"Have I lost weight?" Xia Lei never felt that he had lost weight. In fact, his weight had always been stable and he had never lost weight at all.
Shentu Tianyin said with a smile: "I'm not sure, maybe it's because I haven't seen you for a long time. I feel like you are thinner than before. Is it because you are too tired from work? Or... you have too many wives. reason?"
Xia Lei was speechless.
Under normal circumstances, how can one man cope with five women, but not only can he meet the needs of five women, he even has the upper hand, so that his women work together to deal with it. But when such words came out of Shentu Tianyin's mouth, it had a different flavor. She was the kind of woman who hardly joked, let alone said such nasty words. But here in Xia Lei, she dares to joke and say anything.
After all, they are a couple. They have loved each other and understand each other. Now when they sit together, it is easy to find the warm and ambiguous feeling they had at the beginning.
"Uh, I'm sorry, I'm not your wife now, so I can't just say whatever I want. You don't have to answer my question," Shentu Tianyin said.
Isn't this a disguised attempt to get him to answer questions? Xia Lei smiled bitterly and said, "I have lived a very fulfilling life during this period. I work in the company every day and go home to put my children to bed at night."
Shentu Tianyin was silent for a moment before saying, "Are you happy?"
Xia Lei nodded, "I'm very happy. They and the children are doing well. I cherish everything I have now. What about you, how are you doing?"
Shentu Tianyin smiled bitterly, "Do you think I'm doing well? I can't forgive myself, and you... it's too late to say anything now."
She divorced him, and now Xia Lei is the husband of five women and has four children. She could no longer reconcile with him and return to her old life.
The atmosphere in the office became awkward.
"Haha." Xia Lei laughed dryly, "Let's talk about something else. I saw that Wanxiang Group's performance in the U.S. stock market was pretty good, and it has now reached 12 US dollars. I still have more than one billion US dollars in hand. The shares of Vientiane Group have made a little fortune with you."
Shentu Tianyin, however, looked straight at Xia Lei, "How long do you want to lie to me?"
Xia Lei was slightly stunned, "What?"
"I know it was you who helped me and helped Wanxiang Group go through the most difficult period. The reason Wanxiang Group's shares in the U.S. stock market rose is because of your secret help, isn't it?"
"So that's what you're talking about." Xia Lei smiled, "As far as I'm making money in the U.S. stock market, it's better to be yours than to be someone else's stock, don't you think? After all, we are friends."
"Are they just friends?" Shentu Tianyin's eyes flashed with sadness.
Xia Lei could understand her eyes, but he didn't know what to say.
"Why are you so nice to me? I betrayed you. Even in that situation, you still gave me a chance to choose. But between you and Wanxiang Group, I chose Wanxiang Group. You should hate me, Why are you still so nice to me?"
Xia Lei smiled bitterly, "I can actually understand you. Under such circumstances, I will take the blame and the country will not do anything to me. But if it punishes you, it may be the death penalty or life imprisonment. After all, The amount involved in the case is too large. I gave you that choice. You chose Wanxiang Group because it is the hard work of your father and you, and it is part of your lives... "
Shentu Tianyin suddenly interrupted Xia Lei, "You still have me in your heart, right?"
Does he still have a place for Shentu Tianyin in his heart
Does he still love Shentu Tianyin
Xia Lei really hadn't thought about this question, and now that he was suddenly faced with this question, he really couldn't answer it. After he divorced Shentu Tianyin, he was romantic and happy, with a group of lovely wives, a group of children, and a confidante like Tsukino Kyoko, and his sexual happiness index was through the roof. But what about Shentu Tianyin? But she keeps herself clean and doesn't even have a rumored boyfriend, let alone a real boyfriend. As for her, with her beauty and status, there will definitely be many men pursuing her. I can't even count the number of men who have a crush on her and want her.
Therefore, for him, divorce may be a relief, lifting him from a happy state to a higher happy state. But for Shentu Tianyin, it was just loneliness, loneliness and pain.
"There is no one else here, let alone your wife, so can't you tell me the answer? This is very important to me." Shentu Tianyin said.
Xia Lei sighed, "Tianyin, why are you doing this? What can you do if you know the answer? You should..."
"What should I do?"
"You should forget me, find a man who loves you and love you, and live the rest of your life happily. You deserve such happiness, and you shouldn't live in the past." Xia Lei said. I don't know why, but saying this made him feel a little sad.
For a man, it is not a pleasant feeling to let the woman he loves deeply be with another man. However, this is his mind, broad and generous. He has a group of darling wives, enjoys all the beauty and family happiness. He can't occupy other people's hearts, or even their bodies, otherwise they should live a happy life, right? That would be very selfish.
"Okay, then you can help me introduce one." Shentu Tianyin said.
"Shall I introduce it to you?" Xia Lei couldn't laugh or cry, "I..."
Shentu Tianyin interrupted Xia Lei again, "But I have one condition, it must be the same as yours."
"Same?" Xia Lei didn't understand what her "same" standard was for a while.
"Yes, the same." Shentu Tianyin added her criteria, "Same height, same weight, same face, same eyes. You know, I'm always fascinated by your eyes. Also, also I wish you were so capable."
Xia Lei, "..."
"I am Shentu Tianyin. I either don't want it. If I want a man, then I want the best man in the world. My ex-husband is an unparalleled hero. If I marry again, will I marry an ordinary person?" Shentu Tianyin's eyes were hot.
Just from the look in her eyes, Xia Lei could tell that she had never forgotten him and she still loved him deeply. He could even understand her standards because she was Shentu Tianyin, the queen of the Wanxiang Group. She should be one of the most proud women in the world. The man who can conquer her is right in front of her, but no one else can.
However, once you miss some people and things, it is difficult to look back.
"Well..." Xia Lei smiled awkwardly, "Let's not talk about this. Don't you want to see my child? I'll take you there."
The sadness in Shentu Tianyin's eyes became even stronger.
But just when Xia Lei stood up, Qin Xiang suddenly appeared at the door, with a nervous look on his face, "Old Xia, it's not good."
In the Thunder Horse Group, only Qin Xiang dared to call Xia Lei "Lao Xia" and "Baby".
Xia Lei stood up, "What happened?"
"Your wife group is here!" Qin Xiang looked back and said, "They're already at the top of the stairs! I got out of the way first because I came here to report the news! Remember to treat me to dinner later!"
Before Xia Lei could say a word, Qin Xiang dodged and walked towards the stairs on the other side of the corridor. As soon as he stepped forward, there was a unique sound of high heels hitting the ground and the sound of the wheels of a stroller rolling in the corridor.
The ladies' group suddenly arrived, and Xia Lei, who had done nothing wrong, felt guilty for no reason.
Shentu Tianyin's reaction was very calm. She seemed to have changed after Qin Xiang appeared, from a gentle, intellectual and delicate woman to an aloof, cold and arrogant queen. She calmly took out an envelope from her handbag and said to Xia Lei, "Director Xia, let's talk business."
"Huh?" Xia Lei couldn't help being stunned.
Four women walked in from the office door, one of them was pushing a stroller, and there was also a beautiful and cute child sitting in each stroller.
Liang Siyao was the first to say, "What a coincidence, Miss Shentu, you are here too."
Shentu Tianyin nodded slightly, "Siyao, long time no see, hello." Then, she politely greeted Fanfan, Long Bing and Jiang Ruyi.
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Why are you here?"
Fanfan said: "I'm not your precious daughter yet. She asked for a father, so I brought her to see you. Your daughter is the one who loves you the most."
As soon as Fanfan finished speaking, Xia Fan said, "I don't want my father. He has no milk to give me."
Xia Lei was petrified.
Shentu Tianyin said in surprise: "You can speak at such a young age? And you still have such clear thinking?"
Fanfan said: "She has his father's genes, so of course she is very smart."
This actually goes beyond the category of "smart", and Fanfan knows this very well.
Shentu Tianyin's eyes swept across the four children, with a strange light shining in his eyes. She had also dreamed of giving birth to her and Xia Lei's child, but this wish had never been realized. Now, seeing that Xia Lei's children with other women were so good, how could she not be moved by the scene
"Miss Shentu, why did you come here today?" Liang Siyao said.
Shentu Tianyin finally came back to her senses, and she said: "Well, Wanxiang Group has a mine in Nigeria. That mine used to mine barite, and the output was very small, so I didn't care. But this time Our geologists discovered a very special metal in that mine, probably a rare metal."
"Rare metals?" Xia Lei was a little surprised, but it wasn't just some rare metal mine in Nigeria, but Shentu Tianyin actually had an official purpose.
Shentu Tianyin said: "Yes, it's a rare metal, and it's a metal that has never been found before. Our experts haven't even given it a name yet, and don't know much about its physical properties, but one thing is certain. "..." After a pause, she said: "Our experts said that rare metal can absorb electromagnetic waves."
Xia Lei's heart skipped a beat, "Do you have a sample of that rare metal? Show it to me."
"Yes, in the company." Shentu Tianyin said.
"I am now..." Xia Lei was about to say, "I will go to your company with you now," but before he could say this, he saw the four lovely wives staring at him. Swallowed what he wanted to say.
"This matter should be reported to the country." Fanfan said, "This is a major matter, and it must be kept secret. Don't let Nigerian officials know about it too early."
Shentu Tianyin said: "It is certain to report it to the country, but that area is currently in war, and I cannot mine that rare metal by myself. There is one more thing I want to say. Four Americans came yesterday. Someone who claims to be a global mining company wants to buy that mine from me."
For some reason, Xia Lei suddenly remembered the information he had obtained before, saying that several dangerous people from the United States had entered the country. He didn't care about this matter, but now that he heard Shentu Tianyin say that four Americans came to her to buy Wanxiang Group's mining farm in Nigeria from her, he suddenly remembered this matter.
