"Uh..." Fang Zhicheng was speechless. Shen Qianshan might have such a reaction when he heard the news. "How about I explain it to him?"
Shen Wei snorted and said sarcastically, "How are you going to explain it? Are you going to tell him that it was you, the damned one, who deliberately seduced his innocent daughter and committed this immoral act?"
Fang Zhicheng scratched his head. He was in no mood to debate who seduced whom. He said awkwardly, "I am willing to take responsibility. You are carrying my child. I should take the responsibility instead of letting you bear all the pressure."
Shen Wei was silent for a while, and finally said: "Zhicheng, please forgive my willfulness. I know that I should respect your choice of giving birth to a child. But I really can't bear to give up him. Also, my father loves me very much. He is the person who loves me the most in this world, so no matter what mistakes I make, he will help me deal with them. Moreover, I didn't tell him who the real father of the child is, and he didn't ask."
Shen Wei knew that Fang Zhicheng did not want the child to be born, after all, Shen Wei was already a wife. If the child was born, how would Fang Zhicheng assume the responsibility of being a father? Fang Zhicheng had made a promise to Qin Yuming, and he could not make a promise to Shen Wei. Of course, Shen Wei did not need to make a promise herself. She was a woman who did whatever she wanted. She just did things according to her heart. If she wanted to have a child, then she would give birth to him.
Fang Zhicheng was still a little touched. Shen Wei transferred all the pressure to him. He sighed and said, "What does Brother Xiao say?"
Shen Wei said slowly: "I owe Xiao Qiang too much in this life, I can only repay him in the next life. After the child is born, I will take him back in the name of adoption, see if Xiao Qiang can accept it?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "He will know everything one day. Even if he accepts it, it will be against his will."
Shen Wei said, "Try to keep it a secret. All my attention is on the baby right now. After he is born, I will find an opportunity to tell him everything."
Fang Zhicheng didn't say much, and Xiao Qiang and Shen Wei's marriage was doomed to end.
Xiao Qiang paid a lot for love, but was betrayed in the end. This is not because Xiao Qiang didn't do well enough, but because he did too well. People have a tendency to be self-abuse. The better they treat themselves, the less they care.
After chatting with Shen Wei for a while, Fang Zhicheng hung up the phone, turned on his computer, and looked up some basic knowledge about pregnancy. Although it happened very suddenly, Fang Zhicheng was still a little excited, after all, he was going to be a father.
Fang Zhicheng was a little confused. Although he was very good at handling officialdom, he was still at a loss when faced with such a major matter.
Shen Wei's departure procedures were handled very quickly, and a week later, she was ready to fly from Yunhai to Switzerland. On the day of departure, Xiao Qiang accompanied Shen Wei to the security check. When Shen Wei's back was about to disappear, Xiao Qiang couldn't help but ask loudly: "Shen Wei, do you love me or not?"
This should be a question that women often ask men, but for a grown man to ask this question, you can imagine how helpless he feels.
Shen Wei was startled by Xiao Qiang's sudden question. She hesitated for a moment, waved her arms towards Xiao Qiang, and said with a smile: "Hubby, when I come back, I will call you often."
Shen Wei left, and Xiao Qiang stood there in a daze. Shen Wei's answer made him feel bitter.
Shen Wei didn't know how to answer. She actually had the answer in her heart: if she still loved someone, why would she fall in love with a second person
Love is selfish. After passing through security check, Shen Wei sat on the chair, tears streaming down her face for some reason.

Chapter 0532 The Biggest Winner of Urban Integration
Shen Wei went abroad. Recalling what happened with Shen Wei, Fang Zhicheng felt like he was in a dream. Being with this willful young woman, he could feel something unusual every moment. Shen Wei was willful and capricious, which also gave her a special temperament different from others. However, Fang Zhicheng still didn't expect that he had a child with Shen Wei, which caught him off guard. After all, an unborn little life came into this world because of him, and Fang Zhicheng must be responsible for him.
The bidding for the integration of Qionghan and Hankou has entered a critical moment. A total of five companies from across the country have submitted bids, among which Hongda Group is the most popular. Although the provincial government has strict requirements for bidding companies, Hongda Group still won the Qionghan integration project with a high score and became the biggest winner.
After Hongda Group won the project, it recruited eight powerful groups in the province with Hongda as the core and main body to jointly establish the Qiong-Han Integrated City Operator Alliance. The other eight groups either invested or contributed, and distributed equity and benefits according to the importance of the work undertaken.
Several other groups also fully saw the potential of the integration of Qiong and Han, and competed fiercely for resources. Eventually, the Liu and Zhu families became the second echelon, and the remaining six were in the third and fourth echelons.
Of course, Hongda Group is the leading party and also bears the greatest risk. It needs to bear the first batch of project funds of 2.5 billion yuan alone. Although Hongda Group has strong financial strength, such a large amount of funds will still have a great impact on the company's operations.
Zhao Min, the group's president, disagreed. She sat on the sofa, glanced at Zhao Qingya who was working, and reminded her, "Qingya, I think you are taking a bit too risky in this matter. The group's cash flow is in serious trouble now. In order to win this project, five commercial real estate projects will be affected and must be stopped."
Zhao Qingya raised her head, smiled and said to Zhao Min, "Aunt, I know my limits, but you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. The integration of Qiong and Han is the largest project of the provincial government in recent years. If Hongda Group does not actively strive for it, it will only benefit the Liu and Zhu families. Although our Zhao family's situation in the past two years is better than that of the Liu and Zhu families, we must prepare for a rainy day and snipe in advance, and not give them a chance to fight back."
Zhao Min sighed and said, "In the long run, the integration of Qiong and Han has unlimited potential, but within three to five years, a large amount of capital must be invested. I am afraid that after a long time, variables will appear."
Zhao Qingya waved her hand and said, "Aunt, I understand what you mean, but do you remember what grandma said? If you want your company to maintain steady growth, you have to pick the hardest bones to chew, because very difficult projects are not very replicable. As long as you maintain an absolute monopoly in a certain field, then it will be just around the corner to make the company bigger and stronger."
Zhao Min smiled bitterly and said, "Your ambition is quite big." She knew what Zhao Qingya meant. The integration of Qiong and Han was an attempt by Hongda Group to transform. When this project matures, Hongda Group may explore other urban areas. Zhao Qingya has a long-term vision, not only in Huainan, but also in the whole country.
Urban operation is still a blank field in China, and there are almost no experienced enterprises. Hongda Group has tried this field and become the first enterprise to take the plunge. If it can really succeed, it will inject strong vitality into the enterprise in the next few decades.
Zhao Qingya stood up and said, "The bubble in the real economy is too serious. In the past five years, Hongda Group has accumulated a lot of wealth by relying on commercial and residential real estate, but as the situation changes, the bubble will burst, so we must transform. The competition for real estate projects is too fierce now. There are not only many old real estate developers, but also many small developers in the local area, who are also very competitive. In third- and fourth-tier cities, our ability to obtain land is not as good as those developers with strength in the local area. So we must transform, take advantage of the opportunity that the industry has not collapsed yet, get involved in high-end urban planning and development, cooperate with the government, and take over not only real estate projects but also municipal projects. When a company is linked to a place, as long as the place is developing, the company will survive."
Zhao Min nodded and said with a smile, "My aunt is old now, and I can't see things as far as you can."
The advent of the European subprime mortgage crisis has affected all walks of life. Although the real estate industry is still doing well, people in the industry know that it is a short-lived industry and will eventually decline.
Zhao Qingya smiled and said, "The next step for Hongda Group is to take two steps. First, we will focus on promoting high-end urban development and become a powerful urban operator. Second, we will increase investment in light-asset operations on the Internet. The travel safety network we invested in before is now developing very well and has achieved profitability this year. After going public at the end of the year, we will be able to raise about 1.5 billion yuan in funds. The next step is to expand the scale. We plan to acquire a powerful e-commerce website, operate an online supermarket, and sell products nationwide."
Zhao Min used to have doubts about Zhao Qingya's development of e-commerce, because this was a field with no prospects at all two years ago. However, since the second half of last year, e-commerce has developed rapidly. Several top-ranked e-commerce companies have successfully listed, won the favor of capital, and maintained strong competitiveness in the securities market. This is why Zhao Qingya is still preparing to list Travel Safety Network even though the stock market is sluggish.
Zhao Min sighed: "I admire my mother so much. She was right to choose you. I am not as good as you in vision."
Zhao Qingya smiled and said, "Aunt, if you weren't here, how could a junior like me control the situation?"
Zhao Min said, "Qingya, I have a question. What is your relationship with Fang Zhicheng? At the beginning, your grandmother approved of this boy. If you want to get married, you should hurry up. After all, you are not young anymore."
Zhao Qingya didn't expect Zhao Min to bring up this matter suddenly. She smiled bitterly and said, "Aunt, I haven't thought about the relationship yet. Let's take it one step at a time."
Zhao Min shook her head and said, "In the group, you are the chairman and I am the president. I must accept your leadership, but within the family, I am your aunt and you must listen to me. Since you and he can't make up your mind, then you can only let me intervene. In a few days, I will go to Hanzhou and ask him in person, okay?"
Zhao Qingya waved her hands quickly and said with a wry smile: "Aunt, I know you are doing this for my own good, but please respect me. I know my limits when it comes to emotional matters."
Zhao Min knew that she couldn't persuade Zhao Qingya. She had gone to Yinzhou and stayed alone for many years for a man. If she was really provoked, Zhao Min would not make her do something extreme again. "Okay. You and your brother are both excellent, but it's a pity that you are too unhappy in your personal lives."
