Mr. Sun once opened a small company, which was doing well, and his family lived a comfortable life. But once he had money, he found that it was never enough. Even though he earned more than before, he was still at the bottom of the social circle. Out of a man's self-esteem, he started to hang out with those so-called "friends" and talk about investing in stocks and other issues. Listening to those people talking about the millions and tens of millions of assets coming in and out, Mr. Sun felt as if he had a different identity and could no longer work steadily.
He started investing under the guidance of his friends, but after several failed investments, the company's performance declined. He also had conflicts with his wife because of his mistress outside. He felt that everything was going wrong, so he played more aggressively and went out to M City to gamble with his friends. When he sobered up, he found that he had owed a lot of gambling debts.
Then the company went bankrupt. Every day people came to collect debts. He dared not turn on his phone. In despair, Mr. Sun got such an opportunity. As long as he killed someone, his family would get a sum of money, at least to get through this most difficult period. He regretted countless times, regretted gambling, even the moment he hit someone with his car, he felt regret, but this time he regretted giving up his life. He didn't want to die.
But it is often so strange that when you want to die, you can't die, and when you don't want to die, death comes suddenly.
At the moment before his death, Mr. Sun thought that fortunately his mistress and wife were taken care of, and when they received the money, they would be able to raise his two sons well.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that because the two million promised by his wife had not arrived, his wife also discovered the one million he had previously given to his mistress, and now the two of them were arguing.
Chunyu Xi didn't do much. He just told Ms. Wang that her husband had given the money to his mistress. Ms. Wang never came to the hospital to trouble Guo Rong again. She used her ruthlessness on her mistress and her son, but the mistress was no pushover either. The two women fought each other so fiercely that Guo Rong had basically no chance.
"This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Sun who hit someone. I investigated his family background, information, and friends, and found that he has no contact with you. But I found out that the small company he opened had once cooperated with the Li Group." Chun Yuxi followed this connection and found the previous contacts between Mr. Sun and a secretary assistant of Li Ye.
In this era of ubiquitous surveillance, many secrets are no longer secrets. As long as something is done, there will be traces. Even if there is no definite evidence yet, Chunyu Xi is almost certain that this matter is related to Li Ye.
"He dared to mess with my mother! Let's sue him!" Guo Qian made a statement very enthusiastically.
Chun Yuxi pushed up his glasses and said, "Unfortunately, we don't have enough evidence at the moment. Even if we sue, it probably won't lead to any results. After all, it's the Li family, and they are very powerful."
"So, we have to wait for him to make a move." Chun Yuxi looked at Guo Qian, who looked unhappy, and then at Guo Rong, who looked thoughtful, and asked for her opinion, "Guo Rong, what do you think?"
Guo Rong said slowly, "I think... I should buy insurance. What is the maximum amount of personal accident insurance that can be purchased? In case something happens to me, my son will not be left with nothing."
Guo Qian said angrily: "I am not the kind of man who only cares about money. What's the use of having more money? I don't care about money!"
Guo Rong: "Why are you so arrogant? Do you still remember the boss in the game who licked his boots for 500 yuan?"
Guo Qian choked: "Mom, don't mention the past anymore. My dad now pays me more than you do!"
Guo Rong: "I advise you not to ask for salary. You and your father have a father-son relationship, which makes him biased towards you and pay you more. As for me, I am just a poor injured person. I have no salary during the recovery period. I can't take paid leave. Do you know?"
Chun Yuxi didn't know why the mother and son would go off topic in the middle of a conversation, going so far off topic that they couldn't be pulled back. He knocked on the table and said, "What was the issue we were discussing before? The boss is still sitting here and you're blatantly complaining about your salary?"
"I gave you a special subsidy for sick meals, and I didn't ask you to pay for your medical treatment. What else are you dissatisfied with as your boss?" Chunyu Xi said.
Guo Rong immediately knelt down and started to talk nonsense: "Satisfied, satisfied, I am super satisfied. Where can I find such a good boss? If you are willing, I can get a marriage certificate with you immediately, without saying a word! I am just an ordinary employee expressing my jealousy towards a colleague who has received special treatment. I have absolutely no intention of targeting you, boss. Look, I swear to heaven!"
She tried to raise her injured hand, but Chunyu Xi pushed her back.
"Don't move. If you move, you'll have to put on plaster again next time!" Chunyu Xi raised his voice slightly, thinking about the nonsense that Guo Rong had just said.
Guo Rong stopped moving. She had adjusted her position before because of her movement, but it was so painful that she didn't dare to do it again.
Guo Qian: "I agree with my mother's proposal just now."
Guo Rong was confused. "What suggestion? The one about buying insurance?"
Guo Qian: "No, it's the one who will get the marriage certificate with my dad soon."
Chun Yuxi pinched his brows, raised his voice slightly, and shouted: "Guo Rong!"
Guo Rong: "That's not right, you should shout 'Guo Qian!'"
Chun Yuxi: "I'm calling you. Whatever dirty talk you say, bring Guo Qian along with it!"
Guo Rong: "Okay, okay, don't get excited yet. Seriously, boss, I've noticed that you get easily excited recently. Are you too nervous?"
Back then, the boss was a noble and elegant beauty, and her every frown and smile was so gentle that water could drip out of it. But ever since she was injured, the boss became more and more irritable when he came to accompany her, and he would call her name at every turn.
"Guo Rong, I told you not to pick at the plaster, what are you doing with your hands now?"
"Guo Rong, be careful, the soup has spilled on the plaster! My God, can't you just not drink the soup when your hands are shaking from laughing at the show? Forget it, just let go and let me do it."
"Guo Rong! Get up! Stop pretending to be dead! The nurse is waiting to rub your back!"
like this.
Chun Yuxi: "I really want to be a gentle beauty, but have you ever given me a chance?"
Guo Rong knew what was going on and closed the microphone.
After staying in the hospital for a while, Guo Qian went home to recuperate. Because she was obviously naughty, Chun Yuxi had to hire an aunt to take care of her. This aunt has been helping Chun Yuxi clean and tidy up the house. She is not talkative and not as enthusiastic and nagging as other aunties, but she is efficient and a very cool aunt.
Guo Rong was asked many times about her relationship with Chunyu Xi. She thought she would have to deal with another person this time, but the other person didn't ask at all. After coming over, he started cleaning for her, preparing meals for her, and even took a small notebook to write down her taste preferences.
Not only does she work efficiently, but the dishes she cooks are also delicious, a homely taste that Guo Rong has not seen for a long time. After several days of this interaction, this cool auntie finally talked to Guo Rong more.
"I can tell people's fortunes. Sometimes, after I finish my work at my employer's house, I like to set up a stall in Haining Park and tell people's fortunes when I have nothing to do." This is the aunt's answer when asked about her hobbies.
Guo Rong was stunned. No, Auntie, your answer is too unconventional. Generally speaking, hobbies like flower arranging or hand-knitting are common. What's the point of palm reading
"Give me one? How much does it cost for a fortune-telling?" Guo Rong became interested.
The aunt glanced at her and said, "Forget it, I'll show it to you once for free. But I'm not very knowledgeable, so I'll only tell you what I've seen, and I won't answer your questions."
It was free anyway, so Guo Rong didn't complain. She was just bored and wanted to listen to the aunt's performance.
The aunt looked at her face and her hands carefully, asked about her date of birth, etc., and then told her clearly, "You will get married in three months."
"Huh? Me? Getting married?" Guo Rong laughed and waved his hands a few times, totally disbelieving her words. "Impossible, who would I marry?"
Auntie was very cool, she adjusted her apron and said, "Let's talk about it in three months."
Guo Rong didn't take it seriously and kept pestering her aunt to chat with her. She couldn't sit still for long at home. It was difficult to play games with one left hand. She was so bored that she almost died. She wanted to chat with everyone she saw. Not only her aunt, but also Guo Qian who came home from school and Chun Yuxi who came back from get off work to visit her were annoyed by her.
"If you don't control your behavior, I may take some measures against your situation tomorrow." Chunyu Xi refused to chat with her.
Guo Rong never missed an opportunity to chat, "What measures?"
Chunyu Xi got up and left. The next morning, he got up, dragged Guo Rong, who was recuperating at home, and pushed her to the company in a wheelchair, where he placed her among his colleagues.
"Okay, if you want to talk, talk to them."
It turned out that the trouble was diverted to someone else! Guo Rong wheeled her wheelchair around her colleagues' workstations, and after joining in the fun, she really stopped bothering her son and his father. In order to prevent her from being so bored that she would remove the plaster on her foot, Chun Yuxi found a game for her, where she could only use her left hand and twelve keys to control a small ball to walk through a maze. Although it was a simple game, it had a strange attraction. Guo Rong almost became obsessed with it, and her left hand would subconsciously press buttons even when she was not playing the game.
"I feel my left hand is stronger now, and once I recover, I feel my career will go further," Guo Rong said.
Chun Yuxi was in front of the computer and suddenly exhaled, "Don't think about it yet, something has happened."
Guo Rong wheeled over and asked, "What's going on? Is there a bug in the game again?"
Chun Yuxi: "No, it's Li Ye who's causing trouble again. A friend of mine told me that Li Ye did a paternity test at his place, and I felt it was wrong so I looked for some ways. I just got the news that he found a lawyer who doesn't have a good reputation in the industry but is very capable, and it seems that he is preparing to sue you."
Guo Rong: "… to steal my son?"
Chun Yuxi: "Yes, it's about the custody of the child."
Guo Rong was puzzled: "What is he thinking about?"
Li Ye was thinking that it was not advisable to keep the relationship with the heroine this way, and he had to start with the child. He thought that now that Guo Rong was a single mother who had been injured in a car accident, she needed someone to rely on, so he could fight with her for the custody of the child, and then break through her psychological defenses, and promise her that he could take care of them in the future. With both soft and hard tactics, Guo Rong would definitely give in.
Guo Rong was still thinking "WTF?" when Chun Yuxi suddenly said, "I think you might consider marrying me."
Guo Rong: “What?” What’s going on
