Chapter 129: Chapter 122: Temporary Madam
The subsidiary company of the Yin Family in Chengdu is called Yirui Technology.
It’s not large in scale, but it’s quite well-known in Chengdu.
When Yin Shixiu brought Su Xiaomeng into the elevator, the employees who accidentally bumped into them were startled.
For one thing, no one knew about the marriage of the head of the headquarters!
Secondly, the head’s wife’s belly is so big! But she seems so young...
"President Yin, who is this...?"
After the elevator door closed, the general manager of Yirui Technology couldn’t resist his curiosity and asked tentatively.
His surname is Tang, a man about the same age as Yin Shixiu.
"My wife."
"Ah, hello Madam President!"
Su Xiaomeng tugged at Yin Shixiu’s sleeve, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
"This is General Manager Tang, responsible for Yirui."
Yin Shixiu didn’t care about her discomfort and directly made the introduction.
Su Xiaomeng pressed her lips together, slightly nodding to Tang Qin, "Hello."
After exchanging greetings, she tightened her grip on Yin Shixiu’s sleeve again.
"There are too many eyes and ears in this company; things that shouldn’t be discussed should be kept quiet by the people below."
"President Yin, you can rest assured about that!"
Tang Qin finished speaking, the elevator door opened, and Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng entered the office.
The office isn’t large, but it has a reasonably comfortable leather sofa.
Yin Shixiu came to Chengdu unexpectedly, so Tang Qin cleared his own office for him.
It’s cleaned very tidily, and the tabletop is almost spotless.
Tang Qin placed the meeting materials on the desk before leaving the office.
Once the door closed, Su Xiaomeng spoke uneasily, "What are you doing?"
"What’s wrong?"
"It’s just... just... about the Madam President thing..."
"Aren’t you?"
"I... I’m just temporarily; you’ve let these folks know, so when we part ways in the future, won’t it be awkward?"
Su Xiaomeng scratched her head, not understanding Yin Shixiu’s thoughts.
Yin Shixiu glanced at her, then started flipping through the meeting materials.
"Why aren’t you saying anything?"
"I didn’t think that much, just afraid you’d get lonely staying home alone."
Su Xiaomeng licked her lips, momentarily unsure what to say...
It seems she might be overthinking.
Yin Shixiu looked up, "What you’re worried about won’t happen; besides Tang Qin, no one knows you’re the Madam President."
"Tang Qin is a smart person; he won’t let subordinates gossip about the boss’s private affairs. The reason for introducing you to Tang Qin is just in case you need something and come to the company to find me, someone can look after you."
"...That’s all?"
"What else?"
Yin Shixiu withdrew his gaze, put the materials back in the file bag, then stood up and walked over to her, rubbing her hair, "Play with your phone, watch a movie; the meeting will probably last two hours."
"...Oh."
Yin Shixiu strode out.
Su Xiaomeng leaned on the sofa, puffing her cheeks, lost in thought for a while.
Though he said two hours, the meeting lasted until four o’clock.
Su Xiaomeng took a nap on the sofa.
When Yin Shixiu returned, she blinked at him...
"So long..."
Yin Shixiu chuckled lightly, took her hand, "Alright, let’s go home."
Though Yin Shixiu said he brought her to the company for fear she would be lonely, after Su Xiaomeng spent an afternoon alone in the office, she really couldn’t agree with Yin Shixiu’s reasoning.
The same loneliness, just in a different place.
But Su Xiaomeng didn’t ask.
Usually, the things Yin Shixiu does, she rarely understands the meaning behind them.
But this move today is not just Yin Shixiu acting on a whim.
Yirui Technology, although independently founded by him, is located in Chengdu, while he has been based either in Beijing or London for years.
Thus, for a long time past, Yirui was managed by Yu Hongguang, his second brother-in-law.
His arrival at Yirui would surely be first known by Yu Hongguang.
Yu Hongguang appears honest and simple, but in truth, he loves stirring up trouble.
Yin Shixiu’s fallout with the family is most enjoyable for him.
And he is sure that upon learning of his actions, Yu Hongguang will immediately report every detail to the elders of the Yin Family.
Knowing his mother, this time indeed left her heartbroken.
The cold heart may really not question his matters with Su Xiaomeng.
And that’s not what he wants.
So using others’ mouths to occasionally report their situation to the elders is the most necessary thing.
Yin Shixiu’s mind is very complex, and he is very cautious.
Compared to him, Su Xiaomeng is straightforward and simple-minded.
After the two returned home, it was dinner time, but as soon as they went upstairs and were about to open the door, they heard an unfriendly argument from inside.
Su Xiaomeng frowned as soon as she heard the noise!
Yin Shixiu vaguely recalled the shrill and affected voice of the woman and the overconfident voice of the middle-aged man.
"Chengji, don’t put your brother in a difficult position. Brother really has no other options... Even among blood brothers, you need to settle accounts clearly, don’t you think?"
Su Xiaomeng wanted to push the door open directly, but Yin Shixiu held her back, letting her not enter...
The living room of the Su Family is not small, but with four middle-aged adults standing inside, it seemed crowded.
Su’s mother stood aside, her face cold.
Faced with this arrogant couple, Su’s mother never showed any kindness.
If it wasn’t for Su Chengji already allowing Su Jianyi and Zhou Wenxiu inside before she returned, she certainly would have found various reasons to turn them away.
Su Chengji frowned and clicked his tongue after a long while, "Brother Jianyi, that’s not the proper way to say things. These over thirty acres of land under Third Uncle’s name were given to my brother more than ten years ago. Now that my brother is just seeing some progress with the vegetable base, taking it back doesn’t make sense."
"My father only temporarily handed the acres over to your brother for management, not as a gift. The property rights are still in my father’s hands."
Su Jianyi quickly said.
"If that’s the case, you should go to Third Uncle. As long as Third Uncle decides to take it back, we absolutely will not argue!"
Su’s mother raised an eyebrow and sneered.
"Little Sister Bai, Dad is already so old. Do you think he would bring this up?"
Zhou Wenxiu looked at Su’s mother, appearing puzzled.
"Since the elder is not planning to mention it, why are you shouting here?"
"Who are you accusing of shouting?!"
Su’s mother spoke aggressively, immediately raising Zhou Wenxiu’s arrogance, "I know these years, Jianyi and I have been thriving outside; you are all jealous, I understand. Originally, we didn’t care about these acres, but everyone has moments of difficulties. Jianyi is an honest man who neither embezzles nor engages in corruption, and the national salary is just that little amount."
Su’s mother instantly snorted disdainfully.
Zhou Wenxiu furrowed her brows, originally wanting to curse back, but later held it back, continuing, "Our Hao Hao is studying alone abroad, and the expenses are not just one or two."
Su Jianyi looked at Su Chengji, "Chengji, all these years it’s always been Chenggong taking care of Dad, but who, in the end, receives the living expenses that I give Dad every month, you all know clearly."
"Su Jianyi, if you want to talk rubbish, don’t do it in my house."
Su’s mother’s voice dropped a notch.
"White-named one, how dare you speak like this?"
Zhou Wenxiu originally didn’t see eye to eye with Su’s mother, the setup was such that they might start fighting.
"Third Uncle only has you as his son. You live the high life outside with your wife and kids, leaving your old father home alone, and this counts as great?"
Su Chengji stared directly at Su Jianyi, deeply inhaled and then sighed out, "When I got married, the eight acres of land Third Uncle gave me, I will give to you, don’t go and bother my brother."
"Hehe, Su Chengji, at crucial times you really know how to calculate, huh? Exchanging eight acres for thirty-two acres? Not stupid, huh!"
Zhou Wenxiu said sarcastically, rolling her eyes at Su Chengji.
"Alright, Wenxiu, stop talking."
Su Jianyi said seriously, pulling Zhou Wenxiu.
Zhou Wenxiu turned aside, snorting lightly.
"Chengji, Little Sister Bai, I’ve come abruptly to discuss with you and you might be uncomfortable, I understand, but Li Hao abroad indeed needs a lot of money, your brother taking care of my dad, which I am very thankful for, but over the years, the benefits these acres have brought really count as compensation, don’t they?"
"Directly talking to Father is not impossible, but even if Father wants to take it back, he would feel bad telling Chenggong, wouldn’t he?"
"So today, Wenxiu and I came over to propose this as the bad guys on behalf of Father. Hope you can negotiate well with brother."
Su’s mother quietly watched the well-dressed Su Jianyi.
He was no doubt a political person, speaking nicely.
"If brother wants compensation, it’s negotiable."
"Even if you don’t directly talk to Third Uncle, you should approach Su Chenggong, coming to our house and letting Chengji mention it, why?"
"Little Sister Bai, you and Chengji are at least educated, with some literacy. This Su Chenggong doesn’t know enough big words, if I reason with him, would he understand?"
These words really made both Su’s mother and Su’s father furious.
Despising their brother for being uneducated, huh?
"Su Jianyi, I strongly advise—"
Competing on who speaks more sharply, Su’s mother really doesn’t think she would lose, but she was stopped before she could finish by Su Chengji.
"Brother Jianyi, you need money, right? If you take back these acres, you will either rent or sell them to others, if my brother buys these acres from you, is that acceptable?"
Su Chengji rarely spoke earnestly, without a smile.
"This..." Su Jianyi and Zhou Wenxiu exchanged a glance, then said, "If Chenggong is willing to buy, that would be best. It saves everyone trouble."
Su’s mother closed her eyes, thinking, saving trouble? The purpose of this couple’s visit is just this!
Su Chengji actually understood inside, but wasn’t angry, only asked, "Then how much do you plan to sell per acre?"
"We’re all one family, the price will surely be reasonable. After discussing with Brother Chenggong, if he can accept, then let’s discuss the price—"
"Can you not beat around the bush? Just say how much, okay?"
"Three thousand."
