It's been almost 7 years."
Chen Xu took the cup and said, but did not sit down immediately.
"So you are also an old employee. In the first half of the year, you went to Arshan for the station and everyone saw your performance of rising to the challenge.
In one month, Lao Qian will retire; I helped you raise his deputy director position with the station yesterday, and the higher-ups agree. "
"Deputy director? My qualifications are not enough."
Chen Yu also knew that he was a bit dull and not very good at getting along with others. He never expected to get a job in the middle and leadership positions in the company.
"Promotions are based on performance and contribution, not seniority. I wouldn't be in my current position, so don't feel any psychological burden."
She couldn't afford to offend her sweetheart's elder brother Lu Bing, so she could only comfort him with kind words.
"Oh, thank you, Miss Lu, for the recommendation."
Because of his performance and contribution? Chen Yu is just dull, not stupid. Who is he trying to fool?
"Chen Yu, don't keep calling me Sister Lu. Do I look old?"
For a woman in her early thirties, it's different to have someone love her and to have no one love her. Lu Bing is indeed much younger and more beautiful than in the original drama.
"No no."
Seeing Chen Yu shaking his head in panic, Lu Bing was speechless. How could two brothers born to the same parents have such different personalities?
"I just heard you call. Xiaoxu is back in Shanghai?"
After chatting for a while, Lu Bing started to get to the point.
"Well, I just came back today."
I knew it, I knew it...
"Okay, that's it, go out and get busy."
Lu Bing breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Chen Xu had really returned. She was afraid that this bastard would just leave and never come back.
